Chapter 280: Her Male Companion Is Actually...
Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong
Boss Cutie
The Director frowned. "Then why didn't anyone notify me?"
"It must have been sudden. I say we don't wait for her. The few of us can just go out and make our appearance," Su Lin said to the Director with a smile.
Her words made the other Young Misses nod repeatedly in agreement. "That's right, since Leng Ruoli isn't coming, the few of us can just go on stage. Don't let her delay our appearance."
"Exactly, I'm still wearing high heels and such a heavy dress. Let's hurry up and start!"
The other Young Misses were all getting irritated.
The Director's forehead was beaded with cold sweat. He really had absolutely no way to offend this group of Young Misses, especially since none of their backgrounds could be underestimated.
Especially since not appearing at the designated time truly did violate the Luo Fanter Banquet's rules and traditions.
"Since she isn't coming, then we'll just—" Just as the Director nodded and was about to comply with Su Lin's request, a clear voice suddenly rang out. "Who said I didn't come?"
Everyone turned to look back, and there stood a beautiful girl.
Her skin was fair and translucent, and she wore a cream-colored gown that was elegant and eye-catching. Her brown hair fluttered, making her complexion look especially good.
Her figure was especially nice, and she was lovely and moving. When her beautiful eyes fixed on something, it made people sigh inwardly—This must be a little fairy, otherwise how could she be so pretty?
Su Lin's breathing caught, and she stared at the girl who had appeared in astonishment. "You… how are you here?"
"Then where do you think I could be?" Leng Ruoli walked up hurriedly, completely with the bearing of a Queen.
Her aura completely suppressed Su Lin.
Su Lin was instantly slain by Leng Ruoli, and she cowered in a flash. "I… how would I know."
The Director said, "You're here. Just now Su Lin said you weren't feeling well."
Leng Ruoli then looked at Su Lin with a fake smile. "Is that so? This is the first time I've learned that my cousin cares about me so much. When I was feeling fine before, I never saw you asking after me."
That single sentence made all the Young Misses present understand—Su Lin was just being hypocritical. On such an important occasion, how could Leng Ruoli suddenly feel unwell?
Su Lin received disdainful looks from some of the girls present. She was completely furious, but could only endure it and not vent. Gritting her back teeth, she said to Leng Ruoli, "Since Cousin is fine, then that's great."
Leng Ruoli looked at Su Lin's frantic and exasperated appearance with satisfaction.
If Su Lin wanted to scheme against her, then she couldn't blame Leng Ruoli for being ruthless to her.
When they made their appearance together, Leng Ruoli stood completely in front of Su Lin. Su Lin wanted to greet the photographers, but ended up being completely blocked from view.
Su Lin was completely furious. It was supposed to be her moment to shine, but all the spotlight was stolen by Leng Ruoli.
Especially during the group photo, Su Lin secretly tried to grab the center position, but never expected Leng Ruoli to say to everyone, "The lighting here is too dim. Let's move a bit."
Leng Ruoli even deliberately pulled the Song family's Young Miss over, moving the Song family's Young Miss deeply. She held hands with Leng Ruoli, on the best of terms, while Su Lin was directly squeezed to the very outside by those Young Misses.
She was about to be pushed out of the frame.
Su Lin was completely furious.
The entire venue ignored her. She had never tasted such cold treatment before.
Now it was clearly a gathering of Young Misses, but Su Lin had gone from the center of attention to an invisible person.
In contrast, Leng Ruoli was surrounded by people.
On the left was the Song family's Young Miss, so happy she wanted to give Leng Ruoli a diamond necklace.
On the right was the Lu family's socialite, still trying to secure a collaboration with the Leng Corporation.
What bothered her most was the gasp of admiration that came from the crowd.
As if by fate, a slender figure walked toward Leng Ruoli.
Everyone's gaze fixed on the boy.
His black hair, styled with mousse, was wild and spirited, his temples distinct. He was handsome and elegant, with starry eyes and thin lips, completely with an arrogant and powerful bearing.
His black suit made him look too handsome.
How many young girls' hearts were conquered by him.
Yet he turned a blind eye.
The person who appeared was Jiang Muye.
He ignored the infatuated gazes of the pretty Young Misses around him and walked very firmly to Leng Ruoli's side.
"Excuse me, I'll be borrowing my girlfriend." Only then did Jiang Muye's lips carry some warmth as he spoke coolly to the Young Misses surrounding Leng Ruoli.
These Young Misses were flattered and overwhelmed. It was the first time Jiang Muye had spoken to them, and their little faces flushed red. "Okay, no problem."
Leng Ruoli was naturally happy to see Jiang Muye come. Her eyes were all on Jiang Muye, and when Jiang Muye reached out his hand, she placed her hand in his without a shred of hesitation.
Only then did Jiang Muye raise the corners of his lips, a rare occurrence.
That smile made how many girls' hearts flutter.
Jiang Muye led Leng Ruoli to the refreshments area and asked with his head lowered, "What do you want to eat?"
Just now, at the door of the VIP room, after learning that Leng Ruoli had been locked inside, he knew it was too late to find someone for the key. So he thought of the fact that he was a man with a System.
He had the most badass mind control technique.
Jiang Muye merely fixed his eyes on it, and the lock core inside bent completely.
Thus he smoothly rescued Leng Ruoli and sent her to the Luo Fanter Banquet's venue.
"I want to eat macarons." Leng Ruoli pointed excitedly at the pink macarons and smiled at Jiang Muye.
"Okay." Jiang Muye picked up a macaron and fed it to Leng Ruoli's mouth, cupping his other hand below, afraid that Leng Ruoli would drop crumbs and dirty her clothes.
Leng Ruoli ate shyly, exchanging glances with Jiang Muye, exceptionally sweet.
Which of the surrounding Young Misses wasn't envious? They sighed. "If I'm not mistaken, that should be Jiang Muye! I'm so jealous of Leng Ruoli, being able to find such a handsome boyfriend."
"Tell me about it. He's too handsome. When he smiles, I melt. If he could feed me something, I'd laugh out loud even in my dreams."
"When will those two break up? I usually don't envy Leng Ruoli's family fortune, but I envy her man!"
"Don't be silly. Even if they break up, it won't be your turn. He's very devoted and dotes on her especially!"
As these Young Misses chattered on enviously, Su Lin's heart was shattered.
They were clearly all people, but Leng Ruoli had reaped sweet love.
While she was a ten-thousand-year-old single dog!
Still single since birth!
Fuck, comparing yourself to others will kill you!
Su Lin pouted, very displeased, when suddenly a shadow fell over her.
"Miss Su Lin? I'm your dance partner today."
Su Lin looked up at the sound and was greatly surprised.
The man before her had a pair of affectionate eyes.
His features were very fine and handsome, and with a shallow smile at the corners of his lips, he could bewitch anyone.
