Mrs. Du patted Ye Muyu’s hand and asked her to visit her home after she went to the county.

Ye Muyu nodded with a smile. “Madam, don’t worry. I’ll visit you. Don’t mind my thick skin at that time.”

“No, no.” Mrs. Du had a good attitude and the extra meal that Ye Muyu had given Du Heng made her feel at ease.

She felt good, so she naturally treated Ye Muyu better.

Mrs. Du’s gaze shifted to Xiang Ling’er. “Bring Ling’er along to,” she said casually.

“Alright.” Ye Muyu could tell that she was just being polite, so she agreed with a smile.

“Then we’ll go back first.” Mrs. Du let go of Ye Muyu’s hand and was helped into the carriage by the servant girl beside her.

Old Master Du also cupped his hands at Chu Heng and Chu Zhiwen before turning around and leaving.

Du Heng was the last to get on the carriage. He looked at Ling’er and then said to Ye Muyu, who was standing beside her. “Sister-in-law, don’t forget to come to my house when you’re done. I’ll treat you to a feast.”

“Alright.” Ye Muyu smiled and nodded.

However, she always felt that Du Heng’s words had a deeper meaning, but she could not figure out why, so she did not think about it.

After that, it was Mrs. Xie’s family.

Then, it was Dean Zhang and his wife.

After sending everyone away, Ye Muyu looked exhausted.

“Ah Yu, go and rest. I can’t take it anymore too. I need to go back and rest.” Madam Liu did not try to be brave. She patted Ye Muyu’s shoulder and called Chu Zhiwen, who was still very excited, to go back to the old residence.

After sending the two elders off, Ye Muyu rubbed her shoulders. She glanced at Lu Sangqi and walked into the house. “Why are you following me?”

“I’m just curious how many sides you have.” Lu Sangqi clicked his tongue in wonder.

Ye Muyu looked at his completely immature appearance. If it were not for the fact that he had helped her and Chu Heng before and that he had said those stupid words this time, she would have been worried for this child.

If he did not have anyone to help him, his reputation would be slowly ruined if he encountered such a thing again.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Lu Sangqi widened his eyes and pretended to be fierce.

Ye Muyu entered the room and poured herself a mouthful of tea. She drank it slowly and said, “I know you don’t like women to be too pretentious. But sometimes, as long as it’s useful, you can use it.”

“You see, if I were like you today, speaking in a domineering manner, outsiders would only think that I bullied the Young Miss of the Yu family.”

“It’s easy for people to have their own opinions. If they think that I bullied the Yu Family’s Young Miss, it would be very difficult for me to explain. It’s better to put on an act. In the end, the final result will be beneficial to us.”

“Sometimes, as long as the problem can be solved, any method can be used as long as it doesn’t affect others.

“After all, if you are wronged, no one will ever understand your pain. The onlookers will only sigh.”

“Therefore, you are the only one who can protect yourself. Using their judgment to protect yourself is the least harmful method.

“Of course, don’t use this method to hurt others. Otherwise, you will be schemed against by others sooner or later,” Ye Muyu reminded worriedly.

Lu Sangqi was shocked. He remembered the days when he was bullied by his stepmother when he was young. He hated those two-faced women who were honey-mouthed and backstabbing. However, the woman in front of him told him that putting on an act could also be used to protect himself. If those women also thought so, so many innocent people would not have been hurt.
