"Mu Feng, are you interested in Gu Yan? But let tell you, your Mu Family has only just started to rise. With your status, you certainly won’t be able to marry Gu Yan!"
Mu Feng had just seen Gu Yan and, in fact, didn’t have such thoughts. He was simply astonished by her beauty.
Although he had seen her before, it was always at banquets and from a great distance.
He definitely admired her, but he was also acutely aware that he was absolutely not a match for Gu Yan—even now, being engaged to Luo Xixi, he was reaching above his station with the Luo Family.
However, hearing Luo Xixi’s words made him very angry. His manic-depressive period was about to begin, and he had wanted to be close with his fiancée to comfort him with her presence.
Now it seed, he might as well use the exclusive dicine directly! A cold bottle of exclusive dicine was far better than this Luo Xixi!
He said indifferently, "I only have respect for Gu Yan. But hearing you say this, I am truly disappointed. Since you’ve always looked down on , let’s consider our engagent cancelled!"
The position of the Mu Family was not high, but Mu Feng himself was indeed excellent.
Moreover, although Mu Lei and the others had changed their surnas, they had made it clear that if there were talented children within the Mu Family who they believed had good character and needed support, they would provide it.
Not long ago, Gu Lei had made a special point to comnd Mu Feng, advising him, and expressing willingness to support a proactive and excellent junior.
Which ant, actually, Mu Feng’s future was definitely not bleak.
There was no need for him to endure the indignity from this spoiled girl here.
Watching Mu Feng turn around and walk away, Luo Xixi panicked a bit. Of course, she cared about her fiancé. She wouldn’t react like this just because soone else gave Mu Feng a second glance. But Gu Yan... Luo Xixi felt a surge of anxiety in her heart!
But Mu Feng had already walked away, not even replying to her ssages anymore.
Mu Feng really wasn’t paying attention to Luo Xixi any longer. Having no other choice, Luo Xixi inford her family of the situation, which surprised them as well.
Luo Xixi’s mother said worriedly, "Did Gu Yan really take an interest in Mu Feng? If that’s true, even if you’re already engaged, you won’t be able to compete with her."
Luo Xixi imdiately burst into tears.
The situation caused quite a stir and eventually even reached Luo Manya, albeit indirectly.
Since Gu Zilan had stepped down from the throne, he wasn’t completely idle either. He still participated in so major dostic affairs, and to so extent, continued to support Gu Chen.
Fortunately, although Gu Chen was young, he was very capable and could handle most things himself. Gu Zilan was fairly free as a result.
And Luo Manya was even more at leisure.
They had moved out of the Imperial Palace and into a specially renovated villa. After listening to her aunt’s words, Luo Manya said nonchalantly, "Don’t worry. Xiaoyan isn’t interested in Mu Feng."
The expressions of the several Luo Family won present stalled.
While Luo Manya’s tone was confident, assuring them that the marriage between Qianqian and Mu Feng was unlikely to fall through, there was sothing awkward about her words.
It seed as if she was implying that Gu Yan wasn’t interested in Mu Feng, and yet their family’s Qianqian was cherishing soone Gu Yan had no interest in.
Luo Manya looked at several family mbers, shook her head helplessly, then yawned, ntioning she was tired.
The others felt it was inappropriate to stay any longer, so they all got up and left.
Just then, Gu Ruanruan walked in from outside. After her marriage, she and her husband had bought an apartnt separately. Although it wasn’t big, the location was excellent. It wasn’t far from the military headquarters and where her parents lived.
She looked at her mother, weary-eyed, and asked curiously, "Mother, what’s wrong?"
Luo Manya recounted the recent visit from the Luo Family, including everything they had said. Upon hearing this, Gu Ruanruan was utterly speechless.
"I’ve t that Mu Feng before, he’s indeed quite outstanding, but Xiaoyan is by no ans desperate enough to snatch a man away from soone else. Besides, Mu Feng isn’t worthy of Xiaoyan."
Gu Ruanruan spoke directly, which, if the Luo family won, especially Luo Xixi herself, were to hear, would probably drive them crazy.
But they could only hold their anger in silence, after all, they were afraid of Gu Ruanruan.
Luo Manya said, "I’ve given them a warning. It must be a misunderstanding, let’s not blow this out of proportion, better to end it here."
Gu Ruanruan nodded, "Indeed, if it blows up, Luo Xixi would be the one to suffer."
Everyone knew that Xiaoyan’s parents and two older brothers doted on her the most. If Luo Xixi ever made a big fuss over this matter, Gu Ruanruan would certainly not intervene.
After all, she still believed that Mu Feng was not good enough for Xiaoyan.
Gu Yan was unaware that she had caused quite a stir at the Luo Family. After a day of classes, she told her parents she would be staying in the dormitory that night.
She decided that if she had no classes in the morning, she could go ho the day before. If she had morning classes the next day, she would simply stay in the dorm.
Apart from Vivian, Gu Yan was also quite close to several other female classmates in her class.
But she never liked that Molly.
She always felt that Molly’s way of doing things and speaking was very deliberate.
Of course, Gu Yan didn’t say anything and maintained a normal relationship with her on the surface, but she definitely kept her distance.
Gu Yu didn’t live on campus, and after his classes, he would return ho. Since their mother, Su Wan, had brought many delicious things for his sister, Gu Yu sotis ca to her dormitory at noon to have a al with her.
Empire University had a canteen and provided three daily als of nutrition liquid to every student, but the children of the Gu Family, who grew up surrounded by fine food, would only have the nutrition liquid under special circumstances.
Of course, the food outside was nowhere as good as what their mother Su Wan cooked herself.
Vivian initially felt a bit awkward, but after spending ti with Gu Yan and Gu Yu, she found that the siblings were very easygoing, nothing like what was described on StarNet, so she gradually got used to them.
Also, unlike other girls who would gaze at Gu Yu starry-eyed and cling to him, Vivian remained detached, which made Gu Yu quite comfortable.
He even confided to Gu Yan privately that her roommate was not bad.
Gu Yan, curious, asked, "Why do you say that?"
"She’s not a fangirl."
Gu Yan couldn’t help but smile wryly. She told him about the previous incident with senior Lu, and then said, "Afterward, Vivian stated, ’Good-looking guys are like floods and savage beasts. Having them as boyfriends or husbands is very unsafe; they attract too many won’s covetous eyes.’"
So, even though Gu Yu was very handso, Vivian always treated him only as her roommate’s brother and held no other thoughts, not even indulging in a mont of fangirling.
Then one day, as usual, Gu Yu ca to his sister’s dormitory to eat, and the three of them sat on the couch with the food spread out on the coffee table, chatting about the upcoming military training, when there was a knock at the door.
Vivian got up to open the door and was surprised to find Molly standing there, holding so fruit in her hands.
As she walked in, she said with a smile, "Wow, what are you guys eating? It slls so good."
