"Uncle Mu, you said she was Miss Mu Wan!" Mu Xuan, a young man in his early 20s, said puzzledly.

……

"Miss, why are you here?" Mu Xuan looked in the direction of Mu Lao, his eyes full of confusion.

He couldn't understand why his daughter should be resting in the mansion. Why did she appear at this banquet with all the good and bad people? Moreover, from her appearance, she seemed to have a close relationship with the man next to her.

Thinking of this, a nameless anger surged in Mu Xuan's heart. He looked at Dong Ying vigilantly, his eyes full of hostility.

"Wait a minute, something's wrong. Why is the young lady so close to that man over there?" Mu Xuan's face became increasingly ugly. He clenched his fists tightly, as if he was going to rush up and fight Dong Ying to the death in the next second.

At this moment, Mu Xuan saw the intimate interaction between Dong Ying and Xiao Wan, and a raging anger suddenly ignited in his heart.

"This bastard, how dare he be rude to the young lady!" Mu Xuan said gritting his teeth.

He could no longer bear the anger in his heart and quickly walked to Xiaowan's side.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Mu Wan?" Mu Xuan tried his best to make his voice sound calmer, but his eyes were still filled with anger.

At this time, Xiaowan was having a happy chat with Dongying, but was suddenly interrupted. Feeling a little unhappy, she turned her head and looked at the strange man in front of her with a puzzled look on her face.

"Who are you? How do you know me?" Xiaowan asked.

Mu Xuan did not answer Xiaowan's question, but took off the longan mask on his head with a happy look on his face.

"Cousin, it's me!" Mu Xuan said.

It turned out that everyone attending the banquet on the third floor was wearing a mask, so Xiaowan did not recognize Mu Xuan.

At this moment, Xiaowan's bright eyes were fixed on Mu Xuan in the crowd, and an ecstatic smile appeared on her face.

She watched Mu Xuan walking towards her quickly with big, cheerful strides, and an indescribable feeling of joy welled up in her heart.

"Not good!" So Xiaowan also lifted her feet lightly, like a dancing butterfly, and walked towards Mu Xuan in a brisk pace.

Then, Xiaowan seemed to suddenly remember something, turned around abruptly, reached out and gently pushed Dongying, who was standing not far behind her, into the bustling crowd next to her.

From her slightly flustered yet cautious movements, it can be seen that Xiaowan seems to not want Mu Xuan to be aware of Dong Ying's existence, as if there is some unspeakable secret hidden in it.

When Xiaowan faced Mu Xuan again, she had quickly adjusted her mood. While waving and greeting Mu Xuan enthusiastically, she slightly pursed her lips, showing a dignified, elegant and polite sweet smile, and said softly: "Cousin, I didn't expect to meet you here! Come on, let's go over there and have a good chat!" As she said that, Xiaowan also affectionately pulled Mu Xuan's arm, and couldn't wait to take him away from here.

However, to Xiaowan's surprise, Mu Xuan did not follow her obediently as she wished.

On the contrary, Mu Xuan's gaze passed over Xiaowan's shoulder and fell directly on Dongying, who was pushed into the crowd by Xiaowan.

At this moment, the corners of Mu Xuan's mouth rose slightly, outlining a curved arc, and at the same time, there was a hint of a barely noticeable sly smile in his eyes.

Then, he spoke slowly: "Hey, cousin, don't be anxious! I just saw that you have a friend with you. Why don't we invite him over as well? Wouldn't it be more lively if we all chat together?" After saying that, Mu Xuan pointed in the direction of Dongying, and he looked like he was deliberately teasing Xiaowan.

Soon, Mu Xuan quickly bypassed Mu Wan and walked towards Dong Ying without hesitation.

At this moment, Mu Lao, who was standing at the side, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Dong Ying with a look full of arrogance and a hint of warning, and said, "My lord, I have to remind you! This Mu Xuan is not someone you can easily mess with. He is the cousin of our young lady, Mu Wan."

"This man seems to have evil intentions towards our young lady and has improper thoughts! You know, he relies on his father's high status in the family and is fearless. Not only that, he has repeatedly proposed marriage to the head of the family, wanting to marry the young lady."

"It's a pity that the head of the family has a unique vision and doesn't think highly of him at all, so naturally he didn't agree to this marriage."

"However, this Mu Xuan is like a dog-skin plaster, clinging to our young lady tightly."

"In my opinion, he is here most likely for you. He wants to cause you some trouble! So, if you don't want to get into trouble, you'd better run away!"

"Huh!" After hearing what Mu Lao said, Dong Ying just snorted coldly from his nose, as if he didn't take the other party's warning into account at all.

Then, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and he continued to explain calmly: "Haha, old man, you are really good at joking! Just relying on him, you dare to come and trouble me? To tell you the truth, among all the opportunists I have met, you are the most knowledgeable and polite one! As for this Mu Xuan... If he really doesn't know how to live or die and dares to provoke me, don't blame me for being ruthless, let him taste the pain!" After saying this, Dong Ying's eyes instantly became sharp, and an invisible pressure emanated from him.

At the same time, beside the spacious and bright window, there stood a figure quietly. This person was tall and straight, wearing an extremely gorgeous robe embroidered with exquisite patterns, shining with dazzling light.

The most eye-catching thing is the dragon mask he wears on his face, which is majestic and solemn, and intimidating.

His deep eyes stared at Dong Ying who was not far away through the gap in the mask, and he kept muttering to himself: "This boy's aura is steady, without any fluctuations, and even his personality is so calm as water, so calm that it is scary."

"People like this usually have something to rely on in their hearts. They must be extraordinary. He is really an interesting guy!" At this moment, if someone knew the identity of this mysterious man, they would definitely be shocked.

Because the man standing here at this moment is none other than Mu Wan's biological father - Mu Di! At the same time, he is also the lord of the entire Dijin City, with a high position and power, and he is feared by all.

However, facing the current situation, Dongying unexpectedly did not choose to escape. Seeing this scene, Mu Xuan couldn't help but frowned, and said angrily in his heart: "This ignorant kid actually dared to get so close to Xiaowan, he is simply tired of living!" After that, he suddenly raised his right arm and began to mobilize the mysterious power in his body.
