Qin Xiaoxiao surveyed the surroundings and remarked, “Probably because they want to keep it low-key.”
Considering Bai Xue’s personality, the fact that there was no extravagant celebration or marriage announcement was indeed surprising.
Zhu Xiaotong furrowed her brow and said, “If they wanted to keep it low-key, why invite so many high-society figures, even including Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan?”
Qin Xiaoxiao smiled and replied, “Just wait and see. Get ready for some drama.”
Zhu Xiaotong instantly grasped the situation and began to anticipate it. She thought, maybe it would be interesting if Bai Xue and Jiang Ling’er got into a fight.
Jiang Ling’er’s unexpected presence surprised many attendees. After all, her engagement with Li Yan had only recently been dissolved. Now, with Li Yan celebrating another woman’s birthday so conspicuously, right in front of Jiang Ling’er, it was a massive slap in the face.
People who enjoyed gossiping started discussing it.
“Look, isn’t that the heiress of the Jiang family? Why is she here?”
“She must have been invited; otherwise, why would she come?”
“This heiress of the Jiang family has a terrible reputation. It’s highly likely she crashed the party!”
“Don’t make unfounded assumptions. 1 was right behind Miss Jiang and Miss Wen when they received their invitations.”
“I see. It’s still strange, though. If it were me, 1 wouldn’t invite her and let her witness their public display of affection.”
“Regardless, Miss Jiang doesn’t seem to care at all. She truly has remarkable courage.”
“Who cares who gave her the invitation?”
“Whoever invited her, she has the audacity to show up.”
“That’s true. If it were me, I’d never come here, seeing how elaborate this setup is. It’s quite the humiliation.”
“Don’t overthink it. Miss Jiang isn’t at fault. In fact, I think her appearance alone is a slap to the face of the host.”
“It seems like there’s more to this than meets the eye. Let’s just wait and watch the drama unfold.”
“With so many people here today, only a fool would cause trouble!”
After another half hour, Bai Xue made a grand entrance, accompanied by her assistant.
The onlookers couldn’t stop praising her, and the photographers were snapping pictures incessantly.
It was evident that these enthusiastic photographers were arranged by Bai Xue, most likely for the purpose of creating social media buzz.
The atmosphere now was much more lavish compared to the time Zhu Xiaotong had her birthday party. People were certainly giving face to the Li family.
However, Bai Xue was wearing a red dress. Although she looked very good, she still lost to Zhu Xiaotong because of her looks and temperament. Moreover, today’s theme was blue, which made her outfit completely out of place. Could it be that Li Yan was too busy to arrange her outfit?
Wen Nuan, observing this scene, couldn’t help but gloat, saying, “The theme is a mismatch, and she can’t outshine Zhu Xiaotong’s vibrant colors. Ling’er, what do you think she’s trying to pull off?”
Jiang Ling’er was equally perplexed. Could her speculation be wrong? Maybe the theme wasn’t arranged by Li Yan after all?
Jiang Ling’er replied, “To be honest, I’m not sure. I assumed Bai Xue would dress according to the theme and that they’d flaunt their affection later, with the worst-case scenario being Zhu Xiaotong overshadowing her.”
Wen Nuan murmured, “Isn’t this for the best?”
Jiang Ling’er smiled and agreed, “You’re right. If Zhu Xiaotong weren’t here, Bai Xue’s outfit would have been quite impressive.”
Wen Nuan wondered, “If Li Yan arranged the theme, and Bai Xue didn’t adhere to it, it could be quite awkward if he shows up. But why aren’t they coming together? Even before you annulled the engagement, they were already flaunting their affection relentlessly. So why are they choosing to be low-key now?”
Jiang Ling’er pondered for a moment, equally puzzled, and said, “Who knows? 1 suspect Li Yan decided on the theme of the party.”
Then, she looked at Baixue again. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Ling’er said, “Bai Xue hates blue so much. She must have seen the theme during her visit yesterday, and she can’t be pleased with this. As for why they’re not arriving together, they might be saving a big surprise.”
Wen Nuan frowned, asking, “What kind of surprise?”
Jiang Ling’er replied, “I’m just guessing. Otherwise, it’s hard to explain why they didn’t come together.”
Wen Nuan sighed, “Doesn’t really matter. But even if Bai Xue loses in the fashion department, she still has plenty of admirers.”
Jiang Ling’er, seeing Wen Nuan’s displeasure, whispered, “The Li family’s status is not as strong as the Zhu family’s.”
Wen Nuan agreed, saying, “You’re right. The Zhu family is rather remarkable. Not to mention, Li Yan’s company is just a tiny workshop.”
Only Wen Nuan would call Li Yan’s company a small workshop.
Jiang Ling’er smiled and said, “Let’s watch and wait; something’s bound to happen soon..”
