Shadow and Light: The Bride Who Clicks Her Way to Love Chapter 396 - 409: Don’t Do Anything Reckless

"Yeah, even if Xia Ling admitted she was wrong, it’s not her place to speak up, right? Does she still think she’s the precious daughter of the Zhuang Family and Lu Shifeng’s only wife?"

"Exactly, exactly, overestimating herself, hahaha."

"The Zhuang Family was brought to the brink of bankruptcy, and it’s rumored Lu Shifeng was behind it. It would take decades to even recover. No one knows how Zhuang Heng managed to offend Lu Shifeng, to the point that he doesn’t even give face to his wife’s family."

"He must have offended him terribly, Zhuang Heng doesn’t know how to please her husband at all."

"Exactly, exactly, look how clueless she is even in front of Xia Ling."

"No wonder Lu Shifeng can’t forget Su Xingyu, stuck with a wife like Zhuang Heng who only embarrasses herself, who wouldn’t miss their ex?"

"Haha, Su Xingyu is not an ex; she was the legitimate original wife."

"Speaking of which, Zhuang Heng is the latecor. If you calculate the ti she got pregnant and gave birth to young master Lu Jue, she might even be the third party interference!"

"Shaless mistress!"

"Really shaless!"

The onlookers chid in one after another, completely off-topic.

It’s not entirely their fault, besides the staff Zhuang Heng brought from Blade Group, others like those from Cloud, and even people from the venue, all have considerable grudge against Zhuang Heng. If she hadn’t been so pretentious here, there wouldn’t have been a venue conflict, causing people from Cloud, Imperial, and Blade to clash!

These three are major forces; colliding with each other is quite troubleso.

Fortunately, although Xia Ling was throwing a tantrum, she only held it for two seconds before turning her head warmly towards Su Xingyu: "Great, you’re finally back, we’re going to celebrate today! Are you free after the photo shoot? Hang on, I’ll finish the promotional photos, and we’ll go drink tonight!"

"I..." Su Xingyu initially wanted to tell her that she needed to go ho to see Han and Jue, but looking at Xia Ling’s sparkling eyes, she couldn’t bring herself to say it.

"Okay." All the words transford into this single word.

"I knew Xingyu was the best!" The girl cheered and turned to instruct a man following her, "Ah Chen, quickly tell Ah Kun that I’m using his bar tonight! Book the whole place! Clear out the guests and keep the best bartender, I want to treat Xingyu!"

Su Xingyu followed her voice and saw the man standing behind Xia Ling as well.

The man was dressed in a dark brown suit, silent and discreet, yet people around him were respectful, not the least bit impolite.

Chu Chen.

Su Xingyu recognized him; he had been Xia Ling’s manager from many years ago, and apparently, had not changed since.

Earlier when Imperial’s vanguard cleared the venue, Sheng inadvertently ntioned "Mr. Chu," probably referring to Chu Chen.

At this mont, Zhuang Heng also realized, no wonder Sheng ntioned Mr. Chu earlier, but she secretly hated them. Clearing the venue is one thing, but why ntion Xia Ling’s manager instead of Xia Ling herself! Otherwise, how could she montarily forget about any prominent person nad Chu in high society, foolishly offending Imperial!

Anger raged in her heart, but now, with the strong overpowering her weakness, she had no choice but to endure.

Chu Chen gently looked at Xia Ling and then at Su Xingyu, warmly smiling: "Okay."

He imdiately went to make arrangents.

After Xia Ling finished her instructions, she joyfully continued to stick to Su Xingyu, asking her, "Is it you who’s before ? Xingyu, I heard so argunts when I ca in, is your venue still in use? It’s okay, you continue using it, I’ll wait for you to finish."

Her words left everyone stunned.

"Is... is this Xia Ling..."

"Am I seeing a fake Xia Ling..."

The Cloud and venue onlookers murmured as if in a dream.

Xia Ling has been famous for many years, with a big na and a big temper, well-known in the entertainnt industry. She always took over others’ venues; voluntarily giving up a venue was unheard of!

For a mont, they were all in disbelief, looking at Su Xingyu in a completely different manner.

"This Miss Axing really has so influence..."

"I think she really must be Su Xingyu, right? Didn’t Xia Ling just say so? If it’s Su Xingyu, it’s not surprising, Su Xingyu and Xia Ling are indeed good friends."

"Yeah, yeah, and the relationship between Blade and Imperial. If Axing is truly Su Xingyu, the young lady of Blade Group Lu Family, Xia Ling would have to give the Blade so face."

"Naive, have you ever seen Xia Ling give anyone face? What Blade, did Xia Ling ever care about Zhuang Heng?"

As they spoke, the topic turned back to Zhuang Heng. Many couldn’t help but glance at her inquisitively, curiously, and even schadenfreudely.

Zhuang Heng was incredibly furious, but no matter how angry she was, she had to acknowledge one fact: that Su Xingyu’s standing in Xia Ling’s eyes was much higher than hers!

Then Su Xingyu told Xia Ling, "It’s alright, you use the venue first, our models have already left anyway. My venue was pushed away by Zhuang Heng, and the troubles with Sheng clearing the venue weren’t caused by my people, it was Zhuang Heng’s people."

Her brief explanation made Xia Ling sense sothing was amiss: "Your venue was pushed away by Zhuang Heng?"

The girl’s beautiful eyes were unwittingly tinged with thin anger, looking like a kitten ready to bristle at any mont.

Su Xingyu hadn’t said much when other staff from Cloud began to complain, "Yes, Miss Xia, originally this venue was booked by Zhuang Heng first, our Miss Axing second, and you third. But Zhuang Heng took two slots alone, not giving up the venue even after you arrived. Our equipnt didn’t have ti to be set up, and the models left when their ti was up. We’ve lost quite a bit of ti and cost this ti!"

Su Xingyu glanced at the staff but didn’t prevent them from complaining.

Zhuang Heng indeed did many excessive things; she wouldn’t mind giving her so publicity.

On the other side, Xia Ling was indeed enraged, accustod to being pampered, she had always bullied others, never the other way around—and bullying her friends was absolutely not allowed either!

She looked ominously at Zhuang Heng, making Zhuang Heng’s heart jump.

"What do you want, don’t be rash," Zhuang Heng finally couldn’t help speaking, a bit fierce on the outside but timid inside, "It’s common in the industry to hold up venues, and this ti I was shooting left-behind children. Xia Ling, you now have enough fa in the circle, don’t bully the venue for left-behind children, it wouldn’t be good if negative news spread later."
