"Let me think this matter through first. We are in no hurry and can't make an arbitrary decision regarding this!"
As the elder made his point clear, he got up slowly from his seat, leaned on his cane, and walked away with a worried look on his face.
Truth be told, when his sister came to discuss this matter with him, he was not at all supportive of Mu Yancheng as a candidate. He felt that Mu Shumin did not know better when she proposed this nephew of theirs as the next head of the household. The chap neither possessed the qualities nor had the capabilities to lead this house at all!
The reason he called for this meeting and got the young man to come along was merely to provoke a response from Mu Yazhe. He wanted the man to have a sense of crisis regarding his position! Despite the latter's mean words, the older man was so sure that the chap would know what was good for him and make a smart decision, somehow!
