C2 His Name Is Nangong Jue
"Second Miss, are you alright?" Master is already waiting for you in the study room. " Housekeeper Lin Sen knocked on the door three times in a very orderly and rhythmic manner. After getting permission, he walked in and raised his head to look at Mu Chuxue. Then he lowered his head and obediently bowed as he spoke.
"Alright, housekeeper uncle, please lead the way." Mu Chuxue replied politely.
Her past life, as well as her mother's teachings, had made her unable to accept others' respect for her as a matter of course, while she acted as if she was commanding, even if her current identity was like Mu Cangting said, it was already different from the past.
"Second Miss, this way please." Perhaps Mu Chuxue had never thought that her master would be so respectful to a lowly butler like him. Lin Sen was stunned for a moment, then recalled his responsibilities. He then bowed once again to lead the way for his new master.
"Xiao Xue came? "Come here." Mu Cangting saw that Mu Chuxue had almost become a completely different person. He couldn't help but think of the woman he loved the most in his life. There were too many shadows belonging to her on his daughter that he couldn't help but spoil.
All of a sudden, Mu Cangting, who was known for his ruthlessness, could not help but reveal a very human side. Those beautiful memories of before flashed through his mind like a movie scene.
"Father, do you miss your mother?" Mu Chuxue obediently walked over, she saw Mu Cangting's expression suddenly become very gentle and affectionate.
Although Mu Cangting was looking at her, she knew that her dad was thinking about the person in his heart through her shadow.
Moreover, she was sure that the person who lived in her father's heart was her mother. It was because Mu Cangting's eyes were so tender and deep in love, filled with so much sweetness.
In fact, she really wanted to think about her mother all the time for the past ten years. Whenever she was on the verge of being unable to endure the hardships of her life, she would think about her mother in the sky and then, she would become very brave.
"That's right, Xiao Xue. Actually, you look a lot like your mother." In front of his daughter, Jack freely admitted his longing for a woman.
Then he pulled Mu Chuxue along to the french window, pointed ahead, and said, "See? Xiao Xue, this is A City. Father sacrificed you and your mother before obtaining this world. From today onwards, Father will give this world to you. "
"Daddy, Snowy doesn't want this city. Snowy, as long as you have daddy now, you'll be satisfied with everything." The 18-year-old Mu Chuxue, after regaining her family members, once again had the coquettish attitude of a little girl. She held Mu Cangting's hand and acted coquettishly to her heart's content.
Just like before she was eight years old, although her life was tiresome, and she was constantly on the move, she had a happy time hiding in her mother's arms and acting coquettishly.
"Daddy, I'll leave everything I have to you. This is daddy's wish, Snowy, don't refuse, okay?" Mu Chuxue's coquettishness made Mu Cangting, who had been empty for so many years, instantly obtain great satisfaction.
"Alright. Little Snow did not refuse Father's wish. " Facing Mu Cangting's insistence, although Mu Chuxue didn't understand what owning this so-called world meant, she still obediently agreed.
Actually, what she wanted the most was a happy home, a place where one could hide from the wind and rain. However, if that was her father's wish, then she could only be satisfied.
"En, be good. Let's go. Daddy will take you out to eat." Mu Cangting was very satisfied with Mu Chuxue's good behavior. He put her hand on his arm, turned around and walked towards the door.
"Master, Nangong is back." He opened the door and saw the steward standing outside. He stepped forward and reported what had happened downstairs.
Mu Chuxue didn't know everyone in the room, so she didn't know who the butler was referring to. Thus, like a housekeeper, she quietly waited for Mu Cangting's reply.
"Is that so?" Mu Cangting snorted coldly. He looked at Mu Chuxue with disdain. Suddenly, he turned his head and asked a irrelevant question, "Xiao Xue, are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry. Daddy can take care of his own matters first." Mu Chuxue really wasn't hungry. After she woke up, she sat in the car and ate a piece of delicious cake.
Therefore, it really didn't matter to her if she ate dinner later.
She had once eaten only one meal a day, so she could endure hunger more than anyone else.
"Then daddy will take you to see someone first, okay?" When Mu Cangting asked for Mu Chuxue's opinion in such a soft voice, the housekeeper who had been serving him for many years, Lin Sen, was extremely shocked.
Since when had Mu Cangting ever respected the opinions of others so much? Even if the other party was his daughter, so what? He was not without a daughter.
Mu Chuxue nodded her head in agreement. Then, Mu Cangting said to the butler, "Let's go and see him first."
"Master, I'm back." Seeing Mu Cangting, Nangong Jue, who was standing at the door, walked up to them as the sun was setting. He stood in front of Mu Cangting and Mu Chuxue, bowing without the slightest bit of respect.
Mu Chuxue couldn't help but be curious about this scene and shifted her attention to this man. Whether it was from hearsay or what she saw with her eyes, everyone behaved in accordance with Mu Cangting's respect. However, the man in front of her was not.
Mu Chuxue could even clearly feel that this man who was filled with a cold aura and also had an aura of unapproachable, not only did he lack the respect he should have when facing her father, Mu Cangting, but there was even a hint of disdain.
This was a dangerous man. Mu Chuxue warned herself not to provoke anyone in the future. If she could avoid meeting him, then she must avoid him.
However, Mu Cangting's next words made all her warnings to him come to nothing.
"Xiao Xue, his name is Nangong Jue. Dad will give him to you."
Those words not only stunned the two people involved, it also stunned everyone within the Mu Family room. No matter if it was the people under Mu Cangting, or the people close to Nangong Jue.
No one knew what Mu Cangting was doing or wanted to do.
Mu Chuxue looked at Nangong Jue blankly. She noticed that the fire in his eyes started to burn more and more, from a small dot until it eventually became a raging fire, as if it was going to swallow her up.
Although she didn't do anything, she still lowered her head guiltily.
