Chapter 359: Chapter 359: You Know Who I Am and You Dare Speak to Like This?!
“What’s going on? Why do I hear a scream?”
“This is… Ye Chu? How did she fall? And look so disheveled?”
“OMG, is there a catfight happening? At a charity gala, no less? This livestream is totally worth it!”
Seeing Jiang Li standing there with an expressionless face, Ye Chu, feeling sowhat embarrassed, decided to play the poor victim to the hilt.
“Jiang Li, why did you splash wine on ?”
“WTF? Jiang Li splashed wine on soone???”
“? What gossip did I miss? Why is Jiang Li being so domineering?”
However, at the mont when everyone was anxious about whether a fierce battle was about to erupt, Jiang Li asked confusedly—
“Who are you?”
Ye Chu was utterly unprepared for such a question from Jiang Li and stood there, dumbstruck.
“You, you don’t recognize ?”
“Why should I recognize you?”
“I….”
“HAHAHA, I can’t anymore fam, I thought it was going to be a major fight, but it turns out to be a scam artist looking for trouble.”
“Is Sister Li trying to laugh to death to inherit the three pennies in my WeChat?”
Ye Chu visibly grew more embarrassed.
Seeing the crowd around her, which was enjoying the drama, growing larger, she had no choice but to quickly get up from the ground.
“Don’t play innocent. I was just trying to greet you, and you splashed wine on without a word, what’s that all about?”
Jiang Li remained impassive, “I’m sorry miss, but first of all, I truly don’t know you, and second, you were the one who almost fell and nearly splashed your wine glass on and this lady here. I rely blocked it, how does that count as splashing wine on you?”
She examined Ye Chu’s face.
Sharp-tongued and unkind in nature.
Probably here to pick a fight deliberately.
So she also deliberately showed no rcy just now, not only deflecting the wine back but even splashing a little towards Ye Chu’s dress.
“Exactly,” a wealthy madam by the side couldn’t stand it anymore and brushed off her clothes disdainfully, “We were having a nice chat, and it was you who suddenly ran over, couldn’t keep your balance, and still blad Miss Jiang.”
Ye Chu didn’t expect her plan to steal a chicken to end up losing the rice and didn’t anticipate the wealthy madam siding with Jiang Li; she stood there bewildered for a mont.
“I, even if I was the one who fell by accident, you shouldn’t have blocked and deflected the wine, at the very least, you should have helped up, don’t you know that our dresses are very valuable?”
Taking big strides, Wen Jiaojiao, who had arrived upon hearing the news, sidled up to face Jiang Li.
“I say, Ye Chu, is your head caught in a door or did you drink fake alcohol? Your dress can’t even compare to a single thread on Jiang Li’s dress. Open your eyes wide and look; this is a masterpiece by Master Liu. If it really gets stained, all the years you’ve spent in the entertainnt industry will be for nothing!”
“I’ve always recognized Princess Wen’s attacking prowess.”
“Omg, I didn’t even notice that, is that actually Liu Suqing’s embroidery? Is Jiang Li that aweso?”
“Why is everyone scolding Ye Chu? I feel like she was already wronged by simply falling down, Jiang Li could’ve at least helped her up, and it would’ve been fine.”
“I…” Ye Chu clenched her fists in frustration, “Who knows—”
“Who knows if this is actually a genuine creation by Liu Suqing? I think it’s more like being a poser.”
Before Ye Chu could finish her sentence, a defiant and arrogant male voice took over her words.
Ye Chu quickly nodded, “Yes, yes, maybe Jiang Li had soone imitate it to stand out!”
Once she saw who was coming, Ye Chu, who had been happy to have soone speak up for her, grew even more excited.
“Young President Jin? Why is it you?!”
The crowd parted of its own accord as a man dressed in a black and white checkered suit walked forward, hands tucked into his pockets.
Behind him followed several young people of various looks, all dressed in fine, expensive clothes.
The man’s features were sharp, with a high nose bridge, and his face was partly obscured by the light, but his slender eyes were exceptionally clear, filled with imnse irony and mockery. When his gaze swept over everyone, it was always with an intense scrutiny, incredibly sharp.
Jiang Li recognized him at a glance.
He was one of the notorious Demon Kings of the Capital—Jin Siyue.
Being the only son of the mother who was the cherished daughter of Old Sir Gu, Young President Jin had been showered with love since childhood.
His father, a prominent business and financial tycoon, raised Jin with less discipline than Old Sir Gu. Treating him like a precious jewel, the Jin Family would have liked to present him with the whole world if they could.
As a result, he had developed a domineering and arrogant disposition, spending money like water and taking recklessness to the extre. His track record of misdeeds would take days and nights to recount, so he was always surrounded by a host of sycophants.
If Jiang Yan was previously known as a notorious playboy and debauchee, Jin Siyue would only be more so—to an even greater extent.
His attire alone spoke volus. The suit on his body was a high-end custom piece, not sothing one could simply buy with money; the jade on his wrists and neck was of the ice variety, far beyond the comparison of ordinary luxury items.
Almost the mont he made his appearance, both the live stream and the surrounding crowd erupted.
They had heard that the Demon King of the Jin Family might attend Du Sang’s evening event, but they hadn’t taken it seriously. After all, with Jin Siyue’s status, he wouldn’t normally give such a small gathering the ti of day.
But, to their surprise, not only had he co, but he had also made his appearance so suddenly.
While others didn’t know the reason, Jiang Li knew all too well.
Because Young President Jin also had a hidden identity—Su Yinwan’s loyal admirer.
In the book, Jin Siyue was a person with strong feelings of competition and a desire to win. Initially, his interest in Su Yinwan was just to prove that he was more charming than Shang Shaojing.
But as he compared himself, he genuinely fell for her, eventually leading to a point of no return.
To summarize—he was just another standard addition to the troupe of n who fell head over heels for the Mary Sue female lead.
Jiang Li couldn’t help reflecting that indeed, the female lead was the female lead. Even by simply standing still, she managed to attract a crowd of big shots crazy for her.
As she pondered the different fates in the sa world, the gaze of the Demon King Jin quietly shifted to her, the disdain in his eyes intensifying.
“Hey, I’m talking to you, the rude woman in a fake dress.”
Jiang Li’s brows furrowed slightly.
Another person without manners or upbringing.
She t Jin Siyue’s gaze indifferently, “Compared to , Mr. Jin seems to have even less manners.”
“Shh—” Onlookers drew in a sharp breath.
[Damn, Sister Li is so fierce? Daring to confront Jin Siyue to his face?]
[But Jin Siyue is really rude, always attacking people on social dia, have disliked him for a long ti.]
Hearing her words, Jin Siyue’s face darkened imdiately.
“You say I’m rude? You know who I am and still dare to speak to like that?!”
Jiang Li could guess why he was targeting her in such a way.
It was probably because of Su Yinwan.
The remaining twenty percent… was likely due to her unlucky cannon fodder setting.
