Shi Jiu made a show of wiping away tears with her hands, then took out a handkerchief soaked in ginger juice and covered her nose, causing tears to come out immediately.

So, when everyone looked over, all they saw was a person who had been bullied by Zhong Min's words to the point of tears.

Human beings all had within them a heart of compassion, not to mention Shi Jiu's tearful appearance, which combined to lead many people to begin feeling distressed.

"This is going too far, is it necessary to bring all of that up again?" It was a girl who spoke, and she too had been an admirer of Mu Xiuhan, the diamond king. When Mu Xiuhan and Qin Mingshuang divorced, she thought she would have a chance, but before she could use her means, Mu Xiuhan was suddenly no longer single.

She was so angry that she came to this engagement banquet today out of anger. Unexpectedly, after seeing such an appearance, she immediately saw Qin Mingshuang as being in the past tense. She did not consider Qin Mingshuang a competitor anymore. Her main opponent now was Ye Ningyin. 

Zhong Min and Ye Ningyin were best friends, so of course she would stand by Ye Ningyin without even thinking about it.

"Miss Qin came to this engagement banquet. I don't know how much her heart hurts by being here. I didn't expect her to be slandered like this." This was said by an observer who had clearly taken Qin Mingshuang’s side, and she shook her head.

A gentle-looking woman approached Shi Jiu, and as she approached, she specially comforted her in a low voice.

Zhong Min couldn’t cry or laugh. She just stood on the stage in embarrassment.

Fortunately, the waiter here looked at her and hurried to the stage to relieve her embarrassment.

The waiter quickly came on the stage and said a few auspicious words, which at least suppressed some scenes at the beginning.

The next thing according to tradition was for the couple to greet their elders. But Ye Ningyin was an orphan and as for Mu Xiuhan, his parents and grandparents had also passed away, so there were only a few distant relatives of the Mu family left.

But as Mu Xiuhan was so proud of himself and what he had built, he would naturally not recognize them as elders, so this part of the tradition was skipped.

Soon they were directly exchanging rings.

Watching Mu Xiuhan put the pigeon egg-sized diamond ring on Ye Ningyin, Shi Jiu's eyes focused.

That ring must have been worth a lot of money.

"Those two rings are said to have been bought by the former Patriarch Mu at a huge price. It's a pity." The woman who comforted her just now explained. She speaks with a faint sympathy.

The way Shi Jiu looked at the ring just now made her misunderstand. She thought Shi Jiu didn't know and was curious.

Qin Mingshuang used to be Mu Xiuhan's legal wife, but she didn't know about this ring at all. Mu Xiuhan clearly didn't like Qin Mingshuang.

"However, it's just a ring. The Qin family has money, and they don't lack those. You don't need to keep these things in your heart."

Shi Jiu nodded and took a closer look at the appearance of this woman.

She looked gentle, but her words didn’t match her appearance. She thought that such a gentle looking person would also be gentle in speaking.

However, this kind of frank speaking suited her taste.

After the two people on the stage exchanged rings, Ye Ningyin shed a few tears and gave another heartfelt speech.

She tried to be smarter than Zhong Min, and didn't include Qin Mingshuang directly in her words. She only said that meeting Mu Xiuhan was the luckiest thing that happened in her life, and then mentioned some romantic details that had occurred including some cross-border phone calls between her and Mu Xiuhan.

However, although the details of her cross-border phone call with Mu Xiuhan in her words were very sweet, they became twisted by the spectators no matter how they originally sounded.

Some brains came up with the key.

"This is what I said... If I remember correctly, Qin Mingshuang and Mu Xiuhan were still husband and wife during the time Ye Ningyin and Mu Xiuhan were making cross-country phone calls."

"Isn't this an affair?"

"I still remember Song Wenyao... I seem to know something..." This observer looked like someone who had enjoyed eating melons before.

"Is Mu Xiuhan that strong? Having three women…He is so full of energy..."

"I admire him, he is indeed the head of the Mu family, and he is different from ordinary people like us."

Ye Ningyin didn't expect what she said to have caused such trouble, she bit her lip and looked at Mu Xiuhan aggrievedly.
