Bai Jing had been pulling a long face since she came out of the washroom.
And after she returned to the group of her female friends, her silence was even a bit scary.
Seeing that Bai Jing remained silent, Yangzi poked Bai Jing with her elbow, asking, âWhatâs wrong with you? Why do you suddenly become this silent?â
Bai Jing turned to look at Yangzi and wanted to tell Yangzi what her father told her on the phone.
But the words died on her lips. Bai Jing simply shook her head, answering, âIâm all right. I just donât feel like talking now.â
Seeing that Bai Jing didnât want to talk, Yangzi felt bored and then she accompanied Bai Jing for a while. Suddenly, Yangziâs eyes lit up. Then she walked towards Shao Tianze.
Seeing that Yangzi was walking to Shao Tianze, Bai Jing thought of the things that her father told her.
After pondering for a moment, Bai Jing also walked towards Shao Tianze.
After seeing Shao Tianze, Yangzi appeared delighted. She smiled, greeting Shao Tianze, âMr. Shao.â
Hearing the feminine and sweet voice, Shao Tianze slightly knitted his brows and then looked in the direction where the voice was from.
Gu Changle who was standing next to Shao Tianze also heard the voice, so she turned to look in the direction, too.
Then they both caught sight of Yangzi.
Yangzi was wearing a graceful light-purple low-cut dress, revealing her big breasts.
Gu Changle narrowed her eyes.
Shao Tianze halted. Seeing that, Yangzi walked over to Shao Tianze, greeting, âMr. Shao, what a coincidence.â
Hearing Yangziâs conventional greetings, Gu Changle sneered, âWe are all invited to attend the banquet. So itâs hardly a coincidence, is it?â
Yangzi took a scornful glance at Gu Changle, replying, âYou have a point. But it was not easy for me to find Mr. Shao as the banquet hall is so large. Therefore, wasnât it a coincidence that I saw Mr. Shao just by turning my head?â
Gu Changle frowned. She didnât expect that the chick had the gift of the gab.
Gu Changle made no reply. At this moment, Shao Tianze looked at Yangzi, asking, âIs there anything you want to see me about?â
âIâd like to buy you a drink and get acquainted with you. After all, weâve never officially got to know each other. I just heard about you from my father.â
With this, Yangzi motioned a waiter to stop. Then she took two goblets of golden champagne from the tray and handed one to Shao Tianze.
Yangzi totally brushed Gu Changle aside.
Gu Changle had never been slighted like this, so she was enraged.
But Gu Changle didnât show it. Instead, she gave a brittle laugh, saying, âWhy do you want to get to know my elder sisterâs husband, Miss Yangzi?â
Yangzi did not want to speak to Gu Changle and she held her cheap. However, now Yangzi felt that Gu Changle had got a sharp tongue.
Yangzi smiled, saying, âSpeaking of which, I admire Mr. Shao a lot...â
Bangâ
Before Yangzi finished her words, she was suddenly slapped in the face by Gu Changle.
Gu Changle slapped Yangzi so hard, which made her head tilt to one side.
Gu Changle put down her hand unhurriedly. Then she said calmly while being watched by the guests who looked at them in astonishment, âYou are supposed to be privileged. Why are you so ill-mannered?â
âYou!â Being slapped in the face in public, Yangzi was embarrassed, as well as furious.
Yangzi could get everything she wanted at home. She never expected that she would get slapped in todayâs banquet.
And Yangzi thought she was slapped by Gu Changle for no reason.
âHuh?â Gu Changle sniffed, saying, âHow could you profess your love to my elder sisterâs husband on a public occasion, Miss Yangzi?â
âI didnât!â
Yangzi defended herself, feeling astonished.
Yangzi did want to attract Shao Tianzeâs attention, get his favor, and start a relationship with him.
But she did not say any suggestive words.
Yangzi couldnât figure out what a blunder she had made, which made Gu Changle slap her on a public occasion.
But Gu Changle said, âYou said that you admired my brother-in-law. Wasnât it a declaration? Everyone knows that my brother-in-law is affectionate to my elder sister Gu Changge. Though she has died, my brother-in-law isnât going to marry another woman. So donât you think your declaration will bug him?â
Yangzi was just trying to get acquainted with Shao Tianze.
But out of her expectation, Gu Changle made an issue of it.
Yangzi seethed, suppressing her anger.
Seeing that Yangzi couldnât tell but had to suffer in silence, Bai Jing couldnât help sniffing.
Apart from that, Bai Jing also felt that she was lucky.
Luckily, she did not behave like Yangzi who was not observant at all.
When Bai Jing noticed that Gu Changle was together with Shao Tianze, she had felt Gu Changle was not someone to be trifled with.
Now seeing that Gu Changle slapped Yangzi in the face, Bai Jing felt surer of her judgment.
The rumors could not be all wrong. At least half of them were true.
Among which, the rumor that Gu Changle had a relationship with Shao Tianze must be true.
Many guests were pointing and laughing at the conflict between Yangzi and Gu Changle.
Meanwhile, Song Yunxuan was following Lu Feng back into the banquet hall.
When Lu Feng and Song Yunxuan entered the hall, only a few people noticed them.
Most of the guests were paying attention to Gu Changle and Yangzi.
Noticing that something happened, Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng also looked in the direction of the crowd.
Then they caught sight of Shao Tianze who was frowning in the crowd.
They also noticed Gu Changle who stood preening next to Shao Tianze.
Seeing that Song Yunxuan and Lu Feng returned, Mei Qi walked up to Song Yunxuan, greeting her, âManager Song.â
Song Yunxuan nodded and asked Mei Qi, âWhat happened?â
Mei Qi answered, âIt seems that Gu Changle slapped Miss Yangzi in the face for no reason when Miss Yangzi wanted to speak to Shao Tianze.â
Hearing Mei Qi recounting the tale, Lu Feng looked at Gu Changle, slightly narrowing his eyes.
After a moment, Song Yunxuan asked Lu Feng, âThey two put a dampener on your day, right?â
Lu Feng shook his head, replying, âNot really. I just feel it interesting.â
Song Yunxuan didnât respond to that.
But Lu Feng continued, asking Song Yunxuan, âHave you heard of rumors between Gu Changle and Shao Tianze?â
âA little.â
Having said that, Song Yunxuan not only knew the rumors of Gu Changle and Shao Tianze, but she also knew their secrets.
It was just that it was not suitable for Song Yunxuan to tell those things to others.
Song Yunxuan showed no inclination to tell Lu Feng anything. Seeing that, Lu Feng smiled and called over his assistant.
Hearing Lu Feng calling him, his assistant immediately bent and replied, âAny orders, Mr. Lu?â
Lu Feng whispered something into his assistantâs ear.
Hearing that, the assistant nodded.
Then he walked towards Gu Changle and Yangzi.
Song Yunxuan saw that the assistant walked into the crowd and said something to Yangzi. Then Yangzi frowned and turned to look in the direction of Lu Feng.
Then Lu Feng met her gaze.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Seeing Lu Feng, Yangzi immediately cooled down and felt a bit stupefied. Then she turned her gaze back and followed the assistant out of the crowd.
Only after Yangzi left did Gu Changle notice that Lu Feng and Song Yunxuan had arrived.
Gu Changle knitted her brows, looking at Song Yunxuan.
And Song Yunxuan was looking at Gu Changle casually.
Gu Changle pressed her lips, taking a look at Shao Tianze.
Shao Tianze gently coughed and walked over to Lu Feng.
Seeing that Gu Changle and Shao Tianze walked to him together, Lu Feng chuckled and turned to look at Song Yunxuan, asking, âDo you think I should meet them or not, Miss Song?â
Hearing Lu Fengâs words, Song Yunxuan also smiled, replying, âItâs up to you.â
Lu Feng was sounding Song Yunxuan out.
But Lu Feng was the one to decide who he would like to support.
After Shao Tianze and Gu Changle walked up to Lu Feng, both of them looked at him politely. Then Gu Changle slightly smiled, greeting, âMr. Lu, what an honor.â
âItâs also an honor for me to invite you, a real looker.â
Gu Changle surely felt happy as being praised for her beauty.
But after a moment, Lu Feng turned to look at Song Yunxuan, asking, âMiss Song, do you think Miss Gu is the prettiest privileged daughter in Yuncheng?â
Hearing Lu Fengâs question, Song Yunxuan nodded, replying, âWell, if you say so.â
The remarks were so ambiguous and it could even be said that Song Yunxuan said it with some reluctance.
Sensing the reluctance in Song Yunxuanâs words, Lu Feng suddenly seemed to think of something, saying, âI heard that Miss Gu Changleâs elder sister, Gu Changge, was a talented and modest privileged daughter.â
What Gu Changle hated the most was that someone mentioned Gu Changge in front of her.
Besides, the man in front of her was praising Gu Changge.
It made Gu Changle unhappy.
However, it seemed that Lu Feng did not sense Gu Changleâs displeasure at all. He continued speaking to Song Yunxuan, âHave you ever met Miss Gu Changge, Miss Song?â
âMiss Changge has already died.â
Lu Feng replied, appearing a bit sorry for Gu Changge, âWhat a pity. I thought I could invite Miss Changge today, but she has already died. How sad it is.â
With this, Lu Feng glanced at Gu Changle casually, saying, âMake yourself at home, Miss Changle. See you around.â
With this, Lu Feng ordered his assistant to wheel him away.
Noticing that Song Yunxuan did not follow him when he was about to leave, Lu Feng turned to look at Song Yunxuan, saying, âMiss Song, come and have tea with me.â
Hearing that, Song Yunxuan glanced at Shao Tianze and Gu Changle. Then she turned to follow Lu Feng to have tea.
Seeing that Lu Feng chose Gu Changge, Gu Changle frowned and said to Shao Tianze, âLu Feng chooses to side with Song Yunxuan?â
Shao Tianze said faintly, âYes.â
Hearing that, Gu Changle appeared more displeased.
