Day n of not wanting to be a kept man's canary

"Is that even a question?" Mu Wanyi said sarcastically. "It's because she didn't want to come with her!"

Ever since being humiliated by Leng Tingye last time, Mu Wanyi's hostility towards her has increased. Perhaps it was because she saw her at her most pathetic, but when she looked at her, her eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets.

Mu Yanxin lowered her head and replied, "Changqing said he had something to do and told me to come by myself!"

"Hahaha!" Mu Yanxin found it funny.

He left the table, walked up to her, and said sarcastically, "I don't think Young Master Leng is in trouble. He's probably having dinner with another woman right now, enjoying himself!"

At the last ball, she witnessed Leng Ershao hugging and cuddling in front of Mu Yanxin without any attempt to hide it.

"You're a terrible clown, a pathetic wretch. People won't even take you if you pay them. How pathetic!"

Mu Yanxin looked up, met her gaze coldly, and said sarcastically, "That's right, I paid her, but I don't know who almost lost their life paying her."

Upon hearing this, Mu Wanyi's face immediately turned ugly. She was, after all, a socialite, yet she had been humiliated by Leng Tingye in such a way.

Mu Wanyi was somewhat embarrassed and angry, and raised her hand to slap her. This time, Mu Yanxin did not hold back and grabbed her wrist.

Madam Mu slammed her hand on the table and said sternly, "Enough!"

Mu Wanyi was unwilling and stormed off.

Two people stood facing each other on either side of the dining table. Mu Yanxin could clearly feel the coldness in Madam Mu's eyes, so there was no way she could eat.

He was practically ready to flip the table; his cold, sharp gaze sent chills down her spine.

After a brief standoff, Madam Mu spoke first, "How far have things progressed between you and Young Master Leng?"

As expected, Madam Mu asked that question. On the way here, she had already thought about how to answer it.

"I've been doing what you said, but Leng Changqing keeps putting off the topic of marriage. It's no use me saying anything!"

Madam Mu said sternly, "These are all problems you have to figure out for yourself. Let me remind you, the sooner you marry into the Leng family, the sooner you can see your brother!"

Mentioning her brother, Mu Yanxin's confidence vanished instantly; her brother was her Achilles' heel.

She could only let Madam Mu control her.

She softened her tone, "I understand!"

"Good to know!" Madam Mu's face darkened. "Let me remind you, get pregnant with Young Master Leng's child as soon as possible. Using a child to climb the social ladder is the fastest shortcut for you to marry into the Leng family!"

The current situation left her no room for refusal, so she lowered her head and obediently replied, "I've got it!"

"Alright, I've arranged for a doctor to give you a physical examination!" Madam Mu instructed.

Ostensibly, it was a physical examination, but in reality, they just wanted to find out if she and Leng Changqing had consummated their marriage.

She managed to get away with it during the investigation; she and Leng Changqing hadn't consummated their marriage, but she and...

At this moment, she suddenly realized that her past with Leng Tingye wasn't entirely useless; for example, it was coming in handy now.

Mrs. Mu learned about the changes in her body from the doctor and did not make things too difficult for her.

She did want to stay with the Mu family and investigate any shady organizations within the Mu family.

Madam Mu stated bluntly that she would not keep her and that she should go back on her own.

After leaving the Mu family, Mu Yan felt a void in his stomach.

I didn't get to eat at the Mu family's house, and now I'm a little hungry.

She didn't want to go back to the cold, empty villa, where she would have to cook for herself. So she randomly picked a restaurant, ordered some dishes, and filled her stomach.

I ate a couple of bites, but lost my appetite. Thinking about my current situation, I felt lost and uncertain.

She can't get close to the core of the Mu family at all right now. If you want to delve deeper into the Mu family, you can't do it on your own.

With that thought in mind, she made up her mind. When she came out of the restaurant, she had two takeout meals in her hands.

Wild Gate.

Mu Yanxin was stopped at the door while carrying food; the previous two times she came, she was able to pass through freely.

It seems that Leng Tingye really doesn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

Unable to get in, she could only call Zhou Shuang.

A moment later, Zhou Shuang came out. "Miss Mu, what is it?"

Perhaps feeling that Leng Tingye had gone a bit too far, he was somewhat embarrassed and greeted him with a smile.

Mu Yanxin smiled and picked up the food in her hand. "I'm here to deliver food!"

"One is yours, and one is his."

Zhou Shuang knew, of course, who the "he" she was referring to was. It has to be said, Miss Mu knew how to handle people; she even considered him.

Zhou Shuang felt a little embarrassed but didn't want to refuse. She wanted to say something, but swallowed the words back and only uttered one word, "Okay!"

Actually, what he wanted to say was that Leng Tingye doesn't eat at this time.

Mu Yanxin saw through his thoughts, "It's alright, just take it for me!"

"He who eats another's food is bound to him; he who takes another's gift is bound to him." Zhou Shuang carried two portions of late-night snacks to a designated private room.

This is Leng Tingye's private room. Inside, Leng Tingye is discussing business with several CEOs.

Zhou Shuang pushed the door open and went in, not daring to disturb them.

One of the bosses saw Zhou Shuang come in carrying a takeout late-night snack and teased, "Assistant Zhou, you're so thoughtful! You even brought back a late-night snack for Master Ye in such a short time!"

Zhou Shuang waved her hand, "No, I delivered it for someone else."

Work can be tedious and boring, so hearing about something new always sparks interest.

Someone delivered midnight snacks to Ye Ye, which is quite a curious piece of gossip.

"Has Master Ye finally found a soulmate?"

"I wonder who this thoughtful person is?"

Leng Tingye's expression was cold and stern; he didn't even glance at him.

"Throw it away!" There was no emotion in her voice.

threw?

"What are you standing there for?" Leng Tingye glared at Zhou Shuang.

"As expected, no woman can catch Ye Ye's eye."

"Looks like it's that blind fool again, overestimating himself and trying to woo Master Ye!"

"They dare to serve random junk food to Master Ye!"

Zhou Shuang didn't dare to hold on any longer and whispered, "Oh, okay!"

After all, he had been bribed before; he took people's money to solve their problems, even if it was just a late-night snack.

Zhou Shuang walked very slowly.

Suddenly, Ye Ye's phone rang. He checked the message on his phone and said, "Put it somewhere!"

Zhou Shuang turned back. She could guess that the message must have been sent by Miss Mu, but she couldn't guess what it was that made this unpredictable man change his mind and stay for a late-night snack.

Those opportunistic CEOs who had just changed their tune were slapped in the face, their faces turning red with embarrassment. They wished they could slap themselves, fearing that if Leng Tingye became unhappy, the cooperation would fall through.

The room became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

After finishing their business, Zhou Shuang returned to the rooftop lounge. She opened the box, which contained a bowl of wontons that looked light and delicious.

The pale color of the soup seemed out of place with its surroundings.

Leng Tingye lay on the sofa, rubbing his temples. His head was a little sore, probably from drinking.

"Don't open it, I'm not eating!"
