Chapter 119: Little Genius of Logic
Du Anrao glanced at Ye Mengzhen, who was hiding in the corner of the hall and keeping a low profile for unknown reasons, and asked in confusion, "When did you come? I don't think I saw you before."
"When your distant relative gives you a hard time."
"You came quite early, why didn't you come to see us?" Duan Rao said with a turn of his eyes, poking Ye Mengzhen's arm, "You saw my third brother just now, right? How was he? Do you still think he is your idol? Do you feel like your idol has been shattered?"
Ye Mengzhen's whole body froze, and she glared at her angrily. She had tried very hard not to recall what happened tonight, but this person just kept bringing up irrelevant things!
Du Yuxi, who was feeling depressed and finally got rid of the Li family's concern, followed and asked: "What are you talking about?"
When Ye Mengzhen saw Du Yuxi appear, her eyes lit up: "Sister, from now on you are my half-sister. I didn't expect that you are really the daughter of the Li family, and Li Qianxi is actually the daughter of a human trafficker! She has been occupying your place for so many years, snatching your fiancé, and even flirting with other people to ruin your family's reputation. Now, everything is gone, and she was kicked out. It's retribution, it's really retribution!"
When Du Yuxi heard her mention the so-called fiancé again, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, but she said nothing.
Ye Mengzhen didn't notice anything unusual about Du Yuxi. She was beaming with joy and was extremely excited.
"Hahahaha, thank you for inviting me to your birthday party. I really got to watch a good show for free tonight. I might wake up from laughing when I go back to sleep."
"Do you have to be so exaggerated? Come to think of it, isn't your family in J City? Li Qianxi was kicked out of the Li family and severed ties with them. Didn't you hear anything about it beforehand?"
Ye Mengzhen said with regret: "I am studying in S City, right? My useless brother is in J City, but his leg hasn't healed yet. I guess he's still lying at home and getting moldy. He might not be as well-informed as I am."
"Don't worry. Although I'm not in J City, I still have some connections. I will make sure that before you follow your uncle and aunt to J City again, I will spread all the news about you at the banquet today. Let everyone in J City see the true face of that green tea black lotus."
Du Yuxi's eyelids jumped, and she said helplessly: "It's the truth. It doesn't matter how you want to publicize it, as long as you don't exaggerate."
"I understand. The facts are already shocking enough. Too much is as bad as too little. I understand. I understand."
"As for half-sisters, that's not necessary. I already have An'an, and I don't plan to have another sister."
Ye Mengzhen's face was full of disappointment, but he didn't force it.
However, Du Anrao interrupted again in a mean way: "Yes, yes, if you really recognize my fourth sister as your elder sister, you can no longer be our sister-in-law in the future."
Ye Mengzhen's face flushed red, and she raised her hand to hit her, but then she seemed to have thought of something and whispered, "Forget it."
Duan Rao: “???”
Du Yuxi was also a little surprised: "You still like my third brother? Don't you like the type that is fair-skinned and gentle? My third brother doesn't have anything to do with these things in private."
"But he's really handsome, and even more handsome when you look at him up close!" Ye Mengzhen covered her face and wailed, "No, how do you know what type I like?"
Du Yuxi was stunned for a moment, but responded quickly: "Nonsense, my third brother went to our school once when he sent me to register, and you fell in love with him at first sight. Whatever he was like at that time, you must have liked him that way. But he is really not like that in private. If you are not mentally prepared for this, you will regret it in the future."
"I've made up my mind and I won't regret it." Ye Mengzhen looked determined not to turn back until he hits a wall.
"I was a little surprised at first, but... um..." Ye Mengzhen couldn't help but cover half of her face. "Every time I look at his face, I can't remember anything. So maybe I don't like the type you just mentioned, but as long as he has that face, I like any type. Apart from other things, I can eat an extra bowl of rice just by looking at his face."
Du Yuxi: “…”
[She can even eat an extra bowl of rice. Is this the legendary beauty that is delicious? Is this the power of a beauty queen over a face control person? It’s over. She loves it! ]
Du Yuxi: Phew…
Ye Mengzhen spoke with great enthusiasm in front of the two sisters, as if he wanted to kill Du Yihan right there and then. But in fact, he was very timid and only dared to look at people from a distance and didn't even dare to get close.
Without waiting for Du Anrao and the other man to take her to meet Du Yihan, she ran away early, saying that she had to go back to spread the news.
As the night deepened, the guests who had come to the party left one after another.
Xi Jingyue, who had not participated in all these disputes, only appeared when they were about to leave, and was personally escorted out of the Du family's gate by Du Anrao.
"There were so many guests tonight that I didn't notice Mr. Xi. I was really neglectful."
"It's not your fault. You are the birthday boy. This is the first time you have met these family relatives since you returned to the Du family. There are so many people to deal with, and it is impossible to take care of them all. Besides, I came here with Zhaoyang and the others, so I arrived late anyway."
"You came here with Mr. Li and the others, so why didn't you follow them just now..."
"They have family matters to deal with, so why am I following them? Let's not talk about me. I heard from them that you just fainted. Are you okay? Are you feeling unwell anywhere else?"
Du Anrao was a little embarrassed when Xi Jingyue mentioned his fainting. He laughed dryly and said, "It was just hypoglycemia. I was busy at night and didn't eat, so I fainted. I felt much better after eating."
"Really?" Xi Jingyue had just guessed the reason why Duanrao fainted after learning the whole story from other guests, so he didn't expose her after hearing her say that.
"Then you should be more careful in the future, eat on time, and don't faint from hunger again."
Duanrao's mouth twitched slightly, and for a moment he didn't know whether it was embarrassing to faint from hunger, or more embarrassing to accidentally pout while fortune-telling.
The two of them said goodbye in a relatively friendly atmosphere and did not notice that not far away from them, several people were staring at them with eager eyes.
"Is that the guy? He looks decent, but I don't know what he is like in private. I'll check him out later. If he's a two-faced person, I'll show you how I can deal with him."
Du Hexuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "How are you going to check? Are you going to use your laboratory connections that have existed in the mountains for seven days but have existed in the world for a thousand years?"
Du Yihan also glanced at him with disdain: "It's just a small matter, why do we need them? I can handle it myself."
Du Junyan saw through his brother's thoughts and frowned, "Don't do anything stupid."
"How can it be considered reckless? If he is consistent and has done nothing wrong, he won't be afraid of investigation. If he is afraid of investigation, he must have something to hide, so I will investigate him even more."
Two brothers: “…” Apart from anything else, you are really a little logic genius!
