528: Sowing Discord

Sowing Discord

Mu Chen's gaze was cold as he swept it across the entire venue. He said, "I believe that you prepared your draft before you even came here, right? The drafts probably say something along the lines of how I, Mu Chen, am unwilling to admit to secretly switching my wife and abandoning Chairman Ning's daughter, right? The drafts probably condemned me for being heartless as well, right? So what do you think now that the truth is right in front of your eyes? Do you now know how it feels to drop a rock on your own feet? I'm not in a hurry. I really want to see what you'll do next and how you intend to end things…"1

Mu Chen's words and attitude made the reporters lower their heads and avert their eyes. Even if they had not prepared a draft, they had already come to a conclusion in their minds. No one thought that things would take such a turn, and it was beyond their expectation that things would end up this way.

Second Granduncle Mu's expression was rather unsightly as he said reproachfully, "Things have already escalated to this extent, why must you still be so petty?"

Mu Chen sneered. "If I'm really petty, I wouldn't have tolerated all of you making a fuss until now."

"You!" Second Granduncle Mu was so furious that he felt his heart hurt.

Mu Qing hurriedly stepped forward to comfort Second Granduncle Mu and said, "Don't stoop to his level. He's young and insensible."

Mu Chen was even more disgusted when he looked at Mu Qing. "I'd like to see who can come up with an explanation today."

Mu Qing calmly said, "I think the matter is very clear."

Everyone turned to look at Mu Qing immediately.

Mu Qing continued to say, "I think that Chairman Ning didn't mistake someone else for his daughter. After all, how could he mistake his own flesh and blood? I know that the technology is very advanced now, but DNA tests aren't completely reliable. Perhaps, we're of the older generation so we don't know much about technology, but there are some things that technology can't beat. Right, Chairman Ning?"

Ning Zhe snapped out of his stupor. He looked embarrassed as he said, "Mr. Mu is wise. You're right. We, of the older generations, value family ties the most. How can I possibly mistake my daughter for someone else? Regardless of how advanced technology is, it can't beat family ties."

The two men had clearly decided to ally themselves again at this moment.

At the same time, the elders of the Mu family nodded in agreement.

The media was dumbfounded. What was happening now? With that, they all began to discuss fervently among themselves.

Meanwhile, Cheng Che and Song Ning looked at each other. They could see the shock in each other's eyes.

Only Mu Chen was calm and composed. Whether his heart was in turmoil or not, at the very least, he looked calm outwardly.

Cheng Che adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said sarcastically, "If that's the case, what's the point of making such a big fuss today? If we follow everyone's wishes, my brother only needs to listen to Chairman Ning and bring home someone who isn't even his wife. Is that the only way for everyone to be satisfied?"

Mu Qing shamelessly nodded, delighted. He said, "Cheng Che is right. We should just trust Chairman Ning."

Cheng Che almost leaped up in rage. "What do you mean I'm right? Why are you deliberately misconstruing my words?"

Mu Qing smiled and continued to say, "Cheng Che, I understand now why my mother always praises you for being more sensible than Mu Chen."

Cheng Chen was furious and anxious upon hearing this.

Song Ning and Mu Chen had to hold Cheng Che back from acting recklessly.

Mu Chen bluntly said, "Cheng Che, keep quiet. He's deliberately setting you up. You're not his match."

Mu Qing looked at Mu Chen helplessly like a father who was dealing with a rebellious child. His expression seemed to say, "Child, you can make a fuss as much as you want. I'm your father so I'm not angry."

Upon seeing this, Mu Chen's anger surged.
