Chapter 1807 - 1806: You Have No Sense
QM thought about it and figured that was right. "Yeah... but that’s all because you, the butler, stuck your nose where it didn’t belong."
The old master shot a cold look at the butler to the side.
The butler jolted and shrank back in fear.
The old master smiled. "As for him, I’ll deal with him later. Since you’re all here already, stay and rest a bit. Ye Ning, I’ll have Yeli come pick you up. Don’t wander around alone."
Ye Ning lowered her head. "Okay, Grandpa."
Behind them, the butler just stood there staring in a daze.
Was it because Ye Ning was pregnant that he was being so lenient with her, even being so forgiving toward her friends as well...
But... was this how the old master usually was?
Back when Mu Hai was younger, he hadn’t been like this either.
It’s just that he was old now, had been holding down the fort from behind the scenes for a long time. At his age, he didn’t want any more conflicts with the outside world. These days, everyone’s busy making money; it really isn’t the time for all that killing and fighting anymore. So, if Mu Yeli could stay on peaceful terms with QM, he was of course happy about it.
He looked at QM. "Alright, go have some fun and look around."
Sui Qinglan watched from behind in shock.
She had thought she was about to see Ye Ning get punished, but who knew...
She looked at the old master.
"Father, this... Ye Ning, she... this person... who is this person, how come..."
Mu Hai turned back to glance at her and said to Sui Qinglan, "What, he’s a guest of our Mu Family."
"..."
The butler stood to the side, looking miserable. "Old master..."
He glared at the butler.
"We’ll talk about your issue later."
After following him for so many years, he actually didn’t understand what he meant, and didn’t have the slightest eye for things.
The butler only felt a wave of shock inside.
Ye Ning watched him clutching his arm, turning back to look as he walked away, her raised eyebrow and provocative look extremely obvious.
The butler stood there stunned again and again, and in the end could only... rub his head and leave.
As for Sui Qinglan, she just stood there staring and staring, and still didn’t understand what on earth had happened.
Ye Ning led QM outside first.
"Come on, since today you’re our honored guest, let’s walk around."
That line was clearly meant for Sui Qinglan to hear as well.
Sui Qinglan indeed looked utterly awkward, standing there, glaring in anger, but since the old master had already spoken, what... could she say?
The butler went inside, gratefully dropping to his knees as he asked, "Old master, this, this, I..."
The old master let out a cold snort, grabbed his cane, and directly hurled it at his face.
"Ow..."
"All these years with me for nothing. You didn’t even recognize who that was?"
"Ah? That... who was that?"
"That was QM."
"..."
The butler collapsed to the floor all at once, even forgetting the pain in his arm.
Right now he was only grateful for one thing.
His head was still on...
He was still alive.
Which meant that... at least he hadn’t screwed up to the absolute extreme.
Even though the Mu Family was never afraid of that Organization, QM.
But QM himself was a murder maniac; everyone knew that.
So he was also thankful at this moment that he hadn’t been killed.
Otherwise, that man would at most be deported, and no one could do anything to him. His own death would have been for nothing.
...
Outside.
Wherever Ye Ning went, people immediately moved chairs over for her, and fruit and all kinds of food were brought out.
QM looked around. "The Mu Family is really extravagant. Mu Yeli’s place is already big enough, and this place is even bigger..."
Ye Ning said, "That’s the perk of walking the white road—you don’t have to hole up underground every day."
"Heh, like your GT doesn’t hole up underground."
"Sorry, we can go topside too, we just don’t like it up there, okay? We work with governments around the world, thank you very much."
"Ha, if you don’t go up, isn’t it because you’re afraid of getting assassinated? You GT lot know more secrets than anyone else in the world."
