Chapter 560 Father and Son
Lawyer Yang informed Song Ning and Mu Chen about Mu Qing’s request.
Song Ning frowned, worried that Mu Qing was up to something again.
Mu Chen smiled disdainfully before he said to Lawyer Yang, “I’ll go and speak to him.”
Lawyer Yang said, “I didn’t tell Mr. Mu that Ms. Liang doesn’t have much time left. I was afraid he’d deliberately stall for time…”
Mu Chen nodded. “I’ll go see him. He’s trying to provoke me.” Song Ning was confused. She did not understand what Mu Chen meant. Upon seeing the confusion on Song Ning’s face, Cheng Che explained in a low voice, “Mr. Mu lost everything this time. It’s only natural that he’s unwilling to accept his loss. He’s been planning this for more than twenty years. He’d always thought that Brother Chen was his biggest obstacle so he focused all his attention on Brother Chen. He didn’t expect his defeat would come from his wife. It’s only natural that he can’t accept his defeat.”
Song Ning really did not understand Mu Qing. He was still so dissatisfied after losing to his own son. She asked, “Is he trying to make a deal with you?”
Mu Chen scoffed. “The most important thing to him now is to get out of prison so he can make a comeback. He’s sure I have the power to get him out. He might even threaten me with something. In short, he won’t give up until he sees me.”
Then, Mu Chen turned to Lawyer Yang and asked, “Is it difficult to get a divorce immediately?”
Lawyer Yang nodded. “There’ll be some difficulties due to the time constraint. I’ll think ofa solution when I return. I’ll try to resolve this as soon as I can.”
Lawyer Yang could see everything clearly. He knew that Liang Zhou, Song Ning, and Mu Chen were all determined.
Mu Chen was relieved. “As for the division of assets, don’t worry about it. She doesn’t care about it now. She just wants her helper to be taken care of. Song Ning, let her know that we’ll make sure that helper is taken care of. I promise that she won’t ever have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of her life.” Then, he said to Lawyer Yang again, “Try to resolve this as soon as possible. She doesn’t have much time left, and this is one thing she’s determined to do so she can leave without regrets. I don’t want to owe her a favor so I want to return the favor before it’s too late.”
Song Ning looked at Mu Chen helplessly. She wanted to say something but thought better of it in the end.
As though he could read Song Ning’s mind, Mu Chen looked at her indifferently and said, “There’s no need to speak up for her. I’m grateful for what she had done.” Song Ning sighed and said to Cheng Che, “Don’t be like him.”
Cheng Che chuckled and tried to stay neutral. Inwardly, he complained, ‘Please don’t drag me into the matter between both of you! Don’t use me as cannon fodder!’
In the end, it was decided that Cheng Che would accompany Mu Chen to see Mu Qing. This was because Song Ning was worried Mu Chen would not be able to remain calm. After all, whenever the father and son met, they would quarrel.
When the father and son met again, tension buzzed in the air. Cheng Che felt his heart skip a beat.
Mu Qing looked at his son with a hint of pride as he said, “You’re finally willing to see me.”
The father and son were very handsome. With just a glance, everyone would be able to tell they were father and son. If they had a good relationship, who knew how many people would be envious of them.
Mu Qing thought to himself that his son was definitely here to seek revenge from him for something he did in his past life.
“I’ve already asked Lawyer Yang to proceed with the divorce through the court. The result will be out soon,” Mu Chen said tonelessly.
Mu Qing glared at Mu Chen. “Do you hate us so much? We were truly in love! Don’t tell me we don’t have the right to pursue love? How can you vent your narrow-minded anger on her? Do you even have a heart?”
