Jiang Zhiyuan looked at her disdainful eyes and instantly felt that the conversation couldn’t go on, so he turned to look at Jing Feng and Mu Yichen, only to find that Mu Yichen was also ignoring him and Jing Feng acted as if he hadn’t heard.
"Let me say something I probably shouldn’t, but I actually think Qin Mu is a girl with endless power, don’t underestimate her."
Zhao Huai thought of the few times he had met Qin Mu and couldn’t help but blurt out that statement.
"Is it your turn to speak now?"
Jing Qing turned her head to question him. Although her voice was not loud, the disdain and derogation were clear.
Zhao Huai lifted his eyes to look at her, then nodded: Yes, I’ll leave after I finish eating.
Mu Yichen then raised his eyes, looked at Zhao Huai then back at Jing Qing: If we’re talking about family background at this dinner table, I’m afraid my seat isn’t arranged properly either, Jing Feng, let’s swap places.
Jing Qing immediately turned her head to look at the man sitting next to her, then explained anxiously: I’m not looking down on him because of his background, I’m just angry that you’re all so protective of her, is that okay to say?
Mu Yichen didn’t say a word, just stood up: Let’s meet up less often in the future then!
After speaking, he prepared to leave.
"Let’s talk after dinner."
Jing Feng lifted his hand to hold his shoulder and didn’t let him leave, then looked at his little sister: Xiaoqing, if you’re in a bad mood, just say less and eat more.
This time Jing Qing didn’t argue, afraid that he might really run off.
Only after Qiao Yi left to go to the bathroom and came back, he switched to sitting on Jing Feng’s side, no longer sitting with Jing Qing.
After finishing the meal, Jing Feng pulled Mu Yichen to the bathroom, and the two men chatted while using the restroom.
"I still don’t know when my wedding with Xiaohao will be. It looks like we might really have a joint wedding."
"We cannot afford it! The Mu Family and the Jing Family are bound to end sooner or later."
They had played together since they were young, and never imagined there would be a day .
"So you’re saying, no more brotherhood?"
"Brotherhood is essential, as long as you’re on the side of morals and the law."
Jing Feng didn’t say anything more, and Mu Yichen was the first to turn around and leave.
Later, Jing Feng stood alone in the bathroom smoking. What could he say?
Because of his sister’s meddling, his wedding couldn’t be held as scheduled. Every time he got close to Xiaohao, to his shock, she would say she saw his sister’s shadow and use that lousy excuse to stop him from going further.
Subsequently, everyone caught the first cold of autumn. As soon as Director Mu arrived at the studio and opened the door, he smelled the scent of cold medicine and unconsciously thought he had entered the wrong place.
Xiaomei came forward with a cup of cold medicine: Director Mu.
Qin Mu was meeting with Liu Jingyuan and his fiancée in the reception area.
After Mu Yichen walked over, he took his hands out of his pockets and sat down next to Qin Mu.
"Liu, are you here to give my woman some money?"
Liu Jingyuan helplessly smiled, truly not seeing Qin Mu as someone who liked to be pestered incessantly.
Liu Jingyuan’s fiancée politely nodded at Mu Yichen without a verbal greeting, and Mu Yichen naturally didn’t care about such an irrelevant woman, just lowering his gaze to look at his own woman: How much money did he give you?
Qin Mu unconsciously wanted to shoo him away but worried about making him lose face, so she just mentioned it to him.
Mu Yichen looked fondly at her, possessively pulled her into his arms, and looked up at Liu Jingyuan again: I heard Liu is getting engaged soon, when the time comes, my wife and I will definitely come to celebrate.
"Of course, the wedding invitation will be sent to Director Mu’s office straight away."
Liu Jingyuan tried to smile in response.
After Liu Jingyuan and his fiancée left with the wedding dress, Qin Mu and Mu Yichen stood at the door watching. When Mu Yichen tried to hold her again, Qin Mu lifted her elbow and jabbed back: Jealousy jar!
Then she turned and walked inside.
He was the jealousy jar, hating all those men who had thoughts about his woman.
And Director Mu thought he was already being very polite. If it weren’t for Liu Jingyuan getting engaged, he would have had the heart to kill him now. Remembering the scandal between Liu Jingyuan and Qin Mu, recalling how Liu Jingyuan held Qin Mu’s hand at Jing Qing’s birthday party, he wished he could chop off those hands to feed them to dogs.
He really didn’t want her to be touched by any man...
Once Mu Yichen and she went upstairs, he saw a mannequin in her studio dressed in shiny black fabric.
"Are you doing the work yourself again?"
"Making a dress for Miss Wen, she will be attending the red carpet show with Jing Qing next month. As her designer, it’s my responsibility to ensure her appearance surpasses Jing Qing’s."
Qin Mu said as she walked over to the mannequin and gently touched the fabric, then turned to look at Mu Yichen: What do you think?
