The words "beautiful lady" were clearly ant as a complint, but they deeply hurt Lin Yixun. She sorrowfully realized that she still retained a tiny bit of self-respect, and hearing "beautiful lady" made her feel incredibly ashad.
She didn’t know if the man in front of her knew who she was, but judging by his tone when speaking with Leng Yixiu, they appeared to be quite close. Therefore, he must have known that Leng Yixiu had a fiancée. Leng Yixiu bringing her to this kind of occasion probably gave the man so clue about her identity.
So, what were the intentions behind this man’s smile?
Was it mocking, contempt, or disdain?
Lin Yixun’s thoughts were in a whirl. Naturally, Leng Yixiu, who was by her side, could sense her thoughts from her tense body and expression. His fingers on her arm slightly tightened.
He introduced her very naturally to the couple, "Lin Yixun, my... companion."
Leng Yixiu paused for a mont mid-sentence, ultimately refraining from using the most disgraceful words. Even so, it made Lin Yixun feel like she was sitting on pins and needles.
"So, this is Miss Lin. I’ve heard President Leng ntion her multiple tis. eting her in person is indeed different. I’m Fei Yichen, and this is my wife, Mu Yi."
Fei Yichen?
Lin Yixun had heard this na before. In T City, you might not know the mayor’s na, but no one was unfamiliar with this na.
She had assud Fei Yichen would be an older man but was surprised to see how young and handso he was, and even more surprised that Leng Yixiu was connected to him.
As the saying goes, "one doesn’t hit a smiling face." Although Lin Yixun did not like getting involved with soone with a complex background like Fei Yichen, she still faintly smiled, "Mr. Fei, Mrs. Fei, hello!"
"Hello, Miss Lin!" Mrs. Fei responded with a smile.
Hearing this, Lin Yixun couldn’t help but roughly size up the woman in front of her. Unlike other socialites with intricate makeup, Mrs. Fei had a plain face without any costics. Despite this, her eyes were very clear and free of any arrogance, instead, they were extrely gentle, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
Compared with the woman in front of her, Lin Yixun suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of inferiority. She couldn’t understand why Leng Yixiu brought her here.
The n gathered and talked about nothing but politics and business. Lin Yixun sat to the side, seeing Leng Yixiu and Fei Yichen chatting animatedly, but found herself uninterested. It seed Mrs. Fei felt the sa, propping her little head in boredom, almost falling asleep.
Noticing his wife’s lack of interest, Fei Yichen fondly rubbed her hair and softly said, "If you find it boring, why not take Miss Lin for a walk in the garden behind?"
Mrs. Fei, thinking dinner would still take a while, considered it a good idea and suggested to Lin Yixun, "Miss Lin, shall we ignore them and take a walk in the back garden?"
Lin Yixun, thinking it was better to stretch her legs rather than sit around like a log, agreed.
It turned out there was a vast back garden behind the villa. In the garden, there was a swimming pool, and not far away was a large sea of flowers.
As Lin Yixun walked closer, she realized it was Blue Demoness. The Blue Demoness flowers were well taken care of, blooming beautifully, and under the moonlight, they looked especially vibrant and alluring.
