"Mom, get up first."
Shi Xuan reached out and helped his mother from the ground to the sofa.
Seeing her son, Yu Die felt like she had found her life-saving straw and grabbed her son's arm: "Xiao Xuan..."
"You are my mother's only hope!"
"Absolutely! You must not let that bastard get anything from the Shi family. Those things belong to you! Do you understand? Otherwise, Mom will die with regrets!"
Shi Yan's mother Jiang Yu and Shi Yan will always be a thorn in her heart that cannot be removed and causes unbearable pain.
Shi Xuan pondered for a while, wiped his mother's tears, and said in a deep voice: "Mom, don't worry."
It's just an ordinary birthday party, so what if Shi Yan goes.
All the young men in this aristocratic family circle became his good friends and acquaintances.
How can Shi Yan, who has no connections, compare with him?
* Beijing City.
It was nearly nine o'clock in the evening.
The 50th birthday party was held at the most famous Yacheng Hotel in Beijing.
The host of the banquet generously booked the entire top floor of the hotel as the event venue.
The venue is large and the momentum is loud, but the privacy is extremely well maintained.
Many dignitaries were on the invitation list, and all admission tickets were issued by electronic facial recognition, so there was no need to worry about media personnel sneaking in.
Dazzling crystal chandeliers hang from the glazed ceiling, there is a ROMOSS spiral staircase, a creamy white lacquered buffet table, and a wide variety of gourmet feasts.
Men and women in formal attire were toasting and chatting happily to the elegant piano music.
There is a seating area near the terrace.
Several young women in exquisite high-end clothes sat on the sofa, laughing together, seemingly talking about something interesting——
"Hey, let me tell you something funny. I saw Sheng Yuan's name on the list again."
"What's so strange about this? Wherever Young Master Shi appears, she will definitely be there."
"I've never seen a woman as persistent as her. Young Master Renshi already has a girlfriend. She really has no shame at all."
"If she had any shame, she wouldn't have jumped into the swimming pool to protest. She wanted to use this method to attract Master Shi, but what was the result? Haha."
"By the way, have you heard? A few days ago, Sheng Yuan was taken to the police station for beating someone up!"
"Oh my god! Is this true?"
"Really? I have an uncle who is the deputy chief of the police station. He saw it with his own eyes. And this matter has caused a lot of uproar on the Internet. You didn't see it."
Someone acted like a lady, covered her mouth lightly, and laughed: "Xiao Lin, stop teasing me. You only pay attention to this kind of gossip on the Internet. Aren't you afraid of losing your status?"
"Yeah, don't be like Sheng Yuan and be a female star. It's ridiculous to dance like a clown in public."
"I, I didn't!"
"Alas, she is indeed from a poor and remote village. Even if she becomes rich and moves her whole family to the capital, the vulgarity in her bones cannot be covered up by any amount of fancy jewelry."
“It’s so funny.”
"Oh? Really—how funny is that?"
Just as a few people were laughing and mocking, their conversation was interrupted by the lazy and sweet voice of a girl that came out of nowhere.
Everyone sitting on the sofa paused, looked up, and then widened their eyes——
Sheng Yuan!
The girl was wearing a champagne-colored long dress with an off-shoulder design. The flowing embroidery extended all the way to her waist, which was so slender that it could be pinched in one hand. Her beautiful body lines exuded a fragile beauty.
She didn't even do her hair, she just simply pinned two small crystal hairpins on her temples, just to prevent the loose hair from blocking her eyes.
Although she was wearing restrained and gentle tones, she looked bright and glowing, attractive and noble.
"Come on, tell me more. I really want to know what it is that is so interesting that makes you laugh to death."
The Sheng family is not native to Beijing.
When Sheng's father was young, he was just a small salesman. After saving some money, he chose to start from scratch and finally got to his current position.
He had ideas and courage. His business grew bigger and bigger, and his power became more and more important. The city where he originally lived was no longer enough to support his dreams, so a year ago, he decided to move his family to Beijing, where there were more opportunities.
In the circle of wealthy and famous ladies, Sheng Yuan is an outsider.
The daughters of wealthy families were proud and considered themselves superior. Even though the Sheng family's business was growing, they still looked down on Sheng Yuan, never invited her to afternoon tea parties, and often privately mocked her for being a country bumpkin from the wilderness.
"Well, let me be clear by the way, who are you talking about, poor and remote, very tacky at heart?"
The girl blinked her bright almond-shaped eyes and held her slender white chin calmly, with no expression of joy or anger on her face.
Everyone froze, feeling vaguely embarrassed as if they had said something bad about someone behind their back and then been caught in the act.
One of the girls was very brave. She was the woman sitting in the middle of the sofa named Xiaolin who had just been scolded. She gritted her teeth and sneered: "Did we say something wrong?"
"Everyone knows that you're pestering Master Shi."
Sheng Yuan said calmly: "Well, then what?"
"Young Master Renshi has a girlfriend, Sheng Yuan, you are shameless."
"Anything else?"
"…You are shameless."
"Well, anything else?"
"You have no shame!"
"Go on." The girl even yawned.
"Don't think you're great just because you have a few stinky bucks!"
Hearing this, Sheng Yuan couldn't help but curl her red lips: "It's comfortable to hear this."
“…”
"That's all."
The girl slowly raised her hand and turned the phone in her palm in a beautiful pattern.
Everyone then realized that the screen was on and showed that the audio was recorded successfully.
They were stunned: "You, you recorded it?!"
"Yes." Sheng Yuan nodded innocently. She pursed her lips and pointed with her hand: "Let me see."
"You are from the Luo family, the Liu family, the Li family, and the He family. I remember them clearly, right?"
Everyone looked at her warily: "What do you want to do?"
"Nothing, just counting. I will send a few emails to each of your companies later. Don't worry, I can make sure your elders will receive them."
Sheng Yuan curiously tapped her fair chin: "I just don't know how they will react after hearing this."
As soon as he finished speaking, this group of rich young ladies were visibly frightened and panicked.
Although they usually excluded and isolated Sheng Yuan, they only dared to discuss Sheng Yuan in private. Now in Beijing, the Sheng family is at its peak and almost no one dared to provoke them.
The parents of several of them even told them to take the initiative to please the eldest daughter of the Sheng family, and it would be best if they could make friends with her.
But now, they were caught red-handed by Sheng Yuan.
The timid ones were so scared that they started crying: "What should I do? If this affects my family's business and my dad finds out, he will beat me to death."
"It's over, my dad will suspend all my cards!"
“…”
