Chapter 568: Mutual Jealousy (2)

Wen Ruo’s eyes burned as she gazed in the direction of Zhai Yunsheng. However, when she looked in that direction, the man had already moved away from his original position.

Cai Qinyue’s eyes swept over the venue. Her eyes fell on Qin Yufan.

Then, she said to Wen Ruo: “That young lady is Qin Yufan. She’s the Young Lady of the Qin family. If you have an opportunity, you should try to be friends with her.”

Wen Ruo nodded before she looked at Qin Yufan.

Qin Yufan was currently speaking to the big shots and business elites. She was brimming with confidence when she spoke to them. In fact, she was not timid at all. Rather, she took a dominant position. It was as though she was a queen.

Ahhh, so that’s the Young Lady of the Qin family.

Unexpectedly, Zhai Yunsheng saw Jian Yiling.

Today, Jian Yiling wore a black evening dress which highlighted her delicate figure.

The knee-high dress was simple in style. It had shoulder straps and a girdle.

Her hair that was usually tied in a ponytail was also let down. In addition, there was a simple decoration that fixed her hair in place.

Jian Yiling’s figure was as slim as before.

However, she usually wore comfy clothes. Those clothes did not highlight her figure.

Jian Yiling did not see Zhai Yunsheng. However, Qin Yufan took the initiative to greet Jian Yiling.

“Oh, you really did come,” Qin Yufan commented with a smile on her face.

“Mhmm.”

“The black diamond on your hair is nice,” Qin Yufan complimented.

The ordinary looking headpiece on Jian Yiling’s hair was a very rare black diamond.

Black diamonds could be discovered but could not be sought after. Even with a large sum of money, sometimes, these diamonds could not be bought.

If Qin Yufan remembered correctly, Jian Yiling’s hair decoration was the one which was sold in the Jia Shi auction one year ago.

If she remembered correctly, that diamond was auctioned off by a mysterious person. Was that person a member of the Jian family?

“Thank you.”

“Are you here today because of Qin Chuan?”

“I suppose so.”

Upon hearing this answer, Qin Yufan had a feeling that she would be able to see the drama unfold today.

As Qin Yufan was talking to Jian Yiling, Cai Qinyue and Wen Ruo came over as well.

“Cousin,” Wen Ruo called out. Then, she looked at Qin Yufan and asked: “Who is she? Is she a friend of your?”

“She isn’t,” Jian Yiling replied.

Jian Yiling did not categorize people as her friends indiscriminately.

Furthermore, she assumed that Qin Yufan would not want others to classify her as a friend as well.

Qin Yufan’s words were caught in her mouth.

Typically, she usually answered no to these questions. However today, Jian Yiling answered no for her.

Hmm... This girl really had the ability to annoy people.

Qin Yufan extended her hand. She took the initiative to shake hands with Wen Ruo. Then, she introduced herself: “Hello, my name is Qin Yufan.”

Wen Ruo hurriedly replied: “Hello, my name is Wen Ruo. I’m Jian Yiling’s cousin.”

When Wen Ruo’s hand came into contact with Qin Yufan, Wen Ruo was quite excited.

On the side, Cai Qinyue’s face was full of smiles as well.

“Yiling, why are you here by yourself?” Cai Qinyue asked. Her tone was filled with concern.

Did Qin Chuan only invite Jian Yiling? Was that reasonable?

Or was their relationship not that simple?

Did Jian Yiling attract Qin Chuan with her looks or something?

If that really was the case, then it seemed as though the sparrow was going to become a phoenix.

“Something came up,” Jian Yiling replied.

“Well, you should stay with us then. We can take care of you,” Cai Qinyue said. She enthusiastically invited Jian Yiling to sit with them.

“Nah, she can come with me. After all, I know the friend she plans to see,” Qin Yufan said with a smile.
