Chapter 554: Second Round of Humiliation

At this point, everyone could guess what was going on. Yu Shu, Qin Fang, and He Yidu grew up together. If they bumped into each other, they were bound to have a meal together.

But in the eyes of others, through Yu Shu’s subtle manipulation, everyone thought that Lu Chengzhou had brought her along.

That was not the case at all.

It was possible that Lu Chengzhou had never considered her his fiancee at all.

When Yu Shu thought about this clearly, her eyelashes trembled and she opened her mouth. “You thought that I was here for Qin Fang?”

She did not believe that he had no idea that she was here for him. Did he say that because of Gu Mang?

Until now, Qin Fang still had not reacted.

This situation was indeed his mistake. Yu Shu often came over and Brother Cheng never said anything about it. He thought that Brother Cheng had gone along with his family’s arrangement and began interacting and occasionally caring for Yu Shu.

Qin Fang was rather short-tempered with women. Yet he suddenly started caring about Yu Shu. Surely, everyone thought that Brother Cheng had ordered for him to behave so.

That was why Yu Shu talked about him going to pick her up, sending her off, and taking care of her.

Qin Fang rubbed his nose and spoke honestly. “Whenever Ms. Yu contacted me to let me know that she arrived, I would pick her up if I was free because we are all friends. Afterwards we would have a simple meal together. How could this become such a huge misunderstanding?”

He Yidu raised his eyebrow and laughed. Then, he looked at the others. “Why didn’t any of you think that Ms. Yu was Qin Fang’s fiancée? Qin Fang is the one picking her up.”

Qin Fang slanted his eyes.

Yu Shu glared at He Yidu with fury in her eyes. An overwhelming sense of embarrassment encapsulated her. Everyone looked at Lu Chengzhou and Gu Mang, then at Yu Shu as if they now understood clearly.

All this time, Yu Shu’s love had been one-sided love. Even the ‘appointed fiancée’ was nothing. It was really embarrassing for everyone who had shown their indignity just now and claimed that Gu Mang was interfering into others’ relationships.

Contemptuous looks fell on Yu Shu like a knife.

Yue Qing and the others’ faces flushed. They never ever thought the situation could go so wrong.

Lu Chengzhou slanted his eyes and looked at Gu Mang slightly. His eyes were casual as usual, but a little deep. His voice was very low and he explained, “I really don’t know anything about this matter.”

Gu Mang did not answer him.

Lu Chengzhou squeezed her hand. The look in his eyes showed that he had very strong survival instincts.

Yu Mufeng laughed. His voice was calm. “Since we are at this, it’s a good time for a reminder to never believe in rumors and to never spread them.”

Ji Heng couldn’t help but laugh as well.

Those on Yu Shu’s side suddenly turned redder and they couldn’t lift their heads.

Yu Mufeng looked at the celebrities and his eyes were rather cold. He lifted his chin. “Ladies, all of you were really quick to speak up just now. Don’t you owe them an apology?”

They all kept their heads low and no one made a single sound.

Lu Chengzhou looked at them and the corner of his lips curled up. With a harsh look, he said, “They’ve all gone mute.”

Yue Qing and the others trembled in fear.

Lu Chengzhou was always rather indifferent towards everything. His eyes sank and the wild look from the corner of his eyes defined his whole face. The ladies could feel goosebumps on their back and they all broke into cold sweat.

“Sorry, Ms. Gu. We didn’t get our facts right.”

All of them apologized one after another.

Old Master Qin never expected that his birthday banquet would start off in such a way. He cleared his throat and looked at Gu Mang. “Since it’s all a misunderstanding, Miss Gu, please proceed to your seat.”

Gu Mang nodded politely. Lu Chengzhou took Gu Mang to the banquet table. After he took two steps, he suddenly stopped, and looked at Yue Qing and the others. They were nervously tense and their eyes were full of panic. They clenched their fists tightly.

Lu Chengzhou’s expression was dull. His eyes swept across the crowd and he said, “I only have one fiancée. She is Gu Mang. Remember that.”

He spoke softly and slowly. It was so intimidating it made everyone’s hair stand on end.

He had one hand in his pocket and a slender figure. The cold glow in his eyes was really intimidating. The freezing aura around him made it hard for others to breathe.

Yu Shu gritted her teeth and said in a tone that implied she was broken, “Chengzhou, Grandma Lu will not agree. She said that she hoped I would marry into the Lu family.”

Everyone suddenly recalled that no matter how courageous Yu Shu was, it was impossible for her to assume that she was the Lu family’s appointed granddaughter-in-law unless the Lu family said that it was so.

Arranged marriages between aristocratic families was already an unspoken rule. The marriage of the younger generations were matters that affected the entire family. No matter how much Lu Chengzhou liked Gu Mang, the head of the Lu family decision was final.

The group around Yue Qing raised their eyebrows and straightened their backs. They looked at Gu Mang and smirked contemptuously.

In terms of birth, Gu Mang cannot measure up to Yu Shu even in her next life. Would the Lu family accept someone with no background?

Such a thought had just appeared in their mind…

Suddenly a voice rang out from the entrance of the banquet hall.

“Ms. Yu, did Grandma really say such a thing?”

Everyone looked over and saw Old Madam Lu enter. Her hair was silver and she was wearing a light blue lady’s suit.
