Sir, How About A Marriage? Chapter 162

Chapter 162 - Borrowing Someone’s Name to Act

Song Ning looked at Liang Zhou. “First, I didn’t promise you anything. Second, I advise you not to have any ulterior motives. It won’t be good if you ruin the present happiness!”

Liang Zhou said indignantly, “Then don’t blame me for being impolite…”

Song Ning replied calmly, “Do as you wish as long as you can bear the consequences…” Following that, she turned around to leave.

Liang Zhou stomped her feet. “Song Ning! You clearly didn’t object to us coming for dinner. As long as you’re willing to help me, I’ll definitely repay you in the future!”

Song Ning did not turn around as she said, “Whether you can continue to stay or not is beyond my control. I can’t help you, and I don’t need you to repay me either. I’ll say it again: you better not have any thoughts about Grandma. Don’t even think about hurting her.” After that, she opened the door and left.

‘This woman really has too many thoughts. I don’t know how she bewitched Mu Chen’s father…’

After the meal, everyone shifted to the living room to chat.

Song Ning helped Sister Yu and brought various fruit platters.

Liang Zhou squeezed next to Mu Qing on the couch.

At this moment, Mu Qing was telling Jiang Jin his interesting experiences when he was abroad.

Jiang Jin and Sister Yu were engrossed listening to Mu Qing’s story.

On the other hand, Cheng Che approached Mu Chen to play a game.

Liang Zhou spoke softly to Jiang Jin, “The Young Madam is really gentle and virtuous. She’s very understanding as well.”

Jiang Jin smiled and nodded. Then, she said to Mu Chen, “Song Ning is indeed a good child. It’s Mu Chen’s blessing to be able to marry her.”

Mu Qing smiled. “Since Grandma approves of her, it’s only natural that she’s good…”

Jiang Jin was about to speak out when Liang Zhou suddenly said, “Song Ning just said that we’ve been away for so long and are unable to show the Old Madam filial piety. She suggested we move back to the family house. Our family will be reunited at that time, and it’d be beautiful. I think what she said made sense. She’s really sensible…”

Everyone suddenly froze.

Jiang Jin and Sister Yu looked at Song Ning in astonishment. After all, Song Ning had never expressed such thoughts to them before.

Song Ning, who was holding onto a fruit platter at this moment, was caught off guard by Liang Zhou’s words. She instinctively turned to look at Mu Chen and saw the hurt in his eyes. He silently put down the chess piece in his hand and rose to his feet. In the process, he accidentally flipped the chessboard over. The sound of the falling chessboard and chess pieces sounded like the sound of a heart being broken.

Mu Chen strode to the staircase, clearly intending to head upstairs.

Song Ning shouted, “Mu Chen, stop right there!”

Surprisingly, Mu Chen stopped in his tracks and did as he was told.

Song Ning inhaled deeply and placed the fruit platter on the table. Then, she looked at the fallen chessboard and chess pieces before she said sternly to Cheng Che, “Pick it up.”

Cheng Che shuddered. He lowered his head and immediately began to pick up the chess pieces and the chessboard.

Subsequently, Song Ning walked up to Mu Chen and raised her head to look at him. “Just a casual sentence from an outsider is enough for you to doubt me? Did you even try to ask me for the truth? You believe the words of an outsider without even consulting me. Don’t I even get a chance to defend myself? Mu Chen, have you lost your mind?”

Mu Chen’s cold expression began to ease.

Song Ning stared at him and asked, “Don’t you think you owe me an apology?”

Mu Chen slowly reached out and grabbed Song Ning’s hand. He said softly, “I’m sorry; I was wrong.”

Song Ning looked at him fiercely. Then, she pulled him to the living room and pushed him to sit on the couch. She looked at Liang Zhou who was maintaining the posture of a bullied victim, but her gaze was vicious.

Song Ning smiled faintly as she said, “Ms. Liang, you’ve been praising me non-stop just so you can borrow my name to return to the family house, right? I didn’t say anything of that sort and remained silent, but you seized this opportunity, thinking I would be unable to defend myself, right?”

Liang Zhou said apologetically and timidly, “Song Ning, I… I didn’t expect you didn’t discuss the matter with Mu Chen. I’m sorry for causing a conflict between both of you. I’m really, really sorry.” She leaned closer against Mu Qing as though she was being bullied.

Mu Qing’s gaze toward Song Ning turned unfriendly immediately.

Mu Chen felt the scene before him was an eyesore. He said icily, “Back then, something like this happened here as well, right? You wanted to stay so you used mother’s name and said that mother wanted you to stay for a few days. In fact, mother said no such things. However, you knew that because you were sisters, she would not say anything to embarrass you. You forced her to accept that. Following that, you stayed for more than a few days until you finally climbed into his bed…”

Liang Zhou’s face paled immediately.

Mu Chen sneered. “Back then, my mother didn’t say anything and endured the grievances on her own. She even had to endure people saying she invited a wolf into her house. It’s been more than ten years, and you still want to use the same trick on Song Ning? You thought she would endure and remain silent, right? Unfortunately, you miscalculated.”

Following that, he lifted Song Ning’s hand and gently kissed it. He looked at her with eyes shining with affection and determination.
