Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
An Nuo looked at Nan Qiao with an astonishingly bright gaze.
And this gaze originated from what Murong Chen had just said.
11 You’re actually the eldest daughter of the Murong family!”
”1 should have known!”
An Nuo let out a small exclamation. She did not expect that her good sister’s identity was actually many times more powerful than she had imagined.
Previously, when she cleared out the mall for her to shop, An Nuo felt that Nan Qiao’s status was definitely high. However, she did not expect her to be the daughter of Shengjing Group, which was ranked second biggest in the city.
Realizing this, An Nuo’s originally plain life suddenly became filled with countless colors.
“I thought you already knew when you saw my brother.”
Nan Qiao nodded helplessly. She stared at An Nuo, who was looking at rare animals, and calmly took a sip of fruit juice.
She had no choice. Murong Chen wouldn’t let her drink alcohol.
“At that time, 1 just thought that your brother was very handsome.11
An Nuo took the occasion into consideration and resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
Who would have thought that the President of Shengjing Group would drive his Little Sister to school every day?
Fortunately, An Nuo accepted it well and quickly transformed Nan Qiao’s image of a rich woman in her heart into a super rich woman.
On the other side, Murong Chen had just left Nan Qiao when he met Old Master Cheng.
“Although I’m the star of this birthday banquet, I still have to congratulate the Murong family for their daughter’s return.’1
Old Master Cheng’s body wasn’t strong, but he was in good spirits. Over the years, he had enjoyed tasting tea and playing with antiques. Moreover, now that he had introduced Cheng Jie as the heir, he looked much younger.
Murong Chen naturally respected this old man. He smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries with him.
The return of the eldest daughter of Shengjing Group some time ago caused a storm in the circle, causing many people to secretly pay attention to the Murong family.
Not to mention that the Old Master also wanted to find a daughter-in-law for Cheng Jie.
“Grandpa.”
The two of them were chatting casually when Cheng Jie returned to the Old Master’s side. His tone was respectful and his temperament was elegant, making people praise him.
Due to Murong Chen’s presence, the Old Master secretly glared at him as if he was saying that he was useless.
He had already pulled in the other party’s brother, so why did he still come back?
Cheng Jie naturally understood what the Old Master meant, but he could only smile bitterly and swallow it.
Ho couldn’t shamelessly stick to her after being rejected again and again, right?
Although that was the case, Chong Jie still felt a little displeased when he recalled how he had been rejected by Nan Qiao’s indifferent face and rude tone.
Ho looked down at the ground and a dark light flashed across his eyes.
However, when he looked up, his face returned to the clean look of a gentle and elegant scholar.
“Let’s not talk anymore.”
Old Master Cheng waved his hand and leaned on his walking stick as if he was a little tired.
“You young people can talk. I’ll go up and rest for a while.”
He did want to matchmake them as the Murong family only had one precious daughter. Now that she had just been found, Murong Chen definitely doted on her very much. Even if he wanted the two families to form a marriage alliance, it would have to depend on Cheng lie’s ability.
Coupled with the fact that there was a banquet later, the Old Master simply went up to get ready, leaving Cheng Jie and Murong Chen alone.
They were clearly about the same age, and Cheng Jie was also the most outstanding among his peers. However, when he stood in front of Murong Chen, it was as if he was forcefully suppressed, and his aura disappeared for no reason.
Facing the President of the Shengjing Group, Chong Jie felt great pressure when he opened his mouth. His perfect smile froze for a moment under the gaze of someone who seemed to be able to see through everything.
“Someone seems to be looking for you.”
Murong Chen glanced coldly at the woman not far behind Cheng Jie.
It was the woman who was standing beside his Little Sister just now.
The President, who had seen countless people, naturally saw through her feelings for Cheng Jie at a glance. At the same time, he felt that this person’s taste was really bad.
To be able to fancy someone like Cheng Jie…
Murong Chon snorted almost imperceptibly, as if mocking them.
No comment.
The banquet was about to begin. Nan Qiao and An Nuo had to part because they had their own seats. Among the group of people, Big Brother Murong Chen’s thin and tall figure was especially eye-catching.
Just as she was about to walk over to look for him, she was stopped by a familiar and annoying figure.
Why was it her again?
Luo Wanbai, who had changed into a pink gauze dress, raised her slender neck and stood arrogantly in front of Nan Qiao, blocking her way.
“A sparrow can forget about climbing up the social ladder.”
She didn’t say who it was, but they both understood what she meant.
However, she thought that Nan Qiao was going to look for Cheng Jie, so she blocked her halfway. Nan Qiao, on the other hand, thought that she was talking about her Big Brother.
Nan Qiao tilted her head slightly and looked at Murong Chen behind her through Luo Wanbai. He was wearing a gray suit and looked rational and ascetic. He was extremely handsome.
“Now that even trash has to be categorized, can’t you be more self-aware?”
Nan Qiao’s cold eyes were fixed on Luo Wanbai with an indescribable coldness, making Luo Wanbai feel an inexplicable sense of mockery and contempt.
Wasn’t this clearly insulting her?
Luo Wanbai immediately reacted. Her eyes seemed to be burning with anger as she looked at Nan Qiao.
She tightened her grip on her skirt and looked down at Nan Qiao with her height advantage. Her gaze was sharp and a little angry.
“You’re just a person who sneaked in to climb up the social ladder. Do you really think you’re a rich young lady?”
Looking at Nan Qiao’s gentle and beautiful face, Luo Wanbai felt as if there was a thorn in her heart.
Following her gaze, Luo Wanbai realized that Nan Qiao was actually looking at Murong Chen. This made her feel more disdainful of her.
“Do you think that by looking at President Murong like this, you can attract people’s attention and become the Young Miss of the Murong family?”
Luo Wanbai felt that she had seen many such people.
“If she’s not the eldest daughter of the Murong family, who is?”
Before Nan Qiao could say anything, Murong Chen’s cold voice sounded from behind Luo Wanbai. Then, the President’s cold face appeared in front of everyone.
“Big Brother!”
As soon as Nan Qiao heard her Big Brother’s voice, she walked past Luo Wanbai and threw herself into Murong Chen’s embrace.
Luo Wanbai frowned slightly. Being ignored made her unhappy. She turned around in the direction of the voice and realized that the President of Shengjing Group was standing behind her!
The words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat. When her gaze landed on Nan Qiao, who was in his arms, her face immediately turned pale.
Was she related to the President of Shengjing Group?
Luo Wanbai’s thoughts, which had stagnated for a moment, began to run again. Her expression was as ugly as if she had swallowed something foul. She did not expect that the person she thought had no background would be related to Murong Chen.
Anyone who provoked Murong Chen would end up in a bad state.
“Young Miss Luo, are you unhappy with our Murong Family?”
Murong Chon hugged his fragrant and soft Little Sister in his arms, but his gentle actions did not reduce his domineering aura at all. His cold tone made Luo Wanbai take a step back.
At this moment, Nan Qiao was buried in her Big Brother’s arms. Naturally, she could not sec Murong Chen’s cold face. She only felt that the surroundings had quietened down.
“1-1 didn’t mean that…”
Luo Wanbai felt her blood turn cold under the fierce gaze of others. Even her breathing seemed to carry a chill that made her heart palpitate.
Instinctively, her pleading gaze fell on Cheng Jie, who was following behind Murong Chen.
The warm smile on Cheng Jie’s face froze. He didn’t expect her to look at him. For a moment, he felt even more disgusted and disdainful other..
