Chapter 919: Forcing Him to Take a Concubine? I
The other guests were astonished and their voices became loud and clear.
“Manor Master, are you saying that what the old master is holding in his hand is spirit water?”
“Spirit water from the spirit spring? Isn’t it very effective in aiding the cultivator to make a faster breakthrough? The spirit water is a holy item from heaven. It’s something that can only be found by chance.”
They might have rushed forward to fight for the spirit water if Gu Shi was not there or if the old master of the Mu family was not the one possessing the spirit water.
Mu Ling was stunned. Soon, he lowered his eyes and stared at the jade bottle in the old master’s hand. His breathing grew quick and short. He was rather excited.
The old master was a part of the Mu family. His strength was weaker now and he could not have the spirit water. Even if he was able to do so, he could only drink some of it without finishing the spirit water. The remaining spirit water would surely be his possession given that he was the master of the Mu family.
“What do you want?” The old master anxiously held onto the jade bottle in his hand. He was vigilant. “My daughter-in-law has given it to me. No one can snatch it away from me. If anyone dares to do that, I’ll ask the butler to beat them up!”
The butler who was nearby was speechless.

Chen Qingyan’s face darkened. She clenched her fists tightly.
She had actually wanted to embarrass Suyi in front of everybody. But, she never thought that she herself was the one being defeated. She could not accept the truth.
Besides, both Mu Xi and Mu Huan did not feel as much as Chen Qingyan. They felt that they would be able to share the spirit water given that the spirit water now belonged to the Mu family.
Qin Fei’er did not say a word since Feng Ruqing and Nan Xian had appeared.
Her fair complexion paled. It seemed that life had drained from her body.
She stared at Nan Xian in great pain. It was a deep sadness. She appeared to have been wronged and was deeply hurt.
Her mother told her before that Suyi only treated Feng Ruqing as her daughter rather than her daughter-in-law.
It was ridiculous when she had just seen what happened in front of her.
Nan Xian was always a filial son. If he listened to Mu Ling and took a concubine, he would definitely listen to Suyi too.
It was not so bad if Nan Xian’s wife was Gu Yiyi. But, that awful woman would be his wife instead.
Wen Yu held Qin Fei’er’s trembling hands. She looked at her own daughter, her heart aching.
“Fei’er, we’re at the Mu family. Don’t say anything now. Let’s see how Young Master Mu deals with it. He will surely give us an appropriate explanation.”
Qin Fei’er bit her lower lip. She lowered her head and hid the sadness in her eyes.
The Mu family would be responsible to her.
But, Young Lady Mu claimed that Feng Ruqing was her daughter-in-law.
Did they want Qin Fei’er to give in to allowing Feng Ruqing to be Nan Xian’s wife?
If Nan Xian obeyed Suyi and was determined to marry Feng Ruqing, she did not know whether she could keep her composure anymore.
However, there was a great pain gnawing at her heart when she thought of giving up that godlike man. That pain was insufferable!
“Father.” Chen Qingyan glanced at An Cui who was standing behind her. Her eyes were dark. Then, she turned to look at the old master. “Today, I want to announce good news since everyone is here.”
The old master was suddenly on his guard again. “What kind of good news? Also, don’t call me father. I’m not your father!”
Chen Qingyan was not bothered by what the old master had said. She smiled and turned to Gu Shi.
“Manor Master, I hope that you’ll be our witness.”
Gu Shi raised his brow. He looked at Chen Qingyan with uncertainty. He did not know what Chen Qingyan was planning to do this time around.
“It’s rare that Xian’er is here with us. I want to make a decision today given that it’s the old master’s birthday. I want Nan Xian to take Young Lady An as his concubine.” Chen Qingyan smiled gently, seemingly calm and relaxed.
