Li Susu was blind, falling for a scumbag. For three years, she poured her heart and money into supporting her husband while he studied abroad. She even tirelessly took care of all the household cho...
Bai Weiwei felt even more furious when she heard these people flattering Li Susu.
I really don't know what's so great about her. She probably got this collaboration by seducing Fu Xingzhou.
These people actually think that she, a woman, has such abilities.
A fierce glint flashed in Bai Weiwei's eyes as she took out her jade pendant and held it in her hand.
She quickly put on a smile, slipped into the crowd, and took the initiative to make friends.
"Miss Li is indeed very capable. Tonight's celebration banquet is truly grand. Congratulations!"
Bai Weiwei raised her wine glass in a gesture of congratulations.
Li Susu paused for a moment, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
She didn't send Bai Weiwei an invitation, so how did this woman get in?
Bai Weiwei ignored Li Susu's stunned expression and spoke again.
"Speaking of which, Miss Li's brother has a close relationship with Xingzhou. This collaboration is probably partly due to their friendship."
"Of course, no matter how you look at it, this is all Miss Li's skill."
"Miss Li, you must come and support me when Xingzhou and I get married."
"The same goes for everyone."
Bai Weiwei swirled her wine glass, her elegant smile masking a selfish desire to assert her dominance.
Upon hearing Bai Weiwei's words, everyone offered their congratulations.
"Miss Bai and President Fu have been engaged for some time, it seems that good news is just around the corner."
“You’re all getting on in years, and it’s time for Mr. Fu to settle down. Miss Bai is a good match for Mr. Fu.”
"They're more than a perfect match; this marriage is a celebrated story in City C."
"Miss Bai is here tonight to keep Mr. Fu company, right?"
Bai Weiwei was in a great mood and shyly smoothed her hair.
"Xingzhou prefers to keep a low profile. Just come and support us when the time comes, and please don't make fun of us."
This sight made all the guests laugh.
Li Susu withdrew her gaze, her expression still calm, but her smile vanished.
Bai Weiwei, however, was unwilling to let go of this good opportunity to humiliate Li Susu, and took the initiative to step forward and offer her a toast.
"Miss Li, I'd like to raise a glass to you, in celebration of the future cooperation between the Fu and Li families."
Li Susu frowned, looking at Bai Weiwei who was approaching her, her eyes filled with wariness.
Li Susu still vividly remembers the scene of red wine being splashed at her last birthday party.
However, her gesture did not stop Bai Weiwei's actions.
The two bumped into each other. Bai Weiwei cried out in pain, pretending to twist her ankle, and casually stuffed the jade pendant from her palm into Li Susu's handbag.
Soon, someone helped Bai Weiwei up and hurriedly asked if she was alright.
Li Susu pursed her lips, knowing perfectly well that this woman was faking it, but she was too lazy to call her out on it.
Tonight's celebration banquet is so important, let's avoid making things complicated.
If you can't afford to offend them, can't you at least avoid them?
Li Susu had no intention of watching Bai Weiwei's performance any longer, so she turned around and prepared to leave.
Bai Weiwei saw her about to leave and immediately exclaimed "Oh dear!"
"My jade pendant is gone!"
"Miss Li, did you take my jade pendant?"
Li Susu paused, looking somewhat lost.
"What jade pendant? Miss Bai, are you perhaps a little drunk?"
Li Susu's tone was sarcastic, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward.
The others exchanged glances, a subtle tension simmering beneath the surface.
Bai Weiwei snorted coldly, "The jade pendant was on me just now, but it disappeared after I fell."
"If you didn't take it, who did?"
