How had she never known that Jiangzhou had such a handsome man? The composure and restraint displayed in his every movement was incredibly alluring. This was a man whose very hair seemed to radiate charm.

Lin Qing lowered her voice and said, “Don’t speak. He is the head of the Ran family, Ran Tengxiao. Everyone calls him Master Xiao.”

The Ran family? Wasn’t that Zhao Qin’s maternal family?

Zhu Xiangxiang shuddered and finally realized which Ran family it was.

This young and handsome man was likely Zhao Qin’s cousin. She had heard the name Master Xiao before.

Zhu Xiangxiang felt a pang of envy and couldn’t help stealing another glance at him.

At that moment, the man was looking at her, as well, with a gentle smile that made Zhu Xiangxiang’s heart race and left her frozen in place.

“Mr. Zhu, your daughter is well-cared-for.” Ran Tengxiao smirked and walked away.

His remark left Zhu Wentao feeling confused. What did Ran Tengxiao mean?

Zhu Xiangxiang was thrilled, was he praising her?

Zhao Qing rolled her eyes when she got out of the car. How could someone be that narcissistic?

As Zhao Qin passed by Zhu Xiangxiang, she laughed and patted Zhu Xiangxiang’s shoulder. “It seems my older cousin has a good impression of you. Keep up the good work.”

It was only fun when things got heated and chaotic.

Zhao Qin, who had given Zhu Xiangxiang a misleading impression, concealed her role in the situation with a cunning smile and chased after Ran Tengxiao.

“Feeling itchy again?” Ran Tengxiao asked coolly.

“Oh, cousin, I’ve already told you that I lost a bet to Ming Jing. This was his idea, not mine. It wasn’t my intention to make you eat spicy food, and I didn’t know you had an allergy. If I had known, I wouldn’t have joked like that, which caused your stomach to flare up. If you think about it, it’s Ming Jing’s fault.”

Ran Tengxiao narrowed his eyes, “So, I was just unlucky?”

Zhao Qin coughed, “I didn’t say that.”

Ran Tengxiao rubbed his jade thumb ring, smirking. “This is getting more and more interesting.”

She was like a riddle, one never knew when she would surprise him.

Smart people didn’t do things without a reason. What message was she trying to send him through Zhao Qin?

Was it an old friend or the daughter of an old friend...

Liu Yaxin’s face turned pale, and she stepped back suddenly, “Rongrong, don’t you dare speak ill of Mr. Shen.”

“Even now you’re still defending him. If you ask me, that Shen Zhou is just a man who covets beauty...!”

Liu Yaxin raised her voice and scolded, “Rongrong, don’t talk nonsense!”

Her voice attracted the attention of many people around, with all of them thinking of the story of her infatuated pursuit of Shen Zhou that was unsuccessful, leading her to marry a poor and ignorant security guard. Their eyes were full of mockery.

Liu Yaxin really regretted coming. Right now, she was just a human-shaped target.

Suddenly, a red figure in the crowd caught her eye. Liu Yuerong followed her gaze and asked, “Who is she? I’ve never seen her before. Is she one of Jiangzhou’s socialites?”

Liu Yaxin shook her head: “She’s from Jingdu.”

She had seen her before beside Shen Zhou. That time too, was at a banquet. She had only spoken a few words with Shen Zhou and was doused with wine by this woman, who viciously warned her to stay away from Shen Zhou.

Shen Zhou was a man of integrity, but there were never a lack of women throwing themselves at him.

“So what if she’s from Jingdu, we’re in Jiangzhou, and far from the emperor.” Liu Yuerong sneered.

Liu Yaxin squinted her eyes and whispered a few words to Liu Yuerong.

Liu Yuerong’s eyes brightened, “Don’t worry, leave it to me.”

“Oh, I’m so sorry.” Liu Yuerong apologized to the woman with fiery red lips in front of her, mocking her in her heart. Even makeup couldn’t hide her wrinkles, yet she’s trying to steal a man from my aunt.

Mao Nana raised her eyebrows and stared at her, “Watch where you’re going.”

Liu Yuerong had never met anyone more brazen than this woman except for Zhao Qing. Holding back her anger, she forced a stiff smile and said, “Sister, you look so familiar. Have I seen you with Mr. Shen before?”

Mao Nana looked her up and down, “Who’s family are you from?”

“Sister, you’re from Jingdu, so you might not know that there’s someone else beside Mr. Shen. I feel so sorry for you. That woman is nothing compared to you – yet she just seduced Mr. Shen with her foxy charm...!”

The woman’s eyebrows raised in anger, “What did you say?”

Liu Yuerong shuddered inwardly, this woman was terrifying when enraged. No wonder Shen Zhou didn’t like her with such a temper.

Liu Yuerong pointed to Zhu Xiangxiang in the crowd, “That’s Zhu Mingjing’s sister.”

Mao Nana glanced coldly in that direction, thinking she was some fairy. With such looks, she must know the weight of Zhu Mingjing.

With a disdainful snort, Mao Nana strode over.

Liu Yuerong covered her mouth and laughed, “Dog eat dog, a mouthful of hair, that’s fun.”
