Billionaire's First Doting Marriage-Chapter 2081 - 223: Xia Ye’s Sharp Tongue

The five people went to the banquet hall together.

Today’s birthday banquet was exceptionally lively.

Li Jianyue was a low-key person who had never hosted a birthday banquet before.

But this time, he had invited all his old friends.

Li Jianyue was part of the cultural circle, but even celebrities and politicians showed him some respect.

In the banquet hall, Xia Yangyang did see quite a few familiar faces.

But Lu Yinxing was not expecting to bump into Lin Yuanyuan.

The grievances between Lin Yuanyuan and Xia Yangyang trace back to over a decade ago.

Even back when she was an intern at Shengyuan.

At that time, Lin Yuanyuan had a crush on Gu Qichen, but she felt Xia Yangyang had snatched him from her halfway.

Moreover, a few years later, she ironically became Xia Yangyang’s boss.

However, after Lin Yuanyuan left the TV station, she joined her family’s media enterprise.

Their grudges had deepened over time.

Over the years, although there wasn’t much contact.

But occasionally, the media would expose scandals about Shengyuan or spread rumors about the relationship between Gu Qichen and Xia Yangyang to cause trouble.

Xia Yangyang naturally knew those matters were linked to Lin Yuanyuan.

Yet she had never taken them to heart.

Life is lived for oneself, and it’s truly unnecessary to bother with unworthy people.

During past business banquets, they would inevitably run into each other.

But Lin Yuanyuan never dared to offend her directly.

So the two acted as if they were strangers, not even exchanging greetings.

But Xia Yangyang didn’t expect Lin Yuanyuan to approach her voluntarily today.

And with a face full of smiles.

Xia Yangyang also noticed that Lin Yuanyuan was not alone today.

By her side was a poised young girl.

That girl should be her daughter.

In Xia Yangyang’s impression, it seemed to be Lin Yuanyuan’s first time publicly appearing with her daughter.

Actually, Lin Yuanyuan had a brief marriage when she was young, but it ended in divorce quickly.

After that, she never remarried, but she mingled with many men, and her reputation wasn’t good.

Many people also maintained a respectful distance from her.

However, the young girl next to Lin Yuanyuan had an outstanding demeanor.

Today, she wore a light green dress, like a lotus after the rain, graceful and upright.

Lin Yuanyuan took a glass of champagne from the champagne tower.

She walked directly over to them.

Lin Yuanyuan greeted Gu Qichen first, "Mr. Gu, long time no see."

Gu Qichen replied, "I don’t share the same views as Ms. Lin, naturally, we don’t meet often."

Gu Qichen was quite blunt with Lin Yuanyuan.

Lin Yuanyuan didn’t mind at all.

She smiled, "I’m afraid we’ll be running into each other quite often from now on."

Turning her face, Lin Yuanyuan said to Xia Yangyang, "Yangyang, I really envy you. Still as young and beautiful as ever, truly a greenhouse rose nurtured by men for a lifetime, even at this age, still as vibrant as a fresh bloom, unlike me, spending a lifetime fighting openly and covertly like a man, maneuvering through the smoke-free business battlefield, my gray hair growing by the day."

Everyone present could hear the sarcasm in Lin Yuanyuan’s words.

Even Lu Yinxing felt the woman before them was up to no good.

But what puzzled Lu Yinxing was that Lin Zhi was also present.

No one spoke.

Except for Xia Ye, who broke the silence.

Xia Ye said, "You seem to be way older than my mom, but Aunt, don’t feel inferior, not everyone can be like my mom, naturally beautiful, never aging."

Lin Yuanyuan’s face instantly changed color.

Aunt? 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Inferior? Huh?

Lu Yinxing couldn’t help but feel amused.

Actually, when it comes to being caustic at home, no one can outdo Xia Ye.
