Chapter 142: A Famous Joke in the Circle

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Huamei and Natural’s banquet was held in a high-class venue. The entire venue used a square table, and the flowers on the table were actually red spider lilies. The flower stamens blossomed among the silverware and were then decorated with exquisite Chinese tableware. This was a dream scene that the Ye Family mother and daughter had never seen before.

Miss Wang led Ye Zhenzhen and her daughter to their seats, while the other two ladies cooperated with Miss Wang to surround the two ladies from both sides. They did not give the two of them a chance to escape, nor did they allow Qiao Jiawei to approach the mother and daughter.

Although this was a Chinese banquet, the banquet was filled with languages from all over the world. The guests were all chatting with each other. Only the mother and daughter of the Ye Family were sitting on pins and needles, contributing to their behaviour and temperament that was incompatible with the occasion.

It was not for anything else but for fear of making mistakes.

Everyone else was like a fish in water, but these two were like hard ice cubes. Who would not feel embarrassed and tortured for them?

Qiao Jiawei chased after them. As there were no empty seats beside the mother and daughter of the Ye Family, she could only sit at the side. However, when she saw the state of the mother and daughter, she became even angrier.

Because from the moment the mother and daughter entered, everyone’s eyes seemed to be scrutinizing and their smiles seemed to be mocking. What was even more uncomfortable was that Qiao Jiawei’s ability would also be questioned.

Wasn’t she training them? This was the result?

Qiao Jiawei could not take it anymore and sent a message to both mother and daughter: “I’ve taught you so much. Can you not be like a block of wood? There was no need for sculptures in the venue. Can you be more elegant? Take it easy? Even if you don’t have any inner beauty, you have to pretend to have.” Tne two or tnem                 as sne said, Dut tney seemea even more pretentious.

“Aiya, don’t be nervous, the two of you. Come a few more times and you’ll get to Imow each other.” Wang Ruoling turned her head and looked at the two of them with a smile. “Everyone is very casual on this occasion. Look at you. The guests are all looking at you tonight. The fashion sense tonight is really great. The outside world has been saying bad things about you, but I think you’re very good. Most importantly, you and your daughter are really beautiful. Therefore, you don’t have to care about the gazes of the outside world. I’ll tell you quietly that there are many illegitimate children and lovers at this banquet today. Who do you think has stage fright?”

“And the one from the Lin Family, wasn’t she chased out of the wealthy family? If she can be self-consistent, then you don’t have to be so reserved. You’re the real daughters of the Lin family.”

“Let me tell you another secret. Actually, many people here don’t like her.

Think about it, who would like a private secretary?”

“Also, who do you like tonight? Point it out to me. Maybe I can matchmake a couple?”

If Qiao Jiawei’s words were overbearing and oppressive, then Wang Ruoling’s flattery was extremely pleasing.

That’s right, if Lin Xueyi was not afraid of awkwardness, why should they be afraid?

Besides, just as Wang Ruoling said, wasn’t this place full of secrets and corruption from wealthy families? As the daughters of the Lin Family, how could they not be presentable?

With Wang Ruoling’s reassurance, the two of them finally relaxed and put on some arrogance.

Although Qiao Jiawei could tell that something was amiss, it was still better than looking like a block of wood. Right now, she only hoped that this mother-and-daughter pair could stay safe until the end and not make any more jokes for her.

“I’ve been snatching this limited edition bag in Sister Ye’s hand for a long time, but I still couldn’t get it. You really have good taste.”

“And auntie, your figure is like a model’s. You’ve taken good care of yourself.”

Wang Ruoling was very good at praising people. She made the mother and daughter feel as if they were floating in the air.

The two of them relaxed their breathing, and their eyes were filled with a hint of their usual arrogance. It was as if these people in front of them were not so unattainable.

However, at this moment, the difference came. This was because the person in charge of Natural had entered the banquet hall with Lin Xueyi, chatting and laughing. Her every move was confident and charming, just like the host of this banquet.

In the end, Lin Xueyi sat down with Natural’s person in charge. After the person in charge of Natural left, Lin Xueyi looked at the mother and daughter. She did not expect the two of them to stay. She did not know what method Ah Li used.

Facing Lin Xueyi’s gaze, the mother and daughter of the Ye Family stared back at her in the same manner. Their eyes seemed to be saying, “We are the daughters of the Lin Family. What are you?”

However, it was clear that Lin Xueyi was not on the same page as the mother and daughter. Lin Xueyi was purely watching the show. After sizing up the mother and daughter, she calmly retracted her gaze and shook her head to show that the mother and daughter were still as brainless as ever.

The venue was very air-conditioned. The person in charge of Natural was afraid that Lin Xueyi would be cold, so he specially sent a shawl over.

Lin Xueyi put it on happily and then lowered her head to play with her phone.

At this moment, Miss Wang deliberately turned her head to the mother and daughter and said, “She still thinks that she’s the daughter of the Lin Family, but she doesn’t know that others are laughing at her behind her back.” “Really?” Ye Zhenzhen asked excitedly.

“Of course, you’ll know in the future.

The mother and daughter did not know that she was the person in charge of Natural. They only felt that Miss Wang’s words made them happy. She had thought that the Lin Family mother and daughter were as bright as they appeared.

In the end, it was all an illusion created by Lin Wanli.

Qiao Jiawei had been observing the expressions of the mother and daughter. The two of them were confused, happy, and confident at the same time, which really puzzled her.

What puzzled her even more was why the person in charge of Natural was so attentive to Lin Xueyi. She was clearly a person who had been expelled from a wealthy family, but she enjoyed all the highlights of the entire banquet. What trick did Lin Wanli use?

“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Huamei and Natural’s national fashion show. Tonight, you are the brightest stars.”

The host of Natural walked out of the aisle with a microphone in his hand.

“Wow, other than some familiar faces, I didn’t expect there to be fresh and beautiful women tonight.” As the host spoke, he walked to the mother and daughter of the Ye Family and leaned between them. “Welcome, ladies. I wonder if you have any feelings to share with us after watching the show?”

The mother and daughter looked at each other. Finally, Ye Zhenzhen said, “It was very shocking. It was like watching a soul-stirring story.”

“It seems that Miss Ye is very touched by our show. Then we must make things difficult for you later. We’ll keep you in suspense first.”

After saying that, the host walked away.

At this moment, the Ye Family’s mother and daughter looked in Qiao Jiawei’s direction. They were relieved to see that Qiao Jiawei was satisfied with the wine. However, Ye Zhenzhen’s movements were too big. She tripped the silver wine pot and spilt it all over the table. She even knocked the wine glass to the ground.

This time, the entire place fell silent. All the guests turned their eyes to Ye Zhenzhen.

Qiao Jiawei wanted to stand up and stop her, but it was too late. Ye Zhenzhen stood up and apologized awkvvardly in every direction..
