The second day of the exhibition was equally as successful as the first day. However, Song Ning was not present. She insisted on accompanying Jiang Jin at home. Once classes were over, she rushed home immediately to help Jiang Jin with her physical therapy.

When Mu Chen learned that Song Ning was not planning to attend the second day of the exhibition, he protested, “Yesterday, Grandma could show off her granddaughter-in-law. If you don’t show up today, who am I going to show off?”

Song Ning chuckled and tilted her head slightly as she said, “You can show Cheng Che off. He’s such a good brother.”

Cheng Che instantly straightened his back upon hearing these words. “That’s right. You can show me off to everyone. Look at my handsome appearance that can cause flowers to bloom and cars to screech to a halt!”

“Scram!” Mu Chen gritted his teeth as he tried to kick Cheng Che..

Cheng Che hurriedly hid behind Song Ning before he said, “Sister-in-law, I really can’t deal with my brother’s fiery temper. Since you’re like the fire extinguisher to his temper, why don’t you attend the exhibition? Let him show off for a while and then you can leave after that. Moreover, what if other girls try to cozy up to him?”

“Cheng Che! You really don’t want to live anymore!” Mu Chen roared.

Song Ning smiled and said, “Then, I have even more reason not to go. After all, I don’t want to be a hindrance to those girls.”

Mu Chen’s expression was rather funny to look at this moment.

Meanwhile, Jiang Jin watched the trio bicker, feeling happy.

In the end, Song Ning got what she wanted since Jiang Jin’s health was the most important. In fact, all three of them agreed to this. Mu Chen was only teasing Song Ning, after all.

In the car.

Cheng Che drove while Mu Chen sat in the passenger seat.

Mu Chen stretched his limbs before he asked lazily, “So how’s everything?”

Cheng Che chuckled. “Don’t worry. There won’t be any big problems. By the way, guess who extended an olive branch to the Fu family?”

Mu Chen cocked an eyebrow. “The Ning family?”

Cheng Che pursed his lips. “How could the Ning family be interested in the Fu family? The Fu family is below them.”

Mu Chen said, “Oh? Then who wants to join in the fun?”

Cheng Che looked at Mu Chen meaningfully as he said, “Ye Cheng.”

Mu Chen fell silent.

Cheng Che continued to say, “If Ye Cheng didn’t have so many lovers in the open and in the dark, I’d think he’s in love with you!”

Mu Chen glared at him. “How can you not disgust me?”

“Brother, think about it. You’ve known each other since you were both in kindergarten. Although you beat him up in primary school, he still followed you around like a tail. I feel so tired just looking at him. Tell me, what else can it be if it’s not love?” Cheng Che said with a sigh as he drove.

Mu Chen looked out of the car window as he tapped his fingers against the glass. He said indifferently, “He doesn’t love me. He only wants to surpass me.”

Cheng Che sighed and shook his head. “I think it’d be easier for him if he was in love with you compared to trying to surpass you.”

Mu Chen rolled his eyes. “Let’s get down to business. What has he done with the Fu family so far?”

Cheng Che’s expression grew serious as he said, “If he offers to finance the Fu family, don’t you think the Fu family would be even more desperate to look for little sister-in-law? With Ye Cheng’s character, even if the Fu family manages to get their hands on sister-in-law’s assets and obtain Ye Cheng’s financing, I’m afraid the Fu family’s bones would still be picked clean by Ye Cheng.”

Mu Chen shrugged noncommittally.

Cheng Che looked at Mu Chen. “Brother, what do you think?”

Mu Chen said, “Casting bait to catch the big fish… Isn’t this your usual method?”

Cheng Che grinned. “As long as you don’t dislike me for being too scheming.”

Mu Chen replied with a straight face, “Why would I dislike someone who helps me with all these troublesome matters?”

Cheng Che laughed heartily, leaning against the steering wheel slightly. “Brother, as long as you’re happy, no matter how tired I am, I’ll always help you. Don’t worry. Sister-in-law’s Zhuang Ji will be very successful.”

After a moment, Mu Chen stroked his chin and said, “When you’re hiring people, remember to be careful. Remind An Ran as well. After the exhibition, I have a feeling the Ning family will come knocking on our door. I’m not the slightest bit worried about the Fu family at all. It’s the Ning family I’m worried about because of her psychological response to them.”

Cheng Che nodded. “I understand, Brother. However, you have to look out for Ye Cheng. It’s strange that Ye Xin hasn’t made a move at all…”

Mu Chen did not say anything.

After a brief moment, Cheng Che said again, “That’s right. I forgot to tell you that someone is investigating sister-in-law.”

Mu Chen replied, “Is it that woman from the Ning family?”

Cheng Che shook his head. “I think it’s Chen Chen.”

Mu Chen raised an eyebrow.

Cheng Che said, “However, I didn’t take any further action since the background we found for sister-in-law is rather solid. They shouldn’t be able to find anything.”

“In fact, we can lead them to Jiangnan. I’ve spoken to Song Ning. Her grandparents’ house is still there,” Mu Chen said.

“However, I don’t quite understand why we’re doing all these things, Brother,” Cheng Che said.

Mu Chen replied honestly, “Song Ning doesn’t want to reveal her background. As long as it’s what she wants, we’ll help her to hide her background. At the same time, we can also see who else is trying to make things difficult for her.”

Cheng Che nodded. “Don’t worry. We’ll get rid of all of them before they can even cause trouble for sister-in-law.”

Mu Chen remained silent.

After a while, Cheng Che finally pulled up to Zhuang Ji. He parked the car behind the studio.

When Cheng Che alighted from the car, he stretched and said, “Since sister-in-law came home early today, we’ll be able to have good food tonight!”

Mu Chen’s expression softened at the mention of Song Ning. Just as he entered Zhuang Ji, an assistant hurried up to him and said, “President Mu, President Ning is here to see you.”
