Mr. Mu, stop bullying Professor Jian.

"I used to think that you didn't like the Mu family and didn't care about the Mu family." So I never thought about this issue, and I also helped my grandfather keep an eye on him.

"Am I missing you again now?" Mu Qingyuan raised his eyebrows and for the first time doubted whether he had underestimated his younger brother.

This question stumped Mu Qing'an. He thought about it and said, "That's not what I meant. I always feel that my elder brother will not abandon the Mu family..."

Mu Qingyuan snorted coldly and took the document from Mu Qingan. "What are the conditions for the transfer?"

Mu Qingan said anxiously: "I don't want money."

"No money, what do you want?"

Mu Qingyuan's deep eyes were filled with interest. He wanted to see what his adopted brother wanted.

Mu Qing'an secretly raised his eyes to observe Mu Qingyuan's expression, trying to see whether he was happy or angry, and to find out his depth.

Unfortunately, nothing was found.

He simply gave up guessing and said directly: "Brother, let's exchange equal value. Can I exchange it for shares of your company? I want to work with you in the future."

"My company?" Mu Qingyuan smiled, a little coldly.

Mu Qing'an nodded, his brother should have his own company.

Although he doesn't know the details, he is not stupid and he can guess.

"Is it okay?" Mu Qing'an asked weakly. Would his elder brother think he was scheming?

"make a deal!"

Mu Qingyuan took the agreement and said, "I'll let Fang Xinbai connect you tomorrow. I'll calculate the value of what you have tonight."

After saying that, Mu Qingyuan turned and left.

Mu Qing'an looked at that resolute figure with a bit of trepidation. He always felt that his elder brother was much colder to him when he went out than when he came in.

The next day, after finishing his lunch, Mu Qing'an reluctantly dragged his suitcase out. He looked back every few steps, but failed to get even a word of persuasion from his elder brother.

He just looked at Jian Zhinian who was standing beside him, holding his forehead and shaking his head.

"Come again next time if there's a chance." Jian Zhinian couldn't help but say.

Mu Qingan's eyes lit up, and he was immediately comforted. He said, "Okay, thank you, sister-in-law."

Based on this point alone, he thought Jian Zhinian was pretty good.

Mu Qingyuan watched quietly, glanced at Mu Qingan coldly, and said nothing, which was considered as tacit consent.

Time passed slowly and before I knew it it was the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

The day before the Mu Group’s shareholders’ meeting, Mu Qingyuan unexpectedly received a call—Song Xiuqi from Qianli Group wanted to meet him.

I thought it was a show of family protection and warning him, but I didn't expect Song Xiuqi to bring Song Liangjie along.

There were bruises on Song Liangjie's face from the beating he had done himself, and judging from his stiff body, the injuries on his back were also very serious. In short, he no longer had the sanctimonious and high-spirited look he once had, and instead looked a bit miserable.

Song Xiuqi asked Song Liangjie to apologize to Mu Qingyuan in person. In addition, he also gave 5% of the shares of Mu Group for free...

As arrogant and dirty as Song Liangjie was in the past, he is as aggrieved and cowardly now.

Mu Qingyuan was shocked. He thought that he did not have the strength to make the Song family lower their posture so much, so he spoke tentatively -

"Mr. Song, he should not apologize to me, and I don't want to be rewarded for my contribution. I dare not accept this 5% stake."

Unexpectedly, Song Xiuwen smiled faintly and said, "The Song family did something wrong, so they should apologize. Logically, they should apologize to Mr. Jian, but I think Mr. Jian definitely doesn't want to see this bastard again."

"Mr. Mu probably doesn't want Liang Jie to bother Mr. Jian again, right?"

"In this case, apologizing to President Mu in person can also be regarded as expressing the Song family's attitude. As for the 5% of shares, it was entrusted by someone, so President Mu can accept it without worry. Just regard it as Liang Jie's apology for disturbing Mr. Jian."

Entrusted by someone? To disturb Jian Zhinian's apology?

Mu Qingyuan's eyes moved. Although Song Xiuqi had made an appointment with him this time, it seemed that the person the Song family should apologize to in the end was Jian Zhinian.

Why not just ask Jian Zhinian?

Just don't want to disturb?

Mu Qingyuan couldn't figure it out, and Song Xiuqi didn't intend to explain it to him.

After doing all this, Song Xiuqi stood up and said goodbye, leaving Mu Qingyuan alone to sit in the teahouse for a long time.

After returning home, Mu Qingyuan briefly told Jian Zhinian about the incident, mentioning Song Xiuqi's name intentionally or unintentionally, as well as the Song family...

Jian Zhinian was also amazed: "The Song family is so upright and humble? They actually asked him to apologize in person?"

And they sent so many apology gifts...

Jian Zhinian felt that this apology gift was a bit too hot to handle, so he said, "Don't take it. Send it back."

Mu Qingyuan said: "I didn't take the document at that time. Later, Mr. Song's special assistant sent a message saying that if we really don't want to accept it, we can transfer it at a low price."

"Or, if I don't want to buy, the 5% of Mu's shares held by the Song family will continue to support me at the shareholders' meeting and the board of directors."

Are the Song family always so considerate when sending gifts?

Jian Zhinian was stunned and murmured, "Such a good thing fell from the sky? I always feel a little uneasy..."

“So, I bought that 5% stake.”

"That's the best. It will save you trouble in the future. It will also be helpful to you now."

"Ah."

Mu Qingyuan felt relieved when he saw that Jian Zhinian also had a confused look on his face and was worried about himself.

As long as the Song family has no intentions towards Jian Zhinian, or has any connection with him, we can just fight back against them.

Even if the Song family has any tricks up their sleeve, he just needs to be on guard.

But he didn't expect that some things he had not participated in before were already a foregone conclusion...

That night, Mu Qingyuan opened a bottle of red wine. Putting aside the affairs of the Song family, he seemed to be in a good mood and even poured a glass for Jian Zhinian.

"Zhizhi, it's great to have you around!"

When he was slightly tipsy, Mu Qingyuan slightly bent his index finger, lifted Jian Zhinian's chin, and looked deeply into Jian Zhinian's phoenix eyes with his deep eyes.

These peaceful days were the most peaceful days Mu Qingyuan had experienced since he left university.

His parents were safe, no longer controlled by the Mu family and the old man, and Jian Zhinian was by his side. He thought he could live like this for the rest of his life.

Perhaps, those difficulties that we couldn’t let go of in the past can now be let go.

As long as Jian Zhinian is around.

He had been a boyfriend for many years, and now that he was tired of it, he could probably change to another identity...

With this thought in mind, Mu Qingyuan lowered his head and kissed the rose in his heart.

"okay."

Jian Zhinian had a faint sense of anticipation. When his breathing became disordered, he thought that once the Mu family's matter had a conclusion and they were all focused, maybe he should have a good talk with Mu Qingyuan.

Talk about what they missed and their future...

The aroma of red wine is alluring, and I am drunk without even realizing it.

Late at night on the Simmons bed, Mu Qingyuan trapped Jian Zhinian under him, sinking into madness and indulgence, as if celebrating their victory and the dreamlike tomorrow in advance.

This year's New Year's Eve may be a day of reunion...
