Not only Qin Mu and Wen Runuan, but Qin Mingzhu’s expression was so exaggeratedly frightened that her eyeballs almost popped out.
"But I think the few of us can be friends, right? We are all about the same age, aren’t we?"
Young Master Yang suddenly became childish again.
Wen Runuan also felt that this man really had too much of a split personality.
Qin Mingzhu was standing next to him, so with a stretch of his arm, he wrapped it around her shoulders, scaring Qin Mingzhu into raising her hand to her chest, hunching her shoulders and looking at him with a pale face.
It seemed that this young master still knew too little about the affairs in Rongcheng.
However, if he knew so little, why did he go to her to commission a custom dress as soon as he came back?
She turned to look at the crowd around her, some of whom were looking at her, while others whispered among themselves. Qin Mu knew her reputation in Rongcheng had been set in everyone’s minds long ago, so she couldn’t be bothered, but as she looked at these so-called young ladies and masters, she realized she barely recognized a few.
Oh, she knew Qin Mingzhu and Jing Qing.
She had always known that the younger generation in the city was divided into factions, but this was the first time she felt it so deeply.
It was said that Young Master Yang’s family had officials in Beijing, so why come to associate with the Jing Family?
"I’ll go see what Miss Jing is up to. If my dad finds out I made her mad, he might clean up after me. Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, my dad is her grandfather’s student."
Young Master Yang said with a smile and went off to find Jing Qing, leaving Qin Mu and Wen Runuan looking at each other like fools.
Qin Mu initially thought it was because of Jing Feng?
After all, Jing Feng’s prospects on that path were limitless, with the old man paving the way for him. The prosecutor’s position was just a start; in the future, the head of the Jing Family would be Jing Feng, and all those connections would fall into Jing Feng’s hands — so the man’s father was a student of the Jing Family’s old master.
Qin Mu suddenly regretted not asking Mu Yichen sooner, as he might have known more, and she wouldn’t be so clueless now.
"Stunned, aren’t you? Hmph!"
Qin Mingzhu took a disdainful glance at Qin Mu and then proudly went to chat with other girls.
"Qin Mingzhu is also quite a character, huh? How much longer is she going to hop around ?"
Wen Runuan frowned and asked, feeling that this child needed a lesson looking at Qin Mingzhu’s domineering attitude.
"Her father has been in Beijing lately; she’s got even more to stir up. Just wait."
Qin Mu laughed softly and replied, feeling that Qin Mingzhu would get in trouble sooner or later.
Soon, many people surrounded Wen Runuan, asking for autographs, taking photos with her.
Qin Mu was about to leave when a girl grabbed her hand.
"Qin Mu, don’t you remember? We were at the same school during kindergarten. Back then, Mu Yi would always come to kindergarten to watch over you after school. He’s still managing you now, isn’t he?"
Qin Mu twitched her mouth, kindergarten...
She really couldn’t recall the events of kindergarten.
"Xiao Yan, what are you talking about? What do you mean Qin Mu is managed by Young Master Yichen? It’s clearly Qin Mu who manages Young Master Yichen, okay? Since her return, have you seen Young Master Yichen with any other woman?"
Everyone was linking arms, like close girlfriends.
"Exactly, but no offense, Qin Mu, before you came back, Young Master Yichen was such a dashing playboy, even more so than Young Master Yang here. Since your return, he dares not even touch another woman." Jia girl jested.
"Yeah, yeah, when he was with Jing Qing before, Jing Qing never had that much control over him." Yi girl also said.
Wen Runuan was originally taking photos with fans, but upon hearing this conversation, she instinctively looked at Qin Mu. Although Qin Mu’s expression was interesting, she didn’t seem angry.
"Ah, look at us, we’re really bad at talking."
"Sorry, I’m going to the restroom!"
Qin Mu didn’t want to chat with them, and after exchanging a look with the readily adaptable Wen Runuan, she turned and headed for the restroom.
And then on the way, she heard that conversation.
"Have you heard? Jing Qing went to the hospital to have an abortion while she was with Young Master Yichen."
"Who really had Young Master Yichen’s child? Now why is it Qin Mu carrying a child to find Young Master Yichen? Wasn’t the legitimate partner supposed to be Jing Qing? Is the Jing Family really okay with their daughter just casually sleeping with Young Master Yichen?"
Qin Mu stood at the corner, listening to the conversation of a few women who were smoking and drinking.
