Before Yun Ya arrived, she had already guessed that this party was set up just for her. It was a Hongn Banquet, a trap. Lady ng and ng Junci hated her to the bone but never found the right opportunity for revenge. The little troubles ng Junci caused before were nothing worth ntioning. With the extravagant scale of this event, it seed Lady ng had decided to take matters into her own hands.
Zhuang Xiyue and Yan Nanmo were both out of the country, Yan Song was also absent, and Yan Ke was still a child. This was a rare opportunity, after all. No matter how detailed the plan, nothing was more effective than setting a trap personally and luring the prey step by step.
But how could Lady ng be certain she would co?
Heh... It was simply a gamble on probabilities. When she arrived, Lady ng must’ve cursed her as a fool in her heart.
Knowing full well there are tigers in the mountain, yet heading towards them.
Not foolishness, but courage.
If it were Wu Song, he would kill the ferocious tiger and make a na for himself, but there is only one Wu Song.
As soon as Lady ng left, the crowd surged forward, surrounding ng Junci. Yun Ya and Yan Xing were pushed out to the edge of the crowd. Yan Xing, feeling indignant, wanted to curse but held it in.
The so-called party was just a gathering of old friends chatting. The girls here were all forrly friends of ng Junci, but the relationship was just average compared to close friends like Huo Chanyi and Ma Shuangshuang. After ng Junci’s incident, none ca to visit, proving they were just a bunch of sycophants.
"This is utterly boring. Shall we leave?" Yan Xing said in a bored tone.
Yun Ya glanced at the crowd fawning over ng Junci and said lightly, "Leaving as soon as we’ve arrived wouldn’t be appropriate, right?"
"I just feel uncomfortable here, an indescribable feeling of suffocation. Watching a group of people flatter, I’d rather go ho and watch a Korean drama. At least there, we have handso oppas blasting the screen... Also, I wonder how big sister and mom are doing in Country H. Is your friend Park Yunhee reliable?"
"Don’t worry. With Yunhee taking charge, big sister will be fine."
"You trust Park Yunhee that much?" Yan Xing’s eyes darted around as she leaned in closer to Yun Ya: "I want to ask you sothing."
Yun Ya raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Does Park Yunhee have a girlfriend?"
Yun Ya glanced at her with a smile: "Why do you ask?"
Yun Ya’s gaze, as if seeing through everything, made Yan Xing a bit uncomfortable. With a snort, she said, "Can’t I just be curious? Just tell if he does or not. You were classmates with him, you definitely know him well."
Yun Ya looked at the clear-eyed, innocent girl before her and a face of Park Yunhee flashed in her mind. Whether in looks or physique, Park Yunhee was like a male lead from a Korean drama. Young girls like Yan Xing, full of fantasies at her age, are most susceptible to n like him...
Yun Ya looked in the direction of ng Junci, smiling lightly: "Yunhee’s principle is to pass through fields without a leaf sticking to him. Almost all the A-list stars in Country H have been rumored with him, labeled as a goddess collector. Having encountered so many won, his standards naturally are high, and he is a determined non-marriage advocate. No woman can ever conquer such a playboy..."
Yan Xing slightly pouted: "I already knew all that...."
"But...."
"But what?"
Yun Ya glanced at her, not missing the expectation in the young girl’s eyes, suddenly feeling youth was indeed wonderful.
"A man like him, when he tires soday, only the purity of the beginning can touch his heart. The so-called attachnt will eventually fade, that is the truth."
Yan Xing heard this half-comprehendingly, then suddenly looked at Yun Ya: "I think he likes you. I an, which man wouldn’t? Spending every day together would breed feelings. Maybe his philandering is a cover for the pain of not being able to have you."
Yun Ya helplessly laughed: "What are you going on about?"
"Eh... You, such a dazzling beauty, how would you understand the thoughts of us ordinary folks?"
Thinking of Park Yunhee, Yan Xing’s heart raced. For a young girl who grew up watching Korean dramas and imrsed in fairy tales of domineering CEOs falling in love with her, Mai Zheng was an idol to worship from afar, a god not to be desecrated, but Park Yunhee was the prince charming of her girlish romantic fantasies...
At least he was the first to make her feel the stirrings of love, often imagining in her dreams at night. This sweet joy was sothing she never felt with Mai Zheng.
The re thought of Park Yunhee sent her blood pressure soaring, her face flushing red, her mind blanking...
"Miss Ji." ng Junci approached with a glass of red wine, her body mostly wrapped in a cloak, hiding her empty right arm, making her appear frail and thin, as if she might float away. In the dazzling lights, she strangely seed a bit eerie.
Yun Ya quickly brought herself back to reality, looking at ng Junci with a smile.
"What were you two talking about? Would you let listen too?" ng Junci said, shaking the glass of red wine, under which the light reflected, making her lips look red like blood.
"Oh, Sis Yun Ya and I were discussing when to go play in Country H. If cousin has ti, you could join us, the long journey wouldn’t be so lonely."
ng Junci standing before them talking and laughing was already quite brave, but to travel abroad with them? Did she have the courage for that?
Yan Xing’s words were ant to needle ng Junci. The last ti they t, they’d already torn faces. What courtesy was left to show her?
She detested how this woman once used her to go against Ji Yunya, not to ntion openly admiring her second brother while secretly coveting her eldest brother, utterly shaless.
Unrepentant, blaming all mistakes on others, however much Yan Xing once trusted her, she now abhorred her just as much.
ng Junci said with a light smile: "I’d love to go, but unfortunately, my health doesn’t allow it. I really envy you two, being able to go anywhere as you please."
You little brat, just you wait for ...
"Miss Ji, those earrings of yours are quite unique and beautiful." ng Junci leaned in slightly, suddenly swaying, spilling the wine onto Yun Ya’s dress. She quickly stepped back, "Miss Ji, I’m sorry... I didn’t an it."
Her attitude was full of sincerity.
Yun Ya took out a handkerchief, slowly wiping the wine from her chest. Her nude pink long dress was utterly ruined. The large wine stain on her chest was very obvious, sticky against her skin.
"No worries, I believe Miss ng didn’t do it intentionally."
Her deanor was gentle and composed, without the slightest hint of sha or anger, making ng Junci feel a gnawing discomfort just from Yun Ya’s calm and collected deanor.
ng Junci forced herself to calm down. Only one step from success, she had to hold on...
"Miss Ji, your dress is ruined. If you don’t mind, I can take you upstairs to change into another outfit, otherwise, the sticky wine will be quite uncomfortable...."
"Sis Yun Ya, should we leave? We can change once we’re ho." Yan Xing said, pulling Yun Ya’s arm, giving a wary glance at ng Junci. What was this woman up to? She was certain ng Junci had intentionally spilled the wine on Yun Ya.
In any case, she couldn’t let Sis Yun Ya go change with her.
"Miss Ji, how can you leave just like that? I haven’t even had a chance to make it up to you. Please, let compensate you a little...."
A cold gleam flashed quickly in ng Junci’s eyes. Ji Yunya, don’t think for a mont you can leave this villa alive today.
