Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Lin Mengchen
Based on a certain guess in his heart, Yun Lan was extremely enthusiastic on the way to the mansion with Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao, "I haven’t heard of Mr. Xu’s name before. When did Mr. Xu come to Luocheng?"
"It’s been a while." Xu Ke responded indifferently, showing no fear or excitement because the other person was from the Yun Family, as if everything was as it should be. It would be unusual if the other party didn’t act like this.
Standing next to Xu Ke, Lin Mengyao was somewhat worried about Xu Ke’s attitude towards Yun Lan, but it turned out her worries were completely unnecessary. The other party was not offended by Xu Ke’s aloof attitude at all and instead became even more enthusiastic towards Xu Ke, leaving Lin Mengyao quite puzzled.
Xu Ke noticed Lin Mengyao’s slightly puzzled expression, subtly curved his lips, and gently rubbed Lin Mengyao’s hand. "I don’t know when Mr. Xu and Miss Xu met; I have never heard Miss Xu mention Mr. Xu’s name before," Yun Lan asked with a smile.
"You can ask her about that. We want to walk alone." Xu Ke was not interested in answering Yun Lan’s question. He slowed his pace, looked at Yun Lan with eyes that were calm and emotionless, making it clear he wanted Yun Lan to leave them alone.
Yun Lan’s smile stiffened as he looked at Xu Ke’s eyes, and his hand at his side slowly clenched into a fist.
Born with a silver spoon, he had always been flattered by others. When had anyone been so disdainful of him? If not for considering Xu Ke’s identity, he would have had him thrown out for such an attitude long ago, but now he could only bear it. Yun Lan exhaled lightly without leaving a trace and resumed his previous gentleness when he spoke again, "Well, I’ll leave first."
After saying this, Yun Lan nodded to Xu Ke as a sign, took a step, and quickly walked away, his retreating figure carrying a sharp aggressiveness.
"How can you speak to him like that? The Yun Family is a top-notch family in Luocheng. If you piss him off, can we afford the consequences? The Lin Family has worked so hard to accumulate its fortune, and it could be easily crushed by the Yun Family because of your few words. How will I explain this to my grandfather?" Lin Mengyao said with some dissatisfaction.
God knows how scared she was when Xu Ke was speaking to Yun Lan. Not only did Xu Ke seem indifferent to Yun Lan, but he even said such things to him. Fortunately, Yun Lan didn’t take it personally; otherwise, how could she face the Lin Family?
Xu Ke was dumbfounded by Lin Mengyao’s annoyed expression. Indeed, the Yun Family was formidable in Luocheng, and dealing with a small family like the Lin Family was effortless. But compared to the Xu Family in Shangjing, they were insignificant.
With the Xu Family’s power, few people in the entire Huaxia could catch his eye, and the Yun Family wasn’t even qualified for that. That’s why he didn’t pay much attention to them, but he forgot that Lin Mengyao wasn’t aware of this. He had this confidence, but she didn’t, so it wasn’t surprising that she was upset.
"Don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to the Lin Family, and besides, he wasn’t even angry, he won’t do anything to the Lin Family."
"This time we’re lucky, but what about next time? Our Lin Family is just a small fry in this kind of setting, and if you don’t change your attitude, it will bring big trouble to us," Lin Mengyao said, frowning.
"I’m sorry, I promise I won’t do it again, don’t be angry, frowning will give you wrinkles. Let’s go in," Xu Ke glanced around, seeing no one else, then showed a pleading look to Xu Ke, making Lin Mengyao unable to maintain her previous sternness, "Remember what you just said to me, or when we get home, we’re not done."
When Lin Mengyao spoke, she glared at Xu Ke, seemingly threatened, but the playful look in her eyes made the glare harmless, sparking Xu Ke’s interest.
After walking a bit further, the Yun Family Mansion gates were close at hand. Lin Mengyao took a deep breath, "Don’t be nervous, relax, I’ve got this." While looking at Lin Mengyao’s tense expression, Xu Ke couldn’t help but smile and also felt a pang of heartache. He shook their entwined fingers and led her into the Yun Family’s party.
Upon entering the Yun Family Mansion, one would be astonished by the interior decoration. Compared to the Jin Family’s mansion, which used a lot of gold to highlight its opulence, giving a sense of grandeur, the Yun Family cleverly used black and white tones, creating an imposing atmosphere of combined sharpness and softness.
This was Lin Mengyao’s first time at the Yun Family Mansion. Xu Ke could see the hidden envy in her eyes. Seeing her expression, Xu Ke felt a stir in his heart and whispered in her ear, "If you like it, we can buy one too."
"What are you talking about? A place like this can’t be bought just with money. My grandmother spent half her life envying and striving for it but never got to live here. What would we, juniors, use to buy this?" Lin Mengyao said with some regret.
"That’s not something you need to worry about; you just need to tell me if you want it or not."
Xu Ke’s sure and confident tone caught Lin Mengyao’s attention, and a strange feeling flashed through her heart. Just as she was about to ask something, a voice so familiar it couldn’t be more familiar interrupted her, shattering her sudden question.
"Sister, is that you? How did you get in here?" Lin Mengchen couldn’t believe she saw Lin Mengyao at the Yun Family Mansion. Didn’t she take Lin Mengyao’s invitation? Where did she get an invitation to get in, wearing such an expensive haute couture dress?
She thought she was mistaken, but upon approaching, it was really Lin Mengyao. Why did she come, stealing her thunder, dressing so beautifully even though she was already married, who was she trying to attract?
Lin Mengchen’s eyes bore poisoned daggers as she lifted her skirt and walked towards Lin Mengyao step by step.
"I came in the same way you did." Lin Mengyao turned around with a tense expression, looking at Lin Mengchen.
