Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself-Chapter 819 - 829: The Circle’s Laughingstock

"Didn’t they say Young Master Mu had a mission, went on a temporary mission?" Li Yi said from the side.

"A mission? The engagement for Young Master Mu isn’t decided in a day or two, how could there be such a coincidence? You’re making the military sound way too inconsiderate."

Deng Jiarui said, as she fiddled with her hips and walked towards the estate’s main venue.

"Li Yi, what do you think Deng Jiarui means? Do I still have a chance?" Xiao Feng rubbed his hands and said.

Who knows what being the woman Mu likes feels like; that girl with rosy lips and white teeth, icy skin and jade bones, just looking at her makes one want to misbehave.

Knowing Xiao Feng’s ways, Li Yi reached out and knocked him on the head, "Regardless of the situation, since you know she’s Young Master Mu’s girlfriend, you shouldn’t entertain such thoughts, don’t you know what happened to the Chen Family?"

Chen Shanshan used to be a girl who played quite well with them, her affairs are known to everyone in the circle.

Upon Li Yi’s warning, Xiao Feng let out a dry laugh twice, "I know, I was just talking idly, you very well know how strict the old man at home is with me."

"Don’t even talk idly, lest trouble comes from the mouth, let’s go, the ceremony is about to begin."

At this moment in the main hall, when the groom and the bride appeared on stage with a group of groomsmen and bridesmaids, the audience erupted in cheers.

On stage, Shen Wenxuan and Mu Wanxin swore vows under the witness of the priest and everyone, sweetly exchanged rings, and happily kissed each other.

Below the stage, amidst the crowd’s blessings, there were also some whispers.

"The second bridesmaid to the left, isn’t that the legendary fiancée of Young Master Mu?"

"What fiancée, only those who have held an engagement ceremony are fiancées, their engagement ceremony has been canceled, so the fiancée naturally doesn’t count."

"Exactly, she might just be a plaything for Young Master Mu; after he’s had enough fun, who would really marry her? The head mistress of the Mu Family isn’t someone just anyone can be."

"I also heard, that girl is an orphan, with such a background, she certainly doesn’t match the Mu Family, let alone become the head mistress."

"Then why is she a bridesmaid in such a setting?"

"Heh, what’s so special about being a bridesmaid? Haven’t you seen the assistant from the Mu Family is also a bridesmaid? Perhaps Young Master Mu still plans to play for a few more days."

"Shush, keep your voices down, it wouldn’t be good if the Mu Family hears this."

...

Mu Xingfeng sat in the first row, the discussions behind him piercing his heart like steel needles.

It was his lack of consideration that placed An Ran in such a predicament.

Originally, the engagement ceremony was for providing her better protection, elevating her above others in the Imperial City, ensuring no one in the circle dared to look down on her.

Yet now, it’s quite the opposite, the girl has become a laughingstock in the circle, and the culprit is actually him.

Looking at the girl on stage smiling like a blooming flower, Mu Xingfeng clenched his fists.

Just then, an old, strong hand rested on the back of his own.

"Grandpa!"

Mu Xingfeng looked at his grandfather beside him, with suppressed anger at the verge of eruption.

"Xingfeng, Xiao Ran is a good child, she is the granddaughter-in-law of the Mu Family, Grandpa won’t let her face undue criticism or grievance. Today is your sister’s wedding, you better behave."

Old Mr. Mu said, gently pressing down on the powerful fist in his hand.

"But Grandpa..."

"Enough, leave it to Grandpa, since I’ve brought you two together, naturally I will take charge for you." Old Mr. Mu interrupted Mu Xingfeng, seeing the two on stage completed their ceremony and were standing to receive everyone’s blessings, and stood up.
