Now that he knew who Wen Huai was, Mu Chengxi already treated him as one of his own. His tone carried a faint hint of a joke, and it was completely different from the hostile air he had in front of the entrance of Ice City First High School.

Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Huai and raised his eyebrows slightly. He pulled out a chair for Wen Xin to sit down. He then sat down beside Wen Xin and poured her a cup of lemon tea he had prepared beforehand.

Upon hearing Mu Chengxi’s question, Wen Huai glanced at Wen Xin, whose expression was indifferent. His cold face was tinged with a faint anger.

He casually pushed the glass of water in front of him and leaned against the back of the chair. His actions were somewhat gentle, but not as casual as Wen Xin’s.

“When I was in the capital, I heard a rumor that Mu Qi from the Mu family was nearing his wedding with Wei Shisheng. Today, I didn’t expect to meet Mu Qi in Ice City, and he’s being affectionate with a high school girl. What does this mean? Do you think high school girls are easy to deceive when it comes to emotions?”

He did not expect Wen Huai to hit the nail on the head with his words. There was no room for negotiation at all. He even called Wen Xin a female high school student with a rather arrogant attitude.

The tense atmosphere made Liang Luoyu and Gu Yanzhe, who had just entered, feel a little helpless.

“Young Master Wen, you might have misunderstood. The matter between Master Xi and Miss Wei is just a misunderstanding. Miss Wei has always been the one who took the initiative to express goodwill to Master Xi, and Master

Xi…

Gu Yanzhe knew that Wen Huai and Wei Shisheng knew each other. Wei Shisheng was the one who helped connect Mu Chengxi and Ma Wenyuan’s collaboration. He remembered that Wei Shisheng happened to be a researcher in the laboratory.

“But he, Mu Chengxi, didn’t refuse either, did he? Does he think high school girls are easy to deceive when it comes to emotions? With the heavens high and the emperor far away, can he be sure that his actions in the capital won’t be known?”

Wen Huai slammed the table hard, stood up, and became more agitated as he spoke. He felt like rushing over to fight Mu Chengxi right now, even if he couldn’t win. Deceiving his sister’s feelings was simply unacceptable to him.

Gu Yanzhe did not expect things to turn out like this. He knew that if Wen Huai saw Mu Chengxi and Wen Xin behaving affectionately, he would tell Wei Shisheng, but he did not expect him to flare up on the spot.

He was a little puzzled. He had never heard of Wen Huai and Wei Shisheng having such a good relationship.

Liang Luoyu stepped forward, wanting to smooth things over. He looked at

Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi. Both had indifferent expressions and did not seem angry at all.

Wen Xin rested one arm on the table and rested her chin on her hand. Her beautiful eyes were slightly narrowed, revealing her dissatisfaction with Mu Chengxi. She looked lazy and gave off a dangerous aura.

“You told me you were going to F Continent to deal with some matters, but it turns out you were returning to the capital for a private rendezvous with a

Her cold and indifferent tone seemed to be calm, but in reality, it was turbulent. If Mu Chengxi said a single wrong word, he would be in danger today.

Mu Chengxi knew that Wen Xin was angry when he saw the corner of her eyes turn red. He grabbed Wen Xin’s hand from under the table and pinched it gently.

“I really went to Continent F. Wei Shisheng’s matter was handled by Gu Yanzhe. I’ve denied the rumors about us many times, and I rarely return to Beijing.”

Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin with a serious expression. He was very calm and did not want Wen Xin to misunderstand his relationship with Wei Shisheng.

Wen Xin could barely accept Mu Chengxi’s explanation, but there must be a reason for Wen Huai to be so agitated. Wen Xin turned his head to look at Wen

Huai.

“Are you standing up for Wei Shisheng?”

“Why would I stand up for her? Il just can’t stand someone deceiving you! A person like him… if he had nothing to do with Wei Shisheng, Wei Shisheng wouldn’t be helping him..”
