Zhao Jingrong became increasingly smug and walked up to Mo Baichuan, whispering softly, "Baichuan, let’s go inside."
Mo Baichuan nodded and followed Zhao Jingrong inside.
"Hiss!"
Just then, a sharp pain shot through Zhao Jingrong’s hand.
Why was he suddenly using so much strength?
Zhao Jingrong turned to look at Mo Baichuan, only to see his gaze fixed on the sofa in the living room.
There were two people sitting on the sofa.
It was Ni Yang and Mo Qishen.
Mo Qishen was peeling an orange for Ni Yang, who was eating it and talking to Mo Qishen, a faint smile spilling over her lips, her eyes clear and bright, dimples shallow, a beauty almost like jade.
How beautiful was Ni Yang?
Beautiful enough to make Zhao Jingrong, a self-important heiress, feel utterly astounded; every encounter with her was dazzling.
Ni Yang was so beautiful, and she was interested in Mo Qishen, that loser?
Could it be that her intentions were not on the surface?
Zhao Jingrong narrowed her eyes slightly, subtly withdrawing her gaze from Ni Yang and turning towards Mo Baichuan.
She now had an intuition that Ni Yang had come for Mo Baichuan.
Yes.
It must be so!
How could she do this?
Ni Yang was shameless!
Mo Baichuan was her boyfriend! She wouldn’t allow anyone to steal him away!
Zhao Jingrong tightened her grip on Mo Baichuan’s hand, determined to keep a close watch on him from now on.
"Uncle Six," Mo Baichuan greeted Mo Qishen respectfully as he walked over.
"Uncle Six, Miss Ni," Zhao Jingrong also greeted, following behind.
Mo Qishen lifted his eyelids slightly, "Mm."
Ni Yang nodded politely at Zhao Jingrong.
Although there were some grievances between her and Zhao Jingrong, she was, after all, an elder, and elders naturally behaved generously, why bother with a junior?
Zhao Jingrong smiled and said, "Miss Ni hasn’t come with Uncle Six for a while, right?"
"Yes," Ni Yang nodded slightly, "Your Uncle Six has been busy lately; he only just found time at the end of the year."
Busy?
Busy with what?
Busy turning into a loser?
Those words, only Ni Yang could utter them without biting her tongue.
Zhao Jingrong almost laughed out loud, the mocking expression in her eyes growing more apparent.
"Seems Uncle Six is indeed a very busy man," Zhao Jingrong said.
Ni Yang was non-committal, as if she hadn’t understood the implication in Zhao Jingrong’s words.
Zhao Jingrong continued, "I wonder what Miss Ni has been busy with recently?"
"Just casually keeping busy," said Ni Yang in a light tone.
Zhao Jingrong smiled and said, "They say birds of a feather flock together, Uncle Six is a busy man, and so is Miss Ni. But who stays busy just casually? Miss Ni must be busy with some great enterprise, right?"
The sentence was laden with heavy irony.
Other than being beautiful, what other merits did Ni Yang possess?
Though she was the Zheng Family’s long-lost daughter, she was born a peasant, a true country bumpkin.
How many notable ladies did she know in this circle?
Compared with her, Ni Yang couldn’t even match a single strand of her hair.
Zhao Jingrong intended to make Ni Yang lose all face in front of Mo Baichuan thoroughly, to trample Ni Yang underfoot completely; only thus could she ensure that Mo Baichuan wouldn’t be seduced away by Ni Yang.
Otherwise, Zhao Jingrong always felt uneasy.
Ni Yang smiled faintly, lowering her eyes towards Zhao Jingrong, her dimples shallow, "Jingrong, let’s go eat fish sometime, you seem quite good at picking bones."
Eat fish?
Ni Yang wanted to go with her to eat fish?
Zhao Jingrong was initially stunned, then realized what Ni Yang meant; her face turned alternating shades of red and white, quite unsightly.
Ni Yang, this vixen!
She dared to mock her!
Although Zhao Jingrong was furious inside, she still maintained a smile on her face, "Miss Ni really has a sense of humor."
Ni Yang’s eyes and brows were clear and sharp, "Jingrong, you’re too modest."
"Jingrong is young and tends to speak out of turn, not a match for Auntie Six. If she has been offensive, I hope Auntie Six will show some mercy," Mo Baichuan intervened, trying to defuse the situation for Zhao Jingrong.
These words made Zhao Jingrong feel uneasy too. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
