Bei Sangyun bowed like a good granddaughter she was. "Yes, my grandfather sent here to welco you and lead you to our house."
"Haha, very direct and short, with no unnecessary pleasantries. I like that," Mr. Simon laughed. "You’re unusual, just like your grandfather said."
Bei Sangyun: "...."
So the old man had already talked about her behind her back, huh.
"Grandpa, is she the host from the Lin family?" A deep voice sounded behind Mr. Simon.
A tall, handso teenager with blonde hair and erald eyes appeared behind Mr. Simon. He looked at Bei Sangyun up and down, interest flashed in his eyes.
"What a beauty. Asian beauties are the best."
Bei Sangyun lowered her eyes to hide her annoyance. Seeing this guy’s face and hearing his voice awakened so unpleasant mories.
"Richard, don’t stare at her too much. You’re scaring her," said another tall beauty. Her hair was darker than her brother’s, and her pair of green eyes were lighter. She smiled sweetly at Bei Sangyun, "Beauties like her are fragile."
Bei Sangyun rolled her eyes inwardly.
These were the two troubleso bastards she had to endure for a couple of weeks.
"The car is already prepared. Please follow ." Bei Sangyun didn’t try to strike up a conversation with the two and started leading them.
The brother and sister exchanged knowing glances. It seed their host today would not be easy to handle. Unlike the other hosts they had t, this one didn’t try to please or fawn over them.
It looked like they would have an interesting fellow to play with.
"I think our stay will not be boring this ti," Richard said with a playful smile.
Sophia’s sweet smile turned devilish, "Tell . I hope the children in the Lin family will be fun."
Mr. Nicholas heard his grandchildren muttering. He gave them a warning glance. "Don’t make trouble. The Lin family might act nice, but if you poke them too much, they might bite you. I don’t want my friend to co to , complaining about you two."
The two shrugged and didn’t really take their grandfather’s warning to heart.
The cars then traveled to the Lin mansion.
****
A luxurious small-scale banquet was taking place in the Lin mansion.
The prominent families who had received information about the Simon family’s visit to the country in advance had managed to secure an invitation to attend the small banquet.
Since the head of the Simon family, Mr. Nicholas Simon, was also present, it was an opportunity for them to establish connections with the renowned Simon family. The prominent families of high society were not about to let this chance slip through their fingers.
In a certain corner, Lin Xiaoni laughed as she scrolled through her phone.
"Hahaha. She looks so ugly!" She zood in on the photo that a student had secretly taken of Bei Sangyun. In the photo, the latter was on her way to the cafeteria with that confident and unbothered look on her face, while everyone was looking at her back dumbfoundedly.
This photo had beco the hottest topic on the school forum at the mont.
Everyone was speculating whether it was a new trend for the tyrant or if soone had played a prank on her. If it was the forr, it wouldn’t be surprising, considering the tyrant’s eccentric nature. If it was the latter, they were all wondering who had the audacity to draw panda eyes and vampire fangs on the tyrant’s face.
"I should save this picture!" Lin Xiaoni saved the screenshot and shared it in her other group chats, all while mocking Bei Sangyun.
"Hmm. Should I send this to my second cousin brother as well? I bet he’ll have a good laugh for a day or two."
Her second cousin brother, Lin Feng, was notorious for playing pranks on that bitch. He would surely not want to miss out on this.
Lin Xiaoni forwarded the photo to Lin Feng. [Second cousin brother, I did you a big favor. Make sure to return it next ti.]
Lin Xiaoni patted herself on the back for a job well done. When she saw the fourth branch approaching the longest dining table for the Lin family, she hurriedly ran to their side.
"Lin Sunji, tell who made that girl look like a panda-vampire clown?"
Lin Sunji tried to avoid Lin Xiaoni, her face contorting in disgust. "Don’t get too close. Your perfu reeks. Just like your low intelligence."
Lin Xiaoni sniffed her own wrist. It wasn’t that strong...
Then she realized that the other party had just insulted her. She glared at Lin Sunji. "You’re asking for a fight again!"
"Xiaoni, Sunji, the two of you should behave today. The guests and your grandfather are already here. What if your grandfather sees you two fighting again?" Li i stepped in between the two girls, wearing a gentle smile. "Let’s just return to our seats quietly."
Lin Xiaoni pouted and muttered, "...Acting all sophisticated, huh!"
Lin Sunji rolled her eyes and continued walking. She didn’t like talking about Bei Sangyun.
Everyone around her was always talking about Bei Sangyun. In class, her classmates’ attention was constantly on Bei Sangyun. On the school forum, everything was about that bitch. She was tired of hearing about her all the ti. It was so annoying.
Lin Xiaoni then approached the quiet Lin Sanju. "Third cousin brother, do you have any idea who did that to her face?"
Lin Sanju glanced at the photo on Lin Xiaoni’s phone, then vaguely replied, "It’s best if you don’t know. Don’t awaken a sleeping beast."
Lin Xiaoni: ?
Was she really that stupid? Why couldn’t she understand her third cousin brother’s words?
The fourth and fifth branches took their designated seats. Lin Zhou’s and Lin Feng’s father was already seated in their position.
The Simon family and Old Master Lin were still surrounded by the guests. The other Lin family mbers had no choice but to sit quietly and wait.
Lin Xiaoni got bored. "Mom, I want to et the Simon children."
"Not right now. You’ll have your chance later. Don’t be too eager or reveal too much about yourself. They might see you as naive and foolish," Xiao Mi cautioned.
Lin Xiaoni pouted. "That Bei Sangyun is so lucky. She gets to know them quickly while we just have to wait."
She glanced at Bei Sangyun who was silently standing beside the Simon family.
