The Little Devil Goes Live

"Tang Wei, is this the daughter you want to adopt?" Mu Jishan sat in the driver's seat, assessing Gu Qingqing.

He had heard that the wild daughter of the Ye family came from the countryside, behaved badly, and had a rebellious personality. But looking at her now, she seemed obedient and pretty. She didn't seem as bad as the rumors said. However, ...

With her biological parents still around, why would you adopt her? Moreover, you're all in the same city and social circle. Won't it be embarrassing to run into each other in the future?

He knew that Tang Wei had always dreamed of having a daughter, but he didn't expect her to choose this one.

Tang Wei looked at the young girl, feeling somewhat nervous. She took a deep breath and got out of the car.

Trying to appear kind and careful, she said, "Qingqing, I'm Tang Wei. Are you willing to come home with me?"

Gu Qingqing clutched the strap of her school bag, her fingers turning white. She didn't quite understand why a family would still want to adopt her.

"Do you want me?"

Although there was hardly any emotion on the girl's face, Tang Wei felt a sense of desolation in her eyes.

Like an abandoned kitten, so helpless and pitiful. It could only stretch out its sharp claws, bluffing, thinking it could protect itself, but in the end, it only hurt itself!

Tang Wei's eyes suddenly felt hot. "Yes!"

She would take responsibility for her life, just like a real mother to her child.

Family is not just about taking, it's about responsibility.

"Good."

So Tang Wei took the daughter she wanted like this, and all the speech she had prepared were in vain.

The director put Gu Qingqing's suitcase in the trunk, and Tang Wei opened the car door, supporting her as she got into the car.

At this moment, Ye Shengming also came over.

"Mr. Mu, why are you here?"

His gaze shifted to Tang Wei. He hadn't seen this woman before, but her outstanding temperament couldn't be underestimated. She even made Mu Jishan, the head of the first-class family in Han City, act as her driver. Ye Shengming was quite nervous.

Mu Jishan could see what he was thinking, so he said, "My eldest brother is in the mountains and can't come. I'm here to help my eldest sister-in-law pick up Gu Qingqing."

The pent-up frustration was alleviated by half.

The elder son of the Mu family was a farmer. Although he didn't hold power, Mu Jishan, who was the one in charge, respected his elder brother and his family very much.

Without Mu Jishan's support, they would be worthless, but even if it were to degenerate further, it would still be surnamed Mu!

The embarrassing thing now is that the Ye family's most shameful secret had been picked up by the Mu family. This meant that the Ye family's fig leaf would be lifted at any time in the future.

Ye Shengming had to consider this.

He turned to Gu Qingqing, who had just sat in the back seat, and said, "You will only bring shame to the Mu family if you go there! If you have any self-awareness, go back to the orphanage with the director!"

Then he looked at Tang Wei and said, "Mrs. Tang, Gu Qingqing is not as obedient as she looks on the surface. You should think twice!"

The director slammed the trunk shut and rolled his eyes to the sky. "Mr. Ye, you've cut ties with Miss Gu, so you have no right to speak to her like that!"

You probably don't know that if you really anger her, the Ye family could be destroyed with just a flick of her finger!

She's a national treasure-level little demon, not just for show!

Gu Qingqing looked at him coldly, and Ye Shengming's hair suddenly stood on end.

Just then, a soft hand held Gu Qingqing's small hand. The young girl turned her head and met Tang Wei's gentle eyes.

She gently rubbed the girl's hand to comfort her, and the cold aura dissipated. The director knew that he had truly entrusted her to the right person this time.

When Tang Wei turned to Ye Shengming, anger ignited in her eyes. "Mr. Ye, Qingqing is now my daughter. Please watch your words! Second Brother, let's go!"

Mu Jishan nodded at Ye Shengming, and the car sped away.

Ye Shengming's face was as ugly as it could be.

Damn! Ungrateful!

After sending Gu Qingqing away, the director reported the situation to his superior.

"Make sure all the documents are complete, and don't leave any flaws for anyone to exploit!"

Now, many forces are trying to dig out the little ancestor. Placing her in a prestigious family is actually very risky.

"Understood!" Replied the director.

Mu Jishan also felt that it wasn't worth falling out with the Ye family for the sake of an adopted daughter. That Ye Shengming was not a good person; he might not have much ability, but he was very good at causing trouble!

Sure enough, even before they reached home, a call came from the principal of No. 1 High School.

Mu Jishan glanced at Tang Wei sitting in the back seat and turned on the speakerphone.

"Mr. Mu, I heard that Mu Xueqing from your family ranked second in this month's exam. Don't worry, I just received a call from the Ye family. The student who ranked first, Gu Qingqing, cheated to get the top spot. She also got into fights and hurt her classmates. The school has decided to expel her!"

The Ye family was really good at finding excuses!

Mu Jishan couldn't be bothered with such tricks. He responded, "Qingqing has already been adopted by my elder brother's family."

"Oh, is that so?" The principal was clearly fishing for information.

"She's still young. What can she do if she doesn't study? Besides, the school shouldn't just believe one side of the story. I heard No. 1 High School needs a new teaching building. Well, I have three million here..."

Anything can be solved with money.

Mu Jishan solved the matter in front of Tang Wei.

"Second Brother, thank you," Tang Wei said with relief.

"It's nothing," Mu Jishan replied with a smile.

His gaze fell on the young girl. She was still looking at the military Humvees stationed on the roadside. He had just spent three million for her, yet she didn't even spare him a glance.

A country bumpkin who doesn't know manners!

Mu Jishan hummed in his mind as he looked away. Just then, Gu Qingqing suddenly turned her head and looked into the rearview mirror, meeting his gaze.

"Thank you," she said.

"No…No problem," he stuttered.

She was really unlikeable. If he didn't need something from her, he wouldn't bother getting involved in this mess!

The Mu family's old house was in the east of the city, while the main house was in the west. They practically crossed the entire city. The western part was mountainous, and they even encountered a group of military Humvees setting up checkpoints. The line of cars waiting for inspection stretched for several kilometers, and the round trip took quite some time.

When Mu Jishan returned to the old house, it was almost dark. As soon as he entered, he heard his wife, Han Xiangru, complaining.

"Why did you go to join in the fun when they were adopting a daughter? Even if it were to show support, couldn't you send someone else? Did you have to go yourself ?"

Mu Jishan hadn't driven for such a long time in a while, and he was exhausted, so he collapsed on the sofa.

"What do you know?"

"Right, I don't know! You might as well serve them for the rest of your life!"

Mu Jishan pretended not to hear. "Oh, by the way, I gave three million to Mu Xueqing to buy clothes the other day, remember? Transfer that three million to me first."

Han Xiangru immediately became alert. "What are you going to do?"

"Gu Qingqing's grades are too poor. She cheated in a recent exam, and the school has announced that she'll be expelled. Now that she's in the Mu family, we can't just watch her get kicked out of school, can we? It would be a disgrace to our family! So, I plan to donate a building to the school..."

Han Xiangru was so angry she couldn't cry. "Mu Jishan, I'm divorcing you!"

"If we divorce, where will you get the money to buy bags and wear designer clothes? Can your family still support you?"

Han Xiangru choked up and went upstairs, unable to cry.

Mu Jishan waved his hand. "Stop making a fuss. I'm short of money lately, so transfer that three million to me."

After about ten minutes, the screen lit up, showing an unfamiliar number.

Mu Jishan immediately sat up straight, suppressing the pounding in his chest. "Hello, who's this?"

"Is this Mr. Mu Jishan? I am Cao Jin, the person in charge of the Shallow Bay project. There were some discrepancies in the documents your company provided last time, which led to your company being brushed off. I sincerely apologize for this. If your company is still interested, please come over tomorrow, and we can review the documents in person..."
