Sitting beside Lu Yanchen, Shi Guang’s face was filled with restlessness. These types of places were really not suited for her. She did not know why Lu Yanchen had to bring her to somewhere like this.
She cast a glance around the entire place secretly once more. The seats were nearly filled–it should be starting soon.
As her gaze swept by the entrance, she caught sight of Su Ya, who was entering the premises as well. Donned in a gown with a plunging neckline, her exquisite features were drawn to perfection by her makeup artist. With her hair coiled around the top of her head, the few strands that were allowed to drop down from them further amplified her charm.
The person who had entered with her was Yang Chifeng, who was dressed in a suit as well.
As the handsome man and the ravishing beauty walked in, they were all smiles the entire time, and would even be exchanging a deep loving gaze at one another from time to time. A single look was enough to tell that they were a couple!
Thinking about how Yang Chifeng professed his feelings for her and the words he had spouted about wanting to court her, Shi Guang’s lips curled up in thorough disdain.
Lu Yanchen looked at her coldly and remarked sarcastically, “Why? You couldn’t have really thought that he was serious about courting you, huh?”
Shi Guang sweated. Of course, she knew that Yang Chifeng wasn’t sincere about courting her! But, how did Lu Yanchen know about that? So, she acted ignorant. “What courting? Who’s courting whom?”
“Hmph!!” Lu Yanchen harrumphed coldly.
Shi Guang, “…”
“Fufufu.”
Shi Guang smirked out before looking at the door once more. This time around, she caught sight of Yang Sitong, who was dressed in a pink evening gown and with a shawl accompanying it while her long hair rested on her shoulders.
The organizers of this event were Shen Chunlin of the Shen Family and his wife–that is, Lu Yanchen’s uncle and aunt.
After entering, Yang Sitong went looking for them and greeted them immediately. After a brief exchange, she made her way toward Su Ya and Yang Chifeng.
Shi Guang moved her gaze away coldly and turned toward Lu Yanchen, feeling displeased.
‘What did he bring me here for?’
She did not want to see Yang Sitong and Su Ya in the slightest bit…!
At that, a middle-aged man dressed in a black suit walked over to their table.
“When did you arrive? Why didn’t you say anything in advance?”
Shi Guang raised her head. This was the man that Yang Sitong was talking to earlier on. He should be Lu Yanchen’s uncle–Shen Chunlin.
Shen Chunlin smiled out gently, “Hello!”
At the day of the dinner party, this girl was seated right beside Yanchen. Today, he was bringing her for this charity ball as well. Could she really be as the rumors were spreading–his girlfriend?
A little awkward out of nowhere, Shi Guang replied somewhat nervously, “Hello!”
Lu Yanchen replied, “We’ve just arrived. You should get busy with your things.”
Shen Chunlin continued, “Don’t leave in such a hurry after this ends. Let’s go have a meal together.”
…
Yang Sitong was chatting with Su Ya right now and talking about the incident of Shi Guang accepting her 20 million and agreeing to leave Lu Yanchen. She spoke in such a soft volume that no one else could hear it but them.
She would even peek in the direction of Shen Chunlin and his wife from time to time. After all, they were Lu Yanchen’s uncle and aunt.
Suddenly, she noticed that Shen Chunlin had walked over to a rather isolated corner.
When she caught sight of Lu Yanchen, her face lit up as she wanted to sprint over at the next second. However, when she caught sight of Shi Guang, who was beside him, her entire face turned black.
‘What is she doing here!’
Noticing that something was wrong with Yang Sitong, Su Ya and Yang Chifeng, who were beside her, turned their heads and followed her glance. Naturally, they also caught sight of Lu Yanchen and Shi Guang.
The two of their faces were somewhat overcast as well.
“B*tch! She had clearly already taken my money…!” Yang Sitong spat out fiercely as her eyes blazed with fire, really wanting to bolt up and rush over.‘She had clearly agreed to get the f*ck off after taking the money! But, not only did she not leave, she has even attended this charity ball with Lu Yanchen!’
This was a clear provocation to her!
At that moment, Su Ya held her back while Yang Chifeng chimed in, “No matter what you’re thinking of doing, wait till the auction is over.”
Yang Sitong knew that the occasion was not right as she clenched her teeth and sat back down, gripping her hand so hard that her fingernails were digging right into her palm.
*Now I know why Yang Sitong was calling Su Ya her sister in law!*
