Chapter 455: Meeting Master Mu!!
Chapter 455: Meeting Master Mu!!
After school, bidding goodbye to the boys, just as Sia and the rest of the girls made their way back to their dorm, they saw a young woman dressed in a professional suit standing at the entrance.
Initially, the girls did not pay any attention to this young woman, but when they saw her walking toward them expressionlessly, they stopped in their tracks and looked at the young lady curiously.
Walking towards the group expressionlessly, the young woman stopped before Sia and bowed slightly before saying respectfully "Miss Sia, my master would like to meet you"
Raising her eyebrows, Sia looked at the young woman in interest. On the other hand, the rest of the girls exchanged glances curiously.
................
Not far away from the school, inside a cafe, a middle-aged woman sipped her tea elegantly before putting it down gently and looking up at the young girl sitting in front.
Scrutinizing the girl up to down, the middle aged could not resist praising "You are indeed very beautiful"
"...."
"No wonder Mu Jun fell for you" the lady continued commenting
rolling her eyes, Sia looked at the middle-aged woman who was trying to look noble.
The woman in front was none other than the other woman who caused Mu Jun's family to fall apart.
Though this woman was very hateful, it was a fact that she looked pretty. Though she was already over forty, she looked not more than thirty-five, thanks to all the money she had been receiving from master Mu.
Recalling how this woman broke a happy family and cause pain to her boyfriend, Sia felt very annoyed just looking at her.
Waving her hand in annoyance, Sia looked at the middle-aged woman indifferently and said "You can stop beating around the bush, I don't have time to waste with some old lady"
'Old lady? Me?' being called old lady for the first time, Yi Mingchen felt very annoyed.
Scoffing at the young lady in disdain, she motioned to her assistant with her eyes.
Nodding her head, the assistant unhurriedly took out a check for ten million dollars before passing it to Sia.
Glancing at the check, Sia raised her eyebrows with interest and said "Are you going to play the same old plot? Giving a check to the female lead and asking her to get out of the male lead life?"
"That's right. A poor bumpkin like you isn't suitable for my stepson, So stay away from him. It's better if you could just disappear from his life and settle somewhere else" Yi Mingchen said in disdain
Raising her eyebrows, Sia picked up the check and looked at the amount and waved the cheque in the air, and asked sarcastically "Does the heir of the Mu family only amount to this much?"
"Being too greedy is not good. Though my stepson's worth is much more than this, your worth is only this much" Yi Mingchen sneered
"Oh? Is it? Then may I know what is your, a mistress's worth?" Sia sneered
"You! How dare you call me that" Yi Mingchen fumed
The lady who was usually poised at any point of time was now fuming in anger just because of a few words said by a young lady. By this, one could say how nicely Sia had grasped the latter's weakness.
Seeing the middle-aged woman losing her cool so easily, Sia no longer felt interested in teasing her.
Picking up the check from the table, Sia stood up from the table and said "If you have nothing more to say, I'll take my leave now. Ah! Also" waving the check in her hand, Sia smiled "Thank you for your warm welcome, Mistress...Yi"
Smirking at the middle-aged woman's infuriated look, Sia turned around and walked out of the cafe.
Just as Sia stepped out, she heard a furious scream from behind. Shaking her head helplessly, just as Sia stepped out, she was stopped by a middle-aged man in a black suit.
Bowing his head slightly, The middle-aged gentleman smiled politely and said "Miss, my master would like to meet you"
Rolling her eyes, Sia thought inwardly "What day is it? Why is everyone rushing to meet me?"
Though annoyed, Sia still followed after the middle-aged gentleman and headed to the luxury restaurant on the opposite side of the road.
Inside the private room, an intense battle was going on between Master Mu and Sia.
None of them was willing to back down as they continued to stare at each other.
At last, it was Master Mu who finally made a move
"No wonder my son fell for you. You are indeed very interesting" Master Mu praised her in approval.
Rolling her eyes, Sia scoffed "No wonder I feel my boyfriend is far better than Mr. Mu. At least he was not so superficial to fall for me just because he felt I was interesting"
Raising his eyebrow at the sharp-tongued lady, Mr. Mu shook his head and asked "Do you like my son?"
"Do I need to answer that?" Sia asked indifferently
"Yeah"
"For what good reason" Sia asked
"Because I'm his father, and for his sake, I need you to give me a definite answer" Mr. Mu answered
"Why? So that you can give me a check and ask for a breakup or send me away?" Sia sneered sarcastically
Not taking her sarcasm to heart, Mr. Mu continued to speak indifferently "If I had wanted to do that I wouldn't have asked you the question in the first place"
"Oh! that's true"
"So, do you like him?"
Looking at Master Mu, Sia thought it for a moment and decided to be frank "Yeah, I do"
"That's great. I don't care whether you love him because of his wealth, power, look, or heart. As long as you can love my son wholeheartedly and keep his heart warm, I won't interfere in your relationship. But... In case you hurt my son, I won't let you off even at the expense of worsening my relationship with my son" Master Mu warned coldly
"How surprising to hear it from the person who hurt him the most" Sia sneered coldly
Hearing that Master Mu's hand holding tea paused but he regained his composure very soon.
Sipping the tea gently, he said with self-mockery "looks like he has a very bad impression about his father"
"Yeah, he does" Sia nodded her head sincerely, not hesitating to add on to his misery.
Hearing Sia's words, Mr. Mu's lips twitched. Looks like the one who would suffer in the future would be him and not his son.
Not wanting to delve into the topic, Mr. Mu asked casually "Why did you take the check then?"
"Looks like a certain someone couldn't wait to go back home to tattle tail"
Hearing that Ms. Mu did not make any comments
"My parents have thought me to be polite to elders. Since that old lady 'So Kindly' gave me a meeting gift, how can I as a junior say no?"
'pfft' hearing Sia call the Yi Mingchen an old lady, the assistant almost laughed out loudly
Looking at the young girl making an 'I'am obedient' face, Master Mu felt his lips twitch.
Sipping on his tea, Master Mu looked at his watch and said "It's been long since you came. You should head back now or else I'm afraid your hero might accuse me of kidnapping you"
"Oh...well then, I'll take my leave," Sia said and turned around to walk out, not bothering to pretend to be polite.
Just as Sia reached the door, she suddenly paused on her steps and said "Negative things were not the only thing he said"
Pausing on his action, Master Mu and the assistant looked up at Sia in confusion.
Turning her body slightly, Sia looked at master Mu seriously and continued "I could see happiness and warmth in his eyes when he spoke about his childhood. He looked extremely happy and proud when he spoke about his father and the way he treated his family. The reason I said this is because I just want to let you know that you still have the chance to rectify your mistake. Don't wait until it's too late and regret it"
"And yeah, you can ignore me if your found my words unpleasant to hear...bye"
Watching Sia leave, Master Mu looked outside the window absentmindedly and said "I too wish to end this as soon as possible but the god seems to be unwilling to do so"
Hearing that Master Mu's assistant sighed and silently retreated.
