Chapter 288 - Why Is She Here?
As Mu Jun was the heir of the first family, naturally many people wanted to build connection with him. A few even wanted to set up their daughter so that their family could receive some benefits from the Mu family, not to forget the prestige the Mu family has among the rich and powerful class, one who becomes the Mistress of the Mu family naturally enjoys greatest benefit in her life.
Therefore, girls were given more priority than boys whenever the Mu or Rao family held a banquet just because they wanted to match their daughter with the Young masters of the Giant family.
While the few members of Mu family were greeting the Guest, Shen Yi helped master Mu to a chair and stood next to him to guard him.
Mu Jun, accompanied by his group of friends was surrounded by a group flies who were trying to introduced their daughter. There were all type of girls like cute, beautiful, intelligent, cold, hot blooded, bold. But Mu Jun did not grant them even a single glance as his mind and heart only had his baby girl In it.
Watching his grandson surrounded by a few flies, Master Mu could not help but sneer.
Cathcing Master Mu's expression, Shen Yi asked with amused curiousity "What happened Grandpa? What's with that expression?"
"Hmph…" turning his head, Master Mu held Shen Yi's hand and said excitedly "Little Yi, after seeing my granddaughter, I don't find any of them pleasing. I feel annoyed the more I see them"
"Oh, is it? Then who was it that used to get excited whenever he saw his grandson surrounded by a group of girls and hopped that he would pick one to be their daughter-in-law?" Shen Yi asked with a smile
"Hmph, that was before. But after seeing my baby granddaughter, I have changed my mind" Master Mu insisted
"You have already announced her as your granddaughter only after watching the video. If you were to meet her and spent time with her, I'm afraid you will kick your own grandson and adopt here instead" Shen Yi joked
"Well, if kicking my grandson can let me have a cute and adorable daughter-in-law like her, I don't mind"
Surprised, Shen Yi silently sighed at his third brother who was about to be abandoned by his dear grandfather.
As Master Mu and Shen Yi watched Mu Jun being introduced to the business officials daughter, they saw a young girl dressed in peacock gown walked towards Mu Jun elegantly.
Walking closer to Mu Jun, Yi Yuming with a beautiful smile called out sweetly "Brother Mu?"
hearing a young girls voice, everyone instictively turned their head and looked at the beautiful young girl and were a bit surprised. What surprised them more was when Mu Jun actually nodded at the girl when he did not even spare a glance to their daughters.
At once, every one present there started to speculate who this girl was. Some even assumed that this girl was the future Mrs. Mu seeing that Mu Jun nod only nodded at her but also greeted her mother and father who arrived later.
Some even wanted to befriend the Yi family seeing that the possibility of their daughter entering the Mu family was high. A few young girls was watched as a not so beautiful girl circled around Mu Jun like a proud peacock with envy, hatres and enimity.
naturally, Yi Yuming aslo noticed their gaze and was even more proud of herself.
this was exactly what she wanted. Having known Mu Jun for more than a decade, she knew that Mu Jun never bothers to greet those whom he is not familiar with on his own accord, especially young girls. Only she had such privilege as she knew Mu Jun since he was a child and not to forget her mother and Mu Jun's mother were good friends. Naturally, even if Mu Jun did not want to speak, he would at least give them some face considering their mother's relationship.
Glancing at Master Mu who was sitting on a chair a few meters away, a triumph smile appeared on Yi Yuming's face.
This was all a part of her plan. Knowing that Master Mu was watching Mu Jun, she purposefully appeared when there were a group of girls being ignored by Mu Jun and took the lead to greet him along with her friends. Firstly she wanted Master Mu to know that she was different from other girls so Mu Jun greeted her back. And secondly she wanted Master Mu to see that not only did her parents like Mu Jun, Mu Jun also respected her parents and had favorable opinion.
Knowing how much master Mu favoured Mu Jun, he would definitely over think things and consider getting their family together. Even if he did not, he would atleast have favorable opinion on their family and when Mu Jun brings Sia or other girl back home, Master Mu would inevitably compare with each other. Naturally, she was confident about herself and was sure that she would win Master Mu's favour.
Even though Sia was prettier than her, so what? Master Mu was never one who would be impressed by looks, so she was sure that the mistress position would land on her lap one or the other day.
Praising herself for being so intelligent, Yi Yuming looked at her parents who were cooperating in her plan.
Not far away, Shen Yi watched as Yi Yuming tried to get close to Mu Jun and could not help but frown "Why is she here?"
Noticing the dissatisfaction in Shen Yi's voice, Master Mu lifted his head and asked "What happened? Do you know her?"
"Hmm...I heard third brother say that Auntie Mu and her mother used to be friends and so the two mother wanted them to get along. For the sake of auntie, he just went along with her" Shen Yi answered in a frown
"Oh! No wonder he responded to that girl and here I was wondering when did my annoying grandson started to repond to girls. Speaking of which, why do you look dissatisfied?"
