"Earlier, your mother still claimed you were framed by villains and dragged away. Out of regard for my friendship with your mother, I could turn a blind eye, but you cannot repeatedly behave in such an unseemly manner! Otherwise, you won't even make it as a concubine; you'll be nothing more than a shared bedmaid." The Marquis of Yongning grew angrier as he spoke.
"Pardon me, Marchioness, but did you fail to notice that my Mu Mansion guards and my personal maid are right here by my side? A few ruffians caused a disturbance at the restaurant, and I came out to handle it. Why must you twist it into something so wretched? By your logic, with men and women bustling through the streets every day, brushing arms and shoulders is inevitable. Does that mean every single one of them is involved in some scandal?" Mu Jinyuan retorted, word for word.
"You!" The Marchioness of Yongning was choked by Mu Jinyuan's sharp tongue. "In any case, you have no business wandering about at will! If nobody in the Mu Mansion is going to manage restaurant affairs, I can help you find someone who will. What kind of spectacle is it for a woman to be running a business out in the open!"
