Upon hearing this, Yu Yanqing looked quite surprised. “Since you’re already married, why not hold a wedding? Doesn’t the Leng family want to give you a proper status?”
She scrutinized Luo Xi from head to toe, finding her simple attire and demeanor strange.
As soon as she spoke, the surrounding chatter abruptly stopped, and curious eyes turned towards the two.
Luo Xi glanced at the woman. “So why do you think I’m here today?”
Yu Yanqing’s eyes flickered before she smiled and said, “Don’t misunderstand, I’m just curious, nothing more.”
“Sometimes being too curious isn’t necessarily a good thing,” Luo Xi said lightly.
Her tone held no fluctuations, but the others sensed a hint of danger in her words.
Noticing that Yu Yanqing was about to say more, Ji Yun quickly intervened, smiling, “You’re just too curious about everything. Luo Xi is also here for the first time, don’t be too enthusiastic.”
Hearing this, Yu Yanqing refrained from speaking further.
Seeing this scene, Leng Me’er explained to Luo Xi, “She’s the wife of Yang Feng, who is in the same faction as Zhou Yu and Cousin Leng Yuan.” This clarification made things clear for Luo Xi.
Since she was in Leng Yuan’s faction, she was her enemy.
Clearly, the other party thought the same way.
“Sister Yanqing, I heard you just returned from a trip to W country. Did you bring back anything good to share with us?” a woman sitting next to Yu Yanqing asked eagerly.
Yu Yanqing smiled and replied, “Of course! I found quite a few treasures on this trip and brought back a lot for my sisters. Sister Yun, I even got a super nice piece of jade and had a set of jewelry made for you.” With that, she raised her hand, and immediately someone brought over a delicate box. Yu Yanqing took it and placed it in front of Ji Yun.
Everyone craned their necks to see.
Ji Yun smiled helplessly. “You really shouldn’t spend so much. I don’t lack these things.”
Although she said that, her face couldn’t hide her joy.
“Oh, don’t be so polite with me. Just open it and see if you like it,” Yu Yanqing said casually.
Ji Yun smiled and opened the box, revealing a high-quality bracelet, a set of earrings, and a ring.
The surrounding people exclaimed in envy, “Sister Yanqing is so generous! This must be worth a lot of money, the quality is so beautiful!”
Yu Yanqing laughed and said, “Oh, it’s nothing much, just a few tens of million.”
The people around sighed in admiration.
Even though they were all from wealthy families, casually giving away jewelry worth tens of millions wasn’t something anyone would do lightly.
Such expensive items were usually something they kept for themselves. Yu Yanqing’s generosity was truly remarkable.
“Sister Yanqing, is that ruby you’re wearing from the trip as well? It’s so beautiful! I wonder where I can buy rubies like this? Can you recommend one?”
The people around her admired her generosity, and their attention was quickly drawn to the dazzling ruby around her neck.
“Oh, this? I actually got this from a collector by chance. I had a set of jewelry made from it, and it’s all gone now. If you had asked earlier, I could have saved some for you,” Yu Yanqing said, fondly stroking the ruby hanging from her chest, clearly happy.
Everyone felt regretful at her words.
Scanning the envious yet disappointed gazes of those around her, Yu Yanqing finally noticed that only Luo Xi was quietly focused on enjoying her cake, seemingly unmoved.
