Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 2082 - 2086: Can’t Put It Down

Muu Qingwan’s anger had mostly dissipated.

Time can change many things.

Perhaps someday in the future, their family of five could put aside past grievances and live happily together.

Behind them, in the building they had left, Muu Qingwan returned to her office, washed her face, and sat behind her desk to work.

Because she practiced martial arts from a young age, she liked reading martial arts novels as a child.

Her favorite character was Huang Rong from "Legends of the Condor Heroes."

In "Legends of the Condor Heroes," there are four unparalleled masters: the Southern Emperor, the Northern Beggar, the Eastern Heretic, and the Western Venom.

The Southern Emperor, one of these unparalleled masters, was a kind elder who adored Huang Rong.

The Northern Beggar was Huang Rong’s master.

The Eastern Heretic was Huang Rong’s father.

Later, there were two other top masters who could match these four, one was Huang Rong’s husband, and the other was her lifelong friend.

When she was young, she truly envied Huang Rong.

Because Huang Rong was someone who enjoyed boundless affection and love, she had a strong support network, and hardly anyone dared to cross her.

She hopes that in the future, her and Yun Jue’s daughter, or any of the next generation in the Gu Family, could become a "Huang Rong."

She knows that the Gu Family is already very powerful now. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But she still wants to make the Gu Family even stronger through her own efforts.

She hopes that one day, she could grow to a point where people would fear her.

That in the future when people speak of the Gu Family, they’d say, "Don’t mess with the Gu Family, they’re too formidable. Not to mention others, even Muu Qingwan alone is not to be trifled with."

She must work hard.

She must become very, very strong.

She wants to protect Yun Jue and everyone Yun Jue loves.

She took a deep breath, opened a folder, put aside all distractions, and began to strive.

The next day, at noon.

The entire Gu Family held an engagement banquet at the Beijing Hotel for Yun Jue and Muu Qingwan.

The Gu Family’s engagement banquets are never extravagantly organized; they always consist of just a meal together with both the groom’s and the bride’s families.

In Muu Qingwan’s special case, no one from the bride’s family attended, so Senior Master Gu invited a few of his old friends.

Senior Master Gu’s friends are often people you see on TV; although she hadn’t spoken to them, Ye Xingbei found every face familiar.

The ones she was most familiar with were Eldest Xiang, Lingyue’s grandfather, and Senior Master Li, Li Qi’s grandfather, as well as her own grandfather, Senior Master Xie.

All the seniors present already knew that Xiao Shu was the biological son of Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei.

Aside from amazement, there was also envy.

Especially from Senior Master Xie, who couldn’t bear to part with Xiao Shu.

After all, he was his great-grandchild!

Older people tend to love children.

Ye Xingbei didn’t grow up around him, so his love for her was based on the fondness he felt for his deceased daughter.

But as for Xiao Shu, he genuinely loved him from the bottom of his heart.

Just the thought that this little guy was his daughter’s grandchild, sharing his bloodline, made him cherish Xiao Shu profoundly, unwilling to let him go.

Senior Master Li watched Senior Master Xie, who couldn’t get enough of holding Xiao Shu, and said, "It’s truly amazing! Xiao Shu is actually your great-grandchild! You and the old leader really are fortunate!"

"I didn’t expect it either," Senior Master Xie laughed heartily, "I always wondered why I liked Xiao Shu so much when I saw him; turns out it’s the call of blood. Xiao Shu looks just like my little daughter when she was small."
