My Scheming Little Devil
Chapter 1314: What Exactly Does She Want to Do?
Ye Lu had a headache, it seemed that her godfather’s depth was truly bottomless.
"Let’s go downstairs." She walked down the stairs.
Yiren didn’t understand why Su Feiman appeared here, but she knew he was also a powerful backer she could rely on. Moreover, seeing the reaction of the guests at the scene and those gathered around him chatting and laughing, she was astonished. Su Feiman was indeed formidable, it seemed he was also very influential in North America.
She approached him naturally and warmly, taking his hand.
She introduced him proudly to the other guests, "This is a very important friend of my adoptive father, a senior who takes good care of me."
She well knew that each heavyweight individual could add a layer of gold to her, after all, high society also values connections. The more heavyweight individuals she knew, the more the families here would respect her, willing to befriend her and let her integrate into their circle.
As for Ye Lu, hmph, what kind of connections could this woman have, fighting a lone battle, she definitely couldn’t compare with oneself.
"Uncle Su, how come you’re here?" Yiren immediately shortened the distance in their relationship by addressing him, deliberately showing the surrounding guests that their relationship was very familiar.
Of course, she was also very curious about the motive behind Su Feiman’s appearance here.
Su Feiman smiled faintly, looking up at Ye Lu as she walked through the crowd towards him, "Miss Ye invited me to the banquet, how could I refuse to come?"
Yiren’s complexion suddenly changed, her eyes widening in surprise.
What, it was Ye Lu who invited him? What was going on, she couldn’t understand. Wasn’t Ye Lu supposed to be avoiding Su Feiman’s pursuit at all costs? Yet she dared to invite Su Feiman over.
Hua Lunxi was also surprised as he looked at Ye Lu, full of doubts. She had never told him that she had invited this person, what exactly did she want to do. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Ye Lu approached Su Feiman calmly, "Indeed, Mr. Su is here at my invitation."
She extended her hand arrogantly in front of Su Feiman, her facial expression without the slightest ripple, and her eyes showed not a trace of fear while facing Su Feiman.
"Mr. Su is my husband’s godfather and also my elder. It is only right and proper to invite him to my important banquet."
Su Feiman’s expression remained neutral as he took her hand.
"I am indeed surprised, but very pleased." The young lady actually had the courage to invite him, and he was curious to see what she was really up to.
The guests all expressed their surprise, not expecting Su Feiman and Ye Lu to have such a relationship.
"Haha, it looks like we are all family here. This Miss Hua can almost be considered Mr. Su’s half-daughter!" Mr. Karen, from the oil conglomerate standing beside Su Feiman, said with a laugh, showing much more enthusiasm towards Ye Lu.
The other guests also showed increased attention towards Ye Lu.
Yiren’s face immediately turned ugly, she cursed inwardly, this little, cheap, person Ye Lu. Su Feiman was her own ally, yet with just a few words, she made outsiders think that Su Feiman was very close to her.
This was clearly a way of using Su Feiman to snatch her connections. After all, she was truly the daughter of a friend, whereas Ye Lu was just the wife of an adopted son, their family connection certainly seemed closer than her own.
"Half-daughter I dare not claim." Yet Ye Lu suddenly spoke up with a smile, her gaze carrying a hint of peculiarity, her tone light and somewhat disrespectful, "Because I am very clear that my godfather actually doesn’t like me very much. It’s really a surprise that you accepted my invitation. I didn’t actually expect you to show up!"
As soon as she said this, it was as if a drop of water had fallen into a boiling pot of oil, this clearly sarcastic and provocative tone, appearing in the middle of this harmonious banquet atmosphere, was truly unexpected and embarrassing.
