Meanwhile, Mu Tingfeng ignored how others had perceived him. His status had provided him with many conveniences. Ever since young, not many people had dared to question his decision. As time went by, decided on his own that having no one question him was his right.

As such, he had been very livid over the accident that happened four years ago. This was especially after it happened, the only family member he respected and watched him grow up, his grandpa, had sided with the woman and forced him to marry her.

​​

As a result, Mu Tingfeng had fought back very hard. Over the past years, he had been treating the previous Zhao Youlin indifferently. He did not even stay in the same room on the day of their wedding. But, now...

Mu Tingfeng gave a glance at the angry woman beside him without leaving a trace. A faint emotion flickered in his eyes.

Perhaps, he should thank his grandfather for his foresight.

Mu Tingfeng ignored Zhao Youlin's resistance. He wrapped around her shoulders with his hand and with a slight force, he pushed her into his arms dominantly and said in a low voice, "Regardless if you guys believe my words, I'm going to remarry Zhao Youlin. She's also my child's mother. From now on, I don't want to hear any gossip related to her. Otherwise, with the Mu family's strength, settling those shrewish women who like to gossip is just a piece of cake."

It was rare to see Mu Tingfeng speak so much at once. Hints of threat and insults were caught in his words.

His words had clearly hinted to Sun Fengzi and Zhao Shunrong that regardless of whether they believed him, he would have Zhao Youlin's back.

Even though what he said was false, Zhao Youlin was undoubtedly his child's mother.

As long as Mu Tingfeng admitted it himself, with Joy as the medium between them, they remained as a family.

Whoever belonged to Mu Tingfeng was also considered part of the members of the Mu family. If the members of the Mu family were bullied, how could they not bully the person back?

Mu Tingfeng's plain-spoken threatening remarks got Sun Fengzi's face growing increasingly troubled. Meanwhile, at the side, Zhao Shunchang had cold sweat as he heard Mu Tingfeng's words. He cast a pleading glance at Zhao Shunrong.

Zhao Shunrong naturally got his younger brother's hint to seek help from him. However, he did not react to Zhao Shunchang's plea for help. Instead, he looked away as if to completely disengage himself from the series of strife before him.

Zhao Shunrong did not forget how that woman had insulted his daughter not long ago, and also how that woman had driven his wife over the edge. He had been generous enough not to be calculative with them all for the sake of their relationship. Therefore, how could he possibly be speaking up for them at that moment? He was not a saint, after all.

When Zhao Shunchang noticed Zhao Shunrong turning away from him, he was a little disappointed. He knew that Sun Fengzi and himself had truly offended his big brother and his family.

Zhao Shunchang pursed his lips. Then, he helped Sun Fengzi up and caved in, "Regarding this matter… indeed, we're at fault. President Mu, we thought that your divorce from Zhao Youlin was entirely because of… a clash of personalities. We have never thought that it's because you guys had… a squabble with each other and hence created such a big commotion…"

"T-That's… right." Even though Sun Fengzi was reluctant to agree to it, she did not have the guts to confront someone whom even her father had avoided from having a conflict. Therefore, she gritted her teeth and changed the way she spoke. She forced herself to smile and said, "Youlin, how could you squabble with him. Husband and wife should never feud with each other for more than a day. Why must you fight so hard to the point of filing a divorce? Isn't it troublesome to have to remarry?"

Zhao Youlin quirked her eyebrow when she saw how desperate Sun Fengzi had been pressured the moment Mu Tingfeng appeared. Just a while ago, Sun Fengzi looked so fierce as if she could not wait to rip Zhao Youlin's mouth, and within an instant, she changed to become so flattery.

Zhao Youlin said to herself, "Indeed, no wonder so many people want power."

Zhao Youlin had been cussing and laying her hand on Sun Fengzi so many times, yet, Sun Fengzi did not seem to fear her. On the contrary, Sun Fengzi instantly lost her mind as soon as Mu Tingfeng walked up and spoke a few words. She did not know if she should laugh or cry over this.

Even though Sun Fengzi gave in to them on the surface, her words were filled with resentment. She seemingly expressed her concern about them. In fact, she had discreetly used her identity as their elder and rebuked the two young people for not taking their marriage seriously.

How could Zhao Youlin not be able to get the hint from Sun Fengzi's words after several rounds of arguments with her? Zhao Youlin's eyes darkened.

In order to excite Sun Fengzi, Zhao Youlin reluctantly took the initiative to hold Mu Tingfeng's arm and pretended to create an atmosphere of the two of them being so incredibly intimate. She smiled faintly and said, "Aunt, you don't get it. Young people like us are not as conservative and restrained as you guys. We prefer a married life filled with something new and exciting, instead of an unchanging married life. As such, we occasionally create some new ways to enrich our relationship. We call this… Oh, yes! Spicing up our relationship. Aunt, you won't understand all this."

Zhao Youlin had fought back Sun Fengzi's cynicism by flaunting her affection with Mu Tingfeng. At the same time, she satirized that Sun Fengzi was old and so, she did not understand the young people's mindset as well as had old-fashioned thinking.

Sun Fengzi was as angry as a horse with an itchy nose. Despite this, she could not explode considering Mu Tingfeng was still around. She had to hold back her anger. She gritted her teeth and replied to her, "So, that's how it is. It looks like I can't keep up with young people nowadays."

Zhao Youlin smiled and did not say anything further, as if agreeing with what Sun Fengzi had said. Sun Fengzi was so pissed off that she nearly burst.

However, soon, Sun Fengzi realized that this did not anger her the most. Instead, what came next would anger her the most to the point that she had wished to break her teeth and swallow them all.

Even though Mu Tingfeng had been used by Zhao Youlin to retaliate against Sun Fengzi, he had no qualms about it. In fact, he was happy. The mighty secretary Xia felt like he had just been forced to watch two people flirting while being reminded that he was still single.

Mu Tingfeng's eyes sparkled, and a glimpse of glee was caught in his eyes especially when Zhao Youlin said that their divorce was none other than the spicing up of the relationship between husband and wife. Zhao Youlin felt their eyes popping out of their head when they saw him.

However, Mu Tingfeng did not forget the purpose of Sun Fengzi and Zhao Shunchang coming here. Mu Tingfeng narrowed his eyes dangerously and said coldly, "Apart from this, there's still another issue…"

Mu Tingfeng paused purposefully. Sun Fengzi and Zhao Shunchang gulped with some difficulty and asked, "What's the issue about?"

"It's about your son and Youlin…"

Sun Fengzi and Zhao Shunchang's faces immediately turned white. They had been shouting at Zhao Youlin so brazenly before this because they thought that Mu Tingfeng had hated and abandoned Zhao Youlin.

But Mu Tingfeng had openly appeared to protect Zhao Youlin. All his previous hatred and abandonment had been for nothing.

The young master Mu did not hate Zhao Youlin. In fact, he seemed to dote on Zhao Youlin.

Sun Fengzi weighed the pros and cons. Finally, she reluctantly gave in to them. She smiled dryly and said, "That… is a misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding because of the small fight between cousins. It's only a misunderstanding."
