CHAPTER 143: CHAPTER 143: SPITING OTHERS WITHOUT BENEFITING ONESELF

Mu Beiting pressed his lips together, no longer wanting to waste words with him, and directly bypassed him with large strides and left.

"Mu Beiting, that woman will ruin you, Mu Beiting...!" Mu Huajian angrily shouted behind him, but no matter how loudly he yelled, Mu Beiting still walked away without looking back.

Watching Mu Beiting’s determined departing figure, Mu Huajian’s old face turned alternating shades of blue and white.

Suddenly, he clutched his left chest where his heart was, his face lost all color, his body wavered a couple of times, and he staggered backward a few steps. Luckily, there was a sofa behind him, and as his body was about to give out, he supported himself with his hands on the sofa.

The butler happened to walk in at this time. Seeing Mu Huajian’s abnormal expression, he hurried over to support him and anxiously asked, "Master, what’s wrong?"

Mu Huajian took deep breaths and, using all his strength, managed to say weakly, "Medicine, quickly get my medicine! It’s in the study upstairs!"

"I’ll go right away!" The butler nodded without a moment’s delay, hurried to the second floor, took the medicine from the desk, poured some water, and handed it all to Mu Huajian.

Mu Huajian quickly swallowed the medicine with the water.

"Master, let me help you to the sofa to rest for a bit!"

Mu Huajian nodded, and only then did the butler help him to sit on the sofa.

"I’ll call the family doctor!" the butler said as he prepared to make a call, but Mu Huajian stopped him with his hand, "No need, I’ll be fine in a while! Bring me the phone!"

"Yes!" The butler complied, hurriedly bringing over Mu Huajian’s phone.

Mu Huajian lowered his head, stared at the phone for a while, then sighed helplessly and dialed a series of numbers.

The call quickly connected, and after talking with the other party for a while, Mu Huajian hung up the phone.

The butler stood by the side, though he didn’t speak, he knew that the person on the other end was the president of the Ji Group!

In the end, the master still couldn’t win against the young man and had to compromise. The master, who had been maneuvering in the business world for decades, couldn’t outmaneuver a son just in his thirties! For someone who’s often at the pinnacle of victory, it’s such a sad thing.

"Sigh, I’m ultimately getting old!" Mu Huajian sighed helplessly, hung up the phone, and placed it on the coffee table.

The butler, feeling compassionate, hurriedly consoled him, "Master, don’t overthink. Though he appears cold, after all, the blood of the Mu Family runs through his veins! He still cares about you deep down!"

"Really? These words can’t even deceive yourself, so how can they comfort me? Beiting’s heart has never been with the Mu Family!" Mu Huajian said helplessly, slowly stood up from the sofa, staggered a bit, and slowly made his way upstairs.

Watching Mu Huajian’s tottering back, the butler felt a pang of sorrow.

On the other side, after Mu Beiting left the villa, he got directly into the car.

Once Mu Beiting was in the car, Yan Qinghan eagerly asked, "How did it go? What did the old man say?"

"Give the order to withdraw all funding from the Ji Group!" Mu Beiting’s expression was cold, and just as he finished speaking, the phone of Liu Wenhao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly rang.

Liu Wenhao glanced at the caller ID, answered the call, and after the person on the other end reported the full situation, he then told Mu Beiting, "President, the Ji Group informed us that they plan to immediately resume the project."

Mu Beiting remained expressionless, "No need! Do as I said before!"

"President!" both Pete and Liu Wenhao spoke at the same time, wanting Mu Beiting to change his mind. But when they received his gaze, sharper than a blade, the words were forcibly swallowed back.

Yan Qinghan was fiddling with his long fingers and said with a mischievous smile, "Just follow the orders! Rest assured, your president naturally has a plan! Now, just take us to the hotel!"

Pete asked cautiously, "What does President Yan mean?"

Yan Qinghan blinked his captivating eyes and confidently said, "Go to the hotel! I guarantee that before tomorrow morning, the Ji Group president will definitely show up at the hotel! Your president is fishing! Since we’re here, we should make Ji Group remember the lesson!"

"Yes!" Pete, having followed Mu Beiting for several years, wasn’t doing it for nothing! Although Yan Qinghan didn’t say it clearly, she immediately grasped the meaning behind his words.

It seems the BOSS wants to give the Ji Group a lesson! He thought so! How could the Ji Group do something like inflicting a thousand damages to the enemy at the cost of eight hundred to themselves!

The car slowly drove through the night, Liu Wenhao taking Mu Beiting and Yan Qinghan to the best hotel in J City!

Wanting to see the show, Yan Qinghan unashamedly stayed in Mu Beiting’s room, refusing to leave no matter what.

Mu Beiting couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to him, directly taking a clean set of clothes to the bathroom to take a shower.

When he finished showering and came out, he saw Yan Qinghan enthusiastically chatting on his phone.

He glanced at the phone in Yan Qinghan’s hand without much thought and continued to dry his hair while searching the room.

"Haha, this is so amusing!" Yan Qinghan continued chatting and laughing heartily, appearing to be in a very good mood.

Mu Beiting searched the room thoroughly, and finally couldn’t help but ask, "Where’s my phone?"

Yan Qinghan shook the phone he had just been chatting with in front of Mu Beiting’s face and said matter-of-factly, "It’s here with me? Why are you looking for your phone?"

"Looking for trouble!" Mu Beiting squeezed out the words between his teeth and snatched the phone from Yan Qinghan’s hand.

Yan Qinghan, feeling dissatisfied, jumped up trying to grab it back, "Hey, I was chatting enthusiastically with sis-in-law! Let me continue chatting!"

Mu Beiting’s eyes turned cold and he kicked out a foot.

Caught off guard, Yan Qinghan was kicked squarely in the chest.

"Ouch!" Yan Qinghan let out a wail as he fell on his back to the ground.

"Get lost!" Mu Beiting tightly gripped the phone in his hand and squeezed out the word through gritted teeth.

Yan Qinghan got up from the floor, rubbing his chest where Mu Beiting had kicked him, and complained, "Hey, can we still play nicely or not?"

Mu Beiting ignored him, opened the phone, and checked everything carefully!

Three missed calls, countless messages!

Mu Beiting opened the messages and read through the entire conversation between Ye Anxin and Yan Qinghan! The further he read, the darker his face became.

"Uh...!" Noticing something amiss, Yan Qinghan touched his nose and tried to explain, "Uh, the thing is! Uh... didn’t sis-in-law call you three times? I was afraid she’d be sad thinking you ignored her calls! So... uh... that’s why I pretended to be you to chat with her... uh... that’s it... yes... that’s the truth of the matter!"

Mu Beiting raised an eyebrow with the phone in hand, "So, you used your tactics for dealing with your harem to deal with her?"
