"They used to feel aggrieved by Fourth Miss Zhao and her group," Mu Nan explained. "You avenged them, so naturally, they are grateful to you. Previously, they were utterly helpless, which is unpleasant to mention. But today, after deceiving Fourth Miss Zhao's group out of so much money and making them shoot themselves in the foot, they certainly felt secretly thrilled."
At this, Mu Hanyan finally realized. Although the Zhao Family and the Zhou Family saw the Mu Family as enemies, they dared not provoke them openly. After all, the Mu Family in Heishi City was a branch of the Mu Family in the capital, which had much more influence. Although they did not dare to confront them openly, they did not stop their younger generations from making trouble for the younger members of the Mu Family, believing these were just insignificant little kids' issues that the Mu Family would surely not escalate to full-blown conflicts.
