Chapter 286: A Bigger Lurking Threat (5)
Long Feiting: “…”
If it weren’t for the fact that he knew how intelligent she was, he’d have thought that she was really that naive!
“Mu Huan, don’t even dream, this is not possible!”
“What do you want, then? Say it!” If she had known this wouldn’t work, she wouldn’t have said so much!
Long Feiting rubbed his chin and thought for a while. Then he said, “Apologize to Kexin publicly!”
He did wonder whether or not that Song Xing was the Star that he had been looking for, but he knew that was only his own dream. He just couldn’t accept that the Little Star he knew would turn out to be the Mu Kexin now, so he couldn’t help but dream.
All facts and evidence pointed clearly that Mu Kexin was the person he had been seeking.
Although she was not as outstanding now as she was in her childhood and he actually found it difficult to get too enthusiastic about her, she saved his life nevertheless. So, even if she had been so stupid as to have done what she did, Mu Huan shouldn’t have hired a gigolo to seduce her and tarnish her reputation.
After they were reunited, he hadn’t done much for Mu Kexin, so why not get Mu Huan to apologize to her?!
Mu Huan was almost speechless. “Apologize to her in public? Why apologize? What have I done against her?”
“Whatever it is, she’s your sister, but you got a gigolo to seduce her. Don’t you think it’s wrong to ruin her reputation like this?”
“Wrong, my foot! She’s already moved into my home and wants to steal my husband. She even made use of her mother’s authority to bully me. I’m already being too kind in that I haven’t hired thugs to completely destroy her!” Sister indeed! Mu Huan’s mother had only one child and that was herself! Furthermore, had she done anything wrong?
If that girl dared to bully her like that, then she could jolly well bear the consequences!
“Yes, she’s a little stupid, but why be so calculative with someone like her? As an elder sister, can’t you give her some leeway, have a bigger heart?”
“So you do know too that she’s stupid?” Mu Huan raised an eyebrow. Why would he still like Mu Kexin, or stand up for her, or ask for an apology for her, if he knew that the girl was stupid? Was that true love or something?!
Realizing that he had spoken too fast to say that Mu Kexin was stupid, Long Feiting was a little vexed. No matter what, the girl was his benefactor. How could he be saying to someone else that she was stupid?!
“I’m not really saying she’s stupid. She’s just very ordinary, just a little slow maybe.”
Just a little slow…?
Mu Huan was disgusted!
Was Long Feiting like those overbearing young CEOs they write about in novels, ones who like those stupid sweet young things?
No — those sweet young things they write about in the novels, although stupid, were kind-hearted at least!
What kind-heartedness did this guy see in Mu Kexin exactly?
“Whatever it is, just apologize to her in public and obtain her forgiveness. Then this matter will be water under the bridge!” Long Feiting bulldozed his way through, not knowing what else he could say.
“Are you asking me to apologize publicly to her to avenge her or to cause her more harm?” There was no way she was going to back down and make a public apology to Mu Kexin!
Long Feiting shot back immediately, “Of course it’s to avenge her!”
“If you’re out to avenge her, then you shouldn’t be asking me to apologize to her publicly.”
“Why?”
“If I do that, of course people will be wondering why I’m apologizing to her. And at that point, even if I didn’t say it, people would eventually find out that Mu Kexin and her mother were after the same gigolo. And everyone will come to know of this. It’s easy to find these things out. You want Mu Kexin to be the talk of the town once again?” Mu Huan raised an eyebrow.
Long Feiting: “…”
It was just a momentary thought; he hadn’t thought of this.
“Well, apologize to her in private, then!” Whatever it was, he wasn’t going to let her off this apology!
