BXBX NOVEL Chapter 262 - 262: She Probably Got Plastic Surgery
“What a beautiful woman!” Jiang Ling’er couldn’t help but exclaim when she saw the woman. “Moreover, she has such a good temperament!”
Gu Yinian said with certainty, “She probably got plastic surgery,”
Jiang Ling’er was speechless. She couldn’t even tell.
Li Yu whispered, “This is the eldest cousin of the Wen family’s daughter, Shangguan Yunxi. She’s sworn enemies with the Wen family’s daughter.”
Jiang Ling’er was stunned. How did these cousins become sworn enemies?
She asked in confusion, “What happened between them?”
Li Yu replied, “I don’t know much either. However, the Shangguan family has always valued boys over girls. Hence, the Shangguan family’s daughter, who isn’t valued in her family, probably hates the Wen family’s daughter, who has been spoiled since birth. Moreover, she can be crushed in many ways. Unlike her cousin, she doesn’t have her own group of doting brothers.”
Jiang Ling’er laughed sarcastically and said, “That’s really funny. It’s not Nuannuan’s fault that she isn’t valued.”
Gu Yinian said, “Shangguan Yunxi wouldn’t care so much despite that. In today’s society, there are many people like this. They just can’t stand seeing others do better than them.”
Jiang Ling’er nodded and said, “Indeed, there are a lot. But if it were me, I would settle my own fate. If 1 have time to be jealous of others, 1 might as well make myself rich so that others can be jealous of me instead.”
Gu Yinian said, “Well, Shangguan Yunxi has no worries about food and clothing in the Shangguan family. Although her family favors sons over daughters, they still give her pocket money. If she left the family, she wouldn’t have such a good living condition like now.”
Li Yu said mockingly, “She knows that men are considered more important than women in her family, but she doesn’t want to improve herself. Instead, she only knows to humbly beg for charity from rich people. She deserves her current treatment, for sure.”
Jiang Ling’er said with a smile, “1 can only say that everyone has their own aspirations. By the way, 1 still don’t know what this dinner is about.”
Li Yu replied, “It’s for the Shangguan family’s eldest young master. Shangguan Lin has just returned to the country, so Old Master Shangguan intends to introduce some big shots to him.”
Jiang Ling’er asked, “1 see. So, Old Master Shangguan will be coming later?”
Chen Yizhou said, “He’s already here, isn’t he?”
She looked at the door and saw a handsome man and an old man with white hair walking in. Shangguan Yunxi, who had a strong aura just now, stood obediently at the side.
The guests also walked forward enthusiastically.
Jiang Ling’er asked as she looked at Li Yu, “Shouldn’t you guys go over and say hello?”
Li Yu shook his head, saying, “If you go over to greet them, you will have to be polite. However, even if you don’t go, it wouldn’t matter.”
She looked at Chen Yizhou, who also did not seem to have any intention of going over. Then, she turned to Gu Yinian. He was the same.
She smiled. It seems that as a guest, she didn’t have to worry about greeting the host.
Not long after, Old Master Shangguan walked over with Shangguan Lin and Shangguan Yunxi.
He said, “CEO Li, CEO Chen, and Young Master Gu, thank you for coming. Let me introduce you to my grandson, Shangguan Lin. He was studying abroad and now he has returned to develop his career. 1 hope everyone can take good care of him.”
Jiang Ling’er was a little shocked. She was standing right there, yet she had been ignored. How much did the Shangguan family look down on women?
Chen Yizhou said politely, “Old Master Shangguan, you’re too polite. We’re all of the same age. We should naturally help each other.”
Old Master Shangguan was very satisfied with Chen Yizhou’s answer. Then, he glanced at Shangguan Yunxi.
He scolded her, “Useless trash! Can’t you see that none of them have any wine cups in their hands?”
Shangguan Yunxi immediately called for a waiter and opened a bottle of champagne. She said, “CEO Li, CEO Chen, and Young Master Gu, let me pour you some wine.”
“No need. I’ll be driving later,” Li Yu said. It meant that he wasn’t planning to drink.
“Miss Shangguan, Young Master Gu and 1 also didn’t bring a driver tonight,” Chen Yizhou looked at Gu Yinian. It meant that the two of them didn’t want to drink either.
She was stunned and instinctively looked at Old Master Shangguan.
Old Master Shangguan was annoyed. Why was this woman so stupid?
He said with disdain, “You’re not sensible at all. They can’t drink wine, so can’t you get something else with no alcohol?”
She said awkwardly, “Wait a moment, I’ll go prepare it right away.”
Not long after, she personally brought over three drinks.
“Old Master Shangguan,” Li Yu said directly before she handed him the drink. “Can I have a glass of warm milk for my woman?”
Old Master Shangguan did not dare to provoke Li Yu.. He immediately said, “Of course! Yunxi, didn’t you hear what CEO Li said? Go get a glass of warm milk right now!”
