Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bai Xue’s eyes welled up with tears as she asked, “Ling’er, do you hate that much?”
Jiang Ling’er wore an innocent smile and said, “Isn’t it obvious? I think everyone here can tell how much I dislike you.”
Qin Xiaoxiao maintained a poker face, secretly reveling in the situation. She had assud Bai Xue was quite clever, but now it seed that she was incredibly foolish.
Finding such an unreliable ally and attempting to pin the “mistress” label on Jiang Ling’er without any careful consideration was a foolish move. Did Bai Xue truly think everyone was gullible?
At that mont, soone in the crowd suddenly exclaid, “Look, Li Yan has arrived! He looks so handso!”
All the ladies turned to the entrance, their eyes gleaming with envy, especially toward Bai Xue.
Li Yan was dressed in a sharp suit with a light blue shirt, his handso appearance and noble deanor captivating countless won.
Wen Nuan whispered to Jiang Ling’er, “Wow, he’s really handso.”
Jiang Ling’er smiled, acknowledging his handsoness. However, he wasn’t her type.
Bai Xue saw Li Yan’s arrival, and her mood imdiately improved. As long as she stood beside him, Jiang Ling’er couldn’t do anything.
Approaching Li Yan quickly, Bai Xue expressed her grievance, “Li Yan, why did you take so long? Ling’er misunderstood again earlier.”
The implication in her words was that Jiang Ling’er had just bullied her.
In truth, Li Yan had been present long before. He was well aware of the situation.
Li Yan replied, “So matters took longer than expected.”
Bai Xue waited for Li Yan to reprimand Jiang Ling’er, but after several seconds passed, Li Yan showed no intention of taking action. Bai Xue felt uneasy.
She said, “Li Yan, do you think I look good today?”
As she spoke, Bai Xue leaned closer to him.
Li Yan, however, simply sidestepped her, causing Bai Xue to nearly stumble.
Fortunately, her assistant caught her in ti.
Bai Xue was bewildered and had no idea why Li Yan had avoided her like that. She felt increasingly anxious and asked, “Li Yan, what’s the matter with you?”
Li Yan completely ignored Bai Xue and walked up to Jiang Ling’er. He asked, “Why did you co here?”
Jiang Ling’er pulled out the invitation and playfully said, “Just a mont ago, a man claid to have received this invitation from Miss Bai. Later, Miss Bai’s assistant said it was a high-quality imitation and had the man kicked out. I received my invitation from Miss Bai as well. I wonder if this one’s a high-quality imitation too. Should we have Miss Bai’s assistant co here to examine it in front of everyone? That way, we can determine if it’s genuine.”
Jiang Ling’er’s smile may have seed friendly, but her words were filled with mockery.
Bai Xue tearfully protested, “Ling’er, please stop joking. How could the invitation be a high-quality imitation? I gave it to you personally. I don’t even know that man, and my assistant has been with for years. 1 know her very well; she wouldn’t accuse soone wrongly.”
Jiang Ling’er completely ignored Bai Xue and turned her attention to Li Yan, saying with a smile, “So, do you still have any questions, Li Yan?”
Li Yan furrowed his brows, feeling quite awkward. He pretended to clear his throat and said, “Could we talk privately?”
Jiang Ling’er responded, “I’m sorry, but if you have sothing to say, you can say it here. No need for a private conversation.”
The original owner of the body had wanted to speak privately with Li Yan in the past, but he had refused. Now that he wanted to talk privately, Jiang Ling’er found his behavior rather shaless.
Li Yan smiled, and for the first ti, he felt sowhat helpless.
Bai Xue asked carefully, “Li Yan, is there sothing you want to say to Ling’er?”
She put on a pitiable expression, as if she were afraid of being discarded at any mont.
Jiang Ling’er laughed mockingly. Was she pretending to be a victim again?
Wen Nuan saw Bai Xue’s pretentious expression and couldn’t help but say, “Bai Xue, who are you so dissatisfied with? Co on, be straightforward about it. Or perhaps you’re worried that Li Yan will realize how great Jiang Ling’er is and leave you?”
Bai Xue’s complexion looked terrible, and her heart was in turmoil. Her eyes were filled with tears as she pleaded pitifully, “Li Yan, you won’t abandon , will you?”
Jiang Ling’er smiled. She had to admit that Bai Xue’s acting skills had reached an impressive level. Her pitiable appearance could lt the hearts of both n and won. It probably wouldn’t be long before Li Yan was overwheld by Bai Xue’s performance.
At this mont, Bai Xue suddenly turned her gaze toward Jiang Ling’er, pleading, “Ling’er, you wouldn’t take Li Yan away, would you? You’ve both dissolved the engagent, so you wouldn’t stoop to stealing soone else’s man, right?”
