Title: The Villain’s Contract Lover

Chapter 66 - Recording (1)
The old lady was, naturally, very emotionally when she saw her grandson. They chitchatted for a little bit before she started working on convincing him. “You know, ZhenYu. Back in the days Liang ZhiQuan put aside her self-esteem and came to you for help and you wouldn’t even spare her a penny. Now that the Liang’s had a comeback and is looking better and better by the day. And what about you, hmm? You turned her away just like for that childish girl outside. Now you are suffering the consequences from that. That’s why I have always told you, to always leave some wiggle room when you deal with people. You can’t go wrong with that.”
Mu ZhenYu didn’t respond.
The old madam grumbled again. “And that girl, too. She knew that you are engaged. How could she approach you so shamelessly? Aye, all this is water below the bridge now. You should reconcile with your father. There shouldn’t be overnight issues between a father and his son. Just laugh over it and that will be that. Your father was saying just yesterday that he wanted to hand that whatever hotel platform over for you to manage. That would still be a better alternative than you hanging out with that actress day in and day out.”
Right when she was very focused on eavesdropping, Xu WanZhi suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind her.
Immediately after that came a weak male’s voice. “Xu WanZhi, I didn’t think you will have the guts to come over here… you have guts, don’t you?”
Xu WanZhi turned around and she saw Mu XiYuan who was still pale and weak from before.
“You think you can still sit there calmly even my bother knows about what had happened between the two of us?”
Xu WanZhi smiled and said, “What happened between the two of us? You were already all dried up before I was squeeze anything out of you. You are probably better off taking good care of your kidneys rather than trying to fight verbally with me right now.”
That hit Mu XiYuan where it hurt. The smile in his eyes disappeared right away. “Xu WanZhi, what do you mean by that? Ever since you’ve took my hotel key, came into my room, and left without a word, I had been like this. Speak, what kind of poison had you slipped me?”
Having said that, he walked over to Xu WanZhi in his debilitated body and grabbed her on her arm. “Xu WanZhi. You can go to jail for something like that, don’t you know that?”
Xu WanZhi wasn’t worried about an invalid like him at all. With a swing of her arm, she knocked his hand off and said in a steady pace, “Mr. Mu, you shouldn’t get so angry with your weakened kidney. What’s with this drugs and jail time talk? Do you have any evidence? Have I fed you anything all night long? Slandering, too, carries jail time. If I were you, I’d change your lascivious lifestyle and drink more goji berries for my health. Trying to pin this on an innocent person is not going to help you in anyway.”
Mu XiYuan looked at her through gritted teeth and only wish that he could throw daggers with his eyes. A little while later, he started laughing all of a sudden. He laughed and backed up at the same time until he reached the couch and plopped down on it. Then, he fished out the cellphone from his shirt pocket and laughed. “Innocent? Oh, Xu WanZhi. You might be good with your words, but I do have some evidence, though not about the poison. But I happened to have this. I wonder if my brother will be enraged if he hears this.”
Having said that, he turned the volume of his cellphone up to maximum and played a recording. Coming from his cellphone was Xu WanZhi’s voice:
“Huanyu had gone bankrupt, but Mu ZhenYu still has a lot of assets under his name. Those included entertainment companies, restaurants, and some overseas assets mainly located in Italy. Not a lot of them, but just enough for him to support himself. If Second Young Master Mu wanted to defeat him completely and take all of them over, you are going to need my help.”
