Xie Nian looked at Ruan Mu inquiringly. What should they do now?

It was definitely too late to escape. They might even be caught on the spot.

Ruan Mu smiled. Only now did she know to panic. She had been baring her fangs and brandishing her claws just now.

“May I know which family you are from? Can you come out and let us take a look? Aren’t you ashamed to do this?”

There was an intense banging on the door one after another. It was no wonder that the old master of the Yu family came from the army. He was still so strong despite being past fifty.

Xie Nian fiercely grabbed Ruan Mu, who was about to open the door, and threatened, “Ruan Mu, if you dare to open the door, I’ll sue you for molesting me.”

“Molest? Ms. Xie seems to have forgotten her reputation. If I were to say that Ms. Xie molested me instead, others would believe me too.”

“Shameless. I would rather look for a male prostitute than look for you… Oh.”

Ruan Mu’s face magnified countless times in front of her eyes. His countenance always gave Xie Nian a very familiar feeling. She couldn’t recall where she had seen him before, or maybe it was at a certain instant in the past when the two of them brushed past each other.

“Ms. Xie, you have to be more serious when kissing. Don’t think about other men.”

Ruan Mu licked his lips gently with a look of satisfaction, as if he had just tasted the most delicious thing in the world.

Pa!

Xie Nian leaned against the wall and panted softly. The corners of her eyes were red, and sparkling water droplets hung from her full lips. Her fair skin was faintly pink as she looked at Ruan Mu begrudgingly.

The rumors were indeed true. This eldest daughter of the Xie family was still as dazzling as ever after six years.

However, her hand had quite a strength. Ruan Mu licked the spot where he had been slapped and felt a burning pain.

There seemed to be no more noise outside the door. Perhaps it was because they hadn’t heard any response and determined that there was no one in the room, Xie Nian thought with uncertainty. Her slender fingers held the door handle and she slowly opened the door. The door was then suppressed by a heavy weight, causing the lock core to return into the lock handle.

“If you don’t want to be observed like a monkey again, it’s best that you don’t do anything. Leave the matter to me.”

At that moment, Ruan Mu was like the King of Hell from the ninth palace hall, who killed every god and devil he encountered. Cold air exuded from his entire body. His eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth pursed slightly. Such a Ruan Mu made others tremble with fear. As expected of the Cold-Faced King of Hell in Jiang Capital.

“We know that you are in the room. Don’t think that I won’t know who you are just because you are hiding behind the door.” Then, they heard Old Master Yu say, “Go and ask for the list of guests from the Xie family. Look through them one by one. I don’t believe that your names aren’t on it.”

At that moment, the door suddenly opened from the inside. Ruan Mu walked out coldly and gently closed the door.

“I wonder what Old Master Yu wants to say to me?”

Old Master Yu’s words were stuck in his throat. He didn’t think that the person here was actually Ruan Mu. They couldn’t afford to provoke a demon like this. Was the Yu family really out of luck?

There was already the Zhou family eyeing them menacingly from the side. If the Ruan family got involved, it was probably not something the Yu family could deal with now.

All of a sudden, the old master of the Yu Family seemed to have aged by a few years. If anyone from the Yu Family was useful, he wouldn’t have to learn such women’s matters.

“Oh, so it’s the young master of the Ruan family. I’m sorry to have disturbed you. Please don’t take offense.”

Ruan Mu waved his hand and said casually, “Old Master Yu is too polite. You didn’t disturb me at all, but the person beside me was frightened by your voice.”

What did he mean by this? Did he want him, the head of the Yu Family, to apologize to his lover who did not even dare to show her face? Old Master Yu’s face was red. He had never suffered such a humiliation.

His clenched fists creaked from his grip, before slowly loosening. He clenched and loosened his grip again. This went on and on before he finally sighed and said, “I apologize to this lady. Please don’t take offense.”

“Then I won’t disturb your argument. However, I’ve been resting in this room since the beginning. I’ve heard everything that I shouldn’t have heard and should have heard, but I won’t say it out loud.

It’s just that this person in the room is someone who is greedy for money. She even dared to hit me just now. I can’t guarantee what will happen in the future.”

Ruan Mu’s smile didn’t reach his eyes. It seemed like he had said everything, but also seemed like he hadn’t said anything at all.

However, Old Master Yu seemed defeated. He waved his hand and said, “I’m old, I’m old. This is now the world of you youngsters. I can’t control the Yu family anymore. My children and grandchildren will have their own fate. It all depends on their own luck.”

When the Yu Family’s eldest son heard what his father said, his eyes were filled with horror.. What did his father mean by this? Was he not planning to continue with today’s matter?
