Chapter 1285 - 1299: Signing
Outside the door, Hairong stood in the living room, her big, grape-like eyes staring calmly at the door in front of her. After a moment, she turned and went back to her room.
...
Mu Xingfeng returned to Blue Sea and Sky after everyone had dinner. As he entered the private room, he immediately saw the girl in the corner.
Kicking away a few feet blocking his path, Mu Xingfeng walked over.
Sun Wangbei exaggeratedly cried out, hugging his kicked foot, "Ouch, my foot’s broken, Second Brother, you’re really something. As soon as you see Little Sister-in-law, you forget all about your brothers. Do you know this is a special gathering I organized to celebrate your promotion? I even turned down a million-dollar deal to be here."
Mu Xingfeng sat down beside An Ran, casually wrapping an arm around her shoulder. He raised an eyebrow mischievously at Sun Wangbei, "To celebrate my promotion? And yet, before I even arrive, you’re eating, drinking, and playing around. Isn’t that a bit disrespectful? I won’t say much—let’s have a penalty of three drinks."
Sun Wangbei: "..."
It felt like he’d shot himself in the foot.
Just then, Shen Wenxuan walked in, having just finished a day’s work. Seeing Mu Wanxin, he waved, "Wenxuan, I’m over here."
Shen Wenxuan first went to the stereo to turn down the deafening sound, then walked over to Mu Wanxin, sitting between her and An Ran.
"In the future, remember not to turn up the stereo so loud at these gatherings; it’ll affect the baby’s hearing."
Mu Wanxin nodded vigorously, "Got it, Brother Wenxuan."
As she responded, she made a face at him the moment he turned his head.
An Ran suppressed her laughter, pretending not to see it. When she saw Shen Wenxuan taking out a folder and handing it to her, she received it in confusion.
"What’s this, Brother?"
"Open it and take a look. If there are no objections, just sign at the back." Shen Wenxuan handed her a pen.
An Ran opened the folder, and a few big words caught her eye: Transfer Contract for Kong Mansion Banquet Franchise Rights
"Brother, what’s this?"
Mu Wanxin also leaned over, immediately seeing the situation, hugging Shen Wenxuan’s arm and sincerely praising, "Brother Wenxuan, did you handle this today? You’re amazing."
Shen Wenxuan ruffled his wife’s hair and said to An Ran, "Neither the Shen Family nor the Mu Family are easy to mess with. Since they’ve done such things, they have to bear the consequences. Otherwise, in this Imperial City, do they think any random cat or dog can step on the necks of the Shen and Mu families? Kong Linghui is experienced in business, so he naturally understands the consequences of offending these families."
This morning, he received a call from Kong Linghui, wanting to apologize to them in person. Shen Wenxuan, of course, would not give him that satisfaction and directly declined. By the afternoon, Kong Linghui had already sent over the transfer contract through a friend.
It was often said that Kong Linghui was clever and straightforward in his dealings, especially spoiling his only sister to the bone. Now, this rumor seems confirmed.
In fact, yesterday’s events were mainly caused by his sister’s family, and in the end, he was willing to give up the painstakingly managed Kong Mansion Banquet to make amends.
Since Kong Linghui gave such a generous gift for his sister’s sake, he would accept it on behalf of his own sister.
This was only because of Kong’s discernment. As he himself said, neither the people of the Shen Family nor the Mu Family are pushovers, especially when they bullied the eldest daughter of the Shen Family, the Young Madam of the Mu Family.
