Male, the grandfather of Mu Yihan. He suppresses his anger when learning about his grandson's intended marriage to an ordinary worker's family daughter. He evaluates the match with a dismissive 'Heh.' He informs Mu Yihan that the Chen family has returned and that the Mu family needs a powerful ally. He pressures his grandson to marry the Wang family's daughter instead, as the Wang family is key to saving the Mu family from collapse. He describes the Mu family's weak foundation and how they are surrounded on all sides by enemies, particularly the Chen family.
