Quite awkward

Chapter 147 Shares

That afternoon, Zhang Pei took Qi Yu to a teahouse to discuss business with a director.

After the meeting, the two met Mu Yanqing, who had been waiting there for a long time, on the first floor.

"Brother, are you here to pick up Qi Yu?" Zhang Pei asked with a smile.

Mu Yanqing nodded, glanced at Qi Yu who was sitting quietly beside him, and then said to Zhang Pei, "Ah Yu, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"No way, this is what I should do. I am also Qi Yu's brother!"

After a brief exchange of a few words, Zhang Pei said goodbye to the two and left first.

Afterwards, Mu Yanqing and Qi Yu walked out of the teahouse together and got into the same car, finally having the opportunity to talk alone.

Mu Yanqing sat in the driver's seat and tilted his head. He asked gently, "Ayu, tell me about the scam you suffered."

Qi Yu tightened her seatbelt, looking a little nervous. She looked at him and said, "Didn't Xiang Wei already tell you everything?"

“You are the person involved, and I want to hear what you have to say.”

"Oh well."

……

In the next ten minutes, Qi Yu told him the main process of how she was defrauded last year.

Mu Yanqing extracted a key word from her words.

"Chen An also knows about this?"

"Well...it was my second brother who helped me. He had a friend in Southeast Asia who assisted the police in apprehending Jiang Yuhuai. He then hired a lawyer for me to handle this fraud case."

Mu Yanqing found it difficult to accept, his expression turned cold and he fell into deep thought.

Although he had asked Mu Chenan to take good care of Qi Yu, he had never expected that these two people would conspire to hide such an important matter from him.

"Ayu, I could have helped you at that time, but why didn't you tell me?"

Qi Yu said frankly: "Brother, you were in the United States at the time, and my second brother was in Linjiang. Of course, I had no choice but to ask him for help. Besides, you are married, so there is no reason for me to always bother you. So don't blame me, okay? This matter is in the past."

Mu Yanqing asked himself, can this really be let go like this?

He felt unfair because he was not the one who stayed by Qi Yu's side when she encountered difficulties. This feeling of guilt repeatedly whipped his heart, making him feel that he had not been a good brother and could not even provide her with the most basic protection.

Although the matter was settled, he really wanted to make it up to her.

But at this moment, his mind was in a mess, and the first thought that came to his mind was to give her shares in the Mu Group.

"Ayu, I'm really upset after learning that you were deceived. I want you to have a little security in your future life, so please don't reject me again, okay?"

Qi Yu was a little confused and didn't know what he was talking about exactly.

"I want to transfer some of Mu's shares to you. Although it's not a lot, it will give you a way out if you encounter any setbacks in your life or career."

Qi Yu rejected his proposal with great helplessness.

"Brother, I won't take your shares no matter what you say. Can you please stop feeling like you owe me something? I can't rely on you forever."

Mu Yanqing paused for a moment and said softly, "You can do it. You are my sister. Of course you can rely on me for the rest of your life."

She took a deep breath and looked at him in surprise.

"Brother...we are not related."

Mu Yanqing skipped the topic, not wanting to talk about it any further. Instead, he said firmly, "There's no room for negotiation on the issue of shares. I should have thought of transferring some shares to you earlier, but it's not too late now."
