My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 139 - 137 The Name of Arrogance1

Director Gu spoke, and Gu Yaoyao shyly hid in Wu Feng’s embrace, yet her eyes kept searching the crowd for Yao Lemon’s figure.

No matter how much she tries to flaunt, hasn’t she still lost?

At this moment, Yao Lemon, engulfed in surrounding darkness, clenched her small hands tightly while watching the ostensibly happy couple on stage.

Suddenly, a warm palm covered her clenched fist.

Yao Lemon looked up and saw Lin Zhenxin smiling slightly, her gaze on the profiles of those on stage.

"Does it hurt?" Lin Zhenxin asked.

Yao Lemon was taken aback. To say she wasn’t sad would be insincere, but admitting she was felt like conceding defeat.

"However sad you feel now, I’ll make Gu Yaoyao repay it twice over."

As Director Gu finished speaking, applause erupted in the room, and naturally, Lin Zhenxin also clapped her hands lightly.

Yao Lemon, on the other hand, was staring blankly at Lin Zhenxin who had just spoken. What did... what did she mean?

After the applause, a simple ceremony was about to begin, with the spotlight focused on Wu Feng and Gu Yaoyao, who smiled sweetly.

Lin Zhenxin suddenly noticed someone approaching her side.

"About that night, I’m sorry." It was He Bainian’s voice.

Actually, although He Bainian was on the guest list for today’s event, he originally wasn’t planning to attend.

If not for the prior investigation on Lin Zhenxin, discovering her friends had relations with the fiancé of Director Gu’s daughter, his first instinct upon receiving Li Miya’s call would likely have been a cold refusal before hanging up.

Mentioning that night caused Lin Zhenxin’s anger to flare; it certainly wasn’t a pleasant memory.

"Is your assistant still alive?" This was spoken with extreme sarcasm.

He Bainian was momentarily silent.

Yao Lemon noticed something seemed off with Lin Zhenxin and turned to see a man standing beside her.

Looking closely, wasn’t it He Bainian?

She immediately tensed up, wanting to pull Lin Zhenxin to her side, but before she could reach out...

Suddenly, Gu Yaoyao’s scream came through the microphone from the stage.

It’s happening!

Lin Zhenxin ignored He Bainian, her gaze slowly shifting to the stage.

"Turn on the lights!" Gu Yaoyao screamed angrily, completely heedless of the occasion.

With a click, the lights turned on brightly, revealing everyone’s expressions clearly.

In no time, Yao Lemon noticed not only Gu Yaoyao and Wu Feng’s gaze from the stage, but many other guests were also looking at Lin Zhenxin!

Unaware of what transpired earlier, Yao Lemon’s heart raced.

Li Miya widened her eyes in disbelief, turning to her side...

He Bainian was indeed nowhere to be seen!

When did he move to Lin Zhenxin’s side?

"Look at what you’ve done!"

Tears welled up in Gu Yaoyao’s eyes, as if deeply wronged, her finger cutting through the crowd straight at Lin Zhenxin...

Lin Zhenxin chuckled softly and walked forward.

He Bainian wanted to grab her but knew countless eyes were watching, so he reluctantly withdrew his hand and clenched it.

"Engagement is a joyful event, why blame me instead?"

Lin Zhenxin spoke while walking forward, her moon-white cocktail dress adorned with small diamonds twinkling along her calves.

Moving gracefully, each glance and smile was full of elegance and composure, with no trace of fear or worry.

Upon closer inspection, the emerald necklace that was hanging around Gu Yaoyao’s neck, now lay broken on the ground...

The breakage on the jade surface was obvious.

"The gift you and your aunt gave, I specially wore it to show my respect for you, but you... gave me such a shoddy item. Say! You did this on purpose to embarrass me, didn’t you?" Gu Yaoyao’s pitiful tone even made her eyes tear up.

"The jade is shattered, does it imply a break between me and... Dad, I don’t care, help me!"

Gu Yaoyao began to sob on Wu Feng’s chest.

——That’s the wife of the Li Family’s bastard.

——Li Yanan’s wife?

——Isn’t he the one from the Li Family that everyone avoids, the one who’s supposedly hideous and dressed horribly, that Li Yanan?

——How could she afford to give an emerald necklace?

"Lin Zhenxin, how could you afford jade? That little jerk is dirt poor, did you give a fake one?"

Li Miya suddenly sneered, and her words caused a wave among the crowd.

People of status maintained their postures, but the younger crowd had already started passing judgment on Lin Zhenxin.

Lin Zhenxin’s gaze fell upon Li Miya; she truly was a textbook example of not remembering past lessons.

Despite being reprimanded by Li Yanan, her mouth still knew no bounds.

"I think it looks fake too, just like the clothes she’s wearing today, and she still dares to show up..."

The person speaking was the same woman Lin Zhenxin had splashed with watermelon juice earlier, now wearing a new outfit, standing next to Gu Yaoyao.

Xun Chen furrowed his brow, realizing the jade necklace was merely an excuse; Gu Yaoyao clearly intended to use Lin Zhenxin as a scapegoat!

Yet Lin Zhenxin seemed indifferent to the rumors, instead turning to gesture Yao Lemon over quickly!

No one knew what Lin Zhenxin whispered in her ear, but Yao Lemon glanced back at her with a peculiar expression.

"Go on!" Lin Zhenxin gave her shoulder a gentle shove.

Yao Lemon, regaining her senses, turned and left.

——It’s said the Li Family’s bastard is extremely ugly, and dresses poorly, what could she see in him?

——Maybe she has a taste for the bizarre?

Some socialites laughed privately, but every word was heard clearly by Lin Zhenxin.

"So, Miss Gu, what do you want?"

Lin Zhenxin didn’t even glance at the fallen jade before slowly walking toward Gu Yaoyao.

Whether she meant to or not, she stepped right over the jade necklace.

With a crunch, the already cracked jade shattered completely.

"Miss, please..." Director Gu hadn’t finished speaking when his daughter cut in.

"I’m not superstitious, but something breaking at an occasion like this, you have to give me an explanation. I want..."

Gu Yaoyao’s tearful eyes stared at her fiercely.

"What do you want?" Lin Zhenxin retorted.

"I want you to kneel and kowtow three times, and then we’re done!"

Gu Yaoyao’s demand caused an uproar, even leaving Director Gu feeling embarrassed.

Wu Feng’s fists clenched tightly.

Lin Zhenxin said nothing, her bright eyes just looked at Gu Yaoyao with an expression that was both smiling and not.

"Do you want me to kneel because the necklace is fake, or because dropping it is taboo?"

There should be a reason for making her kneel in front of so many people, right?

"Both! I felt something was wrong with the necklace when I held it, you did it on purpose!"

Gu Yaoyao’s wide eyes showed she was clearly not willing to let go!

Any elder with some experience would understand the necklace was just a pretext.

However, none planned to stand up for Lin Zhenxin!

He Bainian’s gaze grew colder, darker, but before he could speak, he felt someone looking at him.

He raised his head to meet Xun Chen’s eyes!

"I kindly gave you a necklace, Miss Gu, yet you make such trouble for me..."

"Pah, who do you think you are, saying our Yaoyao made trouble for you?"

The watermelon juice girl caught Gu Yaoyao’s eye and looked disdainful.

"Judging by your husband, it’s clear what kind of person you are. Don’t think marrying Li Yanan means stepping into high society! Who doesn’t know what Li Yanan really is?"

Lin Zhenxin’s smile grew broader, yet her eyes grew colder. freeweɓnøvel~com

Just in time, Yao Lemon, who had been gone for a while, finally returned, holding something.

When others saw, they couldn’t help but widen their eyes!

Yao Lemon had brought back a feather duster?

Before anyone could react, Lin Zhenxin suddenly grabbed the feather duster from Yao Lemon and struck the watermelon juice girl hard!

A sharp cry echoed, the woman was terrified by the sudden pain, while Lin Zhenxin, seemingly venting, continued to lash at her!

She even followed the rule of not hitting the face, focusing on the thinnest parts of the woman’s body!

The watermelon juice girl tried to escape, but Lin Zhenxin just yanked her back by the hair, pulling her close again!

No hint of a smile remained?

"With such a foul mouth, aren’t you afraid of suffocating others? Who is my husband to be mocked by a nobody like you?"

Lin Zhenxin continued hitting while speaking, eyes fixed on Li Miya!

No one expected Lin Zhenxin to fly into such a fit of rage, or so suddenly.

One moment, she was a charming lady; the next, she was a fierce tigress!

"You dare hit me! I’m going to call..."

The woman was crying and yelling, but no one dared to interfere!

The surrounding people formed a circle, watching the scene unfold!

"Even if you call heaven and earth, it won’t work!" Lin Zhenxin said, holding the feather duster with a cold sneer.

The woman’s hair and clothes turned disheveled, her body marked with welts!

Having never experienced such a situation before, just one look from Lin Zhenxin made her legs weak!

Xun Chen couldn’t help but cover his face with his hand.

Although he had anticipated Lin Zhenxin’s outburst, no one would have guessed the method would be so unusual!

A feather duster?

What was she thinking?

"Enough! Call security!"

Director Gu couldn’t contain his anger, shouting loudly. The engagement ceremony was now utterly ruined!

"Enough?" Lin Zhenxin coldly laughed at this, looking at Gu Yaoyao.

"You wanted me to kneel, right?"

With a slight lift of her chin, Lin Zhenxin directed her words at Gu Yaoyao.

Gu Yaoyao felt a chill down her spine, utterly shocked that Lin Zhenxin could be so audacious and brazen!

Even daring to hit someone in front of all these people!

Doesn’t she care about losing face?

"You..."

"Didn’t you say this necklace is fake, and dropping it is taboo?"

"If that’s not the case, do you dare to apologize to me?"

Lin Zhenxin raised the feather duster, gripping the shiny handle so tightly that her knuckles turned white, clearly struggling to contain her anger!

Her words were aggressive, no less forceful than Gu Yaoyao’s arrogance moments ago!
