“Miss Ye, where are your manners?” Nangong Xuyao took a step forward and stood beside Ye Xiyuan. When he looked at Ye Leng’an, there was a sharp light in his eyes. “Today is Xiyuan’s birthday. As a guest, you’re late, but you think it’s Xiyuan’s fault. You’re indeed eloquent!”
At this moment, the strange feeling in his heart had already gone. After hearing such impolite words, he came to stand beside Ye Xiyuan. This was the girl he liked, so he naturally had to protect her.
On the other side, Li Deze’s eyes darkened when he saw Nangong Xuyao’s actions. As expected, he was a step behind.
“You…” Ye Leng’ an looked at Nangong Xuyao and felt that he looked familiar. However, she couldn’t remember where she had seen him before. She wanted to bash him, but she bridled the words on her lips. Instead, she asked, “Have we met before?
Ye Xiyuan was a little anxious about Ye Lengan’s question. She immediately held onto Nangong Xuyao’s arm and smiled. “Leng’an, you must have forgotten that we met once in the restaurant. But it was inconvenient at that time, so we didn’t go and say hello to you.”
She didn’t know what Ye Leng’an was trying to do. Was Ye Leng’an trying to seduce Nangong Xuyao? However, she would never allow such a thing to happen. She got her eye on Nangong Xuyao, and Ye Leng’an could never take him away.
“Oh, really?” Ye Leng’an didn’t mind. She was just asking casually. Then, she looked at Ye Xiyuan and said perfunctorily, “Happy birthday!”
“Ye Leng’an, you knew that today was Xiyuan’s birthday!” Qian Gumeng stepped forward and looked at Ye Leng’an with disdain. “You didn’t even wear an evening gown on such a day. You’re really a country bumpkin. Also, did you not even bring a gift for her?”
“So, you invited me to this party just to want me to give you a gift?” Ye Leng’an ignored Qian Gumeng and looked at Ye Xiyuan. “If that’s the case, you should have told me earlier!”
Ye Xiyuan cursed Qian Gumeng in her heart for always ruining everything.
Then, she quickly said, “It was a pleasure that you came. I don’t need any gifts.”
Qian Gumeng was too stupid to say that. Although she wanted to take Qian Meng for a hatchet man, she didn’t expect her to say such stupid words like this. Wasn’t Qian Gumeng implying that she was holding this dinner party to receive gifts? Then what would the others think of her?
Qian Gumeng didn’t realize her own problem at all. She continued to shout at Ye Leng’an, “Ye Leng’an, don’t twist my words. I was just talking about you.”
The smile on Ye Leng’an’s face disappeared, and her expression turned cold. She looked at Qian Gumeng and said mercilessly, “The host hasn’t even spoken yet, you’d better shut up.”
Hearing this, Qian Gumeng exploded with anger. She stepped forward and wanted to fight Ye Leng’an to the death, but she was stopped by someone.
Ye Xiyuan tried to hold Qian Gumeng who was about to lose her mind back and said, “Leng’an, please don’t talk nonsense. Gumeng is my good friend. She just wanted to help me. You don’t have to make personal remarks.”
Although she spoke righteously and sternly, she despised Qian Gumeng in her heart. The reason why she held Qian Gumeng back wasn’t because of their sisterhood, but because she didn’t want Qian Gumeng to ruin her birthday party.
After hearing this, Qian Gumeng glanced at Ye Xiyuan, looking touched.
“Since you’re here, have some fun.” Ye Li stepped forward. When he looked at Ye Leng’an, there was no smile on his face. “Don’t cause trouble here.”
If it weren’t for the fact that there were so many guests around, he would really ask someone to chase Ye Leng’an out.
“If Mr. Ye doesn’t welcome me, then I can leave now.” Ye Leng’an said indifferently, “After all, someone personally came to invite me over. Since I did come, I’ve already shown her enough respect!’
With that, Ye Leng’an turned around and prepared to leave.
“Leng’an, since you’re here, you should at least have the cake before you leave!” Fearing that Ye Leng’an would leave just like that, Ye Xiyuan hurriedly said, “If you leave at this time, it’ll be our fault for not looking after you well..”
