Chapter 29 -28 The Look in the Eyes of the Daughter-in-law_1
The courtyard.
This place resembles a retro town, but it is strict and orderly everywhere, with a solemn atmosphere.
As the car passes slowly, taking in the sights one by one, Mu Lin sensed that the place is really not bad and is, at least, more comfortable than the metropolis.
Indeed, it is a great place to cultivate one’s mind and body; rich in spiritual energy. Although it doesn’t compare to her own home, it is definitely the most suitable place to retire in the city.
So that guy named Jing Chen came from here? No wonder he seemed so stiff and rigid.
The car stopped in front of a retro Chinese-style building. The moment we stopped, a person who looked like a butler greeted us.
“Dr. Mei, you’re here, the old master has been waiting for you inside.” The man greeted Mei Qingyuan with a respectful nod and a steady stride, which is characteristic of a martial artist.
Song Qi, the old master Jing’s confidant, has been with Master Jing for decades, from the battlefield to modern society. He is the person Jing the old master trusts the most and is now managing the affairs of the Jing family.
Mu Lin stared in contemplation at Song Qi.
I wonder how many people in this large courtyard are martial artists, and how good their skills might be.
“Yes, I brought Miss Mu to visit Master Jing.” Responding to Song Qi, Mei Qingyuan nodded his head.
“Please, this way.” The sharp gaze that was studying Mu Lin glossed over her and then settled back into calmness.
Last night, Dr. Mei had already called the old master, he had also informed him, which is why he appeared here now.
However, Song Qi couldn’t tell if Mu Lin could really remedy the old master’s chronic injury; it’s not that he didn’t trust Dr. Mei, but if even Mei couldn’t do it, how could Mu Lin who looked very young accomplish it?
But, she does seem to have a good temperament.
Song Qi had fought through blood and fire on the battlefield, the kind of real battlefield! His aura has long been different from ordinary people. The look he gave her just now was unreserved, and yet this young girl, who just entered society and is very young, seemed entirely unaffected and even dare to meet his eyes.
Those eyes were calm and composed.
It was a look he had only seen in their young master, among the many young masters in the family, only the oldest dare to meet his eyes with such a gaze, calm yet indifferent.
Bearing this in mind, Song Qi felt that he was willing to believe her for now.
This girl is not simple.
In the Jing family, and even in the vast A City, Jing Chen the Eldest Young Master is undoubtedly a figure that people dare not offend.
…
Jing Family’s living room.
It was just as Mu Lin had imagined, the old Chinese style was grand, restrained, strict and solemn.
Truly befitting for an aristocratic family.
“Old buddy, how’s your health recently? Do you feel any better?” Stepping up to the old master of the Jing family, Mei Qingyuan asked with a faint smile.
From their way of addressing each other, it was evident that their relationship was quite good.
“Still the same old, no changes.” The old master of the Jing family laughed it off casually, his gaze lightly resting on Mu Lin who was standing behind Mei Qingyuan, nodding silently in his heart.
She held her ground, which pressed all the right buttons for him.
“Let me introduce you, this is Mu Lin from our hospital, the gem that old Zhou pulled out all stops to bring back.” Mei didn’t hold back the praise while introducing Mu Lin.
Why not? Isn’t such a young girl with superior medical skills worthy of being a treasure?
“Master Jing.” Mu Lin greeted with a faint smile.
In the old master sitting in front of her, she saw a hint of Jing Chen. In his younger days, the old master must have been a handsome man, and even now, he was still a handsome old man.
I wonder how the few people present would react if they knew what Mu Lin was thinking right now.
The old master Jing looked at Mu Lin with a kind smile, “Dr. Mu, right? Don’t stand, have a seat.”
“Master Jing can just call me Mu Lin.” This statement was not about making a connection with him, but Mu Lin felt that calling each other by their names would be more convenient, especially considering their respective seniority.
“Alright, Miss Mu.” Old Master Jing greeted with a faint smile, causing a twitch at the corner of Mu Lin’s mouth.
Great, another one taking liberties.
Once Mu Lin settled down.
“Miss Mu, Dr. Mei tells me that you saved my grandson Jing Chen before. I would like to thank you first for that.” Mei Qingyuan had mentioned this matter during their phone call. The old master of the Jing family also confirmed that Mu Lin treated the injuries Jing Chen got the last time he was on a mission.
“Actually, there’s no need to be so polite.” Mu Lin said lightly, “They saved my Qiaozi, I just returned the favor. No one owes anyone anything.” They had made that clear at the time.
The old master of the Jing family chuckled and didn’t say anything more; while others would probably try to establish a connection, this girl seemed indifferent.
The girl in front of him is indeed not an easy one to approach.
“She is just like this, old buddy you mustn’t take it personally.” He had always known that Mu Lin was indifferent and probably found it difficult to get along with people.
“Don’t worry, I wouldn’t mind, in fact, I like her temperament.” Looking at the gentle girl who, in essence, felt like his grandson, she seemed warm and calm on the surface, but she was cold at heart; whereas Jing Chen was chilly through and through.
The old master of the Jing family didn’t know why his kid turned out to be such an aloof figure.
However.
Having heard Mein Qingyuan describe the interaction between these two young kids, he was curious and excited, wanting to see for himself someday.
Ever since the moment Mein Qingyuan talked about the incident he witnessed, up until now when he met Mu Lin, he was watching her as if she would become his future granddaughter-in-law all along.
And the more he looked at her, the more pleased and agreeable he found her.
Perhaps, finally, someone could take over in the future for his twenty-eight-year-old grandson who has remained a bachelor. With this, a huge burden on his heart will finally be relieved.
All three grandsons were not easy to handle.
Even though things are not yet set in stone, the old master Jing appeared visibly relaxed.
Observing this inexplicable reaction, Mu Lin laughed lightly, confused as she was unable to understand what was happening.
