Only then did Tang Miao realize that she had been misunderstanding everything all along...

However, he didn't react much. After all, regardless of whether it was true or not, given Mu Nujiao's harsh words that day, he didn't dare to provoke her.

"What a spineless wretch, ruining himself like this over a woman." Just as the three entered the Mu Family, a curse came from behind the flowerbed.

"Mu Hua, I came to your Mu Family for Mu Nuxin. You and the old man promised me the same thing, which is why I've been working like a slave for you all these years. But in the end, just because Dongfang Lie is a substitute for the National Team, you're betrothing Mu Nuxin to him? What do you take me for!" A young man then said, seemingly enraged.

Tang Miao glanced at the area and asked in confusion, "What's going on here?"

Mu Nujiao sighed softly, "This person is called Qi Shan. He was once a talented scholar in the capital, and was considered a strong person on par with Mu Ningxue. He was nominated by the National Academy, but ultimately failed to be selected. He and you are almost the same; he came from humble beginnings in a grassroots school and relied on his own strength to climb up to the capital and enter the Mu Family. He is exceptionally intelligent and courageous..."

Tang Miao looked at Dongfang Lie and then said, "You don't seem to have any reaction?"

"I'm already the victor, why should I react?" Dongfang Lie said with a smile, seemingly unconcerned.

Now that he's engaged, Mu Nuxin is his. What's the point of caring about her former suitors?

Tang Miao didn't take it seriously. After all... if he remembered correctly, Mu Nuxin didn't end up with Dongfang Lie.

However, she was just Mu Nujiao's cousin, and Tang Miao had absolutely no interest in her affairs.

The young man seemed to have heard something else, then launched into a rebuttal, and finally stumbled off to find Mu Nuxin to get some answers...

At this moment, Mu Hua also walked over. Seeing Mu Nujiao with Tang Miao, he was somewhat displeased. Just as he was about to reprimand her, he suddenly paused and said, "He... he's Tang Miao?"

Mu Nujiao nodded and then replied, "That's right, didn't I say he's my boyfriend?"

"Hello, I am Mu Nujiao's brother. Welcome. Please proceed to the main hall..." Mu Hua's demeanor was completely different from when he was reprimanding the young man.

Then, he led Tang Miao, Mu Nujiao, and Dongfang Lie into the main hall.

At Mu Nujiao's introduction, the heads of the Dongfang Family and Mu Family both stood up to show goodwill.

Although the Tang Clan is currently just a small clan or sect, with two Monarch Level Demon Beast holding sway over it... and considering the damage to the coastline and the need for major construction in Fei Niao City, Tang Miao is someone they need to curry favor with.

He also gave Mu Nujiao face and was very polite to the old man of the Mu Family.

"Tang Miao?"

Just as he was bragging to the old patriarch Mu, he suddenly heard a familiar shout.

Then, he turned around and was surprised to find that the person who called him was Dongfang Hui!

What are you doing here?

Because she achieved her current status solely through her own efforts, Dongfang Hui had just been recalled to the family, was also brought here.

However, she never expected to run into this national celebrity here.

"I'm here as a guest. But what are you doing here?" Tang Miao remembered that this woman didn't have a good relationship with his family.

"Oh... I was recently summoned back by my family. My cousin is on a blind date today, so I came along to check it out," Dongfang Hui said.

"You've become more and more alluring in the years I haven't seen you." Tang Miao looked Dongfang Hui up and down, and had to admit, this girl was becoming more and more tempting.

She's simply a stunningly beautiful enchantress!

"Go away... how can you still be so shameless..." Dongfang Hui said with some disgust.

Upon hearing her words, an elder from the Dongfang Family rebuked her, "Hui'er, don't be so presumptuous!"

"Um, sir, we're old acquaintances, there's no need for this." Tang Miao hurriedly said before Dongfang Hui could speak.

The elder finally breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, Dongfang Hui was one of the best among the younger generation. Most importantly, she had hardly ever used the family's resources...

Moreover, the main reason she dared to speak so casually here was because she was invited back by the head of the Dongfang Family.

Dongfang Hui wasn't stupid. Looking at the elder who had reprimanded her and then at how politely everyone treated Tang Miao, she understood.

This lecherous scoundrel is no longer the unruly country bumpkin he once was...

She knew something about Tang Miao's deeds, although he had never paid attention to her.

Mu Nujiao walked over at this moment, put her arm around Tang Miao's arm, and said, "Aren't you going to introduce me?"

Watching his beloved concubine assert her dominance, Tang Miao felt, for the first time, that Mu Nujiao loved him...

It wasn't that he lacked confidence, it's just that this woman had always acted unassuming and uncompetitive... He was starting to wonder if he was being completely ignored.

But now, because of Dongfang Hui, Mu Nujiao has actually come to assert her dominance!

Tang Miao smiled and introduced, "Oh... her name is Dongfang Hui, she's my high school classmate."

"Is this your girlfriend?" Dongfang Hui asked in a low voice, sizing up Mu Nujiao.

"That's right."

"Isn't your girlfriend that woman named Mu Ningxue?" Dongfang Hui asked again.

"Fuck you..."

Tang Miao was immediately speechless! Why did this damn woman cause trouble the moment they met??

Similarly, Mu Nujiao's expression was also rather unpleasant!

After all, this is the Mu Family... and Tang Miao is here now as his "boyfriend".

"We're just friends, Jiaojiao is my girlfriend," Tang Miao quickly explained before Mu Nujiao get angry.

"Cousin, I have something I'd like to ask you. Please come with me for a moment."

Dongfang Lie also hurriedly walked over, said a few words, and then quickly pulled away his troublemaking cousin.

After Tang Miao breathed a sigh of relief, she looked at Mu Nujiao and whispered, "Jiaojiao, I promise, we really are just classmates, there's nothing else between us. Besides, this stupid woman has a screw loose..."

The head of the Dongfang Family was actually quite interested in the interaction between Tang Miao and Dongfang Hui. In fact, if possible, he wouldn't mind if Dongfang Hui became his "girlfriend"!

The head of the Mu Family was actually aware of Tang Miao and Mu Ningxue's situation. But did it matter? Children of noble families always had to make sacrifices for certain things.

Although the Tang Clan is currently just a clan, everyone knows that in the future, the Tang Clan will definitely become a new aristocratic family in Huaxia. And because of this, there's nothing wrong with them offering women as gifts. As long as they can establish a connection, that's a good thing!

The two family heads each had their own thoughts, while Tang Miao kept trying to cheer Mu Nujiao up. He was aware of his current position, but he also knew that if he really hurt his Beloved Consort, it would be something he would regret for the rest of his life.

Since there wasn't enough space here, Tang Miao took Mu Nujiao and left, finding a room where he sincerely continued to apologize...

No one else said anything about his departure; everything continued as normal, but everyone's thoughts were different...
