1796: I will flatten the Mu Group.

I will flatten the Mu Group.

He only heard that bit about flattening the Mu Group. Those resonant words were so powerfully uttered that he heard them loud and clear!1

A question could not help popping in his head.

Who is this guy?!

He's so arrogant!

Flatten the Mu Group?!

What gave him the courage to threaten our chief?!

Is he here to disrupt this engagement?!

With a cold face, Jiang Shen approached them but got stopped by his boss.

"Chief?!"

He was puzzled, not knowing why the latter had stopped him.

Even Lu Jinyu, who had rushed over at the scene as well, was surprised to see this. Though he did not hear Gong Jie's provocative words, just by looking at his unfriendly stance, he knew that the intruder boded ill-will!

Mu Yazhe's face darkened slightly, but he remained mum.

Gong Jie stared fixedly and aggressively at him like a lion protecting its pride's happiness.

Sure, she could marry this man!

He was willing to trust his sister's judgment and decision. As her brother, he had no right to interfere in her affairs even though he was worried!

His only bottom line was that she must be happy; this must not be crossed no matter what!

Protecting her happiness was his principle.

This was just like how Youyou had once questioned his father. 'What's the reason behind one's decision to become more powerful?'

His answer was the same as his nephew, and that was protecting his loved ones.

Yun Shishi was his most beloved person, so he was naturally duty-bound to safeguard her happiness!

He silently scrutinized the man as he awaited a response from this brother-in-law of his!

After what seemed like a century of still silence, the latter suddenly smirked. "Flatten the Mu Group?"

He merely raised a brow at that. The raging emotions in his eyes, though, spoke volumes of his warning to the man. If he could say such words, it meant that he could deliver!

There was not much expression on Mu Yazhe's face except for a slight regretful look. "I'm sorry, but I think you won't get the chance to do so!"

With that, his lips tugged up in a conceited smirk.

Since he was determined to marry her, he would then spoil her for life.

For richer and for poorer, as well as in sickness and in health.

Likewise, cherishing this woman was his bottom line as her husband!

"I don't need you to remind me of this."

Hearing that, Gong Jie smiled and raised a brow. He was obviously very satisfied with the response he got.

"That'd better be!"

Yun Shishi looked at them out of her curiosity, but it was just too bad that she could not see clearly their silent confrontation.

Her brother turned toward her and smiled before he very naturally hooked an arm around the other man's shoulders. "I was just having a friendly chat with my brother-in-law."

Mu Yazhe: "…"

Cordial and friendly?

Saying words like 'flattening the Mu Group' was friendly?

The corners of his eyes twitched for a bit.

The woman was apparently unconvinced as well, for she asked askance, "You looked aggressive earlier, though."

He frankly owned up to it. "Yup! I was threatening my dearest brother-in-law earlier; if he mistreats you, I'll flatten his Mu Group."

His reply stunned her for a bit. Thinking that it was merely a joke, she immediately told him, "Xiao Jie, enough with the jokes!"

Feeling aggrieved, he pouted at her. "I'm not kidding, sis! I'm just worried that you'll be bullied once you get married to him, so I'm giving brother-in-law a warning now."
