Chapter 169: You’re Not Joking, Right?

Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhu Xiaotong composed herself and managed a smile. She asked, “A few million? Are you serious?”

Wen Nuan, noticing that she had stirred up Zhu Xiaotong quite a bit, smiled and replied, “Why would I make such a joke?”

Zhu Xiaotong smiled awkwardly and turned to Jiang Ling’er, asking, “Junior Sister Jiang, what kind of jewelry was it that was so expensive?”

Bai Xue was such a wastrel!

Jiang Ling’er said, “It was indeed very valuable. It was an all-green jadeite. I was heartbroken at the time. If it hadn’t been shattered, it might be worth more than thirty million now. Just thinking about it is still quite distressing.”

She even wore a troubled expression as she spoke.

Zhu Xiaotong said, “What?! That expensive!”

Zhu Xiaotong appeared uncomfortable but was deeply displeased within.

Jiang Ling’er continued, “Exactly, think about it. If it were yours, an ornament worth millions was suddenly smashed for no reason. Can you not be upset or heartbroken?”

Zhu Xiaotong forced a smile, not knowing what to say.

But she couldn’t help thinking about that vile Bai Xue. Just because she was Li Yan’s girlfriend, she broke something worth thirty million so nonchalantly?

Also, Jiang Ling’er, that b*tch. Why did she have a multi-million-dollar piece of jewelry?

Zhu Xiaotong felt jealous just thinking about it. God was really unfair. These two bad batches were so lucky. One was born into a rich family, and the other found a rich boyfriend.

Zhu Xiaotong consoled herself in her heart and instinctively sized up Jiang Ling’er. This b*tch didn’t even bother with makeup and wore simple, elegant clothes. At first glance, she didn’t seem attractive, yet her inherent grace outshone many.

This further fueled Zhu Xiaotong’s jealousy. How come someone like Jiang Ling’er, who had so much dirt on her, exude such a compelling aura.

Wen Nuan proposed, “Ling’er, accompany me for a stroll. We’ve been standing here too long, and I’m getting bored.”

Wen Nuan wasn’t interested in watching Zhu Xiaotong’s attempts to grab attention.

Jiang Ling’er nodded and looked back at Qin Xiaoxiao and Zhu Xiaotong, saying, “Apologies, seniors. We’ll take our leave.”

Qin Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.

Once the two of them had left, Zhu Xiaotong appeared puzzled and asked, “Why did they leave?”

Qin Xiaoxiao playfully remarked, “Perhaps they were afraid of being overshadowed by your radiance.”

Zhu Xiaotong instantly felt elated but pretended to say, “You’re just teasing me, but I’m quite surprised that Jiang Ling’er showed up. Doesn’t she find it embarrassing with all that Li Yan has done for Bai Xue?”

Qin Xiaoxiao replied, “Jiang Ling’er isn’t a mistress, so there’s nothing to be embarrassed about.”

Regardless of Bai Xue’s current status, she was essentially a mistress.

Zhu Xiaotong sneered and then looked towards the stage, inquiring, “Qin Xiaoxiao, why is there a piano here? Could there be a performance?”

“Bai Xue’s going to perform,” Qin Xiaoxiao said.

“She’s playing?” Zhu Xiaotong asked.

Afterward, Zhu Xiaotong displayed a mocking smile. Bai Xue, a countryside girl, had the time to learn to play the piano?

“That’s right,” Qin Xiaoxiao said.

Bai Xue’s piano skills were quite ordinary, but what could she say? The girl exuded self-confidence!

Zhu Xiaotong smiled and said, “Qin Xiaoxiao, don’t be silly. How could a country-bumpkin like Bai Xue afford to learn to play the piano?”

“Xiaotong, don’t forget who Bai Xue’s boyfriend is. With money, she can learn anything she wants.”

Hearing this, Zhu Xiaotong’s temporarily suppressed jealousy surged once more.

Zhu Xiaotong said, “Bai Xue’s rumored relationship with Li Yan is probably just a flash in the pan, right? What can she learn?”

That’s right, those were just rumors.

Qin Xiaoxiao proposed, “Perhaps Bai Xue is exceptionally talented.”

Zhu Xiaotong was taken aback for a moment and then stated, “1 think she’s setting herself up for humiliation today.”

Qin Xiaoxiao pretended to warn her, saying, “Zhu Xiaotong, don’t say that out loud; there are so many people here.”

In reality, Qin Xiaoxiao hoped Zhu Xiaotong would say those words out loud.

Zhu Xiaotong nodded and said in a hushed tone, “I’m not afraid of Bai Xue hearing me, but I’d be at a significant loss if the bigwigs here got a negative impression of me.”

Qin Xiaoxiao sincerely said, “As long as you know. But, don’t underestimate Bai Xue. She can captivate Li Yan, so it shows she’s quite capable, right?”

At the mention of Li Yan, Zhu Xiaotong’s jealousy was difficult to control. She truly couldn’t understand how such an exceptional man had fallen for someone as foolish as Bai Xue.

Zhu Xiaotong glanced around and then remarked, “Qin Xiaoxiao, the arrangement and decorations for this birthday party seem quite cold, don’t you think?”
