Husband Is Too Sweet! - Chapter 22

After getting such juicy information, Yun Feng left to figure out her new plans. While Yun Feng was scheming, Wu Ming Yue and Yu Yan’ s conversation was interrupted by a call.

Yu Yan: “Hello?”

Elder Li: “Ah Yan, it’s me. Don’t forget to come to my birthday banquet.”

Yu Yan: “Of course not. I’ll be there!”

It was good that grandfather Li had called. Yu Yan had been so busy these days that she had actually forgotten. Old master Li was one of the few people that sincerely cared for her, no matter what, she wanted to be there for him.

The banquet was held in two days. Exactly how was she supposed to find herself something appropriate to wear? Noticing her friend’s dilemma, Wu Ming Yue was happy to help. “Ah Yan, I’m going to that banquet too. We could go together. Why don’t I help you pick out something great?” Taking her friend’s offer, Yu Yan spent the rest of her day running from one store to another. Wu Ming Yue went crazy when it came to shopping. She would not accept anything less than perfect.

**********

Many people had already come. The Li mansion that’s normally quiet, was bustling with guests. Though this was a birthday banquet for the old master, no one would let go of such a good chance to greet new people and grow their connections. These kind of parties were the higher-ups mingled, were filled with business opportunities. Young women were dressed prettily in hopes of catching the eye of one of the bachelors at the parties. If they were lucky enough, they could use this chance to get to know someone from the Wu, Mu or Gu family.

In a corner, some women were eagerly discussing something. “Is that true?” “Yes, I heard it from her best friend!” “Could that woman’s word be trusted? Hasn’t she been all over the news these past days? She’s such a scheming woman, how could her words be true?” As the young ladies happily discussed, soon those rumours spread through the whole mansion. All the guest had heard about it in no time. Many of the young ladies got their hopes up. If the rummers were true, maybe they could get a chance? How many of them had been devastated when CEO Li married? Now that he had finally left her, the golden bachelor might fancy one of the guests.

While many of the women tried to get close to Li Yi Feng in hopes of catching his attention, two ladies arrived. The women were beautifully dressed and instantly caught the attention of all the men at the mansion. One of them had a noble and elegant aura. The sėxy, red dress was elegant at the same time as it showed off her figure. Her hair was done up, showing her beautiful neck and back. Her sharp eyes made it hard to look away when one laid their eyes upon her. Beside her was another beauty. Unlike the first lady, this one glowed with purity and innocence. She had donned a beautiful white dress that accentuated her figure. Though she looked pure her figure was excellent with curves at the right places. A slit went up to her lower tight, making it possible to glimpse her beautiful long legs as she walked. Her mesmerising eyes looked at her friend as they chatted while walking in.

While the arrival of the girls caught the attention of the men, the women were displeased. It did not go unnoticed that these two beauties had the attention of every single man at the party. This made them tense up, there were yet another two women that would be their opponents. They started asking around, to find out who these newcomers were.

Girl 1: “I think I’ve seen one of the ladies before. Hmm… where was it?”

Girl 2: “Ah, isn’t she the third young miss of the Wu family?”

Girl 1: “That’s right. It’s her.”

Girl 3: “Who’s the other one?”

While most of the ladies looked curiously at the newly arrived women, some had taken the opportunity to get close to the young miss from the Wu family. Becoming friends with a lady from such a prominent family would be good for them. But how could Wu Ming Yue not see the greed in their eyes? She took Yu Yan’s had as she ignored them and led her friend away from the annoying crowd.

Those women that had smugly jumped at the chance were embarrassed. The others that had been smart enough to wait snickered. There were always idiots like these women, who could not wait and would jump head-first without thinking.

The new appearance had also caught the eye of the four men in the corner. These four that had been aloof and ignored the ones that had approached, had finally seen some guest that caught their attention.

Gu Li Feng: “Sheng Tian, isn’t that your gay girlfriend?”

Mu Sheng Tian: “That’s right! Who’s the pretty lady with her? Hmm.. doesn’t she seem familiar? Maybe she’s Yan Yan’s new girlfriend? Ah, Yan Yan moves on fast.”

Gu Li Feng looked at his friend weirdly. What right did he have to talk about moving on too fast? Where there anyone that changed their lover faster than him? Did he not see Wu Ming Yi’s face turning black. Though Gu Li Feng noticed Wu Ming Yi’s blackening face, he was not aware of Li Yi Feng’s change. Yan Yan? When did Mu Sheng Tian become close enough with Yu Yan to call her that? Li Yi Feng glared at his friend.

Mu Sheng Tian felt a chill run down his back. He turned around. What was that? He felt killing intent locking onto him. Was it just his imagination? Just as he was about to open his mouth to continue what he was saying, he was interrupted by his friend.

Wu Ming Yi: “Shut up! don’t you know to do anything else but gossip?”

Mu Sheng Tian: “Ah, brother why are you getting angry at me. Even if they are just your cup of tea, you can’t do anything if you’re not their type.”

Gu Li Feng could not watch on as his friend was digging his grave. Of course, he had to help! His poor friend, doing all the digging alone. He should give him a hand. He smirked as he said: “Sheng Tian, they could be just friends you know.”

Mu Sheng Tian: “There’s no way! I’m good at observing people. Did you not see how the elegant lady threw herself at Yan Yan, grabbing onto her hand? Look she’s still holding her hand, not willing to let go.”

His friend really had a pit in his head. Weren’t all close girls like that. Did he think women behaved the same way as men? Gu Li Feng watched excitedly as Wu Ming Yi got angrier, ready to explode at any moment.

Wu Ming Yi: Mu. Sheng. Tian. You shut up for me! Another word about my little sister and I don’t care if you’re my friend! I’d definitely beat you up!

Mu Sheng Tian looked backed at the snickering Gu Li Feng. This b*****d. He knew! Instead of helping his brother out, he was making trouble for him. ‘Gu Li Feng you dare to calculate against me! Just you wait, I’ll get back at you!’ Noticing his friends unhappy look, Gu Li Feng ignored it. He was not afraid of young master Mu’s petty revenge. If it had been Wu Ming Yi or Li Yi Feng, it would have been a completely different matter.

Grandfather Li had finally noticed Yu Yan. Walking over, he happily greeted her. “Ah Yan, you’re finally here!”

Girl 4: “Ah Yan? That’s her?”

Girl 3: “What’s she doing here?”

Girl 5: “Maybe the rumours were false?”
