Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife
Chapter 2163 - 626: An Li Scandal, Jiang Xuerou’s Scheme (Part 4)
Good! Very good! This young girl is so young, yet she has such deep scheming! She anticipated that I wouldn’t let it go, so she has already drawn the whole circle of people around to oppose him!
"Old Master, there are still some matters at the Galaxy Sect to deal with, I shall take my leave first." Having spoken, Jiang Zirong left the hall with quick strides before Li Yuhang could open his mouth to speak.
Jiang Xuerou bit her lip and gave Li Yuphei, who had a blank expression, a resentful look. Then she stomped her feet and followed Jiang Zirong out with a livid face.
The woman in green who had arrived with the father and daughter duo nodded apologetically to the Li Family members and followed them out.
"Grandpa, that woman is...?" Li Yuphei furrowed his brows, his gaze falling on the silhouette of the woman in green.
Old Master Li shook his head, "Never seen her."
At this point, Li Jiahao, who had been silent, suddenly burst out laughing.
"Haha, I know this woman. She’s Jiang Xuerou’s close friend, used to study abroad with her, heard that her family situation wasn’t good. A few years ago, when Jiang Xuerou came back from abroad, this woman also followed suit. Then somehow, she ended up marrying Jiang Zirong, turning from Jiang Xuerou’s close friend into her stepmother. I still remember this being a laughing stock in my circle, Jiang Xuerou stormed off abroad again in anger, naturally, she also brought the woman out with her."
Li Yuphei and Old Master Li listened, jaw-dropped, not expecting such a scandalous history from the Jiang Family.
"Jiang Zirong has quite an appetite, even his daughter’s good friend didn’t escape his attention." A voice with laughter came over, An Yiqing, who had shaken off the crowd, walked over with champagne, "Sorry Grandpa Li, it was all because of me earlier that caused trouble at the banquet."
"What is this young girl saying? Isn’t the banquet still going smoothly now?" Old Master Li waved his hand nonchalantly, "That father and daughter from the Jiang Family, I find them unpleasant, especially that Jiang Xuerou, her look at my Yu Fei was as if she wanted to eat him."
An Yiqing laughed, glancing with schadenfreude at the helpless expression of Li Yuphei, "Young Master Li is quite lucky with women."
Li Yuphei’s mouth twitched, silently turning his head, feeling like his eyes hurt looking at An Yiqing.
Thus, a tumultuous banquet ended amidst laughter and compliments. An Yiqing’s identity was also officially unveiled within Flower Island’s circle of elites. Similarly, the news of Yangsheng Palace’s upcoming entrance into Flower Island was spreading like wildfire overnight.
From that day on, many people sought to contact An Yiqing. Some wanted to establish connections with the An Family, while others genuinely sought medical consultations. For those seeking connections, An Yiqing dismissed them all. For those seeking medical advice, An Yiqing kept the ones with severe conditions while advising the ones with milder conditions to either go to the hospital or wait for a month and a half until the Xuanjin Hall branch opens for appointments.
Thus, the news of Xuanjin Hall’s entrance into Flower Island after a month and a half swept through the entire circle once again, following the news of Yangsheng Palace.
Three days later, rumors about Yangsheng Palace and Xuanjin Hall had gradually faded. However, at this moment, Flower Island’s largest media outlet—Flower Island Entertainment—released a piece of news that left everyone stunned.
An Yiqing, the granddaughter of Elder Commander Xuanjin, after getting registered with the third master of the Gu Family, had some improper relations with the Li Family heir, Li Yuphei in Flower Island!
Flower Island Entertainment extensively reported this incident online and in magazines, accompanied by several photos of An Yiqing and Li Yuphei alone together. In the photos, Li Yuphei gazes at An Yiqing, his smile warm.
As soon as this report came out, everyone went crazy.
Firstly, the elite circle went crazy. In this circle, everyone knew Li Yuphei as a renowned cold-faced Yama Raja in the business world, always polite yet cold and distant to everyone. A smile like the one in the photos was truly a once-in-a-blue-moon sight!
Unconsciously, everyone recalled Li Yuphei and Li Yuhang’s protection and favor towards An Yiqing at the last Li Family banquet, and if there wasn’t some underlying issue, they wouldn’t believe it.
Of course, while some believed such gossip, naturally some did not. Many who had benefited from Xuanjin Pharmaceuticals or An Yiqing came forward to express that Li Yuhang was healed by An Yiqing, so why shouldn’t the Li family’s grandfather and grandson treat her better? Should they treat their life-saving benefactor coldly instead?
While the arguments in the elite circle weren’t over, a wave of opinions in the public sphere attacked once again.
