章節 43: Chapter 43: I'm a man of my word
作者: Joe Mai 機器翻譯作品
Nangong Xun cut him off and said, "I have a habit of keeping my word."
2Nangong Xun was clearly unhappy about Xi Yuancheng's suggestion.
2"I was engaged to Xi Muru. In that case, I'll acknowledge only Xi Muru. I don't want any other woman, even if she's as beautiful as a fairy. As the saying goes, there are three treasures in a family—the ugly wife, barren land, and worn cotton coats. Therefore, I won't give my ugly wife to anyone else!"
2"But...Mu Ru has already married into the Dongfang family," Xi Yuancheng said helplessly.
2Xi Yuancheng was on the verge of tears. He looked at Nangong Xun and asked, "What should I do?" He sounded very pitiful.
2"What should you do?"
2"That's none of my concern!" Nangong Xun said angrily.
2As Nangong Xun spoke, he stood up and glared fiercely at Xi Yuancheng.
2"I'll come back tomorrow morning. By then, you must have thought of a way to get my Mu Ru back!" Nangong Xun said.
2Without waiting for Xi Yuancheng to respond, he immediately turned around and walked out the door.
2Nangong Xun believed that Xi Yuancheng would not dare to offend him. As for whether he would dare to offend Dongfang Mo or not, that was no longer his problem.
2"Dad, what did you say?" Xi Muxue shrieked.
2Within the confines of the Xi residence, Xi Muxue sounded very furious.
2"You want me to go and get a birthmark on my beautiful forehead? And then pretend to be Mu Ru to marry Nangong Xun? How can I do that? I will not do it!"
2In spite of her rage, she pondered on it. She liked Nangong Xun very much because he was handsome. His company in Singapore was as influential as the Dongfang Corporation was in Binhai, and Nangong Xun was a normal man for whom she could bear children. He was more than a hundred times better than Dongfang Mo.
2In fact, she was more than willing to marry Nangong Xun.
2She was not a fool. Marrying Nangong Xun meant stepping into a wealthy top-tier family. It was just like marrying into the Dongfang family, except that Nangong Xun was truly a man.
2Marrying Nangong Xun would at least allow her to enjoy a good sex life, while Xi Muru would be experiencing nothing but barrenness with Dongfang Mo.
2However, she was not willing to undergo plastic surgery to make herself look ugly and to fool Nangong Xun.
2Everyone had a love for beauty. Xi Muru had a birthmark on her forehead that she had to cover up with her bangs simply because it was too ugly. Mu Xue was not willing to compromise.
2She knew how beautiful she was. She wanted to flaunt her assets. Undergoing plastic surgery would rob her of that privilege.
2"You're not going to do it?" Xi Yuancheng said.
2Xi Yuancheng scoffed and snorted at his daughter's indifference.
2"What's the use? It's hopeless. Even though the Nangong Group is based in Singapore, their business is now global. I have heard that there was a mysterious organization behind the growing influence of the Nangong Group. The Oriental Group was afraid that if we offended the Nangong family, the Xi Empire would soon be on the verge of bankruptcy. The Xi Empire is almost bankrupt, so what is the use of being pretty?"
2Mu Xue pondered on it. "Well..."
2Xi Muxue, of course, knew how serious the consequences of Xi Empire's bankruptcy were, and she, a rich young lady, certainly did not want the Xi Empire to go bankrupt. She frowned and came up with a plan.
2"Dad, the reason why I didn't want to marry Dongfang Mo before was because I didn't know he had a younger brother, Dongfang Yu. How about this..."
2Xi Yuancheng frowned. He looked at his daughter. After a moment of silence, she helplessly said, "I am willing to marry Dongfang Mo."
2"All right then. We'll call Nangong Xun tomorrow morning and ask him to meet us at the home of the Dongfang family. As for whether we'll succeed or not, that's hard to say. After all, Dongfang Mo has already acknowledged Mu Ru as his wife."
