Without a son, there would be no progeny!
Her husband and mother-in-law had looked down on her as a result of that . Hence, she had been finding ways and means to adopt a son so that, when they were old and infirm, he could look after them .
“You can be my son and I’ll look after you . I’ll be good to you, all right? Come follow me!” The woman wanted to save face and continued to coax him along .
He simply refused, “No!”
Lingling spread her arms to shield him behind her . “Auntie Feng, even if Youyou were abandoned by his parents, he would be with us, not you!”

Everyone laughed .
A sensible child stepped forward and said, “Auntie, he is timid so you shouldn’t frighten him in this way!”
Saying that, he turned to the boy and Lingling . “Auntie Feng is just teasing you . He he!”
The boy was vexed .
He disliked being teased by the adults .
Besides, he was a smart boy and could see that the auntie was only pulling his leg . If this were to happen to other kids, they would have burst into tears in fright .

At Disheng Financial Group’s office, the equity transfer ceremony was supposed to start at twelve noon . However, Mu Linfeng had postponed it repeatedly to a time slot in the afternoon .
Inside the CEO’s office, Mu Yazhe sat at the desk while mindlessly playing with the ZIPPO lighter in his hand .
His second uncle was seen sitting on the couch at one end without a word . Besides Mu Lianjue, the rest of the major shareholders were present .
The directorship meeting in Disheng was formed by the family members from the Mu . Mu Yazhe was the biggest shareholder, followed by his second uncle, and then Mu Shumin .
Mu Shumin’s mother was the first wife of Mu Sheng; she was considered as Mu Yazhe’s senior within the family hierarchy .
Because of her status in the family, she was prominent in the political arena . Thus, there was hardly a need for her to join any board meeting normally .
It was different this time, though .
A piece of news came that her nephew was going to transfer his shares to Mu Lianjue!
She was the first to oppose this when she heard it from Mu Linfeng .
Before the young chap arrived at the office, his second uncle already gave the gist to all the members at the meeting . He told them that the man was giving away his shares willingly for the sake of a woman!
Everyone could not believe their ears when they heard that . This was because they had seen what the young man had gone through to climb up to this prestigious seat inside the Mu empire at a tender age of twenty-seven!
One must know all the intricacies and all the intrigue surrounding this complex family . There was so much in-fighting and many competitions that a member had to face and fight before reaching the seat of honor . What the man had accomplished was no mere feat!
The issue was that many had surrendered in the end when they faced an opponent like Mu Yazhe despite putting up a tough fight .
