From the Riding Arena to the city, she remained silent all the way. She thought Mu Tongzi would comfort her, but to her surprise, he didn't say a word the entire time, wearing a cold expression as if lost in his own thoughts, making her feel as if she were blocked out of his world.
Sometimes when she was near him, despite being so close, she felt his heart was very far away. No matter how hard she tried to get closer, there seemed to be an invisible barrier between them.
She ultimately couldn't figure out what he was thinking. It seemed she had never stepped into his world; it wasn't that she wasn't trying hard enough, but rather that he wouldn't let her in.
Falling in love with such a man was destined to make a woman feel exhausted and heartbroken.
But there was nothing she could do; after all, she had fallen for this cold-hearted man.
After winning against Yue Qingchen, Yin Xiyin was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. Kang Yiming looked at her joyful demeanor and couldn't bear to dampen her spirits.
"Yinyin, why do you dislike Yue Qingchen so much? Did she offend you?" It was puzzling how such a small matter could make her so happy; there must be some deep-seated resentment.
"She didn't offend me, but she shouldn't have provoked Qiqi. Insulting Qiqi is like insulting me!"
"She's too arrogant. Back when we were in the compound, I often saw her visiting the Mu Family. I heard that her biological father died saving Mu Shao, and ever since her adoptive parents took her in, she's been in contact with the Mu Family. She has won the favor of the elders in the Mu Family, and Mother Mu even treats her like a future daughter-in-law, so she's well taken care of in the circle."
Recalling past events, Kang Yiming couldn't help but sigh lightly. "Originally, this was something that would make other kids envious and resentful, but she just doesn't know how to be low-key. There are quite a few people in the circle who can't stand her."
"That's still normal. What leaves me speechless is that on the surface she appears dignified and ladylike, yet behind the scenes she's quite insidious."
"Uh... Listening to you say this doesn't seem exaggerated; Yue Qingchen really is different from how she appears."
It was just like that day at the airport, when she humiliated Qiqi without mercy, completely disregarding the decorum expected of a young lady. It was truly excessive.
"So, both Dongliang and I feel that if Mu Shao were to be with her, it would be a waste of talent."
"Alright, alright, Qiqi is still here! She came all the way to celebrate my birthday; I don't want to make things difficult for her. We're not afraid of Yue Qingchen, but if she redirects her anger towards Qiqi, that would be bad."
"That's true. Today is your birthday; let's celebrate properly and not get into conflicts with unrelated people!"
Green Qi, who had been walking alongside them, remained silent. Being a third wheel in front of the affectionate couple was not a wise choice. Although she had deliberately kept a considerable distance from them, she still heard their conversation.
To avoid continuing as a third wheel that evening, she finally couldn't help but speak up: "I think you and Kang Shao should celebrate properly. I won't tag along as a third wheel; my hand still hurts. After dinner, I'll head back to the hotel to rest."
"Oh, okay!"
Yin Xiyin was simple-minded yet perceptive; she would never force her friend into an awkward situation.
The gathering place was located at No. 8 Mansion in the center of Beijing City, where a lake connected to green grasslands, and a light gray vintage building lay nestled in one corner. From a distance, surrounded by towering skyscrapers, this corner seemed like an oasis by the water.
