Wen Yu frowned slightly. After a while, she slowly relaxed.
“I’ll ask your father to go and investigate that woman. Don’t worry too much. She’s merely Suyi’s adopted daughter. She would never be her daughter-in-law.”
“Really?” Qin Fei’er seemed all hopeful now.
“Fei’er, I’ve been someone else’s daughter-in-law before. A woman always labels her daughter-in-law as her enemy. I treated your grandmother nicely but she was always dissatisfied with me.” Wen Yu laughed coldly. “If I had a son, I would hate the idea of a woman taking him away from me, too. So, it’s normal that Suyi dislikes you. She likes that young girl and it proves that she has no relation with Nan Xian.”
Qin Fei’er was still nervous. She pursed her lips tightly. She looked pale.
“Moreover, it doesn’t signify anything even if that young girl is close with the manor master now. It just means that Gu Yiyi never had any friend and now she adores that young girl because that young girl is willing to fawn on her. She’s nothing when Gu Yiyi dislikes her in the future. Do you think that Mu Ling would like a daughter-in-law like her? She’s not even qualified to be a concubine.”
In fact, there were a lot of people who fawned on Gu Yiyi because of her status and identity. But, she had never had any friends because of her bad temper and her habit of hating every beautiful girl.
Naturally, Gu Yiyi liked Feng Ruqing because Feng Ruqing was the only one who did not leave her despite her bad temper.
When Gu Yiyi had more friends in the future, Feng Ruqing would surely become useless to her. She would cease being Feng Ruqing’s friend and the Mu family would never accept her.
Qin Fei’er slowly sighed in relief.
She was never worried about Nan Xian because she thought that Nan Xian was the kind of man who would fall for beauty only. He would reject any woman who was stained and unvirtuous.
What worried her was the fact that Suyi adored Feng Ruqing. She was worried that Suyi would force Nan Xian to marry Feng Ruqing given that she was his mother.
Nan Xian might not be able to reject his mother’s request.
“Mother, let’s go home.”
Qin Fei’er’s facial expression worsened when she saw the sympathetic looks the crowd threw at her.
She was clearly the one being bullied here. They sympathized with her.
But, all she felt was humiliation.
She had always been crowned a beauty in Tian Shen Manor. Now, she was forced to kneel down and kowtow to somebody else for forgiveness. It was an unforgettable humiliation for her.

In the living room of the Mu family.
Hai Rong touched his mustache and smiled. “Mu Ling, I’ve been here for quite some time now. I need to leave and think of another way to cure the old master’s illness. But, Qian Kun mentioned that he’s going to introduce me to a talented young girl. I’ll leave when I get to know her.”
He was unwilling to stay there any longer. Moreover, he wanted to return to the mountain so that he could calm his mind and think of the old master’s illness.
He came to the Mu family back then for the sake of identifying the old master’s illness. He did not intend to stay for long.
Mu Ling relaxed but he did not show any emotion to him.
“Thank you for your help these days. It’s his birthday soon. Grandmaster Hai Rong, aren’t you going to stay?”
Hai Rong shook his head. “That young girl has not returned. There is no point in me staying.”
He was talking about Suyi.
Mu Ling was completely relaxed.
He did not want Hai Rong to stay for too long. If Suyi returned to the Mu family and met Hai Rong, the lie he and Qingyan had made up before would be revealed.
