Hearing Li Mu say this, Li Hui was even angrier. The veins on his forehead bulged as he expected better from him. He said loudly, “You still have the cheek to say that? You’re a man from the military, but you can’t even defeat a teenage girl. You’re embarra.s.sing yourself.”
Li Mu didn’t say anything. He just pursed his lips and continued to eat the apple in his hand.
Li Mu, who was usually elegant and upright in front of outsiders, actually looked sloppy at this moment.
Li Hui was so angry that he closed his eyes slightly. Then, he opened them angrily. “It just so happens that I’ve been at home for the past few days. I’ve gotten someone to arrange a few blind dates for you. Take a good look. You’re almost 40 years old and you don’t even have a girlfriend. This will affect the atmosphere of the military too much.”
“How can that do? I’m suspected of prost.i.tution now. How can I talk about marriage so easily? It will ruin the future of a good girl.” Li Mu rejected her directly.
Li Hui sneered and said, “Really? What if I say that the person you’re on a blind date with is the daughter of the Mu Family?”
Li Mu’s disinterested eyes were instantly filled with surprise. “Second Uncle, why didn’t you say so earlier?”
Li Mu didn’t wait for Li Hui to answer. He stood up directly and didn’t even have time to put on his slippers. He threw away the apple in his hand and started to rummage through the closet. He even muttered, “What should I wear to the blind date?”
Li Hui was so angry that his fists were about to harden. “Dream on! I think the daughter of the Mu Family can’t wait to send you to jail and you’ll never get out!”
Li Mu paused and his excitement instantly turned into resentment. He turned around and sat on the sofa at the side. He said in a low voice, “Second Uncle, didn’t you want me to get married? It wasn’t easy for me to like someone. It’s fine if you don’t help me fight for her, but you’re still teasing me here.”
Li Hui was almost angered to the point of paralysis by Li Mu’s ignorant personality. “Help you fight for her? Do you know how much the Li Family has sacrificed for you recently?”
“Right now, Lin Yin, the Mu Family, and the Lu Family are still investigating you behind your back and our Li Family. You should be glad that you didn’t succeed in making your first mistake. Otherwise, do you think you can still sit here and eat apples in peace? You would have gone to jail long ago!”
Seeing that Li Mu didn’t take his words to heart, Li Hui was furious. “If you continue to waste your time like this, you’ll be alone until you die. When other people are old and have children and grandchildren, you’ll be alone and beaten up by the caregiver in the nursing home!”
“Second Uncle, you’re getting more and more ridiculous. When I’m old I’ll be at the veteran nursing home. Don’t worry, the nurses won’t dare,” Li Mu said with a smile.
Li Hui’s heart almost stopped when he heard Li Mu’s words. Seeing this, Li Mu quickly said, “Second Uncle, don’t worry. Nothing will really happen this time. Don’t you understand me?”
“No matter how bold I am, I won’t ignore the discipline of the military and really violate a girl. Believe me, okay? I’ll definitely make up for our Li Family’s losses this time.”
Seeing that Li Mu was so certain, Li Hui’s anger subsided a lot. He said coldly, “Don’t even think about that young lady from the Mu Family. She’s the daughter of Mu Cheng and Ye Wen. She has three brothers who dote on her.”
“You’re old enough to be her father. If you don’t want to be chased and beaten by the Mu Family, you’d better not provoke Lin Yin. If something really happens and the Mu Family becomes ruthless, the Li Family might not be able to protect you, understand?”
“I understand, Second Uncle. I won’t do anything rash.” Li Mu smiled helplessly and agreed.
Li Hui gave Li Mu one last warning look before leaving.
However, just as he reached the hall, he heard a servant report that the eldest daughter of the Mu Family, Lin Yin, had come and was looking for Li Mu.
Li Hui was puzzled. Why did Lin Yin come over, and why was she looking for Li Mu?
Lin Yin did not see Li Mu in the living room. Instead, she saw Li Hui and said with a proper smile, “Mr. Li, I’m here to look for Li Mu today.”
She did everything she could to get Li Mu’s phone number, but it was always switched off. Later, she heard that Li Mu was locked up at home, so Lin Yin could only come directly to look for him.
“I wonder why Miss Lin Yin is looking for our Li Mu?” Li Hui asked, then explained, “Li Mu, this brat, is really too much this time. He’s still in confinement. If there’s nothing important, I think it’s better if you don’t meet, lest outsiders misunderstand.”
