Chapter 596: Chapter 399: The Despised Jing Tian (Part 1) _2

"After all, look, our Xiaochen has given his employees time off, yet he remains busy with his duties in the military. He’s so dedicated! As a younger brother, shouldn’t I learn from him?"

Jing Tian, with a woe-is-me expression, begged, "Dear aunt, it’s all my fault. You are naturally beautiful and generous, please spare me, Xiao Tianzi." Was begging not enough that he threatened to rat him out?

However, he still wanted to retort about Jing Chen’s arrangements.

His wife ran over to our side, he couldn’t believe that he could calmly work there. He was definitely forced against his wishes. He didn’t know what trick the B City Military Area had used, that even his brother listened obediently. He remembered only a while ago, his brother would sneak out every few days to go after his wife.

Could it be because his wife was in the palm of his hand now, he felt relaxed?

After some thought, in the end, Jing Tian decided not to retort.

Why?

His aunt was definitely the type who would tattle on him. Perhaps... it was better to do less than do more, indeed.

Seeing him, Gu Muqing nodded in satisfaction, and then took Mu Lin’s hand and walked towards her target destination. Jing Tian stood behind, silently watching their receding figure, chuckling helplessly.

Tsk, tsk, tsk... he suddenly felt that perhaps he should worry about their future position in the Jing family.

This sister-in-law, as long as she calmly stood there, could probably win everyone’s love. Especially, considering she was their family’s savior.

Sigh... the future really was worrisome.

Jing Zhengyang’s office.

"Knock, knock, knock..." the sound of knocking echoed.

Gu Muqing didn’t know whether there was anyone inside or not, so even if her loved one was inside, she would always knock out of habit at work. This could be considered good manners.

"Come in." A deep voice sounded, revealing a magnetic vibe. Compared to Jing Chen’s voice, it had more maturity and stability.

Pushing the door open, she entered a simple office. A man was sitting behind his desk, writing something. His eyebrows carried a stern aura.

This face shared around sixty to seventy percent similarity with Jing Chen’s, but it felt completely different, especially his aura.

Jing Chen seemed cold and indifferent, but the man sitting not far from her radiated a masculine and righteous aura. He was the exemplification of righteousness.

Looking at Jing Zhengyang, Mu Lin was wondering whether in the future, her grandfather would also have such an aura; or rather, would his be even more intense?

Mu Lin had faith in Jing Chen.

Jing Zhengyang glanced up, seeing his wife approaching him. His lips curled into a smile. "You’re back." Even his prolonged voice carried a hint of laughter.

Gu Muqing nodded. Standing in front of Jing Zhengyang, she pulled Mu Lin in front of her, and gave her a little push forward, "Guess who I brought back?" Her eyes were filled with mirth. Mu Lin immediately felt a pair of probing eyes on her, emitting a tad pressure.

First he was surprised, then amazed. Jing Zhengyang set down his work and lightly closed the cover, "Dr. Mu!" Although they had only met once before, Jing Zhengyang still had a clear memory of Mu Lin.

She made a deep impression. The name Mu Lin was one that the old master often mentioned.

"Hello." Mu Lin gave him a slight nod.

She felt like she was meeting a superior instead of someone likely to be closely related to her in the future. She was a soldier, he was a general.

Mu Lin truly felt that way.

It wasn’t that he was haughty, but even though the man in front of her in military uniform hid his aura, he still had an influence that couldn’t be matched by ordinary people. Jing Chen was the same.

They were both perfect for the military uniform!

Seeing the awkwardness between the two, Gu Muqing felt somewhat helpless.

"Why are you calling her Dr. Mu?" Gu Muqing shot Jing Zhengyang a glance. "Did you forget what Chenchen told us? Just call her Linlin." ’Dr. Mu’ sounded like she was referring to a stranger.

Jing Zhengyang coughed dryly, well, he wasn’t used to it, shouldn’t he be given some time to adjust?

Apart from his wife, Jing Zhengyang was not someone used to interacting with women. Especially considering the girl in front of him was the one who would be their future daughter-in-law.

Men and women were not the same. Women, whether with their son’s wife or their daughter’s husband, could easily develop a close relationship through simple conversations. However, men were different. To be honest, Jing Zhengyang still preferred Mu Lin’s original position.

Even though he was a little curious about Mu Lin, and had thought of meeting her when he knew she was in C Province and taking care of her, but now face to face with her, he surprisingly felt a little uncomfortable.

However, he indeed admired his son for managing to win her over so quickly. His speed was phenomenal, just like his in his youth.

Hearing Gu Muqing’s words, Mu Lin smiled, "It’s just a title, you can call me anything." She was quite casual about it.

Actually, she felt more comfortable with Jing Zhengyang calling her this way. The awkwardness she felt in the beginning had completely disappeared.

Afterwards, Jing Zhengyang set down his work and led both of them to the nearby sofa to sit down.

This was the first time he observed the girl sitting before him so closely.

Indeed, she was extraordinary. No matter whether it was her character, abilities or other aspects, there was nothing that he could fault her for.

"Linlin, you don’t mind me calling you that, do you?"
