Fu Jiang quietly observed everything. A trace of jealousy flashed across her eyes. It wasn't as though no one had ever looked at her that way.
Many men had. But... none of them were Liam. Slowly, she turned toward him.
Then... her heart sank. Liam's eyes were fixed on Mu Ning. Completely absorbed, almost... entranced.
A wave of insecurity surged through Fu Jiang's heart. Without thinking, she reached out and held Liam's hand.
Liam frowned. He immediately turned toward her.
Just as he was about to pull away, Fu Jiang suddenly called out loudly,
"Mu Ning!"
Mu Ning turned around. Fu Jiang smiled brightly.
"You and Young Master Sun look wonderful together."
The entire ballroom became quiet. Mu Ning's gaze slowly shifted downward.
It landed on the hands Fu Jiang and Liam were holding together. Her expression remained calm. Almost indifferent.
But... Fu Jiang clearly saw Mu Ning's pupils contract ever so slightly. A smile of victory appeared on Fu Jiang's face.
