Chapter 35: It Didn't Look Like It
Liu Shu and Jing Yuan's expressions were ugly, especially Jing Yuan. She had never been humiliated like this since she was young.
Zhu Sui knew Jing Yuan. From what his sister Zhu Ling said, she sounded like she wanted to drink her blood every time she mentioned Jing Yuan. However, it was not as impactful as seeing Jing Yuan.
Initially, he wondered if Zhu Ling was exaggerating. After all, they were family. Now, it seemed that Zhu Ling was telling the truth.
Which sister would do such a thing to slander her sister's innocence in front of so many people?
He looked at the two ladies, who had ugly expressions. It was rare for him to not want to be a gentleman to women. He snorted and said, "You haven't even eaten yet, and you're already drunk?"
Liu Shu felt awkward. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that she and Jing Yuan had just arrived. It was indeed a little far-fetched to say that she had drunk too much.
"This…" Yu Dong stared at Jing Yuan for a moment and said, "Is she really Sister-in-law's sister. Why doesn't she look like her? Sister-in-law is such a beauty, but she has such an ordinary sister?"
The entertainment industry was extremely chaotic. Yu Dong had seen everything, so how could he not see through Jing Yuan's acting?
Jing Yuan's face turned pale, but she caught one of the keywords—Sister-in-law?
He could only call Jing Yao that. Jing Yuan glanced at everyone's faces and finally fixed her eyes on Liang Xun.
She sneered. "Not bad, Jing Yao. You're quite capable. You found a backer so quickly. In that case, why did you pretend to be innocent at Boss Wang's place last time?"
Liang Xun frowned slightly. He had already investigated these things clearly. They were all set up by Zhang Li and Jing Yuan. If Jing Yao hadn't accidentally bumped into him back then, he didn't know what would have happened.
Jing Yao had always thought that she had a good temper, but now, she could not help but want to slap Jing Yuan again.
Liu Shu's forehead was covered in cold sweat. At this moment, she couldn't care less. She covered Jing Yuan's mouth and whispered in her ear, "Jing Yuan, stop talking. Do you know who the man standing beside her is?"
Jing Yuan looked at Liang Xun. He had outstanding looks and temperament, but she really could not remember who he was.
Liu Shu said, "That's Liang Xun, Liang Xun from the Liang Corporation."
Jing Yuan immediately stopped struggling, her face filled with disbelief. Liang Xun kept a low profile and did not accept any media interviews. Hence, the outside world did not know what he looked like, but in Bi City, those who were slightly well-to-do knew him.
Although his success was inseparable from the foundation passed down from his ancestors, Liang Xun's ability could not be underestimated. He took over the company at a young age, and in just a few years, the Liang Corporation became the number one company in Bi City.
How did Jing Yao know such a person?
Liang Xun didn't care how shocked she was. He said with a fake smile, "Are you, Yaoyao's sister, her twin? Yu Dong's words reminded me just now. Instead of shouting here, Miss Jing, you might as well go home and ask your father if you two are really twins."
Liang Xun did not speak for a long time, but he was actually thinking about something. He had investigated the Jing Family and had seen all the detailed information about everyone. Hence, he knew that Jing Yao's father had a girlfriend who was on the verge of marriage with him when he married her mother. He had even seen the photos. He did not think too much at that time until he heard Yu Dong's words just now.
Jing Yuan looked very similar to her father's first love.
Jing Yuan was still shocked that Liang Xun was involved with Jing Yao. She was so frightened that her breathing became chaotic when she suddenly heard Liang Xun's words.
She did not know what Liang Xun knew or how much he knew. Only she and her father knew about this. How did Liang Xun know about it?
Jing Yuan didn't have the courage to stay any longer. She glared at Jing Yao and left with Liu Shu.
Liu Shu wanted to cry. She wanted to stay and apologize to Liang Xun and the rest before explaining, but she was disrupted by Jing Yuan. If her parents found out about this when she returned home, they would definitely scold her.
After Jing Yuan left, Jing Yao heaved a sigh of relief. She really did not want to be entangled with Jing Yuan or anyone from the Jing Family.
