Zhang Xueâs sisters were also filled with righteous indignation. Zhang Xue being humiliated was undoubtedly a loss of their common face. They had to teach Gu Song a lesson.
âTell me who your father is. Let me hear who he is. Do you think Iâm afraid of you?â Gu Song also lost his temper and retorted without showing any weakness.
At the critical moment, Hai Tang hurriedly pulled Gu Song away. At the same time, she advised,â Forget it, forget it. Quarreling with people like them will only lower our own value.â
Hai Tang pulled Gu Song to the side of the violin performance. When she could no longer hear Zhang Xue and the others, she gestured for Gu Song to sit down.
After seeing Hai Tang and Gu Song tactfully leave, Zhang Xue raised her chin with an unhappy expression.
But her gaze still occasionally turned to where Hai Tang and Gu Song were sitting. With the bickering just now, she felt that Hai Tang and Gu Song were very unpleasant to the eye.
Especially when Hai Tang tried to persuade Gu Song, in Zhang Xueâs eyes, it felt like she was pretending to be aloof.
Seeing that Zhang Xue was unhappy, the girl beside her tried to persuade her.â Donât be angry, Sister Xue. These country bumpkins donât know the rules. Itâs unlucky for us to meet them. Donât worry about them.â
âI wonât take such a small fry to heart,â Zhang Xue snorted.
Although Zhang Xue pretended not to care on the surface, Yu Lu knew that she was actually very concerned about her face. Her eyes turned, thinking of another way to intensify the conflict between her and Hai Tang.
Hence, Yu Lu looked at Zhang Xueâs white short skirt and said with ulterior motives,â The person next to that country bumpkin is wearing a dress ot the same color as you. Is it a limited edition from C Family?â It seems to cost more than 600,000 yuan.â
As she spoke, Yu Lu pointed at Hai Tang, who was sitting in the distance, and motioned for Zhang Xue to take a look.
â How can a piece of trash like her afford a dress that costs more than 600,000 yuan? It must be a fake.â Zhang Xue retorted subconsciously.
However, at this moment, the lights in the hall shone on Hai Tang. The special fabric of the dress reflected an extremely bright light. Even though Zhang Xue and the others were some distance away from her, they could still see the light. This texture was enough to prove that Hai Tang was wearing authentic goods.
âOh my god, that dress of hers does look very expensive.â The girl next to him covered her mouth in surprise.
Zhang Xue suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She pretended to be calm and deduced,â They are such vain people. They must have rented the dress specially for this gala. Itâs impossible for them to own it.â
âA rented dress? If it gets dirty, youâll have to pay a lot of money, right?â Yu Lu said. In fact, she was deliberately guiding Zhang Xueâs thoughts.
Sure enough, Zhang Xue had an idea when she heard Yu Luâs words. She immediately revealed a sinister smile and said,â You guys watch. I have a way to deal with her.â
As she spoke, Zhang Xue stood up and picked up a glass of red wine. She swayed and walked in the direction of Hai Tang.
At this moment, the host of the party began to adjust the microphone, indicating that the guests could go to the stage and take their seats.
Hai Tang and Gu Song also stood up when they heard the announcement, preparing to go over.
At this moment, Zhang Xue walked to Hai Tang and Gu Songâs side and deliberately pretended to be unsteady, bumping into Hai Tang.
The cup in her hand immediately splashed a few drops of wine on Hai Tangâs skirt, quickly forming a few wine-red dots on the soft white fabric.
âHey, watch where youâre going,â Zhang Xue said lightly.
â Sister-in-law!â Gu Song pointed at Hai Tangâs dirtied dress and called out.â
Sister-in-law, your dress!â
Hai Tang watched Zhang Xue leave with a smile after getting what she wanted. She raised her eyebrows and called out to her,â You in front, wait.â
Zhang Xue stopped and tilted her head to look at Hai Tang.
Gu Song was already at odds with Zhang Xue. Now that he saw her causing trouble again, he was furious. He shouted,â Donât you know what youâve done?â Zhang Xueâs gaze shifted to Hai Tangâs dress and smiled meaningfully.
âYou just want to apologize?â Gu Song was even more displeased. âWhat else do you want from me?â Zhang Xue replied arrogantly.
âYouâve dirtied my sister-in-lawâs dress!â
Zhang Xue ignored her. She looked at the expressionless Hai Tang and said sarcastically,â It was an accident.. Why are you still holding on to me?â
