Chapter 623: 179 Endless Night_3

Su Zhen then lowered her gaze.

"You’re now stepping into society, joining the workforce," her father said, "it’s fine if you don’t follow the path I’ve arranged for you, but if you can’t chat properly with others outside, you’re going to suffer a big loss."

"Mhm!"

Su Zhen looked at her father then responded unhappily.

Mr. Su sighed softly: It’s all because her mother and I spoiled her! I’ll drink first then! Firstly, to apologize for the trouble this girl has caused you all in Rongcheng.

Qin Mu hadn’t expected Mr. Su to lower himself so much, but it had nothing to do with her.

After Mr. Su finished a drink, he remained standing and gestured to Su Zhen to help him pour the wine.

Su Zhen immediately picked up the bottle and stood up to help with the pouring.

Mr. Su then raised his glass: This one is to thank you all for taking care of this girl, and I hope you’ll be more tolerant of her in the future. If there’s any issue, please communicate with me promptly, and I’ll surely criticize and educate her.

Qin Mu thought, what use is criticizing and educating her after she’s made a mistake?

"Father-in-law, Uncle Yang, could you help me take care of Mr. Su?" Mu Yichen suddenly looked up and said, "We still have a daughter waiting for us to come home to tuck her in, and it’s really not suitable to stay late."

Then, he also picked up his glass, and standing up, called to Qin Mu, "Let’s toast Mr. Su together to welcome him to Rongcheng for sightseeing, shall we?"

Qin Mu knew these matters were troublesome, but still stood up with her own glass in hand.

She had juice in her water glass, but no one could pick fault with that, after all, she was pregnant.

"Mr. Su, please don’t overthink it, it’s just that my wife and child need care now, and I don’t have much spare time. Next time you come to Rongcheng, I will surely do my duty as a host," Mu Yichen said before clinking glasses.

Su Zhen, seeing that Mu Yichen had given her father enough respect, finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stood up to help her father with the wine.

"Mmm!"

"Yichen, with your father-in-law and Uncle Yang here, is there a need for you to play the host?"

Yang Bo’s father said with a smile.

It wasn’t to criticize Mu Yichen’s words as incorrect, but to remind certain people not to take themselves too seriously in Rongcheng.

Mu Yichen remained composed, just smiling faintly, and after finishing his drink, he left with Qin Mu.

Qin Mu nodded to Yang Bo’s father before leaving, then glanced at Qin Haiming and ultimately, she just lowered her head.

Mr. Su, watching from beneath lowered lashes as Qin Mu looked at Qin Haiming, always felt that the father-daughter relationship was not good, at least Qin Mu had a barrier in her heart towards Qin Haiming.

Not long after they left, Su Zhen also stood up, toasted the elders, then left, only returning to her father’s room after all the drinks were finished.

After Mr. Su went into the guest room, he sat down on the living room sofa and asked his daughter, "Did you see clearly during the meal today? Your father has no right to speak in Rongcheng."

"Mu always treated my father with politeness," Su Zhen replied, sitting down on the sofa with him.

"Hmph! That’s all just a façade; he doesn’t think that way at all! Zhenzhen, your father still hopes you’ll come back with me to D City. What boy there wouldn’t you be able to choose from? I heard that the two of them have already registered their marriage and the wedding is coming soon. What’s the point of staying here?"

"I just want to watch them get married!"

Su Zhen said carelessly.

Mr. Su looked at his daughter and raised his hand to grasp hers: "Don’t worry your father, okay?"

"I know! How could I make you worry? I was just too high-profile when I first came. I thought even if Mu cherished Qin Mu, he wouldn’t ignore a beauty delivered to his doorstep, but who knew—it’s probably because Qin Mu is pregnant now, so he doesn’t want to provoke her. Oh well, from now on, I’ll be more careful in everything I do. Don’t worry about me, and let mom rest easy, too. I’m not a child anymore."

"Whether you’re a child or not, look at Qin Hai’s daughter. She’s younger than you, speaks less than you, but isn’t she much shrewder? Hmm?"

Mr. Su asked his daughter, also reminding her.

"You noticed her shrewdness after just one meeting?"

Su Zhen asked incredulously, with a hint of jealousy.

"Hmph! If she wasn’t shrewd, could a sly fox like Mu Yichen treat her so well? Daughter, have you been so focused on your studies these past years that you’ve forgotten about real life?"

Mr. Su looked at his beloved daughter with some concern and asked her.

Su Zhen then became anxious, standing up with a sigh: "Dad, I know she’s smart, but your daughter is definitely not a fool. It’s just that she’s too guarded, and she had blocked my way before I even entered the battlefield."
