Bai Yueniang was surprised, but her face remained calm, and a smile curved her lips: "Sister Feifei, so Young Master Qi bullied you? Oh dear, with Sister Mo here, how could I let you suffer?"

"..." Lin Feifei felt like she had swallowed a bitter pill, stomped her foot, and turned to leave.

Shangguan Yichen's cold eyes hardened further: "Young Master Qi, my family does not entertain outside men..."

"..." Qi Yuanwei was caught in a dilemma. He opened his mouth but found himself speechless.

"Mother, you've invited Brother Qi here?"

With a series of thuds, a small figure rushed forward. Who else could it be but Bai Zimo?

Everyone: "..."

Qi Yuanwei: "..."

No, how did I suddenly become an older brother?

Mo Qingcheng chuckled: "Mo Mo, your older brother came to see you, but he was in a hurry, so he can only give you some money first..."

"Oh... Brother Qi, you're such a good person!" Bai Zimo threw herself into Qi Yuanwei's arms and secretly winked.

Qi Yuanwei's eye twitched violently. He instantly understood. He, the dignified young master of the Qi family, actually had to… rise to power through a little brat? His situation was so miserable; there was no one else like him in the young master's circle…

Shangguan Yichen's icy face was now covered with another layer of frost, and the chill within three feet was penetrating to the bone.

But then, Shangguan Yunxi and Mu Wanqing stepped forward, each grabbing one of Shangguan Yichen's sleeves, one cunning and the other lively.

"Hey, big brother, don't always have that stern face, or you'll scare your wife away!"

"Yeah, big brother, you have a really handsome smile. A fool wouldn't take the money!"

The two girls chattered back and forth, while Shangguan Yichen's face grew increasingly cold. Two treacherous sisters—whoever likes them, take them away quickly…

Shangguan Yunxi and Mu Wanqing exchanged a knowing smile. Their eldest brother was such an old-fashioned person. It was just a meal. Their mother was incredibly clever and wouldn't let them get away with it.

They're all talk and no action!

Shangguan Yichen observed the two little girls' subtle actions. He couldn't hit them, he couldn't scold them, it was truly...

Shangguan Yichen was speechless, his little face dark, and he walked into the courtyard with his two little tails trailing behind him. That annoying figure blocked his view, making him even more irritated.

Shangguan Yunxi and Mu Wanqing were chattering away, giving Shangguan Yichen a headache. Whose little brats are they? Take them away right now!

Bai Yueniang followed behind the crowd with a look of schadenfreude in her eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

As they walked, Bai Ziming somehow ended up snuggling into Qi Yuanwei's arms.

The little guy twisted and turned, a triumphant smile spreading across his face.

Mo Qingcheng's eyelids twitched: "Bai Zimo..."

“Mother, you are my own mother, I’m afraid you’ll get tired…” Bai Zimo tilted his head and said in a serious tone.

"puff!"

"Ha ha!"

"Cough cough..."

Everyone burst out laughing. Who knew such a crazy trick could be done?

Liu Cuihua and Third Madam were startled. Why was the county magistrate here? Had Madam committed some offense?

That's impossible...

Mo Qingcheng smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, Third Madam, please serve more good dishes. Young Master Qi has worked hard today..."

"..." Liu Cuihua and Third Grandma were stunned on the spot. Young Master Qi?

"Oh, oh..." Liu Cuihua stammered, nodded, and turned to pull Third Grandma into the kitchen.

Grandma San, panting, was dragged into the kitchen. She glared angrily at Liu Cuihua: "Cuihua, you already have a grandson, and you're still so impulsive?"

“My dear Third Madam, that’s the county magistrate. Whatever you call him, Madam, it doesn’t matter. We’re just commoners, how can we afford to offend him? It’s better to avoid trouble and not cause any problems for Madam Mo…”

“Cuihua, Third Grandma didn’t mean anything by it…” Third Grandma’s eyes flickered slightly.

Liu Cuihua's smile vanished instantly: "Third Grandma, we've been neighbors for so many years, don't treat others like fools..."

"you……"
