âIndeed, thereâs nothing to say. You just donât dare to agree.âLian Keying smiled as she turned to look at her fiancé beside her. Then, she leaned on the manâs shoulder with a blissful expression.âMy fiancé remembers you. Oh right, he still remembers the man beside you last timeâ¦â
As Lian Keying spoke, she suddenly looked behind Zuo Yue. Seeing that the man did not come with her, she said even more arrogantly,ââI heard that heâs the president of the Jr. Group. Zuo Yue, is your Zuo family actually related to the Jr. Group in Russia? You even managed to hook up with the president of the KP Group. Are you trying to get married? Are your parents planning to sell her? The two of you donât have any real feelings for each other, right? Otherwise, why didnât he even bother to accompany you to a class reunion?â
Zuo Yue looked coldly at Lian Keyingâs guessing and smug expression. She curled her lips and said,ââIf you have the time to speculate about other people, you might as well control your man. If he already has some woman outside and only has to be threatened by you for some reason to accompany you to the class reunion, then it will really be a joke.â
The expression on Lian Keyingâs face instantly froze. Zuo Yue had already walked past them.
Seeing Zuo Yueâs indifferent expression as she walked away, Lian Keying gritted her teeth and glared at the man beside her with hatred. She questioned him in a voice that only he could hear,ââYou really have a woman outside?â
The man looked at her strangely and asked in English,ââWhat do you mean?â
It wasnât that he didnât understand Chinese, but now he looked like he didnât understand. Lian Keying was so angry that she reached out and hit him hard on the arm.âBastard! Iâve even embarrassed myself in front of my classmates! Canât you hide from others when youâre secretly eating outside? Did he have to let others see it? Where am I supposed to put my face?â
The man turned around indifferently and looked inside.âIâve already accompanied you here, yet you still ask for so much? If it wasnât for that incident with you, do you think I would have the patience to accompany you to such a boring gathering? Are you going in? If you donât go in, Iâll leave.â
âYou!â Lian Keying was furious, but she couldnât say anything. She could only grit her teeth and roll her eyes at him, turning him around forcefully.âDonât leave! I even arranged a good show for her today! How could he let her off so easily!â
The man looked impatient, but he held it in. He shook her hand off and walked in without saying a word.
Lian Keying quickly caught up with him. Even though the man was impatient, she held his arm before he walked into the crowd. When they entered the group chat, she leaned against him affectionately and smiled happily in front of everyone.
There was another wave of envious gazes and compliments around her. Lian Keying smiled and greeted her while quickly looking for Zuo Yue.
Until he saw Zuo Yue chatting with Ai Ke in a low voice beside him. The two young girls who were also wearing simple dresses but looked especially noble were still eye-catching at the end of the crowd.
Ai Keâs boyfriend walked over and hugged Ai Keâs waist, saying something softly. Then, Ai Ke waved at Zuo Yue with an embarrassed look, indicating that she would leave first. Zuo Yue smiled and waved at Ai Ke understandingly.
Zuo Yue was alone there. She did not seem to have eaten much before she came. When no one was paying attention, she picked up a small plate of cake on the table and took two bites. As she ate, she looked at the other food on the table. It was as if her purpose for coming to the party tonight was not to show off her boyfriend or to show off how good she was doing. It was just to have a meal.
Lian Keying suddenly turned to look at the champagne tower not far behind Zuo Yue and suddenly smiled. She turned to the man beside her and said,ââDidnât you say that you would help me today? Howâs the arrangement I asked you to make with the hotel staff?â
The man was still very disgusted by her words. Although he was impatient, he still said in a low voice,âItâs already been arranged. Donât forget what you said. As long as I help you arrange everything today, youâll agree to the annulment of the engagement and wonât use the excuse of fake pregnancy to cause trouble at our house.â
Lian Keying glanced at him and said,âCan we not talk about this now?ââ
âIf you want to go back on your word, I can get the staff to remove the wine that has been added. You wonât be able to harm others, and you wonât be satisfied.âThe man took the red wine that someone handed him and said indifferently.
Lian Keying was angry, but she had no choice but to be threatened by him.
Her fiancé could not be saved in the first place, and the person who caused all this was Zuo Yue!
If it wasnât for the many misunderstandings caused by Shang Yiyi at the clothing store, how could her love path, which had just started, come to an abrupt end?
Since Zuo Yue did not let her have her way, she would not let Zuo Yue have it easy!
Tonight, she must make Zuo Yue lose all her reputation! Only then would she be able to take revenge for being abandoned by her fiancé!
*****
This dinner party was called a class reunion. Because most of the people were from the upper class, regardless of gender, they all had some family background and reputation. In the evening, they even invited a few famous American singers to help out. It was very lively.
However, not everyone was in a relationship now. There were also many single people. Zuo Yue simply mingled with those single students and chatted and laughed with them. She ignored Lian Keyingâs frequent glances at her. Zuo Yue went to the washroom halfway. When she came out of the washroom, she suddenly saw two people coming out of the VIP elevator near the lobby.
Those two people seemed to be an assistant and an intern secretary who often followed Xu Chengfeng around in the Xu Corporation. Why were they here?
Zuo Yue looked at them in confusion. When the two of them walked out for a few minutes and came back, Zuo Yue walked over to greet them before they were about to return to the elevator.
âMiss Zuo?â The two men recognized her and were equally surprised.âWhy are you here?â
âI was going to ask you guys. Today⦠I mean, doesnât my uncle have a client from England to meet? Why didnât you go together? Why are you here?â
âPresident Xu is meeting clients here.â
Zuo Yueâs gaze froze. She immediately glanced at the elevator behind them and then looked at the contract documents and letters in their hands. After looking at them for a while, she said softly,ââI understand. You guys go ahead.â
âMiss Zuo, you look very beautiful today.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThank you. Iâm just here to attend a class reunion.âZuo Yue exchanged a few more pleasantries before she turned around and left. When she left, she noticed from the corner of her eye that they had taken the VIP elevator upstairs. Seeing that the elevator had stopped on the eighth floor for a while, she guessed that Xu Chengfeng was now on the eighth floor of this hotel.
She looked at the time and opened the text messages she had sent to him.
It was obvious that he already knew that she was attending the party here. In the end, the letter was only upstairs and he did not tell her.
