Mufeng then realized that Yuexi and Xiaoze had already left, but he was still in his original position.

He still had Jiang Xun pressed against the wall, his body almost touching her. His hands were still on her waist, and his palms felt hotter than usual.

Jiang Xun seemed to be planning to push him away.

Her hands were resting on his chest. He could clearly feel how soft they were.

Mufeng swallowed, his gaze gloomy.

Just as he was about to let go of her, he suddenly heard a shocked voice, “Jiang Xun! Mr. Qin! You guys...”

Mufeng and Jiang Xun were completely brought back to their senses by the voice. When they turned around, they realized that Jiang Chengye was standing in front of them. They hadn’t noticed his arrival.

Chengye looked at them in shock. “You... you guys...”

It turned out that he wasn’t mistaken when he was at the entrance of the banquet hall. At that time, he’d felt that the aura between the two of them wasn’t normal.

Although they didn’t talk much, it didn’t seem like they didn’t know each other at all.

However, he didn’t expect their relationship to be so intimate!

When did Jiang Xun get to know Mufeng? And just how were they so close that they would sneak off to the balcony to make out?!

Jiang Xun frowned and quickly pushed Mufeng away. He let go of her, too.

Chengye’s thoughts were racing. Eventually, he finally managed to gather his thoughts and he suddenly shouted, “Jiang Xun, Mr. Qin, why are you hugging each other?!”

His voice rang out clearly in the banquet hall, causing the guests to be shocked.

Mr. Qin?

There was only one person with the surname Qin present at the party tonight, and that was Qin Mufeng!

But him and Jiang Xun? With that country bumpkin who had just returned from the countryside?

How was that possible?!

Someone reacted first and rushed to the balcony, which caused a chain reaction of everyone else following after him, wanting to be the first to see the scene.

When she heard the guests rushing over, Jiang Xun looked at Chengye coldly. She suddenly turned around and jumped over the railing of the balcony.

Fortunately, the banquet hall was on the first floor, so this height was nothing to her.

Mufeng followed closely behind her and also jumped over the railing.

When the guests arrived, the only thing they saw was the two of them leaving.

“What’s going on with Jiang Xun and Mufeng?”

Although they didn’t see the two hugging each other with their own eyes, they did see the two of them leaving together. It was obvious that there was some relationship between them.

Chengye then said awkwardly, “It’s nothing, it’s nothing. I was just making a fuss. Let’s continue with the banquet.”

“Mr. Jiang, what exactly is going on between Jiang Xun and Mufeng? Tell us about it,” someone came forward to ask.

Chengye pretended to be troubled and said, “It’s nothing. I just saw them chatting when I came over.”

“That’s not right. I heard you say that they were hugging each other,” another guest said, which prompted a wave of murmurs and nods from the gathered crowd.

“No, no, no. You must have heard it wrongly.” Chengye refused to admit it, but his face was full of obvious emotion. It was obvious that he was lying, which ended up making everyone want to speculate more.

At the same time, Jiang Xun was walking out of the hotel with a dark expression.

On the way, she’d also figured out Chengye’s reason for pulling such a stunt: it was to make everyone think that she had a good relationship with Qin Mufeng. If everyone wanted to use the Jiang family to get a relationship with Mufeng, wouldn’t they all be fighting to do business with Chengye himself?

After all, it was only by establishing a good relationship with him would they be able to further contact Mufeng, right?

Chengye might even want to get something from Mufeng, which was why he would use the guests as witnesses to confirm she and Mufeng’s supposed ‘relationship’ so that Mufeng couldn’t go back on his word.

Jiang Xun stopped and turned around to see Mufeng following closely behind her. She said, “I’m sorry, I...”

Before she could finish his sentence, she saw Mufeng’s mocking expression. “First, you ‘accidentally’ entered the balcony. Then, Jiang Yuexi and Gu Xiaoze just so happened to show up, prompting you to hide and drag me along. Lastly, Jiang Chengye appeared out of nowhere. The Jiang family has a good plan.”

Jiang Xun understood what he was implying. Her face darkened. “Do you think that I conspired with the Jiang family to scheme against you?”

Thinking of the two previous meetings and this one, Mufeng’s voice was cold. “Running into me one or two times is a coincidence, but if you do it too many times, it’s a pattern.”

Mufeng stepped forward and stood in front of Jiang Xun. His height made it hard for her to look him in the eye.

“Your situation in the Jiang family isn’t good. Did they promise you that if you succeed tonight, your situation will improve?” Mufeng lowered his head. His breath was very hot when he spoke, but the aura around him was extremely cold. “Go back and tell Chengye that I’m not interested in a little girl who hasn’t even fully developed yet.”

Jiang Xun couldn’t understand what had happened. Mufeng had clearly increased his favorability towards her by 10 points earlier, but now he was saying such a thing?

Nonetheless, her hands clenched into fists. “Are you out of your mind? I don’t need to curry favor with the Jiang family, nor do I care about my standing. I’m not interested in you at all.” she rolled her eyes. “A coincidence is a coincidence. If you don’t like coincidences so much, then just ignore me when you see me.”

She really couldn’t take this lying down and scolded him fiercely. “Stop being so full of yourself!”

After saying that, she turned around and left, not wanting to stay with this man for even a second longer.

Mufeng’s face was sullen. He stared at Jiang Xun’s back for a while and raised his hand, tugging at his tie in annoyance. He then undid the top two buttons of his collar before he felt that his breathing was slightly smoother.

Mufeng headed to his car and sat down, but did not drive off immediately.

He could not help but recall the scene where Jiang Xun was trapped between him and the wall. When she raised his head, her soft lips had brushed against his chin.

He could still feel the sensation clearly, as if she was still doing it now.

Mufeng felt inexplicably frustrated when he thought that this was all part of her plan.

He exhaled and took out his phone to call Zhang Chengnan. “Help me investigate Jiang Xun’s situation.”

“What kind of investigation? Into her past?” Chengnan asked immediately.

“I want to find out about her current situation in the Jiang family from today onwards.” Mufeng raised his hand and furrowed his brows. He decided to omit some of the intimate details between him and Jiang Xun and briefly explained the situation that night.

“I suspect that the Jiang family deliberately let her get close to me and seized the opportunity when we looked like we were together to cause misunderstandings. Tomorrow, there should be rumors about me and Jiang Xun together. The Jiang family will be able to profit from this.”

The more Mufeng spoke, the more frustrated he became. “The first time we ran into each other at Wenping Mountain, the second time we ran into each other at a restaurant, and today, she came looking for me when I was enjoying myself on the balcony. This can’t be considered a coincidence anymore. Help me investigate her and the Jiang family.”
