Chapter 23: Brought a Little Girl Back to Treat the Old Madam
The courtyard of the old mansion was well-arranged with green bricks and white tiles. Even the path under their feet was paved with porcelain white marble.
The old madam's courtyard was brightly lit, as bright as day. It was filled with people, and everyone's faces showed varying degrees of anxiety. The atmosphere seemed very serious. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟el.c𝚘𝚖
The people in the courtyard were from the Mu family's direct and collateral branches.
"Mu Jinyan, if anything happens to Mom, it's your problem. I don't understand why you're delaying mother's treatment. Do you think that the Mu family is already under your control?"
A burst of furious shouting came from the courtyard, as someone couldn't contain their anger any longer.
Carrying Wen Xin's backpack lazily, Mu Chengxi strolled into the courtyard from outside. Hearing the outburst of anger, a faint smirk tugged at the corners of his mouth. Now they were trying to shift the blame, truly shameless.
Upon hearing the sound, everyone in the courtyard looked towards the door. When they saw Mu Chengxi coming in, their expressions changed. They were on guard and alert.
Mu Elderly Lady was critically ill, the Mu family was on the brink of disintegration, and yet she held special favor for this dandy prince.
In times when Mu Elderly Lady was healthy, rumors circulated that she had written a will, leaving all her assets to Mu Chengxi. Those around couldn't help but develop misgivings.
Desiring to change the situation before Mu Chengxi's return.
Wen Xin stuffed her hands into the pockets of her jacket and casually looked around.
The Mu family really lived up to their reputation. All the important figures in the capital were here. Amazing.
Mu Chengxi did not say anything. He only looked at Wen Xin out of the corner of his eyes. He did not expect Wen Xin to be so composed. her eyes were dark and deep, revealing an indescribable arrogance.
His guess had been right. Wen Xin was well aware of the Mu family's influence. Otherwise, she wouldn't be this calm.
The people in the courtyard today were all famous big shots. It was impossible for her not to recognize them.
Mu Chengxi raised his eyebrows and shifted his gaze from Wen Xin. He ignored the looks of the people around him and walked straight into the house.
Just as Mu Chengxi's hand was about to touch the door, a woman blocked their way. "Chengxi, your father said you've brought a doctor with you. Why are you stopping us from taking Grandma to the hospital? What do you mean by coming back now?"
Mu Chengxi frowned and turned his head to look at the woman. His gaze was cold. " Aunt, are you sure you want to stop me?"
"Mu Chengxi, aren't you being too arrogant? Grandma's life is not something you can joke about. If you can't find a doctor, don't stop us from sending Grandma to the hospital!"
A young man walked out from behind the woman. The man looked about the same age as Mu Chengxi, but his temperament was not even one-third of his.
At this moment, the door opened from the inside and an elegant woman walked out. She looked at Mu Chengxi anxiously. "Little Xi, where's the doctor you brought?"
Wei Manqing looked at her son eagerly. She knew that her son would not joke around with the old madam's life.
"I brought her." As he spoke, Mu Chengxi reached out to hold Wen Xin's hand and pulled her to his side. "This is her."
Mu Chengxi's tone was calm, but the people around him looked at him in shock, thinking that he was joking.
"Nonsense, this is nonsense. You brought back a little girl still wet behind the ears and won't even let us send your grandmother to the hospital. Are you trying to end your grandmother's life?"
