Chapter 719: 153: The person at the top of the heart_2

Before Fang Hongyu could speak, Mu Baicheng said, "Mom, I’ve been pretty busy lately."

The subtext was that he had no time for love and romance.

Mu Baicheng’s reaction was within Fang Hongyu’s expectations; after all, he liked her.

For her sake,

Mu Baicheng could remain single his whole life.

But Fang Hongyu did not want to see Mu Baicheng so tormented.

She hoped another woman could take her place.

With that thought, Fang Hongyu looked at Mu Baicheng and said with deep emotion, "Brother Baicheng, your wife has been gone for so many years now, and Xiaodong and Xiaoxiao have grown up; it’s time you thought about yourself."

Mu Baicheng’s mind shouldn’t always be focused on her.

This would never do.

After all, truly loving someone means wanting them to be happy.

Fang Hongyu wanted Mu Baicheng to be happy.

She couldn’t bear to watch Mu Baicheng end up lonely and old.

Mu Baicheng said, "Hongyu, thank you for your kindness, but I just returned to the country, and there are still many things unsettled. Besides, I have my own matters in mind, no need for you to worry about them."

The last sentence was spoken with a bit heavier tone.

"Chengcheng!" Old Lady Mu immediately scolded, "Hongyu is only looking out for you, don’t be ungrateful!"

Fang Hongyu wasn’t angry in the least, "It’s fine, Aunt Mu, we’re not strangers."

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Mu let out a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Fang Hongyu wasn’t the type to quibble over every detail.

After saying this, Fang Hongyu looked towards Mu Baicheng and spoke again, "Brother Baicheng, don’t you want to hear what kind of person the lady is?"

Old Lady Mu, unable to wait, said, "Hongyu, tell us about her."

Fang Hongyu continued, "The other party is the Third Miss Liu."

Third Miss Liu?

Old Lady Mu thought for a moment, then asked, "Are you talking about the Liu Family from Chaoyuan Technology Group?"

"Yes," Fang Hongyu nodded slightly, "Aunt Mu, you know about Chaoyuan Technology?"

Old Lady Mu smiled and said, "I do."

Although she hadn’t been back to the country in many years, she always kept up with domestic news and naturally knew Chaoyuan International was no simple matter.

After completing her sentence, Old Lady Mu continued, "What’s the situation with this Third Miss Liu?"

Fang Hongyu replied, "Third Miss Liu’s situation is similar to Brother Baicheng’s."

Both being widowed seemed quite fitting.

At least there was no need to worry about any lingering ties with former partners.

Old Lady Mu narrowed her eyes slightly, making up her mind, "How many children does she have?"

Fang Hongyu followed with, "Third Miss Liu hasn’t had any children over there."

No children!

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Mu felt even more positive about the prospect.

She could accept her daughter-in-law being remarried, but it would be somewhat harder to accept if the woman came with her children.

After all, the Mu Family wasn’t a small household.

If the other party came with children, how would the inheritance be divided?

As a grandmother, Old Lady Mu always had to plan for her own grandchildren’s future.

Learning that Third Miss Liu had no children, Old Lady Mu was very pleased.

Not only was Old Lady Mu somewhat satisfied, even Mu Xiaoxiao felt some relief.

Who would want to call someone with no blood relation their brother or sister?

Mu Xiaoxiao looked at Fang Hongyu, "Auntie Hongyu, what does she look like?"

Although Mu Baicheng was already over forty, he was still very attractive, and Mu Xiaoxiao didn’t want her father to marry an unattractive woman.

Hearing this, Fang Hongyu immediately took out her phone, "I have her picture here if you want to take a look."

Mu Xiaoxiao quickly moved next to Fang Hongyu, and even Old Lady Mu stood up to join.

Only Mu Baicheng appeared uninterested.

Though he was the protagonist of the matter, his demeanor was more like that of a bystander.

Upon seeing the person in the photo, Mu Xiaoxiao furrowed her brow imperceptibly.

Third Miss Liu looked quite ordinary.

She didn’t quite meet her aesthetic standards.

But Old Lady Mu, smiling, said, "I think this child looks quite fine. Hongyu, why don’t you arrange for Chengcheng to meet her as soon as possible?"

Fang Hongyu did not directly answer Old Lady Mu’s question but turned her head to look at Mu Baicheng.

Mu Baicheng then said, "Mom, I’m about to go on a business trip to City C soon, so I’m afraid I won’t have time to meet this Third Miss Liu."

It wasn’t that he didn’t have time; it was that he didn’t want to waste time on something so meaningless.

Old Lady Mu, slightly displeased, said, "Even if you have to go on a business trip, don’t you have time to even meet her?"

Mu Baicheng was already over forty; how many more years could he afford to waste?

He was no longer a young man in his twenties or thirties.

As a mother, Old Lady Mu was truly very worried.

Seeing the tension growing between mother and son, Fang Hongyu immediately spoke up to mediate, "Aunt Mu, since Brother Baicheng said he doesn’t have the time, let’s discuss the meeting another day! There’s plenty of time ahead."
