At the gates of the residential compound, a black sedan had been parked by the road for quite some time. Soon, the guard, who had been helping to deliver the invitations, walked out from the compound. The window in the back was wound down.

The guard stood in front of the window, bending down and looking at the two figures sitting in the car. After saluting Mu Feichi on one side, he turned his head to Yun Xi and said politely, Miss Yun, everything has been done exactly as you instructed. Just as I was delivering the envelopes, your mother was on her way out. From the look of it, they were about to head out searching for you.

Yun Xi nodded knowingly and smiled at the guard. Thank you for your hard work.

Youre welcome! As soon as the guard had left, Mu Feichi took an invitation from her hand and looked over it, then he lifted an eyebrow. Is this masquerade party of yours being held by Jiang Chenghuan?

Yun Xi glanced at the exquisite invitation Mu Feichi was holding and said to him innocently, You heard it yourself. My mother wasnt going to stay put a minute longer. Although Jiang Chenghuan doesnt need a reason to throw a party, since there was a person he could host it for, why not take advantage of that?

But do you know what kind of person Yan Jiaren is? Allowing your mother to cause a scene at her party, arent you afraid you might risk getting yourself dragged into all of the drama?

Would I let my mother go if I hadnt done my research? Xiang Yuanxun has already given me all the information I need to know about this cousin of Jiang Chenghuans. She is definitely

Yun Xi pondered a while as she was searching for the right words to describe this complicated woman. someone you wouldnt want to mess with.

You know that and youre still throwing your mom into the pit of h*ll? Looks like youre really going all out on her this time.

MMM!! How very clever! The man lifted his hand and patted her head. His eyes were filled with admiration as his lips quivered. It was the gaze of a parent staring proudly at their promising child. A distinct joy and happiness shone in his eyes.

I thought you might disapprove

You made the right choice. Although I dont know what youve planned with Jiang Chenghuan, I can roughly guess. Making a move at Yan Jiarens party is definitely the best method of execution. Lining them all up like dominoes will achieve the most efficient results. If it were me, Id have done the same myself.

As if showing her encouragement, he gently cradled her chin and moved it from side to side. Yan Jiaren is a n.o.body. Shes hardly a threat, so you dont have to worry about her being difficult to deal with if you offend her. Just carry on with your plan. But if youre not ruthless enough, then Ill add fuel to the fire, so be prepared.

Yun Xi could not help but squint. She stared into his deep dark eyes, trying to figure out what the man was scheming in his head. However, it was impossible. She could not read him at all.

Dont tell me youre going to do what you did at the charity gala when you used something of your own to bait my mother. I dont want to end up becoming the mantis too focused on catching the cicada, while youre the canary lurking behind waiting to pounce, all just so you could test my critical skills.

During Old Madame Chens charity gala, he had stolen his own jade pendant in order to bait Liang Xiuqin. If she had not returned the jade pendant to him, it could have been quite a mess.

If that were to happen again this time

Mu Feichi leaned his chin on her shoulder and looked at her teasingly. What do you think? If you dont want to fall into my pothole, then you better dig a deeper pothole for your mother.

Okay, okay, I get it. Yun Xi glared at him, then looked down at the invitation card in her hand. Everything was in place. If she doesnt go big this time, she wont be able to take care of Liang Xiuqin and Yun Ziling for good.

She was not going to let them step all over her and get away with it.

Gazing at her and seeing the fire burning so brightly in her eyes as if it could light up a tiny galaxy, Mu Feichi asked with a smirk, Where are we headed next?

Yun Xi pointed to the gates of the residential compound, If Im not mistaken, my mother and Yun Ziling should be heading out soon. Lets follow them and enjoy the show.

Sure, whatever you say! After all, his schedule was clear for the day, and he was curious to see what she had in store for them.
