That's what Shen Wei'er was thinking, but on the surface, she acted like the girl next door when talking to the boy.
Even though they weren't that far apart in age, Shen Wei'er still liked to act mature, even though guys generally prefer petite girls, like Alice...
She greatly admired Alice's appearance and background, but these were things she couldn't change. Since she couldn't change them, she would use her own abilities to make her life more enjoyable.
She defeated those who had harmed her so badly, one by one!
"Don't you want to attend that banquet? I've heard that Alice is going to make a big show of it this time."
Alice invited everyone that Shinno Tsuki knew; she really went to great lengths to do so!
If Chen Xiuyu still didn't understand such provocation, he'd be a fool. The feeling of his things being constantly discussed really annoyed him.
Enraged, he shook off Shen Weier's hand. So what if she was the school beauty with the same name as Alice? She shouldn't talk about Yue like that.
His protective nature made his tone noticeably less friendly.
"Alright, I understand your good intentions. I'll go see it. How could I not go after receiving the message? Besides, their lackey is asking me about it now, right?"
Chen Xiuyu emphasized the word "follower" heavily, deliberately provoking the woman.
Even though Shen Wei'er's beautiful face was almost contorted with anger, she still smiled sweetly.
"You misunderstood me. I just came to relay a message. Now that you know, I'll be leaving."
Having been lectured, Shen Wei'er naturally left first. Why would she stay here and wait to be humiliated?
After everyone left, Chen Xiuyu threw his pistol aside and soaked in the bathtub, lost in thought. He was, to put it simply, very depressed.
He was unhappy because Yue was his lover and they were very close, but why couldn't he feel her presence?
Did they choose the distance?
He immediately wanted to deny it when he voiced such a thought, because no one likes others talking about their relationship like that, and he was no exception.
If that person really is his rival, he seems to have become like that woman, somewhat expectant. What will Yue do? Will she choose him or him...?
After finishing his thoughts, Chen Xiuyu closed his eyes, letting the water droplets fall on his shoulders without moving. He had been really too tired lately.
The next morning, Chen Xiuyu appeared at the Ai family's house as promised, but he used the identity of a human hunter.
Upon entering the Ai family home, the scent inside was that of some vampires, and it was somewhat pungent.
Ordinary humans might not be able to smell it, but for him, it was all too familiar.
Adeline and his daughter Alice stood at the door to greet the distinguished guests.
Even if some are vampires disguised as humans, they don't care as long as they don't harm people.
The main thing about a party is to have fun, right?
They specially invited the hunter boy from the Chen family, as well as the Shinno family, the Zhao family, and the Shen family, to make this a grand occasion.
That is to let them know that his daughter is going to marry the most noble prince of the Kamino family, and only his daughter is worthy of him; no one else is.
It's strange, really. You could just call this a noble feast, but how could someone like Chen Xiuyu possibly be in such a place? They couldn't figure it out.
But since the other party didn't say anything, there was nothing for me to say either, so I could only endure the sour taste.
He looked like a typical rich young master, but he was clearly uneducated, speaking in a frivolous and thoughtless manner.
"Oh, who is this? It's Chen Xiuyu. Oh, I remember he went to the same school as me, right?"
"Haha, I really don't know how he got into that school. Maybe he studied hard for a long time before he got in?"
A bunch of guys got together and chatted, talking about other people's perfectly normal things.
But the topics they discussed were so jarring that even a normal person would probably find them unpleasant to hear.
But Chen Xiuyu seemed to be an iron man. No matter how others ridiculed him, he wouldn't say a word. He only knew to pay attention to Shinno Tsuki.
He said coldly, "Let go."
Because that rich young master was holding Chen Xiuyu's hand tightly, behaving in an extremely uncivilized manner.
Unfortunately, because his family was wealthy, no one around him dared to say anything and could only lower their heads.
The rich young master chuckled disdainfully, even groping Chen Xiuyu's hand, and said in a thuggish manner...
"I think you're quite good-looking too, but it's a shame you're gay."
But being gay has its advantages too, don't be discouraged, your brother won't laugh at you, hahaha.
"Oh, right, that kid, I don't think he's any good either. Why don't you come with me? I can make you happy too."
Immediately afterward, his underlings also laughed, laughing at his overestimation of his abilities and at the fact that he actually came when invited.
Perhaps their voices were too noisy, because even Alice, who was standing at the door, heard them. But why would Alice bother to pay attention to them? After all, they were her rivals in love!
She glanced at him briefly, and the bullied boy turned back to talk to the guests.
Aside from Alice herself, everyone present knew perfectly well that the true protagonist was the mysterious boy—Kano Tsuki.
They have a young man who is most likely to become a powerful monarch, and they are waiting for his appearance. No wonder those people can ignore Chen Xiuyu.
Suddenly, Miss Alice's gaze was fixed on the door behind her, and everyone looked in her direction, knowing who had arrived.
Jinno Tsuki was dressed differently than usual today. When he arrived at this interesting place, he was wearing the black suit and black pants that Chen Xiuyu had given him.
Standing next to him, Jiu Mei had been staring at the suit the whole time, finding it an eyesore.
The reason why it's an eyesore is because the clothes it's wearing are an eyesore.
He wanted to strip his clothes off and tear them to shreds so they wouldn't be visible. Why did he want to do that when other clothes would have been more suitable?
His gaze was fixed straight ahead, his expression blank, but only he knew what he was thinking.
He later realized that this feeling was also a manifestation of jealousy…
Since it was a gathering of young people, it was only natural that Shinno Tsuki didn't invite his father.
It's best for the people around him to avoid such dirty places.
"Moon, you've arrived. I've been waiting for you for so long."
