Did I Offend Him by Not Begging for Help?

Because she had made plans with Chen Yichen to go to the Chen family's house for dinner on Saturday, Yun Xi was not surprised to see Jiang Chenghuan arrive almost right after she had arrived.

Yun Xi knew it wasn't a coincidence. She realized that it was just someone's jealousy acting up again.

Since Mu Feichi hadn't been invited, he'd sent his friend and lackey, Jiang Chenghuan, who as a family member could drop in unsuspiciously.

It was indeed true that it wouldn't have been appropriate for the dignified Young Marshal Mu of the Mu clan to drop into the Chen family's house so frequently. No one wanted gossip to start that the Chen family had established ties with the Mu family.

If that happened, the other three prominent families would regard the Chen family as a possible rival, and the stability of the power dynamic in Jingdu would be disrupted.

This wouldn't be a good thing for the Chen family, and it might even lead to its downfall.
