Forget it. The three of them exchanged glances and quickly went to bed. They couldn’t be bothered to argue with her. They still had to study tomorrow. Who had the time to think so much?

Chen Lian didn’t feel good when she saw that Wang Fang and the other two didn’t talk to her at all.

They had clearly seen it, but they did not even ask.

She didn’t know how to start explaining it. She could only go to bed gloomily.

She didn’t care about these Senior Sisters. After all, who knew how long they could stay? If they wouldn’t help, so be it.

At most, she would find someone else. There were so many disciples from the same sect, and these were not the only Senior Sisters.

She did not catch Teacher Su’s eye. All her treasures were placed on Mu Feng. As long as Mu Feng had her in his heart, he would still teach her a lot no matter how much he learned.

Jiang Wanlin did not help Mu Feng. It was exactly what she wanted. She was overjoyed that she could have a chance to be alone with Mu Feng.

As Chen Lian thought about it, she quickly fell asleep.

Chen Lian was fast asleep, but the other three in the room were not. Everyone felt terrible thinking about the missions they had done for Chen Lian for the past three days.

They really thought that Chen Lian wasn’t feeling well, but she was actually helping Mu Feng. She didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. If they hadn’t come back early today, they would still be in the dark. This feeling of being used was not good.

Chen Lian was only eleven years old, but she was so scheming.

The three of them felt like a fishbone was stuck in their throats, but they couldn’t sue Chen Lian. Chen Lian loved to cry, and they had agreed to it themselves. If they blamed her now, it was inevitable that others would think that they didn’t get along with their fellow disciples.

If Chen Lian quibbled, it would be even more difficult for them, so they might as well not say anything. However, they would definitely remember this grudge. If Chen Lian made a mistake and was punished in the future, they would definitely push her.

Mu Feng came to Jiang Wanlin’s residence and knocked on the door.

The two disciples in the same room had already fallen asleep.

Jiang Wanlin didn’t want to disturb them, so she got up. Wang Mingyue was worried about her.

Jiang Wanlin smiled and said, “Senior Sister, don’t worry. We’re in the academy. I’ll be back soon in case he disturbs you.”

At the mention of Mu Feng, Jiang Wanlin’s eyes were cold.

She had never felt that Mu Feng was so rude. It was already past the curfew, but he still came here to look for her. It was inappropriate. In the past, she had never felt it when she was blind. Now, it looked really unbearable.

She even remembered that when she was at home, Mu Feng often came to look for her at night. Her mother had also tactfully told her to talk about it tomorrow. At that time, she did not know how to avoid suspicion. She was afraid that if she did not see him, Mu Feng would think too much and be angry.

Jiang Wanlin opened the door and came out. She said calmly to Mu Feng, “Let’s go over and talk.”

Mu Feng suppressed his anger and could only follow Jiang Wanlin.

Seeing Jiang Wanlin stop, he was about to question her when Jiang Wanlin said coldly, “It’s curfew now. Keep your voice down. Don’t disturb others’ rest.”

Mu Feng felt that Jiang Wanlin was a little abnormal. He suppressed his emotions and looked at Jiang Wanlin. “Wanwan, what’s wrong with you these two days? You weren’t like this in the past. Do you still treat me as your fiancé?”

As Mu Feng spoke, his eyes were already burning with anger. No matter what Jiang Wanlin had done, she did not take him seriously.

Without waiting for Jiang Wanlin to answer, Mu Feng couldn’t help but say angrily, “Ever since you were chosen by Teacher Su, you’ve changed your attitude towards me. You hang out with Wang Mingyue and Fang Lan all day long. Do you know that you were deceived by them? The two of them are smart people. They deceived you and lied to you together. You’re too close to them. They know your every move. Teacher Su won’t accept us all. If you follow them, you’ll only be at a disadvantage, understand?”

“Wanwan, I know you’re not smart enough and aren’t scheming, so you’re easily gullible. I don’t know what bad things they said about me that made you treat me so coldly, but think about it carefully. We’ve known each other for so many years and we’re even engaged. Would I harm you?”

Mu Feng gritted his teeth at the end.

Jiang Wanlin looked at Mu Feng and felt that he was unfamiliar. She subconsciously took a few steps back and said coldly, “Mu Feng, they’ve never said anything bad about you. You said that we’re engaged, then what’s going on between you and Chen Lian? We’re not even married yet, and you’re already eating your fill? What do you take me for? If you say that Wang Mingyue isn’t good, then is Chen Lian good?”

Looking at the furious Mu Feng, Jiang Wanlin took a deep breath. “You’re the one who’s not smart enough. Do you really not understand why Chen Lian is pestering you? You always tell me that things would happen to me if I’m not from a powerful family. What about you? If your family wasn’t a rich businessman, would you have such a good life? If you were just an ordinary person, Chen Lian wouldn’t have looked for you.”

After saying that, Jiang Wanlin felt her heart relax. Looking at Mu Feng, who was already flying into a rage out of humiliation, she felt a chill in her heart.

“Jiang Wanlin! You’re simply unreasonable. You’re the one who let me down. What right do you have to be so self-righteous? If Chen Lian was like you, I definitely wouldn’t take another look at her. You really disappoint me. If you’re the same in the future, then I think I have to reconsider our marriage. Which man is willing to marry a woman like you? At that time, you’ll really be unforgivable for embarrassing Uncle and Auntie!”

Mu Feng’s expression darkened. He wanted to suppress Jiang Wanlin. He would never allow Jiang Wanlin to provoke him like this.

In the past, when he was so angry, Jiang Wanlin would have lowered her head first.

However, this time, Jiang Wanlin’s expression turned even colder. She smiled coldly. “If Chen Lian had a family like mine, she would probably be smiling until her mouth was behind her ears. You’re right. It’s time to reconsider our marriage. As for which man is willing to marry me, Young Master Mu doesn’t have to worry about that.”

Without waiting for Mu Feng to speak, Jiang Wanlin said coldly, “Mu Feng, you will definitely pay the price for thinking that you’re smart. Also, I’ve never admitted that I’m what you call a stupid, impatient, and arrogant person. As for what you said in the past, you know very well who you’re doing this for. I, Jiang Wanlin, am not a fool.”

“Don’t even think about suppressing me again. Didn’t you always say that I’m stupid? Then let’s see who can stay in the academy until the end. It’s getting late. I’m going back to rest. Don’t disturb me anymore. If you have the time, reflect on your terrible personality.”

With that, Jiang Wanlin turned around and left, not giving Mu Feng any chance to speak.

She had never been so cold and heartless before, but she had also never felt so carefree. Her body and mind had never been so relaxed. When she no longer needed to care, she felt unprecedentedly relaxed. As for what Mu Feng thought, it was none of her business.

She would reflect on her engagement with Mu Feng, but for now, she would study with all her might and not miss this good opportunity for nothing..
