The pet career of Shaoqing of Dali Temple

Chapter 497 It's Not Good Enough, It's Too Scheming
On the side of the road, the special car of the Mu family was parked.

There was no light in the car, and Mu Shiyu sat in the dark, only his glasses reflected white light in the darkness.

The phone rang.

He took out his cell phone.

The new mobile phone, even the mobile phone card is brand new.

He put the phone to his ear and listened quietly.

"Brother, our people missed, and Mr. Qing's wife is safe..."

Mu Shiyu lowered his head slightly, the white light of the glasses disappeared, and everything was hidden in the darkness.

"Where are our people?" He asked quietly.

"Two died, and the remaining three were captured."

Mu Shiyu was silent.

From the other end of the phone came an uneasy question from the subordinate, "Brother, what should we do now?"

"You don't have to worry about their affairs, I have other arrangements." Mu Shiyu's voice sounded calm, but if someone is sitting in the car at this moment, they will definitely see Mu Shiyu's hand holding the phone twitching constantly .

"You arrange people to go to the ancient ancestral hall as soon as possible, replace all the personnel with our people, and then bring the scroll of summoning the four spirit beasts there, and start the summoning ceremony in secret..."

After finishing the call, Mu Shiyu quietly maintained the same posture in the dark car. After about 3 minutes, he raised his head and dialed the phone again.

"Hello..." He struggled to utter a word into the phone, his voice trembling, as if he was suppressing the grief in his heart, "Father, I have some bad news..."

Within the Mu family.

Old man Mu was speechless for a long time after hearing the news.

Mu Bolun is his grandson, and is the orthodox heir of the Mu family.

His son sat on the opposite chair with his head down, his face was full of sadness, "Fortunately, we still have Shiyu." He murmured, "Fortunately..."

Old man Mu frowned slightly, "Do you want Shiyu to inherit the family business?"

"You also know that Shiyu's ability... only he is the most suitable."

Old man Mu gently stroked the ring on his index finger.

That is the proof of the head of their Mu family, and it is also a symbol of the highest power in the family.

Even though he had heard the unfortunate news about Mu Bolun, there was no trace of sadness on his face.

As the head of the family, you must cover up all your emotions and anger well.

His son is really not suitable for the position of head of the family, so after all these years, he has not handed over the family to him.

He was waiting, waiting for Mu Bolun to grow up and become more mature, and train him to take over.

But now he has no choice.

"This kid Mu Shiyu is too good." The old man murmured, "It is because he is so good that I dare not let him touch this kid."

The middle-aged man raised his head and looked at his father puzzled, "Why, is it because of his identity?"

Mu Shiyu was a product of Meng Lang when he was young, an illegitimate child who was conceived before marriage.

Moreover, when Mu Shiyu was young, he grew up outside. After his mother passed away, the Mu family took him back.

"Not only because of Mu Shiyu's identity, do you still remember how he returned to the family?" The old man sighed deeply.

"At that time, his mother was seriously ill and couldn't stand the pain and committed suicide."

The old man sneered, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly ironically.

"There is one thing I never wanted to tell you. Back then, I sent someone to secretly check the surveillance in that hospital. It was true that Shiyu's mother committed suicide because she couldn't stand the pain. However, when she opened the window and was about to climb onto the window sill, Mu Shiyu is actually standing at the door."

The middle-aged man was stunned, "Father... Father..."

The old man raised his hand, "Listen to me first."

The middle-aged man had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

"At that time, as long as Mu Shiyu rushed over, he could save his mother from the window sill. Because of illness, his mother was slow to move, so it was very difficult for her to climb up the window sill, but from the monitoring, When Mu Shiyu entered the door, when he saw his mother's behavior, he hesitated for a moment, and then he backed out again."

"He was just a child at that time, maybe he was frightened." The middle-aged man tried to find a reasonable explanation.

"A child can act so calmly. Can you say that he has no scheming?" The old man glanced at his son, "As long as he is not burdened by his mother, he can return to our Mu family, even if he has to bear the burden of an illegitimate child." In name, he has never had any complaints, he is filial to you, loving to his younger brother, and kind to others in the family... Speaking of it, it is all in his favor."

The old man frowned and pressed the electric bell on the table.

The door opened silently.

An old servant came in from outside.

No one in the family did not recognize him. This old servant was deaf and dumb. He was responsible for cleaning the courtyard every day, or doing some simple work of trimming flowers and plants.

The old man Mu said calmly, "Tell me how Mu Bolun took the Demon Trapping Mirror."

Under the horrified eyes of the middle-aged man, the old servant opened his mouth, his voice was low, and he spoke clearly, not like a deaf and dumb person.

"The second young master didn't come back to the family that day. It was the elder young master who took the demon trapping mirror out and delivered it to the second young master."

The middle-aged man first looked at the old servant in disbelief, and then at his father.

"Father, what do you mean?"

"Mu Bolun has always been covering up for his elder brother. He made a mistake and he took all the faults. But in fact, Mu Shiyu's fault was even greater. It was he who connived at Mu Bolun's behavior, which led to our family history. The magic weapon is destroyed."

Old man Mu waved lightly, and the old servant bent over towards them, and walked out the door silently.

"I used to always talk about Mu Bolun's mistakes. It's not that I don't want to see him. I just want to force him to become better and make him more suitable for the position of Patriarch. But now his life and death are unpredictable, even if someone says he is dead. , but as long as I don't see his body, I will definitely not pass on the position of this Patriarch to anyone."

The middle-aged man was anxious, "Even if Mu Shiyu, but father, you are already old, what if..."

The old man sneered again and again, "If it really comes to that point, I'd rather choose someone from a side branch of our family."

"How can I do that? No matter how scheming Mu Shiyu is, he is still your grandson!"

The old man ignored his son, got up and walked out slowly.

"The problem I have to worry about now is not whether the patriarch's heir is good enough, but that our family will be infamous in the future!"

When the door was closed, the middle-aged man heard his father's order.

"Send someone to call Mu Shiyu back, and the family affairs will be temporarily entrusted to you."

When Mu Shiyu received the news, he was on his way to the small town.

"Young Master, the Patriarch told you to go back." The assistant answered the phone, and looked back at Mu Shiyu who was sitting in the back seat anxiously.

Mu Shiyu was expressionless, "Got it, you tell them, I suspect that there are traitors in the family, and three people fled privately while looking for Bo Lun's whereabouts. I'm chasing them now, and I will return after I deal with them."

Mu Shiyu's expression didn't change when he heard the assistant's phone call to inform the family, except for the fingers on his knees twitching slightly.

Call him back now?

Their old man is too smart.

So many years have passed, how come there is no old confusion?

The time he has left is not enough...
