C103 Exception Found
"No, you can't toast." Mu Qingqing shook her head with a pained expression. She pulled Mu Anren's arm even more forcefully. You used to die of stomach cancer. You can't drink anymore. "
"You, what did you say?" Mu Anren didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This child was lying with his eyes closed. It was all his fault that he didn't look at her properly. Old Master Mu had let her drink white spirits again, so getting drunk like this left him speechless.
"I'm not drunk. I'm telling the truth." Mu Qingqing only felt muddleheaded, but she was truly heartbroken. She could see Mu Anren's thoughts even though he was drunk. Mu Anren thought that her words were drunk. Dad, you can't drink anymore. Drinking is too much of a pain in your stomach, you trust me. "
"Alright, take a good rest. It's all father's fault, you shouldn't be allowed to drink." Mu Anren tried to break Mu Qingqing's hand out of helplessness because he was speechless towards Mu Qingqing. Drunk words were not meant to be true.
"You don't believe me." Mu Qingqing said desolately. He believed Su Cuiyun's words. He believed Mu Xiaoyou's words, but he would not believe hers.
"Dad, I've always wanted to ask you a question. You obviously don't love your mother, so why did you marry her? " Mu Qingqing thought of Su Cuiyun's philanthropic face and remembered what Mu Anren had said to Su Cuiyun. She didn't know if it was because of the alcohol, but she was afraid of others, or something else, so she blurted out a question.
Mu Anren's fingers paused slightly. What he said was too accurate. He hid the trace of warmth on his face and stared at Mu Qingqing like a torch. All these years, he had always thought that he had hidden himself well.
"What do you know?" Mu Anren asked.
"You don't love your mother, and I'm not her own daughter." Mu Qingqing's elegant face frowned slightly, her eyes were still closed, and her tone carried a hint of drunkenness.
Mu Anren crouched down and felt a chill in his heart. This kid was lying with his eyes closed. Wasn't what he said a bit too realistic? He indeed did not love Su Cuiyun, and Mu Qingqing was indeed not Su Cuiyun's biological daughter. Qing Qing, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't speak carelessly about this. What makes you think it's not your mother's? "
Mu Qingqing sneered and opened her eyes slightly. "She treats me well. Dad, you clearly know this, but you chose to ignore her."
Mu Anren's forehead had already started to wrinkle. It was very shallow, but there were traces of time being carved. When Mu Qingqing opened her eyes, she slowly raised her hand to stroke Mu Anren's forehead.
Mu Anren watched as Mu Qingqing's ice-cold hand touched his forehead. He couldn't see the smile on Mu Qingqing's face, but he could feel her pain.
Struggling, feeling conflicted.
Did he choose to ignore it? Mu Anren couldn't help but fall into deep thought. His daughter had gradually grown up. Being able to become the top scorer meant that she wasn't stupid. As smart and sensitive as she was, it was possible that she would realize that there was something wrong between him and Su Cuiyun.
"Rest well and wait for you to wake up from your drinking." Mu Anren realized that he didn't dare to look into Mu Qingqing's eyes or meet her gaze because she was too similar to that person. He was ashamed.
Mu Qingqing fell into a deep sleep on the sofa. When Mu Anren left the room, Mo Xiaohe was standing at the door.
"Xiaohe." Mu Anren's gaze darkened slightly. Something was going on in a direction that he couldn't control.
"Uncle Mu." Mo Xiaohe looked at the door with concern. Mu Qingqing seemed to have knocked on her head when she fell down just now. He couldn't stop worrying and came over.
"Qing Qing doesn't usually drink, today it's her Party for Number One Scholar, let her drink two cups, the child is drunk." Mu Anren smiled as he took Mo Xiaohe's shoulder and walked into the hall.
Mo Xiaohe was sure that Mu Anren had seen through the Mo family's thoughts. He didn't refuse and walked over to the wine table with Mu Anren.
"Oh Xiaohe, now that you're a soldier, are you used to staying in the army?" Mu Anren saw that he was sitting up straight and looked like a soldier now.
"I'm used to it. Uncle and my dad have been in the army before. According to the rules of the army, I'll have to call him the Old Squad Leader." The corner of Mo Xiaohe's mouth slightly hooked up as he personally poured wine for Mu Anren. The two of them clinked their cups.
"Kid, you really know how to talk." Mu Anren laughed and changed the topic again. Xiaohe, you're already seventeen today, right? The people who go to the Mo family for matchmaking must be waiting in line for a long time. "
"Uncle, you don't have to say it. It's still too early to say this. I know the rules of the military. There are still many years left." Mo Xiaohe clinked cups with Mu Anren one after the other and was not afraid of the stage at all.
"Liming, look at our Xiaohe. He started to get involved with his future father-in-law so quickly." Not far away, Lili covered her mouth and laughed as she whispered to Mo Liming.
Mo Liming's face was still cold. Seeing that everyone was eating their own dishes, he couldn't help but ask Ren Xinru, "Xinru, don't have too much hope on this matter."
"What is it? I think your brother has a good impression of Xiaohe. " Ren Xinru understood the meaning behind Mo Liming's words. He felt that Mu Anren would not agree to this marriage.
"It has nothing to do with impressions." Mo Liming said succinctly, "Anren's impression of Xiaohe isn't bad, it's limited to his image."
The smile on Ren Xinru's face from before was gone. She reached out her hand to pinch Mo Liming's waist and whispered, "Tell me clearly, why does your brother not like our family's Xiaohe anymore?"
Mo Xiaohe was so young, and all the people that came to the Mo family for matchmaking were lined up. Family background, looks, cultivation, how was Mo Xiaohe bad? Mu Anren still doesn't like the son of the Mo family?0
"We'll talk about it when we get home." Mo Liming really couldn't do anything about Ren Xinru. The woman he spoiled, even if she was kneeling, had to be spoiled!
Ren Xinru didn't say anything and just raised her eyebrows slightly, winking at him. Once Ren Xinru winked at him in public, then, if Mo Liming ignored her, or changed the topic, he would not be able to sleep on the bed for the next half month.
"Really …" Mo Liming wiped his hands with a hot towel and felt a little nervous.
"Will you tell me?" Ren Xinru asked as she raised her brows and gnashed her teeth.
"Old Master Mu has other arrangements." Wu Tie had only said this before Ren Xinru immediately understood. It seemed like Mu Qingqing also had a marriage alliance?
"That can't be, Qingqing doesn't know?" Ren Xinru remembered that Mu Qingqing had said she was still young. Could it be that that was her excuse for Qingqing to reject her?
Ren Xinru's heart turned cold for Mo Xiaohe after thinking about Mu Qingqing's attitude towards Mo Xiaohe and the rejection she had been bringing up these days.
She shouldn't have allowed her own son to be so obsessed with finding people for so many years. She originally thought that it was a good thing that her own son was devoted to her. However, if Mu Qingqing accepted the Mu Family's arrangement, what would happen to Mo Xiaohe?
"Anren had only briefly mentioned this to me about Mu Family's family matters. I don't know about any of them." Mo Liming and Mu Anren, his old comrade, were a good fit, and even after all these years, Mu Anren remained the same.
"Then Xiaohe …" Lili looked in Mo Xiaohe's direction worriedly. He had even ran out from the military hospital on purpose, if she had known earlier, she wouldn't have let Aa Qi tell her about the Party for Number One Scholar.
"The son has his own son's plans. If the son really insists on this matter, he will think of a way to solve it." Mo Liming also knew the fate between Mo Xiaohe and Mu Qingqing. He felt that Mo Xiaohe had the ability to solve the problem.
"How about, you ask the old tutor to step in and give our son another chance?" Ren Xinru hoped from the bottom of her heart that her son's emotional road would not be so bumpy.
Mo Liming didn't answer Ren Xinru's question and instead went to drink with some of his friends. If it wasn't to avoid Ren Xinru, he really didn't like drinking with this group of people.
There was no helping it, after all, he had lost his family status the moment he fell in love with Ren Xinru!
Mo Xiaohe drank two taels of white wine with Mu Anren. His legs started to hurt and he frowned slightly.
"Xiaohe, you should eat more food. Uncle still has to go there. I didn't manage to entertain you well. Please forgive me." Mu Anren smiled as he walked towards the side. His steps also became a bit more exaggerated. As expected of Mo Liming's son, he can really drink.
Mu Anren had a good impression of the Mo family and had always been full of praise for Mo Xiaohe. However, ever since he saw Mo Xiaohe's concerned eyes towards Mu Qingqing, he had an unspeakable resistance towards this person who was thinking about his daughter.
Mo Xiaohe could really drink. After drinking two taels of white wine, his expression didn't change at all. Mu Anren rubbed his dazed eyes and walked towards Su Cuiyun.
He began to realize that as Mu Qingqing grew up day by day, one day, she would be further and further away from him. Mu Anren glanced at the people in the hall. There were all kinds of people, including some boys about Mu Qingqing's age.
"Why did I make this Party for Number One Scholar!" Mu Anren sucked in a breath of cold air, feeling extremely regretful. Not only did he have nothing to do, he even brought a bunch of wolves for his daughter. It was possible that one of these people might fall in love with Mu Qingqing on a certain day of the year and then get married and have children. He needed another son-in-law.
"He's really stupid!" Mu Anren cursed himself as he rubbed his forehead. His daughter was still young, but she looked like the princess she had worn when she was seven. In the blink of an eye, she had grown up.
Old Master Mu's gaze fell on Mo Xiaohe for a long time, "Is that the Mo family's brat?"
Mu Ankang followed Old Master Mu's gaze and looked over. Coincidentally, he saw a cold expression on Mo Xiaohe's face. He was holding a wine cup in his hand and was in a daze.
"It's Mo Liming's kid, his name is Mo Xiaohe, he's currently in the army." Mu Ankang knew Mu Anren's comrade-in-arms. In the past, he had even delivered specialties to Mu Anren in the army. He recognized the child who looked like Mo Liming at first glance.
Old Master Mu did not make a sound. If he remembered correctly, he was upstairs with Mu Qingqing.
"Dad, is there a problem?" Mu Ankang didn't understand the old man's intention in asking Mo Xiaohe all of a sudden.
"Give me a copy of his information and ask him to be in the army." Old Master Mu had a dignified expression and never slacked.
