Chapter 754: KNOW YOUR PLACE
Jing Sheng couldn't take it anymore and screamed, "Stop it!" Jing Sheng screamed. "Don't say anymore."
Only then, Mu Lan stopped.
Jing Sheng left the bedroom hastily. After she left, Mu Lan wondered in her mind. 'Was I too overbearing? Moreover, why didn't she talk about Noel taking her home? Could it be she remember nothing at all? What about Noel? What happened last night?!'
She covered her head. Her heart was unsettled. She badly wanted to know what happened between those two last night. But without Carlo's help, she wouldn't know.
"Ahh! I want to know! I want to know! I want to know!" She covered her head and screamed.
"I also have something to know." Mu Liang entered the room and heard her screaming. He stood right in front of her.
Mu Lan covered her mouth in surprise. 'Oops! I screamed aloud.' She thought to herself. She realized her mistake.
Mu Liang asked, "Are you trying to set up my mother with Noel?"
He was calm, but it scared her half to death. It was more like calm before the storm.
Mu Lan gulped down a mouth saliva to moist her dry throat. However, it didn't work. "H-hubby, it is not nice to eavesdrop."
"I didn't. I got the news of night club incident just now." Mu Liang truthfully replied. His eyes were digging hole in her eyes. "The man who tried to flirt with mother was one of your daddies."
"I-is that so…" Mu Lan coughed. In her head, it was brainstorming. She couldn't find a way out. She completely forgot that Mu Liang might investigate the night club incident out of curiosity; mostly after meeting Li Shen there.
Mu Liang spoke, "Well…"
Mu Lan exhaled loudly. She patted the place beside her on the bed, silently telling Mu Liang to sit there. He came forward and sat beside her. However, his eyes didn't leave her even for a second.
Mu Lan took a deep breath and then she started, "Here is the thing…"

Jing Sheng was walking in the corridor hastily. Just she turned to the left to take the stairs, she bumped into someone. She was startled as she stepped back and saw a familiar face. Her eyes grew bigger. "You!"
This person was Mu Lin's one of the most dedicated maid and one of those who hated and mistreated Jing Sheng. Of all people, the person who tortured Jing Sheng the most was this woman right in front of her. She was as sly as a snake. She showed her angelic face to everyone, but her demonic face was preserved for Jing Sheng.
If Noel knew about this snake's real face, he would tell it to Mu Lan and she would take her to the dungeon with those who were Mu Lin's personal maids.
The person in front of her put a finger on her own mouth. "Shh! Don't make any scene here. You lived here for so long and yet you learnt nothing. A trash is always a trash." The woman sneered. "You did a good job leaving this place. This is not a place for an indecent trash."
Jing Sheng clenched her fists. Her heart was already in a mess. Now there was another person who was piercing her heart. But she decided to fight back. She gave a mocking smile and retailed back, "What you said is absolutely correct. A trash is always a trash; and that's why you always stink."
"You!" That woman never thought that trashy woman would talk to her like that, even glaring at her. She was in rage. Her face became red in anger. She raised her hand to slap the insolent woman in front of her.
Jing Sheng caught the wrist before the owner's palm before it touched her delicate face. "Careful about what you wish for. I'm not that girl anymore who will hide all her feeling to herself." She threw away the hand said coldly, "Know your place."
Jing Sheng had enough of these heartless people. Now that she left after divorcing, she cared less about what they say or do. Moreover, her sons and Xiao Lan were on her side. If anything happened, she wouldn't let go of the opportunity to bully them who hurt her.
Saying that Jing Sheng left. Behind her, that woman gritted her teeth. "It looks like you didn't have enough punishment all these years. Just wait and see." Something evil was lurking in her eyes.

Noel knocked the door of the study room of Qi Ying.
"Come in." Qi Ying ordered.
Noel came inside the room and asked, "Madam Mu, is there anything you want me to do?"
Qi Ying was busy doing her study. She hardly had time to check the daily documents. That's why before she left for class and in the evening after dinner, she read the documents. She was too busy to miss lonely Mu Feng. As her responsibility grew day by day, she hired one of the most efficient butlers as her assistant who was chosen by the Head Butler Leo himself. Most of all, not only he did his job perfectly, but also began managing the household since the Head Butler Leo was teaching him and training him for a few months. His name was Zero.
Qi Ying looked up to see Leo. "Oh, you are here. There is something I want you to do outside the castle. It's something personal, for both you and I. I wish you will keep it a secret before the work is done."
Noel who was always serious, seeing Madam Mu like that he became more serious. He nodded and replied politely, "I understand. This matter will be safe with me as long as you want me to."
Qi Ying smiled. Her face was already showing tiredness because of the pressure she had been gone through all day. "Good to know. I'm ordering you to pack you bag and move out as soon as Zero's training ends. You have to look for a new job and quit your work as the Head Butler within fifteen days."
