Chapter 21: The Engagement
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What are you talking about?”
Qin Xi immediately tugged at Jiang Yue in disapproval and rebuked, “Why would your sister snatch your fiancé? Besides, your sister is already engaged, how could she marry into the Gu Family?”
Jiang Yue’s eyes instantly turned red, as if she had been wronged. “As long as sister likes it, it doesn’t matter what happens to me.”
“If sister didn’t plan it, how could she be together with the Gu family not long after she returned?”
Jiang Yue’s words instantly caused everyone to discuss animatedly, and even the way they looked at Liu Feng was somewhat strange.
“No wonder she grew up in the countryside. She has no upbringing at all, and even wants her sister’s man.”
“It’s all thanks to Madam Jiang and Second Miss Jiang’s kind hearts. If it were me, I would have chased her out of the house long ago!”
Liu Feng turned a blind eye to the belittling and discussions around her. She only looked coldly at the pretentious mother and daughter opposite her.
“It seems that not only is your hearing not very good, but your comprehension skills are also problematic.”
“Not everyone takes what you regard as a treasure seriously.”
Liu Feng looked disdainfully at Jiang Yue, her eyes revealing a trace of disdain. “It’s just a man. There’s no need to hide him as if someone is trying to snatch it from you. I’ve said before that I have a boyfriend, so you can be at ease and guard your own fiancé. You don’t have to be so paranoid all day long.”
“Whether it’s the Gu family or the Chu family, whichever one of you is willing to marry, you can marry.”
Liu Feng slowly raised the corners of her lips at Qin Xi, but her eyes were filled with an irresistible look. “I won’t admit it.”
Then, Liu Feng’s gaze fell on the congratulatory gift in Driver Wang’s hand.
Since it was given to her, it was most likely a gift from the Old Master because of the previous treatment.
Liu Feng sensed that the Gu family seemed to be very secretive about the Old Master’s illness and did not name him. She only tactfully said, “Please help me thank the Old Master for his kindness, but it’s just a small matter, so you don’t have to give me a gift.”
Seeing that she was unwilling to accept it, Driver Wang’s eyes revealed a trace of admiration, so he did not force her. He nodded slightly and left with the gift.
Jiang He did not have the time to stop her. He could only watch as Driver Wang left with the gift. He glared at Liu Feng with a livid expression.
What a great opportunity!
As long as she accepted the GU family’s gift, it would confirm that the relationship between the Jiang family and the Gu family was extraordinary. By then, the Jiang family would definitely be able to use the Gu family’s power to turn the tide and climb back to the top.
However, all of this was ruined by Liu Feng’s pretense of nobility!
Jiang He was so angry that his mind was in a daze. He realized that this long-lost daughter was born to counter him!
If Jiang He had known earlier, he would have let her fend for herself outside.
Due to the incident with the gift, the entire banquet became awkward and strange. Jiang He took a deep breath and forced a smile to announce the end of the banquet. However, in his heart, he knew that the Jiang family’s reputation had been ruined.
Ignoring the looks of dismay on everyone’s faces, Jiang He left the venue with a dark expression. Qin Xi and Jiang Yue looked at each other and Qin Xi walked forward with a smile.
“Lil Feng, next month will be your wedding day with Chu Yu. You have to make some preparations during this period of time.”
Liu Feng’s brows instantly furrowed.
Liu Feng had repeatedly emphasized that she did not acknowledge her engagement with Chu Yu. However, it seemed that everyone had directly ignored her opinion and forcefully tied her and Chu Yu together.
The corners of Liu Feng’s lips curled up into a cold smile. She looked deeply at Qin Xi and pursed her red lips slightly. Liu Feng took large strides and turned around in a carefree manner. Like a gust of wind, she left the scene under everyone’s shocked and amazed gazes.
Jiang Yue held back a breath in her heart. When she returned to the room, she immediately exploded.
“Mom, what do you think the Gu family means? Don’t tell me they’re really going to marry that country bumpkin Liu Feng?!”
Jiang Yue walked around the room in jealousy and anger. Her voice was sharp, and she wanted nothing more than to chase Liu Feng out immediately.
Qin Xi, who was originally full of confidence, could not figure out the Gu family’s intentions either. Seeing Jiang Yue’s furious look, Qin Xi quickly went up to comfort her, “Don’t worry. You can go to the hospital to visit Old Master Gu tomorrow to find out what he has to say.”
It would be best to take the opportunity to find out how Liu Feng was related to the Gu Family.
Jiang Yue gritted her teeth and nodded hatefully.
