Love You Till the End-Chapter 969 - 968: Hey, Babe
Perhaps sensing the slightly off aura of those around her, Su Jiuyi quickly turned her face aside, laughed heartlessly, and raised a hand to her temple, standing upright to salute: "At your service, BOSS."
After Shi Aoju left, she felt extremely bored, glancing around the guests. Most of the female guests were wearing gowns with long skirts like hers, although some were wearing sexy, hot outfits that even made Su Jiuyi a bit envious.
She wondered how many of these people had once mocked her, and how many stood on the same side as Zhao Shuya. And she wondered just what kind of masks those two old guys would wear.
She stood next to the table, eating while enjoying the wonderful music.
"Have you heard that Xiao Chen’s father plans to engage him to the eldest daughter of the Su Family?" Not far off, a group of masked socialites gathered, glasses of wine in hand, discussing.
Su Jiuyi was caught off guard and choked slightly, quickly grabbing the red wine glass beside her to take a couple of sips and calm herself, then pricked up her ears to listen to their conversation.
Though she knew eavesdropping on other’s gossip was a bad habit, given gossip is everyone’s nature, men and women alike, and since they were speaking about her, she had every reason to listen.
"I’ve heard, but what does the eldest daughter of the Su Family look like? Something like that Su Manning, I suppose."
"Su Manning is a total bumpkin; her sister can’t be any better."
"Obviously, Su Manning inherited her mother’s vulgar, materialistic nature. Though she married Song Zhike oppa, they’ll definitely separate eventually. I heard my house’s Song Zhike oppa doesn’t have any feelings for her at all, he just followed his parents’ wishes. Such a filial son."
Song Zhike oppa... Su Jiuyi recalled Song Zhike’s various cunning expressions, a wolf hidden beneath the disguise of gentleness.
"But her sister by the same father but different mother didn’t inherit the stepmother’s genes."
"Even then, she’s still not a match for Xiao Chen. I’ve always said Xiao Chen is destined for greatness; his mind is sharp, and he has his own views on business, not to mention he’s so handsome."
Handsome enough to be a murderer. Su Jiuyi curled her lips and took another sip of red wine.
Wait.
She looked down at the wine glass in her hand, suddenly realizing.
She remembered making a vow not to drink so easily again, and was surprised by how quickly she broke it. She sullenly put down her glass, shrugged helplessly.
Xiao Chen should be here today too, which is even scarier. He wouldn’t dare commit murder in front of Shi Aoju, would he?
"Hey girl, what are you thinking about?" a familiar voice sounded from behind her.
Su Jiuyi turned back with a smile: "Thinking about you, of course."
Qi Jingren was wearing a short, thigh-length pink dress, a golden mask, and ten-centimeter high heels, looking every bit the sexy bombshell, which made it hard to believe she was involved in a murder case yesterday, and was the only witness on the scene.
Qi Jingren lowered her voice and said into Su Jiuyi’s ear, "I just saw Xiao Chen nearby."
Su Jiuyi frowned; he really did come. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"But he was flirting with some ladies, he’s a real Casanova, just like Qin Shaobai." She shook her head and sighed, "By the way, are you really getting engaged to him? I heard about you two, your father seems to have decided, and the Xiao Family doesn’t have any objections either."
