Chapter 34
Chu Tianhao didn’t go back to the Chu family’s house for the past two days. He left directly, using the pretext of going to an alien galaxy to discuss business.
Chu Mubei’s incident seriously affected his credibility in the eyes of the public. Chu Tianhao, persuaded by Chu Muxi, decided to leave for a few days.
“Although it was my eldest brother who caused the problem, as the old saying goes, it is the fault of a child who didn’t have good father. Those who always want to cause trouble to our family will definitely take this opportunity to attack you. Father, if you are in Central Star now, I am afraid you will be targeted by them. I suggest you leave for a few days, and when this matter gradually dissipates, everything will be fine,” Chu Muxi said sincerely.
Chu Tianhao stared at him closely, as if judging his inner thoughts.
After all, the biggest beneficiary of Chu Mubei’s accident was actually Chu Muxi. It was not that no one had raised suspicions, but Chu Tianhao had been investigating for a long time, and the results showed that Chu Muxi was a complete victim in this matter, and he was just lucky enough to escape.
“I’m not afraid of slanting shadows, and my father is not afraid of them. But—” Chu Tianhao frowned, “But we do have to be on guard against villains, so what will you do at school?”
Chu Muxi shook his head, “I’m fine. Our performance department is far away from other departments, and generally, no one goes there. I go and finish school at a certain time every day, so I’ll just ignore those people. To put it bluntly, father, this kind of gossip is not a big deal. Although my elder brother went too far, that person did not suffer any substantial harm.”
Chu Muxi paused, and even advised: “I think father can persuade him; it is best for him to stand up and clarify, saying that everything is a misunderstanding. After a while, when new news comes out, everyone will forget it.”
After hearing this, Chu Tianhao nodded and patted his shoulder with emotion. “I didn’t expect you to be so sensible now and think much more carefully and maturely than before.”
Chu Muxi smiled sheepishly, “I learned it all from you. I heard some of father’s previous things, and I feel that father is really awesome. I hope I can be as awesome as father in the future!”
He touched his face shyly, with a bit of admiration.
During this period, Chu Tianhao was troubled by several mistresses and several illegitimate children. Not only did those guys keep making small moves in private, but now they even dragged him down.
Chu Tianhao wished he could kill all those people every day. He didn’t expect that the son he disliked the most would be so sensible and able to understand his difficulties.
“Muxi, you are becoming more and more sensible. Father is very pleased.” After Chu Tianhao said this, he asked tentatively: “Have you talked to your grandpa about the resource star I told you last time?”
“I just changed departments recently, and I haven’t had time to see him yet. He will definitely be nagging me again, and it will be annoying to death.” Chu Muxi snorted.
“You, I told you to talk to your grandpa properly and stop being a child all the time.”
Chu Tianhao smiled, as if he was really a good father who cared about his son. “Okay, I will not be at home these two days. You just go over to visit him. Remember to mention the resource star to him. I shouldn’t tell you these things; but your grandpa’s company has had some problems with funds recently. Most of the funds have been invested in that resource star, but the resources available are too few. With the current capabilities of his company, he can only continue to lose money.”
Chu Muxi groaned, “If it were me, I would sell it as soon as possible. Grandpa is stubborn and doesn’t listen to other people’s opinions at all.”
Chu Muxi said dissatisfied.
A glint flashed in Chu Tianhao’s eyes, “That’s why you, the grandson, need to remind him. I heard that others want to pay for it, but the price is very low. You, talk to him carefully. We are a family. I am willing to take over this hot potato. Why should we trust outsiders? Don’t you think so?”
“Yes, we are a family! Father, don’t worry, leave it to me. I will definitely handle it!” Chu Muxi promised, patting his chest.
Chu Tianhao patted him on the shoulder and laughed, “Okay! Then father will be waiting for your good news!”
“Yeah!” Chu Muxi also laughed, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
.
As soon as Chu Tianhao left, Chu Muxi went to visit Shen Wu openly.
There were only He Hui and Chu Lulu in the Chu family now. Chu Mubei was directly locked into the house by Chu Tianhao and put into confinement. They also sent people to guard around the house to keep him locked up and prevent him from appearing in front of the media.
He Hui had not dared to take Chu Lulu to tea parties recently. After all, her own identity was despised by others, and now Chu Mubei had such a scandal.
Just by seeing her furious face, he knew she was being crowded outside.
Chu Tianhao was not here, and Chu Muxi was too lazy to pretend to be brothers and sisters. The family was in chaos. Anyway, he went to find his grandfather on Chu Tianhao’s order, and he was not afraid of others following him.
He Hui stared at him with a murderous gaze, “It was you, right? You did it, didn’t you?! It was you who harmed my Mubei! You madman! Chu Mubei is your brother! If something like this happens to him, how do you think your reputation will get any better?!”
Chu Muxi smiled and said nonchalantly: “Did my reputation before be very good? Chu Mubei knows how bad he had ruined my reputation for a long time. Now, it’s time for him to have a taste of it. Besides, I didn’t harm him. He brought it upon himself and deserved it.”
“You fart! Mubei is the one who was framed! It was you who did it! Tell me clearly!” He Hui has not even been in the mood to put on makeup these days. Regardless of whether she wears makeup or not, Chu Tianhao was too lazy to look at her again.
Chu Lulu continued to hang out outside every day and play around.
There was no one else in the living room, only him and He Hui.
Chu Muxi stood there, slowly buttoning the sleeves of his uniform, and slowly showed a cold smile.
“What do you want me to say?” He smiled obviously, but He Hui felt chills in her heart. The huge fear oppressed her, and she fell to the ground and kept retreating.
“You, what do you want to do? I, I am your stepmother!”
Chu Muxi raised his hand slightly, and He Hui screamed and crawled to the corner.
“Don’t think too much.” Chu Muxi whispered softly and said word by word: “I’m not interested in you. But—”
He buttoned up his buttons, gently caressed his uniform, and raised his head, staring at He Hui with cold eyes. “I will keep watching you until the day you get retribution. Don’t worry, it won’t be too long. Your son is the first. Who do you think is next?” The whispers of the devil were heart-stopping.
After saying that, he left the Chu family mansion with an indifferent look on his face.
A moment later, a shrill scream came from the Chu family mansion.
