Mu Tangchuan watched Zhuang Shurong’s figure disappear into the door before he drove away.
When he returned home, it was already late at night.
However, the lights were still on in Wang Hui’s study.
As expected, he saw Wang Hui walking out of the study as soon as he reached the staircase.
“Mother? Why aren’t you sleeping at this time of night?”
Mu Tangchuan looked at Wang Hui and asked.
“I’m waiting for your news. How was it? Did you get along well with Ah Rong today? Bring her home in a few days. I’ve told the Zhuang couple and they have high hopes for you. Next weekend, you can visit them and familiarize yourself with the Zhuang family. In my opinion, if the two of you can get along well, then let’s settle the marriage and wait until next year to get married.”
Wang Hui already felt that this matter was a firm one. She felt that her son should be able to take a fancy to an outstanding girl like Zhuang Shurong. Moreover, her son was not bad either. He would definitely be able to catch Zhuang Shurong’s eye.
“Mother, let’s wait and see about this matter. At this stage, there’s no need to rush this. Zixi hasn’t been back for a long time. Give her a call tomorrow and tell her to come home for a visit. Father was thinking of her yesterday.”
Mu Tangchuan had no choice but to change the topic.
“I’m talking about you. Don’t bring Zixi into this.”
Wang Hui frowned. She felt a headache whenever Mu Zixi was mentioned.
“Zixi needs your concern. After all these years, do you really plan to continue this stalemate, Mother?”
Mu Tangchuan’s tone was a little heavy.
“What else do you think we can do? Can we tie her up? She was already estranged from your Father and I. When Qiming came over, we could only learn about her situation from him. Otherwise, where else can we find her?”
Wang Hui’s tone was a little stern, “I can’t control her anymore. Every time she comes back we end up having an argument. If she can obediently leave that circle and return to Glory World to help your father run the company, that would be good. However, you know your sister’s character the best. No one can force her to make her decisions. Sigh, forget it. Let’s not talk about it. It’s already late. You should go back and rest early.”
At this point, Wang Hui was unwilling to continue. She could only sigh and turn around to head back to her room.
Mu Tangchuan’s handsome brows were also furrowed. He had no choice but to return to his room.
The next day, he woke up early as usual. After breakfast, Su Zhengxun had already called to urge him.
Mu Tangchuan then called Xie Jiajia and told her to set off early. He then drove to pick up Zhuang Shurong.
When they arrived at the entrance of the manor, the guards greeted him politely the moment they saw him. Zhuang Shurong was also prepared. The two of them got into the car and headed straight to the outskirts.
When they arrived at their destination, Su Zhengxun, Zhou Zhenjun, Xie Jiajia, Gu Ting, and the rest had already arrived.
When they saw Mu Tangchuan bring an unfamiliar beauty over, they were naturally very surprised.
Mu Tangchuan introduced them to each other. Su Zhengxun and the rest quickly understood that this Zhuang Shurong was probably the person that the Mu couple introduced to Mu Tangchuan?
They seemed to have heard Wang Hui mention it before.
“Not bad, Tangchuan. She’s actually so pretty. Hurry up and tell us, is something good about to happen?”
Zhou Zhenjun looked meaningfully at Zhuang Shurong who was packing up with Xie Jiajia and the rest. After a while, his gaze fell on Mu Tangchuan who was beside him.
Mu Tangchuan’s expression did not change. He glanced at him and said, “Yes or no, I can’t answer you now.”
“Hmph, I thought you were really going to become an ascetic monk. You don’t get close to women. Ever since Mai Zi left, I haven’t seen you with any girl. A while ago, your mother even complained to me.”
As Zhou Zhenjun said that, he took the shotgun from Mu Tangchuan.
“Sigh, I just heard that Zhengxun has agreed to get married. I think they’ll be getting married next month. Also, let me tell you, it seems that Xie Jiajia was taken care of by him. Two days ago, my mother bumped into Xie Jiajia at the hospital. She was in the obstetrics and gynecology department.”
Zhou Zhenjun lowered his voice and said to Mu Tangchuan.
“What do you mean?”
Mu Tangchuan raised his eyebrows.
“Alright, stop pretending. Do you still need to think about it? Zhengxun is going to be a father. His speed has always left us in the dust. That’s why Uncle Su and the others wanted to hold a wedding for them so quickly.”
Zhou Zhenjun coughed lightly and laughed.
At this moment, Mu Tangchuan chuckled softly.
“That’s great. He and Xie Jiajia should have been married a long time ago. Jiajia has been guarding him for many years.”
Mu Tangchuan recalled the incident between Su Zhengxun and Xie Jiajia. At this moment, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Do you know why Xie Jiajia has been angry with him recently? It’s because of this matter. Zhengxun is not the kind of person who can’t control himself. Tell me…”
“It was during the middle of last month when he asked me to drink with him. He drank a little too much. That day was his birthday. I asked Xie Jiajia to come over to accompany him.”
“I see…”
Zhou Zhenjun touched his eyebrows and could not help but laugh. “No wonder! But it’s just right!”
“We can prepare red packets when we go back. Alright, let’s go over too!”
Mu Tangchuan said after that and followed Su Zhengxun with a shotgun in his hand.
“Let’s split into a few groups. We’ll gather here in two hours!”
After Su Zhengxun said that, he glanced at Xie Jiajia and said, “You’ll be in a group with me!”
“I want to be in a group with Tangchuan!”
Xie Jiajia glared at her.
“Tangchuan and Shurong, you and I, hurry up.”
Su Zhengxun strode forward swiftly, and everyone split up as well.
Zhuang Shurong’s gaze moved back and forth between Su Zhengxun and Xie Jiajia, and there was a slight smile at the corner of her mouth.
“They are arguing with each other. Let’s go.”
At this moment, Mu Tangchuan walked over and whispered into her ear.
Zhuang Shurong nodded and followed Mu Tangchuan to the dense forest ahead.
“They seem to be an interesting couple.”
After walking for a long distance, Zhuang Shurong suddenly spoke.
“Mmm, Jiajia grew up together with us. She has always been the decided wife for Zhengxun.”
At this moment, Mu Tangchuan stopped in his tracks. He raised the shotgun in his hand and aimed at a certain corner in front of him. At the same time, he made a silent gesture to Zhuang Shurong behind him.
Zhuang Shurong also quickly stopped in her tracks and carefully followed behind him.
Mu Tangchuan was aiming at her when he caught sight of the woman beside him. He smiled and slowed down his movements. He turned to look at her. “Why don’t you give it a try?”
Zhuang Shurong shook her head awkwardly. “I’ve never touched a gun before.”
“It’s very simple. Come here, I’ll teach you.”
