Mu Chen shook his head. "Whether I believe him or not depends on his performance."
Bei Shuo was speechless. Both the old and the young had the same temper. Neither of them was willing to take a step back. It wasn't good for them to be in a deadlock like this.
"Grandpa, don't you value the Mu Family's reputation the most? If Madam continues to cause trouble, Brother Mu Ci won't be able to explain himself even if he jumps into the Yellow River. Can you not be angry with Brother anymore?" Bei Shuo tugged at the corner of Mu Chen's shirt.
Mu Chen looked at the clear-eyed girl in front of him. The more he looked at her, the more he liked her. This child was really God's compensation and gift to Mu Ci. With her, he was much more at ease.
However, he said, "Am I the one who has to sulk? Shouldn't you persuade your rock-like husband? I'm his grandfather! Shouldn't he be filial to me? What does one mean by filial? Obedience is filial!"
