Chapter 813: I Only Want to Marry Her (3)
Mr. Mu seemed taken aback by his son’s decisiveness. He was stunned for two seconds and was about to speak when he heard Ms. Wang’s equally decisive voice: "I don’t agree."
Mr. Mu was only considering things from his son’s perspective. After all, the Sheng Family is a prominent family, and in such an unequal marriage from the start, no one can guarantee that problems won’t arise later.
And once problems do arise, Mu Ke will absolutely not be able to win against the Sheng Family.
As a father, he certainly doesn’t want his son to lose dignity in a marriage.
Moreover, given Mu Ke’s inherently aloof and proud nature, can he really adapt in such a wealthy family?
But since Mu Ke was determined to act on his own, he wouldn’t say anything further. As a father, he could provide advice and express his opinions, but he couldn’t make decisions on his son’s behalf.
He was about to relent and say it’s up to him when he heard his wife say this so sternly.
Ms. Wang is a professor by nature and has a bit of the spirit of teaching and educating people. Both men immediately looked at her.
"Miss Sheng is very good. Putting aside her family background, I have no dissatisfaction with her, but Mu Ke, she has been divorced. You might consider me old-fashioned, but I don’t want you to find a divorced woman. And with her family background, do you know what people will think of you in the future when it gets out?"
Mu Ke frowned tightly. Ms. Wang continued, "They’ll say you are greedy for wealth and are after her family background. Otherwise, why would someone like you, Mu Ke, why would our Mu Family accept a divorced woman? I won’t allow people to reproach our family. I don’t agree."
Mu Ke’s frown deepened, but his words were sharp: "I don’t care, I want to marry her."
"Mu Ke!"
Ms. Wang was somewhat angry, her chest rising and falling erratically: "You don’t care, but can’t you think about your father and me? There are so many good women in the world; why do you insist on her?"
"Because, I only love her."

Upstairs, Sheng Jiayu learned from Mu Xin that Mr. Mu was concerned about her status, which is why it seemed a bit strange.
Sheng Jiayu was a bit dazed. She had never thought that her status would become an obstacle in her relationship with Mu Ke.
"Sister Sheng, you don’t need to worry. My dad is actually quite reasonable. Besides, ever since my brother was young, whatever he wanted to do, it was useless for them to oppose. Originally, the family was against my brother studying medicine, but he went anyway. So don’t worry, just trust my brother."
Sheng Jiayu nodded. Although her status might be a bit intimidating, she felt it wasn’t enough to truly oppose her being with Mu Ke.
After all, while she had heard of people disapproving because the woman’s family was too poor, she had never heard of anyone adamantly opposing because the woman’s family was too rich.
Moreover, she also trusted Mu Ke, believing he would definitely handle things well.
However, when Sheng Jiayu came out of Mu Xin’s room, she saw Mu Ke stride up the stairs from downstairs, and upon seeing her, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his room.
Their luggage hadn’t been packed yet. Sheng Jiayu had only taken out the gifts she brought, and her suitcase remained mostly untouched. Mu Ke zipped up the suitcase in two or three moves, holding it in one hand and holding her with the other: "Come with me."
"Go? Go where?"
Mu Ke didn’t reply, but his expression was evidently extremely unpleasant.
The grip on her wrist was somewhat intense.
Mu Xin was startled by Mu Ke’s demeanor, and as they were about to go downstairs, the whole person reacted and followed them downstairs.
