Qiao Mu’s tiny hand was squeezing the pheasant’s neck, eliciting strings of pitiful gurgling.

“Quiet!” Qiao Mu brusquely beat its head and turned around, intending to leave.

“Qiao Mu!” A harsh shout came from the entrance of the City Lord’s Estate.

Qiao Mu turned her head and saw Qiao Wenjuan walking toward her with large steps. Her brows raised.

It appeared that Qiao Wenjuan became capable of escaping with her life intact after gaining her super speed ability.

After Qiao Wenjuan was kicked out of the group, Qiao Mu could not be bothered to speak with the woman. Hence, Qiao Mu merely glanced at her before expressionlessly clutching the pheasant and continuing to leave.

“Stop right there, Qiao Mu!” Qiao Wenjuan bolted toward Qiao Mu and was about to grab her slim shoulders when Qiao Mu kicked her mercilessly.

Qiao Wenjuan cried out in shock and staggered back a few steps before plopping onto the ground b.u.t.t-first.

“Wife.” Third Junior Wei ran over to help Qiao Wenjuan up.

Only then did Qiao Mu realize that Qiao Wenjuan wore a married-woman hairstyle. Qiao Wenjuan got married in the two days that she had not seen her?

Wasn’t this a little fast?!

Madam née Niu ran up, her shrewd eyes scanning Qiao Mu up and down. When she saw the child’s red cheeks and bright and pretty clothes, an astute glint flitted through her eyes.

“Isn’t this Old Qiao’s Qiao Mu?” Madam née Niu walked forward with a giggle and tried to pick up Qiao Mu’s hand. “Do you still remember Granny Niu from Wei Clan Village?”

Qiao Mu took a step back with her pheasant, her face wooden. “I don’t know you.”

Madam née Niu’s artificial smile instantly froze.

“Dear child, didn’t our two families meet to discuss your youngest aunt’s marriage a little while ago?” Madam née Niu let out an embarra.s.sed chuckle. “However, you’re still young, so it’s normal for you to be forgetful. Where’s your grandmother? Granny Niu wants to say h.e.l.lo to your grandmother.”
