"Sorry, aren't we late?"
At this moment, Li Zefeng and Su Qingyue also entered the banquet hall in a high-profile manner.
Su Qingyue was dressed exquisitely, wearing the expensive dress that Li Zefeng had specially prepared for her, with a sweet and pure smile on her face.
She waited patiently for the exclamations of the crowd.
“…”
Su Qingyue: “?”
But unexpectedly, Su Qingyue did not hear the exclamations and envy from others.
Only then did she realize that the other people present were not even looking at her, but were looking towards the front.
Following everyone's gaze, she actually saw Su Lianyi, who was surrounded by stars!
Su Lianyi's appearance was already outstanding, and because of her practice of Taoism and marrow cleansing, her skin became as white as cream, her eyes were bright and her teeth were white, and her demeanor was quite extraordinary.
In an instant, she overshadowed Su Qingyue who appeared later and stole the show.
Su Qingyue's expression suddenly turned ugly and gloomy.
"Su Lianyi!"
Su Qingyue gritted her teeth and whispered hatefully.
Why is it her again?!
Su Lianyi noticed the eager gaze behind her, glanced over and raised her eyebrows slightly.
Finally, we have waited for these two destined protagonists.
She remembered this plot point, that Su Qingyue would make a stunning appearance at this banquet.
So she deliberately chose to enter before Su Qingyue, just to surpass Su Qingyue.
As expected, Su Qingyue's expression changed unpredictably, and she was obviously stimulated.
"Oh."
Su Lianyi chuckled, picked up the red wine and took a sip, wanting to see what tricks she could come up with.
Not long after, Su Qingyue couldn't help but come over.
"Sister, I'm so sorry."
After Su Qingyue greeted a group of acquaintances, she came over and said in a wronged tone, "All the things that happened before were my fault."
Her apology was neither loud nor soft.
Unsurprisingly, the surrounding guests all looked over curiously.
Su Lianyi folded her arms and watched her performance quietly.
"Since my sister left the Su family, she hasn't been in contact with my parents. They are very worried about your situation. I am the only one who can see you occasionally, so I told them what I saw."
"But I didn't expect that this would cause some misunderstandings on their part. That's why they called you back home a few days ago and wanted to ask you for clarification."
Su Qingyue once again brought up the unpleasant encounter between the Su family members a few days ago and questioned them.
She still tried to clear herself of all charges, saying it was just a misunderstanding and evading the main issue by ignoring her own deliberate misleading.
"oh?"
Seeing that she was still like this, Su Lianyi said "oh" with a half-smile.
The others also heard Su Qingyue's words clearly, which attracted many people to come and watch curiously.
Seeing that most people had gathered around, Su Qingyue frowned slightly and said with a hint of accusation, "Maybe my tone was a little excited during the conversation, but it was also for your own good."
"But you shouldn't have said that Mom would offend a villain and that she should be careful of her life. How could you curse Mom... Hey!"
Su Qingyue changed the subject, taking the moral high ground and condemning Su Lianyi, "After all, you are my mother's biological daughter. She carried me for ten months and gave birth to you. How could someone hate their own mother because of a misunderstanding?"
When the others heard this, they couldn't help but whisper to each other.
"No way, cursing your own mother?"
"You have such a beautiful appearance, but you are such a vicious and ungrateful person inside?"
"Tsk, an adopted daughter is more filial than a biological daughter!"
Because of Su Qingyue's moral accusations, many people gradually changed their stunning initial impression of Su Lianyi.
"Almost."
Su Lianyi was too lazy to play along with her and asked directly, "Did they really misunderstand you, or did you deliberately let them misunderstand you?"
Su Qingyue's expression froze.
Without waiting for Su Qingyue's reply, Su Lianyi questioned, "They suspect I'm being kept by a wealthy sponsor? But you clearly knew that Gu Zhan had personally admitted to being engaged to me, so why didn't you explain this to the Su family?"
"They suspect I'm just putting on an act, pretending to be mysterious, but my account has an officially certified Taoist priest certificate. The Su family doesn't often go online, so shouldn't you, a popular female artist, always keep an eye on public opinion?"
"Others may misunderstand these two things, but you will never misunderstand them."
Su Lianyi was clear and articulate, and she exposed Su Qingyue's clumsy lies in just two sentences.
She raised the corners of her lips slightly, and as Su Qingyue's face became increasingly embarrassed, she pressed on, "So, it was you who deliberately let the Su family and the viewers of the dating show misunderstand me."
Everyone else's eyes turned to Su Qingyue.
"Oh, so it's my adopted daughter's little trick."
"If that's the case, if she had just said a few more words, this misunderstanding wouldn't have happened."
"So this is a misunderstanding?"
Su Qingyue opened her mouth, but was left speechless, and her face gradually turned red.
"No, I..."
Seeing that her reputation was damaged, Su Qingyue hurriedly explained to everyone else and no longer cared about Su Lianyi.
Seeing that she was preoccupied with herself, Su Lianyi smiled, turned around and left decisively.
She glanced around and quickly found Gu Zhan, who stood out from the crowd at the banquet.
As the heir of the Gu family, he has always been the focus of the banquet.
Su Lianyi walked to Gu Zhan's side. Gu Zhan had dealt with other guests who came to greet him, and then he and Su Lianyi went to the corner to rest.
