With that, Niu Kexin headed deeper into the treasury by herself, leaving a mortified Mu He behind.
How could Mu Xue not see what was going on? She instantly flew into a rage and yanked Mu He by the ear.
"Are you even my brother? What do you mean I'm being unreasonable?"
Mu He gave a wry smile and batted her hand away. His gaze remained fixed on Niu Kexin's retreating figure as he said, "Well, you're the one who called her a country bumpkin first."
This made Mu Xue even angrier. "Did I name any names?"
"There are only three of us here. Surely you weren't calling the two of us country bumpkins?"
Mu Xue was too furious to speak. She just started pummeling Mu He's chest.
"Look at you! That vixen has completely bewitched you. You're even taking her side! I'm your real sister!"
Mu He grabbed her misbehaving hands and said sternly, "Don't be ridiculous. 'Vixen'? That's a horrible thing to say!"
"You... You're yelling at me? For her?!" Mu Xue looked utterly wronged.
