Mu Tingxiao said nothing, lowered his eyes slightly, and then his eyes fell on Mu Nuannuan's arm holding Li Jiuheng.
Li Jiuheng raised his eyes slightly, the smile on his face was so gentle that there was no offensive power at all, and he said lightly: "Mr. Mu."
There seemed to be other emotions mixed in the gentle voice.
Mu Tingxiao curled his lips, and the curve of the corners of his lips was unusually cold.
His eyes fell on Mu Nuannuan again.
If I have to say it, Mu Nuannuan is still a little afraid of Mu Tingxiao, especially Mu Tingxiao at this time.
However, life always has to go against the current.
So, Mu Nuannuan hooked Li Jiuheng's arm and applied some extra force, bringing the two closer.
Su Mian, who had been sitting silently next to Mu Tingxiao, suddenly stood up at this moment, walked to Mu Tingxiao, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Tingxiao also invited you. If I had known, I should have I went to say hello to you, so as not to ask you to come over again.”
Thirty-year-old Su Mian looks no different from Su Mian three years ago.
Speaking of which, this was the first time Mu Nuannuan had spoken face-to-face with Su Mian in three years.
Su Mian can be friends with Mu Jinyun, so he is certainly not an ordinary character.
Su Mian deliberately said that it was Mu Tingxiao who invited Mu Nuannuan. Just now Mu Tingxiao acted like he didn't remember who Mu Nuannuan was. This was a different way of telling everyone that Mu Nuannuan came uninvited.
Moreover, she spoke with half a hostess tone.
After all, she is not a daughter raised by ordinary people. Su Mian is obviously more mature and cautious in dealing with things.
Just a few fluttering words can embarrass Mu Nuannuan.
Before Mu Nuannuan could speak, Li Jiuheng chuckled and said, "This lady doesn't know something. Mr. Mu originally intended to invite me to the dinner. He was just worried that Nuannuan would be bored by being alone, so he took her with him. Came here."
Su Mian didn't pay much attention to Li Jiuheng just now. After all, except for Mu Tingxiao, she never paid attention to other men.
At this time, she heard Li Jiuheng speak and turned to look at him.
She glanced at Li Jiuheng critically, with a flash of disdain in her eyes.
In her opinion, although Li Jiuheng is good-looking and has good temperament, he is still far behind Mu Tingxiao.
Su Mian reached out and brushed her hair, smiling appropriately and speaking in a very natural tone: "So that's it."
Mu Nuannuan saw Su Mian's expression in her eyes.
It was understandable for a woman like Su Mian to look down on her and Li Jiuheng.
After all, there are always some people who need to use family background and other external things to show their superiority and superiority to others.
Mu Nuannuan sneered and said meaningfully: "Miss Su doesn't know a lot of things. If you have time, you should ask Mr. Mu more."
The engagement between Su Mian and Mu Tingxiao has always been just an empty rumor. She just sat next to Mu Tingxiao. In the eyes of others, this confirmed the relationship between the two.
But Mu Nuannuan and Su Mian both knew what was going on.
On weekdays, it was not easy for Su Mian to even meet Mu Tingxiao, let alone talk to him.
The sarcasm in Mu Nuannuan's words could only be understood by Su Mian herself.
The smile on Su Mian's face became a little forced: "That's true, but Tingxiao and I are usually very busy at work, so we don't pay much attention to these trivial matters of outsiders."
Small things for outsiders
Mu Nuannuan raised her chin slightly, with a hint of ridicule in her eyes: "Oh? You are usually so busy that you have no time to chat. I am waiting to drink your wedding wine, and I don't know how many years or months I will have to wait. "
No one on the sidelines could hear the gunpowder in the words of these two women.
Although there are many women in the entire Huyang City who covet the position of the Mu family's young mistress, no woman has yet seen a tit-for-tat confrontation in front of him.
What's more, there are two women who are closely related to Mu Tingxiao.
One is the ex-wife and the other is the fiancée.
This is quite a show.
Su Mian seemed to realize that these people were watching her show, and her expression turned extremely ugly.
But she still maintained her smile, smiled reluctantly at Mu Nuannuan, then turned to Wen Sheng and said to Mu Tingxiao: "I have a friend here, I'll go over and take a look."
Mu Tingxiao ignored her.
Su Mian had long been used to running into obstacles with Mu Tingxiao. Her expression was as usual, without any hint of embarrassment.
After Su Mian left, Mu Nuannuan turned her head and glanced at Li Jiuheng.
Although she didn't speak, Li Jiuheng understood what she meant, nodded slightly, and turned to leave with her.
She was unhappy and it didn't make Su Mian feel better. After watching the fun, it was time to leave.
However, they wanted to leave, but Mu Tingxiao wouldn't let them go.
"Wait a minute."
Mu Tingxiao's voice suddenly sounded, and Mu Nuannuan stopped almost as soon as she heard his voice.
Li Jiuheng patted her hand reassuringly and turned to look at Mu Tingxiao: "Mr. Mu, do you have anything else to ask?"
"I specially invited Mr. Li to come. Of course I have something to do." Mu Tingxiao was speaking to Li Jiuheng, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Mu Nuannuan.
When Mu Nuannuan was talking to him just now, she was facing him, so he didn't see what Mu Nuannuan looked like behind her.
At this time, Mu Nuannuan's back was turned to him, and he realized that Mu Nuannuan was wearing a backless evening dress.
Compared to the backless evening gowns worn by other women at the banquet, Mu Nuannuan wore something quite conservative, because the back of the gown only had a V-shaped opening, and the bottom of the "V" was only exposed to her back. one-half point.
It can't be said to be very bold, but it also reveals an indescribable little sense of sex.
The expression on Mu Tingxiao's face quickly turned cold, and his eyes became cold and stern in an instant. There was a suppressed anger in his deep voice that could only be heard by those who are familiar with him: "Before talking to Mr. Li, I There is something more important that I need to talk to the lady next to you."
The last three words "Let's talk" sounded like they were said through gritted teeth.
Li Jiuheng did not speak, but turned around to ask Mu Nuannuan's opinion with his eyes.
"It's a pity. I am accompanying Mr. Li to the dinner today, not to discuss things with you, Mr. Mu. If there is anything else, we can discuss it another day."
After Mu Nuannuan finished speaking, she took Li Jiuheng and left.
Mu Nuannuan just refused Mu Tingxiao's request to "talk", and the guests on the side also broke into a cold sweat for her.
At the same time, he admired Mu Nuannuan a little.
Therefore, when Mu Nuannuan passed by, they all consciously made way for Mu Nuannuan.
Mu Tingxiao looked at the backs of the two people leaving together. The expression on his face did not change, but his hands hanging by his sides were clenched into fists.
Mu Nuannuan, very good.
Mu Qingfeng's low laughter came from the side: "Ha."
