When Li Mu Chen went back to the table, her mother, Zhao Wei pulled at her hand and frowned. "Where have you been?"
Li Mu Chen glanced at the table across the table and saw that Li Qin Yao was leaning her head on her boyfriend's shoulder while she conversed with the elder man.
"Nowhere. I went to get some air, but I ran into Li Qin Yao and her boyfriend," Li Mu Chen said. She turned to her mother with an aggrieved expression and continued, "I tried to start a conversation with them but guess how they treated me?" She sneered before retelling her encounter with her cousin earlier.
Of course, Li Mu Chen managed to make her cousin looked bad and she did not mention Li Qin Yao's unwillingness to help her transfer to B City. Her mother would scold her if she knew that she went to ask for her cousin's help.
