"Sister Xiao."
Mu Haotian smiled as he approached Mu Ruyue, his eyes shining like starlight, sincerely saying, "Congratulations, Sister Xiao..."
Looking at the young man in front of her, Mu Ruyue’s gaze softened, a captivating smile gracing her exquisite face.
Pa!
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Suddenly, a burst of clapping ca from behind. As everyone turned to look, a man dressed in a black outfit appeared in their sight.
The man wore a cool and handso expression with a thin smile. His deep black eyes resembled the night sky and seed to draw people in.
"Xia Rui!"
Mu Ruyue’s breath tightened, her gaze gradually becoming colder, with a chill of killing intent flashing in her eyes.
"So Miss Xiao knows ." Xia Rui’s lips curved up, looking at that stunning face with a playful, ambiguous light flashing in his eyes.
Mu Ruyue let out a cold laugh: "Xia Rui from the Xia Family, who doesn’t know him? I wonder what Mr. Xia is here for?"
"Nothing much," Xia Rui raised a corner of his lips, his deep eyes firmly fixed on that beautiful face, "I just heard of Miss Xiao’s famous na. Seeing you today... you really do resemble her."
He let out a low chuckle, a hint of mockery at the corner of his lips.
Everyone knew whom he was referring to, so their gazes towards Mu Ruyue held a trace of unclear aning...
"Mr. Xia," Mu Zheng furrowed his brows slightly, coldly gazing at that handso face, "if you’re here to attend the banquet, the Mu Family welcos you. But if you’re here to cause trouble, I’m sorry, I’ll have to ask you to leave!"
"Haha!"
Xia Rui laughed wildly: "Why so serious, Mu Family Master? If Miss Mu were still alive, perhaps our families could beco in-laws, and then I’d have to call you Grandpa..."
As he spoke, he kept observing Mu Ruyue’s expression, with a hint of amusent in his eyes.
Unfortunately for him, Mu Ruyue showed no emotion, as if she hadn’t heard his words at all.
Could it be that he was wrong? Is this woman not Mu Ruyue at all?
But how could there be soone in this world whose appearance and aura were identical?
Boom!
Ye Wuchen suddenly erupted with a chilling aura, his deep purple eyes fixed intently on Xia Rui’s face. Under this atmosphere, Xia Rui’s expression slightly changed, and a look of dread flashed in his eyes.
This man is truly powerful...
"Hmph," Mu Zheng snorted coldly, "Your Xia family may be big and strong, but honestly, you’re still not worthy of my granddaughter!"
Xia Rui’s gaze darkened, and he laughed coldly: "There isn’t a woman in this world that I, Xia Rui, cannot have! Mu Ruyue is the only exception! However..."
As he finished speaking, he turned towards Mu Ruyue and smiled, "Though I can’t have her, getting a woman who resembles her so much isn’t a bad consolation. Miss Xiao, you’ve successfully caught my interest!"
At this mont, Xia Rui didn’t notice the chilling aura surrounding Ye Wuchen, as he wore a confident, determined smile.
He would never suffer another defeat! This woman must be his before he ends her!
"Wuchen, it’s just a few words. It’s not like I’ll walk away with him just because he’s indulging in fantasies, so there’s no need to be angry at soone like that."
Mu Ruyue hurriedly soothed the man beside her, casting a nonchalant glance over the recklessly ignorant Xia Rui, and sighed sowhat helplessly.
