Lu Yi no longer needs the Lu family!

This is a fact that even a fool could see.

But when these words came from someone else's mouth, especially from a calculating girl like Lin Xiaoya, Qin Fengying simply couldn't stand it.

She has two purposes for staying here.

Firstly, she wanted to find an opportunity to continue Lu Han's plan, but once she lost her phone, she couldn't do anything.

The only thing we can do now is to try to soften our relationship with Lu Yi.

After all, his birthday is the day his mother suffered. It wouldn't be difficult for him to say something polite to gain everyone's sympathy.

To Qin Fengying's surprise, Fan Huijun had been on guard against her all along.

She was not given any chance to get close to Lu Yi.

Therefore, Qin Fengying casually made up an excuse, wanting to fade out of Fan Huijun's sight as soon as possible and patiently wait for the right opportunity.

Lin Xiaoya's appearance was sharp as a needle, instantly piercing through the aura she had created.

Everyone was stunned by the resounding slap.

Hey!

Lu Yi's coming-of-age ceremony is getting more and more interesting, with one good show after another!

Even Lu Baoqi, who originally wanted to slip away, grabbed Su Yu's hand and squeezed into the crowd.

Feeling the probing gazes around her, Lin Xiaoya covered her cheeks, tears streaming down her face, looking like a little white rabbit struggling against her wolf grandmother.

"Mrs. Lu, I was just curious what birthday gift you prepared for Lu Yi, you...you..."

"You didn't prepare anything and you feel embarrassed, but you don't need to take it out on me!"

After saying this, she lowered her head, and the expression on her face beneath her hair became sinister and ferocious.

Qin Fengying was so shocked that she backed away.

After a moment's thought, he coldly countered each move.

"You, you despicable thing, you failed to seduce my son before, and now you want to show off and get close to my son!"

"How could the Lin family have such a shameless daughter like you? I'll tear your mouth apart!"

She stretched out her arm, grabbed a tuft of Lin Xiaoya's hair, and dragged it forcefully in front of her, cursing "bitch, bitch!"

Those ladies who had long wanted to beat up tea girls like Lin Xiaoya secretly clapped and cheered.

Because it was not uncommon for illegitimate daughters to come and claim their inheritance in their families, they unconsciously identified with Qin Fengying.

Seeing this, Fan Huijun pointed at the stunned waitress and angrily said, "Why aren't you pulling them apart right now!"

Gu Huainan was discussing business with some close friends when he heard Lin Xiaoya's painful cries for help. He paused for a moment, then quickly ran over.

At this moment, Qin Fengying was already being held by several female waitresses, but she wrapped Lin Xiaoya's hair around her palm and refused to let go.

"You shameless woman, no matter how much you jump around, you're still just a clown. You've completely disgraced the Lin family, and you still have the nerve to talk about others!"

Qin Fengying, with her hair disheveled and furious, found her elegant attire to be an unsettling constraint, limiting her fighting ability.

Gu Huainan saw that Lin Xiaoya was isolated and helpless.

Everyone was watching the spectacle, but no one stepped forward to help her, not even with a finger.

His face darkened, and he stepped forward, grabbed Qin Fengying's wrist, and twisted it forcefully. "Let go!"

Then he put his arm around Lin Xiaoya's waist, helped her up, and stood tall in front of her.

"Mrs. Lu, that's enough!"

Qin Fengying was so provoked by Lin Xiaoya's words that she completely lost control, and then she saw how sincere Gu Huainan's actions were in protecting Lin Xiaoya.

With a twist of his waist, he shook off the servants of the Fan family.

He curled his lips into a cold smile and mocked, "Huainan, Lin Xiaoya slept with my son Lu Han. Don't you find her disgusting?"

The audience gasped in surprise.

Wang Chan's jaw nearly dropped to the ground.

The young masters and ladies who had witnessed her mocking Liang Shiyue at the doorway now wore amused expressions.

"We don't know what Lu Yi's ex-girlfriend was like, but Lin Xiaoya is truly filthy!"

"This kind of scheming woman deserves to be beaten!"

"No wonder Madam Lu was so furious. If it were my mother, she would have wanted to beat her to death."

"Exactly! Does she really think all girls from families like ours are as promiscuous as her? I think she watches too many TV dramas and has lost her mind!"

"But what's going on between Gu Huainan and that Lin Xiaoya?"

"Oh my, they're alumni. Gu Huainan even pursued Lin Xiaoya, but Lin Xiaoya didn't agree..."

"It's like a weight is hanging over my eyes. I've opened my eyes! How dare Lin Xiaoya reject my idol, Brother Huainan? Is it because she's pretentious and knows how to use a high-pitched consonant? That's outrageous!"

...

Lu Yi had no idea why Lin Xiaoya had turned out this way.

He felt extremely sad for Liang Shiyue.

Fan Shenglun saw through her intentions but didn't say anything. He could tell at a glance what kind of girl she was up to.

Moreover, he didn't believe that Lin Hongtao, that cunning old man who was even more shrewd than a monkey, couldn't understand it.

However, as for Lin Xiaoya's character and behavior, that is none of the Lin family's business. In a place like Jiangzhou, saying one more word only creates another target.

There's nothing wrong with turning a blind eye to some things.

Seeing that Lu Yi was about to go over and mediate the fight, Fan Shenglun grabbed his hand and raised it high, saying, "Distinguished guests, I apologize for keeping you waiting so long!"

"Now, please move aside and follow me to the banquet hall for a meal..."

He glanced at Gu Huainan casually, then gripped Lu Yi's hand tightly, keeping him by his side and never leaving his side.

Qin Fengying wanted to follow, but when she looked down, she realized that she was even more disheveled than when she lost her phone!

"Yi'er... my Yi'er!"

She pounded the ground in frustration, enveloped by a deep sense of powerlessness.

Gu Huainan naturally understood what Fan Shenglun's look was telling him.

If it weren't for the fact that the Gu and Fan families were relatives, he believed that Fan Shenglun would never have gone to such lengths.

He released Lin Xiaoya and silently took a step back. "It's time to eat cake. Let's go!"

"Wait a minute!"

Lin Xiaoya didn't want to suffer this beating for nothing. If she could stay by Gu Huainan's side, tonight would be the time to truly make a name for herself in Jiangzhou's wealthy circles.

"Huainan, I'm a little tired. Could you take me home?"

Knowing that Gu Huainan would be unable to escape, she deliberately made this request.

Logically speaking, if the other party cannot agree immediately, they will settle for second best and take good care of her first.

In this way, she not only made a great appearance at Lu Yi's coming-of-age ceremony, but also got involved with Gu Huainan, killing two birds with one stone!

"No, I have things to do. If you can't drive, I can call a designated driver for you..."

Gu Huainan finished speaking in a nonchalant manner and left without looking back.

Apart from the servants cleaning up the trash, only Lin Xiaoya and Qin Fengying remained at the scene.

A gust of autumn wind blew by, and the two of them shivered at the same time.

"It's so cold!"

Lin Xiaoya hugged herself tightly, doubting that what she was hearing was true.

"It's so cold, winter is coming!"

Qin Fengying tried to stand up several times but couldn't, so she simply sat down on the grass, picked up a glass of red wine that someone had left behind, and gulped it down.
