“You can’t do this and that. However, drinking should be fine, right?” Fu Heng sighed helplessly.

“I’ll go all out today and risk my life to accompany the gentleman. I’ll accompany Young Master Shen to drink as much as he wants today. I won’t leave until we’re drunk!”

“What are you talking about? Brother Yu, Brother Fu,” A young man walked out of the room.

“Didn’t you say that the business was going well? Why does Young Master Shen look so unhappy today?”

This bunch of idle young masters were even more gossipy than the village aunties when they chatted. It didn’t take long for a group of people to gather around.

“I heard that the girl whom Aunty Wu arranged for him is quite pretty. She should be a gentle southern girl. Young Master Shen is setting his sights too high, isn’t he?”

“What is the use of being gentle? They haven’t even met each other before! I think this little girl has some skills. She was able to make Aunt Wu acknowledge her as her daughter-in-law so quickly. I think Young Master Shen will have a hard time in the future.” Someone gloated at the side.

“Can’t you lower your voice? The person involved is still sitting here. Aren’t you afraid of being kicked?!”

Shen Jingmo slowly opened his eyes and stood up. He had been suffering from insomnia for the past few days while his mood plummeted. Bad memories from the past kept resurfacing. His eyes were bloodshot. The nosy group was making a lot of noise, which annoyed Shen Jingmo to death. He pushed the door of the private room and headed outside to calm down.

Various kinds of people attended the party organized by Fu Heng. In addition to some young men who were familiar with each other in the circle, several internet celebrities had mixed in. They did not dare to go upstairs, so they could only stay in the hall on the first floor to look for their prey.

A commotion by the fountain caught Shen Jingmo’s attention.

Under the dim street light, there seemed to be two people—a man and a woman—quarreling. Shen Jingmo frowned. He was about to leave when he heard a splash. A person had fallen into the water! Shen Jingmo subconsciously looked over and stopped breathing in the next second. The eyes of the little cotton in his dream almost rolled to the sky as she retracted her foot.

She was completely different from what Shen Jingmo remembered. Without her obedient appearance, the young girl was confident and unbridled. She sneered at the man in the pool.

“My name is Mu Qingyu. If you want to take revenge, you can find me anytime. I’ll be waiting for you.”

Mu Qingyu… This familiar yet unfamiliar name rolled through the man’s throat as he looked over with an obscure expression. Shen Jingmo had not seen Mu Qingyu for so many years. Compared to before, Mu Qingyu was no longer as naive and ignorant as she was when she was a student, but she could still easily stir up his heart.

The farce was still going on by the fountain. The man who was kicked into the water was probably some young master’s son. He was scolding the people on the ground. “Mu Qingyu, right? Wait for me to come up, I’ll definitely kill you!”

Mu Qingyu curled her lips and smiled sweetly at the man in the pool. “Goodbye, trash” After bidding farewell, she lifted her skirt and ran far away.

Zhang Yichen wiped the water off his face as he tried to recollect Mu Qingyu in his mind. There was no one with the surname Mu among the prominent families in Yan City nor among the celebrities whom Zhang Yichen knew. However, a number of less popular internet celebrities had sneaked in today… Although Mu Qingyu’s aura didn’t belong to that of an internet celebrity, Zhang Yichen couldn’t think of any other identity that she had.

When he first saw this little beauty, she was chatting with the people around her. She looked obedient and gentle, and her breathtaking eyes were like spring water. Zhang Yichen was moved, so he took the initiative to strike up a conversation with her and asked her to come to the fountain. He wanted to have further contact with her…

Zhang Yichen thought Mu Qingyu was a harmless little white rabbit, so he didn’t expect her to be so ruthless. Didn’t Mu Qingyu know that the people who came to this party were all wealthy and powerful? She actually dared to treat Zhang Yichen like this!

Anyway, since Mu Qingyu didn’t come from a prominent family, then this b*tch who thought she could do whatever she wanted was at his mercy! Zhang Yichen’s eyes were filled with viciousness as he stared in the direction Mu Qingyu left.

In the banquet hall, Tang Xin felt bored as she looked at the men and women who were flirting with each other. Mu Qingyu then came in from the back door.

“Do you know that person?” Tang Xin handed Mu Qingyu a glass of juice.

“I don’t know him. I should have realized it long ago.” Mu Qingyu was also a little dispirited. “The moment I went out, he started to get all touchy. After I rejected him, he even flew into a rage out of humiliation.”

“I shouldn’t have let you go with him alone.” Tang Xin pinched Mu Qingyu’s face. “You weren’t at a disadvantage, were you? Let’s go upstairs. There won’t be so many people around.”

Mu Qingyu blinked and replied in a soft voice, “Sister, he even claimed he would find someone to kill me.” Mu Qingyu looked immensely aggrieved that people might think that she was the one kicked into the water.
