Unexpectedly, Bei Shuo asked her question calmly and it made him relax.
Bei Shuo handed the snacks to them and said with a smile, “Try them. By the way, it’s Saturday today. Do you guys need to work?”
Mu Ci gestured for Gu Ming to take the plate. “We have work to do. You can play by yourself.”
Bei Shuo nodded. “Alright, I’ll wait for Shen Su. Call me if you need anything. I’ll send it up for you. Remember to eat the snacks. They’re delicious!”
She watched as Gu Ming pushed Mu Ci’s wheelchair into the elevator, not forgetting to remind him from behind.
Mu Ci reached out a hand and waved his palm outward, indicating that he understood.
Bei Shuo turned around happily and was about to go to the kitchen to get more snacks when Bei Le stopped her.
Bei Le’s face darkened as she asked fiercely, “Why is Gu Ming here?”
Bei Shuo was stunned. She turned around and looked at the two of them who had already entered the elevator. She asked, “Didn’t you hear us just now?”
Of course, Bei Le heard it.
However, she did not understand what Gu Ming meant.
Was he here to be Mu Ci’s assistant because of her? Was he taking revenge on her?
She panicked for no reason, so she vented her anger on Bei Shuo. She said sternly, “You just want to take revenge on me, right? You just can’t stand to see me doing well, right? What grudges do you have with me? Why are you treating me like this?”
Bei Shuo was baffled. “Bei Le, can you speak properly? What’s wrong with you?”
Bei Shuo’s mind was filled with the delicious snacks from the kitchen. She was very unhappy with Bei Le’s unreasonable behavior.
Bei Le thought that Bei Shuo was pretending to be stupid. She grabbed Bei Shuo’s arm. “Tell me clearly. What do you want? Do you want to use Gu Ming to threaten me? Don’t even think about it! Bei Shuo! I let you live until today because I pity you and can’t be bothered to argue with you! Don’t be ungrateful.
Don’t force me—”
“Let go!” Bei Le was pushed away by a strong force.
She stopped in her tracks and saw a tall and thin woman holding onto Bei Shuo’s arm to inspect it. She had used too much strength just now and her nails had dug into Bei Shuo’s flesh, leaving shallow traces of blood.
“Who are you? Why are you so heavy-handed?” The woman turned around and reprimanded Bei Le.
She was Shen Su.
Bei Le’s heart sank. When she saw Mu En standing beside Shen Su and looking at her expressionlessly, Bei Le’s tears welled up.
“Sister—” Bei Le’s voice trembled as she looked at Bei Shuo.
Bei Shuo frowned at the wound on her arm and raised her hand to stop her. “Stop! Stop acting. I won’t fall for this.”
Shen Su also frowned. “Who is this? Why is the Mu Family bullying us to this extent?”
She turned around and looked at Mu En, thinking that this was some young lady from the Mu Family.
Mu En hurriedly smiled and said, “Don’t be like this, Shen Su. You have a prejudice against the Mu Family. This is not Miss Mu, but my sister-in-law’s younger sister. Her name is Bei I.e.”
He glanced at Bei Le with a warning gaze.
Bei Le’s gaze slowly lowered, and tears fell like broken beads. She looked pitiful.
Shen Su said, “Tsk! Why is she so fierce one second and pure innocent the next? Mu En, is this girl like this because she saw you?”
Mu En hurriedly smiled apologetically. “You’re wronged me.”
Bei Shuo’s gaze swept between the two of them, not daring to confirm if they were related.
Mu En and Bei Le were both experts in acting.
“Alright, bring me to your room. I’ll help you disinfect it. Her nails are so long. I wonder if they have germs.” Shen Su pulled Bei Shuo’s hand and left Mu En aside.
However, Bei Shuo said, “I’ll bring you to the kitchen first. They made especially delicious snacks today. I guarantee you’ll like them!” Shen Su smiled and said, “Can you still be more promising?”
“Why should I be successful in front of you? Aren ‘t you jealous that I’m successful?” Bei Shuo asked seriously.
“Bei Shuo!” Shen Su gritted her teeth.
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked away with their arms around each other’s shoulders.
Bei Le looked at Mu En with teary eyes and called out softly, “Brother—” “Ahem.” Mu En coughed heavily and interrupted Bei Le.
He lowered his voice and said, “Don’t ruin my business! You’re fine.”
The first sentence was harsh and cold, but the second sentence carried infinite warmth.
Bei Le’s heart was filled with mixed emotions. Looking at Mu En’s back, she forced herself to straighten her back and grit her teeth to calm herself down.
She could not be defeated by anyone. Mu En was hers, and the position of the Mu Family’s Second Young Mistress was also hers!
She wanted to accompany Mu En to become the Mu Family’s heir.. She wanted to become the future mistress of the Mu Family!
