C449 Chu Zhaojun
As soon as Mu Chen finished speaking, two security guards immediately came forward and asked Chu Xiong to leave.
Seeing Chu Xiong leave, Lin Yuyan advised, "Mu Chen, I think your second uncle is quite sincere. It doesn't seem good for you to drive him away so coldly."
"It's not good." Mu Chen replied, "But if he is well, it will not be good for me."
"Why?" Lin Yuyan looked puzzled.
"Because they have an ulterior motive." Mu Chen said quietly, "Yuyan, think about it. What did the Lin Family and Qin Family of Chubei do to you?"
"The sudden appearance of the Chu Family in Zhonghai is the same as the two families trying to use you."
After experiencing so much, Lin Yuyan naturally knew that in the Wealthy Class, benefits were the most important. Even if it was kinship, it would make way for benefits.
Hearing Mu Chen say so, Lin Yuyan immediately understood Mu Chen's state of mind.
...
"What?"
"Did this kid really say that?"
The Chu Family of Zhonghai.
After hearing Chu Xiong's report, Chu Ren Xing slammed the table in anger. "How dare you!"
"This kid is too arrogant. Who does he think he is that he wants me to pick him up personally?"
"This is impossible!"
" Family Head, please calm down! " At this time, Sixth Brother Chu said, "Patriarch, please listen to me!"
"Although this brat is extremely arrogant, our Chu Family is currently facing the threat of the Southeast Asia warlord, Sang Jie. Family Head, you should lower your status and lower your status. If you feel wronged, you will personally receive it."
"Although you have suffered some grievances, Patriarch, you have finally resolved the crisis of the Chu Family."
"At that time, we will discuss the public opinion and public relations. At that time, we will be able to gain the reputation of a family head!"
"I say, Sixth Brother, you're thinking too idealistic." Chu Xiong shook his head and immediately rejected Sixth Brother Chu's suggestion. "I'm afraid that after the family head personally goes, this kid will make all kinds of strange requests."
"You've been in contact with this kid before, you should understand. This kid isn't easy to deal with."
"Don't let the patriarch personally go and mess with him. He'll ruin the reputation of the Chu Family in Zhonghai!"
"That's why we can't do it!"
"Old Er's words make sense." Chu Ren Xing also expressed his agreement, "I, as the head of the Chu Family of Zhonghai, think that I, as the head of the Chu Family, If I were to be defeated by this so-called grandson of mine, how would I be able to establish myself in the royal family in the future?"
"Think of other ways."
"Otherwise, we can just send someone over and catch this kid." Chu Zhiming suggested, "If we delay any longer, I'm afraid that before we can complete Sang Jie's request, our Zhonghai Chu family will be finished in a fit of rage!"
Originally, as the eldest son of the Chu family, Chu Zhiming was the most suitable male heir.
However, the Zhonghai Chu family had always prioritized men over women. Chu Ren Xing simply couldn't bear to give a male heir like Chu Zhiming to Sang Jie as a slave.
Not to mention Chu Zhiming, even a male subordinate wouldn't be able to do it.
Thus, after hearing about Mu Chen, the Chu Family seemed to have grasped onto a life-saving straw.
As long as there was a scapegoat like Mu Chen, Chu Zhiming didn't have to worry. He would become Sang Jie's slave.
As for the girls of the Chu family, their lives were very cheap.
Even if he had to give ten or a hundred to Sang Jie, Chu Ren Xing didn't feel any heartache.
In Chu Ren Xing's view, male servants were the future hope of the Chu family, and girls could be used as trading tools to protect the Chu family.
For example, the chosen direct descendant, Chu Zhaojun, was the only daughter of Chu Ren Xing's fourth son. Even if she had a high degree and obtained a postdoctorate from Harvard University in Warhawk, she still had a low status after returning to the Chu family.
Even though she had a high degree, as a junior of the Chu family, she had been instilled with the idea of being loyal to her family ever since she was young. Thus, after he was chosen as the first direct descendant of ten girls and wanted to be given to Sang Jie as a slave, Chu Zhaojun didn't complain at all.
At this time, the conversation that Chu Ren Xing and the others discussed was heard by Chu Zhaojun who was standing at the side.
"I didn't think that our Chu family would actually have a grandson who was left outside. My poor cousin!" Chu Zhaojun's heart was overflowing with love. While the people of the Chu Family were discussing, he quietly left the main hall.
Then, he headed straight to Chubei.
"Brother Mu, there's a pretty girl looking for you."
The security guard told Mu Chen as soon as Mu Chen arrived at Tiancheng Group.
"Huh?" Mu Chen was a little confused and asked, "Do you know who it is?"
"I don't know." The security guard shook his head and said, "It is very unfamiliar! Originally, I wanted to stop her. However, this girl seems to be in a hurry. She even said that she has urgent matters to discuss with you. It would be too late if it was any later!"
"Oh, is that so?" Mu Chen nodded and said. "I'll go up and take a look."
After arriving at the reception room, Mu Chen saw a pretty girl dressed in plain clothes waiting there.
She even glanced out the window from time to time. Clearly, she was very anxious.
"Miss, are you looking for me?" Mu Chen asked.
"Are you Cousin Mu Chen?" Chu Zhaojun looked Mu Chen up and down and went straight to the point. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Chu Zhaojun. I am from the Chu family in Zhonghai."
"The Chu family is going to catch you. Hurry up and run!"
"If it's too late, it'll be too late!"
Chu Zhaojun said everything in one breath.
After that, she glanced at the window and saw an Elfa with a Zhonghai license plate barge in. Chu Zhaojun's face turned pale. "It's over, it's over, it's too late!"
"The people from the Chu Family are already here!"
Mu Chen also looked out of the window. He did not pay attention to the car that had barged in. Instead, he looked at Chu Zhaojun. "Are you the girl among the ten male and female direct descendants of the Chu family?"
Chu Zhaojun was stunned at first. Then, she nodded and said, "You already know?"
"Yes." Mu Chen smiled and said, "The Chu family kept saying that they wanted to take me home to enjoy wealth and wealth. They wanted me to be the scapegoat and die for them."
Chu Zhaojun suddenly stopped talking.
Bang!
At this moment, the door to the reception room was violently kicked open.
Old Sixth Chu and Chu Zhi Ming barged in.
When he saw Chu Zhaojun, Chu Zhiming was stunned. "Chu Zhaojun, what are you doing here?"2
"Do you still need to ask?" Chu Laoliu grunted. "This girl is definitely here to snitch!"
"If I'm not wrong, this kid already knows the true purpose of our Chu Family!"
"Since he knows, it's good too!" Chu Zhi Ming said, "This brat was selected to die for our Chu Family. This is an extremely great family honor. To be able to obtain this glory, this brat should feel incomparably glorious!"
I have to feel honored to be sent as a scapegoat by you all?
This line of thinking was truly strange.
Mu Chen just chuckled.
