After the guests had departed, Leng Zhuxin followed Mo Qingyun to Father Mo's study.
No sooner had she sat down than Father Mo asked, "Yuner, do you perhaps find it hard to understand why the Gu Family caused a disturbance at your recognition banquet? In truth, they were not targeting you, nor were they targeting the Mo Family."
Leng Zhuxin shook her head. "I can guess some of it. Gu Fei probably did it for his sister's marriage. What I don't understand is why they couldn't just tell the Demon King directly that Gu Mei was unwilling to marry the Fifth Prince. The risk of offending our Mo Family is no smaller than that. Besides, the Demon King is no fool; it's impossible he wouldn't see through the Gu Family's intentions at all."
