Chapter 304 - Does Mama Approve Of Him? (2)
It had been a great relief for Su Xiaofei that her mother wasn't against her relationship with Lu Qingfeng this time. In her previous life, it had been the greatest regret in her life – that she didn't listen to her mother's advice about picking Mo Yuchen. Perhaps her mother had sensed that she was being deceived by him and that he wouldn't cherish her once she was married to the Mo family.
When they returned inside their home, Su Xiaofei was then bombarded with greetings from Xiao Rufeng and Shen Jiao, while Xi Qian just grinned at her. She should have known that these girls wouldn't let her leave unscathed today.
"Feifei, how come you never told us that today is your birthday? If Xi Qian hadn't invited us, we would be oblivious that today's your special day." Shen Jiao complained, but there was a smile on her face as she dragged Su Xiaofei away from the other guests.
Su Xiaofei groaned as she was being reminded of it.
"I attended a gathering last night. I didn't even know that my mother and Lu Qingfeng would choose to hold a celebration today."
"Didn't you go to Top Tier's party last night? Don't tell me Ye Mingyu tried to cause you trouble again?" Xi Qian chose to interrogate her best friend for what happened last night.
"Ye Mingyu? Isn't that your father's other daughter?" Shen Jiao asked in curiosity, leaving Xiao Rufeng in shock.
"Wait! You mean to say that Ye Mingyu is your half-sister?" She blurted out in surprise, but immediately covered her mouth and blushed upon realizing that she was out of line for asking Su Xiaofei that question.
"It's okay, Miss Xiao. It wasn't a secret that my father cheated on my mother anyway. I already expected that she might use this information in the future to her advantage." Su Xiaofei told the young actress, before answering her best friend's question.
"Actually, Qian. I met Ye Mingyu last night, but she wasn't the only one I met there."
Xi Qian shot her brows up, staring at Su Xiaofei's eyes, trying to see if she could get a hint, but there was none.
"Who?" She conceded. She must have known who the person was because Su Xiaofei wouldn't have this amused glint in her eyes otherwise.
"Mo Yuchen. Ye Mingyu arrived at the venue with him as her plus one." Su Xiaofei said without batting an eyelid.
Xi Qian was thankful that she wasn't drinking anything at the moment, or else she would have spat her drink hearing about Ye Mingyu's shamelessness. Who would have thought that Ye Mingyu managed to get a hold over that annoying and arrogant Mo Yuchen?
"Hmm… Ye Mingyu isn't planning to provoke you by seducing your ex-fiance, right?" Shen Jiao cupped her chin as she gave it a good thought. Of course, she knew who Ye Mingyu and Mo Yuchen were, but she only found out how Su Xiaofei was related to the two a year after she befriended her and Xi Qian.
Meanwhile, Xiao Rufeng's jaws dropped upon hearing all these details. She hadn't expected that her manager had such a complicated history with Mo Yuchen and Ye Mingyu.
"What's so surprising about it? Ye Mingyu used to covet whatever Feifei have in the past. While it's true that it isn't Ye Mingyu's fault to be born from a mistress, she should have considered not following her mother's path by being another man's mistress." Xi Qian said in annoyance. She had thought that Ye Mingyu would grow some braincells and would leave Su Xiaofei alone, but she proved Xi Qian wrong.
Xiao Rufeng frowned and looked at her manager with a worried expression on her face. She didn't like that Ye Mingyu would throw mud at Su Xiaofei and may drag her into a scandal to gain popularity. The fact that Ye Mingyu sought Su Xiaofei's ex-fiance only sullied her reputation in Xiao Rufeng's eyes. However, looking at Su Xiaofei, Xiao Rufeng realized that her manager didn't seem bothered by Ye Mingyu's attempt to provoke her.
"Calm down, Qian. I'm the least person Ye Mingyu should be worried about. She should have known that Mo Yuchen is like a hot potato. Whoever dared to seduce him, the person they would offend now isn't me, but Huang Jingjing." Su Xiaofei smiled, confident that Ye Mingyu was only inviting trouble to her door when she dared to use Cai Lin and sought after Mo Yuchen to provoke her.
In her previous life, after Ye Mingyu ditched Cai Lin once he had served his purpose, the man lost a few screws in his head and had stalked Ye Mingyu. She was only able to get rid of Cai Lin for good because of Mo Yuchen, forcing the man to take his own life in the process.
However, now, who would protect Ye Mingyu from Cai Lin's obsession towards her? It was clear to Su Xiaofei that Mo Yuchen and Ye Mingyu weren't in a romantic relationship, given how Mo Yuchen treated the woman next to him. It was as if he would rather be somewhere else than to accompany Ye Mingyu to the party last night.
He was the CEO of another entertainment agency anyway and while Su Xiaofei was the managing director of Bluemedia, she was still a newbie compared to him. However, because of the life debt the Ouyang family owed her, and given that she was now acknowledged as the granddaughter of the esteemed Yun family, Su Xiaofei being seen to the party last night was normal, but not for Mo Yuchen.
Ye Mingyu might have not realized it yet, but by bringing Mo Yuchen with her last night, she gave the management of Top Tier Entertainment an indirect slap to their faces, disrespecting them.
By now, Su Xiaofei expected that they were displeased with Ye Mingyu's actions.. If they were going to reprimand Ye Mingyu or cut off her resources, she would have to face the consequences of her actions last night.
