Chapter 27: The Official Opening

Luo Yutao had yet to reveal the news of Luo Youyou’s disappearance, so naturally, Shen Wenqi could not tell Lu Yiran about it. However, now that she heard Lu Yiran ask about it, Shen Wenqi’s heart twisted with jealousy. This man was actually still thinking about Luo Youyou! However, she kept a gentle smile on her face. “Youyou is still angry with my father. It’s been a long time since she came home.”

“It’s been a long time since she came home? Then where is she living? Didn’t Uncle Luo stop her credit cards?” Lu Yiran’s expression tensed up.

“Where else could she be living? She must be living with the man who drove the Maybach on that day. How could she let go of such a rich man?”

After Shen Wenqi had said that, she saw that Lu Yiran’s expression had indeed become quite ugly. Knowing that his hatred for Luo Youyou had increased made her smile even brighter.

Soon, the four of them entered the hotel.

At the moment, there were already quite a number of people in the hall. All of them were City A’s dignitaries who had brought along their families, so they all knew each other fairly well. So when Luo Yutao and the others entered, everyone could not help but whisper.

“Didn’t President Luo’s wife only just pass away? Who is the person beside him? It’s not Miss Luo either.”

“It’s probably his new wife. His first wife has only just died yet he has already found a new person. Tsk tsk…”

“It can’t be, right? Even if a big boss like the president found a new one, he could find a younger one. Now, he’s looking for a woman in her forties? The situation is probably not that simple.”

“Who knows? Look at Lu Yiran’s female partner. I’ve never seen her before. Is it really possible for just anyone to come to Qingfeng International’s banquet now? I seem to remember that Lu Yiran’s fiancée is President Luo’s daughter.”

“That’s right. Speaking of Miss Luo, why haven’t I seen her? Did they break up? But even if they broke up, Lu Yiran wouldn’t look for a woman who doesn’t even look as good as Miss Luo, right? What is he thinking?”

The discussions of those wealthy ladies entered the ears of Shen Jinhan and her daughter, which made them extremely angry. Originally, they had thought that by dressing up so nobly, it would definitely make them shine in the limelight. They had not expected to still be looked down upon by others!

Luo Yutao could also hear these discussions. However, he could not approach them directly to talk about it. After all, he also wanted to maintain his reputation! Just as he was feeling awkward, Li Group’s President Li Zhongqi and his wife, Lu Weitong, came over.

Spotting Li Zhongqi and Lu Weitong, Lu Yiran and the others quickly surrounded them.

Lu Yiran pulled Shen Wenqi along. “Aunt, Uncle, you’re here.”

Lu Weitong glanced at Shen Jinhan and her daughter. She knew about her nephew and Shen Wenqi’s affair, so she naturally knew about the current relationship between them. She did not care about other families’ matters. It was just that she was partial to her nephew. In addition, the Luo family was a pretty good wealthy family. The matter of marriage could still be pursued, so naturally, she would not allow Lu Yiran to lose face, “The men will be going to discuss business matters, so let us women go and chat. Ms. Shen and Miss Shen, let me introduce you to the others.”

With the addition of Lu Weitong, some of the wealthy ladies naturally did not dare to talk about Shen Jinhan and her daughter anymore.

In addition, Shen Jinhan and her daughter were very eloquent, so they quickly blended in.

When Luo Youyou entered the venue, she saw Shen Wenqi and her daughter mingling with some of the wealthy ladies. The corners of her mouth curled into a cold smile. She did not head to a crowded place. Instead, she found a remote corner and took out her phone to start mass messaging. As for the contents of the message, it was a flirtatious text message that Shen Wenqi had sent to Lu Yiran at that time. Of course, it also included a shocking video of the car incident.

As for these text messages, they had been sent to Luo Youyou by Lu Yiran. At that time, he had merely wanted to provoke Luo Youyou, but he had not expected that they would become Luo Youyou’s secret weapon now.

Luo Youyou knew almost all the wealthy ladies in the hall. Her social network was not something that Shen Wenqi could learn in one night. She believed that if she waited a little longer, it would definitely be very lively.

Shen Jinhan and her daughter were carefully flattering these wealthy ladies, lamenting that the life of a wealthy family was not as good as this. Suddenly, a few of the wealthy ladies looked at their phones and their expressions changed. They walked away in disgust, as if their eyes had just been stained with trash.

In less than two minutes, the people around Shen Wenqi and her daughter had all left.

At the same time, Lu Weitong also realized that something was wrong. “You guys find a place to sit for a while. I’ll go take a look.”

Seeing Lu Weitong leave, Shen Jinhan and her daughter could not sit still. They waited anxiously for Lu Weitong to return and tell them what had happened. However, Lu Weitong had never returned.

Lu Weitong had found a familiar lady to enquire about what had happened. However, the lady produced the messages and video with a disdainful look. In an instant, Lu Weitong’s face turned ashen.
