Chapter 243 - 243 242 Its So Unfair
?Chapter 243: Chapter 242 It’s So Unfair Chapter 243: Chapter 242 It’s So Unfair Huo Ye had finally shaken off his older brother and was thinking about going to find Lu Xun and Luo Ning when he was stopped by a woman.
He looked at the woman blocking his way and frowned, asking, “What’s the matter?”
Feng Yuxiao flipped her wavy long hair and smiled, “Young Master Huo, hello, I’m Feng Yuhao’s sister, Feng Yuxiao.”
“I just learned from him that he accidentally hurt you a while ago.”
She then revealed an apologetic and reserved smile, continuing, “I didn’t discipline my brother well, so I specifically came over to apologize to you, I’m truly sorry.”
She knew what kind of person her brother liked, quite spoiled with an aggressive demeanor.
Since Huo Ye didn’t like that type, he probably preferred someone gentle and quietly elegant, with modesty.
She believed that was how she presented herself right now.
But what she didn’t know was that in Huo Ye’s view, she was just putting on an act and being flirtatious in front of him.
He found such behavior from a woman really annoying.
With a cold face, he said, “Since you know your guidance was flawed, then take him back and teach him properly before letting him out again.”
“If your brother is like that, you as his sister are probably not much better. Mind yourself.”
After finishing, he had no intention of treating her with kid gloves and immediately turned to look for Lu Xun and the others.
This woman was truly a waste of his time.
It had to be said, in this regard, Huo Ye’s sharp tongue was on par with Ji Zhinan’s.
Feng Yuxiao: “…”
What kind of man was this? He actually spoke such harsh words to a beauty like her.
Feng Yuxiao’s face turned pale with anger; not one of these men had any gentlemanly demeanor.
Couldn’t he hear that she was being modest? It infuriated her.
But she couldn’t and didn’t dare to do anything to Huo Ye, so she could only stiffly maintain her smile and walk back.
After sitting down, Huo Ye started to complain.
“Just now that woman actually came to pretend to be innocent in front of me. One look and you can tell she’s no good—I feel like I’ve been offended.”
His ability to discern such women was particularly strong now, all thanks to training from that crazy woman in the past.
What kind of woman hadn’t she pretended to be?
Changing her style frequently in an attempt to attract him, which he found so pretentious.
That woman’s acting skills just now weren’t even as good as the crazy woman’s, daring to come show off in front of him.
What apology for her brother? She clearly wanted to take the opportunity to seduce him. Does she think I’m a fool?
Luo Ning laughed, “You attract quite a few rotten peach blossoms in a day.”
She had always known that Feng Yuxiao was a very pragmatic woman, but she didn’t expect her to be so shameless.
Wasn’t she just after her friend’s rich second-generation boyfriend? And now she’s turned her sights on trying to seduce a young master?
Truly worthy of someone who could be friends with Bo Xiangxiang in the future, they both have the nature to be communal property.
Huo Ye gave a bitter smile, “Who knows what kind of constitution I have, attracting nothing but rotten peach blossoms.”
“Luo Ning, do you think this rotten peach blossom I’ve attracted this time will cause any trouble?”
After the last incident, whenever he encountered such rotten peach blossoms, he always felt like a startled bird, terrified it would turn into another love curse.
Luo Ning laughed again, “It’s fine; it’s just a simple rotten peach blossom. As long as you don’t engage with it, there won’t be any problems.”
“That’s a relief!” Huo Ye couldn’t help but sigh with relief.
The two were chatting when a male voice sounded from behind.
“Little Ningning, you’re here too.”
Luo Ning turned to see Ji Jiayi standing there with a smile on his face.
She nodded indifferently, “President Ji is here too!”
Ji Jiayi and Lu Xun belonged to the same circle, so naturally, they knew other people.
Conscientiously, he walked over and sat down in the only vacant seat.
He looked at Luo Ning elegantly and laughed, “No wonder when I invited you as my female companion, you said you were busy. Turns out you were also invited.”
Luo Ning laughed, “I’m quite interested in the auction, so I asked Huo Ye to help me get an invitation.”
Ji Jiayi chuckled, “If you had said something earlier, getting an invitation would have been simple. I could have got one for you too.”
Huo Ye: “…” When did he fail to notice this sly guy becoming so shamelessly thick-skinned?
He said bluntly, “It’s my brother’s auction, and he wouldn’t let me help, yet you go to him for help. Luo Ning isn’t someone with nothing better to do.”
At a glance, it was clear this guy harbored no good intentions toward Luo Ning. Why else would he be so eager to please?
After speaking, he gave Lu Xun a covert look that implied, this guy seems to be trying to steal your thunder.
Lu Xun gave him a reassuring look, signaling him not to worry.
He understood Luo Ning well; she wouldn’t be interested in a man like Ji Jiayi.
There was no need to worry about someone who wasn’t even a love rival.
Ji Jiayi glanced at Huo Ye, “Since when did you start loving to bounce around so much?”
And since when had this guy become so close to Luo Ning?
Huo Ye snorted, “I’m not like you, offering favors for no reason; that’s either conspiring or thieving.”
“Luo Ning, you should be wary of him. He’s a smiling tiger – not a good person.”
“In our circle, he’s notorious as a womanizing playboy; he changes women more frequently than his clothes.”
Now that he considered Luo Ning a good friend, he didn’t want her to be deceived by Ji Jiayi’s faux gentleman facade.
Ji Jiayi: “…” Suddenly, he regretted sitting down. Huo Ye was toxic.
“What nonsense are you talking about? I change my clothes daily; surely you don’t think I switch women that often? No one would believe that.”
He added, “Little Ningning and I are good friends. Don’t try to sully my name or drive a wedge between our friendship. Besides, I am a respectable person.”
Huo Ye rolled his eyes in exasperation, “Quit your act; we all know who you are!”
Lu Xun smiled, “It’s true, in this circle, who doesn’t know about Young Master Ji’s romantic escapades? You don’t need to be modest.”
Ji Jiayi: “…” He knew Lu Xun wasn’t a good bird, always ready to put the knife in.
Luo Ning found their banter quite amusing.
On the other side, Bo Xiangxiang and Feng Yuxiao looked on as Luo Ning laughed and joked with the men, feeling unsettled.
They couldn’t comprehend how Luo Ning had penetrated Ji Jiayi and the others’ circle.
They struggled to gain entry; it was simply unfair.
After the party ended, Huo Rui asked everyone to go downstairs to the auction.
Luo Ning and the others didn’t rush out with the crowd but walked slowly instead, since Huo Rui had already reserved front row seats for them.
Just as they reached the doorway, they encountered Gou Jinchuan and his group.
They were waiting for Feng Yuxiao, who was delayed while looking for Feng Yuhao.
They hadn’t expected to run into Luo Ning here.
Gou Zhenmei quickly seized the opportunity to greet Luo Ning, “You must be Ningning; did you come to recognize your grandfather?”
She had learned about Luo Ning, who could rebuke people on social media, indicating she didn’t have the best temper.
Jiang Xinxin showed no kindness to the old man or them, and likely Luo Ning was the same.
Her reason for initiating the conversation was actually to provoke Luo Ning into being rude and ignoring the elderly man.
Not only would this embarrass the old man who cherished his reputation, leading him to take his anger out on that despicable woman, Jiang Xinxin.
It would also show these young masters that Luo Ning was someone who had no respect for her grandfather, and wasn’t worth their association.
