Chapter 78: Was Fined Three Cups
Fang Mo’er looked up and saw that Bai Rong and Mu Chen were both looking at her at the same time.
Bai Rong had been defeated by the Veiled Queen on the stage previously. This time, she had intentionally asked the Mu family to invite her over.
On one hand, it was humiliating. But on the other hand, she wanted Fang Mo’er to see her and Mu Chen together, so that she could irritate Fang Mo’er.
Mu Chen only thought that the Veiled Queen’s appearance here was just a coincidence.
!!
Bai Rong, on the other hand, looked at Fang Mo’er provocatively. “Miss Veiled, we meet again.”
Fang Mo’er smiled in reply. “Miss Bai.”
Although the two of them maintained a polite expression on the surface, there was even a sense of distance between them.
Bai Rong smiled and said, “Today, brother Mu Chen has officially returned to the Mu family. Since it was such an important occasion, I was the one who asked someone to invite you over to sing. After all, everyone here is part of the n.o.bility. An ordinary singer could not possibly grace such an important stage.”
This sentence seemed to be a compliment to the other party, but in reality, what Bai Rong was saying to Fang Mo’er was, ‘Look, Mu Chen is part of the n.o.bility now. It’s a pity that he’s mine now. You, Fang Mo’er, can go and be filled with envy, jealousy, and regret.”
Fang Mo’er raised her gla.s.s and smiled at Bai Rong. “Congratulations then. I wish you two a happy marriage for a hundred years and may you never be separated for the rest of your lives!”
Fang Mo’er’s words stunned Bai Rong. She stared at Fang Mo’er, trying to see a hint of jealousy and embarra.s.sment under the veil.
Unfortunately, because of the veil, she could not see anything.
Mu Chen did not recognize her at all and even thanked Fang Mo’er.
After Fang Mo’er had taken a sip of wine, she turned around to leave.
The expression on Bai Rong’s not pleasant. She had not achieved her goal yet, so how could she be willing to let her leave just like that?
Fang Mo’er knew that it was not appropriate to stay here for long, so she hurriedly left.
Unexpectedly, however, someone suddenly pushed her from behind.
Fang Mo’er fell forward. The half-full gla.s.s of wine in her hand suddenly spilled all over the man in front of her.
There were cries of surprise from all around.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” Fang Mo’er hurriedly apologized. When she turned around, she could not tell who had pushed her just now.
“Oh, my G.o.d! She’s going to be in big trouble!”
“Young Master Mu’s clothes are all wet.”
Gasps could be heard from all around.
Only then did Fang Mo’er realize that the man with a gloomy expression was the Mu family’s Young Master, Mu Ye.
“Did you think you could put this matter behind you with just an apology? Dream on!”
Mu Ye looked at Fang Mo’er coldly.
His chest was completely wet. This woman had embarra.s.sed him so much on such an important occasion. She could not just let it go.
Fang Mo’er forced herself to calm down and looked at him through the veil. “Young Master Mu, why don’t I compensate you with a piece of clothing?”
“Do I look like I would be lacking a piece of clothing?” Mu Ye sneered. “How about this? You drink three gla.s.ses of wine to atone for your wrongdoing, and I won’t pursue the matter any further.”
The waiter quickly filled up three large gla.s.ses with strong alcohol.
If Fang Mo’er drank even one gla.s.s, she would still collapse, what more if it was three gla.s.ses?
Wasn’t he just trying to make life difficult for her?
She had not expected the Mu family to be so unreasonable.
Fang Mo’er’s eyes flashed, and she quickly said, “Sure!”
As she said this, she reached for a gla.s.s of wine.
Off to the side, Bai Rong was looking on with an excited expression on her face.
When Fang Mo’er became drunk, she would then act crazily and embarra.s.s herself. There would then be a good show to watch.
Fang Mo’er raised her head and took a few sips. Suddenly, she clutched her stomach in pain.
Mu Ye was stunned for a moment. “What’s with the expression on your face? Are you trying to imply that my Mu family’s wine is poisoned?”
Fang Mo’er shook her head, looking embarra.s.sed. “I’m sorry, Young Master Mu, I suddenly have a personal emergency. Can you let me relieve myself first? I really can’t hold it in anymore!”
Fang Mo’er held her stomach as her voice was stifled as well.
She looked extremely anxious, as if she was about to solve the problem on the spot.
Mu Ye hurriedly said, “Go quickly then!”
If the Veiled Queen really could not hold it in any longer, the entire banquet would be ruined by this woman.
It would be the Mu family who would be humiliated.
Fang Mo’er nodded her head in grat.i.tude and ran towards the corridor with her head lowered.
She disappeared very quickly.
Mu Ye’s expression relaxed and he couldn’t help but snort, “How unlucky!”
When that woman returned, he would definitely punish her properly.
However, he waited and waited, but she did not return.
Fang Mo’er quickly sent a message to Little Tian, telling her to leave quickly.
The two of them met at the door.
“Sister, are you going back now?”
“Yes, hurry up.” Fang Mo’er quickly took a taxi and left with her a.s.sistant.
She would not be so stupid as to go back and drink those three gla.s.ses of wine.
It was was best for her to run away.
Surely the dignified Young Master of the Mu family would not send someone after her just because of three gla.s.ses of wine.
After all, the n.o.bility tended to forget things. So, she hoped that they would forget about her.
Meanwhile, at the venue of the banquet, many people had completely forgotten about the Veiled Queen by now.
Only Bai Rong and the Young Master of the Mu family actually waited for a while.
“Where is she?” Mu Ye sent someone to check on her. When that person returned, he shook his head. “She’s not here anymore!”
Mu Ye sneered. “She’d better not fall into my hands in the future.”
He also hurriedly changed his clothes. When he returned to the banquet, he immediately walked in the direction of his brothers.
Mu Chen, this illegitimate child, was now publicly acknowledged by the Mu family.
Mu Chen’s entertainment company had the support of the Mu family. The profile of their whole company had risen, and even the stock price had risen greatly.
