Chapter 90 - Conditions
Ye Xin was defeated just like that.
Ye Cheng reached out and rubbed his temples. He could feel a headache coming on.
Ye Xin could not lose Mu Chen and neither could the Ye family. Therefore, he could only start on Song Ning.
Ye Cheng brought his phone out. When the call connected, he ordered, “Investigate Song Ning, the woman who went to the police station with Ye Xin that day. Make sure the investigation is thorough; don’t leave out the slightest detail.”
He leaned back on the seat, exhausted. The girl with the pure eyes and cold expression flashed in his mind. Indeed, she was rather attractive. However, she was not as eye-catching as his sister.
Ye Xin’s beauty was bright and flamboyant, somewhat fierce. Perhaps, this had something to do with her personality and the environment she grew up in.
Song Ning’s beauty, however, was quiet and unassuming, but it made people unable to look away from her. She was like a lotus blooming in the lake, fresh, distant, and unobtainable, that could only be admired from afar.
Indeed, only such a woman was worthy of Mu Chen. Ye Xin, in the end, was inferior.
From a man’s point of view, he understood Song Ning’s appeal and could tell Mu Chen was sincere. In fact, he was slightly moved as well.
…
Mu Chen rushed to Song Ning’s office just as Professor Li brought his other students back to the office.
Jia Hui did not have time to greet Mu Chen and asked Professor Li Sen, “Professor, how did it go? Did they make things difficult for you? Will they make things difficult for Song Ning?”
Song Ning had already risen to her feet and stood at the side quietly. It was as though she was waiting to be reprimanded.
Upon hearing these words, Mu Chen asked, “What happened?”
Li Sen frowned when he saw Mu Chen. “Why did you only come now? If you’d come earlier, you would’ve been able to save a damsel in distress.”
Mu Chen thought that Professor Li Sen was talking about Ye Cheng. Before he walked out, he said, “I’m going to settle the scores with him.”
Li Sen sighed before he motioned Jiahui to stop him.
Jiahui rolled her eyes. “President Mu, listen first. This is another matter. It has nothing to do with Ye Cheng!”
At this moment, Mu Chen finally remembered Jiahui had sent him a message on WeChat, telling him about the Fu family making things difficult for Song Ning. He looked at Li Sen. “Professor?”
Li Sen sighed. “I’m already an old man, but I still have to worry about your love life. My life is too busy”
Jiahui was very tactful. She hurriedly said, “Professor, let me massage your shoulders!”
Another classmate hurriedly pushed a chair over to Li Sen before inviting Li Sen to sit down and enjoy the massage.
Jiahui skillfully found the correct acupuncture point and pressed it.
The professor inhaled deeply, looking much more comfortable. Then, he finally looked at his beloved student and pointed at Mu Chen, “You’ve already decided on him?”
Song Ning looked at Mu Chen and lowered her head in embarrassment. She said softly, “Yes.”
Mu Chen could not help but laugh.
Jiahui and the two male students joked around. Then, she said in a low voice, “This laugh can bring disaster to the country and the people. Who can resist it?”
The male student knocked her head lightly, “You’re a girl. Watch your image!”
Li Sen said to Song Ning, “He definitely thinks he’s able to protect you; shelter you from the rain and storm. However, I think half of the rain and storm will be caused by him!”
Mu Chen’s expression turned grim.
Song Ning hurriedly said, “Professor, the matter with the Fu family has nothing to do with him.”
Li Sen said, “Both of you are married so it has something to do with him.” Since he was unaware that Jiahui had already spoken to Mu Chen, he recounted what happened to Mu Chen.
Nevertheless, Mu Chen listened patiently.
“After both of the girls left, Mr. Fu and Old Madam Fu promised me to donate a laboratory to the hospital as long as Song Ning agrees to marry Fu Le. I had no idea our Song Ning is so valuable. If I knew earlier, I would’ve asked President Mu for more betrothal gifts. You’re really lucky, kid.”
Jiahui asked anxiously, “Professor, you agreed to their request?”
Li Sen glared at her. “Am I the kind of person who would sell his students for money? Moreover, if I want a lab, I can ask President Mu. I’m sure he won’t refuse me. Right?”
Mu Chen said without hesitating, “Two labs and a staff dormitory!”
Li Sen stared at Mu Chen in shock before he turned to Song Ning and said, “You married the right person!”
Song Ning was rendered speechless.
As Li Sen enjoyed Jiahui’s massage, he said to Mu Chen, “I told the Fu family that it’s up to Song Ning who she marries. The hospital and the university have no right to dictate who she marries. Moreover, she’s such an excellent student that we won’t question her ability because of her personal matters. Moreover, I told them they won’t be able to slander her since Young Master Fu and the young nurse’s matters are known by everyone. There’s no problem with Song Ning’s character at all. It’s useless even if they look for the dean or the hospital’s director.”
Jiahui who was energetically massaging Li Sen scoffed and said, “The dean is my father! If he dares to give in to those people, I’ll run away from home and change my surname!”
Li Sen turned around and patted Jiahui. “Hey, don’t you trust your father at all? Be careful he doesn’t break your leg!”
Mu Chen bowed respectfully to Li Sen. “Thank you, Professor Li!”
Li Sen felt at ease when he saw Mu Chen’s sincerity.
“Can I have Song Ning for half a day?” Mu Chen held Song Ning’s hand.
Li Sen scratched his head. “The laboratories and dormitory…”
Mu Chen smiled. “It’s a done deal!”
Li Sen waved his hand. “Alright, bring my student out to have fun!”
