Chapter 255: 95 Reverse_2

"Who did this?"

Mu Yichen asked coldly.

"It, it was Xiaofei!"

A girl with little courage immediately ratted out Liu Fei.

Liu Fei immediately turned her head, angrily glanced at the girl, then turned back to explain to Mu Yichen, "Young Master Yichen, I was originally arguing with Helian Hao when, unexpectedly, she stepped forward—I didn’t do it on purpose."

"Not on purpose?"

"Why were you arguing with Xiaohao?"

One after another, two men interrogated her. Jing Feng stepped forward to grasp Helian Hao’s hand, looked her up and down, then cast a cold gaze towards Liu Fei.

"I, I..."

"She was cursing at Mumu pretty badly, so I spoke up. It’s still your fault. Weren’t you the one who wanted to get engaged to her at the time? I said one sentence about how she wasn’t worthy, and she just wanted to hit me."

Helian Hao suddenly freed her hand from Jing Feng, glared at him fiercely, then walked towards Qin Mu.

Qin Mu felt it was not worth it to see her argue with Jing Feng, as it was just making others happy. Looking at the scheming revealed in those three girls’ eyes, she felt a surge of anger and instinctively pushed away Mu Yichen’s hand, stepping forward.

"There’s no need for you to apologize for the nasty things you said just now, but you just hurt my face. I can’t let this grudge go, can I?"

"What do you want to do?"

Liu Fei looked at her nervously. In fact, Liu Fei was two years older than her, but at that moment displayed none of that maturity, just petty schemes.

"Girls take their faces very seriously, it’s more important than their lives. Of course, I’m only going to return the favor slightly!"

"You can’t..."

Liu Fei was just about to shout those words at her when Qin Mu raised her hand and slapped her across the face.

"Qin Mu, what are you doing? She didn’t do it on purpose!"

Jing Qing immediately went over to stand before Liu Fei, just as she had earlier stood in front of Helian Hao.

Liu Fei then covered her face, which she hadn’t managed to protect in time from the slap, and began sobbing pitifully.

The two other girls nearby didn’t dare say much, and the men were also unwilling to step in and meddle.

"Whether it was on purpose or not, you should know best, shouldn’t you?"

Qin Mu looked at her coldly, quite certain that Jing Qing had planned today’s incident well in advance. There was probably even more drama arranged to follow.

"Don’t slander me! We all came out to have fun. Why must you stir up trouble so nobody can have peace?"

Jing Qing looked at her, then around at the people they had grown up with, and turned to push all the blame onto Qin Mu.

Qin Mu chuckled lightly, "Miss Jing is truly an actress. But don’t forget, you and your friends weren’t even supposed to be here. You forced your way in. And I don’t need to elaborate on the reasons, do I?"

Jing Qing’s eyes, which were trying to contain her rage, were nearly failing to hide her fury.

"Enough, everyone stop talking. Yichen, you take Qin Mu down the mountain to get her wound treated. It’s getting late and might not be good."

Jing Feng, seeing that further probing might worsen the situation, cut Qin Mu off before she could continue and turned to alert Mu Yichen.

Mu Yichen grabbed Qin Mu’s hand, whispering soothingly, "Let’s get that wound treated first. We’ll repay everything they did to you, twice over."

Mu Yichen’s voice was gentle as he spoke to her, but it made the women nearby weak in the knees. Were they going to retaliate against them immediately?

"Let’s go!"

Mu Yichen had intended to lead her away by hand, but instead, he scooped her up in his arms.

Qin Mu’s eyes, slightly turbulent, looked at him; although she didn’t ask a word, she felt puzzled inside.

"Idiots, do you even know what you’re doing today?"

Jing Feng coldly questioned them after Mu Yichen carried Qin Mu away.

"Brother Jing Feng, we were just standing up for Xiaoqing," they said.

"And so?" he retorted. "Do you think Mu Yichen will overlook this just because you grew up in the same courtyard and not hold a grudge against you?"

The three girls looked back at the tall figure of the man carrying the agile woman down the mountain, suddenly feeling a twinge of panic.

"And you, go home and reflect on your actions properly. Don’t force your way into events you’re not invited to in the future, or don’t blame me if I turn against you," Jing Feng said, turning to chastise his sister.

Jing Qing huffed coldly and then turned to head down the mountain herself.

They hadn’t reached the summit yet, but could proceed no further.

Helian Hao, watching Jing Qing leave, was still seething with anger. She couldn’t understand why Jing Qing would do such a thing.

The others didn’t dare say much in front of these young masters and the young mistress.

Just as Mu Yichen was setting Qin Mu down at the foot of the mountain, Jing Qing caught up to them, "I apologize!"
