Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

During breakfast, Mu Shijia looked at Mu Ling coldly and thought, ‘Why didn’t the fire last night burn this little bastard to death? This would save him a lot of trouble!’

He said coldly, ” I’ve already called dad’s will lawyer. He’ll be here in a while. Ling, don’t run around. Dad’s will has rules. When it’s read, you must be there!

Mu Ling ate her breakfast elegantly and nodded. “I know, big brother.”

Mu Wan, who was sitting across from him, did not have a good expression on her face. She wanted to throw the knife and fork in her hand at Mu Ling’s face, but she held back! After reading her Father’s will and getting this little b * stard to sign and give up the inheritance, she would have plenty of opportunities to deal with her!

After breakfast, the will lawyer arrived and everyone was gathered in the living room.

The will lawyer took out three wills and placed them on the table. “Madam Mu, Mr. Mu’s will is divided into three parts.”

“I understand,” Qiu Liqin said. “You can start reading.”

The lawyer flipped open the first will. “The first part of the will is Mr. Mu Jingwen’s last words to his family.”

Mu Jingwen’s last words to Qiu Liqin and his children were all words of advice. During the reading process, everyone was very impatient. They didn’t care about the last words, but the inheritance!

Mu Ling naturally noticed the Mu family’s expressions. She suddenly felt some sympathy for the father she had never met. He was dead, but the family did not remember him at all. They only cared about the inheritance. It was too sad!

After reading the last words, the lawyer opened the second part. “In Mu Jingwen’s second will, he made the following decision for the properties under his name …”

Upon hearing this, Mu Shijia immediately perked up and straightened his back. He seemed to have already heard the lawyer announcing that he would become the head of the Mu group.

The lawyer: ” The Mu group will be jointly managed by Mr. Mu Jingwen’s eldest son, Mu Shijia, and second son, Mu Shihe. However, the two of them have no right to make any decisions. All decisions must be passed through the Board of Directors.”

Mu Shijia’s face darkened. He interrupted the lawyer in disbelief and said,”What?”

Without any decision-making power, what was the difference between him and a puppet?

“Wait!” Qiu Liqin grabbed her son’s arm and said, ” let’s hear it all first.”

Even though he was unwilling, he could only suppress his anger and sit down.

The lawyer continued to read, “When Mr. Mu Jingwen was alive, he set up a Foundation. After deducting the necessary expenses of the family, Madam Mu, Qiu Liqin, will receive a fixed monthly living allowance of 200000 Yuan. The eldest miss, Mu Wan, and the second Miss, Mu Shi, will each receive 100000 Yuan as living expenses. Miss Mu Xin is still young, so she will receive 50000 Yuan as living expenses every month. Before she comes of age, Madam Mu will temporarily keep it safe.”

Hearing this, Mu Wan also couldn’t hold it in. She slammed the table and stood up, roaring,”Only a hundred thousand a month? What’s so good about this little money? Not even enough to buy a bag! Dad doted on me so much when he was alive, how could he have only left me this little money? This will must be fake!”

“Lawyer Zhao, are you mistaken? My husband shouldn’t have left such a will, right?” Although QiuLiqin was also anxious, she still pretended to be calm and noble.

“This will was personally written by Mr. Mu Jingwen. The doctor, the Foundation’s Chairman, and the three lawyers were all present. It’s absolutely fair and effective. Madam Mu, you don’t have to doubt it. Also, this will mentioned Miss Mu Ling …”

Everyone’s eyes fell on Mu Ling.

Mu Ling was also curious. She wanted to see what her father, whom she had never met, had left for her. Her expression was calm as she waited quietly.

The lawyer said, “what Mr. Mu Jingwen wants to express is that Miss Mu Ling has the same right to inherit the inheritance as everyone else. No one can interfere with or deprive her of this right. Even if she are forced or willing to sign any agreement to give up the inheritance!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned!

Qiu Liqin had wanted to force Mu Ling to sign the agreement and give up the inheritance after the announcement, but now it was all ruined! Mu Jingwen, that bastard, had ruined her plan!

The lawyer continued, “Mr. Mu Jingwen is giving Miss Mu Ling 50000 Yuan as living expenses every month. He also wants you to study in Jing city. At the same time, you’ll have the right to stay at the Mu family’s Villa. That’s all of Mr. Mu Jingwen’s will, and the time limit is one year.”

The lawyer closed the will after he finished reading it.

“What do you mean by one year?” asked Mu Shijia.

The lawyer said, “In other words, if you do anything out of line or disobey Mr. Mu Jingwen’s will in the coming year, you will lose the right to inherit the will forever. A year later, I will read out the last part of the will. In this will, Mr. Mu Jingwen will have other arrangements. As for what it is, it will have to be read out a year later.”
