"Perhaps dead," Qiu Zhi smacked his lips and, after receiving a disdainful glance from Su Ziceng, hurriedly corrected himself: "At least in the eyes of the Wen family, she's dead."
This is the so-called trick commonly employed by prestigious families. When Wen Zimu was still the darling of the international T-stage, the Wen family could tolerate her rebelliousness.

In the public eye, she who brought disgrace upon her parents, might as well have died long ago. No wonder Sister Mu had become a recluse all year round, numbing herself with alcohol.
