"Why? Is it difficult? Just pretend I didn't say anything. Please don't take it to heart, Young Madam," Jiang Yirou said kindly.
Jiang Yirou spoke in an understanding manner. Her faint smile could make one have a good impression of her.
The scene of them chatting right now was exceptionally harmonious in the eyes of outsiders.
Xunmi bit her lip and shook her head slightly, replying embarrassedly, "I don't like that kind of activity, so Ah Cang didn't bring me along previously."
"This time, I'll ask Ah Cang, but I'm not used to that kind of scene. Maybe …"
Naturally, her watery eyes were telling the story of her shyness and introversion, and how incompatible she was with such an occasion.
That was not all. It could be seen from tonight's banquet that she liked or was used to silence and was not good at communicating with others.
Others might have heard some news about her, and as the female lead, it was impossible for Jiang Yirou to not know.
However, she still came and said so much. Jiang Yirou would not believe that she had no ulterior motives.
She just did not know what she was up to.
Jiang Yirou's expression froze for the third time today. All three times, it was related to this person. The irritation in her was about to dissipate.
"Young Master Su is so good to Young Madam. It's such a pity that we're not fated to be together with such an excellent man."
Dispelling the unnecessary thoughts that should not have popped up at this time, Jiang Yirou was still smiling brightly as if she did not understand what the other party meant.
There was an undercurrent between them. One hid her edge and pretended not to understand, while the other revealed her edge and pretended to be friendly. It was said that three women made a show, and that was the truth.
"I was wondering who it was. So it's the famous social butterfly and the hated Young Madam Su. I didn't expect the two of you to be together. Birds of a feather flock together indeed."
A sharp voice suddenly interjected between the two of them, causing them to frown.
Jiang Yirou was unhappy with the other party's words. Where did this person come from? How dare she cause trouble for her?
On the other hand, Xunmi was upset because of this person. The plot mentioned a cannon fodder. If it was just an unimportant cannon fodder, Xunmi would not have paid attention to it.
Unfortunately, this cannon fodder's surname was Qiu, and she was the biological sister of the original host. She was two years younger than the original host.
The original owner was kidnapped because of this little sister. On her fourth birthday, she insisted on eating cake. At that time, the two of them were on their way home from school.
In order to coax her crying sister, the original owner got off the car to buy a cake for her sister. Then, she was very unlucky to be kidnapped. At that time, the original owner was six years old.
In the plot, the Qiu couple was very happy when they found out that Xunmi was their daughter.
Even Qiu Xunli, who had always been arrogant and domineering, was extremely obedient in front of this elder sister. He placed his elder sister first in everything and was a complete sister-con.
"Miss Qiu, I've told you that your boyfriend is not a good person. He rolled over to me the moment he saw me. If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask him."
Although Jiang Yirou's tone was still calm, the anger in it could be easily detected.
Looks like it's going to be another good show, but the actors aren't quite right.
Qiu Xunli's expression changed. Her arrogant and willful look instantly turned fierce. If it were not for the occasion, she would have splashed the red wine in her hand on Jiang Yirou's face.
"Who do you think you are? If you didn't seduce He Xuan, would he have broken up with me?"
"He Xuan must be blind. How dare he lay his hands on someone who has slept with who knows how many men? He's really not afraid of being sick."
"Qiu Xunli, don't go overboard." Jiang Yirou's chest heaved up and down in anger.
It was a good show. Her face was flushed, obviously furious. However, because of her status and upbringing, she did not vent her anger. She only expressed her anger with her eyes.
Qiu Xunli scoffed and laughed sarcastically. "What do you mean overboard? I only know that I should be prepared to be despised if I did it."
"Instead of being a good missy, you actually do such despicable things. I feel disgusted living in the same circle as you. You've polluted the air."
Jiang Yirou's eyes were red, her chest heaving up and down even more. Damn it, this was the fourth time.
She could still tolerate the first three times since she had achieved her goal. However, this time, Qiu Xunli had hit her where it hurt.
The memories of being ostracized in the orphanage when she was young because of her ugliness came back, causing her to tremble.
She did not want to go through that again. Now, she had become very beautiful, had a noble status, and was about to get the most outstanding man.
She was no longer that ugly and weak coward in the orphanage. Jiang Yirou, you must calm down.
"Miss Qiu, I'll sue you for slander. Don't think that I'll allow you to humiliate me just because you're the missy of the Qiu family."
"Even if my Jiang family is not as good as your Qiu family, I won't allow anyone to offend us."
Jiang Yirou straightened her back and said fiercely. Her already beautiful face looked even more approachable due to her anger.
Compared to Qiu Xunli, whose eyes were filled with disdain, this Jiang Yirou immediately received the pitiful gazes of the men present.
Xunmi watched the scene with interest, gaining a preliminary understanding of the original owner's sister.
Impulsive, hot-blooded, did not know how to pretend, and had a venomous mouth.
Children like this were usually spoiled by their families and were not scheming, easily being used by others.
"Your Jiang family is …"
"Xunli, what are you doing? Apologize to Miss Jiang."
Qiu Xunli was about to continue insulting Jiang Yirou when she was interrupted by a baritone voice from the crowd. Then, a skinny middle-aged man walked out and pulled Qiu Xunli back.
Xunmi looked over. She did not know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to have seen a black aura on the man's forehead.
However, it disappeared too quickly, so she could not be sure.
Qiu Xunli pouted angrily and did not cooperate, but she did not say anything sarcastic. For a moment, the atmosphere was awkward.
"Miss Jiang, if my daughter has offended you in any way, I hope you won't take it to heart. She's been spoiled by us."
Qiu Yi did not look good. He was worried that his daughter would be remembered by the Su family for causing trouble at the Su family's banquet.
If the Su family wanted to deal with the Qiu family, he did not mind. However, nothing could happen to his daughter. They had already lost a child.
"Dad, why are you so submissive to her? She's a b * tch." Qiu Xunli was so angry that she did not choose her words carefully, her eyes red.
"You …"
"Dad?" Seeing that Qiu Yi's face was dark with anger and was about to hit Qiu Xunli, Xunmi quickly spoke up.
She and the original owner did not know why the Qiu family was in Capital City. The plot did not mention anything about it. It was only now that Xunmi realized that there were many bugs in this world!
Qiu Yi was stunned. The Su family members who were walking over were shocked. The onlookers were dumbfounded.
