In her past life, Xia Shige was the real heiress who had been taken back by the wealthy Lu family. During the apocalypse, she worked hard and earnestly to take care of the entire family.
Unfo...
Bai Qianqian raised her head and looked at Wu Zhuo, and subconsciously her whole body trembled slightly.
Wu Zhuo looked at Bai Qianqian without any hesitation, his eyes were full of disgust and mockery.
Bai Qianqian looked away silently, she stroked her lower abdomen with her hand, trying to stay calm, and quietly moved towards Shen Zehuai.
Next to Wu Zhuo, Wu Jiali, who was wearing a dark green cheongsam, also sat down.
As an elder, Wu Jiali took the initiative to greet Shen Zehuai as soon as she sat down: "Xiao Shen, I heard that you are in charge of a new energy project that Shen's is currently working on with the government. You are really a young and capable person, not inferior to your father."
Shen Zehuai put on a polite smile and said politely: "No, no, Aunt Wu, you are too polite. I am just helping my dad."
Wu Jiali pursed her lips and smiled, then she changed the subject and said with concern: "You young people, you are busy with work, but you can't neglect your family... You are not young anymore, and you should have someone at home who understands you and takes care of you, so that your mother can feel more at ease."
Instantly, everyone at the table looked at Shen Zehuai, especially Wu Zhuo, who raised a suggestive smile at the corner of her mouth and blinked at Shen Zehuai.
The smile on Shen Zehuai's face faded a few times, and he stretched out his long arm, put his arm on Bai Qianqian's slender shoulders, and replied: "Auntie Wu, what are you talking about? By the way, I forgot to introduce you. This is my girlfriend, Bai Qianqian."
Then he pointed to Bai Lulu who was sitting on the other side and said, "This is my girlfriend's sister."
Wu Zhuo understood the hint in Shen Zehuai's words, the smile on her face froze, and she silently clenched the glass in her hand.
She thought to herself, these two sisters are so shameless that they can even do such a thing as sharing the same husband!
Wu Jiali's expression remained unchanged. She didn't even look at Bai Qianqian. She just said to Shen Zehuai in a tone of someone who had experienced it, "You are at the age of playing, and I know that. But, when you have had enough fun, you will have to settle down. You still have to find a girl of equal status to marry."
Shen Zehuai smiled when he heard this, and considering that Wu Jiali was the elder of the Wu family, he did not refute it at all.
Then Wu Jiali turned her gaze to Tang Shiqi who was standing beside her and said affectionately, "Shiqi is here too. Aunt Wu hasn't seen you for a long time. You are getting prettier and prettier! Bring Zhou Ran to play at home when you have time. Auntie has learned a few new dishes recently. I will cook them for you guys to try sometime."
Facing Wu Jiali's warm show of goodwill, Tang Shiqi showed a decent smile and said nothing else, just nodded and said: "Thank you Aunt Wu for your concern."
She knew that Wu Jiali had been pursuing Zhou Ran's uncle for so many years, but love is unrequited, and as a junior, she didn't want to get involved.
Wu Jiali turned her gaze to Xia Shige and Xia Jianing beside Tang Shiqi, and asked curiously, "Shiqi, are these two your friends?"
Before Tang Shiqi could speak, Wu Zhuo pointed at Xia Shige and said, "Aunt, this is Miss Xia whom I mentioned to you before. She is Wu Yu and I's neighbor."
Wu Jiali was stunned when she heard this. Wu Zhuo had told her before that Wu Yu had a crush on a girl from an ordinary family next door named Xia...
Thinking of this, Wu Jiali looked at Xia Shige with a little more scrutiny in her eyes——
She is beautiful and has good manners, but she is from an ordinary family after all... Wu Yu is the most outstanding one among the younger generation of the Wu family. If nothing unexpected happens, he will also be the next person in power in the Wu family. With Xia Shige's background, she is definitely not worthy of him.
Xia Shige felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Wu Jiali. She frowned slightly, not knowing what these people were up to. So she lowered her eyes, looked at her nose and her heart, and said nothing.
Xia Jianing lowered her head and remained silent. Since Xia Shige didn't speak, she didn't speak either.
Wu Zhuo looked at Xia Shige and Xia Jianing who kept their heads down and said nothing. He couldn't help but sneer and said meaningfully, "Nowadays, anyone can show up at an upper-class banquet. If you can't fit in, don't try to fit in... Miss Xia, don't you agree?"
Her words were full of innuendo, and even the sisters Bai Qianqian and Bai Lulu looked a little uncomfortable.
Xia Shige raised her eyebrows when she heard this, but before she could say anything, Tang Shiqi was already unhappy.
