Chapter 549: She Has Never Attended a Fancy Party Before

All eyes turned to Yu Shu.

Crossing her arms before her chest, the young missy of the Qin family sarcastically snapped, “Ms. Yu, I believe who we invite to attend our family’s banquet has nothing to do with you.”

The snide remark caused her expression to crack a little, but she swiftly a.s.sumed her usual, perfect composure and ignored everyone. Everyone around them silently looked at her and they found the mood to be somewhat strange and awkward.

Even He Yidu thought that Lu Chengzhou had allowed her to hang out with them because there was some relation, though the other man never once mentioned anything about her.

Besides, given the relations.h.i.+p between the Yu and the Lu families, everyone in the capital’s social circle thought that the two families had privately agreed to have Yu Shu as Lu Chengzhou’s fiancée and all that was lacking was just their engagement ceremony.

No one expected the appearance of Gu Mang, an especially c.o.c.ky upstart.

Yet now, the three were together. Just what was this? He Yidu started to worry on Qin Fang’s behalf. He started to doubt whether the banquet could end on a good note.

As people noticed the situation, the buzz in the banquet hall died down.

Yu Shu threw a glance at Gu Mang’s simple attire before turning to Lu Chengzhou with a laugh. “Chengzhou, why didn’t you prepare a gown for Ms. Gu before coming?”

Her words held the insinuation that his date was no one important because he did not even prepare a gown for her.

Ji Heng found it strange, too. His boss had refused his offer to prepare an evening gown for her. Buying her a gown was nothing to Lu Chengzhou. Thus, the reasons could only be that she refused to wear one and that he had been fine with that.

Then again, he could not imagine Gu Mang in a gown, for she always dressed in black and white.

Gu Mang was playing with the bill of her baseball cap when she heard the other woman’s question. Gu Mang’s razor-sharp gaze slowly landed on Yu Shu, who tensed up from the chill radiating from her gaze.

Then, everyone heard the young lady’s arrogant yet nonchalant voice, which carried a hint of laughter in it. “You’re quite the meddler.”

Yu Shu’s eyes turned frosty at once as she pursed her lips in embarra.s.sment. Her rival was basically calling her a nosy parker outright.

Her gaze remained fixed on Gu Mang as she flashed another smile at her. “That was just a kind reminder. You have never attended such a fancy party before, so you probably don’t know the dress code.”

Her group of cronies followed her when she made her way over earlier, which prompted the other guests to gather around too.

They could not hear the conversation between Old Master Qin and Gu Mang earlier, but now, the surrounding people heard what Yu Shu said loud and clear.

It prompted murmurs within the crowd.

“Oh, so this is her first time attending such a banquet. That explains her shabby clothes.”

“This is no place for any Tom, d.i.c.k, and Harry.”

“To think I actually thought that Young Master Lu valued her a lot since he didn’t let go of her hand. As it turns out, he couldn’t even be bothered to prepare a gown for her.”

The voices slowly became louder and bolder. As Yu Shu lifted her chin slightly, a mocking look flashed across her face. Dressed in an exquisite and expensive evening gown, she appeared elegant and n.o.ble in every way.

Aside from being the Yu family’s eldest daughter and a respectable socialite in the capital, she was also known as the world’s youngest, top pianist.

Even though Gu Mang was involved in some businesses, they were nothing to the rich and powerful. The capital’s social circle was not a place people would be accepted just because they had a bit of money.
