Xiao Musheng had not spoken for a long time, but Meng Jiao couldn't help but say, "Brother Xiao..."

Seeing him looking at him, Meng Jiaocai smiled and said, "Brother Xiao is a talented person, I want to make friends, but I don't know if I can..."

"No." Xiao Musheng frowned slightly, and refused before the other party could finish speaking.

Meng Jiao asked calmly: "In terms of knowledge, it is the fourth place in the imperial examination. In terms of family background, his father Meng Wang is a fifth-rank counselor. If Brother Xiao insists on refusing, please inform us of the reason."

Xiao Musheng looked as usual and said another thing in a tepid tone: "I heard that Brother Meng Jiao was beaten at his door a few days ago. I don't know who the person who committed the murder was, but was it found out?"

When she heard Xiao Musheng talk about this, Meng Jiao was quite at a loss and said vaguely: "After checking for a few days, I still found nothing. Maybe the murderer recognized the wrong person."

Chen Ce didn't bother to watch the fun. He happened to hear some rumors about Meng Jiao recently, and he smiled and said, "I heard that Brother Meng canceled his engagement with her on the grounds that the daughter of Xie's family appeared in public and went on business. In order to withdraw from the bride and not to affect himself, he blamed all the mistakes on the daughter of Xie's family. Is there any such thing?"

"There is absolutely nothing." Meng Jiao waved his right hand and then bowed: "My engagement with Ms. Xie is just the order of my parents. The cancellation of the engagement was also a decision made after negotiation between the two parties. How can I blame all the mistakes on Ms. Xie's head? Brother, you have to tell the evidence when speaking."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Musheng's eyes gradually became colder and he said with a reasonable and well-founded statement: "Ling Zun took the contract letter early in the morning and ran to the door of Xie's house to make trouble. The girl Xie said kindly, but Ling Zun broke the engagement in front of many people. Can this be called negotiation?"

Speaking of this, Xiao Musheng paused for a few breaths, then sighed, pretending to be moved:

"If I remember correctly, then the Xie family has kindness to you, the Meng family, and he has abandoned his benefactor so easily... I dare not make friends with Brother Meng Jiao."

After saying that, Xiao Musheng bowed and said "goodbye" and left straight away.

The few people stood there, and they were not staying or leaving.

In the end, Lu He couldn't help but say, "Brother Meng, I'm sorry, Brother Xiao is the kind of person... I suddenly remembered that there was something important to deal with, so I said goodbye first."

Seeing this, Chen Ce quickly followed suit and bowed: "I also remember that there is something important to deal with, so I will say goodbye first."

Wen Xu is more direct. He has always been alone and rarely cares about other people's moods.

The reason why he stayed here just now was because Xiao Musheng was there. Now that Xiao Musheng has left, he only said "goodbye" and turned around and left.

Looking at the people who left, Meng Jiao was resentful, but had to squeeze out a smile on his face. He bowed and bent down and said, "Several students, I'll walk slowly but not see him."

But his hands were tightly held. When he bent down, the expression on his face was so gloomy when no one saw it...

Chen Ce quickly caught up with Xiao Musheng and asked in a low voice: "Ziqing, are you old friends with the girl from Xie?"

Xiao Musheng shook his head and denied it.

"Then why... don't rush to deny it. We have seen it just now. Your words are like venting anger for the girl from Xie."

Chen Ce asked quietly, with an excited expression on his face, as if he had guessed something.
