Feng Wu was standing behind Chaoge and Young Master Mu didn’t see her when he walked in.
“Young Master Mu —” Ye Yafei said in an ingratiating tone.
“I was told that the person throwing mud at Elegant Ink Gallery is right here? Step out now and let me see your face.”
Young Master Mu entered the room in a familiar manner. He had a large entourage and someone had already set down a chair for him.
Ye Yafei pointed at Chaoge and Feng Wu with an indignant expression, but she was smirking inwardly. “Those two were the ones who slandered Elegant Ink Gallery. We saw it with our own eyes and we can attest to it!”
“Really?” Crossing his legs, Young Master Mu found a comfortable position in the chair and shook his leg. He looked sidelong at Chaoge. “Young lady, you guys are pretty bold to discredit Elegant Ink Gallery like that.”
Chaoge didn’t like this guy at all and she glared back at him.
“Oh my —” Young Master Mu glanced at Chaoge out of the corner of his eye. “Someone’s pissed. Don’t tell me you’ve never heard of my name before.”
The Young Master Mu who had friends in both high and low places was capable of getting a third-ranked official fired!
Everyone would greet him with great respect!
Chaoge glowered at Young Master Mu!
“You, come here —” Mu beckoned Chaoge over. “I’ve never met someone this ugly and this grumpy.”
This ugly?!
Chaoge was furious and she went on glaring at Young Master Mu.
“Why, that’s a very peevish girl over there. Do you have any idea who I am? What’s with that attitude? You, slap her —”
Mu gave a wave of his hand.
Ye Yafei smiled in satisfaction.
Elegant Ink Gallery was Young Master Mu’s property and those two girls were finished! She was sure of it!
Meanwhile, two stalwart men went up to Chaoge and were ready to slap her!

Just then —
“Young Master Mu, very impressive,” said a cold voice behind Chaoge.
Mu snorted. “You’re with her? Very well. Slap her, too!”
How dare these people slander Elegant Ink Gallery? His Brother Feng the Third was the biggest shareholder of the business! Young Master Mu was very upset.
Ye Yafei laughed so hard that she had a stomachache. Feng Wu, you’re so doomed!
Huo Yin and the others exchanged looks and they all gloated at Feng Wu’s predicament.
Jin Yuntao was exasperated!
He quickly stepped out and stood in front of Feng Wu, blocking her from Young Master Mu’s sight. He then cupped his hands at the young lord. “Chaoge is too young to understand what she’s done. I’ll make them apologize to you. Young Master Mu, please forgive them for my sake.”
“Why, isn’t it Jin Yuntao?” Mu recognized the teenager, smiled a little, and waved him off. “Mind your own business. There, out of my way.”
After that, Young Master Mu rose to his feet and went up to Chaoge.
He then sensed a pair of cold eyes on him. Turning in the direction of that gaze, Young Master Mu saw a face, which scared him out of his wits!
Meanwhile, in Northern Feng Mansion.
The crown prince glanced at Feng as he marched out.
Feng walked behind him and reported in a level tone, “Miss Feng Wu was here because she needed Young Lord Feng to buy a manor on her behalf.”
“A manor?” Jun Linyuan frowned.
“Grand Secretary Fang, the Feng manor’s next door neighbor, is retiring soon. Many people are trying to purchase that house.” Hence, Miss Feng wasn’t here on a date, my dear crown prince. Weren’t you a little too hard on Young Lord Feng?
She would rather get Feng Xun than himself to buy a manor?! So, Feng Xun was more important to her than he was? The crown prince clenched his fists in rage!

Feng was rendered speechless. In order to prevent his master from beating up Feng Xun again, he changed the subject right away. “Miss Feng Wu is in World Tower now.”
The crown prince said arrogantly, “Why would I care where she is?!”
Feng hesitated. “But Miss Feng Wu doesn’t have an entrance card to World Tower —”

Feng said, “But Miss Feng Wu doesn’t have an entrance card to World Tower.”
Jun Linyuan smirked. “Tch — she’ll be thrown out, then! That’s ridiculous, getting into World Tower without an entrance card. Does she think she owns World Tower now?”
Feng smacked his forehead. What was he supposed to do with his young master…
He made another attempt. “I think Young Master Mu is going after Miss Wu now.”
Jun Linyuan halted abruptly!
“As in Mu the Sixth? Feng Xun’s minion?”
Feng nodded. “That’s him, the sixth son of Lord Mu. He’s very fond of pretty women and has 99 young maids and concubines at home already. I heard that…”
Jun Linyuan headed for World Tower right away.
He only took a couple of steps before turning around and glaring at Feng. “I’m not going because of that Feng Wu!”
“No, of course not…” Feng nodded immediately. “World Tower bought some Green Cloud Tea recently, which is a rare delicacy. Didn’t you say you wanted to try some yesterday?”
Feng sighed inwardly. Other than looking after the crown prince’s daily life, he had to be ready to make excuses for the latter as necessary.
“That’s right!” The crown prince set out happily.
Feng was speechless.
Meanwhile, in World Tower.
Young Master Mu’s head went blank.
For he looked past Duan Chaoge and saw Feng Wu’s face.
That face… No matter how forgetful he became, he would never forget such an incredible beauty!
He had seen her just earlier today at Northern Feng Mansion!
But she had been talking to Feng at the time.
Only a handful of people could talk to Feng as an equal!
“Who… are you?” Young Master Mu looked at Feng Wu suspiciously.
She was so pretty. He would be over the moon if he could have her as his own.
Ye Yafei interjected right away. “She’s Feng Wu! That genius from five years ago, but she’s an imbecile and a cripple now!”
Feng Wu?
Young Master Mu found that name very familiar, but not from five years ago… He thought he had heard it only today.
All of a sudden!
Young Master Mu blanched!
He remembered where he had heard it!
In Northern Feng Mansion!
At that time, his Brother Feng had been yelling in his room, “I like Feng Wu! You heard me!”
Brother Feng liked Feng Wu? As in the Feng Wu standing right here?!
So, she was his sister-in-law!
Huo Yin had no idea what was going on in Young Master Mu’s head. Seeing how he stared at Feng Wu, Huo Yin thought that the young master was furious, so she added, “That’s her! She slandered Elegant Ink Gallery for selling fake antiques! We told her that Elegant Ink Gallery was your business but she was still —”
“Shut up!” Young Master Mu slapped Huo Yin hard!
“Smack —”
Huo Yin spun around at the crisp slap and everyone else watched in bewilderment!
No one had seen that coming.
Wasn’t Huo Yin Ye Yafei’s minion? Wasn’t Ye Yafei on Young Master Mu’s side?
Ye Yafei was the most astonished of them all.
She stared at Mu in disbelief. “Young Master Mu, you…”
Mu ignored Ye Yafei. He quickly went up to Feng Wu and beamed at her. “Sister-in-law, I’m so glad to see you here! Hahaha! Sorry about what happened just then. My bad. I didn’t recognize you. Please forgive me. I —”
Immediately, all eyes were on Feng Wu!
Sister-in-law?!
Why would Young Master Mu call her that?
What was going on here?!
Feng Wu cut Mu off with a frown. “What sister-in-law? Watch your language!”
