A waiter respectfully walked up to them and led the way. As elegant music played in the background, a beautiful couple moved closer towards Mu Chuqing.

A familiar scent passed by her, and Mu Chuqing’s pupils flashed for a moment as she slightly tilted her head towards the window.

To prevent meeting whom she shouldn’t meet, her body also unconsciously shifted slightly.

However, her elbow accidentally hit the wine glass by her side. Mu Chuqing’s quick reflex action helped her grab the glass, but some wine still spilled onto her clothes.

Her movements were rather sudden, shocking Su Yuan sitting across her.

Su Yuan reached out and clenched Mu Chuqing’s hand. Her face was filled with worry.

“Chu Qing, are you all right?”

Mu Chuqing shook her head and managed to squeeze a struggling smile.

“I’m all right. I’ll go to the washroom!”

“I’ll come along!”

“No need!”

Mu Chuqing reached out to press Su Yuan’s hand. When she picked up her bag and stood up, with a glance, she saw Chang Chu sitting in the corner seat, who was now looking at Mu Chuqing with a face of surprise.

Mu Chuqing’s eyebrows furrowed, and a wave of disgust gushed up in her heart.

Mu Chuqing’s eyes moved, and she glanced at the man’s head, who was facing away from her. She turned around and headed to the washroom.

Mu Chuqing stood in front of the basin, wiping the wine stains on her clothes with a damp handkerchief.

The moment she returned to the country, she saw the person she wanted to avoid the most. This twisted fate sure is stubborn.

“Chu Qing? Where have you been all these years?”

A voice filled with traces of suspicion and curiosity laced in mockery rang out from behind Mu Chuqing.

Mu Chuqing’s hand stopped, and her eyebrows furrowed deeply. She looked up and glanced at the woman standing behind her through the mirror.

Her figure was slender, and her face was delicate and innocent.

Mu Chuqing narrowed her eyes. She lowered her head and continued to wipe the wine stains.

Chang Chu scoffed from behind her and sauntered to the basin next to Mu Chuqing.

“Chuqing, do you really have nothing to say to me?”

Mu Chuqing rinsed her handkerchief and wrung it dry a couple of times.

“Sorry, I don’t know how to speak to animals!”

Mu Chuqing spat with fury. She made it clear from the beginning that she didn’t plan on acting before this despicable woman.

Chang Chu’s face turned bitter, but it was only for a brief moment. She lowered her head, pulling out something from her bag, and handed it to Mu Chuqing.

Mu Chuqing turned, and her eyes instantly narrowed.

Chang Chu spoke with a smug smile, “This is the invitation for my engagement banquet next week with Chen. I welcome you to join us!”

Mu Chuqing lifted her eyes and looked at her. A look of amusement flashed across her eyes.

“Chang Chu, you sure are shameless!”

However, Chang Chu immediately showed an innocent look.

“Chu Qing, look at what you’re saying. It would be a different matter before if I couldn’t find you, but since we already met today, how could I not invite you! During our university days, we were so close. Oh, and Su Yuan. The three of us were the three belles of the university back then!”

Mu Chuqing heard her words, but she curled her lips in a smile. “We were so close that you found your way to climb onto my husband’s bed?”

Chang Chu’s smile froze, and she looked at Mu Chuqing with hatred filled eyes.

“Mu Chuqing, don’t speak as if you were so innocent and upright. Chen and I are truly in love…”

Mu Chuqing scoffed with a “tsk” and pulled the invitation from Chang Chu’s hands.

She said with annoyance, “I don’t want to continue wasting my breath on you. This invitation, I’ll accept it!”

After she finished speaking, Mu Chuqing ignored Chang Chu’s face full of panic and hatred and walked out of the washroom.
