"Ling Chuan, I'm so sorry I'm late."
At that moment, a clear and ethereal voice suddenly resounded throughout the hall.
boom--
A commotion immediately broke out around them, and everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
A beautiful woman walked gracefully towards the entrance, her delicate face and slender figure exuding a charm that was both innocent and alluring. At least most of the young men present couldn't help but be captivated by her stunning beauty.
Tsk!
It's that innocent little white lotus from the Ji family!
Yu Wan frowned again and said sarcastically, "What day is it today? Why are all sorts of demons and monsters gathered here?"
Meng Shen smiled, he didn't know what was going on either, he was also very desperate and helpless.
In the ensuing silence, Ji Yun Chu slowly walked to Gao Ling Chuan's side, intimately and familiarly taking his arm, basking in the attention of everyone present. Her beautiful eyes swept around, then suddenly landed on Tang Yue, her body stiffening as she exclaimed in shock, "Tang Yue, what are you doing here?"
Wasn't he bankrupt? Who let him in? Did he discover what she did at Tang's? A flood of thoughts rushed through Ji Yun Chu's mind in an instant. Her beautiful eyes widened in shock, and her fingers clenched slightly in unease. She desperately tried to reassure herself that Tang Yue shouldn't have discovered the truth, after all, she had kept it so secret.
Finally, she forced a smile and managed to say, "What a coincidence."
With a single sentence, everyone's attention was easily drawn to Tang Yue, and gossip began to circulate.
My God!
What a show!
Ji Yun Chu and Tang Yue have just broken off their engagement.
There are also rumors that Ji Yun Chu and Gao Ling Chuan are about to get engaged.
Gao Lingchuan and Tang Yue have been rivals for many years.
Yu Wan and Tang Yue booked a room together that night...
It started off like a chaotic battleground, was it really necessary to be so intense?!
In no time, everyone had already imagined a love quadrangle story that would last a million words.
Tang Yue remained composed, raising his eyes with a smile and giving Ji Yun Chu a cool, indifferent glance, which served as his response. His lips held the same polite, faint smile as always, exuding an air of refined elegance that left no room for criticism.
For a moment, everyone had the illusion that the other party was still the unapproachable young master of the Tang family.
Even when a tiger is fallen into the plains, it is still the king of the forest.
With the Tang family's extensive network of connections, who can guarantee that Tang Yue won't one day make a comeback and return to his peak?
Although most of the people present were spoiled brats, they were also intelligent and sensible. They looked at each other, deciding to re-evaluate their attitude towards Tang Yue.
But most importantly...
We still have to look to the eldest sister, Yu Wan!
Glancing at the three people at the center of the conversation, Yu Wan's eyes revealed a hint of impatience. "What are you all standing here for? Are you filming a TV show? Go to the film studio! Who are you trying to impress by being a monkey here?"
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly froze.
Everyone immediately fell silent, fearing they might get into trouble.
Ji Yun Chu's expression froze for a moment, then she clenched her fingers angrily. She and Yu Wan had never gotten along, not only in terms of personality but also in terms of appearance.
The two are completely unrelated by blood, yet they bear a striking resemblance. The difference lies in the fact that Yu Wan's beauty is arrogant, radiant, and possesses a strong, assertive aura—so beautiful it's almost aggressive.
She is truly the most beautiful of all!
When the two stand together, her appearance often appears plain and unremarkable.
but.
Fortunately, although the Ji family was only a second-tier aristocratic family in Jiangcheng, they still had a rich history and deep roots. Compared to the Yu family, a nouveau riche family, although they outnumbered the top-tier aristocratic families in terms of wealth, they were secretly despised. Her strong sense of superiority made her feel very confident when facing Yu Wan.
Ji Yun Chu smiled brightly. "Miss Yu, we're all here to have fun, why be so pushy and make the atmosphere so tense?" With that, she tilted her head, blinked her bright eyes, and looked charming and cute.
However, in fact...
Yu Wan didn't even glance at her.
Having been humiliated in public, Ji Yun Chu nearly bit her teeth to pieces.
Having come this far, Meng Shen also felt it was pointless. He had come here for a serious competition, not to watch a show, so he immediately asked with dissatisfaction, "What does Second Young Master Gao mean? Are we still going to compete or not?"
"Tsk... If you can't beat me, just admit defeat. I'm in a hurry to go home and have dinner with my old man." Yu Wan raised her eyebrows, her arrogant tone suffocating.
One sentence provoked Gao Lingyang to jump up and down, Gao Lingchuan glanced sideways, and the others were surprised.
Even Tang Yue, his beautiful peach blossom eyes quickly flashed with intense interest.
This shooting competition had already become common knowledge in Jiangcheng's high society, and the story dates back to a month ago. Meng Shen and Gao Lingyang both took a liking to the same girl and decided to compete fairly, agreeing that the loser would withdraw.
After the news broke, public opinion was almost unanimously against it.
Gao Lingyang possesses exceptional talent in shooting competitions, capable of hitting a target from a hundred paces. Meng Shen, on the other hand, is nothing more than a playboy who only knows how to race cars, squander money, and chase girls; the difference between the two is like heaven and earth.
A few days ago, news broke that Meng Shen had brought in reinforcements. Therefore, everyone is eager to see who he will find to defeat Gao Lingyang, who won third place in an international professional competition.
Gao Lingyang had always disliked the spoiled brats in Jiangcheng, and he especially looked down on Yu Wan, who had mingled among them and become their leader. He glanced at Yu Wan contemptuously and said, "Meng Shen, why did you bring in just any Tom, Dick, or Harry? Some people should have some self-awareness. This isn't a bar where someone with a bit of money can act like a boss. A pheasant can't become a phoenix just by changing its feathers."
His words not only mocked Yu Wan, the daughter of a nouveau riche, for being uncouth, but also implied that she was only fit to frequent low-class places like bars and not to come to such an elegant and noble place.
