Yue Shan shook her head repeatedly and said, “Just like how you like Mu Ning, who is not related by blood, I like Yinyin from the bottom of my heart.
Although she’s an outsider, I can’t help that she’s so loveable, so I have to go.”
Huo Ge laughed at his Grandma’s sarcastic words. Her meaning was obvious. No matter how much Mu Ning was doted on, she was just an outsider who was not related to the Mu family by blood.
Huo Ge looked at Mu Ning pitifully. Out of all the people she could mess with, she chose to mess with his grandma. Now she’s embarrassed.
Huo Ge’s guess was right. The tips of Mu Nings ears were red with anger from the whispers of the people around her.
Yue Shan ignored Mu Ning. She had come to the banquet organized by the Mu Family’s old residence and she had shown Mu Kun respect. That was enough.
She would not care about the little girl, Mu Ning, especially someone who did not know her place and thought highly of herself.
She had always been a good judge of character. This Mu Ning was not simple-minded. She was greedy.
With that. Vile Shan said goodbye to Sun Vilp and left with Hilo Ge and Hilo
Bing.
Sun Yun was also unhappy, but she still said some polite words.
The people around Mu Ning looked at each other. They had not forgotten that they had just said that Yue Shan, the fence sitter, knew that Mu Ning was doted on by the Mu family and wanted to curry favor with her.
Especially when everyone saw Yue Shan like this, they recalled Mu Ning saying that Yue Shan wanted to matchmake Mu Ning and Huo Ge. They were all suspicious. After all, Yue Shan’s attitude towards Mu Ning did not seem like she wanted Mu Ning to be her granddaughter-in-law.
How could Mu Ning not know what those people were thinking? However, today was her home ground. She could not hide and sulk because of this small interlude.
Mu Ning forcefully suppressed her resentment towards Yue Shan and smiled. “Everyone, don’t just stand there. There’s a lot of delicious food prepared for everyone at the banquet. You guys go and try it too.”
The people around them couldn’t wait to leave for a while. After all, they didn’t know what to say to comfort Mu Ning when they saw something so awkward. It’s not like they could tell Mu Ning, “Mu Ning, did you get it wrong? Grandma Yue doesn’t seem to want to matchmake you and Huo Ge. Are you thinking too much?”
That was definitely inappropriate, so as soon as Mu Ning spoke, everyone dispersed.
Seeing that there was no one beside Mu Ning, Sun Yun held Mu Ning’s hand and said, “Ah Ning, the Huo Family is not suitable for you. If your Grandma Yue mentions this again, I’ll help you reject it. You’re the precious daughter of the
Mu family. You can’t go to the Huo family and suffer such anger.”
Mu Ning was still angry, but her expression had returned to a calm expression. She smiled and said, “Grandma, I’m fine. Let’s not argue with others. Let’s have a happy birthday today.”
It was just the Huo Family. Didn’t many people from the other families still remain? In the end, she was more respected than Lin Yin.
However, before Mu Ning could start the next segment of the banquet, people started to say that they wanted to leave first.
Hou Yuan brought the Hou Family over and said with a smile, “Sun Yun, we’re about to leave first. I’m old and can’t adapt to such a lively occasion. But I’ll let Hou Ying stay here. There’s a lot for young people to talk about when they’re together. Let’s meet again when we have time, alright!”
Mu Ning was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She took the heir, Hou Min, away and left Hou Ying behind. He was from the second branch of the Hou family and did not have much ability. It seemed like the Hou family did not care about her at all.
Moreover, with the precedent of the Huo Family leaving, Mu Ning knew where Hou Yuan was taking him.
These people were really tactful. They first came to the old residence to show Mu Kun and his wife respect.
Then, they went to Mu Cheng and his wife to show them respect and not offend either of them.
However, no matter how angry Mu Ning was, she could not stop them from leaving. She could only smile and ask someone to send the Hou family out.
After the Hou Family left, the people behind went forward to bid farewell. Even Yue Ning, Wen Ying, and Gong Yue, who were standing on her side, were taken away by their families.
Only Lu Xiao and Lu Yue looked at each other and stood rooted to the ground in shock. They really did not expect these families to do such a thing.
Soon, more than half of the people in the lively banquet hall were gone.
The rest that remained were from small families that Mu Ning did not like. This really angered Mu Ning..
