Sir, How About A Marriage?

Chapter 212: Manipulation

Liang Zhou hastily stopped Mu Lan. “Sister, please don’t say such words. Song Ning is the Old Madam’s precious. If she hears about this, it’ll be terrible.”

Mu Lan instinctively looked behind herself. Then, she turned back to Liang Zhou and sneered. “Sister-in-law, you are too cautious and timid. That’s why you’re being bullied by your daughter-in-law. Sister-in-law, you and Brother Qing have been together for so many years; we’ve all seen the way you conduct yourself. Now that you’ve returned, you should deal with Song Ning. If you can deal with her, Mu Chen will naturally listen to you. After all, Mu Chen treasures Song Ning like his life now.”

Liang Zhou nodded. “It’s only natural. Look at how Song Ning is pregnant only after a few months of marriage. It’s no wonder the Old Madam and Mu Chen treasure her so much. Now that she’s going to have a great-grandchild, she’ll no doubt give her great-grandchild the moon and the stars. ”

“Song… Song Ning is pregnant?” Mu Lan was shocked.

Liang Zhou feigned a guilty expression. Then, she said with a hint of pleading, “Ah, I shouldn’t have said that. This matter is a secret. The Old Madam is afraid of jinxing it so she doesn’t want to announce the pregnancy until the first trimester is over. Do you see how much importance the Old Madam places on this matter? Fortunately, Sister isn’t an outsider. Now that you know, don’t tell anyone about this, okay?”

An unnatural smile appeared on Mu Lan’s face as she said, “The time from one gets pregnant to giving birth isn’t short. Who knows what kind of accident will happen during that time? That’s probably why the old lady is afraid of announcing it, right?” She covered her mouth and laughed. She could not describe her feelings at this moment.

Liang Zhou hastily said, “Sister, your words are too scary. It’s said that a woman giving birth is like knocking on the doors of hell. No matter how advanced medical technology is, no one can say it’s 100% safe. However, I’ve never given birth so I don’t know much about these things. Nevertheless, I think Song Ning will be able to deliver safely since the Old Madam is taking care of her.”

Mu Lan sneered.

At the same time, Mu Qing and Liang Zhou exchanged a subtle look before Mu Qing said, “Liang Zhou, accompany Mu Lan to visit Song Ning later.” Then, he turned to Mu Lan and said, “You’re an aunt so you have to act like one. You’re 40 years old now; how can you still act like a child? How can you choose who you like and ignore those you dislike?”

Mu Lan was slightly embarrassed when she heard Mu Qing’s words. “Brother, how can you bluntly expose my shortcomings just like that?”

Mu Qing laughed heartily. Then, he said affectionately and gently, “You really haven’t changed at all. Listen to me, alright? Accompany your sister-in-law to visit Song Ning. Don’t make things tense. After all, Mu Chen is the head of the family now. You have to control your temper for the sake of the family, okay?”

Mu Lan nodded obediently. “Alright, I’ll listen to Brother Qing.”

At this time, a nurse entered the room to check Mu Qing’s blood pressure.

Liang Zhou pulled Mu Lan out of the room as she said, “Let’s wait outside. These examinations will take some time before they’re completed.”

Mu Lan, who treated this couple like her closest kin, was obedient and followed Liang Zhou out.

Liang Zhou had brought the kettle out of the room as well to refill the water while they waited.

Coincidentally, while the duo was refilling the water, they overheard the conversation between two cleaners.

“Did you hear? Miss Ye Xin who’s in the ICU now is Dr. Song Ning’s half-sister!”

“What? Is it true? If it’s true then their lives are really too messy!”

“Of course, it’s true!”
