The two middle-aged men had a good chat. Mu Linfeng and Lin Boxiong had military associations, so it was easy for them to hold a conversation.

Mu Yancheng was also around on that day.

Under his uncle's constant reminder, the young man put up a good performance before his prospective father-in-law. He was genteel, polite, and humble. Despite being in the presence of his well-reputed seniors, he was composed and confident, knowing just the right thing to say.

All in all, Lin Boxiong was quite satisfied with this young man.

Of course, he had heard about Mu Yazhe's recent relinquishment of his title, but he had not once brought it up with his contemporary throughout their conversation. He could guess that the latter was giving a helping hand to his young nephew with this marriage proposal.

Still, he could not help bemoaning Mu Yazhe at the thought of him. The middle-aged man had had a few meetings with that young man in the past. If that fella had been the one sitting next to his uncle that day, he would have accepted the marriage proposal without hesitation. The former head of the Mu household had left an indelible impression on him. That young, handsome man was exceptional and extremely capable in his eyes. Despite the heir's young age, he was able to stand tall in the world of commerce with his clean-cut tactics and sharp, business acumen. The Mu Group was brought anew to the top of the game under that chap's leadership.

If such an excellent man were to be tied to his precious daughter, he would be overjoyed for sure.

Alas, the young man had given up his inheritance for a commoner wife. Indeed, a hero could hardly escape the prison of love. While the middle-aged man lamented the Mus' loss with the chap's departure, he could not help admiring the young man's courage and determination from the bottom of his heart.

Compared to his cousin, Mu Yancheng paled to a great extent despite also being young and good-looking.

As such, Lin Boxiong did not agree to the proposal immediately and only suggested that the two families could arrange for the young ones to meet up for a meal and chit-chat after the festivity. If the couple was deemed compatible, then the families could go ahead with the wedding.

These two wily foxes had their ulterior agendas, actually.

For Mu Linfeng, he only wanted to grow his nephew's power through this marriage alliance. With the young man marrying Lin Xueya, he could rely on his wife's family to take a giant leap toward becoming the Mu empire's new leader.

What about Lin Boxiong?

This man's heart was shrouded with worries over his precious daughter. She was his dearest as well as the most heart-wrecking.

Perhaps the family had spoiled her since young by always giving in to her demands. Their doting love gradually turned into overindulgence.

Growing up in such an indulgent environment, the missy turned into a cocky, individualistic, and willful person.

He accepted her capriciousness; after all, he was to blame for spoiling her in the first place. His thought on this matter was this: A daughter would be married off eventually. What he could do was find a gentle and accepting husband for her, and by the time she had her children, she would learn to correct her bad behavior.

With this thinking in mind, he let her have her ways.

Alas, the young woman's behavior turned from bad to worse, which ended up giving him a rather tricky problem.

That missy had actually started to date a thespian!

The Lin family was known to be traditional and scholarly. All its members, male or female, placed heavy emphasis on customs and decorum.

What his daughter had done was considered outrageous and decadent.
