Chapter 349: Their Absolute Trust

The discussion was getting more outrageous. Someone even said, “It’s already impolite of her to wear this kind of clothes, and she’s even bringing a gift that’s not even presentable for ordinary people. She doesn’t have any respect for the Yan family at all. Is she really brought here by Fourth Young Master Yan himself?”
“Yeah.” Yan Yue suddenly stood up.
Elder Mrs. Yan glanced at her but did not say anything.
“Miss Bai, you’re my cousin’s friend. We all respect you, and Grandma likes you very much,” Yan Yue said, “But isn’t it a little too unsightly for you to use an imitation as a gift? Even if it’s a handmade gift that’s not worth much, 1 think Grandma will still like it.’
Seeing that an opportunity had presented itself, she was a little anxious and rushed to say what she wanted to say. She just wanted to make the accusation of Bai Lin gifting a counterfeit from the street vendor to be real.
The discussions around them grew even louder as the blames shifted from the gift to Bai Lin.
“I’ve long heard that Bai Lin isn’t willing to spend money. I even heard that she came by a bicycle. Don’t you people in the entertainment industry make money? How’s she so stingy?” someone asked a small-time celebrity next to him.
The small-time celebrity seemed to feel embarrassed for Bai Lin and quickly drew a clear line between them. “Not us! Only Bai Lin’s like that! Didn’t you hear about how she was calculative and schemed against the director when she was in Traveler?”
“She’s just playing to the gallery!” a woman who was dressed in plenty of jewelry snorted coldly, “If she doesn’t dress like this and give such a gift, how can she be on the hot search? A person who’s on more than 20 trending searches a month is just acting like a clown in front of others to attract attention!”
“l also think so!” a man agreed, “Of course, no one cares about what she uses or eats at home, but does she have to do this at a big occasion like Elder Mrs.
Yan’s birthday banquet? If it’s not intentional, then what is it?”
Just then, Hans and John returned to the banquet hall. When they heard this, the two of them immediately united.
Hans said, “What are you guys talking about? If Ella’s that kind of person, she should’ve already spread the news that she’s Ella all over the world. Wouldn’t she have been popular in the world then? Is there a need to use such a method to attract attention?”
John said as well, “You only know how to mock others with ugly words. Why don’t you take a look at yourself? Is your brain only for decoration? Do you only know to believe what others say?”
Both of them knew Bai Lin’s personality and knew that she would not do such a thing.
This time, no one dared to say anything more.
Despite that, Hans and John were also stunned when they came to Elder Mrs.
Yan.
Fired porcelain was an ancient art skill of Hua that was world-renowned, but the two of them who were born and raised in Country Y could not see the value of this porcelain at all.
However, the two of them still looked at Bai Lin with absolute trust.
Ella’s gift must not be what the others said!
Yan Ming still had a sickly look on his face as he sat at the side, using a handkerchief to cover his mouth when he coughed for a while.
He was waiting to see Bai Lin make a fool of herself.
Of course, Yan Ming had long discovered that Yan Ruffs feelings for Bai Lin were not ordinary. It was just that he had no plans to use Bai Lin to threaten Yan Ruo for the time being.
Now, though, Bai Lin had delivered herself to the door. As long as he added fuel to the fire at the right time, he would be able to dull Yan Ruffs spirit.
When Yan Yue saw this, she exchanged a look with Yan Ming who was sitting at the side, and her red lips curved up in satisfaction.
Many of the relatives from the extended Yan family were on good terms with Yan Ming, so they had naturally received his instructions to stir up disputes here and deliberately say something slanderous.
Bai Lin, on the other hand, did not say a word. Her expression was calm, as if she was not afraid of the rumors.
This piqued Elder Mrs. Yan’s curiosity even more. She saw that the porcelain was so beautiful and that it did not seem like an ordinary item, but Bai Lin did not explain further.
At this time, an old man who had been sitting in the main seat of the banquet hall without speaking stood up.
“Elder Mrs. Yan.” The moment he spoke, everyone in the banquet hall was shocked.
The old man was one of the top archaeologists in the country, specializing in the cultural relics of the Song Dynasty. He was a national scholar, and he was already in his seventies. No longer in his prime, he usually enjoyed his time at home.
This time, he attended as a favor to Elder Mrs. Yan.
When Elder Mrs. Yan heard this, she immediately handed the porcelain bowl over.
“Mr. Tu, please go ahead..”
