"You're so naive! Do you think whoever you call will be able to take you in?" Long Meijing said mockingly.

"Beauty, if you beg me, maybe I can take you in!" Long Meijing's cousin said with a wicked smile, reaching out to touch Murong Xue's pretty face.

Liu Huali reached out and grabbed his hand. "What are you doing? Behave yourself!"

Murong Xue glanced at Liu Huali, thinking that she didn't bring him here in vain.

Long Meijing's cousin felt so painful that his face was slightly distorted. He clenched his other fist and wanted to hit Liu Huali's face. "Let go of me! Do you know who I am? How dare you grab my hand!"

Fortunately, the guards of the Mo Family stepped forward to stop them in time. After separating the two, he said humbly, "I'm sorry, gentlemen. The Mo Family does not allow any fighting here."

Long Meijing's cousin was furious and still wanted to rush up to beat Liu Huali, but he held back after hearing the words of the Mo Family's guard. He was not too brainless enough to challenge the power of the Mo Family. He glared at Liu Huali fiercely, "Just wait and see, you b*st*rd. A nobody with no power dares to fight against me! You're going to suffer!"

Liu Huali stood in front of Murong Xue and didn't speak. When dealing with such an unreasonable hooligan, it was useless to say anything.

Long Meijing's cousin suddenly changed his attitude. "As long as this beauty stays with me for a few nights, it's possible I can forgive you for being rude just now." He eyed up Murong Xue's curvy figure with a bit of lewdness, thinking that it must feel wonderful to sleep with such a beauty.

"Murong Xue, my cousin doesn't have much patience. He is also the eldest son of the Liu Family in the capital, so you should be flattered if he's willing to be with you. Well, if you go in with my cousin, I will reluctantly go in with Huali." Long Meijing had never been more pleasant than she was now. The anger she had when she felt inferior to Murong Xue in various aspects in school disappeared right away. In this world, it didn't matter how beautiful and capable she was. She was still humiliated by her cousin here.

Long Meijing, who originally had a smug smile on her face, suddenly put on a shy smile when she saw Mo Liufeng walking towards her from inside. She also lowered her head and checked her dress before showing her best state. She also tugged at her cousin's sleeve, signaling him to pay attention as Mo Liufeng was coming.

Murong Xue, who hadn't spoken from the beginning to the end, suddenly made a playful expression. Long Meijing was still young and naive, but her change in attitude amazed Murong Xue.

"Young Master!" The guards at the door respectfully bowed and saluted Mo Liufeng who came out from inside.

Long Meijing subconsciously moved in front of Murong Xue, blocking Murong Xue. She said with a sweet smile on her face, "Mr. Mo, I'm..."

Mo Liufeng frowned and glanced at Long Meijing, who was like some silly schoolgirls. Without stopping, he walked past her and went straight to Murong Xue with a hearty smile. "Xue, you're finally here. Grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time."

Murong Xue also showed a faint smile, "Ha-ha, I haven't seen Grandpa Mo for a long time. I miss him."

The familiarity of the two made Long Meijing and her cousin turn pale instantly, and their eyes widened in disbelief.

Long Meijing's cousin remembered what he had just said. He was a bit panicked. He was doomed because he actually flirted with Mo Liufeng's woman.

"Let's go in then. Who is this gentleman?" Mo Liufeng asked when he saw that Murong Xue was actually holding another boy's arm.

"This is my friend, and it happens that I don't have a partner to come with me, so... You won't mind if I bring a friend here, right?" Murong Xue said mischievously.

A flash of emotion appeared on Mo Liufeng's face. "A friend?" He eyed Liu Huali up and down as if he had been estimating him.

"Mr. Mo, it's a pleasure to meet you. Forgive my gaffe. I'm Liu Huali!" Liu Huali extended his right hand.

Mo Liufeng also stretched out his hand, and the two simply shook hands. "Hello, I'm Mo Liufeng!" After letting go of his hand, Mo Liufeng said again, "Let's get in to talk!"

"Wait!" Murong Xue walked up to Long Meijing and said, "Can you two repeat what you just said?"

Long Meijing clenched her hands tightly and bit her lower lip, unable to utter a word. She didn't have the courage to offend the Mo Family. After listening to their conversation, she was certainly aware that Murong Xue must have a good relationship with the Mo Family since she was invited by Mo Liufeng's grandpa.

"I'm sorry. It's all my fault for talking nonsense just now. Miss, please forgive me for my rudeness!" Her cousin bowed his head and bent over in an instant, wishing to bury himself in the ground. Although he was always fooling around, he knew that there were some people that he couldn't offend. The Mo Family could simply make their Liu Family unable to live in the capital at any minute.

After Murong Xue sneered, she didn't intend to pay any attention to these two people. "Let's go, Liufeng!"

Mo Liufeng also cast a cold glance at the two people, which instantly made Long Meijing's pale faces even paler.

Murong Xue and the two men walked in while chatting and laughing while Long Meijing and her cousin stood at the door, looking stunned and drained.

"Didn't you say that those two people had no powerful background?" After Mo Liufeng and the other two walked away, Long Meijing's cousin angrily said to her.

Long Meijing was already annoyed. The smugness she had just now disappeared. She was crushed once again. Murong Xue was always superior to her. Why? And she actually had a close relationship with the Mo Family. "God knows what means she used to socialize with the Mo Family!" She said angrily.

In any case, she had to attend this banquet. She got such an opportunity to show her face after she and her cousin worked so hard to get the invitation.

Even if they couldn't form a relationship with the Mo Family, there were other aristocratic families. Originally, they should be pleased if a third-rate aristocratic family like them could socialize with a second-rate aristocratic family. How dare they wish to connect with a first-rate aristocratic family like the Mo Family?

It was truly fortunate that they weren't kicked out just now. Long Meijing didn't expect Murong Xue to let them go like this because she thought Murong Xue would take revenge on them fiercely.

Even so, she would never be willing to think that Murong Xue was better than her. She believed that Murong Xue must have used her beauty to bewitch Mo Liufeng. Since Murong Xue could do that, she did not believe that she would be worse than her. At this moment, Long Meijing's mind was completely distorted.

"Liufeng, where did Aili go? Why didn't I see her?" Murong Xue asked.

"She's still upstairs, preparing. Tonight, grandpa said that he would announce her identity. After protecting her for so long, it's time for her to grow up." Mo Liufeng looked at her and said with a smile. It had been a long time, and their grandfather was getting older.

"Liufeng, don't worry. Aili is a tough girl!" Murong Xue said with a smile. Mo Aili seemed to be carefree, but in fact, the way she saw things was better than anyone else. Murong Xue felt that it was certain that Mo Aili would definitely impress everyone when she grew up.

"Thank you, Xue!" Mo Liufeng was truly grateful to Murong Xue. Whether it was because she cured his grandfather or because she started a business with Mo Aili, he was extremely grateful.

"I'm really not used to it when you are being so courteous, Liufeng!" Murong Xue raised a big smile.

"Let's go and see Grandpa first." Mo Liufeng said.

Murong Xue nodded. She also planned to do so. She looked at Liu Huali on the side and asked with her eyes.

"I'll go over there to register the gifts. You guys go ahead." Liu Huali said with a smile. It was not because he didn't want to visit Mo Liufeng's grandpa, but because he knew it was the right thing to do. With Liu Huali's current identity, visiting Mo Changfeng would only cause trouble to Murong Xue, which would also seem disrespectful.

Liu Huali's answer made Mo Liufeng's eyes flash with an imperceptible look of satisfaction. Although it was fine to take him with them, it would make Liu Huali leave a slightly bad impression on others.

Murong Xue also thought of this. She could only be responsible for bringing Liu Huali in. Whether he could gain anything depended entirely on his own charm. "Suit yourself then, Huali. Call me if you need anything." Although it was unlikely that anyone would dare to cause trouble at the banquet, Murong Xue still reminded Liu Huali just in case. She was the one who brought him here, so she should look out for him.

"See you later!" Liu Huali smiled and walked in the other direction, where the guests' gifts were registered.

Murong Xue was still holding her gift box. She had to hand this gift to Grandpa Mo herself. After all, it was not an ordinary gift.

As soon as Mo Liufeng and Murong Xue entered the banquet hall, they attracted the attention of many people.

The lights in the hall were sparkling, and the decorations of various crystals were gorgeous and dazzling. Men and women in exquisite clothes were moving in the hall with elegant gestures. Some were whispering with each other while the others were pressing their lips and smiling. Everyone there looked strikingly elegant.

It was indeed a first-class banquet in the capital, and the demeanor of people inside made one feel comfortable.

Suddenly, Murong Xue's eyes narrowed. She saw many familiar people inside. The banquet really gathered all the famous people in the capital. She saw Shangguan Mo, Shangguan Lin, Bai Xueli, Chu Yisen, and Zhang Linli, and their families, as well as Qin Mengya and Chu Lingling who both had a grudge against her before. And Fang Shihua, who had so many emotional entanglements with her in her previous life, also came.

Mo Liufeng seemed to notice the strangeness of Murong Xue, so he turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Xue, what's wrong?"

Murong Xue shook her head and showed a relieved smile. "Nothing. I just met a lot of acquaintances."

Mo Liufeng looked at where Murong Xue was watching and found Shangguan Mo and the others. His eyes flashed and he said, "Grandpa is there. Let's go!"

"Grandpa Mo!" Murong Xue held Mo Liufeng's arm and walked to Grandpa Mo.

"Xue, come. Come here!" Mo Changfeng's smile got wider when he saw Murong Xue, especially when she came in holding his grandson's arm.

Murong Xue walked over and gave him good wishes with a smile, "I wish Grandpa Mo a happy birthday. You may shine forever like the sun and the moon. I hope you can always stay young and healthy. Wish you a wealthy life. I hope you can be happy forever."

"Ha-ha, great!" Mo Changfeng laughed heartily. "Come on, Xue. Let me introduce you. These two are my friends. This is the Old Master of the Chu Family, and this is the Old Master of the Qin Family!"

Just now, Murong Xue saw the two old men who were no less imposing than Grandpa Mo, but she didn't know their identity, and it was not appropriate for her to speak casually as a junior. "Mr. Chu, Mr. Qin, this is the first time we meet. Please excuse me for doing anything improper!" Murong Xue bowed slightly and gave them a salute.

"Old Mo, how did you meet such a beautiful girl? She's really good!" Mr. Qin said in a flat tone, and he was very satisfied with how Murong Xue called them.

Although Murong Xue was not from the Families in the capital, she was still a daughter of a wealthy family in A province. She would not make a fool of herself as she knew the proper etiquette. She also needed to pay special attention to the address. When confronted with unfamiliar elders, she would be considered a little rude if she directly addressed them as Grandpa Chu and Grandpa Qin.

"Have you forgotten Grandpa Chu?" Mr. Chu said.

Murong Xue smiled generously, "How come? My grandfather still mentions you so often!"

"Old Chu, don't try to pretend to be close to my girl. Go away." Mo Changfeng said.

"Why did Xue become your girl?" Mr. Chu said with dissatisfaction.

Mr. Qin had a strange look in his eyes when his two friends were fighting because of a girl, and he couldn't help but look at Murong Xue.

Murong Xue only stood quietly by the side. There was a faint smile on her face. She looked so young, but she emanated an aura that didn't match her young appearance. When she was standing there, people couldn't help but look at her. She was indeed a remarkable young woman. Mr. Qin wondered what her family was.

After a while, Mr. Mo and Mr. Chu had already quarreled with each other for quite a while. Finally, Mo Liufeng interrupted the dispute between the two.

At this time, Murong Xue was holding a jade box and handed it to Mo Changfeng, "Grandpa Mo, this is for you. I hope you like it!"

Mo Changfeng took the gift box and didn't put it down. He just held it in his hand. The servant behind him looked at him with a bit of surprise, but he soon concealed it.

Mr. Chu noticed it, too. He said, "What kind of treasure does Xue send you? Old Mo, open it up and let us take a look!" He was a little curious about the gift since Mo Changfeng was holding it in his hand so seriously. No matter how much Mo Changfeng valued Murong Xue, there was no need to hold the gift in hand all the time.

Mr. Qin also looked at the jade box that Mo Changfeng was holding with a little interest. It was packed in a jade box. The contents inside should not be simple. But could such a girl take out some superb treasures? But when he saw the imperial jade on Murong Xue's neck, he didn't think that it was impossible. But he couldn't remember any descendant of the aristocratic family in the capital like Murong Xue.
