Borrowing Someone’s Name to Act
Song Ning looked at Liang Zhou. "First, I didn't promise you anything. Second, I advise you not to have
any ulterior motives. It won't be good if you ruin the present happiness!"
Liang Zhou said indignantly, "Then don't blame me for being impolite..."
Song Ning replied calmly, "Do as you wish as long as you can bear the consequences..." Following
that, she turned around to leave.
Liang Zhou stomped her feet. "Song Ning! You clearly didn't object to us coming for dinner. As long as
you're willing to help me, I'll definitely repay you in the future!"
Song Ning did not turn around as she said, "Whether you can continue to stay or not is beyond my
control. I can't help you, and I don't need you to repay me either. I'll say it again: you better not have
any thoughts about Grandma. Don't even think about hurting her." After that, she opened the door and
left.
This woman really has too many thoughts. I don't know how she bewitched Mu Chen's father...'
...
After the meal, everyone shifted to the living room to chat.
Song Ning helped Sister Yu and brought various fruit platters.
Liang Zhou squeezed next to Mu Qing on the couch.
At this moment, Mu Qing was telling Jiang Jin his interesting experiences when he was abroad.
Jiang Jin and Sister Yu were engrossed listening to Mu Qing's story.
On the other hand, Cheng Che approached Mu Chen to play a game.
Liang Zhou spoke softly to Jiang Jin, "The Young Madam is really gentle and virtuous. She's very
understanding as well."
Jiang Jin smiled and nodded. Then, she said to Mu Chen, "Song Ning is indeed a good child. It's Mu
Chen's blessing to be able to marry her."
Mu Qing smiled. "Since Grandma approves of her, it's only natural that she's good..."
Jiang Jin was about to speak out when Liang Zhou suddenly said, "Song Ning just said that we've been
away for so long and are unable to show the Old Madam filial piety. She suggested we move back to
the family house. Our family will be reunited at that time, and it'd be beautiful. I think what she said
made sense. She's really sensible..."
Everyone suddenly froze.
Jiang Jin and Sister Yu looked at Song Ning in astonishment. After all, Song Ning had never expressed
such thoughts to them before.
Song Ning, who was holding onto a fruit platter at this moment, was caught off guard by Liang Zhou's
words. She instinctively turned to look at Mu Chen and saw the hurt in his eyes. He silently put down
the chess piece in his hand and rose to his feet. In the process, he accidentally flipped the chessboard
over. The sound of the falling chessboard and chess pieces sounded like the sound of a heart being
broken.
Mu Chen strode to the staircase, clearly intending to head upstairs.
Song Ning shouted, "Mu Chen, stop right there!"
Surprisingly, Mu Chen stopped in his tracks and did as he was told.
Song Ning inhaled deeply and placed the fruit platter on the table. Then, she looked at the fallen
chessboard and chess pieces before she said sternly to Cheng Che, "Pick it up."
Cheng Che shuddered. He lowered his head and immediately began to pick up the chess pieces and
the chessboard.
Subsequently, Song Ning walked up to Mu Chen and raised her head to look at him. "Just a casual
sentence from an outsider is enough for you to doubt me? Did you even try to ask me for the truth? You
believe the words of an outsider without even consulting me. Don't I even get a chance to defend
myself? Mu Chen, have you lost your mind?"
Mu Chen's cold expression began to ease.
Song Ning stared at him and asked, "Don't you think you owe me an apology?"
Mu Chen slowly reached out and grabbed Song Ning's hand. He said softly, "I'm sorry; I was wrong."
Song Ning looked at him fiercely. Then, she pulled him to the living room and pushed him to sit on the
couch. She looked at Liang Zhou who was maintaining the posture of a bullied victim, but her gaze was
vicious.
Song Ning smiled faintly as she said, "Ms. Liang, you've been praising me non-stop just so you can
borrow my name to return to the family house, right? I didn't say anything of that sort and remained
silent, but you seized this opportunity, thinking I would be unable to defend myself, right?"
Liang Zhou said apologetically and timidly, "Song Ning, I... I didn't expect you didn't discuss the matter
with Mu Chen. I'm sorry for causing a conflict between both of you. I'm really, really sorry." She leaned
closer against Mu Qing as though she was being bullied.
Mu Qing's gaze toward Song Ning turned unfriendly immediately.
Mu Chen felt the scene before him was an eyesore. He said icily, "Back then, something like this
happened here as well, right? You wanted to stay so you used mother's name and said that mother
wanted you to stay for a few days. In fact, mother said no such things. However, you knew that All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
because you were sisters, she would not say anything to embarrass you. You forced her to accept that.
Following that, you stayed for more than a few days until you finally climbed into his bed..."
Liang Zhou's face paled immediately.
Mu Chen sneered. "Back then, my mother didn't say anything and endured the grievances on her own.
She even had to endure people saying she invited a wolf into her house. It's been more than ten years,
and you still want to use the same trick on Song Ning? You thought she would endure and remain
silent, right? Unfortunately, you miscalculated."
Following that, he lifted Song Ning's hand and gently kissed it. He looked at her with eyes shining with
affection and determination..
