Chapter 130: Disruption
There was a hint of tentativeness in Nie Jinxi's tone. She also wanted to know whether Master Li Jiu would come today!
Nie Yao saw the glint in her eyes, as if he had guessed her intention. He smiled and said, "He has something to do and can't come... But where is your male companion Ji Minghuan? Why didn't he come with you?"
Nie Yao returned the attack calmly, and Nie Jinxi's expression instantly turned ugly.
But she quickly adjusted her expression and smiled nonchalantly, "Minghuan is busy with his business and doesn't have time to come, but he sent someone to deliver a gift!"
Nie Yao was too lazy to care whether Ji Minghuan had sent a gift or not, but at least Ji Minghuan was not at the party tonight, so out of sight, out of mind!
"Tsk, Nie Jinxi, just brag. When has Ji Minghuan ever accompanied you to such a public event?" At this moment, a familiar voice reached everyone's ears.
Everyone turned their heads to look and saw Lin Anqi, wearing a limited edition Dior dress, walking over, followed by a maid, holding a large and exquisite birthday gift box in her hand.
Nie Jinxi's face changed again when Lin Anqi sabotaged her in front of everyone. She finally suppressed her anger and didn't lose her temper on the spot.
Nie Jinxi's two best friends also disliked Lin Anqi. Seeing that she always managed to wear limited-edition clothes before them, they couldn't help but sneer, "Lin Anqi, even if Ji Minghuan is not good enough, he has accompanied our Jinxi to more than one charity auction and other events. And you, you throw yourself at Ji Minghuan, and he doesn't even look at you!"
"That's right. No matter how nicely you dress or how expensive a limited edition bag you carry, you think you're a rich lady. You don't even realize you're just the stepdaughter of the Nie family!"
"Don't say that. Her last name is Lin. The Lin family is from a nouveau riche family. Everyone knows that. Hahaha..."
Lin Anqi's face turned pale from being bullied by them. She could only raise her chin and sneer, "So what? My last name is Lin. I know who my biological father and mother are. My bloodline is upright. It's like some people whose backgrounds are unknown and who don't know if they are bastards. They just stay in the Nie family and even want to take over..."
She once again said the word "bastard" in front of Nie Jinxi, shocking everyone around Nie Jinxi so much that their eyes widened and they were speechless for a moment.
Nie Jinxi wanted to pour the glass of champagne in her hand on Lin Anqi's head, but she held back. On the surface, she still had to maintain her graceful and elegant demeanor as a rich girl. Besides, this was Yu Wanqing's birthday party. If she fought with Lin Anqi in front of everyone, it would be a disrespect to Yu Wanqing!
"Lin Anqi, please watch your words!" Nie Jinxi suppressed her anger and said to Lin Anqi through gritted teeth.
Lin Anqi shrugged fearlessly, walked straight to the buffet counter and poured herself a glass of champagne.
Nie Yao couldn't help but look at Lin Anqi again, secretly confused in her heart. This Lin Anqi could call Nie Jinxi a bastard with such confidence, could it be that she knew something?
She was just thinking about when to ask Lin Anqi about this when Yu Wanqing came down from upstairs and said with a smile, "You're all here. What are you talking about? You seem so happy."
Everyone in the living room raised their heads to look at today's protagonist. Nie Yao also looked up and saw Yu Wanqing wearing a light pink silk dress, which made her skin look even whiter than snow.
