It was a gesture only a woman with an extremely low sense of security would make. Mo Xiao also smiled, no longer looking at the hand that was moving against the wind.

Let her be. From the day she heard that man's heartless words outside the car, she would never love him again. Never.

The feast was rich, and almost all of the upper-class celebrities were present. There were very few people who hosted a banquet during the day that was as lively as it was during the day.

Mu Li got tangled up by himself while Mo Xiao took advantage of the time to sneak out of the banquet hall.

In the middle of the day, she felt that no one would come out. She walked happily among the flowers and trees. After all, it was a five-star restaurant. The flowers and trees here were all neatly trimmed, making it very pleasing to look at.

He bent over a lawn. It was very quiet here. Breathing in the fresh air outside, he felt wonderful.

Suddenly, sounds of movement and footsteps rang out in his ears.

She didn't want to pry into other people's secrets, but now, it was just someone whispering something to her. Furthermore, they were so close to her that it was impossible for her not to listen.

"Xiao Lan, pour this medicine into the red wine and think of a way for the woman beside Mu Li to drink it."

Mo Xiao was also stunned. Wasn't it her who was with Mu Li?

Leng Xueying, what does she want?

Her fingers gently parted the shrubbery in front of her eyes. Through the gap, she could clearly see a waitress standing beside Leng Xueying. She was currently taking over the item that Leng Xueying was holding in her hand.

What was that?

She smiled lightly. She felt that the heavens were helping her. The heavens were making it so that the person who framed her couldn't hide from her.

No matter what kind of medicine it was, she would do whatever she could to return the favor …

Leng Xueying left.

The waitress named Xiaolan also left.

Then, Mo Xiao also stood up at a moderate pace and slowly took another path into the hall.

As soon as she appeared, Mu Li came over and greeted her. "Xiao Xiao, why didn't you tell me why you went out? Let me look for it. Come, there's a fresh pot of pumpkin pie. I only ate one. It's pretty tasty. I'll take you to eat it."

It was a buffet style banquet, so everyone could casually eat and drink while chatting.

"Sure." She smiled. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Xiaolan walking towards her.

Xiaolan held a tray with a glass of red wine and a glass of brandy. The two colors of the wine were easy to distinguish.

When they got close, Xiao Lan stopped beside her.

"Mr. Mu, do you want a drink?"

"Xiaoxiao, do you want to drink?" Mu Li, however, asked her.

She smiled gently, as if she didn't know anything. "Yes, I want that glass of red wine."

Xiaolan immediately smiled sweetly, "Miss Mo is so beautiful. She is a match made in heaven with Mister Mu."

"Hehe, you really know how to talk. I like it. Li, if you know the owner of this restaurant, just let him give her a raise." She smiled lightly, but her expression was one of unspeakable charm.

Mu Li looked at her suspiciously. "Xiaoxiao, are you serious?"

"Yeah, of course I'm serious. Help her raise her salary." It was entirely possible that Leng Xueying would kick him out of the city once he finished adding all of them.

She imagined it, and smiled even more.

"Okay, since Xiao Xiao has said so, I will do it. Say it, what's your name?"

"Xiao Lan, thank you, Mr. Mu."

Xiao Lan left happily, perhaps thinking that a pie had fallen from the sky. Mo Xiao pasted his lips on Mu Li's. "Li, if you want to help someone, you have to help them thoroughly. Now, just let the boss give her a raise. I like her."

"Xiaoxiao …"

"Hurry up." She pushed his arm. "Didn't you agree?"

"Alright, alright, alright. I'll call right away. Wait for me for a moment."

"Go ahead and call. I'll go talk to Ying Ying for a bit and then come over."

"Go say what?" Mu Li glanced at her before returning to Leng Xueying, who was beside Shui JunJue.

"It's fine if we're women, but don't bother about it as a man." She turned and walked away, holding the glass of red wine that Xiaolan had just handed her.

A waiter was in front of him. Mo Xiao bluntly said, "Give me the tray."

"This …" The waiter hesitated.

"Don't worry, just give it to me. I just want to pay my respects to a friend."

The waiter then handed the tray to Mo Xiaoyu.

She put down the tray and turned around. The red wine in her hand had already been changed. She was still holding the glass of wine, smiling as she walked towards Leng Xueyin and Shui Junxian.

"Miss Leng, Mr. Shui, let me toast you." She held up the two glasses of wine on the tray to the two men across from her, waving her glass of wine in the other hand.

The place was just right. One cup was in front of Shui Junzhi, the other was in front of Leng Xueying. The cup that Xiao Lan had given her was placed in front of Shui Junzhi.

Because she felt that Leng Xueying would feel guilty when she saw the red wine.

Sure enough, she raised her head and glanced at the wine cup in Mo Xiaoyu's hand. She subconsciously searched the surroundings for Xiao Lan, probably looking for Xiao Lan. Xiao Lan was excited and happy, because Mu Li had already found the boss here to give her a salary increase.

"Thank you." Thus, she stretched her hand out and picked up the glass of red wine, "Manager Mo, there must be a reason behind this toast." She smiled as her eyes fell on the wine cup in Mo Xiaoyi's hand. Her smile was especially brilliant.

"I wish that Miss Leng will become more and more beautiful, and that business will become more and more popular." After he finished speaking, Mo Xiao finished the red wine in his hand. He suddenly recalled what he had said after she finished the cup of Water Lord's Awareness, "Xiao Xiao, did anyone ever say that you were sexy when licking your lips?"

He did not even look at her. Instead, he turned to Shui Jun and said, "Bamboo House is very good. Finally, I met a good host. Thank you for your hospitality. I still have things to do with Li, so I will be leaving first." Even if something happened to Leng Xueyin, it had nothing to do with her. Because, those few cups of wine were not poured by her at all, and she didn't even have a small bag with her on her. If she couldn't hide anything, how could she drug him?

Thus, no one would have thought that it was her.

"Are you done?" She smiled and asked the approaching Mu Li, "Qiang Qiang, you're almost back. Let's go." After finding an excuse, Mo Xiaoyi left with Mu Li.

What she didn't know was that a deep gaze had always rested on her and Mu Li's arm.

The owner of that gaze was looking at Mo Xiao's departing back. Suddenly, a soft female body leaned on him in front of the crowd and called out softly, "Yu-huan …" Hug Me... Away... "Leave …"

The pink-faced Ying didn't just gently call out to him, she even stretched out her jade hands and wrapped them around his neck.

He had given her enough for one day.

He gave her the bamboo house.

He also gave her a constant companion.

This was unprecedented.

Not even the woman in his memory had.

How much time had he really spent with her?

Little enough that he could even remember how many hours it had been.

He suddenly got bored and pushed with his hand. 'Bang!' A muffled sound was heard as he fell to the ground.

That sound immediately attracted the attention of the crowd. That was because Ying was the female lead of the day, and he had always been by her side. In the dark, everyone knew that he was the real lead.

As for Ying Ying, she was just a woman he held in his arms.

Now, suddenly, something seemed wrong.

The real male host flew into a rage and even pushed away the female owner.

When the gazes fell on Shui Junwen, he realized that he had lost control of his emotions due to the woman who left.

In front of so many people, he had lost control.

This was unprecedented.

He bent down and picked Ying up, "Everyone, I'm getting drunk. I'll send her to rest. Everyone, please enjoy yourself." He suddenly wanted to let go of all these and stop acting.

It was tiring.

When he turned around to leave with Leng Xueying in his arms, his mind was filled with memories of Mo Xiaoyi holding onto Mu Li's arm as they walked away. He couldn't get rid of that image no matter how hard he tried.

"Mr. Shui, what's wrong with Miss Leng? Are you really drunk? " A reporter immediately asked.

Shui Junwen realized that the woman's hand was touching his face, and was actually gently rubbing it. Suddenly, he felt the chicken skin all over his body, and his hand relaxed, causing Leng Xueying to fall onto the ground again. Shui Junzhi waved his hand impatiently at An Feng, then said to him, "Take her to the hotel. Leave the account to me."

"Yes, sir." An Feng agreed, but could not understand why the change in the sense of the water monarch could be so drastic. It seemed like the water monarch was in a good mood at first, but now …

It was a sign that a storm was brewing. Every time something like this happened, there would be an indescribable solemness on Shui Junwen's face, making people not dare to approach him.

However, when she looked down at the person on the ground, An Feng was dumbfounded. Her face was flushed, and she was currently tugging at her dress nonstop. With just a few tugs, her snow-white shoulders were revealed.

An Feng understood what was going on immediately. Ying was the only woman besides Yuan Run Qing who had maintained a relationship with Shui Jun, and now that he had given her a bamboo house, An Feng did not dare to be rash, nor could he casually send such a woman to a hotel. If anything happened to Ying, he would definitely not be able to handle it.
