Chapter 1420: Chapter 1416: Attending the Banquet

"It’s just an ordinary banquet, you’ll know when you get there."

"Oh, alright."

Anyway, the Mu Family used to love organizing various banquets, and she had participated a few times, so going this time should be no different.

Evening.

Ye Ning got ready and listened as Mu Yeli told her the location.

He had to go ahead to the banquet to make arrangements, so he didn’t travel with Ye Ning.

Over there.

Mu Ba and Mu Qi set off together with Ye Ling.

Ye Ling hadn’t seen Mu Yeli return for several days and was already a bit anxious.

This time, the Mu Family finally announced they were hosting a banquet, so she hurried over.

When leaving, she didn’t forget to quickly pull Mu Ba aside and asked, "Where exactly has Yeli gone, is he at the Clubhouse?"

Mu Ba said, "We can’t inquire freely about Mr.’s whereabouts, maybe."

Ye Ling frowned, "You guys are close to him, and you don’t even know this."

Mu Ba couldn’t be bothered to explain.

Mu Qi was even more straightforward, pulling Mu Ba away and gesturing for him to speak less as the two walked forward.

Mu Qi said, "So many things, and you still care about her."

Mu Ba said, "After all, she’s the Madam."

Mu Qi snorted, "I don’t acknowledge her as the Madam. I believe the Madam is already dead."

"Bah, watch out if you talk like that, Mr. might just kill you."

Mu Qi replied, "Otherwise, why was Mu Da punished to do hard labor, never allowed to come back in this lifetime? If nothing really serious happened, Mr. wouldn’t be so angry. I think the Madam is probably dead, and this one isn’t the Madam."

Mu Ba quickly covered his mouth, "Enough already."

The two hurriedly escorted Ye Ling to the old house.

Over at the old house, everyone had already prepared all the details of the banquet.

When Ye Ling entered, people on each side were respectful.

Although they didn’t like this young madam, they had undergone professional training and wouldn’t show a trace of disrespect on their faces.

As Ye Ling entered, everyone looked at her and kept a respectful distance of three feet away.

With several Mu Family young madams escorted by a contingent of iron cavalry soldiers behind, she was naturally someone people feared.

Ye Ling had long been accustomed to such treatment, even though her days as a Mu Family young madam were not long, she knew that this status was something many people looked up to; it was a special existence.

She could arrogantly look down on many people.

There was no need to please anyone.

So as she walked by, she held her head high and didn’t even look at those envious glances from the side.

Upon entering, there were still quite a few socialites who proactively approached and fawned over her.

A few people sat inside, and someone said, "Have you heard? This time it seems the Mu Family intends to choose a girl for Mu Yeli."

"Huh? Really? Then, Ye Ning..."

"Don’t you know? The Mu Family isn’t very satisfied with her. Rumor has it, because she hasn’t given birth to a successor for the Mu Family yet, they’re very displeased and decided to find a girl to replace Ye Ning."

"No way, such a thing, then Ye Ning is too pitiful."

"There’s nothing to be done, really. It’s unclear why she hasn’t conceived, but she should have given birth to the Mu Family successor when she first married to solidify her status. It’s her own fault for not striving harder."

"But is she finished now?"

"Of course not, as Mu Yeli favors her, I doubt he would just abandon her."

At this time, sitting there, Ye Ling seemed to have noticed something different.
