Mu Jiu Chen's eyes instantly flared with anger. He looked at Xiao Fan and said unceremoniously, "Make him leave!"
"Oh! Big Brother, since when do you dislike me so much?"
A cynical voice rang out as Mu Si Chen, dressed in a red suit, appeared in the office. A wicked smile played on his handsome face, his flamboyant demeanor causing a sense of discomfort.
Within his sharp, discerning eyes, a terrible ambition lay hidden.
Mu Jiu Chen sat still, his deep-set eyes flickering slightly as he carelessly glanced at Mu Si Chen, a hint of disgust evident.
"It's not that I dislike you; it's that I absolutely do not want to see you."
A flash of anger crossed Mu Si Chen's eyes, but he maintained a smile. "Grandfather wants you to go back to the old residence."
Mu Jiu Chen spoke unhurriedly, "When the doctor last visited Grandfather at the old residence, why didn't he prescribe some medicine for you?"
"Didn't I just return from the old residence yesterday? Mu Si Chen, if you're sick, find a doctor as soon as possible."
Mu Si Chen: "..." Only Mu Jiu Chen dared to speak so directly.
This stubborn old man was already difficult and unyielding at such a young age, harder to handle than cold iron.
No, wasn't he calling him mentally ill?
Mu Si Chen, who was a beat too slow to react: "..."
Damn it, why would he assume it was about him if he was sick?
This damned Mu Jiu Chen always treated him like this.
"No, Big Brother, I've been managing the shipping affairs, haven't I? Why did you take back my authority?"
He came primarily for this matter.
Mu Jiu Chen had revoked his orders without reason, and without power, how could he show off?
"Hmm! Aren't you very good with your words? Aren't you proud of your mouth?"
"Unfortunately, your mouth offended a senior executive in the shipping jurisdiction. They don't want you, not me."
Mu Si Chen's eyes widened. How did he know about this?
Heh heh...
Mu Jiu Chen's cool demeanor harbored a hidden humor.
He was indeed proud of his mouth, but whenever it came to him, he never heard anything good, only nonsense.
"Big Brother, listen to me, let me explain—no, Big Brother, listen to me. That senior executive spoke too harshly, and I merely wanted to curb his arrogance."
Mu Jiu Chen stood up, his height a head taller than Mu Si Chen's, his posture erect and imposing. His dark, profound eyes always held a faint, elusive gleam. Leaning slightly, his profile was even more devilishly handsome and sexy.
Looking at Mu Si Chen, he wore a smile of dissolute abandon. "It doesn't matter. Your mouth is truly formidable. It has finally sent you home to lie down and win."
"Mu Jiu Chen, do you have to treat me like this?" Mu Si Chen was furious. Every word Mu Jiu Chen uttered was an insinuation, and if he could tolerate this, he wouldn't be Mu Si Chen.
The smile on Mu Jiu Chen's sexy lips vanished instantly, leaving only indifference. "When I handed over the shipping affairs to you, didn't you say you were very capable? With your earnest efforts, I granted your wish. You caused me to lose all my capital, should I thank you?"
"I..." Mu Si Chen blushed. He had confidently guaranteed that he would achieve results, but he had failed miserably.
Mu Jiu Chen gestured towards the door. "Scram. Don't dirty my eyes."
Mu Si Chen turned and left in a rage, filled with shame and anger.
In the Mu family, he was always overshadowed by Mu Jiu Chen's brilliance.
Mu Jiu Chen, I will not let you go. You used me and then completely washed your hands of the blame.
He would definitely pin this blame back onto him.
Suddenly, Xiao Fan exclaimed excitedly, "Ninth Master, I found it."
