Chapter 118 - Who Do You Think You Are?
Chapter 118: Who Do You Think You Are?
As soon as Liu Yufei entered the hall, she could easily see Pei Li, who was standing not too far away. Naturally, she also saw the eye-catching Miss Lin.
Based on a woman’s sixth sense, Liu Yufei could immediately see the unconcealed interest in Pei Li’s eyes.
A flame of jealousy immediately burst out from the bottom of her heart. This woman was really born to oppose her. Just now, she had mocked her outside. She thought that she had a deep background, but she did not expect that she was only the daughter of the Lin family.
The Lin family only relied on their Liu family to make a fortune. They actually dared to put on airs in front of her? They really did not know what to do.
She even brought her bodyguard? Hmph, not a single thing on her body was hers. How could she have the nerve to come out and bluff?
Liu Yufei glanced at the two of them. In the end, she still had a clear sense of priorities. Even if she wanted to go forward, she had to first curry favor with her ‘future mother-in-law’. Today was her birthday.
Moreover, she had learned of Shen Xiaoxiao’s news today. She had to seize the opportunity to rely on her future.
For a large family like theirs, they could have no love, but they had to obtain the consent of their elders and have a strong family background.
With these things, even if Pei Li lost interest in her in the future, she would be able to sit firmly in the position of the mistress of the Pei family.
Of course, although she had Ouyang Yu as a backup, Liu Yufei was not stupid. Ouyang Yu was only interested in her for a moment. No matter where she was, it was impossible for Pei Li or Ouyang Yu to get married now.
But now that she had their support, she would not give up so easily.
Liu Yufei was very sensible as she accompanied Liu Qianming and Gu Yuehua to the master’s house.
Ouyang Minyan, who had been secretly observing Liu Yufei, was very satisfied with Liu Yufei’s actions.
It was needless to say how outstanding her son was. Even the two juniors from the Ouyang family that came tonight were not half as outstanding as her own son.
Of course, Pei Li was standing not far away and chatting passionately with a daughter of some unknown family. She only treated it as a normal social interaction. However, since Liu Yufei wanted to be the daughter-in-law of the Pei family, she had to have this kind of bearing.
What did the upper class care about the most? Face. In the outside world, they had to give face to their own man. When they returned home, they could make a fuss however they wanted. On this point, Liu Yufei did a good job.
It seemed that this ‘stepdaughter’ was not that bad. It was not that she could not be considered. However, Pei Li still had a marriage contract with the legitimate eldest daughter of the Shen family. This matter was known by many people. This was not something that could be easily resolved.
“Auntie, I wish you a happy birthday. May you always be young, and you always be able to smile!” With proper words and a steady and gentle dress, this appearance of a lady from a wealthy family made Ouyang Minyan even more satisfied.
She immediately smiled and said, “Thank you, Yufei. Yuehua, you guys are late. Just now, Mrs. Zhang asked you guys about it. Meimei, bring your Sister Yufei to the side to play. There are many guests tonight. You have to greet them well.”
Ouyang Minyan was telling the truth. Indeed, the guests had arrived one after another. Liu Yufei also knew that this was not the time to talk. She immediately acted like an obedient and sensible girl and followed behind Pei Meimei.
Pei Meimei had already seen them when Liu Yufei entered. She had kept the disc well the last time. Her big brother had said that now was definitely not the time to take it out, so she naturally could only endure Liu Yufei.
Anyway, it was absolutely impossible for this b*tch Liu Yufei to marry into their family. It was just that she did not know what Big Brother’s plan was. When the time came, it would depend on how Big Brother would handle it.
However, she had to find a suitable time to remind her mother. Otherwise, her mother would still think that this was a little flower that made people love her.
“Sister Meimei, this red dress of yours tonight is really beautiful. It’s custom-made, right? I’ve never seen it before.”
Who didn’t know how to flatter? However, if it was Liu Yufei who had said these words before going to America, perhaps Pei Meimei would have been extremely happy long ago. She would have immediately gotten along with her sister. However, right now, Pei Meimei seemed to be used to hearing such flattery. She didn’t even bother with her.
Pei Meimei also knew that she had a fiery temper. She was also afraid that if she really had to exchange a few more words with Liu Yufei, she wouldn’t be able to help but say something sarcastic to her. This Liu Yufei was very smart. If she were to discover anything, it wouldn’t be good.
Pei Meimei did not reply. Liu Yufei, who was following behind her, was so angry that her teeth were itchy. However, she could not do anything to her. She did not know why this wretched girl was angry for so long this time. She was really an ungrateful wretch.
“I still have guests to entertain. You can play with them by yourself.”
After leading her to a corner, Pei Meimei turned around and left, leaving Liu Yufei gnashing her teeth in anger.
However, it was good that she left. After she left, she could look for Pei Li. In the past, Pei Meimei always followed behind Pei Li. Other than in bed, she and Pei Li rarely had the chance to be alone together.
Now that she saw Pei Li and Lin Weiwei chatting passionately in the distance, Liu Yufei rolled her eyes and turned around to walk towards Lin Jiadong and his wife.
Following that, Lin Jiadong was forced to walk towards Lin Weiwei and Pei Li by Liu Yufei.
Lin Jiadong had no choice. This was the eldest daughter of the Liu family. On the surface, they were on the same side as the Liu family. They were the ones who had made a deal with Young Master Pei in private, but they still had to continue acting.
Lin Jiadong slowly approached Pei Li. At first, he was a little worried that he would ruin Pei Li’s plans, but when he saw Pei Li’s gaze, he knew that Pei Li did not have the slightest intention of blaming him. There seemed to be a sense of satisfaction in his gaze as he walked over.
And on this end, Shen Xiaoxiao heard Pei Li say, “Look. Your father, Mr. Lin, is here.”
Shen Xiaoxiao immediately understood what was going on. Naturally, she turned around and looked at Lin Jiadong, who was walking towards them.
“Weiwei, so you already know Mr. Pei? You young people make friends pretty quickly.”
“Mr. Pei, this is my eldest daughter, Lin Weiwei. She has been studying abroad and has just returned to China recently.”
“Mr. Lin, I was just chatting with your daughter. You love Miss Lin so much. The bodyguard you hired is doing their job well. You have a lot on your mind.”
How could Lin Jiadong not understand what Pei Li meant? He turned to Lin Weiwei and asked, “Didn’t I say that I don’t need any bodyguards? And I’ve paid the bill. Why is this gentleman here?”
“Is he fired? Oh, I’ve hired him again. I’m not used to it without him.”
This time, not only Pei Li, but Pei Li was also choked. This girl’s words were really merciless.
“You… Weiwei, don’t be willful. Look, where did the bodyguard come from? Aren’t you making a fool of yourself? Listen to your father. And this gentleman, please leave. You are not welcome here.”
But would 19 pay attention to Lin Jiadong? Of course not. He acted as if he did not hear anything and ignored Lin Jiadong. This angered Lin Jiadong. He turned to Shen Xiaoxiao and said, “Immediately tell him to get lost.”
Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at Lin Jiadong and then at Pei Li who was watching the show. She gave Lin Jiadong an evil smile and said, “Why should I listen to you? Who do you think you are?”
