When Song Enya saw that he was about to leave, she gave chase, caught hold of his sleeve, and asked hurriedly, “Where are you going?”

The man did not even want to look at her and simply shook her hand off!

The missy went berserk and screamed at the top of her lungs, “Stop right there!”

The man stopped short in his tracks and turned his head to glare at her. “Let me warn you: We are on company grounds and it’s not a place for you to behave like a madwoman. You’d better remember your status and not disgrace either of our families anymore!”

The missy was so angry that her chest heaved unevenly and her eyes got all red and swollen. Ever since she got pregnant, she had become temperamental and easy to provoke. She was not as calm and stable as before, and she often had hysterical fits.

Forcing herself to calm down, she asked in a trembling voice, “Do you treat me as your fiancée at all?”

“Of course!” The man’s voice was frigid when he answered her question. “It is an undeniable fact that you’re my fiancée. Since I’ve acknowledged you, I will not deny your value.”

“Then, why are you treating me this way?!”

Her eyes widened as angry tears rolled down her eyes.

Why is it so hard to find a man to love me unconditionally?

First, it was Mu Yazhe, and now was this man. None had treated her as the apple of his eye!

God knew just how jealous she was of Yun Shishi to be pampered like that!

As for her, she felt like a beggar crying pitifully for love, but all she got, in the end, was disdain.

She could not figure it out. Spouting the question, word by word, she demanded to know. “Why! Why do you care so much about a woman with such a humble status?”

Mu Yancheng went quiet for a while as the image of Meng Qingxue filled his mind once more.

He recalled how, occasionally, she would crouch on his chest, crying capriciously like a child, coming across as an adorable kid whom he just wanted to indulge.

He then remembered how she had taken great care of him day and night when he came down with a flu. To him at that time, she was a mature and dependable woman who shone with maternal love.

The man could not help smiling at these thoughts before he finally replied faintly, “By the mere fact that she treated me with single-mindedness. She’d never manipulate me around as what you’re doing.”

After saying that, he pushed the door open and walked away without another look.

Song Enya was dumbfounded on the spot, and this was when she had a full realization!

The man probably had not gotten over the fact that she had sabotaged and used him in the past.

She slumped onto the floor, looking totally dispirited. Her eyes gazed vacantly in the direction the man had taken as she shed tears silently!

…

With Mu Linfeng’s support, it was a matter of time before Mu Yancheng rose to the top.

The elder was highly regarded inside their family. After Mu Yazhe left the conglomerate, the older man had become a man of tremendous power inside the household!

The night before the formal announcement, he tossed and turned in his bed, finding it hard to go to sleep in his excited and tumultuous state!

Perhaps the fact that one thing he had been fantasizing about came too suddenly for it to be real, he could not help but doubt the authenticity of the matter, wondering if this was just a dream!

He was afraid that he would wake up from this beautiful dream to be told that his brother was still the head of the household at the end of the day.

As for him, he was nothing more than just a pathetic wretch licking his wounds, abandoned after being overshadowed by his more capable brother!
