Mr. Mu appears aloof in public, but secretly proposes marriage and kisses.
Chapter 23 He Created a Misunderstanding
Su Mingli was taken aback, not expecting Mu Tingshen to ask him this question.
No one knows better than him what happened three years ago.
Years ago, he overheard from the housekeeper that Su Muran and Mu Tingshen seemed to be sleeping in separate rooms.
He then guessed that something was wrong.
So he deliberately went to argue with his father to prove that Su Muran and Mu Tingshen's marriage was only a contractual agreement.
The goal was to make him give up.
He was overjoyed when he learned the truth!
He went to find Su Muran with great excitement.
However, Su Muran told him that she had really fallen in love with Mu Tingshen and that their fake relationship had become real.
"I don't believe it, this can't be true."
In a fit of emotion, Su Mingli pushed Su Muran down, but unexpectedly hit the edge of the coffee table, causing her to lose consciousness briefly.
Upon seeing the unconscious Su Muran, his mind went blank.
After forcing himself to calm down, he made the decision to take Su Muran away.
However, before leaving, he wanted to create the illusion that Su Muran had left on her own.
So they started searching their house, trying to take away Su Muran's clothes and identification, making Mu Tingshen think that Su Muran didn't want him anymore.
However, they found two signed divorce agreements.
Judging from the handwriting, the signature must have been made at the beginning.
If I look at the timeline, the agreement expires today.
So he placed the two divorce agreements on the coffee table and left with Su Muran.
Originally, he planned to wait for Su Muran to wake up and elope with her.
Since their parents didn't approve of them being together, they decided to run away together.
Because he didn't want his parents to find out, he hid her in the basement first.
But to his surprise, Su Muran was so agitated when she woke up and they had a fierce argument.
During the struggle, the clothes were accidentally torn, revealing a glaring and ambiguous hickey.
"You really did it with him... How could you do this to me?"
In despair, he ran out and got completely drunk in a bar.
He lived a life of debauchery for seven days before he remembered that Su Muran was still locked in the basement.
When he got home, he found the door was open and the person was gone.
However, for the past three years, he had always believed that the two of them had left together.
Could it be that he was wrong?
"Didn't Ranran leave with you three years ago?"
Su Mingli tentatively questioned.
"No, she disappeared when I came back from buying breakfast."
Mu Tingshen answered with a cold face.
Not only did they disappear, but they also left behind a signed divorce agreement.
Moreover, several clothes were missing from the walk-in closet, clearly indicating that he had been abandoned and left.
He spent a full six months with her, spending every day with her, taking meticulous care of her, and even... sleeping with her.
I originally thought she would change her mind about divorce, or at least that she liked him.
But to my surprise, she left when the time came, so resolutely, without the slightest bit of lingering affection.
"I see."
Su Mingli's heart pounded wildly upon hearing his answer.
He didn't dare ask any further questions because he already had a general idea of what had happened.
It's truly unexpected that such a misunderstanding would arise between them.
However, he had no intention of helping them clear up the misunderstanding.
He deliberately asked, "Why don't you ask Ranran about this? She's the one involved, and no one knows better than her."
He guessed that Su Muran definitely wouldn't tell him.
As expected, Mu Tingshen said coldly, "If she were willing to tell me, I wouldn't have asked you."
Su Mingli replied, "I don't know either. I've been looking for her for three years, and I only found out recently that she's in Estonia. I only found out this from a message left by an unknown person; otherwise, I wouldn't even know where she is."
At this point, Su Mingli suddenly paused.
He quickly frowned and asked suspiciously, "Did you have someone leak the information to me?"
He paused, then said, "You like Ranran, but Ranran doesn't like you. So you want to use me to tie her to you?"
"Finally, they've grown a brain."
Mu Tingshen chuckled mockingly.
Su Mingli turned pale with anger and immediately turned to leave.
But just as he reached the door, Mu Tingshen's cold voice came from behind him: "It seems you don't want to help your mother get treatment."
Su Mingli whirled around, pointing at Mu Tingshen and yelling, "You're a real bastard! You actually used my mother to threaten me! Don't forget, Ranran cares about my mother more than I do. If she knew you were using this to your advantage, what do you think she would think?"
Mu Tingshen said calmly, "Of course she'll hate you even more. After all, I've already told her I'm willing to help. But if you refuse to cooperate, there's nothing I can do."
"You... are despicable."
"I can't compare to your despicable behavior, that you actually had wicked thoughts about your sister whom you grew up with."
Su Mingli was so angry that her face turned red and her veins bulged.
He hadn't expected Mu Tingshen to be so sarcastic.
But what the other party said was true, leaving him unable to refute it.
"It's not that I'm unwilling to cooperate, it's just that I really don't know the answer to the question you raised. If you change your conditions, as long as it's something I can do, I will definitely agree."
Left with no other option, Su Mingli had to soften her stance and ask Mu Tingshen to change the terms.
Mu Tingshen looked at him scrutinizingly and pondered for a moment.
Just when Su Mingli thought there was no hope left.
Mu Tingshen finally spoke slowly: "I will ask Professor Wang to come for a consultation, but it has nothing to do with you. I'm only helping out of respect for Ranran."
Su Mingli breathed a sigh of relief.
He doesn't care whose face he has to give, as long as he's willing to help.
Anyway, he didn't want to embarrass him at all.
"Chairman Mu, is there anything else? If not, I'll be leaving now."
He clenched his fist, pushed open the door, and left.
He staggered out of the club, his shirt soaked with cold sweat.
He leaned against the wall for a long time, but he still couldn't suppress the emotions surging in his chest.
Mu Tingshen... how could it be him?
Even now, he still finds it hard to believe the truth.
It felt like I'd been slapped twice, and my very soul was reeling!
President Meng waited outside the room until Su Mingli left before daring to knock on the door and enter the private room.
"Chairman, I'm sorry, it was my poor planning. I didn't expect him to dare speak to you like that."
President Meng didn't actually know what was going on.
It was Mu Tingshen who sent him to find Su Mingli and invest in Su Mingli to start a company.
He was also the one who liaised with Su Mingli in the later stages.
The night before last, I suddenly received a message from Mu Tingshen, asking him to call Su Mingli immediately to arrange a meeting.
Heaven knows he was still in the capital at the time, yet he wanted to meet Su Mingli in Suzhou.
They drove almost overnight from the capital and arrived in the morning without giving themselves away.
But all his scheming was no match for a mere glance from fate. He never dreamed that Su Mingli, who was so timid and submissive in front of him, would dare to speak to Mu Tingshen like that.
Given Mu Tingshen's temperament, he's likely to be held accountable.
"You've arranged everything very well."
Mu Tingshen not only didn't blame him, but also praised him.
However, after praising her, he solemnly instructed her, "Su Mingli, continue to follow up. Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask, and keep your mouth shut."
He didn't want his family to know about his relationship with Su Muran yet.
