The two embraced like that, and to outsiders, they appeared to be a loving couple, the envy of many.
But only Mu Xiaocheng and Ji Huaishen knew that they were like two travelers walking in the cold winter wind, drawing warmth from each other at this moment.
They desperately wanted to find comfort and warmth from the other person, and in turn, they wanted to share that warmth with them.
Ji Huaishen knew that although his Mu Mu had not truly accepted him yet, and had not fully opened her heart to him.
However, the fact that she can confide her grievances to him and act coquettishly towards him means that she is slowly accepting him.
At this moment, Ji Huaishen was happy.
He gently stroked her hair again and again, from top to bottom, languidly and softly.
Perhaps Mu Xiaocheng was in a better mood, because she nudged him and said, "You can let go of me now."
Her voice was still a little muffled. Although she wasn't crying, it was still heartbreaking to hear.
Ji Huaishen obediently released her, his brows furrowing slightly as he feigned anger: "What? You're just using her and then throwing her away?"
His tone was playful, but his expression was pitiful and aggrieved.
Mu Xiaocheng's lips twitched. She's pretending again!
She smirked and muttered under her breath, "Drama queen."
After saying that, he walked towards the main venue.
It was as if nothing had ever happened.
She didn't care about Qi Feiwan's surveillance investigation results.
Because, Ji Huaishen said, he was there.
Ji Huaishen immediately followed, walking lazily alongside her. Around them, many people cast various glances at them.
There was envy, there was jealousy, but most of all, there was curiosity.
Ji Huaishen didn't care about any of that; his attention was entirely focused on the little guy beside him.
Mu Xiaocheng is still that radiant, energetic, and exquisite little fairy.
She slightly raised her chin, exuding confidence and beauty.
And beside her was Ji Huaishen, handsome and noble.
Even she herself didn't realize how well-matched and pleasing to the eye they were when they walked together.
After a moment, she lowered her eyes and said softly, "Ji Huaishen, it feels pretty good to have you here."
Ji Huaishen's tall frame froze, his pupils gleaming with shock.
No, it should be a surprise.
She finally stopped just saying thank you to him.
Mr. Ji's lips slowly curved upwards, forming a very attractive shape.
His Mumu was very well-behaved today.

Monitoring room.
Qi Nanwei's face grew increasingly dark as he watched the surveillance footage.
The surveillance footage showed no evidence of Mu Xiaocheng hitting Fei Wan.
Mu Xiaocheng was very clever; she used her skirt to cover the two people's hands hanging down.
Moreover, even if there is a picture of her holding Fei Wan's hand, it cannot be used as evidence.
Because if she doesn't admit it, there's nothing you can do to her.
Shang Qi knew this would be the outcome from the start. He stood straight at the door, glanced at the Qi family father and daughter whose faces were dark and ugly, and said in a calm voice: "Gentlemen, you have seen the surveillance footage. Shouldn't you give our master and madam an explanation? Our master said that the madam cannot have suffered injustice for nothing."
"So, Mr. Qi, you need to come up with a plan."
Qi Nan gritted his teeth and looked at Qi Feiwan beside him.
Qi Feiwan's face was also very pale, but she knew her limits and could not cause trouble here, nor could she confront Ji Huaishen head-on.
She didn't want to be trending on Weibo.
Qi Nanwei also understood his daughter's temperament; this time, they had to swallow their pride and bear the loss silently.
He frowned and said with some helplessness, "We apologize."
