Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wen Nuan heard Jiang Ling’er’s words and gave a slight smile. She then said, “Today, with so many influential figures and socialites present, if Bai Xue is smart, she won’t make a fool of herself.”

Jiang Ling’er didn’t say much but smiled knowingly. If Bai Xue managed to avoid any awkward situations, it would indicate her improved social skills.

Seeing everyone’s attention on Bai Xue, Zhu Xiaotong couldn’t help but feel envious. She believed she was more attractive, but because Bai Xue was Li Yan’s girlfriend, everyone’s eyes were on her.

Zhu Xiaotong couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Hasn’t Bai Xue always liked to appear cute and innocent? Why is she suddenly dressed so seductively? Is she on the brink of being dumped, so she’s trying to secure her future by seducing someone else as a backup plan?’

Qin Xiaoxiao watched Zhu Xiaotong’s fake smile and thoroughly enjoyed her discomfort. She whispered, “Xiaotong, should we go say hello?”

Zhu Xiaotong initially considered refusing but then thought of her own beauty.

If she stood next to Bai Xue, she could overshadow her completely.

With this in mind, Zhu Xiaotong smiled and said, “Sure, let’s go.”

Bai Xue, the center of admiration from the crowd, felt extremely pleased with herself. However, when she saw Zhu Xiaotong and Qin Xiaoxiao approaching, her mood quickly soured. She couldn’t help but feel annoyed, especially with Zhu Xiaotong’s attire. It was clear she wasn’t here to celebrate but to challenge her.

Bai Xue’s thought process was that people like Zhu Xiaotong were opportunists who intended to flirt with influential figures during her birthday celebration.

Before Zhu Xiaotong and Qin Xiaoxiao could say anything, Bai Xue decided to take the high road. She said, “Wow, both of you look stunning today! It seems that I, the birthday girl, pale in comparison to you.”

Bai Xue’s gracious attitude instantly made her seem more refined, while Zhu Xiaotong and Qin Xiaoxiao appeared less polite.

Zhu Xiaotong initially planned to come over and show Bai Xue up, but she hadn’t expected Bai Xue’s gracious comment. Now, Zhu Xiaotong might have given the impression that she was being rude.

Qin Xiaoxiao, her face reddening with embarrassment, quickly thought of a response. She said, “Junior Sister Bai Xue, you’re indeed very sweet with your compliments. I’ve been here for a while, and no one has said 1 look good. Thank you for your compliment.”

Jiang Ling’er found the situation amusing. Qin Xiaoxiao had reacted swiftly with her compliment, which defused Bai Xue’s subtle attack.

However, Zhu Xiaotong was not as fortunate. She had been overly conspicuous when she arrived, and had already received much praise. Therefore, Qin Xiaoxiao’s reply was no help to Zhu Xiaotong.

Feeling embarrassed and angry at the same time, Zhu Xiaotong thought of a clever way out. She said, “Junior Sister, don’t tease me, alright? If what you said is true, then I’ve become the center of attention tonight. But isn’t it obvious who the real focus is on?”

Zhu Xiaotong’s statement was a subtle reminder to Bai Xue not to tarnish her reputation by spreading rumors about her.

Bai Xue smiled, acknowledging that these two women were cunning. They had stolen her spotlight, and now they were even defusing the situation.

She replied, “Regardless of who the center of attention is tonight, you are the most beautiful.”

Inside, Bai Xue felt disdain for Zhu Xiaotong. What good was looking pretty? In the end, she still had the upper hand.

Bai Xue decided not to continue the confrontation with these two women. She looked around and noticed Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan nearby. She put on a smile and approached them, saying, “Ling’er, Miss Wen, you’re here, that’s wonderful.”

Jiang Ling’er had a feeling that something was going to happen.

Bai Xue walked up to Jiang Ling’er and reached out to take her hand. However, Wen Nuan quickly grabbed Jiang Ling’er’s hand, leaving Bai Xue grasping at thin air.

She didn’t seem embarrassed and instead said loudly, “Everyone, let me introduce you to my good friend, Jiang Ling’er.”

Wen Nuan, feeling a bit bewildered, wondered what Bai Xue was trying to do.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ling’er gripped Wen Nuan’s hand, urging her not to react strongly.

Wen Nuan rolled her eyes, feeling frustrated. Why did Bai Xue want to embarrass Jiang Ling’er in front of so many people?

In a corner of the banquet, Li Yu observed everything with a stern expression. Bai Xue was pushing her luck.

Jiang Ling’er watched Bai Xue, who was clearly asking for trouble. She couldn’t help thinking why the stupid Bai Xue was digging her own grave.

Bai Xue smiled and continued, “Ling’er, didn’t I say it right?”

Before Jiang Ling’er could respond, Bai Xue added, “Ling’er, if you stay silent, it means you agree.”

Bai Xue thought that Jiang Ling’er was silent because she was about to explode from anger. As long as Jiang Ling’ er could not control her temper, she would seize this opportunity to tarnish her image in front of the guests.

In the corner, Gu Yinian said, “Bai Xue is quite something. It looks like your Ling’er is about to explode..”
