44 Patient Persuasion

Song Nan took a deep breath and forced a perfect smile. “Auntie! I’m just saying it on the surface. You have to at least accept Bei Shuo on the surface and not go against Old Master. Only then can Old Master let down his guard. Only then will you have a chance to take the next step. Or you can find an opportunity to prove that Bei Shuo isn’t a good person or find an excuse to chase her out. Don’t you think so?”

Duan Si did not realize that her words had let Song Nan know her true intentions. She was seriously thinking about the feasibility of Song Nan’s idea.

“It’s very difficult for me to accept that girl on the surface. I’m not a two-faced and duplicitous person!” Duan Si was very vexed.

Song Nan looked at her and tried to persuade her patiently. “Auntie, think about Mu En. Now that Mu En is publicly recognized as the successor of the Mu Corporation, he’s also very popular with the Old Master. As you said just now, are you willing to let Bei Shuo stay in this house and get in the way of Mu En’s future wife when Mu Ci is no longer around?”

Duan Si immediately shook her head. “Absolutely not!”

“So, for Mu En’s sake, you have to reluctantly accept Bei Shuo or pretend to accept her. It’s useless even if you suspect that she has ulterior motives. Old Master doesn’t let your doctor get close to Mu Ci at all. You have to work on Mu Ci and make an issue of something if you want to expose her or chase her away. What do you think?” Song Nan persuaded her earnestly, feeling extremely impatient.

Duan Si finally nodded. “Song Nan, you’re right. Let me think about what I should do. I want to think about it.”

“There’s nothing to think about. You just have to think about Mu En and his wife from time to time.” Song Nan heaved a sigh of relief when she finally understood.

Duan Si nodded again and sighed. “Song Nan, if you weren’t by my side, how am I going to live like this? Sigh, it’s a pity that we don’t have the blessings to be mother-in-law and daughter-in-Law.”

Song Nan remained silent.

Duan Si was afraid that she would use her status to bully her youngest daughter-in-law when she became a widow in the future if she married her to her eldest son. If she married her to her youngest son, she would feel that she was not worthy of her precious treasure in all aspects.

Song Nan felt that she would be letting herself down if she did not make good use of such a person.

Mu Ci was drenched in sweat after the rehabilitation.

Bei Shuo handed him a towel to wipe his sweat. “Take a shower when you wiped your sweat away. Otherwise, the humidity will invade and hurt your body. Rehabilitation will help you recover your walking ability. This kind of sweat will also help you detoxify. Although the Snow Pill can detoxify the poison, the residual poison accumulated in various parts of your body will need to be cleaned up for a period of time. It won’t be so easy to get rid of it. Brother, don’t be anxious. As the saying goes, illnesses come quickly but go slowly. It’s also very important to maintain a calm state of mind.”

Mu Ci sat on the carpet with his hands on his legs. He placed the towel around his neck and was not in a hurry to wipe his sweat. He smiled at Bei Shuo. “I’m not in a rush. I’m not anxious at all. I haven’t walked for so many years. I’ve already been very satisfied to have such an effect all of a sudden.”

Bei Shuo sat down cross-legged opposite him and smiled brightly. “I like you to listen to my advice. You’re a good patient.”

Mu Ci smiled helplessly. When would this girl understand?

He reached out and ran his fingers through Bei Shuo’s hair. Her hair was neither long nor long. She wore it down usually, but she would grab something to tie it up when she was working. It could be a chopstick or a pen.

“Get the stylist to come over tomorrow and cut our hair. I’ll also prepare some clothes for you.” He was in a good mood now.

However, Bei Shuo said, “Brother, do you want to cut your hair short? But I think you look very good like this!”

The corners of Mu Ci’s lips curled up slightly. Bei Shuo only listened to what she wanted to hear when she was obedient. She ignored everything else.

He nodded. “Alright, I won’t cut it then. Let him trim your hair. Isn’t school starting soon?”

At the mention of this, Bei Shuo couldn’t help but perk up. “That’s right! Brother, come visit the school with me when you’re free. I’ve never been there before!”

“Alright, get Uncle Liu to arrange a professional driver to pick you up every day after school starts,” Mu Ci said gently.

Bei Shuo nodded. “Alright. Brother hasn’t recovered yet. I won’t be able to take care of you if I stay on campus.”

Mu Ci was angry. Why was the reason that she didn’t stay on campus because she couldn’t take care of him? Wasn’t it because they were already married and couldn’t live separately?

However, Mu Ci didn’t say anything when he met Bei Shuo’s clear eyes.

It seemed like he still had to continue working hard!
