A faint smile appeared on Hua Yunrong's face as he scanned his surroundings, forcing the gazes of the men that were secretly coveting back.
"He's always so reckless. In the end, he's still too young."
Hua Yunrong saw Mu Qianqian's anxiety in his eyes. His broad palm grabbed her head and buried Mu Qianqian's palm-sized face in his chest, no longer allowing others to peep at her.
"Aunt Gui is just teasing you. How important do you think you are? Aunt Gui, as an elder, naturally wouldn't have the leisure to meddle in the affairs of the juniors. Furthermore, this meddling matter belongs to Big Brother, who doesn't know that provoking Big Brother Mao will only result in losses. Qianqian, behave yourself, huh? "
Hua Yunrong's tone was full of pampering. Although he was comforting Mu Qianqian, his gaze was still fixed on Ling Gui who was standing opposite of him.
The smile on his face was always faint, and he appeared to be carefree and frivolous, but everyone could understand the hidden threat in his words.
The people who recognized Mu Qianqian before saw Hua Yunrong and confirmed that they were not mistaken. The woman in red was the one who Young Master Hua had brought to the feast earlier.
The people who were secretly watching were also surprised. They all began to guess whether this gorgeous woman was Young Master Rong's or Young Master Hua's.
It couldn't be that the two brothers were playing with the same woman as what had been said at the banquet, right?
This thought only stayed for a moment before it was rejected by the crowd.
Young Master Hua loved to play, but he would never go beyond the norm. And Young Master Di and Rong Heting absolutely disdained to touch the same woman as others.
All these years, how many people would dare to send a girl to Young Master Rong's bed if they did everything they could think of? Furthermore, Young Master Rong was slightly obsessed with cleanliness. No matter who sent the woman that served Young Master Rong, there would be experts personally checking her out. It was impossible for her to fake it even if she wanted to.
Therefore, no matter how many girls in the circle thought about Rong Heting, no one dared to go up and seduce him. After all, virgins in this age were very rare.
While the several young masters were speculating in secret, Ling Gui noticed that Hua Yunrong and Mu Qianqian's current postures were a little playful. She was stunned for a moment with her gentle eyes, but she quickly recovered her smile.
However, Ling Gui's gaze seemed to have a hint of scrutiny, and she had no choice but to adjust her plan.
Ling Gui had already collected Mu Qianqian's information before she came here. She didn't find it difficult to deal with such a girl who didn't care about the world. She even mocked Ling Jinghan, who had raised her, on the phone.
She had also thought that Rong Heting might be worried that she would interfere with her plan and hide Mu Qianqian from the prying eyes of others. However, that girl came out today to fight for Rong Heting's favor, which might have messed up all of Rong Heting's previous plans.
Of course, everything was just her suspicion, because at this moment, she didn't feel like Rong Heting was someone who was controlled by a woman.
But now, why was Hua Yunrong defending Mu Qianqian like this?
If it was just to mess with her, the pity in Hua Yunrong's eyes didn't seem fake. And Rong Heting couldn't push his woman to another man, even if that man was his younger brother.
Ling Gui quickly went through everything she had investigated in her mind. All her plans were overturned at this moment, and the faint smile on her face gradually intensified. In the end, a peaceful expression appeared on her face.
"Yunrong knows me. It was indeed just a joke. I was overthinking it. The world of you youngsters, I'm really getting more and more confused."
Ling Gui did not treat Hua Yunrong as she treated Rong Heting, but instead affectionately called Hua Yunrong's name.
Even though Mu Qianqian didn't look at the fake face of the woman behind her, she could still hear the change in Aunt Gui's attitude towards Rong Heting and Hua Yunrong. Mu Qianqian couldn't help but mock him in her heart.
Did she really not understand that all these so-called upper class people had mental illnesses?
Rong Heting was clearly a junior of the woman in front of them, but because of her status and position, she had to be honored. Rong Heting was obviously a junior of the woman in front of her, but because of her status and position, she had to be honored.
This actually wasn't enough. After she had been humiliated, they were still jealous enough to go and touch her family and vent their anger. Killing her uncle wasn't enough, and now they still had to take note of her brother.
Just how bad was her luck that she managed to provoke these people with perverted thoughts!
Mu Qianqian felt that it was laughable under her anger. Luckily, all the expressions on her face were covered by Hua Yunrong's body. Otherwise, under the light of the crystal lamp, she would have to hide her emotions hypocritically.
Hua Yunrong didn't answer Ling Gui's question. Instead, he looked down and saw Mu Qianqian's shoe less foot.
Hua Yunrong frowned slightly. No matter how many pairs of eyes looked at him, he slowly let go of Mu Qianqian's body and let her stand properly with her back facing Ling Gui.
Hua Yunrong squatted down and picked up the flat soled shoe that was not far away. With one hand, he gently lifted Mu Qianqian's bare feet and personally helped her put them on.
The shoes and Mu Qianqian's dress were the same. They were also bright red, and their feet were inlaid with crystals that were the same as the upper half of the dress.
When Hua Yunrong grabbed it, the small white foot was a bit tight. The delicate toes first shrank back, then they slightly curled up. Finally, Hua Yunrong stuffed them into his shoe.
Mu Qianqian didn't expect Hua Yunrong to do this. The whole venue was filled with the screams of women from time to time. Mu Qianqian's face was also slightly flushed under the jealous and envious gazes of the women.
Hua Yunrong stood up calmly. He didn't feel anything was wrong with his actions just now. He wrapped his arm around Mu Qianqian's waist and pulled her along as he turned around to face Ling Gui.
"Aunt Gui, it's Jinghan's birthday today. Many of the madams and mistresses still need your care. I'll be taking my leave first."
Hua Yunrong didn't give Mu Qianqian any more chances to face Ling Gui. He embraced Mu Qianqian in an unrestrained manner and left the banquet hall.
"Hey, wait a moment, I still have things to do!" Mu Qianqian wanted to go back to Rong Heting.
"Big brother isn't free, just accompany me tonight!" Hua Yunrong, who turned around, was filled with impatience.
Ling Gui stared at the backs of the two men, her brows slightly knitted before finally relaxing.
In the garden, Mu Qianqian pushed her hand away with all her might. Her eyes were wide open, wanting to make Hua Yunrong disappear right in front of her.
