Chapter 540 Butler Old Hu's Persuasion
The entrance to Fengming Villa was heavily guarded.
Mo Tingye parked the car and got out with his son and Uncle An.
Mu Qianqian got out of the car with her eldest son and daughter.
"Who are you? This manor does not receive outsiders. Please leave immediately."
Xue Jiuye's capable assistant at the door had a serious expression on his face.
"We are members of the Mo family, here to pay our respects to Ninth Master. My wife, Mu Qianqian, has received his kindness, and we have come to express our gratitude. Please inform Ninth Master."
This was the first time Mo Tingye had spoken in such a humble tone.
After all, this is the home of the person who saved my wife's life.
The proud second young master of the Mo family, president of the Mo Group, was being so humble towards a subordinate for the first time.
"Saviors? The Mohists?"
"Yes, please inform Ninth Master."
"Okay, please wait a moment."
His subordinate turned and went into the villa.
Mountain Villa Tea House
Xue Qingshan sat at the tea table.
The butler brewed some tea and served a cup to the boss.
"Complete the transfer procedures for Fengming Mountain within three days."
Xue Qingshan gave instructions to the steward.
"Ninth Master, you and that child are not related at all, yet you're giving away the business you've built up over half your life? Why don't you reconsider?"
The housekeeper was feeling uneasy.
It's such a pity that Ninth Master has given away all the assets he has accumulated over the years to a child with whom he has no blood relation!
He tried to dissuade Ninth Master, hoping he would retract his decision.
"Yueyue is my godson. Is there a problem with me giving him this? Besides, I have more than just this one business."
"Ninth Master, if you really feel sorry for that child and like him, you can give him something else!"
Why are you talking so much today?
Xue Qingshan glared at him, his expression very impatient.
"Ninth Master, I feel sorry for you. All the wealth and fortune you've built up over half your life is gone just like that..."
"Old Hu, you know I've spent half my life living on the edge, without a wife, children, or grandchildren. No one will inherit anything I have. Now I don't want to continue living like this. I want to give that poor child someone to rely on. Is that not allowed?"
"That's true, Ninth Master, but he has a father and mother, and he's from a wealthy family in Rongcheng and Shanghai. He's a young master from a powerful family with a large and prosperous family. He doesn't need your business."
“That’s because I like this child. He’s my godson, practically my son. Isn’t it only right that I give him my assets?”
“Ninth Master, aren’t you afraid that this child will forget your kindness when he grows up? Forget that you rescued him from his predicament? People’s hearts are unpredictable. Who knows if this child will remember your kindness or be good to you in the future?”
“I shouldn’t have interfered with any of your decisions, but I’ve been with you for so many years and I know what kind of life you’ve lived before. I feel sorry for you.”
After the butler, Old Hu, finished speaking, his eyes welled up with tears.
Ninth Master survived countless assassination attempts and murders, braving gunfire in the underworld. He endured immense suffering and faced countless life-or-death situations before finally achieving his current status at Fengming Mountain. Old Hu feels sorry for him.
“Old Hu, I sent Yueyue to Fengming Mountain not only because I feel sorry for him and like him, but also because I have other considerations.”
"You mean, you want him to grow up and take over your position?"
"No, I want to use the He family and Yueyue to leave this life of living on the edge. I want to return to the life of an ordinary person. Yueyue is my support for my retirement."
"Aren't you afraid he'll treat you badly in the future?"
"If you want to change your career path and leave the dark world, there are many ways to do so!"
“You don’t need to say anything more. This is a decision I made after careful consideration. Besides, I really like Yueyue and I feel sorry for what he has gone through. I’m not afraid of what he does to me in the future. I believe that Yueyue and the He family are not people who would betray their promises.”
"Alas! Ninth Master..."
Butler Lao Hu sighed helplessly.
Ninth Master is a kind and righteous man, but I wonder if the child he rescued from the beatings of human traffickers will be ungrateful.
"Master, there is a couple at the entrance of the manor who claim to be from the Mo family and Mu Qianqian. They say they have come to repay your kindness."
His trusted subordinates hurriedly entered the tea room.
"What? Mo Tingye? Mu Qianqian?"
A knowing look appeared in Xue Qingshan's eyes.
It's likely that Director Jin from the Supreme Criminal Investigation Bureau told them about how he saved Mu Qianqian in the past.
He had investigated Jin Anmu and knew that he had a close relationship with Mu Qianqian and was Mu Qianqian's cousin.
It was within his expectations that the Mo family and Mu Qianqian would come to him to repay their kindness.
"Please."
Xue Qingshan gave instructions to his trusted aides.
"Okay, Master."
His trusted subordinate turned and left the tea room.
"Ninth Master, is this the woman you saved in Rongcheng a few years ago?"
Old Hu asked.
"Yes, it's her. I felt sorry for her when she was with He Yizhou. I saved her several times because of her kind and good character."
"You saved her, not because of Mr. He? Not to repay a debt of gratitude?"
"Of course not. I will naturally repay the old man's life-saving grace through his descendants. I saved Mu Qianqian purely because I admire this woman's strength, excellence, and kind heart."
"Oh, so you insist on giving Fengming Mountain to that child He Yue, is it to repay the kindness of Old Master He?"
"That's part of the reason, but not the whole reason."
"It seems that you really love He Yue, Ninth Master, so I won't try to persuade you otherwise."
"Old Hu, give the order: from now on, when you see He Yue, treat him as if you were me. He is the young master. If anyone disrespects him, punish them according to family law. If anyone dares to harm him, deal with the He family and kill them without mercy."
A sinister look appeared on Xue Qingshan's face.
"Yes, Ninth Master, I will give the order right away."
The butler turned and left the tea room.
Mo Tingye had just entered the mountain resort with his wife and children when his phone rang with a message notification.
Mo Tingye opened the message.
“Second brother, your sister-in-law said that repaying a debt of gratitude doesn’t necessarily mean giving shares or money. You can help Master Xue get out of the underworld and clean up his act. I think that’s what he’d be willing to do.”
It was sent by Mo Tingfeng.
After reading the message, Mo Tingye handed the phone to his wife.
Mu Qianqian's eyes lit up after reading the message.
Sister-in-law's suggestion is excellent!
By doing this, they not only repaid the debt of gratitude but also freed their benefactor from that dark world.
"Okay, thank you for your suggestions, brother and sister-in-law. We'll follow your advice when we meet Ninth Master. As for what Ninth Master thinks, that's up to him."
Mu Qianqian used her husband's phone to reply to her older brother, Mo Tingfeng, with a message.
"Second brother, this is the best way to repay your kindness. It also allows you to have an open and aboveboard relationship with Ninth Master, and the group's interests, reputation, and stock price will not be affected."
Mo Tingfeng posted another message.
"Okay, thank you for your concern, brother and sister-in-law. Qianqian and I will handle it accordingly."
Mo Tingye took the phone and replied to his older brother.
