His brows twitched, and he promptly questioned, “How so?”

“That woman is quite ambitious and scheming. I have no idea how she managed to sneak into Huanyu’s gala. Never mind the fact that she purposely acted coquettish in front of Yazhe, she constantly tried to get closer to Little Yichen as well. In your opinion, is she pulling some tricks to gain status through her son?”

Mu Wanrou’s eyes were overflowing with sorrow as she continued, “Little Yichen has never been close to me. I’m afraid that she’ll play some tricks to separate us mother and son! Grandpa, you be the judge; is she being too much?”

Recalling the day of the gala when Yun Shishi and Mu Yazhe were being intimate with each other in the dance floor, her heart ached terribly.

“Is she an actress?” Grandpa Mu snorted with contempt. He was an old-fashioned person and was never fond of the entertainment industry, especially female stars. He always thought that they had ulterior motives and questionable backgrounds. None of them was a good apple!

Celebrities were the most frowned upon among the rich. In today’s context, celebrities were extremely well-regarded, yet, to affluent people of the older generations, they were considered to be tacky. There was a saying, ‘W*ores are heartless and actors are immoral’, and it was not exactly prejudiced. Thus, people from the high society truly looked down on those working in show business.

Mu Wanrou gritted her teeth and nodded. “Mm! She used some sort of underhanded means to enter the entertainment industry. What do you think, grandpa? Did she do that on purpose?”

“Hmph! An actress from an unknown background. If that brat dares to bring her into the family, then he shall see what I can do!” Grandpa Mu was so enraged his lips trembled. He knocked the walking stick against the floor and mocked, “I can’t stand looking at those lowly artistes. Also, back then, it was made clear in the contract that she’s not to compete for custody rights, or she’d suffer the consequences! If she tries to act willful now, then she’ll definitely get what’s coming to her!”

Mu Wanrou chuckled to herself upon hearing this, but she continued to put on a helpless expression as she said, “What if Yazhe shields her? What then, grandpa? You know how some women are born to be vixens; they’re born to seduce men—”

“HE DARES?!”

“How will he not dare?” She pouted and said indignantly, “He didn’t return home for two days. He’s certainly together with that woman! Grandpa, you have to be my judge!”

“WHAT?!” Mu Sheng burst into a fury and glared. “I’ll punish him properly when he comes back! Rou’er, don’t be sad; grandpa here will back you up!”

“Mm!” She nodded in glee.

Grandpa Mu might be over 60 years old, but during his prime, he was a person who had braved countless storms and did things viciously. If she were to rely on his viciousness to eradicate this eyesore and thorn in the flesh called Yun Shishi, then she needed not step in personally.

He was, clearly, still livid with rage. He raised his chin to scan the surroundings and asked with a strange expression on his face, “Where’s Yichen?”

She hastily inquired to the housekeeper behind them, “Where’s your young master?”

“Young master is having his early morning training at the archery center.”

“Call him over for breakfast.”

“Yes!”

She settled down and cautiously extended her hand to caress Grandpa Mu’s chest. She cooed affectionately, “Grandpa, don’t get mad. Why will you get angry over some w*etch?”

“Okay. I’ll listen to you. I’m not getting angry; I’m not getting angry. After having breakfast, take me out for a walk, so I can get some fresh air!” He happily held her hand. The anger on his face then dissipated.
