"To the banquet?" Mu Yanfei's tone was full of uncertainty. At the same time, she was also worried. Was it appropriate for her to attend the banquet with him?

After all, she was no longer the young miss of the past. If she were to appear at those occasions now, it would be a little inappropriate.

"Well, I'll have the driver pick you up in the afternoon." With that, he got off the bed and walked into the bathroom.

Mu Yanfei stared in the direction of the bathroom, her bright eyes slowly fading away.

She had no right to say no in front of him.

Little Uncle...

She really missed the warm and refreshing him of the past. If something like that hadn't happened, would he not be so cold to her now?

"..."

At 1600 hours in the afternoon, the driver returned to pick up Mu Yanfei. When she got on the car, she saw Chi Chengxuan in the car too. She was slightly shocked for a second, but then she put away her surprise and got on the car.

Chi Chengxuan first took her to try on a dress, for the sake of displaying her pure and elegant temperament, the designer chose a candy color sky-blue muslin dress dress for her. It seemed conservative, but it made her look even more charming and noble.

After changing into the formal attire, Mu Yanfei walked out of the changing room. With lowered eyes, she bit her lips, slightly frowning.

She didn't dare to look up at Chi Chengxuan, afraid that he would be dissatisfied with her.

Chi Chengxuan, who was sitting on the sofa and reading a magazine, saw Chi Chengxuan walk out of the fitting room in a long dress. Chi Chengxuan, who was reading a magazine elegantly on the sofa, saw Chi Chengxuan, who was wearing a long dress.

Still okay?

Does that mean I'm not satisfied?

Mu Yanfei sighed in her heart as she prepared to change into her dress once again.

Chi Chengxuan stood up and walked in front of her. His fingers hooked onto her chin, and his deep black eyes revealed a trace of burning hot light. The incredibly beautiful face in front of him had unknowingly sunk into depravity.

She was really his natural nemesis, constantly pulling at every cell of his body.

He looked away indifferently and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Let's go."

The moment he turned around, Mu Yanfei secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, she had been under his gaze and her heart had tensed up. Her back had become stiff.

When they arrived at the banquet site, Chi Chengxuan was pestered by some business partners to negotiate.

Mu Yanfei couldn't get into that atmosphere. Taking advantage that there weren't many people around, she went to the side to find something to eat. While eating, she looked at Chi Chengxuan who was surrounded and flattered.

At this moment, she felt that she was so far away from him, she could even be said to be out of reach.

"Sister Fei."

When the familiar soft and soft female voice entered her ears, Mu Yanfei only felt that it was exceptionally ear-piercing. When her gaze shifted to Mu Zhiqing, her smile was sweet and pleasant.

"Sister Fei, I didn't expect you to be here too." Mu Zhiqing's expression was full of surprise, but there was also an almost imperceptible hint of sarcasm.

"Mu Zhiqing, aren't you tired from wearing a mask that doesn't suit you?" Mu Yanfei looked at her coldly, she did not want to continue acting with her, "Qi Xinghuan is not around, you really don't have to wear a fake mask in front of me."

"Sister Fei, you're such a bore. You think too highly of yourself." A trace of ridicule instantly appeared on Mu Zhiqing's face. With a tone full of ridicule, she said, "No wonder Xinghuan kicked you right away when your family went bankrupt."

"Then I really want to thank you for taking over that second-hand item." Mu Yanfei choked on her.

Mu Zhiqing's gaze glanced behind her and immediately changed to a pitiful expression. She said with some indignation, "Xinghuan isn't some second-hand trash. I really love him, so why are you still pestering him, Sister Fei?"

"Mu Yanfei, you're really like a ghost that won't leave."

A cold voice came from behind her. Mu Yanfei didn't even need to turn around to know who it was.

Other than Qi Xinghuan, who else could it be?

Mu Zhiqing really knew how to act.

"Mu Yanfei, you're the second-hand goods I don't want!" Qi Xinghuan's expression was tense as he stared at her coldly.

"Ha ha!" Mu Yanfei looked directly at her and sneered coldly. She was too lazy to continue arguing with him.

She turned and walked away, out onto the little balcony to get some fresh air.

Mu Zhiqing followed her out. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across her face. She greeted Sister Fei with a flattering smile, "Sister Fei, it's so lonely here by yourself. Where's your Little Uncle?"

Mu Yanfei was too lazy to respond to her strange tone. At the moment, she didn't want to cause any trouble, afraid of causing unnecessary trouble for Chi Chengxuan. She turned around and wanted to leave.

However, Mu Zhiqing blocked her way.

"Out of the way!" A cold light flitted across her eyes. At this moment, Mu Yanfei really didn't have the mood to play with her.

"I won't let you, what can you do to me?"

Mu Zhiqing smiled as she gently shook the red wine in her glass, as if she was about to pour it all over her.

Mu Yanfei instinctively stretched out her hand to grab the hand holding the wine cup. Mu Zhiqing poured the wine onto herself with a smug smile in her eyes.

"Sister Fei, I only stayed with him after you and Xinghuan broke up. Why do you have to misunderstand me so deeply?" Mu Zhiqing's speed of changing her face was too fast for others to handle. One second before, she had been speaking in a provocative manner, but now, she looked pitiful and innocent.

"You jinx, you killed your parents, and now you're bullying my Qing." When Shen Yazhen heard Mu Zhiqing's pained cries, she walked over and pointed at Mu Yanfei's nose while cursing, "How can you be so shameless? Why don't you take a look at this place yourself? Is it even something a lowly person like you should be here for?"

Mu Yanfei sneered. This was her second aunt. Before her family went bankrupt, she had the opportunity to come to her house every day and flatter them. Now that her family's house had gone bankrupt, her sarcasm was obvious.

"Apologize to Qing right now!" Shen Yazhen yelled at her with a fierce expression.

Mu Yanfei's expression was cold and proud. What right did she have to apologize to Mu Zhiqing? Even if she wanted to apologize, Mu Zhiqing would be the one to apologize to her.

"Second Aunt, what do I need to apologize for?"

"You uncultured thing, I'll teach you for your parents!" Shen Yazhen raised her hand and slapped her face.

Mu Yanfei had nowhere to run, and her hand was grabbed by Mu Zhiqing, so she had no way of resisting. She could only passively wait for Mu Yanfei to slap her, but after a while, she didn't feel the expected pain on her face.

When she raised her gaze to Shen Yazhen, her expression suddenly froze.
