At this moment, Mu Qianqian's gaze met his gaze without any fear.
"Young Master Rong, I might have had a fever a few days ago. Now, I can't even remember if I pushed Miss Ling on the stairs or not. As a half client, I'm begging Young Master Rong to take out the video."
"…"
"If I were to push it, I would be willing to bear the blame for Miss Ling, or I would kowtow in front of the crowd and apologize."
Mu Qianqian smiled without a trace of sarcasm. She did not lie just to humiliate herself. Her face was full of happiness, as if the main point she cared about was not whether she had been slandered or not.
She said that she was willing to bear the legal responsibility, which was that she refused to admit that she was someone of Rong Manor and rejected the punishment of Rong Manor's lynching. However, at the same time, she rejected Rong Heting's protection.
Many women wanted to establish a relationship with Rong Heting, and could not wait to enter the Rong Manor. However, Mu Qianqian refused, as if she had never cared about Rong Manor and Rong Heting's identity.
However, in her own name, she said that if she pushed Ling Jinghan away, she would kowtow in apology. In today's society, such an apology would be an extreme humiliation, but Mu Qianqian was going to kowtow in public!
Once she had done it, she would become the joke of the Empire, and it would be difficult for her to raise her head in high society.
Or perhaps, no outstanding man in the future would be able to accept such a demeaning woman as his wife!
Before Rong Heting could respond, the entire venue was in an uproar.
Ling Jinghan's gaze towards Mu Qianqian finally revealed a trace of malice. Right now, she was practically pushed to the heart of the struggle by Mu Qianqian and Ting Ye.
If she were to make another gesture of rejection, she would undoubtedly become someone with a guilty conscience. Could it be that she wants to lose to a childish, lowly girl like you?
Ling Jinghan saw that Rong Heting's gaze had completely moved away from her, and the words she stared at Mu Qianqian no longer had the gentle and calm tone from before.
"Mu Qianqian, at first, I didn't want to pursue those boring matters too much. Today was originally my birthday, and you often see Heting in Rong Manor. However, it's rare for me to have a chance to get along with Heting, but I don't know if my tolerance will make you act so brazenly."
Ling Jinghan's first words were to put herself on the weaker side. She wanted to gain more sympathy, but she had unknowingly slapped Ling Gui's face once again.
Did she seem bored? The elegant smile on Ling Gui's face had long since disappeared, and the way she looked at Ling Jinghan had also changed.
Ling Jinghan did not notice at all, "Since you insist on looking, then I have nothing to fear. I was just doing this for Heting's sake."
Ling Jinghan looked at Rong Heting helplessly as she finished her sentence.
"Heting, just take out the recording. Otherwise, we won't be able to live a peaceful night."
Rong Heting hadn't spoken a word since Ting Ye walked onto the stage. Seeing Mu Qianqian's change in attitude and how she and Ting Ye were standing there in a daze, it was indeed shocking to his eyes.
However, he quickly realized that the distance between them seemed to have widened.
Or rather, she used her attitude, this time completely isolating him from her heart.
From today onwards, Mu Qianqian had resisted all his orders, except when she showed her enthusiasm with a wonderful piano piece at the beginning.
If it was in the past, she would probably endure it for Mu Shen when he asked her to make tea for Ling Jinghan. However, she rejected him today.
If it was in the past, she probably wouldn't care if someone framed or slandered her. But today, before Ting Ye spoke, when she faced Ling Gui, she already showed her resistance.
Originally, it was a good thing for him to let his little thing awaken its original temperament and not endure it. However, Rong Heting always felt that something was completely out of his control.
That was because he was unable to guess what Lil Thing's true intention was. It was very bad. At the very least, at this moment, it was very bad.
It was as if a person who had seen through all the ways of the world was about to leave the mortal world. If he had chosen the wrong person or did not reach her final wish, would she be prepared to completely abandon him from the bottom of her heart?
Mu Qianqian's appearance today was already an accident, he definitely wouldn't allow another accident that he didn't want to see happen.
Rong Heting even felt that if he made a mistake today, his little thing would jump out of his palm, and it would be even more troublesome than moving her out from the Rong Manor.
Under everyone's gazes, Rong Heting first looked at Ting Lan gloomily. The dissatisfaction on his face successfully made Ting Lan lower her head, then she raised her hand and pinched the space between her eyebrows. Then, she looked at the two little guys who were waiting for her justice.
"You seem to have forgotten why I called someone to record the dinner, and why we are gathered here."
"…"
"You all have even forgotten that I am the owner of the Rong Family, and the master of the entire banquet is also me."
"…"
"I will only defend my woman. Anyone who wishes to escape my control will not have the right to seek justice from me, let alone ask me for it."
When Mu Qianqian heard Rong Heting's words, she instantly recalled what Rong Heting had said before.
He had asked for someone to take a video with his cell phone just to give Ling Jinghan a present. Today was Ling Jinghan's birthday.
Was he preparing to tell her and Ting Ye that he wouldn't expose Ling Jinghan's ugliness to protect her dignity? He was hinting that if they wanted to get out of his control, they would get nothing?
That "the reason why everyone gathered here" was to emphasize why she and Ting Ye were gathered here, right?
Mu Qianqian's fearless eyes were filled with disappointment. It was all because of her guess and the hint Rong Heting gave her.
It was the same every time, every time he threatened her.
Mu Qianqian held Ting Ye's hand tighter and tighter. The indifference towards Ling Jinghan turned into resentment towards Rong Heting.
Rong Heting looked at Mu Qianqian's emotional state which had been stirred up by his words. His face was dark. He was annoyed that his woman couldn't understand his words.
"Someone, capture all the footage from all angles to the time when the game is ready for dinner."
Mu Qianqian's eyes shone with disbelief due to Rong Heting's words, which made Rong Heting grind his teeth in anger.
"Put down the big screen and select the technical staff. I want to see who is scheming against my woman!"
Just when Mu Qianqian was disappointed that everything would go on as usual, Rong Heting's words made her, who had just lowered her head, suddenly raise it up again.
What was he talking about? Is this really Rong Heting?
