"So it turns out he has the Imperial Family as his backing." Wei Qi remarked disdainfully.
In his heart, having close ties with the Imperial Family ant nothing. His father was the City Lord of Tu City, a well-known master in Li Country, whom even the Emperor of Li Country treated with good manners.
Wei Guanguan was even more direct, looking with disgust, "Hmph, just a dog that curries favor and acts on behalf of those in power. I thought he was sothing impressive."
"I seed to have forgotten the status of you two. Naturally, he cannot compare to you, but as the saying goes, ’A strong dragon does not overpower a local snake.’ With your esteed status, why bother with him," Lian’er smiled with pressed lips.
"Miss Lian’er, in your words, it seems you’re speaking for that Mr. Zhu. It appears that Mr. Zhu’s domineering temperant is quite indebted to the Wanxiang Building." Suddenly, Mu Qingge, who had been listening quietly on the side, remarked with amusent.
Lian’er was startled, her small mouth slightly agape as she glanced at Mu Qingge, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. "Young Master, you’re joking."
"Oh? I never joke." Mu Qingge lightly lifted the corners of his mouth. Picking up a cup of tea, he blew away the heat and took a gentle sip.
Wei Guanguan, not understanding, asked, "What do you an?"
She was baffled, but Wei Qi understood. With a sarcastic snort, he explained on behalf of his sister, "Mu Ge’s aning is clear. That Mr. Zhu is so arrogant, and Wanxiang Building chooses to maintain peace. Over ti, doesn’t it just make him feel even more invincible, thinking no one dares ss with him? It’s quite a cunning way of praise that leads to ruin!"
With that explanation, Wei Guanguan understood.
Behind this facade of keeping the peace, Mr. Zhu’s personality is being cultivated to beco more bizarre and arrogant. One day, if he’s unwise enough to provoke soone he shouldn’t, the consequence waiting for him would be devastating. Yet, Wanxiang Building can sit back and watch the show calmly.
"You are so cunning!" Wei Guanguan exclaid, looking at Lian’er in astonishnt.
Lian’er awkwardly twitched her lips, her eyes avoiding Mu Qingge with so fear.
This Mu Qingge was truly formidable, seeing through the Young Master’s plan with just a few words.
Lian’er’s awkwardness and avoidance were observed by Mu Qingge. She smiled and said, "It seems Mr. Zhu once unwisely offended a significant figure within Wanxiang Building, who found it beneath him to take action, but planned to punish through others. This is done cleanly, with no ties to Wanxiang Building. What a brilliant strategy. The person who devised this has not only shrewd thoughts but also excellent patience with their prey, and a character that is terribly vengeful." At the end, Mu Qingge’s clear eyes shone, as she realized the person who set up this strategy had many similarities with her own character.
This person she had never t aroused her intense interest just by a single plan.
Lian’er looked at Mu Qingge in shock, thunderstruck by the content of her words.
Her clear and coherent logic, perfect analysis, and even her confident smile were exactly like their Young Master. How could there be another person in this world who could so effortlessly see through the intentions and plans of their sharp, demon-like intelligent, and extraordinarily talented Young Master?!
Seeing Lian’er’s expression, Mu Qingge’s smile grew, "It seems I was right."
Lian’er was too shocked to speak.
anwhile, the Wei siblings looked at Mu Qingge with stars in their eyes, gazing at her with pure admiration.
"Mu Ge, you’re amazing!" Wei Guanguan said with fervent eyes.
Wei Qi looked at her with even more admiration, "Mu Ge, you’re so clever; if only you were a woman!"
"Damn Wei Qi!"
Slap—!
As Mu Qingge’s face turned dark, Wei Guanguan’s slap landed sharply on the back of Wei Qi’s head.
