"Plop—"

The sound of an adult falling into the water was loud, but at this time, almost everyone was concentrated in the front hall, and no one noticed the accident in the back garden.

Fortunately, there are only water lilies in the small pool, and the water is not deep, but there is still a lot of silt in it that has not had time to be cleaned up. Yan Huaiqing choked on a few mouthfuls of water, and when he struggled to get up from it, he was covered with water and mud all over his body, and the hairstyle he had made in advance was also scattered, and the whole person looked very embarrassed.

"Ahem, ahem! Who is it? ”

She coughed violently a few times, and finally recovered. But since that person dared to take advantage of the fact that no one was around, of course he couldn't be stupid enough to stay here and wait for her to find out.

At this time, it was already early autumn, and the wind at night was far more cold than during the day. Yan Huaiqing only felt that his body was blown very cold by the wind, but this was far from the shock and chill in his heart.

The front hall was full of guests invited by Mu Zhuoyao, and they were all well-known figures. Yan Huaiqing didn't want to make a big deal about it, so as not to lose Mu Zhuoyao's face, so he didn't tell anyone. She avoided everyone, didn't even call the servants, and went back to her room wrapped in a gown that had been wet and stained with water and mud.

"See Madame?"

When Mu Zhuoyao made arrangements and returned to the banquet, he didn't see Yan Huaiqing after looking for several circles, so he had no choice but to ask the servants who were busy around. It's just that Yan Huaiqing originally avoided everyone and went back, and of course he couldn't get an answer when he asked here.

Song Meilun heard his voice, frowned, and walked over from Twilight Yu to ask, "What's the matter, can't you find Jingjing?" ”

Mu Zhuoyao didn't intend to worry them, and he didn't expect that there would be an accident on Yan Huaiqing's side, so he just shook his head and replied, "It's okay, I asked just now, A-Jing didn't go out." She had never been used to such banquets, so she probably found a quiet place to go alone. ”

Song Meilun thought about it, her best friend is indeed such a character. So he put his mind at ease and made fun of Mu Zhuoyao, asking him to treat Yan Huaiqing well.

Of course, the latter responded one by one, and after the two left, they continued to look for Yan Huaiqing. I don't know if when he asked the first few servants, he finally got a reply: "Madame seems to have gone upstairs just now." I don't know if it's because I'm far away, but the clothes on my lady's body seem to be wet with water, so maybe I'm going back to my room to change my clothes. ”

Clothes wet?

Mu Zhuoyao couldn't help frowning. There was a lot of wine at this banquet, but if he really accidentally knocked over the glass, then he should have gotten an answer early in the morning when he asked someone about it. The only possibility is that Yan Huaiqing deliberately avoided people.

But why avoid it? Even the maid from such a distance could tell that her clothes were wet with water, so how big should the wet place be?

Mu Zhuoyao was puzzled, and couldn't help but worry about whether Yan Huaiqing had encountered something. He didn't have time to think too much about it, and hurried back to his room after passing the people who had greeted him along the way.

When he pushed the door open, he heard the sound of rushing water coming from the bathroom, and then looked at the floor outside the bathroom, the dress Yan Huaiqing was really thrown on the ground at random, and it looked soaked.

"Where is this wet, it's almost ...... if it falls into the water"

Mu Zhuoyao sighed and walked over there, but he couldn't help but guess what Yan Huaiqing had encountered before he hurriedly ran back to change his clothes. Soon, he saw the mud on the gown.

His expression suddenly turned cold, and the aura around him also fell. Even if he hadn't asked yet, he could roughly guess what Yan Huaiqing had experienced.

Just before Mu Zhuoyao could figure out how to deal with the culprit who was afraid that Huaiqing fell into the water, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open from the inside, and Yan Huaiqing, who was only wrapped in a bath towel, walked out of it. Seeing the person standing in front of the bathroom door, she was obviously stunned for a moment: "The guests are still waiting for you, why did you suddenly come here?" ”

"My wife is being bullied, how can I still talk and laugh with others outside with peace of mind!"

The air pressure around Mu Zhuoyao's body was really a little low, although he had deliberately converged when facing Yan Huaiqing, the latter could still feel it.

He pointed to the clothes on the ground, his face was not very good-looking, but there was distress in his eyes: "Tell me, what's going on?" ”

It seems that he is going to ask this matter clearly.

It just so happened that Yan Huaiqing just didn't want to alarm the guests outside, and he didn't plan to hide this matter from him, so after changing his clothes, he told Mu Zhuoyao everything about what happened in the back garden just now.

"But I didn't pay much attention to the back, and there was no one else in the garden, and by the time I came to my senses, I couldn't find where the person who pushed me went."

When Yan Huaiqing said this, he couldn't help frowning. Obviously, he has been pushed into the water and made a mess, but he has no idea who pushed him. This kind of thing makes me feel aggrieved just to think about it.

Mu Zhuoyao was also very angry about this matter, although he actually had more or less guesses in his heart, but there were still a large number of guests outside who needed them to go out to receive them, and the main purpose of holding this banquet had not yet been achieved, and now was obviously not the time to investigate thoroughly.

The two of them knew that they would not be able to check such a clueless thing for a while, so after a brief tidying up in the room, they went to the front hall arm in arm.

Fortunately, Mu Zhuoyao held a private banquet, although all the people who came were people with heads and faces, but the clothing requirements for women were not as high as those for large banquets. Even if the dress specially prepared for today is dirty, Yan Huaiqing's wardrobe has already been put into a lot of evening dresses by Mu Zhuoyao, just pick one out when you go out.

Unexpectedly, when Mu Zhuoyao introduced Yan Huaiqing's identity to everyone in public, and didn't know where to find an engagement ring, he knelt down on one knee and proposed to the latter, which caused an exclamation. Even Yan Huaiqing himself was speechless in surprise.

Only then did she know that Mu Zhuoyao was not at the banquet just now, and actually went to pick up this thing.

"Of course, I'm willing to marry you."

The cold ring was worn by Mu Zhuoyao on her hand, as if it was a reassuring pill, and the panic in her heart finally dissipated a lot.

Su Jingying hid in the crowd, looking at Yan Huaiqing, who was standing next to Mu Zhuoyao to accept everyone's compliments and congratulations, the goblet in her hand was almost crushed by her.
