Chapter 67 I Can't Guarantee It

"I asked him out first." Mu Tianen looked toward her parents. "So, daddy and mommy, don't blame Brother Yan."

Mu Tianen did not know that her words would cause Leng Yan trouble. He knew that the road ahead was darker, but it was also very sweet. After all, Mu Tianen herself said it.

The happiest person in the room was Wen Anqi. Her secretary was right. She was delighted. She could already imagine the scene of Mu Tianen and her son getting married.

She liked Mu Tianen very much. She was cute, considerate, and smart. It was completely her fantasy for her daughter. She had no daughter, but her daughter-in-law could also be her daughter. She would definitely treat her better than her own daughter.

Although her son was older than his girlfriend, he was handsome and looked young. He was rich and considerate as well.

Leng Ji was also in a good mood. He envied his old friend for having a cute daughter. He soon would have a cute daughter-in-law.

This made him smile.

He looked at Leng Yan so angrily as if his eyes were about to burst into flames. The veins on his forehead bulged. "Leng Yan, you need my daughter to ask you out. I won't let you go easily."

Mu Zongwen had lost his mind but was held back by his son.

Besides, the way Mu Tianheng and Mu Tianyu looked at Leng Yan became even more unfriendly.

Wen Jia did not expect her younger daughter to be so courageous. She always made her surprised. She even dared to ask a man out. However, when she saw her husband so angry, she said, "Zongwen, calm down."

Wen Anqi said immediately, "Zongwen, Ah Jia, you watched Leng Yan grow up. You all know his character. He is already twenty-five years old. Other than studying, he only focuses on business. He has never been in a relationship at all. There is no need to worry about him being fickle in love. He is absolutely like his father in this regard. His father only has this one virtue. Moreover, the members of the Leng Clan are all loyal to love. "

Leng Ji was suddenly shot by an invisible arrow, but he did not dare to refute his wife.

"Leng Ji and I will treat her like our own daughter. Aren't you the most assured when we are your in-laws? Moreover, we lived so close that Mu Tianen can go home and stay for half a year."

This was what Wen Jia worried about. She believed in her elder daughter. No one could beat her. She was worried about Mu Tianen. She was innocent. She was afraid that she would be bullied after she got married.

If she married Leng Yan, she would be the most assured. She would have no problem with her mother-in-law, and the two families lived so closely.

Wen Anqi had always been paying attention to Wen Jia's expression and they had been friends for so many years, so she understood her very well. However, she did not say anything and continued to persuade her. Mu Zongwen was obedient to his wife. She should persuade Wen Jia first.

"So Ah Jia should give Leng Yan a chance. You guys take your time to test him."

Of course, Wen Jia also knew that her thoughts had been seen through by Wen Anqi. However, she was very satisfied with Leng Yan. Not only was he good-looking, but he was also calm, wise, mature, and steady. He and her daughter were a good match. He was also loyal to love and had a successful career.

Although Wen Anqi's company would not be inherited by Leng Yan, he had given up on his own. He had his own career.

"Anqi, of course, I am satisfied with Leng Yan. However, it is still up to the children. Since they are in a relationship, let them interact with each other on their own. We will not participate."

As soon as Wen Jia said this, the people in the living room had two different moods. Mu Zongwen and his two children did not dare to voice their anger. Leng Yan and his father were happy and did not dare to show it too clearly.

"Everyone must be hungry. Why don't we eat first?" Wen Anqi said with a smile.

Everyone went to the dining room, but their appetite was not very good. Even Mu Tianen had a bad appetite because she saw his family was serious.

Fortunately, Wen Anqi and Wen Jia spoke from time to time so that it was not awkward.

"Anqi, how did you know?" Wen Jia asked,

Even Leng Yan was curious about how his mother knew about it.

"My secretary saw Leng Yan take Tianen to dinner. She was so sure that she would like to give up her year-end bonus if she was wrong. How can I not believe it?"

Wen Anqi was so happy to hear this news at work at noon that her happiness lasted for an hour. She then called her husband to prepare a big meal and called Mu Zongwen and his wife. After that, she thought about how to put in a good word for her son for an hour.

When Leng Yan heard this, he recalled that there seemed to be a woman who kept looking at them during lunch with Mu Tianen. He thought that she was looking at someone else. He did not expect that their relationship would be exposed like this. However, it was good.

After the Mu family left, Wen Anqi was still in high spirits. She was no longer elegant and calm as usual.

Leng Ji had forgotten when his wife had been so happy the last time. He thought about it carefully and realized that there was no such thing. Even if they were married, she had not been so happy when the two children were born.

Leng Ji was a little jealous and felt that he would be deprioritized by his daughter-in-law. However, he did not dare to show his dissatisfaction.

"Mom, I'll apologize to the Mu family tomorrow," Leng Yan said.

Wen Anqi restrained her smile and thought for a moment, "It's what you should do. You have to apologize solemnly. I will immediately go prepare the gifts and go to the treasure vault to take a look."

She disappeared in the blink of an eye, like a gust of wind.

Leng Ji looked at his son and praised, "Kid, you're good."

His good friend wouldn't be able to show off in the future. His daughter would be his daughter-in-law. He became happier. He even didn't mind being deprioritized. It would be better to have a cute granddaughter.

Leng Yan was not as happy as his father. Although Mu Tianen's family agreed, he knew her brother and sister were tough. It would be difficult for him to get along with them and persuade Mu Tianen's father, but he was willing to do it.

He could go to pick up Mu Tianen publicly. This was a good first step.

Feeling the phone vibrate, Leng Yan knew who sent the message without seeing it. Now was the first step of the hard battle.

In Mu family's living room, the atmosphere was not heavy, but everyone did not know what to say.

Finally, Mu Tianen stood up and bent down slightly. "Daddy, Mommy, Brother, Sister, I was wrong. Please forgive me."

However, she did not regret it. During this period, she was very happy. Unlike the happiness of being with her family, there was more sweetness. Although there were times when she would feel worried, it was a very wonderful feeling.

Wen Jia got up and went forward. She pulled Mu Tianen to her side and held her face in her hands. She looked at her lovingly and said gently, "You are silly. You don't have to apologize. Mommy only needs you to be fine and happy."

Mu Tianen heaved a sigh of relief. She knew that her parents doted on her and wouldn't bother with her for many things. However, she didn't want them to be angry with Leng Yan. "Then don't be angry with Brother Yan either. I pursued him. When I was overseas, Brother Yan and I would be very happy when we were together, even if we didn't do anything.

He treats me very well. He brings me to eat delicious food. He brings me gifts on a business trip." When Mu Tianen said this, she felt guilty. Only then did she realize that she had never given Brother Yan a gift.

Mu Zongwen was angrier. His face turned red. He gritted his teeth to hold it in. He turned his face away. He knew his daughter would be unhappy seeing him like this.

Mu Tianheng was also angry, but he managed his emotions well. His voice was still gentle."Tianen, we are not angry with Leng Yan. It is late. You should go and wash up."

"Really?" Mu Tianen looked back and forth at their faces. Other than her father's strange expression, the others looked as usual. She guessed that they should have something to talk about, so she said, "Alright, I'll go upstairs. Good night, everyone."

When Mu Tianen left, Mu Zongwen's anger exploded. It could be said that his face was ferocious. "Leng Yan is hateful. He is not allowed to come in the future."

"Calm down," Wen Jia patted him on the shoulder. "I think it's very good. Although they kept it from us, Leng Yan is the person I trust the most. I'm very relieved to let him take care of Tianen."

"How can I be at ease? He is up to no good. Tianen has just grown up and was groomed by him. How can I calm down? Tianen must have been coaxed." Mu Zongwen was so angry that he went dizzy, and his eyes were red.

Wen Jia asked the maid to pour him a cup of tea. "Alright, since this was Tianen's choice, then we should accept it. Didn't you say that Leng Yan was good in the past?"

Mu Zongwen seemed to have been persuaded by his wife. He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger which was as fierce as fire. "I will test Leng Yan in time."

Mu Zongwen got up and went upstairs. He was very angry and needed to wash his face to calm down.

Wen Jia hurriedly followed up to persuade him.

Mu Tianyu looked at her brother. The latter raised his eyebrows and sneered, "I'm going out for a while. You should rest first."

"Talk to him," Mu Tianyu nodded.

"I will." Mu Tianheng's handsome face was full of seriousness.

When he arrived at the appointed place, Mu Tianheng knew that Leng Yan must have been there waiting for him. He went in and saw that there were all kinds of wines on the three-meter-long table. Wine, beer, and liquor, to name a few.

Mu Tianheng loosened his tie, took off his coat, put it down, and sat down. "You are prepared."

Leng Yan picked up the whiskey closest to him. He poured himself a glass and drank it all in one gulp. After three consecutive glasses, he put down the bottle and wine glass. His expression did not change at all.

Looking into Mu Tianheng's angry eyes, he said, "Ah Heng, you know me well. I will be good to Tianen."

"Can you guarantee that?" Mu Tianheng questioned in a stern voice, his aura bursting forth. Although he knew it was difficult to compete with Leng Yan in terms of aura, this was his way of expressing his attitude.

"I can't guarantee it. Things are hard to predict. Who can guarantee anything?" Leng Yan's expression remained unchanged.

As soon as he said this, Mu Tianheng knew that it made sense, but he could not suppress his anger. He stood up and grabbed Leng Yan by the collar. His face fell, and for the first time in his life, he was murderous toward his good friend. "Leng Yan, you dare to say it again."

Although Mu Tianheng had practiced some basic skills, he was no match for Leng Yan, the latter had never wanted to resist.

"Ah Heng, I can only guarantee that Tianen won't be hurt when we are together. I will do my best to protect her, including sacrificing my life."

Mu Tianheng took a few deep breaths. He let go of Leng Yan and sat back down. He poured himself a glass of whiskey and downed it. Then, he poured another glass and held it in his hand. "Ah Yan, do you know how our family feels about Tianen?"
