Upon saying that, Mu Dabing added right away, "I know that the Cen family is in a financial crisis now, and I still remember that it was the Cen family that helped us when our Mu family was in a difficult situation back in those years. However, you can't expect us to return the kindness just because we're grateful for your help. That's not how a noble person would act!"
The Cen family was in a financial crisis? Since when was the Cen family in a financial crisis? So it turned out that the Mu family wanted to annul the engagement because of this?
Zhou Xiang narrowed her eyes.
Mu Dabing waved his hand to summon a servant who came with a tray covered with a piece of red cloth. "Mrs. Cen, my old brother Haifeng gave me 100,000 bucks when the Mu family was in a crisis back in those years. Now, our Mu family is returning it twofold."
Haifeng gave him 100,000 bucks back in those years. They returned 200,000 now, so it was already considered a repayment of sorts.
Mu Dabing had removed the red fabric covering the tray while he spoke. There were stacks of brand new Renminbi notes on the tray and also a jade pendant. The pendant was in the shape of a dragon.
Zhou Xiang used to look up to Mu Dabing. However, she now felt as if it was her first day being acquainted with the man. Had she not witnessed it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that the man before her was Mu Dabing!
So it turned out that time really could change a man. The Cen family did not insist on the union between the Mu and Cen families by marriage back in those years, but Mu Dabing himself promised it.
Now, he wanted to cut ties with the Cen family and proposed an annulment after hearing the rumors that the Cen family was in a financial crisis. Yet, he still assumed a strong sense of righteousness.
He made a promise, yet he went back on his own word. He was simply hypocritical!
Noticing that Zhou Xiang did not speak, Mu Dabing furrowed his brows. "What is the matter? Do you think that it's too little? That's 200,000 bucks! Mrs. Cen, a person whose heart is not content is like a snake which tries to swallow an elephant."
She thought that it was a small amount! That was a little shameless of her.
Zhou Xiang looked at Mu Dabing again and said, "Mu Dabing! You're an ungrateful man devoid of gratitude!"
Had it not been for the 100,000 bucks from 25 years ago, could the Mu family sustain until now?
The Mu family was actually humiliating them by giving them 200,000 bucks. What a joke!
"How much do you want then? Give me a number!" Mu Dabing gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes. "It's best for you not to be too thick-skinned when I'm showing you respect here, Zhou Xiang! There's a limit to my patience!"
Zhou Xiang took out another pendant from her pocket and smashed it ferociously on the ground. "Sure, since you insist on the annulment, I shall fulfill your wish then! The engagement between our two families has been called off! Our friendship has been broken off too! We shall be completely isolated from each other's lives! It's best that you do not regret this!"
Regret? Did Zhou Xiang really think that the Cen family was desirable?
Mu Yourong's gaze was tainted with mockery. "Auntie, please remember your actions today too. Never ever regret your choice and do something embarrassing later that goes against your words!"
