Chapter 630: Chapter 418: An Acquaintance? (First Update)_1

Tang Family.

Even though it was not the weekend, Tang Jun had been restless the night before, filled with unease and longing, due to Mu Lin’s intention to wake his mother today.

"Miss Mu." This time, not only the Tang family’s butler greeted her, but Tang Qishan and Tang Jun could not wait inside. They confirmed when Mu Lin would arrive and started waiting for her arrival early outside.

Mu Lin had mentioned the day before that she would arrive early, and gave them a rough estimate of the time. Tang Qishan had nearly lost a night’s sleep over it.

Gu Muqing cast a glance at Tang Qishan. She remembered many people seeing Tang Qishan as low-key, generous, and wise. But she found the Tang Qishan in front of her quite different, just like any ordinary person.

Seeing Mu Lin and Tang Qishan standing together gave the patient’s family and the doctor an inexplicably strange feeling.

It felt as though some roles had been reversed.

"Uncle Tang." Mu Lin got out of the car, lightly nodded towards Tang Qishan, and the corners of her mouth subtly curved up.

Tang Qishan beamed at Mu Lin, just as he was about to welcome her inside, but he noticed Gu Muqing getting out from the other side of the car. He looked at her in surprise, "Who is this?" He recognized her face—it was the first time Mu Lin had brought someone along.

Tang Qishan couldn’t immediately identify Gu Muqing. Although she was over fifty, she took good care of herself and didn’t look her age—she seemed to be in her thirties at most.

He didn’t guess that Gu Muqing was Mu Lin’s mother because the rumored Poison Doctor resided in the deep mountains and always kept to herself. She definitely had an uncommon upbringing.

Gu Muqing stepped forward and nodded at Tang Qishan, "Hello, I am Linlin’s mother-in-law, Gu Muqing."

Mother-in-law.

This declaration astonished everyone.

Was it true?

Tang Jun stared at Mu Lin, dumbfounded, his jaw nearly dropping to the floor. Mu Lin seemed to be about his age, how could she be married so quickly? It was a pity! He wondered what her husband looked like and whether he was worthy of her.

That was what Tang Jun really wanted to know.

However, the fact that the rumored Poison Doctor was married was just unbelievable.

It was even harder for Tang Jun to believe than the idea of Mu Lin being the Poison Doctor.

Tang Qishan looked at Mu Lin and saw that she didn’t refute it, implying that the news should be true.

He found it somewhat unbelievable.

However! The name Gu Muqing? Tang Qishan frowned slightly in thought, and the next moment, it suddenly dawned on him. Wasn’t that the name of the Gu Family’s head? This person was the current person-in-charge of the Gu Family in B City. He remembered that her husband was a member of the Jing family in B City, he had some impression of that. Two or three decades ago, the heiress of the Gu family and a man from the Jing family had stirred up considerable controversy in B City, and this had been talked about broadly.

Back then, he himself had not yet left the Tang Family.

If she was Mu Lin’s mother-in-law, then was Mu Lin’s husband none other than the renowned shaker of B City—the famed Jing Ye? This information left Tang Qishan flustered. He needed a moment to process this.

No news about Jing Ye’s marriage had been received, had it? The Poison Doctor Mu Lin being the daughter-in-law of the Jing Family was astounding news, simply indescribable.

Beyond shock, there was just shock.

"Uncle Tang?" Mu Lin called out, puzzled as to why Tang Qishan was suddenly lost in thought. Gu Muqing could somewhat understand why Tang Qishan was surprised.

He must have recognized her.

Given her identity and the relation she had with the Jing Family and the Gu Family, this could indeed be an overwhelming shock for many people, making it hard to adjust for a while, which she could understand.

But, it was estimated that the clueless Mu Lin would not have realized that Tang Qishan was taken aback when Gu Muqing introduced herself as the mother-in-law and mentioned the relation with the Jing Family. Mu Lin, obviously, had already taken this for granted.

Hearing Mu Lin’s voice, Tang Qishan snapped back into reality, glanced apologetically at Gu Muqing, and stretched out his hand towards her. "Miss Gu, I apologize for my behavior. I am Tang Qishan." This was their first meeting, despite both of them being businessmen, they had never met before.

He never thought that their first meeting would be under such circumstances.

Gu Muqing shook her head with a smile and lightly shook hands with him before quickly letting go. "No problem, I’m due to leave today and wanted Linlin to spend more time with me. Knowing she was coming here, I shamelessly tagged along to see how she will save people. I hope you don’t mind, Chairman Tang."
