She didn't know about Mu Mu's past with the Mu family; Mu Mu had only told Yan Ziming about those things.
"Big sister, what's going on?" Ye Qianxue asked, tugging at Yan Ziming's sleeve.
"Don't mind your own business."
Yan Ziming pinched Ye Qianxue's cheek; she already had a clue about the old man's identity.
It's most likely Mu Mu's grandfather, the protagonist of this 80th birthday celebration—Mu Hong!
Otherwise, why would Mu Mu be so impolite to such an old man?
As it turns out, Yan Zimo was right.
"Mu Mu, I am the patriarch of the Mu family. Many things cannot be decided based on the ideas of ordinary people like you, nor can they be influenced by personal feelings. Every action I take is for the sake of the family," Mu Hong said earnestly.
"So they forcibly arranged a fiancé for me, and they still haven't removed him?" Mu Mu sneered. She didn't care about families or anything like that; she wouldn't compromise on anything that interfered with her life.
Profit above all else – the primary standard by which wealthy families conduct business.
That's why Mu Mu hates the concept of family and hates that people from the Mu family include themselves in the 'family' system.
"But the Zhao family doesn't agree, so there's nothing we can do even if we want to cancel it. All the necessary ceremonies have been done, and the wedding is just one step away!" Mu Hong said helplessly, though it was unclear how true his words were.
"Huh? The other party won't agree? Doesn't that person feel ashamed?!" Ye Qianxue couldn't help but mutter under her breath.
Given Mu Mu's current strength and status, does her so-called fiancé still have the nerve to keep their original engagement intact?
You're not even worthy to carry Mu Mu's shoes!
"Even if it were to be kept, it should be him marrying into the family, not Master Sister marrying into the family," Ye Qianxue muttered softly again.
Yan Ziming tapped her, signaling her to be quiet, and whispered in her ear:
"Are you stupid? It's precisely because Mu Mu is so powerful now that he needs to cling to this diamond-encrusted thigh!"
Perhaps they never imagined that Mu Mu would achieve such success; the engagement was simply to enhance the friendship between the two wealthy families and to expand cooperation.
Now, Mu Mu has become someone who can advance to the ninth rank at any time, and is a highly sought-after figure worldwide. Countless people are eager to curry favor with her.
And now, because they had unintentionally developed an "inseparable" relationship with Mu Mu in their early years, even if his fiancé felt ashamed and wanted to let go, his family would not agree.
Even if it means being shameless, this marriage agreement must be carried out to the end!
The circle of wealthy and powerful families is a circle of interests. Being able to establish a relationship with Mu Mu is the greatest benefit their family can gain in the next few decades, and they will never let go of it no matter what.
"Hmph! You'd better tell him yourself that if he doesn't cancel, he might unknowingly die one day!"
Mu Mu issued an ultimatum: since the other party was shameless, she wouldn't give them any face.
Upon hearing this, the people behind Mu Hong changed color. Given Mu Mu's character of keeping her word, she might actually harm her nominal fiancé.
"How dare you do this! Do you really think the state apparatus is just for show?" A middle-aged man couldn't help but shout. He was a member of the Zhao family, so naturally he had to speak up for them.
"As long as no evidence is found, isn't that enough?" Mu Mu's words were like a chilling wind, making the person feel cold all over.
"Ahem, today is a joyous occasion, let's not talk about these things, let the young people handle their own affairs."
Mu Hong said with a smile that no matter how much he tried to persuade Mu Mu, it would be useless. Her strength and status meant that she would no longer be controlled by the Mu family. It would be better to put this issue aside for now.
After saying that, he boarded the ship first.
"You're not really planning to kill him, are you?" Yan Ziming couldn't help but ask.
"Otherwise what? Is there any other way to get them to compromise? For these shameless aristocratic families, if you talk to them in a gentle manner, they will only think you are easy to bully. If you want to talk to them, you have to be strong enough."
Upon hearing this, Yan Ziming nodded, agreeing with Mu Mu's assessment.
A kind person is often bullied, and a good horse is often ridden.
Everyone understands this principle.
When dealing with unreasonable people, you need to be firm. You can't always rely on others to save you, or you'll deserve to be bullied.
"Master Sister, let's go up quickly! I want to sleep in the luxury suite all day!" Ye Qianxue's eyes were shining brightly, it seemed that she was really looking forward to the luxurious facilities on the cruise ship.
“Okay, let’s go up. I’ve already arranged your rooms. Remember them, 1183, which is room number 83 on the eleventh deck,” Mu Mu emphasized.
"1183...1183..." Yan Ziming muttered to himself several times, memorizing the number completely, and then followed Mu Mu onto the cruise ship.
Once inside, even though Yan Ziming and Ye Qianxue had anticipated this, they still couldn't help but act like country bumpkins, looking at this and touching that. Mu Mu smiled and took pictures of them, adding them one by one to his treasured photo album.
It has to be said that the Mu family really went all out. The safety of this ship goes without saying, and the soundproofing features are among the best Yan Zimo has ever seen.
The restaurant boasts a variety of gourmet dishes and snacks meticulously prepared by top chefs, a wide selection of fine wines, and even a casino. It offers a complete range of entertainment facilities to ensure that its distinguished guests enjoy the best possible service.
The only downside is that you can't go outside the deck, otherwise you'll attract the attention of the mutated species. However, the rooftop is open-air and you can enter freely.
When Yan Ziming passed through some important occasions, he saw that the bodyguards and guards had straight military postures and were equipped with military-standard weapons, exuding a "military flavor" from the inside out.
"It seems that my uncle and the others have reached an agreement, but I don't know how to proceed with the follow-up actions?" Yan Ziming muttered.
Suddenly, Yan Ziming's phone rang, and Yan Shan's voice came through when she answered.
"I'll be waiting for you at the toilet door on the fifth deck."
He then hung up the phone before Yan Ziming could react.
"Qianxue, Mumu, you two wander around for a bit, I'll just take a stroll."
"What happened?" Mu Mu wasn't going to let Yan Ziming go so easily. She was going to spend a few wonderful days with Yan Ziming on this cruise ship, and maybe even do some wonderful things.
"Yes, I want to go with my big sister!" Ye Qianxue snuggled into Yan Ziming's arms, as if glued together, with no gap between them.
"Ah... I can't do anything with you guys, remember not to tell anyone, okay?"
Yan Ziming had no choice but to explain the whole story to them. To prevent anyone from eavesdropping, Yan Ziming also had Mu Mu use her domain to isolate their conversation on a small scale.
Anyway, they're all on our side, and we'll be sharing the crystal cores with them after we get them, so there's no harm in telling them.
Chapter 45 Meeting in the Toilet
"Oh, you! You only told me about something this big now!" Mu Mu rubbed her hands together, eager to get started. If it weren't for the huge crowd around them, she would have grabbed Yan Ziming's breasts and given them a good squeeze.
"That's right!" Ye Qianxue chimed in from the side, mimicking Mu Mu's actions as she reached for Yan Ziming's chest.
Yan Ziming pinched her cheek and said, "I'm afraid your big mouth will leak the secret, that's why I won't tell you!"
"Woo..."
After squeezing her for a while, Yan Ziming finally let go, and Ye Qianxue's face was already flushed red.
"Tch, bad sister, stinky sister, all she does is bully Qianxue..." Ye Qianxue muttered under her breath, rubbing her cheeks.
Yan Ziming ignored her. It wouldn't be good to keep her uncle waiting, or she would be the one to get a beating.
"Mu Mu, lead the way."
"I don't know, this is my first time on this cruise ship too." Mu Mu shrugged, indicating that she was helpless.
Even if she had come before, it wouldn't have been many times; she should have forgotten about it long ago after all these years.
"Qin Di, do you know... where is he? Is he missing?" Yan Zimo wanted to ask Qin Di, his number one underling, for help, but he couldn't find him anywhere.
"This underling is utterly useless at this crucial moment..."
Mu Mu said nonchalantly, "It's like you're saying we can't leave without him. Can't we just ask anyone?"
So she casually pulled over a waiter and asked, "Don't rush off, let me ask you a question."
The waiter hadn't quite grasped the situation yet, and it took him a second to come to his senses. When he realized the person who had grabbed him was the third young lady of the Mu family, he trembled and said in a trembling voice:
"Hello, Miss, how can I help you?"
"I'm asking you, where is the fifth deck?"
Yan Ziming looked at this scene with suspicion. Although it was normal for servants in the family to be nervous when they saw people in high positions, why did this person... seem terrified?
Having seen too many such looks before, she could easily tell that the waiter's eyes contained terror.
Moreover, in the sleeve that Mu Mu slightly pulled up, Yan Zimo vaguely saw a very strange tattoo. She couldn't quite put her finger on what it was; it was very odd and full of Cthulhu Mythos style.
However, Mu Mu didn't care. In fact, she didn't even glance at the waiter once, but focused intently on Yan Ziming.
—Little Momo is so cute when she's thinking! I really want to peel off her innocent exterior and ravage her!
"Right now, right here is..."
"Oh, that's all, you can go now." Mu Mu shook off the waiter as if he were a tool, and the waiter walked away quickly as if avoiding a plague, afraid that Mu Mu would bother him again.
Yan Ziming's lips twitched slightly. Mu Mu was being too rude, using and discarding her like that. Would she treat me the same way after she was done with me?
Nonsence--
What the hell are you doing? I'm the one doing the messing around! And I'm doing it with Ye Qianxue and Jiang Lan too!
Ugh, ugh, ugh, ugh—
What the hell am I thinking? I'm actually thinking about a 4P! My thoughts are even more perverted than Mu Mu's!
Yan Ziming's mind was racing, and he had completely forgotten what had just happened.
"Master, please be kinder to people in the future. Even a servant who hasn't seen you in years is so afraid of you. Will you ever be able to get married like this... Waaah—"
Ye Qianxue urged Mu Mu to get married quickly so that she wouldn't interfere with her and her sister's time together anymore, but Mu Mu grabbed her cheeks and pulled them long.
Snapped--
