Chapter 59 – Joining The Drama
Mu Mingcheng was unhappy as he thought of this. He comforted himself, by reasoning that any man would be upset to know that his girlfriend liked someone unworthy in the past.
However, information gathered isnt always accurate.
He hasnt known Gu Jin for that long, and the time he spent with her hasnt even exceeded more than 24 hours.
And yet in that short amount of time, he was sure that Gu Jin was kind of person who would never be girlfriends with a mentally handicapped woman, let alone a man whos in love with someone else.
She seemed to look at everything in this world with a hint of criticism, and her sensibility and sobriety was at a terrifying level.
At this time, some people from the crowd noticed the situation on this side and started pointing at Cheng Xin. They gossiped, saying that this girl had no shame. Why hasnt her familys tutor taught her not to impolitely recognize the wrong person in public?
People in this business circle followed certain rules, but they were also careful not to break any taboos. As for ordinary people, they needed to be even more careful. But at this time, Mu Mingcheng, who was acknowledged by high society, had pointed out Cheng Xins rude manners. In everyones eyes, she was someone who wasnt taught properly.
When Cheng Xin heard his scolding words, her face turned from green, to pale, to red.
She wasnt lying at all, so why did this big brother say he didnt recognize her?
Cheng Xin bit her lip angrily.
But she hadnt thought about the issue too deeply. Five years ago, she was only around fifteen or sixteen years old and had yet to mature.
When women turn eighteen and reach adulthood, many physical changes take place. Sometimes its to the point where a person who looks at her younger pictures may not be able to recognize herself.
Whats more, if Mu Mingcheng was actually in the army in secret at that time and she keeps insisting loudly, wouldnt his identity be exposed?
Cheng Xin finally recovered from her excitement and noticed the crowds mocking gazes all around her.

She clearly lost herself earlier when she saw her male god. If there was a hole right in front of her, she wouldnt hesitate to hide in it out of embarrassment.
Since Jing Hao had yet to arrive, she remembered her sister, Gu Jin, who could help hide her from everyones mocking stares.
Cheng Xin turned to pull her cousins arm, but before she could, the man who scolded her just now bypassed her and quickly took the goblet from Gu Jins hand. Like a knight guarding his princess, Mu Mingcheng gently whispered, Youre not in good health these days, so you shouldnt be drinking wine.
Cheng Xin was stunned speechless.
Gu Jin had been watching a good play, but now the trouble came to her. She mentally rolled her eyes, but since being playing in a drama was a fun way to pass the time, she decided to perform her part.
Besides, Gu Jin obviously just held the glassful of red wine and had only lightly dipped her lips in it. Since when did she drink?
Also, although her period had already ended yesterday, she still couldnt eat or drink anything she wanted during this event.
Thinking back, she did agree to a trial relationship, although it was more appropriate to call it a cooperative relationship. For this black hearted man, she decided to join in with his performance as part of their cooperation.
Gu Jin, who had a light blush on her cheeks, obediently handed him the cup

The bright red wine, a glittering and translucent goblet, contrasted with the slender jade hand underneath the light had painted an image of a stunning irresistible beauty in Mu Mingchengs mind.
