When Ling Ruiying took the wine glass from Mu Jingrui's hand, his fingers moved slightly and the wine glass fell to the ground.
In an instant, the field was silent.
"I'm so sorry, my old arms and legs are getting less and less useful."
Ling Ruiying laughed loudly, as if she didn't care at all.
He looked at Mu Jingrui and said, "Please pick up the wine glass by Lord Mu. I'll give you a glass to express my apology."
A sharp light flashed through Mu Jingrui's eyes.
He remembered Xiao Yujue's explanation and could only endure all the humiliation in his heart.
He took a deep breath and bent down to pick up the cup on the ground.
Suddenly, Ling Ruiying poured the wine on his head.
The wine penetrates the hair and flows down the cheeks bit by bit.
Xiao Yujue changed his face instantly.
He asked Mu Jingrui to endure Ling Ruiying's temper as much as possible. After all, they still need to win over the power of the Ling family.
But he never expected that Ling Ruiying would openly humiliate Mu Jingrui to this extent.
You know, no matter what, Mu Jingrui is the Minister of War and an important official of the court. Ling Ruiying did this not only embarrassed Mu Jingrui, but also did not save face for the emperor.
In such a huge living room, you can hear the needle.
Mu Jingrui picked up the wine glass and clamped it between his fingers, looking at Ling Ruiying without changing his face.
"I have already drunk Lord Ling's wine. Please give me some advice in the future."
Ling Ruiying restrained her arrogant and domineering smile and looked at Mu Jingrui seriously.
He suddenly felt that if the young man standing opposite him could not be friends, he would have to be removed.
Otherwise, there will be endless troubles.
"Okay, the young man will definitely have a bright future in the future."
Ling Ruiying walked towards the main position with a smile, and Mu Jingrui's hand hidden in his sleeve clenched into a fist.
The banquet continued, and Mu Jingrui quietly stood up when no one noticed and came to the garden to get some breath.
"who?"
Mu Jingrui noticed someone approaching, shouted loudly and turned around, and saw a graceful and light figure walking towards him.
"It's me."
Mu Jingrui felt a little disappointed.
Yin Yuqing walked to Mu Jingrui and handed over his handkerchief.
"Mr. Mu, are you okay?"
Mu Jingrui glanced at Yin Yuqing's handkerchief indifferently. He didn't want to answer it at first, but he saw a figure hiding in the dark and peeking at him from the corner of his eyes.
"Thank you Miss Yin for your concern, I'm fine."
Mu Jingrui took the handkerchief and gently wiped his face.
Yin Yuqing saw that he no longer kept people from thousands of miles away, and a shy and sweet smile appeared on his face.
Mu Jingrui's heart skipped a beat and he immediately regretted it.
"Miss Yin stays away from the crowd, and her family may be worried, so she should go back soon."
Yin Yuqing regarded this sentence as the simplest care and lowered her eyes and smiled slightly.
"My mother knows that I'll come to see you, she... won't worry." Yin Yuqing clenched her fists, as if she was cheering herself up. "Mr. Mu, when will you come to my house to sit there when you have time?
Dad said, I want my brother to study hard with you."
Mu Jingrui's eyes were dim, and he felt it was necessary to let Mu Jingyan and Yin Yuqing make clear.
"Miss Yin, please come back." Mu Jingrui handed the handkerchief back to Yin Yuqing.
"You keep it for use."
After Yin Yuqing said that, he ran away with a blushing face.
Shangguan Wanning couldn't hear what the two of them said, but when she saw Yin Yuqing's appearance, her heart suddenly felt jealous.
She was depressed and found that no matter how sad she felt, she was not qualified to question her.
She was sad and wanted to leave, but suddenly she felt a breeze above her head, and she flashed past her and blocked her face.
"you……"
Shangguan Wanning felt guilty and couldn't help but retreat.
"Miss Shangguan, don't tell me, just passing by?"
Shangguan Wanning couldn't answer the words, and after retreating to the corner, she had no more way to go.
Mu Jingrui stepped forward a few steps, supported his hands on the wall, and wrapped Shangguan Wan in his arms.
"I...I have something to tell you."
"explain."
"You let me go first."
Mu Jingrui didn't speak or let go, and still looked down at her motionlessly.
Shangguan Wanning felt the familiar aura emitted from Mu Jingrui, which made her feel very at ease.
She quickly accepted and adapted to such spacing.
"I want you to tell His Highness the Crown Prince not to win over Ling Ruiying and not to get too close to him."
"What's the reason?"
"Don't you find it strange? Xiao Zhenting could obviously join forces with the Ling family, but he gave up on his own initiative. And..."
"Isn't it because of you?"
Xiao Yujue once had some doubts about this issue, including Mu Jingrui, always felt that something was strange.
But, in fact, Xiao Zhenting gave up.
"I think I don't have such great charm, so I can make him do this. There must be another reason why he gave up the power of the Ling family."
Mu Jingrui remained silent and snorted coldly.
"That's what you're going to say to me."
Shangguan Wanning felt Mu Jingrui's anger. She wanted to tell him his heart, but she still held back when she spoke.
"Shangguan Wanning, which end are you standing on?"
Mu Jingrui grabbed Shangguan Wanning's wrist and asked, "While you are flirting with Xiao Zhenting, you are talking bad things about him in front of me. Could you be trying to take both ends, right?"
Mu Jingrui became more and more angry as he spoke, and the anger in his eyes began to burn.
"Who do you think of me?"
"No, I just..."
Before Shangguan Wanning finished speaking, she heard footsteps coming not far away. She should be the patrol guard.
If someone saw the two meet in private, it would be unfavorable to her reputation. Before she could react, Mu Jingrui picked her up and jumped onto the beam of the room.
The two of them squeezed into the narrow space, and Shangguan Wanning smelled the strong smell of wine on his body.
He was so proud that he felt so sad that he was humiliated by Ling Ruiying in full view of everyone?
Shangguan Wanning felt distressed and forgot the various gaps between the two for a moment. She couldn't help but reach out to wipe his face.
Mu Jingrui's whole body trembled.
How sincere is the tenderness she reveals now?
He couldn't help but curse a few words.
Shangguan Wanning seemed to be able to grasp his mood and stir his heartstrings forever. One move and another look made him unable to let go.
It was not until the guards left that Mu Jingrui carried Shangguan Wanning back to the ground.
Shangguan Wanning wanted to say something, but Mu Jingrui just gave her a cold look and left without looking back.
At that moment, Shangguan Wanning felt physically and mentally exhausted.
"We must find Xiao Zhenting's handle as soon as possible, otherwise such days will never end."
Shangguan Wanning returned to the seat at the banquet and couldn't help but look at Yin Yuqing.
She is also a simple and kind girl. If she can really be with Mu Jingrui in the future, she may be a good match.
