Wang Man brought Mu Ran to Shenghao. Wang Man was a regular here so the waiter had prepared a private room for them. The two of them entered the private room, and there were already people waiting for them inside. Hearing the sound of the door opening, the man stood up from the sofa.

The man was tall and well-proportioned. Although he was wearing a pair of elegant gold-rimmed glasses, he was not thin and weak. His clothes might make him look skinny but he is actually pretty muscular.

The light in the room was a little dim and it fell on the man’s well-defined face. Mu Ran stared at him in a daze.

Why did he come back? When did he come back?

“Mu Ran, I’m back,” Qin Wei’s deep voice sounded. His clear eyes gazed at Mu Ran with deep affection, as if he wanted to see through her. Mu Ran dodged from his eyes a little as she lowered her head and responded softly.

Qin Wei was Mu Ran’s senior in college, and he had pursued her passionately and crazily. Unfortunately, at that time, she only had Fu Ting in her heart, so she rejected Qin Wei’s confession. She heard that after he graduated, he went abroad to further his studies, and there was no more news from him.

Mu Ran never thought that she would see Qin Wei here.

“This guy has always been faithful to you. After he went abroad, he still couldn’t forget about you and often asked me about how you were. I just told him yesterday that you were planning to divorce Fu Ting, so he took the nearest flight and flew here overnight. He even said that he wanted to see you.”

Wang Man walked over and patted Qin Wei on the back. “I’ve brought her over for you so you have to hold on to her.”

“Wang Man!”

Mu Ran stopped Wang Man and told her not to spout nonsense. Then, she smiled at Qin Wei in embarrassment before tidying up her messy hair.

“Actually, I was already planning to come back so if you need any help in the future, just let me know.” Qin Wei smiled at Mu Ran. Although Mu Ran was no longer his ignorant junior from back then and she had a more mature charm now, it still made his heart throb inexplicably.

He didn’t dare to be rude to Mu Ran so the three of them only talked about some interesting things from the past.

Mu Ran had been focused on Fu Ting in the past. When she heard Qin Wei talk about the past, she couldn’t help but sigh. It turned out that her life was quite interesting even without Fu Ting.

After chatting for a while, it was almost time to go back.

Just as she walked out of the private room, she saw a 15 or 16-year-old girl rush over. Without any reason, the girl slapped her face!

Qin Wei quickly reacted and pushed the girl away before pushing Mu Ran behind him to protect her.

Wang Man was also anxious and quickly went forward to check on Mu Ran. Mu Ran’s face was shockingly red and swollen from the slap!

Mu Ran looked gratefully at Qin Wei and then at the girl who was still cursing on the ground.

It was Fu Ting’s younger sister, Fu Xuan!

Fu Xuan relied on Wu Qiong and Fu Ting’s love for her, and was always unruly and willful. In the past, she had always ordered Mu Ran around, and she had always used a roundabout way to humiliate her. She had also never acknowledged Mu Ran as her sister-in-law before.

“B*tch, how dare you cheat on my brother!”

Fu Xuan followed a group of friends over to have a drink. When she saw Mu Ran enter the private room with Wang Man, she wondered why her sister-in-law, who had always been obedient, would come to such a place.

She did not expect Mu Ran to come out with a tall and handsome man beside her and the two of them were still chatting and laughing. She assumed that they had done something shady so she got angry and rushed forward to slap Mu Ran.

In any case, she had slapped Mu Ran in the Fu family before but that woman was so submissive that she did not even defend herself.

When Wang Man heard Fu Xuan scolding Mu Ran, she was so angry that the veins on her forehead were popping out and she was about to take action.

Mu Ran stopped her.

“Let me do it.”

She touched her left cheek, which was still in pain before walking up to Fu Xuan and staring into her eyes. She enunciated each word clearly, “Although you are not an adult yet, it’s not like I can’t do anything to you. You hit me and spoke rudely to me. If I call the police and pursue the matter, you can end up in jail for a few days.”

Fu Xuan’s face turned pale, and her lips trembled slightly.

“Am I right, Lawyer Wang?” Mu Ran smiled. She wasn’t playing around with Fu Xuan.

“That’s right, I can even make it so that she stays in jail for another two days,” Wang Man nodded and added.

“Mu Ran, what exactly do you want to do?” Fu Xuan gritted her teeth. Although she felt guilty, she still put on a tough front.

“Nothing, I just want to explain something to you.”

Mu Ran moved closer to Fu Xuan without any expression..
