Chapter 37
Besides Phil, there was another person whom Chu Muxi also wanted to invite, but his identity attracted too much attention.
If he showed up at his coming-of-age ceremony dinner for no reason, it would definitely cause a sensation.
He didn’t want his name to appear in the headlines of the media the next day.
That influence was much greater than Chu Mubei’s scandal, and of course, the two couldn’t be compared.
However, Chu Muxi was a little confused.
Because the other party should know about his coming-of-age ceremony dinner. Whether he comes or not was none of his business, but whether he sent an invitation or not was his business.
After struggling for a while, Chu Muxi couldn’t help but send the other party a text message.
[Grandpa is going to hold a coming-of-age dinner for me at the Shen family’s old house tomorrow night. Well, I want to ask Marshal if you have time to attend the dinner.]
Chu Muxi felt a little nervous. He wanted the other party to come, but he was also worried that it would cause unnecessary trouble.
As the coming-of-age ceremony approaches, it meant that system matching was coming soon.
Wrong! Chu Muxi suddenly remembered something very important.
There might be no system matching in this life!
In his previous life, Chu Lulu deliberately uploaded information to the system matching center, and Lu Junzhi didn’t know the reason, so the information was also uploaded.
But in this life, as long as he keeps an eye on it, Chu Lulu should have no chance to upload his information.
Because this requires personal fingerprint entry to be effective, he was deceived by Chu Lulu in the first place. But Lu Junzhi’s fingerprints shouldn’t be so easy to get.
That meant in this life, there should be no chance for him to successfully match Lu Junzhi again, right?
Chu Muxi’s expression was a little complicated, and he couldn’t tell whether he was happy or unhappy at the moment.
Lu Junzhi’s text message had been replied – [I will come.]
The confused heart seemed to settle down all of a sudden, no matter what! Chu Muxi thought, ‘just take it one step at a time.’
[Okay, let me tell grandpa.]
Chu Muxi thought about it and couldn’t help but say another sentence, [If you don’t want to appear in front of others that day, you can leave early. As long as you come, I will be happy.]
[Fine.] Lu Junzhi replied again.
[Then I won’t delay your work. See you tomorrow night.]
[See you tomorrow night.]
Chu Muxi put down the communication device and thought about Lu Junzhi coming to attend the dinner tomorrow night, feeling a little excited for a moment.
“What are you thinking about? Your expression is so rippling, tsk tsk tsk. You’re going to have an adult ceremony soon. Are you impatient to feel what it’s like to be an adult? Do you want me to take you back to see the experience?” Phil came over and asked with a smirk.
Chu Muxi pushed his big face away, “Thank you, no need.”
“Tsk, you don’t understand the benefits of being an adult. You will understand later.” Phil snorted.
Chu Muxi looked him up and down and said, “You say it as if you already know.”
But he knew that the royal family was very strict in this regard. Even if Phil was an adult, he would never have the chance to go to that kind of place. Even though his whereabouts were kept very secret, as the most beloved little prince, he received the strictest discipline.
Phil looked embarrassed after being exposed, “Why do we have to hurt each other!”
Chu Muxi smiled and said nothing.
.
In the evening, he returned to the Chu family’s house to pack his things. After entering, he found He Hui sitting on the sofa talking to someone on the phone.
Chu Lulu was not at home, and Chu Mubei’s howling could not be heard from the second floor. Ever since Chu Tianhao locked him in the room and didn’t allow him to come out, he could always be heard smashing things inside and cursing people in the first two days, but it seemed to have calmed down a lot in the past two days.
Chu Tianhao was not here, and Chu Muxi didn’t need to save face. Ignoring He Hui directly, he walked to the second floor.
“Stop!” He Hui hung up the communication device and suddenly shouted.
Chu Muxi stood on the stairs, looked back at her, and said nothing.
“Is this how you treat your elders? Without even saying hello?” He Hui held her breath and stared at him displeased.
Chu Muxi only found it funny, “Elder? Who?”
“You – uneducated thing, I am still your stepmother now!” He Hui scolded.
Chu Muxi smiled instead of getting angry, “Don’t worry, my father is not here now, I don’t need to show off? Besides, stepmother? Haha, don’t flatter yourself, are you even worthy?” He sneered and taunted the other side.
He Hui’s expression changed, and she shouted loudly: “How could you talk to me like that?! I am your father’s wife, and I am now the madam of the Chu family! How dare you talk to me like this?!”
“Okay. Stop pretending to be the madam of the Chu family in front of me.” Chu Muxi glanced at her contemptuously, with disdain and contempt written all over his face. “I’m just too lazy to pay attention to you now, but some people insist on being shameless, so don’t blame me for taking action.”
“Okay! I knew you were responsible for the Mubei incident! You still don’t admit it!” He Hui said as she rushed forward and pulled Chu Muxi.
Chu Muxi waved her hand gently, shaking He Hui away. “Don’t touch me; I feel dirty.”
He sneered at He Hui, saying, “If I were you, I would just stay at home and stop being a monster. Maybe you can still keep your position as the madam of the Chu family for a little longer.”
“What do you mean?!” He Hui was shocked. “Do you want to do something to us again?! You crazy bitch! What good will it do to you if you harm Mubei! He is your brother! If he has a scandal, your face will be ruined!”
“Stop teasing me.” Chu Muxi looked down at him, his tone full of disdain. “Is an illegitimate son of a mistress worthy of being my brother? He Hui, let me warn you for the last time, don’t mess with me. Otherwise, your end will be even worse.”
Chu Muxi delivered the warning word by word, then turned around and went upstairs, paying no attention to He Hui’s pale face.
‘So, so terrible! Is this still the same boy whom she could bullied casually?’
He Hui’s hands trembled; a hint of malice flashed in her eyes. ‘No! I can’t admit defeat! For Mubei and Lulu, I must help them be the legitimate children of Chu family! No one can stop me! Anyone who blocks me will die! Even Chu Tianhao!’ He Hui thought grimly.
