Chapter 521

521 thank the lady’s good friend

“since it wasn’t miss mu’s intention to be here tonight, why didn’t you explain it clearly from the beginning? she even stayed by jing xuan’s side the whole time to deliberately cause me to misunderstand. it’s been almost an hour since you came to the jiang family, right?”

although they said they were sticking to jing xuan, mu xingxing didn’t do anything out of line.

It was after she came here that she sat down with Jing Xuan and stood up with him. She didn’t hold Jing Xuan’s arm and pester him.

She didn’t even speak much.

But her actions were indeed not very likable.

It was mainly because she had come to Jing Xuan to make her presence known as soon as she had appeared. She had told him that it was Madam Jing who had asked her to come over, and had even handed the phone to Jing Xuan.

jing xuan didn’t take her phone.

mu xingxing told madam jing on the other side of the phone in front of everyone that she had arrived at the jiang family’s residence and had seen jing xuan. she also said that she would get along well with jing xuan.

as soon as she hung up, mrs. jing called jing xuan.

Madam Jing had said something that made Jing Xuan hold back his anger for the entire night.

however, the reason why he could hold back his anger was mainly because jupiter had not done anything out of line except sticking to him like a shadow.

Mu Xing also didn’t find fault with song Meilian.

In addition, this was the Jiang family’s private meeting, so Jing Xuan didn’t want to make a scene and ruin the atmosphere.

The strange atmosphere had been maintained until now.

“Even though it wasn’t my intention, there are some things I had to do. There are too many people from small families that can’t be offended. There are so many people here tonight, who can guarantee that one or two people won’t go out and spread the news to Madam Jing?”

“you have to put on a good show,”

Mu Xingxing’s tone was a little self-deprecating.

The few of them listened to her without any change in their emotions.

he didn’t seem to have much sympathy.

Jiang Rui was the first to respond to her. She smiled.”Miss mu is right, but Yingluo, why don’t you continue to pretend? Aren’t you afraid that if Madam Jing hears about this, everything you’ve done will be in vain?”

“Isn’t that the case?”

mu xingxing looked at shi yan, who was sitting with a wine glass in her hand. ” i’ve heard of miss shi yan’s great name. i should say that there aren’t many people in haicheng who haven’t heard of her. ”

“Miss Shi Yan is miss song’s roommate and good friend. She also has the backing of a powerful figure like the fifth Lord Jiang. i was afraid of offending miss shi yan, so i didn’t dare to make your friend unhappy in your presence. this is a very good reason, and i believe that mrs. jing can understand me. after all, a nobody like me wouldn’t even dare to offend the lady of the jing family, who doesn’t have any real power.”

“It’s not easy for a small figure to make a living. I’ll make you laugh.” Mu Xingxing generously admitted that she was a small figure, as if she did not think it was embarrassing.

Jiang Rui and song Meilian couldn’t see through her and didn’t know if they should believe her.

the two of them looked at shi yan.

“It’s good that you’ve made it clear. Miss mu doesn’t have to take it to heart.” Shi Yan said with a smile.

“It’s fate that we can sit together. Let’s have a drink.”

“of course i won’t mind. i’ve already seen through these things. i’m sincerely grateful that you’re willing to believe me. Let’s not talk too much, let’s drink. I’ll toast you!”

He raised his glass and drank it in one go.

He was very forthright.

it was a huge contrast to her obedient appearance.

Jiang Rui and song Meilian saw Shi Yan also smile and drink a mouthful of wine towards Jupiter. They exchanged a confused look and also raised their glasses.

They couldn’t guess Shi Yan’s thoughts.

did she really believe what mu xingxing said?

The few of them drank for a while, and they chatted while drinking. Jiang Rui got a lot of information from mu Xingxing.

she learned that mu xing had been studying abroad and had just returned from school. she met lady jing by chance and lady jing expressed her strong affection for her. she said that she wanted her to be her daughter-in-law and that she would introduce her to master jing when the time came.

knowing that she studied photography and was quite famous in the industry, jiang rui expressed her admiration and praise for her.

As they chatted, Jiang Heng brought them two plates of barbeque.

he sat down nearby.

jiang rui took a bite of the skewer and looked at him. ” “why did you sit down? aren’t you going to roast it?”

“My dear sister, I’ve been roasting for so long, won’t I get tired? I also need to rest, okay? Eh, why does this sister look so unfamiliar? I’ve never seen her before, right? How should I address you?”

The latter part of the sentence was naturally directed at mu.

It was no coincidence that he came over.

It was Shi Yan who had sent him a message asking him to come over and help.

there were some questions that children would ask without any restraint, and they could achieve unexpected results.

when he received shi yan’s message, jiang heng thought that he had read it wrong. after confirming it again and again, he was very excited.

He was already very happy that Shi Yan thought of him, not to mention that she was asking him for help.

he instantly felt that he had a burden on his shoulders. he was determined to live up to her expectations. he took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality. then, he used the excuse of delivering barbecue to them to carry out his mission.

“Mu Xing, the MU family. the mu family isn’t a big family in haicheng. you might not have heard of it, but i’m a few years older than you. if you don’t mind, you can call me sister mu.”

Jiang Heng followed her advice and called out sweetly, ” “Sister mu!”

“Oh, I remember now. My sister just received a call from Jing city. I think it was from the eldest daughter of the Xie family. She asked my sister to take good care of you and said that you are her good friend. sister mu, are you close to this miss xie? How did you know each other?”

” you don’t have to tell me if it’s inconvenient for you. i’m just a little curious. ” jiang heng laughed. i don’t know what kind of family the xie family is, but i heard from my big brother that the xie family is very powerful, so i can’t help but be curious. i’ve heard of a lot of powerful families, but there aren’t many that can make my big brother fear them.”

” it’s like this. you may not know this, but my big brother is very powerful and bold. he also has my fifth uncle as his backer. there are very few people who can be so valued by him. ”

“did xingran call miss jiang?”

Mu Xingxing seemed a little surprised.

Then, as if he was a little touched, he smiled helplessly and said, ” “What’s wrong with xingran? I just mentioned it to her casually and she actually took it to heart. He’s probably afraid that I’ll get bullied. It’s my first time attending an event like tonight.”

Jiang Heng seemed to be very interested. He didn’t interrupt her and quietly listened to her.

“it’s a coincidence that xingran and i became friends. i’m studying abroad, in the same school as xingran. When I first went abroad, my foreign language wasn’t good, and I was very introverted. It’s inevitable that I’ll run into trouble when I’m alone in a foreign country.”

“There was one time when I was in trouble, and xingran happened to pass by and helped me. We came from the same country, and we both had the word ‘Xing’ in our names, so we became friends after a while.”

“Xingran has always taken good care of me.”

“so that’s how it is. it must be fate that you two became friends.” jiang heng said with emotion.

“isn’t that so.”

“since miss mu is a friend of the eldest daughter of the xie family, why don’t you ask her for help with madam jing? The Xie family is not an ordinary family and the Xie family’s young lady is also not an ordinary person. Solving your little trouble is just a matter of a word for her. ”

Shi Yan also seemed to be very interested and joined in the gossip camp.

They were both smart people. Jiang Rui and song Meilian had a rough idea of Jiang Heng’s sudden visit to mu Xingxing.

However, neither of them showed it on their faces.

He only agreed with Shi Yan.

“yes, no matter how powerful family jing is in haicheng, they can’t be compared with the big families in the capital. it’s only the wife of family jing who has no real power who is making things difficult for you.” Jiang Rui said.

Song Meilian added,”Rui ‘er has the Jiang family, the Yu family, and the SU family as her backing, so she is very confident. But even so, Rui’ er has to give face to miss Xie.” if eldest miss xie spoke up for you, madam jing wouldn’t dare to not give her face.”
