Hearing Old Master Mu's words, Mu Wanwan knew that Mu Ruo and Mu Xiaoxue must have been badmouthing her behind her grandfather's back.
"Grandpa, do you have so little confidence in your granddaughter?" Mu Wanwan emphasized her existence as his granddaughter.
"So, you know that you're my granddaughter too?" Grandpa Mu sneered. "Since you treat me as your grandfather, then you should leave Bo Sihan."
"I won't leave Bo Sihan," Mu Wanwan said firmly.
Just as Grandpa Mu was about to roll his eyes in anger, her voice rang out again, " I will make myself worthy of Bo Sihan and make those who think I'm a vase shut up."
Old Master Mu couldn't believe that these words came out of Mu Wanwan's mouth, and he looked at her in disbelief.
After taking a closer look, he realized that Mu Wanwan was very different from the last time he saw her. There seemed to be stars shining brightly in her eyes that were filled with confidence.
"Grandpa, do you think Bo Sihan treats me well?" Mu Wanwan asked again when she saw that Old Master Mu was silent.
Old Master Mu thought for a moment. Bo Sihan was indeed very good to Mu Wanwan, but that kind of strong man wasn't someone a weakling could control.
He was worried that Bo Sihan would abandon Mu Wanwan in the future when she was old and weak.
By that time, she would have nothing left, and the rest of her life would only be a tragedy.
"He's good to you now, but what about in the future? You have to have the ability to keep him alive for a lifetime," Grandpa Mu said slowly after a while.
"Grandpa, you're right." Mu Wanwan nodded without hesitation and said, "That's why I'll work hard toward this goal. I'll work hard to become outstanding and deliberately stand shoulder-to-shoulder with him. At that time, even if Bo Sihan abandons me, I can tell him without any hesitation that I can still live a wonderful life without him. Grandpa, what do you think?"
Old Master Mu was amused by Mu Wanwan's tone. "Do you know how difficult it is for you to be as outstanding as him?"
Mu Wanwan nodded.
Bo Sihan's excellence was publicly acknowledged.
When he was sixteen, he brought her back to the Bo family. At that time, she had only been thirteen.
The Bo family didn't have a good life because Bo Sihan's mother was an ordinary woman and he was an illegitimate child. Many people in the Bo family looked down on him. However, Bo Sihan guarded against other people's schemes while protecting her.
In five years, Bo Sihan had taken control of the Bo family and inherited the position of the family head. He also inherited the Bo family's business empire.
Under Bo Sihan's leadership, the Bo family became one of the top five aristocratic families in the capital, living more gloriously than ever. He was only in his early twenties this year.
Old Master Mu saw the determination in Mu Wanwan's eyes and sighed. "It's good that you are aware of this. I'm just worried that you won't be able to survive on your own without him in the future. Wanwan, I don't have high expectations for you. As long as you have your own career in the future, you can live well even without Bo Sihan. My worries will be eased."
Hearing Old Master Mu's words, Mu Wanwan knew that he had calmed down.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I will," Mu Wanwan said firmly.
"Your dad was very angry when you didn't come back yesterday," Grandpa Mu said slowly, "He's your father after all. Don't go against him too much. "
He did not know how long he could live. When he died, there might really be no place for this child in the Mu family.
