Bei Shuo looked at the irregular dragon pattern jade pendant in front of her and could not help but stretch out her hand to pull out the same one from her neck.
Uncle Liu was stunned.
“Young Master, isn’t she…”
Mu Ci gently touched Bei Shuo’s jade pendant. “Do you remember what you promised me when we were young?”
Bei Shuo looked at Mu Ci in a daze as her mind went blank.
There was a faint sadness in Mu Ci’s smile. “You said that you will stay by my side for the rest of your life when you grow up. You can fulfill your promise now.”
Bei Shuo subconsciously stuffed the jade pendant back under her collar and pressed it down with her hand. In fact, she wanted to suppress her racing heart. “Are you, Brother Stone?”
Mu Ci nodded gently. “Yes.”
Bei Shuo sat up straight and looked Mu Ci up and down, her face full of disbelief. “Are you really Brother Stone?”
Mu Ci nodded again.
Bei Shuo pulled her hair and grimaced in pain.
Mu Ci reached out to hold her wrist and complained, “Why haven’t you kicked this habit yet? It’s true. I’m Brother Stone and you’re not dreaming!”
Bei Shuo let Mu Ci grab her wrist and said in a daze, “I can’t believe everything went so smoothly! I was thinking of a way to find you, and you appeared! It’s amazing!”
Mu Ci let go of Bei Shuo’s hand. “Did you want to look for me?”
Bei Shuo nodded. “That’s right. I was thinking of looking for you after I settled everything at home! Sigh, if it weren’t for all the strange things happening in my family, I would have come out to look for you earlier.”
Mu Ci’s expression darkened. “If you didn’t find me, why did you marry yourself?”
Bei Shuo shrugged and said helplessly, “You saw it too. If I don’t agree to the marriage, they won’t stop!”
“You could have run away, right? Or called the police! You—you can think of many ways to leave. Why did you agree to marry? What if the person you met wasn’t me, but someone else?” Mu Ci was a little afraid now.
Bei Shuo looked at Mu Ci in a daze. “But, it’s you! This is great. It saves me a lot of trouble!”
Mu Ci was speechless. “Did you know that the person you were going to marry was me?”
Bei Shuo shook her head. “I didn’t. I didn’t know your name was Mu Ci either!”
Mu Ci felt like his hair was on fire from fury. “You don’t even know who you’re going to marry, but you did it anyway?”
Bei Shuo did not take it to heart. “I don’t mind. That way I could settle my family problems first. My master said they are my family, so I have to repay them for giving birth to me. If I marry someone so that they can get the business, my debt is considered repaid!”
“What if the person you marry is a bad person?” There was anger in Mu Ci’s voice now.
Bei Shuo waved her hand indifferently. “It’s okay. I’ve thought it through. If he’s reasonable, I’ll negotiate with him and see what terms he can offer. If he’s a bad person, I’ll poison him to death. Hmph!”
Bei Shuo rolled up her sleeves.
Mu Ci was speechless.
Butler Liu was sitting in the front passenger seat, and could not help but swallow nervously. It seemed Young Master Mu had a close shave with death by poisoning.
That was not right either. Young Master Mu was not a bad person.
Something still did not feel right!
Butler Liu finally sorted out his thoughts.
He was accompanying Mu Ci to the Bei family to break off the engagement today! That was right! Mu Ci was planning to call off the engagement!
Mu Ci knew his physical condition well. When he found out his grandfather wanted to find an innocent girl to marry him in an effort to help counteract his bad luck and ease his condition, he refused to do it. He did not want to implicate the girl, but the old master was determined that this was the best way to treat his grandson
As long as it could treat the eldest young master, the old man was not afraid of bad karma. In his words, he said, “I will bear all the sins. I want my eldest grandson to live a long healthy life!”
Old Master Mu ignored the Young Master Mu’s pleas and simply avoided meeting him.
The eldest young master had no choice but to find the family that the old man had chosen and accepted this mission, which was the Bei family.
The eldest young master had personally come to break off the engagement. As someone who had watched the eldest young master grow up, he felt sorry for his situation. On the other hand, he did not want the eldest young master to be unable to sleep or eat in peace because of this matter, so he accompanied him here.
However, Butler Liu only said one line before the eldest young master interrupted.
Not only did he not cancel the engagement, but he also brought back the lady as the new young madam.
What was even more ridiculous was that before they even reached the Civil Affairs Bureau, the eldest young master had already given his entire fortune to someone else!
When they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, the driver reminded him gently, “Young Master, we’re here!”
Butler Liu closed his eyes hard, trying to clear his mind. He had to talk to the eldest young master alone.
Bei Shuo looked at the irregular dragon pattern jade pendant in front of her and could not help but stretch out her hand to pull out the same one from her neck.
