Next to the large pond in the middle of the garden.

The people around were laughing and talking in a relaxed manner, but the atmosphere between Mu Aotian and Qu Lengmei seemed a little solemn.

Of course, only Qu Lengmei has this solemn feeling.

Mu Aotian always maintained a gentle expression.

"Mu Aotian, I heard that you will open the Sand Ruins in five days? You come to see your daughter at this time. Aren't you afraid that the Wei family will target her?"

Mu Aotian smiled and said, "With Madam Qu here, nothing will happen to my daughter."

"Humph, Siyu is not Su Hong's wife yet. They are just boyfriend and girlfriend."

"I have no obligation to protect her."

Mu Aotian didn't say anything, just looked at the sky quietly.

Seeing this, Qu Lengmei snorted coldly, "What do you want to do by suddenly appearing at the Castle Hotel today? Let the Wei family know about my relationship with your Mu family?"

"I'm telling you, you're overthinking it. The War God Palace will never get involved in family feuds."

"Mrs. Qu, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to drag the God of War Palace into this."

Mu Aotian shrugged indifferently, "I just miss my child."

But Qu Lengmei didn't believe this and looked at Mu Aotian coldly.

Suddenly appearing here at this critical moment, anyone can guess what his purpose is.

Seeing this, Mu Aotian could only helplessly say, "Whether Madam Qu believes it or not, this is the fact."

"Siyu's mother died shortly after giving birth to her. She never received her mother's love, so I love her especially dearly."

"But I've spoiled this girl since she was little. In the eyes of other families in Wind City, she's a little witch, a villain who does all kinds of evil. But only I know that she's actually very sensitive. From childhood to adulthood, she's almost never close to anyone except me and her brother."

"Honestly, when I heard Qingcheng say that she fell in love with a boy, I was shocked."

"Xiaoyu gave me Su Hong's photo that day. Actually, I had already noticed something because he looked so much like Mr. Gao. I knew his background must be complicated. I didn't expect...my suspicions were true."

"Mrs. Qu, I only have one request here today."

"If I lose the Sand Ruins, please be sure to protect Siyu at the War God Palace. If possible... I would also like to entrust Qingcheng to you."

Qu Lengmei frowned and looked at Mu Aotian: "Is that all?"

"I thought you were anxious to ask for the betrothal gift from our War God Palace."

"If Hong'er is determined to marry Siyu, then it is only right that our War God Mansion offers a betrothal gift."

After hearing this, Mu Aotian smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect Madam Qu to think of me as this kind of person."

"Do you think I would trade my daughter's happiness for benefits?"

"Hehe... Although the War God Mansion is wealthy and powerful, it's a bit too bullying."

"If not, I'll take Siyu away."

After saying that, Mu Aotian turned around, but before he could take two steps, Qu Lengmei spoke up: "Wait, don't let the things of the previous generation affect the relationship between the two children."

Mu Aotian stopped moving, and Qu Lengmei continued, "Mr. Mu, Siyu, I will take good care of her. She won't be hurt."

"That's good."

Mu Aotian breathed a sigh of relief, then turned and walked out of the hotel, laughing: "Hahaha, then I'll trouble Madam Qu."

"and many more."

Qu Lengmei called out meaningfully, "Boss Mu, may I know why you came all the way from Wind City to Dragon City?"

"Don't even mention it for the Shen family. Her family is just a pawn."

Mu Aotian stopped again, and after a moment of hesitation, he looked at Qu Lengmei meaningfully: "I hope that one day, our in-law relationship will not become a hostile one."

After saying that, Mu Aotian left. Qu Lengmei did not continue to stop him, but she couldn't help feeling a little confused.

hostility?

What does it mean?

And the other side.

When Mu Siyu saw Mu Aotian leaving, she immediately became anxious.

"Why did my dad leave?"

After she finished speaking, she quickly ran over. Before she had taken two steps, Qu Lengmei stopped her: "Siyu, your father just left for something important."

"I'll take you to meet your dad later."

"Aunt, what did you two talk about..." Mu Siyu asked sadly as she watched Mu Aotian leaving.

I finally got to see my father, but I didn't expect him to leave so soon. He didn't even stay with me a little longer.

Seeing Mu Siyu's expression, Qu Lengmei came over and gently hugged her: "Your father and I were just discussing the betrothal gift."

"Your dad said no, just let that brat treat you well."

"I said if Hong'er bullies you, I will beat him to death without him having to intervene."

Mu Siyu's face instantly turned red when she heard this, and she looked at Qu Lengmei with a look of reproach: "Aunt, what are you talking about? Su Hong and I have only known each other for a few months. How can we talk about these things so quickly?"

"We've known each other for quite a while. When we were our age, we got married without even meeting each other."

Qu Lengmei was all smiles.

In fact, she had expected Mu Aotian to come today, but she didn't expect that Mu Aotian just came to see Mu Siyu.

After all, Qu Lengmei and Su Hong's mother also recognized Mu Siyu. As long as Mu Aotian's request was not excessive, even asking the people from their War God Palace to help fight in the sandy ruins would be acceptable. This time's help could be regarded as a betrothal gift to Mu Siyu.

But Mu Aotian didn't want anything.

It even seemed that he had no intention of taking advantage of the relationship with the God of War Palace.

Could it be that he intends to use the Shen family alone to resist the Wei family and the Marshal's Mansion?

Qu Lengmei was a little confused, but she believed that if Mu Aotian really needed help, he would come to her for help.

He must understand the reason.

While Qu Lengmei was still thinking, Su Hong suddenly appeared from nowhere and whispered in Mu Siyu's ear:

"Mu Siyu, your father doesn't want you anymore!" The voice sounded like the childish words between kids at the beginning of kindergarten.

But Mu Siyu was very much fooled by Su Hong's tricks, and her sad face instantly turned into anger.

"You dog Su Hong, I'll beat you to death!"

"Lululu, you can't hit me!" Su Hong chuckled, and then was chased all over the field by Mu Siyu.

Qu Lengmei couldn't help but laugh.

Only my nephew could make such a joke at a time like this.

But she also understood that this guy was always talking nonsense. If anything happened to Mu Siyu, he would probably be the first to be anxious.
