“I won’t believe your nonsense! Even if you used some seductive methods to bewitch my brother in the past, that’s all in the past! My brother is about to get engaged to Sister Su Ling!” Lu Nuannuan turned a deaf ear. She insisted, “Let me tell you. If you continue to go overboard, I’ll get someone to chase you out. A b.i.t.c.h is a b.i.t.c.h. Nothing can change that. Even if you manage to marry someone wealthy, you won’t be a princess. You are still the same girl from the slum.”
“Who did you say you want to chase out?” Ji Yan’s gaze turned cold, and he looked at Lu Nuannuan in an imposing manner. “Miss Lu, you sound like you are the boss here.”
Lu Nuannuan met Ji Yan’s deep gaze, and her face could not help but turn pale. Her body trembled. “I, I didn’t say anything wrong.” She lifted her head and clenched her fists. “Today is my brother and sister Su Ling’s engagement party. It’s a joyous occasion for the Lu family. We don’t welcome anyone with ill intentions to attend!”
“So we’re not welcome here,” Ji Yan’s lips curled coldly, and he said lightly, “The Lu family is so arrogant.” He did not say anything more to Lu Nuannuan. However, Lu Nuannuan felt an inexplicable sense of humiliation. Ji Yan’s tone was as if she was a piece of trash that was not even worth mentioning. She did not even have the right to speak to him.
“Nuannuan, what nonsense are you talking about!” Lu Guo, who had just walked over, immediately flared up when he heard this. He pulled Lu Nuannuan and scolded her, “Is this how Daddy and Mommy taught you? Is this how you treat your guests? Where is your upbringing?”
!!
“I didn’t say anything wrong! What kind of good intentions does this woman have to attend my brother’s engagement ceremony?” Lu Nuannuan was sad and felt wronged, “Shen Hanxing is so shameless. She insisted on pestering my brother! She’s already married, and my brother is getting engaged. She still wants to be his mistress. She is shameless!”
“Nuannuan, how can you talk like that?” Madam Lu quickly stopped Lu Nuannuan and patted her back lightly, “don’t talk nonsense.” However, her expression made it apparent that she agreed with Lu Nuannuan’s words.
Lu Guo smiled apologetically. “Mr. Ji, I’ve spoiled Nuannuan too much. She isn’t sensible. Please don’t mind what she said. I’ll make sure I punish her after this ceremony.”
“Since you want to teach her a lesson, then teach her a lesson now,” Ji Yan’s eyes were cold. He said in a deep voice, “My wife and I will stand here and watch. We’ll see how you teach your children. Don’t worry about us. Please do whatever you need to do.”
“I…” Lu Guo was stunned. He didn’t expect Ji Yan to act so irrationally. He didn’t know what to say. He was speaking so to ease the situation and brush Ji Yan off. Lu Guo wouldn’t teach his daughter a lesson. He had never punished his daughter before, and it would be impossible for him to do it publicly.
“Miss Lu looks older than my wife,” Ji Yan sneered, “since you said your daughter is still a kid. What about my wife? You protect your daughter, but don’t forget my wife had me. Do you think you are better now to speak arrogantly to me?”
“Nonsense! I am not older than Shen Hanxing!” Lu Nuannuan was half a year younger than Shen Hanxing. She could not help but shout, “why do you have to punish me? I didn’t do anything wrong! Shen Hanxing did those shameless things herself, yet you are afraid of us saying it?”
“So you’re not as old as Mrs. Ji. Then you look quite old,” Wei Ling came out of nowhere and said with a smile, “what’s everyone talking about? It’s so lively here.”
“Mr. Wei,” Seeing Wei Ling, Ji Yan frowned. He was another troublemaker.
“I came with my cousin to join in the fun,” Wei Ling saw Ji Yan and was instantly terrified. He shrank his neck and retreated to Shen Hanxing’s side. He said softly, “I saw you and came over to say h.e.l.lo. My brother didn’t come today.” So, Mr. Ji shouldn’t be so hostile toward him. Ji Yan should look for his brother. He was innocent!
Seeing Wei Ling’s cowardly appearance, Shen Hanxing shook her head in amus.e.m.e.nt and elbowed Ji Yan. “Mr. Ji.”
Ji Yan smacked his lips and looked at her in dissatisfaction.
Lu Nuannuan’s face turned pale, and she almost exploded in embarra.s.sment. No woman could bear it when others told them they looked old. However, Wei Ling did not notice it and shouted confidently, “Where did you come from, ugly woman? How dare you bully Mrs. Ji? It looks like no one has taught you a lesson for being rude!”
