Mu Che was very upset and his face was as dark as a storm. “Useless thing! You better explain this situation clearly and not try to smear your brother!”
Lin Kerou was a weeping beauty and looked very pitiful as she cried.
Wu Meiya always liked her. Ever since Mu Donglin’s birthday party, she especially disliked Li Beinian.
At this time, her heart was broken after seeing Lin Kerou cry like that.
She looked at Donglin and said, “Donglin, say something. What exactly happened?”
Mu Donglin was very upset as well. “There’s nothing between Kerou and me. We have never been together. I will investigate this recording. Someone must have meddled with it!”
As he spoke, he glared at Mu Xichen.
Mu Xichen looked up and raised his lips slightly. “The person must possess magic power, then. The recording was played from your phone. Are you going to smear me again?”
Li Beinian couldn’t hold back her laughter. She immediately looked down and her shoulders trembled slightly.
Who else could it be but him!
Besides him, who would have the motive to do something like this?
Old Master Li realized that Li Beinian was acting strangely and shouted, “Nian Nian, don’t cry! Grandpa will help you!”
Li Beinian almost laughed out loud, but she covered her mouth and bit her palm.
However, she bit herself with too much force and the pain made her look teary-eyed.
She walked behind Old Master Li and back-faced the crowd.
Her shoulders trembled slightly but there was no sound.
In everyone’s eyes, there was no doubt that she was crying in grief.
“How pitiful. Some people not only want to cheat on others but put the blame on innocent people.”
“I really did not expect Young Master Mu to be such a person!”
“Last time, she even said to call off the engagement. How can this continue?”
“Call of the engagement!” Old Master Li demanded. “He made a mistake yet he tried to accuse someone else. A man like this is not worthy of our Nian Nian!”
After hearing this, there was an uproar.
Mu Donglin was not worthy of Li Beinian?
Considering appearance and family background, any trait of his was enough to make women go crazy!
Moreover, the Li Family was in a dire situation. Without her marriage with the Mu Family…
“Dad, you have to think about it carefully!” Li Haoqin anxiously said.
Although there was a conflict, he still wanted to get the benefits from the Mu Family.
However, the Old Master was about to call off the engagement just like that!
How could this be?!
Not only Li Haoqin, but the others were also worried.
“Uncle, please consider carefully.”
“Exactly, Second Uncle. You have to think about it!”
“Grandpa, Nian Nian still likes Young Master Mu. They are a happy couple!”
Li Haoran was no longer calm. He got up, supported the Old Master, and said, “Dad, how about you sit down and see what the children say.”
“No way!” Mu Che said decisively.
How would the other families perceive the Mu Family if this happened?
Reputation was extremely important.
If outsiders found out that the engagement was broken by the small Li Family, they would be humiliated.
If Mu Donglin ended the engagement with Li Beinian, it was still acceptable.
However, if Li Beinian rejected it?
Definitely not!
After speaking, Mu Che’s face fell. “There’s no way that Donglin would voluntarily entangle himself with Nian Nian when he’s engaged to Lin Kerou. There must be a misunderstanding!”
Lin Kerou had hurt Mu Donglin’s reputation many times. He would never accept a woman like that as his daughter-in-law!
Since things were like that, she would be the sacrifice till the end.
