Chapter 348 - Mistaken For Being a Seductress (2)

Zhao Youlin ground her molars. The thought of tossing this lass outside only intensified.

“I’m sorry. We’ve spoiled Wanting and have caused you trouble. Did you hurt yourself just now? Do you need to do a medical check-up in the hospital? I’m really sorry…” Upon hearing Mu Wanting’s words, Duan Huaixue had more or less learned of the entire story. She cast a glance at her daughter with a headache and nervously apologized to Zhao Youlin.

Zhao Youlin was stunned. Looking at the gentle woman who had abruptly run over to her, she had assumed that the woman was related to Mu Wanting, as well as a family member of the Mu family. She immediately cast a questioning glance at Mu Tingfeng.

A hint of a smile flashed across Mu Tingfeng’s eyes. He shouted at Duan Huaixue and the man who was following behind her, “My dear sister-in-law and cousin, they are my wife and son.”

Duan Huai Xue and Mu Ruyao froze. They looked at him strangely. They knew that Mu Tingfeng had divorced. But, they did not know that he was courting his ex-wife back. Therefore, they naturally did not understand why Mu Tingfeng suddenly had a wife and son.

However, they were sensible people. Since Mu Tingfeng had said so, they played along with his conversation and greeted Zhao Youlin.

“So, you are my sister-in-law. I’m sorry. This kid is very mischievous. Did he hurt you and your child just now? We are certainly going to teach her a lesson once we get back home.” As Duan Huaixue was speaking this, she inwardly heaved a sigh of relief to herself. Luckily, by looking at her sister-in-law and her nephew’s appearances, they were fine. Otherwise… Judging on how Mu Tingfeng had introduced the two, he clearly cared about the mother-son duo. Even though Mu Tingfeng doted on Mu Wanting, if she really hurt the two, he may not spare her entirely.

As Duan Huaixue thought of this, she felt belatedly scared. She glared at Mu Wanting, who was still clinging on Zhao Youlin’s thigh and not letting go of it, and reprimanded her, “Mu Wanting, how many times do I have to repeat myself that the Tibetan Mastiff is a very large dog and it’s dangerous?! You couldn’t simply let it bite others. What have you done just now?! You…”

Before Duan Huaixue finished speaking, Mu Wanting abruptly looked up and exclaimed, “Ah! By the way, my Hobbit! It’s my birthday present from Uncle Tingfeng. Uncle Tingfeng, if it’s dead, you have to buy me a new one!”

After Mu Wanting finished shouting, she finally let go of Zhao Youlin’s thigh and dashed in the direction where the Tibetan Mastiff had been flung away.

Fortunately, the floor of the Song family’s residence was covered with carpet. When the Tibetan Mastiff slipped down from the dining table and fell on the floor, it had been knocked unconscious, but it was still alive.

When Zhao Youlin heard Mu Wanting’s words, she was stunned. So, this dog was the birthday present given to her by Mu Tingfeng? Hold on, birthday present? His niece?

Zhao Youlin suddenly remembered that when she took Joy to the pet shop and bought Sparta back then, she had bumped into this man. At that time, he seemed like he was there to buy a pet as a birthday present for his niece, right?

When Zhao Youlin recalled the incident at that time, she could not help but turn her head around and shot a glance at Mu Tingfeng. She snickered, “Oh, now I remember. Back then, you wanted to take Joy’s pet and give it to this niece of yours as her birthday present, huh?”

Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes slightly curved upward, giving off a hint of scorn and mockery, akin to saying at the end of the day, he was the ultimate main culprit.

Mu Tingfeng opened his mouth. In the end, he did not say anything. If he had known that one day, he would court back Zhao Youlin, he certainly would not have fought with her over a husky, which had resulted in a poorer impression of him in the eyes of Zhao Youlin and his son.

When Joy heard Zhao Youlin mention Sparta, he subconsciously looked up. Before he fully understood the meaning of Zhao Youlin’s words, Ling Yuemei had already walked back to Zhao Youlin’s side. She pulled Joy’s pant leg and asked worryingly, “Joy, are you okay?”

When the dog lunged at them, Ling Ran immediately carried Ling Yuemei and hid at the side to prevent her from being affected. Even so, she was frightened by that scene.

Ling Yuemei and Mu Wanting were long acquainted. They often played together when they were young. Although the large dog was scary, not long ago, it barked occasionally and had been very obedient before this. He never lunged at others in a threatening manner and bit them like today.

Even though Ling Yuemei was bold, she was still only a child. It took her some time before she recovered her senses. She came over to look for Joy before her own heartbeat rate resumed to normal.

Joy shook his head. Although he was equally terrorized just now, he did not feel scared as long as his mother was around.

Ling Yuemei heaved a sigh of relief when she was assured that Joy did not suffer any injury. She continued to ask the previously unanswered question, “Joy, you haven’t told me, who bullied you just now?”

Ling Yuemei’s question once again gathered Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group’s attention. They subconsciously looked at the area where that family was, only to find that the place was long… empty!

“Those people must have seized the opportunity and fled away during the chaos just now.” Song Yi helped Su Qing and walked over to Zhao Youlin and the rest as he explained the situation in a low voice.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

When Zhao Youlin saw the two hosts of the banquet come out, she cast another glance at the messy living hall, she said awkwardly, “I’m sorry for messing up your banquet.”

“How could we put the blame on you guys? That family had gone overboard.” Su Qing carried the sleepy baby as she went up to Zhao Youlin. Su Qing said apologetically, “Instead, we should be the one to offer our apologies to you. We’ve invited those people to attend our banquet, resulting in you guys suffering so much grievance. By the way, Hubby, I couldn’t recall inviting that family when we sent out the invitation cards in the beginning. Could it be that our subordinates have fished in troubled water and simply let people from various backgrounds attend the banquet?”

Song Yi’s eyes sank. He smirked, “If I remember correctly, we did not invite them. But, we have invited that woman’s younger sister and brother-in-law.”

“That woman’s younger sister and brother-in-law?”

Before Song Yi had spoken anything, Mu Tingfeng was the first to take over the conversation, “That woman’s younger sister is the current mayor of Shalnork. Her younger sister is the mayoress.”

“So, that’s how it is. No wonder that woman kept saying that if anyone dared to lay a finger on her, her younger sister and brother-in-law would not spare us. So, this was the reason why.” Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng locked gazes. The corners of their lips curled upward and their cold smiles grew increasingly prominent.

“Hubby, regarding the incident…” Upon hearing her words, Su Qing frowned. She turned her head around and looked at Song Yi.

Song Yi cast a comforting gaze at her before he turned around and spoke to Mu Tingfeng, “I suppose you would prefer to handle those people on your own. As for that woman’s younger sister and brother-in-law, let me handle them. You could take this as my compensation for you for the grievances you guys have suffered today.”

Mu Tingfeng quirked one of his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, “How do you plan to handle them?”
