nJun Yexuan was carefully chewing and enjoying his meal when he saw He Wanqing stare at him blankly.
n
n
nHe couldn’t help but to stop and ask, “What is it, auntie?”
n
n
nHe Wangqing was a little embarrassed as she glanced at the table. “Are you okay with eating these dishes?”
n
n
nJun Yexuan was a little started and didn’t understand what she meant. So he said, “Everything’s good.”
n
n
nThen, He Wanqing asked him, “I haven’t had a chance to ask, where are you from?”
n
n
nHis hand that was holding onto the chopsticks shook. He deliberated a little before saying, “The capital city.”
n
n
nMu Jinghang watched Jun Yexuan’s flustered ways and was smiling so hard, he was getting wrinkles.
n
n
nJun Yexuan wasn’t sure what was going on, but he knew.
n
n
nIt would be more unusual if the habits and body language of a wealthy young master didn’t scare anyone.
n
n
nAs expected, the next second, He Wanqing softly muttered, “No wonder.”
n
n
nHe Wanqing seemed to have a lot on her mind. Seeing how her own daughter was concentrating on eating, she kicked her leg below the table.
n
n
n“You’re a lady. When you’re eating, don’t be so wild. Be graceful, be decent, be feminine. Understand?”
n
n
nQiao Qing gave her a look and was completely speechless. “Mom, are you ever going to stop with this?”
n
n
nJun Yexuan suddenly realized something and his expression froze. Then, he patted Qiao Qing’s head, “The way Qingqing acts is cute.”
n
n
nQiao Qing slapped off his hand. “Keep your hands to yourself. Plus, don’t call me Qingqing. We aren’t friends.”
n
n
nJun Yexuan instantly chuckled. The way he looked at Qiao Qing was full of spoiled affection.
n
n
nHe Wanqing viewed these two as having a flirtatious quarrel and sighed in relief.
n
n
nAs long as her Qiao Qing wasn’t being looked down on.

n
n
nAt midnight, the same day.
n
n
nMu Jinghang had gotten Jun Yexuan’s order and once all the lights were off inside the mansion, he quietly walked towards the study room while sticking himself to the wall.
n
n
nWho knew that the moment he walked to the study room door, he would see a black shadow leaning by the entrance.
n
n
nMu Jinghang shouted “AH” from the shock, and jumped back three inches.
n
n
nThe shadow in the dark turned on the light in the hall.
n
n
nAfter Mu Jinghang made out the face of the man, he patted his chest to calm himself down, “Butler Chen, are you trying to scare me to death!”
n
n
nChen Ming didn’t make an excuse for himself nor did he seem apologetic.
n
n
nHe looked at Mu Jinghang and asked curiously, “Mr. Jing, what are you doing here so late at night?”
n
n
nMu Jinghang remembered why he was here. Suddenly, he put his hands in his pockets and guiltily stared into the distance.
n
n
n“I was reminded of all the money I lost and couldn’t sleep. So I’m taking a stroll.”
n
n
nChen Ming pretended to believe his made-up lies and consoled with a smile, “All men lose some and gain some. Mr. Jing, you need to maintain a broad heart and keep your perspective. Life is long.”
n
n
nMu Jinghang dry laughed a few times with a straight face. “I am not that weak. I’m not going to harm myself.”
n
n
nChen Ming’s tone sounded like he was comforted, “Good.”
n
n
nMu Jinghang’s face almost collapsed from smiling but since Chen Ming showed no sign of leaving, he returned hastily to his own room.
n
n
nAt 3:00 am.
n
n
nMu Jinghang hopped out of his bedroom window and based on memory, he found his way to the window that he believed belonged to Qiao Qing’s study room.
n
n
nHe was just about to climb up the building when a ray of light from a flashlight shot by him, “Mr. Jing, what are you doing here now?”
n
n
n“Holy mother!” Mu Jinghang screamed and he backed into the wall.
n
n
nAfter confirming that it was Chen Ming again, Mu Jinghang’s heart thumped like a dog’s.
n
n
nAfter all, he was the one doing something wrong here, so it wasn’t surprising he would react this way.
n
n
nScratching the back of his head, he whistled with a grin, “I came out to take a piss. Ah, yes. To take a piss.”
