Jiu Ming smiled wickedly. “Can’t I visit you for no reason?”
“Hmm…” Feng Ruqing’s fingers stroked her chin as she smiled a little. “You are so busy. It’s impossible for you to come to me unless it is a serious matter.”
Her smile was beautiful and picturesque.
It was like a hand tickling the man’s heart.
“I do have something to tell you.” Jiu Ming looked at Feng Ruqing intensely. “Someone came to inquire about you recently.”
Feng Ruqing was startled. “The Mu family?”
“Yes.”
“The Mu family knows about my relationship with Nan Xian. It’s normal to inquire about me… it’s normal.”
“No.” Jiu Ming shook his head with a smile. “They asked about the person who provided us the herbal dishes in Paramount. Luckily, I have warned the fat girl that you have recruited for Paramount to not tell anyone about the herbal dishes. However, regarding your spirit beast’s capability in making herbal dishes, I fear that it will spread out sooner or later.”
Feng Ruqing had never said anything about the herbal dishes.
She had even concealed it deliberately in front of the maids in Fengyun Manor. She no longer took out the herbal dishes recklessly.
She only allowed two girls, Liu Li and Qing Ling, to use the herbal dishes.
The two girls had not been exposed to spirit herbs. Moreover, they were naive. She lied to them that it was just an ordinary herbal dish. The two girls were completely convinced.
But such deception could not be applied to others.
In the beginning, she had planned to use Paramount to earn Gu Yiyi’s money. However, Gu Yiyi was not as silly as Xiao Yin. So, Gu Yiyi must have guessed that she had something to do with the herbal dishes in Paramount.
“Oh, what about them? Just let them find me if they want to.” Feng Ruqing smiled, indifferently. “Besides, I believe that you won’t betray me.”
Jiu Ming smiled helplessly. “Paramount is destined to help you settle this mess. But girl, Paramount … will be yours in the future.”
“I don’t need it.”
Feng Ruqing shrugged as she did not have much interest in Paramount.
“I will manage Paramount for you. In the future, Paramount’s owner must be your people.” Jiu Ming’s tone was firm and could not be rejected.
Feng Ruqing’s face darkened.
Was this guy forcibly giving Paramount to her?
She could not even reject it?
“Jiu Ming, why did the people of Mu family seek me?” Feng Ruqing groaned for a moment and asked. “Is it because of the Mu family’s old master? Does he need treatment?”
In Liu Yun Kingdom, Suyi had no longer hide after her identity was revealed. She even mentioned the Mu family’s old master several times.
It was said that the old master was in poor health, so the Mu family had fallen into Mu Ling’s hands.
Originally, Feng Ruqing was ill-disposed toward the Mu family.
Until Suyi told her that the Mu family’s old master had always stood by her.
With this, she knew that not all the people in the so-called Mu family were wicked.
“No, they came to inquire about your gender.” Jiu Ming sneered.
“My gender?”
“Yes. The Mu family wants to know if you are a male or female.”
Feng Ruqing was silent. After a while, she said, “What is their purpose of knowing that?”
Jiu Ming smiled again after hearing her words. He strangely looked at Feng Ruqing.
“The Mu family’s Nan Xian’s marriage has been canceled again. The news has spread in the reclusive world.”
“…”
