Chapter 285 Chris's Engagement Party
Luo Zhiwei rushed forward to support Bai Yuxin, her eyes filled with worry: "Yuxin, are you alright? You..."
"All of this was said by this man named Paul. Don't believe him. What you see with your own eyes isn't necessarily true. You..."
In fact, she always felt that Paul the butler's words were somewhat credible, otherwise he wouldn't have appeared in front of them as soon as they landed.
What's the point of saying these things on purpose?
Only facts can be shown off, right?
Bai Yuxin forced herself to remain calm as she looked at Luo Zhiwei: "Sister Luo, can I...can I still really trust him? He clearly told me to wait for him, but then he's about to marry another young lady from a different family?"
How can I trust him?
If getting engaged to someone else is a delaying tactic, or a method he came up with, then... she really couldn't condone it.
Bai Yuxin's man is absolutely not allowed to get engaged to any other woman.
If they were really engaged, she would rather not get engaged.
She forced a smile: "Sister Luo, I'm fine. I'll only believe it when he says it himself. We're not like elementary school kids dating, breaking up over a little misunderstanding."
She would only believe it if Chris told her himself.
As long as he tells her that she will never come to the US again, she will consider it a lesson in her life and will never bother Chris again.
Bai Yuxin's sharp gaze swept over them, her eyes piercing as she looked at Paul: "It's no use telling me this, Paul. I know what kind of person you are. I will go myself. As long as Chris says he wants to be with someone else, I, Bai Yuxin, will not interfere."
She's not a cheap person, nor can she not live without a man.
She'll take the man if she wants him, and if not, she'll find someone else.
Lu Jingxiao looked at her with newfound respect: "Not bad, she's a child of the Bai family."
I used to think Bai Yuxin was just a delicate young girl, but I never expected her to say something like that. Not bad.
Paul's butler was somewhat alarmed; Bai Yuxin seemed different from before.
She used to be so gentle and sweet, even needing Chris to protect her. I never expected her to become so strong now.
Unfortunately, the Chris family doesn't need a young mistress from China, nor does it need a young mistress from a family of unequal social standing.
From any perspective, Bai Yuxin is not a suitable candidate.
He smiled slightly and said, "Since Miss Bai insists on going, then go ahead. As for what you will see, that is not something I can be responsible for."
Perhaps only after she sees it with her own eyes will she completely give up.
That's fine too.
Young Master Chris will always belong to the Chris family, and everything about him should be the best in the world. A woman like Bai Yuxin is not worthy of him.
Gu Beixiao said calmly, "Then let's hurry up and leave. Why waste time here?"
**
Chris Manor is decorated in a romantic and dreamy style from the entrance to the villa area, making it the perfect wedding venue for any girl's dreams.
Standing here, Bai Yuxin already believed that Chris was really going to get engaged.
It seems... perhaps this trip was just her wishful thinking.
Lu Jingxiao's face was as black as lightning. He really hadn't expected that Chris would be so untrustworthy.
A man who doesn't keep his word is simply not worthy of being called a man.
Chris really went too far in toying with a woman.
It completely shattered his worldview.
shameless!
Bai Yuxin walked in with a pale face and saw that the manor was full of guests, all of whom were friendly business partners of the Chris family.
It seems he really is getting engaged.
Lu Jingxiao remained expressionless the entire way. If this scene still didn't prove anything, then something truly sinister was going on.
Before he could say anything, the patriarch of the Chris family appeared before him.
A large group of people followed behind him, who appeared to be members of the Chris family.
The patriarch of the Chris family, who is also Chris's grandfather, is a man whose authority is not to be challenged. He controls every young master of the Chris family and is the absolute center of power.
He originally thought Chris was different, but unexpectedly, he compromised just like him.
He's not a real man.
"Mr. Lu, I've heard so much about you. When I heard you were coming to the US, I immediately sent someone to invite you to my grandson's engagement party. You're about the same age, so you're bound to become good friends."
When Chief Chris saw Bai Yuxin, his expression changed drastically. He snorted coldly, "Miss Bai, if I remember correctly, you were not invited to today's banquet. This is my grandson Chris's engagement banquet. It is inappropriate for your ex to be here. I hope you can leave as soon as possible."
Bai Yuxin almost lost her balance.
Luo Zhiwei held her tightly, giving her strength, but she also glared sharply at Chief Chris: "Since you said your grandson is engaged, why haven't I seen the main characters? Are neither of the main characters here?"
Chief Chris looked Luo Zhiwei up and down, a hint of disdain in his eyes, seemingly very unhappy that she had interrupted him.
"Mr. Lu, this is your woman. She seems to be a little ignorant of etiquette."
Such women would be discarded or punished by the Chris family.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingxiao immediately pulled Luo Zhiwei into his arms, showing her with his actions whether it was possible or not.
"Elder Chief, whether my people know the rules or not is all my doing. Who gives you the right to criticize her?"
"you...."
The old clan chief had never been so disrespected before.
However, they still had to give Lu Jingxiao face. Even though he wasn't from the US, his influence in the US during those years couldn't be ignored.
"I can't say anything about your people, but..." The old patriarch began to speak sarcastically, adopting the demeanor of an elder: "If this were someone from the Chris family, they probably wouldn't be so unruly. Unruly people should be punished until they obey."
Upon hearing this, Luo Zhiwei didn't indulge him. She looked at the old patriarch with suspicion, sizing him up from all sides: "M country's history isn't that long, so how come they raised a feudal remnant like you? Rules, what rules?"
"Did I commit a grave offense against you, or did I send a friendly greeting to your parents, and you still say I don't know the rules?"
Gu Beixiao was somewhat taken aback; Weiwei was quite different from before.
This is completely different from before.
The old clan chief's face was so dark it was unbearable to look at.
"you...."
Gu Beixiao interrupted him directly: "Elder Chief, it's not your place to lecture my sister. She was waiting on the tarmac before she even got off the plane, and this is the attitude she has when she arrives?"
Who are you...?
Gu Beixiao's eyes were arrogant: "Gu Beixiao."
"You and the Gu family..."
"He is the young master that the eldest son of the Gu family just recognized, and Luo Zhiwei is his younger sister."
The old clan chief's sarcastic words were already on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them back.
"Since you are all distinguished guests, please make yourselves at home."
He wanted to leave, but at this point, it wasn't so easy to leave.
“Elder Chief, we’ve come all this way, so we should at least be allowed to see the real guests, Chris and that young lady from the Iman family… I’d also like to see how well-matched they are.”
This is what Lu Jingxiao really needs to do.
For no other reason than that silly girl Bai Yuxin, whether she gives up or finds a way out is up to them.
The old patriarch gave Bai Yuxin a meaningful look, then instructed the people behind him: "Go and invite Chris and Iman out. Tell them that distinguished guests have arrived from China."
