Ye Lu couldn’t help but stare, what a handso and dazzling man.
Great build, attractive face, good temperant. If he were to sell his looks, he’d undoubtedly earn explosive fa, with rich ladies vying for his attention.
Ah, what a pity. This man is a real catch, extrely expensive-looking, like a luxury item. The wealthy ladies would definitely regret this.
Just as she was daydreaming out of boredom, a crowd of people surged towards her, and Ye Lu quickly stepped aside.
Unexpectedly, her skirt was too long. She shifted her high-heeled foot back and stepped on the hem of her dress. Suddenly, she had a bad feeling. Oh no, she was about to make a fool of herself.
Ye Lu fell onto the ground like a frog, and what’s worse, the book in her hand flew out.
It arched beautifully in mid-air, knocked off the sunglasses of the handso man at the center of attention, and then slowly slid down his handso face.
The man stopped in his tracks.
The surroundings seed to freeze, the temperature plunging rapidly.
Faced with such a situation, everyone looked flabbergasted, their faces turning white from shock, completely at a loss for how to react.
Ye Lu felt a wave of terror causing her vision to black out.
Now what? She hit that luxury item on the head, would he accuse her of assault and have her put in jail?
"Ah, I-I suddenly have a heart attack combined with a ntal breakdown and a fit... Ah, I’m fainting..." Ye Lu promptly tilted her head, closed her eyes , and lay motionless on the ground.
The surrounding onlookers stared speechlessly at this foolhardy woman.
To offend Crown Prince Shang and then feign death, such boldness! However, she would pay a heavy price.
A glacial light shimred in Crown Prince Shang’s eyes as he extended his hand to catch the book.
Having glanced at the title, he recoiled.
He disdainfully looked down at the feigning woman, a scornful smile playing on his lips.
"Gold Digger? Since when has the prosperous dynasty allowed such crazy won to intrude?"
With a flick of his hand, he tossed the book to the ground, stepping on it ruthlessly.
"Throw her out."
Imdiately, two bodyguards lifted Ye Lu and tossed her out.
"Damn it, how could they treat a sick person like this? What a crappy man! It was just a little hit, so petty! He must be the one with ntal problems!" Ye Lu, dumped on the street, grumbled angrily while rubbing her butt.
She’d rember this bastard.
After a while, Chen Yan found her, looking disheveled. After scolding her and hurriedly helping her tidy up, she led her to the entrance.
An old wealthy man invited her as a family mber and helped them get in.
They took the elevator straight to the revolving rooftop.
The entire luxurious top floor was a cocktail party, with n and won from high society, all dressed in elegant attire, including businessn and politicians, many of whom she had seen on TV or in newspapers.
She and her not-so-polite mother, their nouveau riche air, instantly stood out like a sore thumb in this crowd of elites.
The typically domineering and self-confident mother had beco humble and fearful, seeming rather small against the grand background.
"Ah, isn’t that Boss Liu?" Chen Yan’s eyes lit up, and she quickly dragged Ye Lu towards a balding man, a wide smile plastered on her face.
"Boss Liu, I’m Chen Yan. Rember I told you about my daughter Ye Lu last ti? Look, I’ve brought her."
The bald man was about fifty years old, his face sagging with excess flesh.
His eyes road over Ye Lu, gradually lighting up.
"Your daughter’s quite pretty. Why didn’t you introduce her to earlier?"
He gave her a lascivious glance and extended his chubby hand.
"Ye Lu, such a sweet na. Nice to et you, young lady. You can call Big Brother Liu."
Big Brother Liu?
Ye Lu almost threw up her dinner from last night.
Looking speechless at Boss Liu with his beer belly, bald head, and the whole creepy old man vibe, even older than her father, he shalessly presud to call himself ’Big Brother’. Had he no sense of sha?
"Hello, Boss Liu."
She forced a smile and responded, keeping her hands behind her back, hell-bent on preventing this disgusting old man from having his way.
