Chapter 440: The old masters share good news

When he returned home, his mind was at peace and no longer did he have any worries about Ji Haolin. He went directly to the bedroom, undressed and entered bed. He buried his head in Chi Lian’s neck and took and a deep breath.

She smelled like that new vanilla shampoo which she used to wash her hair. It was so enticing, it smelled like her and also like home. He smiled and embraced her tightly from the back.

"I love you." he mumbled.

"Hmm." she mumbled in her sleep, turned over to face him and continued sleeping.

Muyang kissed her on the forehead, closed his eyes and slept.

Early the next morning, Chi Lian woke up to work out, then she prepared Muyang’s breakfast and showered. He woke just as she was exiting the bathroom. He looked at the time and noticed that it was coming to seven o’clock.

"Oh, it’s late." he said.

"Hmm, I switched your alarm off because you went out again at night. Don’t worry I checked with Wenzhe and he said you have two afternoon classes and one dinner meeting. Your morning is wide open so you can take your time today."

"You are going to court." he stated.

"Yes, the first hearing for phoenix media versus Du Moxi is today at eight thirty. I have to be there for the first session in case the judge needs to hear about the damages directly from me. I also want to see Moxi’s face when she realizes just how fried she is.

The last time I saw her she looked at me as if I was beneath her."

She showed Muyang two outfits, "This or this, which one will make me look more professional?"

"Number two." he said.

She frowned, "I don’t have shoes to match number two."

Muyang thought about the close to thirty pairs of heels in the closet and he wondered how none of those shoes matched her outfit. It was a yellow suit, in his opinion any black shoe could match.

"Are you sure that she will show up?"

"Who, Du Moxi?" she asked as she went into the large walk in closet.

"Yes." he got out of bed and followed her.

"If she doesn’t then the police will arrest her, she has to respect the law just like all of us. Does she think court sermons are a joke? Although," she looked at Muyang and said, "Now that glory entertainment has terminated her contract I am sure will soon return begging me or my brother to take her back."

"Will you?"

She looked at him with perplexed eyes, as if he was speaking a foreign language. "Why in the world would I ever take her back? Am I a glutton for punishment? I have already replaced her."

"You have a soft heart." He thought.

She finished dressing up, she combed her hair applied some little make up and red lipstick.

"How do I look?" she asked him.

"Beautiful but you need shoes?" He went to her shoe racks and started looking for what he thought would be the perfect shoe for her outfit. "Is this good?"

He showed her a pair of black heels with a yellow gold heel and strap.

"Too high." she said. "But I can always change if I become too uncomfortable." She took them from his hands and kissed him. "Bye-bye my dear."

"One more," she had taken two steps and she returned, kissed him again and then raced out of the bedroom.

Muyang stayed standing where she left him, touching his lips and smiling like a fool in love.

Chi Lian bumped into the old madam as she was racing out.

"Chi-Chi, won’t you have breakfast?"

She briefly hugged the old madam. "Not today grandma, I have to be at the court house before eight. News that today is the first hearing of our case is already out there and reporters and Du Moxi’s fans might show up. I want to get there before chaos erupts."

"Okay, good luck." the old madam waved at her.

The chef came rushing out of the kitchen, "Young madam, you left your coffee flask behind."

"It’s too late, she has already gone." the old madam told him. "If it’s that special coffee just save it for the patriarch, he loves it too. Is he still out exercising?"

The old master who was thought to be exercising was sitting at the pavilion near the water fountain with his friends. Six old men were sitting in pairs and playing go. As they played, they discussed other affairs about things that were going on in the empire, specifically the business world.

Old master Jun was playing against old master Tao. As usual, these two bestfriends were sniping at each other.

"I heard that the bidding of sponsorships for next year’s spring gala is taking place next month. Does any of you know why it’s happening so soon?"

"Ask old Huang, he won top spot last year." old master Kang replied.

"By the way old Jun, isn’t today the first day of phoenix media’s lawsuit against that musician? Why are you here and not going to court, you and your wife have cultivated the reputation of the most grand daughter-in-law loving couple in the empire." old master Tao asked.

"The case has already been won, why should we bother to go?" old master Jun answered. He was rubbing his beard slowly as he contemplated his next move.

"Wow, you have that much faith in her lawyers." the old master of the Qi family commented.

"No, the faith is in my granddaughter, she is excellent at everything at she does and anything they throw at her, she will be ready." old master Wang said.

"Old Wang, the question was mine and not yours, why are you interfering?"

"She is still my granddaughter even though she married into my family."

Old master Jun suddenly bent his head closer to old master Tao and told the rest of his friends to gather around.

"What is this Mengzi?" old master Huang asked? They were not little girls who were talking about secret crushes that they needed to gather secretly like this.

"I am sharing secret inside information, you can use it if you want or ignore it. My grand daughter-in-law is doing something very big in the cold town. By this time next year the land and space in that place is going to be extremely valuable. If any of you is interested you should buy some buildings and land soon before that time comes."

"Hmph." old master Wang pursed his lips, "You cannot keep any secrets can you?"

"I am simply sharing good news with my friends, we have been doing this for each other since the seventies. Why do you think our families have remained prominent? The wealth that was made by our ancestors can never be lost in our hands. We have to grow it for the next generations just as our parents did for us." Old master Jun informed him.

The others all nodded.

"I will go tell someone to purchase right now."

"Me too."

One by one the other old men left and only old master Jun and Wang were left.

"Great, you have ruined the game now." old master Wang commented. "I might as well go and tell Wang Simin to speed up the purchase of a building. The more people buy the more suspicious it is going to get."

"I thought your family does not engage in business." looked at his in-law in surprise.

"Things change." the other replied.
