Chapter 981: Chapter 981 – Marriage Alliance

Although Nan Zhi had been calm and confident in front of Helian Zhu, it did not mean that she was not angry at all.

Taking a deep breath, she did not hide her emotions in front of Mu Sihan and said with some displeasure, “Even though I believe you, I’m also very angry.”

Especially the photo of Helian Zhu holding him tightly from behind, her face against his back. Helian Zhu was wearing so little, she must not have been anything under the nightgown.

If she had not been holding down her emotions, she would have grabbed Helian Zhu’s hair and slapped her a few times upon seeing her.

He was such a chaste man. His first kiss and first time were with her. She would not allow other women to tarnish him, even if he had not done anything to Helian Zhu.

To be honest, she was jealous and furious at the same time. But she knew, that woman was Helian Zhu. She had a noble status and powerful background. If she really hit her, it would make things difficult for Mu Sihan.

Nan Zhi felt choked up, the grievance and powerlessness surging from her heart. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something when she heard Yi Fan calling Mu Sihan to the conference room at the other end of the line.

“Go do your work first!” Nan Zhi then hung up.

…

On Mu Sihan’s side.

Seeing that he was being hung up on, he frowned, his eyes dark.

Yi Fan looked at Mu Sihan’s dark expression and reminded him cautiously, “Young Master, the Queen and the Royal relatives are all here. The Queen’s brother, Duke De An, took several photos and instigated the rest of the relatives, wanting you to marry Helian Zhu. They’re in the conference room now and the Queen has asked you to go over.”

A cold smirk appeared on Mu Sihan’s lips.

Duke De An had been trying to please the Helian family in private. If he was able to let him agree to marry Helian Zhu this time, he would have rendered an outstanding service to the Queen and the Helian family.

Mu Sihan handed his phone to Yi Fan, turned and walked towards the conference room.

When Mu Sihan entered, the people in the conference room all looked over at him.

Mu Sihan wore a tailored black suit, looking tall and powerful with his strong aura. The outline of his cold face exuded out a countenance that kept people away.

The conference room was large and more than a dozen men in suits sat around the round conference table. The Queen sat at the front, next to the King’s seat.

The relatives in the conference room were roughly divided into two groups. One group was with the Queen, the other supported Mu Sihan.

There was an air of confrontation and the tension was thick in the air.

As Mu Sihan sat beside the Queen, he crossed one of his legs over the other elegantly. Then, he leaned against the black leather chair and his deep dark eyes swept around the people in the room, exuding a strong sense of pressure and coldness.

Raising a hand, he knocked on the conference table and his expensive cufflinks glittered under the bright lights.

“My time is precious. Duke De An, please get to the main point of this emergency meeting.”

Duke De An looked at Mu Sihan, who after ascending the throne, hardly seemed to put him in his eyes. Clearly displeased, he said, “Since the King wants me to get straight to the point, I won’t beat around the bush.” Duke De An gestured to his secretary behind and the secretary inserted the thumb drive into the computer.

The relatives’ expression changed when they saw the photos that appeared on the screen.

“Your Majesty, these are some photos I received today. I heard that the photos have been circulating within the Helian family. Now, the Helian family have demanded that you take responsibility given your role in the Royal family. Their Young Lady was bullied by the King and never asked properly for marriage. If this matter caused the Helian family to be unhappy, it will not do any good to our Royal family and the whole country!”

Several relatives nodded along after Duke De An finished speaking.

The Queen looked at Mu Sihan, whose expression was cold, and her expression was solemn. “King, as the leader of the country, you must have a sense of responsibility. Now that these kinds of photos are exposed, you must be responsible for Helian Zhu. I think all that’s left is for us to settle the time to fix your marriage with Helian Zhu!”

“You can’t say that. Where’s the dignity of the King if you want him to be responsible for Miss Helian based on a few photos? Besides, these few photos don’t show anything.”

“Do you mean that there’s something between them only when unsightly photos are taken? I’m sure the King knows clearly what happened after that.”

Mu Sihan raised his eyes and looked at Duke De An. “In that case, let’s video call Helian Zhu and contact her father as well. Since the discussion is about us, we should all have a video conference together to discuss the matters regarding me and her!”

Duke De An nodded. “We all know Miss Helian is really dignified and proper.”

Mu Sihan lifted her lips and laughed coldly. “Oh? Does the Duke know Miss Helian in private?”

Helian Xiao, who had not spoken, frowned at the insinuation and looked at Mu Sihan. “I still don’t know the ins and outs of this matter, but Zhuzhu is my daughter. I hope the King can say what you must and not humiliate my daughter in front of the relatives.”

Mu Sihan glanced at Helian Xiao. Helian Xiao did not seem to know about Helian Zhu using his phone to send Mu Sihan the message of him changing rooms.

But then, Helian Zhu was his daughter and it was understandable that he would defend her, even if he did not completely understand the situation.
