Shot Herself in the Foot by Trying Too Hard

"Nothing needs to be done. Young Marshal Mu only needs to bring Ling Jing to the auction. That will be the icing on the cake."

Mu Feichi seemed caught off guard by her response, and he snorted softly. "You tell me to ask him to go with me, but why don't you ask whether I'm going or not?"

"If Young Marshal Mu wants to see a good show, then please come. However, don't forget my three laws. No intervention is allowed!"

"If you don't tell me anything, aren't you afraid that I might do something to your mother when I'm bored?"

"If Young Marshal Mu wants to, I'll be happy to oblige, but do so at your own risk."

She didn't wait for him to answer and promptly hung up the phone. She wasn't the slightest bit worried that he would mess up.

Now that he'd called to inform her about what was going on, it meant that he was asking for her opinion and didn't want to interfere or intend to help.
