71 Chapter 71 you want me to be cuckolded

"I'll go," Mu Ru said.

Mu Ru saw that Dongfang Jun was not going to do anything, so she stood up and walked upstairs. Just as she reached the door, she raised her hand to knock. Suddenly, the door opened. Xi Muxue had already changed out of her wedding dress. She was wearing a tight-fitting pink and blue gown, which made her look even more beautiful and charming.

When Mu Xue saw Mu Ru, her expression changed. The corners of her mouth curled into a mocking smile.

"This is Sister-in-Law, right?" Mu Xue said.

Mu Ru was slightly stunned.

"It's time to eat," Mu Ru said indifferently.

Mu Ru immediately turned around and walked downstairs. She could hear Mu Xue speaking to Dongfang Yu behind her.

"Ah Yu, your brother won't be joining us for dinner, right? I'm afraid that when I see him, I—"

Dongfang Yu quickly answered, "It's okay. He doesn't seem to be here tonight. I heard that he went to the office earlier this afternoon, and he hasn't returned yet."

Dongfang Yu's tone sounded indifferent.

As expected, Dongfang Mo wasn't around during dinner, but Dongfang Mei did join everyone else for dinner. She looked at Xi Muxue and treated her more benevolently. She very politely explained to Mu Xue that since the wedding was a little rushed, the preparations weren't very thorough. She even apologized to Mu Xue for the lack of pomp in the Dragon Garden.

Xi Muxue had been very dissatisfied with the Dongfang family's treatment of her. It was obvious to her that Dongfang Mei disliked her. Dongfang Yu explained to Mu Xue that the whole wedding had been rushed, and that explanation seemed to pacify Mu Xue.

Mu Ru did not want to stay behind after dinner for all the niceties. After dinner, she walked out of the hall. The moon shone brightly that night, and she wanted to take a walk in the garden.

Dongfang Jun followed her out and then took the opportunity to give her the recording pen.

"Mu Ru, Cheng Feier asked me to give this to you. Recently, she has been recording all the classes for you. You have to find time to study. Don't give up," Dongfang Jun said to Mu Ru.

"Thank you!" Mu Ru exclaimed.

Mu Ru took the recording pen and expressed her gratitude to Dongfang Jun.

"Ah Jun, you're so kind," she said.

Dongfang Jun was slightly stunned. He smiled bitterly at Mu Ru.

He answered, "What's the use of being kind? My mother always despises me for not meeting her expectations. She hopes that I can join the Dongfang Group as soon as possible, but I—"

They were startled by a voice from behind them. "Ah Jun, what are you saying to Sister-in-Law?"

It was Dongfang Yu's voice. Mu Ru turned her head in surprise and saw Dongfang Yu standing right in front of her. He was just one step away from her.

She was so frightened. Dongfang Yu was like a ghost.

Why hadn't they heard his footsteps?

Dongfang Yu must have moved so stealthily that they haven't even noticed him approaching them.

Mu Ru instinctively lowered her head to look at Dongfang Yu's feet. However, before she could see clearly, she heard Dongfang Jun's mocking voice beside her.

"Aiyo, you're the groom today. This is a momentous occasion. You should be back in the bridal chamber. Why are you admiring the moon in this garden alone? Are you planning to let Second Sister-in-Law spend her wedding night alone, like Eldest Sister-in-Law had?"

Dongfang Yu's expression changed, and he glared at Dongfang Jun.

Dongfang Yu answered, "Since you know about Eldest Brother's situation, then you should keep a distance from Eldest Sister-in-Law. It's already nighttime, and you're actually strolling side by side with Eldest Sister-in-Law here in the garden. Maybe you don't care about your reputation in this family, but I don't think that you want to be labeled as a cuckold, right?"
