"Ting'er," holding Mu Ting'er's hand tightly, the man said affectionately, "You gave yourself to me a month ago, and I swore that I would marry you. But this loser and I were betrothed to each other since childhood, and it was the Emperor who personally issued the decree. It will take time for him to take back his words, but believe me, you will be my wife soon."

The scene before her deeply hurt Mu Ruyue. She stared at Mu Ting'er with red eyes and said hatefully: "Mu Ting'er, you are just the adopted daughter of my Mu family. I am the real lady here! I hope you can recognize your identity!"

“Bang!”

But as soon as she finished speaking, she was slapped hard in the face.

Mu Ruyue's body trembled suddenly. She covered her painful cheek, turned her head stiffly, and looked at the middle-aged man with a livid face beside her in disbelief: "Dad, why are you..."

"How dare you! Who allowed you to talk to Ting'er like that?" The middle-aged man's face was cold, as if the person in front of him was not his biological daughter, but just a maid who could be abused at will.

“Dad, I am your daughter,” Mu Ruyue said with a choked voice and tears in her eyes, “She is just an adopted daughter, why are you…”

"Daughter?" The middle-aged man sneered, "Having a daughter like you is a shame in my life! Even though Ting'er is an adopted daughter, she is extremely talented. She is my pride! Do you think you are qualified to be worthy of the prince of King Jing? Let me tell you clearly, I was the one who arranged their relationship. Otherwise, why do you think no one came here?"

Like a bolt from the blue, Mu Ruyue's body trembled a few times. She bit her lip and looked at the person who was connected to her by blood.

"Sister Ting'er, are you okay?"

At this moment, her half-sister Mu Yixue seemed not to see her and walked straight to Mu Ting'er, whose face was covered with tears.

"Sister Ting'er, don't worry. Xue'er and Daddy will protect you and won't let someone snatch your husband away from you," Mu Yixue smiled cutely. She turned her head and looked at Mu Ruyue with disgust and contempt in her eyes. "Besides, in the Mu family, I, Mu Yixue, only have one sister, Mu Ting'er. This kind of loser is not worthy of being my sister. I really don't understand why mother gave birth to such a loser. She is not qualified to be the daughter of the Mu family at all!"

"Dad, Xue'er..."

Mu Ting'er looked at the two of them with gratitude. At this moment, no one noticed the sneer on her lips.

Mu Ruyue, I have long vowed to take everything from you! After all, you are the legitimate daughter of the Mu family, and I am just an adopted daughter.

However, the adopted daughter who you initially did not take seriously has now climbed over your head. All this is because you are a waste who is unable to practice!

But you would never have imagined that what made you a waste was the poison I put in your bowl before the talent test when you were five years old, and no one would have known that a four-year-old child would be so scheming.

Mu Ruyue's heart gradually turned cold. She looked at this happy family of three and suddenly realized that she was just an outsider. They were the real family...

"Ha ha!"

Suddenly, she burst into laughter, and as she laughed, she ran hard into a tree beside her.

The sudden change scared everyone. Mu Ting'er's face changed drastically. She didn't want to force this woman to death. If she died, wouldn't it be too boring?

However, when she was about to take action to stop him, the middle-aged man raised his arm to block him.
