"Shut up!"
Before Ting Lan could finish her words, she was interrupted by Rong Zhennan. Watching Rong Zhennan slowly walk towards them, Ting Lan was frightened but at the same time didn't dare to say a word.
She definitely wouldn't go against the old gramps for Qianqian. If she really angered the old gramps, then the situation that awaited Qianqian would be even worse than this.
Ever since Yunrong had brought this girl back to the Rong Family, he had always treated her coldly. It was not because of the big ruckus his son had caused in the Dongfeng City, it was just that he was waiting for his eldest son to come back and take care of her in front of him.
However, he never expected that Mu Qianqian would give him such a big trouble during the birthday banquet before he even got his son involved.
Even Yunrong and Ting Ye had been changed by Mu Qianqian. According to the old man, even Yu Qing had been charmed, and Leng Su and Chang Feng had not fully reported on Mu Qianqian.
This girl couldn't be said to be weak.
"Miss Mu was brought back to my Rong Family by Yunrong, and can also be considered as my Rong Family's guest. As my master, I can't ignore the things that have happened today, but I won't wrongly accuse anyone."
Mu Qianqian's body trembled unconsciously because of Rong Zhennan's way of addressing her. Her heavy and powerful voice carried a lot of pressure. A "Miss Mu" also showed the distance between them.
Nuo Wen's expression finally relaxed a little because of Rong Zhennan's declaration. She turned around and sat beside her husband, waiting for Rong Zhennan to deal with this matter personally.
Relying on the relationship between Ling Family and the Rong Family, Nuo Wen believed that Rong Zhennan would definitely not sit idly by and do nothing.
Perhaps, she might be able to make Mu Qianqian leave Rong Heting completely using this opportunity. After all, the news from the Dongfeng City had already spread over and even if Jinghan didn't act today, she wouldn't sit idly by and do nothing.
Recalling the intimacy between her husband and Mu Qianqian, Mrs Nuowen couldn't bear Mu Qianqian's existence any more.
A girl who could move her elegant, detached husband must be a difficult character. Even if she didn't poison him, he would become her daughter's biggest obstacle in the future.
Be it selfish or treacherous, now that her youngest daughter was missing, she would put all her love for her daughter on Jinghan.
Looking at his wife's expression, Ling Yu could only sigh softly. No one understood Nuo Wen's inner suffering better than him. Furthermore, he had been poisoned. She must have been scared.
"Wenwen, I'm fine. Forget it. Don't let Zhennan affect everyone's mood with such a small matter."
"No, I won't listen to you regarding this matter. I won't let anyone who wants to hurt you off. A dozen years ago, it was my negligence that caused our daughter to …"
Nuo Wen's voice was choked with sobs, and a sinister light flashed in her eyes. She found it hard to suppress it. "In short, I need an explanation for the poison today!"
Ling Yu's heart sank as he thought of his daughter being sneakily taken away by someone. He looked at Ling Jinghan and finally compromised.
No one was a saint. If defending Jinghan made Nuo Wen's heart feel better, then there was nothing he couldn't do as a husband.
Qianqian, I'm sorry.
Rong Zhennan's expression was also very heavy. He had heard Ling Yu's words clearly. He could not allow anyone to plot against the Ling and Rong Families again, so he would never forget the hatred they had for each other.
He would never again condone those who tried to sow discord between the two families.
"Miss Mu, please explain why you went to the kitchen and what you did. You said that you didn't poison her, but who can prove it?"
From the moment Ling Jinghan started questioning her, Mu Qianqian had never had a chance to speak. Even Mrs Nuowen's questions about her pocket watch left her speechless.
Now that everyone believed that Ling Jinghan had poisoned her, she must make use of this opportunity to explain everything clearly.
I don't know anyone here, Sister Lan and Yunrong are both busy entertaining guests, so I wandered around the garden for a long time. Because I was tired, I wasn't used to eating at banquets, so Yunrong took me to the kitchen to make some Chinese food for me.
"I don't know who did it, but Yunrong and I have been together all this time, so I'm sure he can testify to me."
Mu Qianqian's words were soft and clear to Qianqian, but they were simple and coherent, not like a lie.
If she had only said that she went to the kitchen when she was hungry, perhaps no one would have believed her. However, no one would have thought that she went to the kitchen with Second Young Master Rong Family.
There was not a single person who did not know how much Rong Zhennan and Rong Heting doted on their little brother. Furthermore, Hua Yunrong was absolutely filial and respectful to his father and big brother.
Once, an insolent nouveau riche inadvertently said at the banquet that Rong Zhennan was so arrogant that he was beaten up by Hua Yunrong until his family was ruined. To say that he would allow Mu Qianqian to poison him was definitely impossible.
Today was Old Master Rong's sixtieth birthday, so Hua Yunrong definitely wouldn't mess around during his father's birthday banquet.
Rong Zhennan also frowned when he heard Mu Qianqian's words. He really didn't expect that the stinky brat that he was used to having problems with would abandon his customers and go to the kitchen to cook for a little girl to curry favor with.
"Where's Yunrong?" Rong Zhennan looked at the butler beside him.
Hearing the old man mention Hua Yunrong, the butler braced himself and explained, "Second Young Master left in a rage just now, but Chang Feng also didn't catch up to him."
Others might not know who Chang Feng was, but they were clear that he was Rong Family's Second Young Master's follower.
Chang Feng was indeed Hua Yunrong's follower, but he was no ordinary follower. That was Dark Guard that he specially trained, he couldn't even catch up to Chang Feng. It could be seen who had angered Hua Yunrong.
The butler saw Rong Zhennan's expression darken and cold sweat poured out from his forehead.
It was the old gramps' birthday, and both young masters had run away. How embarrassing was this, not to mention the fact that poison had been poisoned.
"Send someone to look for him. We must capture that brat and bring him back to testify!"
"Yes."
Rong Zhennan stared at Mu Qianqian, who was standing in front of him, wearing a simple and elegant qipao.
"Everyone, why don't you wait a bit? I will definitely give you an explanation for what happened today. Ting Lan, take away all the food at the banquet and let Old Yu prepare the lunch. Eat it now and take out my collection from the wine cellar."
"Yes."
"Wait!"
Seeing that the situation was about to be covered, Ling Jinghan could no longer hold it in. She stepped forward to block Ting Lan's steps and met Rong Zhennan's dignified gaze.
