This familiar voice startled Jiang Nuan, and her clear eyes snapped towards the newcomer, a faint anger rising in their depths.
Yan Xi, tall and slender, wore a vibrant red gown that accentuated her willowy waist, making her appear somewhat thin and delicate. Her graceful and captivating posture exuded a fragile beauty that inspired pity.
This woman still had the audacity to appear before her, Jiang Nuan.
Nan Zhou's gaze flickered upon seeing Yan Xi.
She actually dared to come to his welcoming banquet.
It was an insult to the Nan family's doorstep.
Yan Xi smiled at Jiang Nuan, "Nuan Nuan, when you were in college, you were number one in Latin dance, so why do you say you can't dance?"
"You were number one in chess, number one in Go, so why do you say you can't play?"
"Singing goes without saying. When there were activities in college, you were our lead singer. Nuan Nuan, are you looking down on the ladies here? Do you feel they aren't qualified to compare with you, which is why you say you can't?"
Her light words easily skewed people's thoughts.
The complexions of the ladies present also darkened.
Upon hearing this lady's words, Nan Xin's expression also became very unpleasant.
She angrily said, "Jiang Nuan, who are you looking down on?"
Mu Jiu Chen frowned, wanting to retort. However, Nan Zhou spoke before him, pointing an angry finger at Yan Xi, "Who let this woman in?"
Yan Xi's face turned pale. She was now the young madam of the Lu family, and many people would show her some respect. Yet, this third young master pointed at her angrily in front of so many people.
Jiang Nuan stared at Nan Zhou in surprise. Did Nan Zhou know Yan Xi?
At this moment, a man in a suit and tie walked over. The man was tall and imposing, his dark hair thick, and his gaze profound. He looked at Nan Zhou and said with an extremely cold tone, "Third Young Master, this is my fiancée. I brought her in. Please apologize to my fiancée."
"Apologize?" Nan Zhou acted as if he had heard a joke, "Who are you? Do you have an invitation?"
Nan Yang didn't understand why his son was so angry. He reminded him from the side, "This is Young Master Lu from the Lu family of Modu."
Lu Qiao Yi was also very surprised that her eldest brother would bring Yan Xi here without her receiving any notice.
The women present were filled with envy and hatred. Marrying into the Lu family of Modu was something that made people extremely jealous.
The surrounding whispers of envy suddenly erupted into a clamor.
Yan Xi looked at Jiang Nuan with a smug and provocative expression.
"Oh! So it's Lu Jinyue, the one who collects trash." Nan Zhou smiled, looking at Jiang Nuan, "Nuan Nuan, this banquet tonight has tainted our eyes. I've failed you. I apologize."
Jiang Nuan was unsure what he knew. She frowned slightly and said nothing.
Lu Jinyue's expression turned very grim. What did he mean by Lu Jinyue who collects trash?
Yan Xi frowned, sensing that Nan Zhou's words had hidden meanings, and a bad premonition arose within her.
"Third Young Master, what do you mean?"
Nan Zhou looked at Yan Xi and said, "She, Yan Xi, right?"
Lu Jinyue nodded, "That's right, it's her."
Nan Zhou smiled, "Then it's quite a coincidence. When I was abroad, I was paid by a rich second-generation to investigate this young lady. This young lady changes boyfriends like she changes clothes. As long as she latches onto a rich second-generation, gets a sum of money, and then leaves. If I'm not mistaken, Lu Jinyue, you also woke up in a hotel and found her beside you by the bed."
"This Miss Yan Xi has used such methods to sleep with eighty rich second-generations. I wonder which number you are?"
Everyone: "..."
Jiang Nuan stared at Nan Zhou in shock. She didn't know about such explosive news!
Lu Jinyue never dreamed that he would be hit by such a bomb as soon as he arrived.
That's right, he was on a business trip abroad. That night, he drank too much and couldn't remember what happened. The next morning, he woke up to find Yan Xi lying beside him.
He was an honest and upright person with strong moral values, and he was more deeply devoted to women than any other man. Yan Xi was beautiful and was his type, so he brought her back to cultivate their relationship.
Yan Xi was gentle and kind, and he and his family all thought Yan Xi was very good, so he got engaged to Yan Xi.
But what was he hearing now?
How could he, Lu Jinyue, encounter such a woman?
Everyone: "..." This drama keeps getting more and more exciting!
Yan Xi's eyes widened, her mouth agape, unable to believe what she was hearing.
This scoundrel, how could he ruin her hard-won happiness like this?
Her intention in coming to Jinshi was simply to let Jiang Nuan know how unattainable she was now.
"Jinyue, don't believe what he says. I don't know what I did to offend him for him to treat me like this?" Yan Xi began to cry pitifully.
Nan Zhou narrowed his eyes. Indeed, Yan Xi had not offended him, but she had offended Jiang Nuan.
Because of this matter, and because of that rich second-generation, he had genuinely investigated this Miss Yan Xi. This woman was extremely, extremely despicable. Because of her beauty, she specifically targeted rich second-generations.
Such a disreputable and卑鄙 woman, even seeing her eye was an insult to his own.
"Yan Xi, I'm not that idle to target you specifically. Among so many women present, why would I recognize you alone?"
After speaking, Nan Zhou looked at Lu Jinyue again, "Lu Jinyue, if you don't believe me, you can come to me anytime to get the USB drive and watch. I have videos of her with every man. Of course, if you're willing to take back the trash, that would also be saving other rich second-generations."
Lu Jinyue was furious, "I'm not a savior! Why should I save other rich second-generations? Give me the USB drive now."
"Lu Jinyue, don't you believe me either?" Yan Xi was anxious and scared. She was already this age and didn't want to play anymore.
She had finally found a stable home. Did it have to end like this before she even entered the door?
Lu Jinyue frowned, looking at her, "If you didn't do anything, what are you afraid of?"
"I didn't do anything, Jinyue, let's go." Yan Xi tugged at his hand. She had made a mistake by coming here.
"Let go. I must confirm it myself." Lu Jinyue angrily shook off her hand.
"Ah..." Yan Xi was thrown by him and fell heavily to the ground.
The sharp pain in her ankle made her grit her teeth tightly. Looking at the mocking stares of the crowd, Yan Xi wished she could vanish on the spot.
She, who was usually exquisite and elegant, had never been so embarrassed and humiliated.
Jiang Nuan watched all of this with indifference. She wouldn't care about the fate of a piece of excrement.
"Jiang Nuan, help me. My ankle is sprained." She looked at Jiang Nuan, her tone commanding.
Jiang Nuan smiled, "I'm sorry, my hands are weak and have no strength to help you."
Seeing Yan Xi get treated this way right after arriving made her very happy.
Everyone: "..." No one could compare to her. Her excuses for refusing were so forthright.
"It seems I'm still in time. This Miss Yan Xi has also done something outrageous." From within the crowd, another gentle and magnetic voice rang out.
