Chapter 721: WHAT WILL YOU GIVE ME IN RETURN?
Mu Lan "Darling…." Mu Feng came forward and hugged her in front of everyone.
Qi Ying twisted her body. "What are you doing? Get off. Everyone is watching." She blushed.
"Rascal! What do you think you are doing to my granddaughter-in-law?" Grandpa Mu snapped and roared.
Mu Feng didn't heed to him and said, "I'm hugging my life partner. Who the hell are you to tell me what to do?"
Mu Lan knocked his head and gave grandpa Mu Cheng a big smile. "Grandfather, how are you? I missed you."
Mu Cheng coughed to hide his happy expression. "I'm fine. I… missed you too…."
Mu Liang let his presence know. "Your grandson missed you very much."
Mu Cheng glared at his favorite grandson. "Now you remember your grandfather. Where were you all this time? Butler Leo couldn't tell where you two were. This rascal You made us all worried."
"We were out of network service for a while to capture some enemies. They won't be able to bother us anymore." Mu Lan replied. She looked around and asked, "Where is mother-in-law?"
Qi Ying replied, "Her business is thriving. I assigned an assistant for her so that she could work less. But her work increased. She didn't come back here last night. I'm thinking about hiring another assistant." She was still struggling to get away from Mu Feng.
Mu Lan smiled as she heard it. "That's wonderful. Where is Yan Su? Why can't I see her?"
"She vomited all night and went back to sleep." Qi Ying moved away from Mu Feng and grabbed Mu Lan's hand. "You became tanned. It must have been hard for you. Let's go to the beauty parlor. I have some free time."
Mu Lan's eyes shown. "Sure, I would love that."
They walked away together. When they were alone in the corridor, Mu Lan asked in a low tone, "How's Yan Su holding up?"
Qi Ying shook her head. "Not good. When she first realized that she was pregnant, she immediately wanted to abort it. Only I know how I stopped her. I called Xiao Lin first but she was unavailable. Maybe she wasn't in Germany. Then I called you. However, I couldn't reach you. After that, I called Mu Feng. I couldn't get him either. When I saw no other way, I called Butler Leo. He said that you people all went missing. I was so scared."
Mu Lan gave her a light pat on her left shoulder. "You did well."
"I'm glad nothing bad happened to you." Qi Ying said.
"You look more and more like a mistress of the household." Mu Lan teased while smiling.
Qi Ying blushed. "I always wanted to be one."
Mu Lan was happy to hear that. "Hah, then I made your dream come true. Come on, tell me, what will you give me in return?"
Qi Ying snickered. "I'm holding this title temporarily. Why will I give you gift? You should give me a gift since I'm doing your job."
Mu Lan wouldn't back down so easily. She said, "Who said this is a temporary job? I gave the title to you in front of everyone formally. I have no desire to rake the responsibility back. I won't interfere with your decision either. Whatever your decision will be, is absolute."
QI Ying stopped in her track and grabbed her friend's hand. "Do you know what you are saying?"
"Did you think I took the decision hastily?" Mu Lan asked back.
Qi Ying was confused. "But this doesn't make sense. You are the eldest…"
Mu Lan sighed. "I think we passed this episode before."
She grabbed Qi Ying's both shoulders with her hands and continued, "Listen, I have no intention of taking responsibility. I'm happy with my duplex little house and I want to roam around the world with my beloved. With my dreams like this, do you think that I will be able to fulfill my duty? And look at you. You are born lady. Your dream is to take care of your family. You don't take decision based on what you hear. Your decision is always justified and you care for others. You are a worthy mistress of the Mu Household."
She smiled and told her friend, "I know you will do well, because you are worthy. And I know you are enjoying it."
"But what if I mess up?" Qi Ying's heart raced.
"Did you think I'm gone for good? You can always ask for help. You can find me or Head Butler Noel or mother-in-law." Mu Lan patted her head. "Why are you so nervous? You are doing great right now. Seeing you like this making me almost bow to you."
"Oh, don't be silly." Qi Ying shyly said and both of them went to their beauty parlor.
"I still want a gift." Mu Lan said while walking.
Qi Ying laughed.
Three hours later, Mu Lan took bath and went to look for Yan Su. She was in the guest room eating breakfast. In the past month she became skinny. It was probably because she vomited a lot as she suffered from morning sickness.
Seeing her long-waited friend, Yan Su screamed while eating, "Lan dear!"
"I missed the way you call me." Mu Lan came forward with a big smile and hugged her. "You have been through a lot."
Yan Su observed her face and said, "And look at your ugly face. Did you want to be as tanned as me? If I knew that you were in the sea beach to enjoy your youth…"
"Hey, hey, don't insult my natural beauty the moment you see me. I heard that you started throwing up." Mu Lan said.
Yan Su gritted her teeth. "Yeah… that Lu Feng, I will kill him. Let him come to me."
"Before you beat him up, what are you going to do about the child?" Mu Lan asked softly.
Yan Su lowered her head. She didn't speak for a long time. Mu Lan didn't force her and gave her time to think about it.
In the end, Yan Su declared, "I want to abort the child."
