Chapter 616: Side Story 029 If you’re a man, don’t hurt Xin Zaozao (Second update)
After Xin Zaozao left.
Mu Cidian went online and, together with his studio staff, continued to develop the mobile game.
The phone rang.
Mu Cidian glanced at the caller ID.
He directly hung up.
The endless ringing of the phone persisted.
Mu Cidian finally gave in and answered.
As soon as the call was connected, Wan Quan’s furious voice came through: “Mu Cidian, you ungrateful son, where are you?!”
“You know exactly where I am.”
“Come back to me!”
“I’m not coming back.”
“Mu Cidian!”
“I told you, I’m not coming back, if there’s nothing else, I’m going to turn off my phone.”
“Mu Cidian, do you have to act as Xin Zaozao’s gigolo? Do you have to grovel at her feet? Can’t you do some decent work? Are you worthy of our Mu ancestors?!”
“That’s my business.”
“Mu Cidian, come back to me, come back from Xin Zaozao!” Wan Quan’s voice was loud and shrill.
Mu Cidian said, “Mom, what on earth do you want?”
Mu Cidian put down his computer, took his phone and stepped away.
“Stay away from that cheap woman Xin Zaozao!”
“Okay, then let’s go back to living in our old house, going back to days where we can’t afford meals. Let’s give back everything you’re wearing, using and bought – return it, all of it, to Xin Zaozao!” Mu Cidian spoke harshly and didn’t hide his anger.
“Are you threatening me, Mu Cidian? You’re threatening me!”
“These things belong to Xin Zaozao. Since you dislike her so much, give them back!”
“Mu Cidian, are you provoking me!” Wan Quan screamed!
“I’m just presenting you the facts! The truth is, I am now pleasing Xin Zaozao for us to have a better life. If you really don’t want it, then give everything back to her.” Mu Cidian said, word for word.
Wan Quan was left speechless by Mu Cidian’s words.
She certainly didn’t want to go back to the bitter days of their past!
Mu Cidian said, “If you want a better life, don’t stir up trouble. If you can’t accept what I’m doing then pretend you don’t know! I promise, the only person Xin Zaozao will insult is me, just behave, she won’t come looking for you!”
“So Mu Cidian, you mean to say that, apart from pleasing women, you can’t find any other way for us mother and son to make a decent living? Are you now reliant on others to keep you?”
Mu Cidian, repressing his feelings, gritted out, “Mom, this is all I can tell you. If you can’t accept it, you can sever ties with me.”
After he finished.
Mu Cidian abruptly hung up the phone without any hesitation.
He really didn’t want to hear his mother’s non-stop nagging anymore.
Enough was enough.
If he could.
He genuinely wanted to sever all connections with her.
On many occasions, he found himself wishing how great it would be if Wan Quan were not his biological mother.
He was truly afraid that one day he would really abandon Wan Quan and sever all ties of mother and son with her.
He immediately shut down his phone.
Returning to his computer, he tried to calm his emotions and get back to work.
Just after 5 p.m.
Mu Cidian turned on his phone and texted Xin Zaozao.
He wanted to ask if she would be coming home for dinner tonight?
Just as he started typing, he hesitated and dialed her directly instead.
She answered.
“Are you coming home for dinner tonight?” asked Mu Cidian.
“This is Song Lifei,” answered the person on the other end.
Mu Cidian paused, then said, “Could you please let Xin Zaozao know and ask if she will be coming home for dinner tonight?”
“She won’t, she has a dinner engagement tonight.”
“Alright,” Mu Cidian nodded.
He was about to end the call.
Song Lifei suddenly said, “Mu Cidian, let’s have a chat.”
“Okay.”
“Wait for me a moment. I’ll call you from my personal phone.”
“Okay.”
Mu Cidian ended the call.
Secretary Yan watched Song Lifei.
Her heart was somewhat bitter.
In CEO Song’s eyes, except for Chairwoman Xin, probably no one else exists.
...
After receiving a phone call from Song Lifei, Mu Cidian had been standing by the French window.
In his mind, he kept repeating the words Song Lifei said: “If you’re a man, stop hurting Xin Zaozao.”
He smiled inexplicably.
The Xin Zaozao now, should be quite unassailable, right?
He adjusted his emotions.
Xin Zaozao wouldn’t be coming back for dinner tonight, and he himself wasn’t hungry either. The studio was also closed for the day, and he didn’t feel like working. After some thought, he dialed Yin Qin’s number.
Yin Qin was incredibly flabbergasted, “Mu Cidian, you’ve finally deigned to call me again? What, you have remembered an old friend? Wants to go out for a drink? Wants a heart-to-heart talk? I’m free tonight!”
Mu Cidian genuinely admired Yin Qin’s demeanor.
As if he could be nonchalant about anything, living carefree every day.
But in the end, Yin Qin was happy.
He said, “No, need a favor from you.”
“What’s up?” Yin Qin frowned, “I don’t loan out my wife.”
Mu Cidian smiled, “No, it’s...”
Mu Cidian suddenly stopped talking.
“What is it? Don’t beat around the bush, okay?” Yin Qin was a bit impatient.
Mu Cidian thought for a moment, “I’ll send you a message.”
“...What’s making Mu Cidian so tongue-tied.”
Yin Qin had to hang up the phone.
He casually picked up an apple from the coffee table and started eating.
A bit later, a message from Mu Cidian arrived.
The message read, “How are you in bed?”
Yin Qin instantly spat out all the apple chunks in his mouth.
Right in front of him, Xiaolang was playing with toys.
Xiaolang was sprayed all over his face.
Luo Xiaolang was playing with their son by the side.
Seeing Yin Qin’s appearance, her face immediately changed.
Yin Qin, scared, hurriedly wiped Xiaolang’s face.
Xiaolang actually thought it was fun and giggled non-stop.
While wiping, Yin Qin felt a chill down his spine.
He seemed to hear the sound of cracking joints next to him.
“Xiaolang...I ...I was just startled by a message from Mu Cidian, it wasn’t on purpose, look our Xiaolang thought I was playing a game with him.” Yin Qin hurriedly explained.
“Playing a game, right?” Luo Xiaolang gritted her teeth, “I’ll play with you.”
“Xiaolang, I am your dear husband, please be gentle...ah!”
The villa echoed with deafening noises.
Yin Bin and Miss Qin had just returned home from abroad few days ago. Just as they were descending the stairs with their son in their arms, they heard the sound of Yin Qin squealing like a pig, no need to guess, he was being disciplined by Xiaolang.
They went over.
Just as they arrived, they saw Yin Qin resisting, and in the process, pinning Luo Xiaolang onto the couch.
“I want to rise from oppression, peasants sing songs.”
The next second.
They did something “inappropriate for children.”
Xiaolang was still excited by the side.
Miss Qin was a bit speechless.
She picked up Xiaolang, and didn’t seem surprised, “Stop watching, your dad and mom are making a sister for you.”
“Ah!” Yin Qin screamed like a pig again.
Luo Xiaolang wiped her lips.
Her face was rather red at that moment.
She glared at Yin Qin and got up and walked away.
“Damn Luo Xiaolang, you don’t even know that you ruined your own happiness for the rest of your life.”
Luo Xiaolang ignored him.
“Didn’t we agree on another daughter?” Yin Qin looked somewhat wronged.
Actually, Luo Xiaolang’s face was quite red.
She just didn’t know why Yin Qin could be aroused by anything anywhere.
