It wasn't a picture of his sitting on the sofa . It was the picture where he was in the restaurant . But instead of eating, he had a watch with a silver chain . It seemed like he was swinging it .
It didn't look like a painting but a photo taken by camera .
"This is…" Jason's voice trailed off . He didn't expect this .
Mu Lan smirked . "You love to hypnotize people . Don't you Jason? This is my reward for you for the other day . " He tried to hypnotize her on their first encounter .
Jason smirked as well, showing his real face . "So you knew from the very beginning and you didn't let it show through your body language . You are smart . "
"Thanks for the complement . " Mu Lan smiled .
Jason's eyes began sharp . "So you made me sit on the sofa for no reason . "
"It's the punishment for deceiving me . Next time, I won't be this nice . But I hope we will never see each other again . Have a nice day . " Mu Lan took her Ruby Rose cocktail and got closer to Qi Ying .
Mu Lan planned to encounter Jason and wanted to end the whole drama he crated . Since it was nothing to do with her, she didn't want to cause more problem for Mu Liang . They had already too much to handle before engagement . Since Mu Liang said that he would let Mu Feng deal with it, she would leave it that way .
"What were you talking about? You don't look like that you like him . " Qi Ying was totally oblivious of the whole thing . She was sitting a far from them .
"I don't . Let's leave . I'm tired . " Mu Lan didn't want to stay here any longer .
"Sure . " Qi Ying finished her drink and they were about to leave .
"Oh my, isn't it Qi Ying from Qi Family . " A voice made the girls halted on the track .
Qi Ying and Mu Lan both turned around and saw five girls were walking towards them .
"It has been awhile, Ying . It's nice to see you again . " The red haired girl said .
"Miss Margaret, indeed it has been a while . Hope you are doing well . " Qi Ying politely said .
Margaret sneered . "It looks like you have gotten skinner . Are you eating well? Since you were kicked out of the Qi Family, it must have been hard for you . "
The other four girls giggled beside her .
Mu Lan slightly frowned .
Qi Ying gave a polite smile and said, "I'm fine . Thank you for your concern though it's not needed . I heard that your engagement with my brother has been postponed . Is everything alright?"
Margaret's face slightly turned red . It's obvious that she didn't like this topic . "Since you were kicked out of the house, Yang and Qi Family have nothing to do with you . "
Qi Ying never had to go through such humiliation causing by others when she was still in Qi Family . But she learned to talk back against her father since her marriage was decided with the Major of Chinese military . Moreover, she got friends like Mu Lan Yan Su and Xue Lin . She learnt a lot from them . So dealing with Margaret wasn't that bad . All she had to do was smiling like a graceful lady and speak the truth .
Qi Ying answered . "You are mistaken . Though I left home, by blood, I'm still connected to my family . You can break a marriage relationship with law, but you cannot break sibling relationship or parents-daughters relationship even if you cut ties with them . "
Margaret narrowed her eyes . "You are getting too cocky these days . Is this what your ex-family taught you? Is it because you have some artist friend that you became so low?" She eyes drifted towards Mu Lan .
'So her real target is me . What did I do to make them angry?' Mu Lan thought .
Margaret asked Mu Lan, "Don't you know how to introduce yourself? Are you dumb?"
Mu Lan smiled beautifully and replied, "I know how to introduce myself . But I only do that in front of human beings . I can't see one right now . "
Margaret burst into anger . "What did you say? You dared to insult me?"
Other customers began to glance at them and began whispering . Since they didn't know Mu Lan and her background, they looked at her with hostility .
Mu Lan brushed Margaret off . "Haha, I think you are mistaken . Animals don't feel insulted . If you have nothing to do but disturbing other, then do it with your fellow friends . We are busy . " She turned towards her friend and said, "Xiao Ying, let's go . "
The third girl blocked the way to stop Mu Lan to go out .
Margaret said from behind, "Did you think you can leave just like that after insulting us? Do you know from which families we are?"
