Chapter 368: Rent Doubled
Mu Guangping didn’t waste any more words, and he left the Mu Mansion with those from the Mu family who had chosen to side with him.
The remaining members of the Mu family were each dejected, and though they maintained their loyalty to the Mu family, the imminent downfall of the family was an indisputable fact, and their coming days would be incredibly tough.
Mu Qingsong approached Chen Fan and began, "You weren’t able to help the Mu family resolve this problem, and according to our bet, you should now kneel and bow in apology to everyone."
The people of the Mu family all looked towards Chen Fan, their hearts filled with pent-up frustration, and they were just looking for a place to vent; Chen Fan was their best outlet.
"That’s right, you lost, now hurry up and kneel to apologize to us!"
"Damn it, the Mu family’s situation is partly because of this guy; merely kneeling and bowing won’t quench our anger. Let him kneel and lick our shoes!"
...
Chen Fan, looking at the crowd, replied indifferently, "This matter isn’t over yet; there’s no need for you to assume the Mu family is definitely finished so soon."
Zhao Qingsong said coldly, "Things have come to this point, and we don’t see any chance for the Mu family to turn around. Just because you say it isn’t over, doesn’t mean we have to drag this out with you. Are you planning to keep dragging this on so that the bet is never fulfilled?"
After thinking for a moment, Chen Fan said, "If I’m not mistaken, this matter should be resolved by tomorrow. Give me one more day. If I still can’t turn around the Mu family’s crisis, then I’ll fulfill the bet, how about that?"
