Bai Su rubbed her flat stomach and looked at Mu Chen unhappily.

“I’m hungry.”

Just as she returned from school, she was brought over by Mu Chen before she could even eat. She changed into evening clothes and put on makeup. She was tormented until her chest was touching her back, and she was about to suffer from hypoglycemia from hunger.

“I’m really hungry.” Seeing Mu Chen staring at her in confusion, Bai Su added with a serious expression.

“The buffet is over there. You better know your place and not create trouble for me.” Mu Chen was very impatient. After saying that, he ignored Bai Su and left.

He still had a business deal worth tens of billions to discuss tonight, so how could he care about Bai Su?

It was good that Mu Chen wasn’t around. After eating three bites of the cake, she felt much better. Just as she was about to eat another one, she saw a young girl with exquisite makeup in a red dress walking toward her.

On the young girl’s chest, there was a necklace inlaid with huge diamonds. It was priceless. Unfortunately, the design was a little mature and didn’t match the young girl’s temperament. It was suitable for a more intellectual and mature woman.

“What’s your name? What do your parents do?” Zhang Rong walked over. Although she didn’t like Bai Su, she knew that she was brought here by Mu Chen. If her identity was prominent, she couldn’t afford to offend her, so she asked.

Although Bai Su didn’t like her arrogant tone, she still told the truth.

She said frankly, “My name is Bai Su. I grew up in an orphanage, so I’ve never met my parents. I don’t know what they do.”

Bai Su didn’t expect to be glared at by Zhang Rong.

“I thought you were some important person since you stood beside Young Master Mu. I didn’t expect you to be a girl who grew up in an orphanage. If I were you, I would have killed myself already!”

Bai Su blinked. She wasn’t angry. In fact, there was a slight sneer on her face.

“Miss, you are?”

“I’m Zhang Rong. My father is the top real estate magnate in A City. I grew up with Brother Mu Chen and we have a good relationship.”

Zhang Rong proudly said. Due to business dealings between the Zhang and Mu Families, the two families had a very intimate relationship. She had known Mu Chen since she was young and had always admired him. Unfortunately…

Even if she stayed by Mu Chen’s side all day, Mu Chen had never taken her seriously.

“Oh.”

Bai Su nodded in realization. Zhang Rong was also very smug.

However, she never expected Bai Su to suddenly change the topic. “However, I’m very curious. Since you and Mu Chen are childhood sweethearts and have known each other since we were young, why did he bring me to the banquet and not you? Furthermore, aren’t you also relying on the fact that your father is a real estate magnate? If you remove this identity, what’s so special about you?”

She had seen too many rich second-generation heirs like Zhang Rong, but most of them were shallow. They were only lucky for being born into wealthy families.

“You!”

Zhang Rong’s face flushed. She didn’t expect Bai Su to be so sharp-tongued. She was speechless.

She wanted to make a move, but Bai Su was faster and grabbed her wrist first.

If she was slapped by Zhang Rong, wouldn’t her title as one of the top sharpshooters be undeserved?

When Mu Chen returned from his chat, he happened to see this scene. He had heard every single word of the conversation between Zhang Rong and Bai Su.

Initially, he was worried that Zhang Rong would find trouble with Bai Su. Unexpectedly, she resolved it with a few words. She rendered Zhang Rong speechless with a few words.

When she grabbed Zhang Rong’s wrist, the valiance in her eyes was completely different from her usual demeanor. It aroused his interest in Bai Su.

She was quite interesting.

“Let her go.” Mu Chen walked to Bai Su’s side and nodded his head.

Bai Su was a little unwilling, but she still let go of Zhang Rong.

“Brother Mu Chen, she bullied me, and she got violent. How barbaric.” Tears welled up in Zhang Rong’s eyes as she looked at Mu Chen pitifully and hoped that he would uphold justice for her.

It was a pity that this trick was too immature, not to mention that Mu Chen had seen everything.

“She is the woman that I brought here. If she really offends others, then I will be the one to teach her a lesson. There’s no need for others to interfere.” Mu Chen said indifferently with a threatening tone.

“Even if you are dissatisfied with this, you will have to deal with it. At the same time, I will seriously consider the deep cooperation between Zhang Corporation and Mu Corporation. Perhaps there are better options.”

As Mu Chen smiled, Zhang Rong’s face turned pale.

Mu Chen was threatening her?
