Chapter 296: The Most Powerful Mistress
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Jun gave birth to a daughter for Mu Guo. The entire pregnancy and delivery process was extremely dangerous, but the mother and daughter were finally safe.
Mu Guo did not have any feelings for his two sons, nor did he have any self-awareness as their father. Those two children had nothing to do with him.
But this daughter was different.
This daughter was the fruit of his and Lin Jun’s love. She was the most precious jade in his heart.
Her daughter had received all of Mu Guo’s love and attention since she was young.
The family of three was blissful.
No matter what Duan Si did or how Mu Chen threatened him, they could not change Mu Guo’s mind. He would rather break off ties with the Mu Family than leave Lin Jun and the child.
Afraid that Lin Jun would become the second An Ya, Mu Guo had taken extreme measures to ensure their safety. Even if Duan Si found them, she wouldn’t be able to do anything.
Unlike An Ya’s honesty, Lin Jun was noble, cold, and aloof. Duan Si’s unreasonable behavior in public would only result in her humiliating herself.
In the end, Mu Chen had no choice but to make a move because Duan Si had already embarrassed the Mu Family.
It was fine if Mu Guo did not go home. Mu Guo’s father still had two grandsons, especially his eldest grandson, Mu Ci. He could surpass his father and become the heir of the Mu Family.
Hence, Mu Ci was the direct victim of the previous generation’s relationship. He was a tool.
Just as this matter entered a period of equilibrium, the matriarch of the Mu Family fell sick. Her blood disease required a bone marrow transplant. However, the one who could match her was that illegitimate daughter of Mu Guo, whom the Mu Family did not intend to acknowledge.
Without another word, Lin Jun carried the child to the hospital.
Duan Si was on the verge of despair as if she was facing a great enemy. Even though she was the daughter-in-law that Old Master and Old Madam had taken a fancy to, she could not compare to the life-saving grace that Lin Jun and her daughter had given to the matriarch of the Mu Family!
Before Lin Jun could make any requests, Duan Si wanted to jump off a building with her two sons. When Old Jiang rushed over with his men to stop them, he accidentally pushed Mu Ci down. Mu Ci suffered multiple fractures and almost lost his life.
Mu Chen was in an unprecedented dilemma.
Then, Lin Jun waited until Old Madam’s critical period was over before leaving the hospital with the child without making any requests.
Even when Old Madam asked Mu Guo to ask, Lin Jun only replied that it was what they should do. They would help even strangers, let alone the child’s biological grandmother.
Everyone in the Mu Family fell silent, including Duan Si.
Hence, Old Madam said that this child’s surname was Mu and her name was changed to Mu Yao. She was a child recognized by the Mu Family.
At this point, Mu Guo, Duan Si, and Lin Jun’s situation had become very stable.
Duan Si had given birth to two sons for the Mu Family. Her position was very stable, but she did not have love. Her husband and her were not strangers. After all, the two of them still had to appear as husband and wife on some important occasions that required them to appear as a couple.
As for the inside, it was useless no matter how hard Duan Si cried. Mu Chen and his wife owed Duan Si, but she had ignored Mu Ci’s life several times, making them very disappointed in her. On account that she was not a scheming person, they were more forgiving towards her.
Lin Jun had become the most powerful third party in the city, a publicly acknowledged third party with her own identity and social status. Even in business, no one dared to underestimate her.
She had even been the role model for all the women in the city. As a woman, one should live as ostentatiously and freely as Lin Jun.
However, Lin Jun couldn’t be replicated. One could have her talent, looks, ability, and temperament, but she might not be as lucky as her.
Thanks to her mother, Mu Yao had lived like the daughter of any wealthy family since she was young. She was an illegitimate daughter, but she was different from those illegitimate daughters who were bullied by legitimate children. No legitimate child of the Mu Family dared to treat Mu Yao badly because she was Old Madam Mu’s savior.
This alone was enough for her to do whatever she wanted among her peers.
Moreover, her two half-brothers did not suppress or ostracize her.
Mu Ci was raised by his grandparents and was close to his Grandma, so he was naturally grateful to Mu Yao from the bottom of his heart. As for Mu En, he had Lin Jun to take care of his business, so he naturally had nothing to say.
Bei Shuo sighed softly after listening to the entire story. “Everything makes sense, but it’s also so speechless. Everyone is envious of Mu Yao. However, Mu Yao looks like an obedient girl on the surface, but she’s very twisted on the inside. From the beginning, I felt that she was a little abnormal..”
