Chapter 1401: Offense
The scene was a little quiet.
Li Rui watched the show with great interest and did not forget to remind his sister. “I keep feeling like my eyelids are jumping.”
Xia Yingluo said “Um”. If her elder brother’s eyelids jumped, it was definitely not a good thing. Last time, it was before her date with Wei Lingnan, and then Gu Jinxiu impersonated her as the queen. This time, could it be that Pei Yan was going to do something?
She watched as Pei Yan proudly played the game. She put the delicate jug back into the curvy water tray and aimed at the table where they were. Although the woman was stupid, the direction was accurate, and the small jug stopped firmly in front of the Li family’s seat, bobbing up and down in the water. “I choose Xia Yingluo,” Pei Yan said before everyone could react.
This was the purpose of her rushing to play the game. A while ago, Gu Jinxiu complained to her while crying that Xia Yingluo snatched her boyfriend shamelessly. Pei Yan knew that she had been disturbed by Xia Yingluo at her wedding scene, and Gu Jinxiu stirred up her anger with a few words against her enemy. Thus, she had patted her chest and ensured Gu Jinxiu that she would seek justice for her in this time’s midsummer flower appreciation festival.
At the other end of the drainage, Gu Jinxiu, who saw it all, smiled impassively.
Yes, she had lost the support of Wei Lingnan, and dare not provoke Xia Yingluo on the surface, but there was also the mindless gunman Pei Yan. She knew that Pei Yan hated Xia Yingluo deeply. She used to hate Xia Yingluo for seducing Zhao Yixuan, then she hated Xia Yingluo for pushing the rotten smelly Zhao Yixuan with a strange disease to her. She simply wanted to step on Xia Yingluo to vent her anger.
Sure enough, Pei Yan looked at Xia Yingluo provocatively. “Do you dare to take it?”
Everyone thought, why would Xia Yingluo be terrified of this? Furthermore, there was nothing she didn’t dare to do at all. What was Pei Yan even, she didn’t even need to be frightened of Pei Yan! Xia Yingluo laughed lightly. “Go ahead.”
Her light and casual appearance was a heavy contrast with Pei Yan’s aggressive look, and many people felt in their heart—this young lady of the Li Family was indeed the pearl of their palms, and her grandeur made people fall for her. What about Pei Yan? Her good leather bag was simply a waste on her. She had a good family background and grew so big only to be useless. No wonder the Pei family only used her to win over their subordinates, but they didn’t want to match a family for her. This was because someone like her simply wouldn’t have any wealth grandson take a fancy on her.
Pei Yan was agitated by Xia Yingluo’s attitude, so she asked the question, looking cold. “Let’s start with the truth. My truth is especially simple. Xia Yingluo, are you cheap or slutty?”
As soon as this question came out, everyone in the room buzzed and exploded.
No matter how menacing they were in private and how they didn’t see eye to eye, they still had to maintain a harmonious appearance on the surface. It was a rare thing to be so humiliating and unscrupulous like Pei Yan in public. This was simply asking to tear her face.
“This Pei Yan is too uneducated,” a lady said to the people around her in disgust.
But some people said, “What kind of education does she need? The Pei family has always been at odds with the Li family. The relationship between the two is not likely to become close at all, and the Li family cannot easily bring down the Pei family. They can’t possibly fight due to a few nasty words between the ladies?”

“Let’s see how Xia Yingluo reacts. She’s unlucky to have met Pei Yan.”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Xia Yingluo. Some were here to watch the good show, some were gloating over her misfortune, and some were even worried. Under the various kinds of eyes, Xia Yingluo’s voice was clear. “I don’t understand what Ms. Pei means. But I’ve heard of one thing before—whatever kind of person you are will be what people look like in your eyes. So I want to ask you, Ms. Pei, do you think you are cheap and slutty before you asked other people such a question?”
This question checkmated her beautifully, and many people laughed.
Someone who didn’t see eye to eye with the Pei family already shouted, “That’s right, Ms. Pei. So that’s how you are like in your own eyes.”
Pei Yan was so upset that her chest undulated and she was about to explode. She glared resentfully at Xia Yingluo. “Don’t change the topic, I was asking you! Now is your turn to answer the truth, so tell me!”
“I refuse to answer this question,” Xia Yingluo said. “Give me a dare.”
“Yingluo!” Li Rui was so angry he lectured her aloud. “What dare? You want to bother with such stupid things?”
Xia Yingluo smiled slightly. “The one losing face is the Pei family, not me, so why should I be afraid? I really want to see what kind of dare Ms. Pei will give me. Compared to the truth, will it be as… interesting?”
She said it was interesting, and the faces of several Pei family members turned ugly because she was right. The more vulgar Pei Yan was the more shameful it was for Pei Yan herself and the entire Pei family. It didn’t have a single thing to do with Xia Yingluo. Pei Chengyou also couldn’t sit still and glared at his sister. “Shut up!”
“Brother!” Pei Yan felt wronged. She felt like her brother didn’t dare to make trouble for himself in front of so many people, so she stubbornly resisted and exploded with all the grievances she had kept suppressed. “Other people are bullying me, and even you are too! Zhao Yixuan obviously contracted that strange disease when he was with that bitch, then he got engaged to me and harmed me! You don’t even let me cancel the marriage, and now you’re even protecting this bitch when I scold her! Whose brother are you even!”
Pei Chengyou was furious. “Shut up!”
Many of the guests around looked at this joke. They didn’t expect this Pei Yan to be able to make a scene no matter the occasion.
Pei Yan’s eyes were red, and she intended to toss around endlessly, but the way she scolded made the Li family very unhappy. Li Shaohui, who had been sitting at the side, suddenly said, “Mr. Yu.”
His voice was not loud, and even brought a hint of mildness and laziness, but it was clearly passed into everyone’s ears. And as if it was magical, the scene instantly calmed down. Mr. Yu, the host of the flower-viewing feast, looked at him. “Master Li, please speak.”
Everyone knew that this young master couldn’t be bothered. Just like his father then, he looked lazy and languid but was actually a decisive and fierce character. The host, Mr. Yu, gave him respect and was even a little nervous. After all, someone offended the Li Master’s younger sister at his flower viewing feast.
Li Shaohui was still sitting in his original position. He spoke in a casual tone as if he was gossiping with an old friend, but his words cut like knives. “Mr. Yu, I have always admired your character, so I brought my precious sister to this banquet. She is the treasure of our family. Usually, we can’t even bear to scold her, but now that she’s being scolded and offended by this no-name lowlife. I am very unhappy.”
In just a few words, people felt a sort of heavy pressure, and the cold sweat on Mr. Yu’s forehead flowed down incessantly.
