Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Li Feng’s appearance had indeed startled everyone. Although they all knew he was an old man who liked to bluster and glare, they hadn’t expected him to scold everyone harshly right there at the press conference.
Xu Ting couldn’t believe it. “Mr. Li, are you senile? How could Mr. Hua possibly be Song Fan’s grandfather?”
“Shut up!” Liu Jie, one of the few people at the scene who had actually met Mr. Hua, did not want his granddaughter to continue speaking.
Seeing her grandfather’s displeased expression, Xu Ting helplessly looked at Xu Wen, but the latter appeared indifferent.
Xu Wen didn’t know much about Yu Wan’s family affairs, and Meng Yu wasn’t well-informed either, let alone her. However, she was still unwilling. Why did all the good things happen to Song Fan?
“What’s going on?” Suddenly, a female voice broke the silence at the scene. “Kevin, am I not welcome here?”
A mixed-race woman with luxurious clothing and short, wine-red hair walked in.
Many people at the scene gasped.
“Is this designer Wang Meng? The one who designs jewelry for the European royal family?”
“I heard her father is a royal jewelry designer. Why is she here?”
“Is she also a friend of Song Fan? What’s Song Fan’s background?”
The earlier turn of events was already shocking enough, but if Wang Meng had come to support Song Fan, everyone at the scene would be shocked once more.
“Ai La! You’re too much. You had Kevin invite me to the jewelry launch?” Wang Meng walked straight to Song Fan, gently punched her on the shoulder, and then hugged her tightly. “You haven’t contacted me for so long. You owe me a meal.”
Song Fan was first surprised to see Kevin. When she saw him smirking, she knew it must have been Kevin who invited people to help with the publicity.
She had met Wang Meng and Kevin when they were designing abroad. The three of them had a good relationship, and because she had good skills, she had once saved them from a kidnapping. The three became very close friends.
She knew Wang Meng was usually busy and hadn’t intended to tell her about these matters, but Kevin had already spoken up.
“If I hadn’t shamelessly invited you, where would you find the time, great designer Wang?” Kevin tugged at Wang Meng’s arm. “Everyone’s watching. What are you doing?”
“Hmph! Chief Designer, huh?” Wang Meng looked at Kevin’s work badge and then angrily said to Song Fan, “Ai La! You better get me a chief designer position, or you’re done!”
“Ai La?” Xu Ting looked at Song Fan in disbelief.
As a celebrity, she naturally knew of the designer Ai La, but she had heard that this female designer had a notoriously bad temper. If she didn’t want to, no one could force her to design.
Xu Ting hid behind Liu Jie. When she looked at Song Fan again, her gaze had changed. Could Song Fan really be so formidable with multiple identities? Wasn’t she supposed to have always been in the countryside?
Many people at the scene had the same doubts as Xu Ting.
The person who had been live-streaming earlier ran over again. “Designer Wang Meng, did you come back specifically to attend the Lingdong Jewelry launch? The Ai La you mentioned, could she be Miss Song?”
Wang Meng rolled her eyes at him. “What else? Do you think I have nothing better to do? Ai La is just her stage name, more convenient abroad. How can you not know the famous designer Ai La?”
Facing Wang Meng’s contemptuous gaze, the person felt embarrassed to admit they didn’t know.
When people looked at Song Fan again, their eyes had changed.
Someone whispered, “The Xu Family is really willing to do anything to marry into the Gu Family, even slandering Miss Song?”
Everyone finally understood what had happened earlier. Wasn’t it just to throw dirt on Song Fan?
Xu Ting was Xu Wen’s cousin. She suddenly stood up for Song Fan, wasn’t it just for Xu Wen?
“Does Xu Wen still want to marry Gu Chen? Didn’t the Gu Family not acknowledge her?”
“Didn’t you see Young Master Gu standing in front of Song Fan just now? Clearly protecting her!”
“Could it be that Xu Wen was jealous and deliberately had Xu Ting slander Song Fan?”
Many people at the scene were from prestigious families in the capital, and some media had also been invited. Xu Ting couldn’t afford to damage her image.
“Of course not! I was just defending my idol,” Xu Ting hurriedly explained. “I thought Miss Song had stolen Mr. Hua’s design, so I got angry. How was I supposed to know she was Mr. Hua’s granddaughter!”
“Are you blind? How could you not see that?” Wang Meng said disdainfully.
