Wen Ya did not dare ask too many questions, and she knew that showing solidarity with Mu Chenyan was the most important thing to do right now.
“Young Master Wu, you must charge by the hour when you’re speaking on behalf of others. Defending someone against injustice in this manner is…” Yu Lingyun was trying to act smart as she commented from the sidelines.
“Wow, Mu Chenyan couldn’t have been fooling around with Young Master Wu to take revenge against Third Young Master Yuan for lavishly living with his mistress, right?” Zhou Xianer had already disliked Mu Chenyan since the start, but right now she was itching to spit some venom.
“Poor Young Master Wu. What’s so good about this woman that she managed to win over both Third Young Master Yuan and Wu Ze…” The mistress of the Zheng Family could not help but say her thoughts too.
These people were always like this: when they saw an opening, they would swiftly swoop in and attack from all directions.
This group of people lived only to stir up trouble!
The online equivalent for them would be the famous keyboard warriors or online trolls!
They would only be satisfied once they successfully spin lies twist truths. No one is truly able to control them.
However, they needed to find a good excuse to do this so as to protect their statuses as young socialites of the aristocratic families. Hence, Feng Rao’s lead gave them the signal.
Several male guests who were present watched the few women cause a scene while simultaneously pa.s.sing comments amongst one another.
Despite this, Mu Chenyan only cared about Yuan Xuan. No matter how many young n.o.bles salivated over her good looks, she would not even spare them a second glance.
However, they had overheard the commotion. Apparently, despite carrying the name of the Third Young Mistress of the Yuan Family, this woman still had an affair with her own attorney, the famous Young Master Wu.
It seemed like they had just obtained some information that could be used against Mu Chenyan. Who knows, this piece of blackmail could be their way into her bedchamber!
Mu Chenyan remained cold and unflinching as she initially did not plan to completely fall out with Feng Rao. However, she had never imagined that this woman would go so far as to drag Yuan Xuan’s pride into this!
She could endure numerous things, but even she had her limits!
“Miss Feng, I feel like everything you’ve said thus far is nothing more than slander.” Mu Chenyan’s icy tone was extremely obvious.
“You claim that Attorney Wu and I are fooling around, but I’d like to know why you entered Lan Gui Garden with my brother Mu Chenwu despite currently having a marriage contract with Luo Hai’s Fang Family.”
Mu Chenyan remained calm as she dropped the bomb.
Everyone immediately burst into an uproar.
Lan Gui Garden was a famous private club in Luo Hai where the people would often play around and get high.
Most people could not even imagine the types of services that were provided there, but they all knew what type of inst.i.tute it was.
In their pursuit of excitement, numerous young people would rush to Lan Gui Garden to engage in S&M, threesomes, swings, and even orgies…
Apparently this young lady who belonged to an aristocratic family was also secretly doing these unbecoming things.
However, the most important point to note was that the Fang Family, whom Feng Rao had yet to marry into, would bear the enormous weight of her affair.
The color instantly drained from Feng Rao’s face.
How did Mu Chenyan know about what had happened between her and Mu Chenwu when it was done so secretively?
Her hand trembled as she pointed at Mu Chenyan and loudly cursed, “s.l.u.t, you’re maliciously slandering my name! I’ll make sure you shed tears one day, so don’t be too arrogant. You may be standing here and speaking all fine and dandy today, but there’s a possibility that they’ll find new evidence tomorrow. You’re not in the clear yet!”
Feng Rao was driven into a corner. Her ferocious expression showed that she had lost all form of self-respect and integrity.
Meanwhile, everybody else craned their necks to get a better view of the show!
“I think Miss Feng wants to taste prison food!”
Just as Feng Rao looked as though she was at her breaking point, ready to turn the civilized quarrel into an all-out cat fight, a powerful and deep male voice cut short everyone’s hopes.
Yuan Xuan stood at the top of a flight of nearby stairs. His tall and straight figure coupled with his imposing manner made him seem like an unmovable mountain. His slender finger gently stroked the white jade ring on his thumb as he gazed in Mu Chenyan and Feng Rao’s direction with murderous intent.
“Who do you think you are to scold my woman as you please?”
As soon as the man uttered these words, all the guests felt a bone-rattling chill run down their spine.
