He Lengqian's gaze swept over her, his imposing presence intimidating Mu Qingqing, who instinctively cried out, "It wasn't me, it really wasn't me..."
Snap!
Mu Tianhua raised his hand and slapped Mu Qingqing across the face, knocking her to the ground. He angrily pointed at her nose and cursed, "Mu Qingqing! How could you do such a thing! You have disappointed me so much!"
"No, Dad, let me explain." Mu Qingqing covered her face, and the tears she had been holding back suddenly welled up in her eyes. She couldn't understand why things had turned out this way.
It should be Mu Chuchu who's embarrassed today! It should be her who's ruined!
But why is it that she's the one who's unlucky now?
Mu Qingqing's body convulsed and trembled. She collapsed miserably to the ground and looked at He Lengqian.
It's all because of He Lengqian.
Why? Why is Mu Chuchu so lucky to have such a perfect man protecting her?
If it weren't for He Lengqian, Mu Chuchu would be finished by now.
Mu Qingqing clenched her fists so tightly that her nails dug deep into her palms, creating several crescent-shaped wounds.
The others looked at He Lengqian, then at Mu Chuchu, then at Cheng Yingxi and Mu Qingqing, who had just gone to great lengths to lure them into the room, and quickly understood what was going on.
"Mu Qingqing is hilarious, she's hoisted herself by her own petard."
"I never imagined such a beautiful girl could be so malicious."
"Luckily, Mr. He arrived in time, otherwise Mu Chuchu would be the one in trouble now."
At this point, everyone felt that Mu Chuchu was incredibly lucky. Being beautiful allowed her to do whatever she wanted, and even Mr. He had taken a liking to her.
Many of the other wealthy heiresses who had originally planned to watch the spectacle turn into green with envy, their sourness becoming unbearable.
However, what made these heiresses even more envious was yet to come.
Mu Chuchu, who was fast asleep, seemed to be disturbed by the noise of everyone talking. She whimpered and tugged at He Lengqian's hand, "Uncle He, it's too noisy..."
Everyone's hearts tightened, and then they received a sharp glare from He Lengqian.
They all immediately shut their mouths, trembling with fear, not daring to utter a single word.
He Lengqian was still not satisfied, so he picked up Princess Mu Chuchu and strode outside.
The bustling crowd automatically parted to make way, and no one dared to look He Lengqian in the eye, for fear of being caught in the crossfire of his anger.
"The Cheng family must give Chuchu an explanation for what happened today," He Lengqian said to Old Madam Cheng before leaving.
He Lengqian's tone was soft, yet it concealed a power that made it impossible for anyone to refuse.
"Yes, Mr. He, rest assured, our Cheng family will definitely not let Miss Mu suffer in vain, and we will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation." After saying this, a bead of cold sweat appeared on the forehead of Old Madam Cheng's forehead.
When Mu Tianhua saw He Lengqian carrying Mu Chuchu away, he couldn't even get a word in edgewise, let alone ask how Mu Chuchu was doing.
Seeing He Lengqian leave with Mu Chuchu so naturally in his arms, Mu Tianhua felt a lump in his throat and was extremely frustrated.
Isn't Chu Chu his daughter? How could Mr. He take his daughter away without even saying goodbye?
But knowing that the other party was He Lengqian, Mu Tianhua didn't dare to say anything more and instead gave Mu Qingqing a cold look.
“Honey, I think there must be some misunderstanding here…” Wen Min said, trying to hug Mu Tianhua’s arm.
