Yun Wanqing and Chen Lizhen walked out of the company building, cursing and swearing.
"Why are you criticizing me?" Chen Lizhen retorted. "It's Huo Beichen who's causing you trouble. If you're so capable, go argue with him!"
"How dare you talk to me like that?" Yun Wanqing retorted, "I got you such a lucrative contract, and you can't even handle Huo Beichen!"
"How many years have you been married into the Huo family? Have you kicked Huo Beichen out yet?" Yun Wanqing's face was full of contempt.
Chen Lizhen was speechless after being rebuked.
She had indeed been trying to find a way to deal with Huo Beichen, but she hadn't been able to win.
"Qingqing, my good daughter," she immediately softened, coaxing with a smile, "Mom may not be very capable, but don't I have you?"
"You hurry up and go find Young Master Lin, get this contract signed, and we'll be able to slap Huo Beichen in the face!"
Yun Wanqing gave a soft snort and drove away.
She called Lin Zhibai and asked him to meet her that evening.
He gave her the address of the bar, saying that he was going to have a get-together with some friends that night.
Yun Wanqing couldn't stop smiling; Lin Zhibai was preparing to introduce her into his circle of friends.
It's the ultimate expression of love and romance.
Yun Wanqing dressed herself up specially, wearing the latest haute couture dress of the season.
Bags, shoes, and makeup are naturally the most fashionable.
When you let her stand in front of the mirror, she feels like she's glowing.
"How's the effect? Does it look both beautiful and elegant?" she asked the shop assistant next to her.
"It looks good, it's very pretty." The shop assistant nodded hurriedly, but every expression on her face betrayed her insincerity.
“To be honest,” Yun Wanqing said with a stern face, “otherwise I won’t pay.”
“Um… well,” the sales clerk stammered, “this dress might look better on someone a size larger.”
Yun Wanqing pursed her lips tightly, her gaze fixed on the area below her collarbone.
So what if you think her size is too small?
It's that simple!
"Give me 10 pads!"
That evening, Yun Wanqing, wearing a size 36, swayed as she walked into the bar's private room.
Upon closer inspection, his eyes immediately blazed with fury.
Look at who's sitting inside.
Yun Suiwan, Sheng Nanyin, Lu Dongjue, Shen Xinghui, Gu Fanyan, Huo Beichen...
These were all the people she least wanted to see!
All eyes fell on her, filled with surprise, doubt, disdain... a complex mix of emotions.
“Zhibai, you didn’t tell her that we’re here to comfort Dongjue today,” Shen Xinghui said. “It’s not the kind of gathering she’s thinking of, a place to hook up with rich guys.”
Yun Wanqing hated Shen Xinghui the most.
Although he carries the title of "Young Master of the Shen Family," he is actually an illegitimate child who has nothing but the Shen family name.
“I dress like this every day,” Yun Wanqing retorted without any politeness. “If Young Master Shen doesn’t like it, it must be because you don’t have enough contact with women.”
After saying that, she arrogantly tossed her head and sat down next to Lin Zhibai.
Her verbal sparring wasn't over yet, "Sister Fanyan, why did you come alone? Where's that refined and handsome man from last time?"
"What does this have to do with you?" Gu Fanyan retorted without any politeness.
Yun Wanqing immediately put on a wronged look, "I was just concerned about you."
"Did I say something wrong?" she asked Lin Zhibai, looking at him with a wronged expression.
“Hey,” Lin Zhibai glanced at everyone, “Xiao Qing is my fiancée, so you all need to watch your words.”
Everyone silently rolled their eyes in their hearts.
"Knock knock." A knocking sound suddenly came from outside.
The door was pushed open, and a refined and handsome man stood outside with a smile on his lips.
“I knew he would be there!” Yun Wanqing was the first to speak.
Then, Gu Fanyan stood up, looking puzzled: "Senior?"
The person who arrived was none other than Murong Mo.
“Fanyan,” his voice was gentle, “I saw you come in just now, so I came to say hello.”
"Don't just say hello," Yun Wanqing stepped forward, pulled the person in, and pushed them next to Gu Fanyan. "Since you're here, let's play together."
"Is it okay?" Murong Mo looked at Gu Fanyan, his eyes filled with anticipation.
But his attitude was very humble, giving the impression that he wouldn't be angry even if Gu Fanyan asked him to leave.
Because of this, Gu Fanyan found it difficult to speak.
“Handsome guy, I didn’t have a chance to ask your name last time?” Yun Wanqing asked.
"My name is Murong Mo," he replied politely.
Yun Wanqing feigned surprise, her eyes lighting up. "Fan Yan, Mo, even your names are such a perfect match!"
The others watched Yun Wanqing's performance silently, without saying a word.
Yun Suiwan felt that Yun Wanqing hadn't completely talked nonsense.
Judging from his appearance and demeanor, this Mr. Murong Mo is more reliable than Lin Zhibai.
"Brother Beichen!" As she spoke, Sun Xiaowei walked in with a smile.
She was much more at ease than Murong Mo. She greeted everyone first, and then naturally sat down next to Huo Beichen.
Her gaze, intentionally or unintentionally, fell on Sheng Nanyin: "Miss Sheng is here too?"
Sheng Nanyin sat next to Yun Suiwan in the outermost corner of the sofa, several seats away from Huo Beichen.
She came over because today's discussion was about Grandpa Lu.
She didn't expect Huo Beichen to be there.
"Mmm." She responded softly, not needing to explain too much to Sun Xiaowei.
Yun Suiwan glared fiercely at Lin Zhibai.
Why did he call Yun Wanqing over? They can't talk about what they were supposed to talk about now.
She stood up, ready to leave.
"Sister, don't be in such a hurry to leave," Yun Wanqing said. "Anyone who didn't know better would think you were looking down on Mr. Murong and Miss Sun."
Yun Suiwan bluntly stated, "I just don't like the look of you."
Yun Wanqing was taken aback.
Yun Suiwan's move was too powerful; she couldn't catch it in time.
"Lu Dongjue!" Lin Zhibai said unhappily, "Can't you control her?"
“I can’t control it,” Lu Dongjue replied immediately, without any ambiguity.
Yun Wanqing's eyes immediately reddened and she pouted, "Sister, I know you're unhappy that I'm marrying Zhibai, but we're sisters after all. Even if you don't want to give me your blessing, you can at least give me some face."
With her pitiful appearance, an uninformed person would really think that Yun Suiwan was very cunning.
Lu Dongjue stood up, his cold gaze fixed on Yun Wanqing, as if he could bite her to death.
Lu Dongjue especially hated Yun Wanqing's scheming behavior. He had been deceived too many times in the past, which led to constant misunderstandings with Yun Suiwan.
Yun Suiwan tugged at Lu Dongjue, looking at Yun Wanqing with a half-smile: "Look at what you're saying, I didn't say I was leaving. I wanted to order a few bottles of good wine, to celebrate for you, wasn't I?"
Then she glanced at everyone and said, "None of you are allowed to leave today. I'll treat everyone to drinks."
The implication is that she wants everyone to join her in seeing what else Yun Wanqing wants to act out.
While Yun Suiwan went to order drinks, Yun Wanqing leaned close to Lin Zhibai and whispered, "Brother Zhibai, what are you discussing about Grandpa Lu today?"
