The surrounding people couldn’t help but sigh at her words.
Indeed, it was extravagant beyond reason.
Spending 700 million on such a piece of blood jade.
“The young madam of the Leng family truly is reckless.”
“Who wouldn’t want the chance to be so reckless? What’s the matter, Miss Yu? Are you envious?” Luo Xi looked at her with a smile.
“Isn’t that ruby from your husband?” She pointed at the ruby on Yu Yanqing’s chest. “Spending so much money must hurt a bit, right?”
Yu Yanqing’s expression twisted.
The people who had initially wanted to flaunt their new jewelry quickly fell silent.
Ji Yun’s eyes flashed.
She had originally thought Luo Xi was just a simple girl, but now it seemed she had underestimated her.
Faced with Yu Yanqing’s deliberate words, Luo Xi not only remained unfazed but also managed to counterattack easily, making Yu Yanqing’s attempt to show off backfire.
Yet, her tone was so gentle that no one could blame her.
“Alright, everyone, aren’t you tired after talking for so long? Let’s eat something,” Ji Yun said.
These words stopped the two from continuing and also eased the tension between them.
Yu Yanqing snorted coldly and said nothing more.
The surrounding people dared not speak up either.
Such gatherings didn’t have much novelty. They were merely about introductions, various comparisons, and then ending with a meal.
“Let’s take a group photo to remember this moment.”
After finishing their meal, at someone’s request, Ji Yun led everyone to tour the magnificent building and took a few photos along the way.
This lavish place was comparable to a six-star hotel, capable of accommodating hundreds of people.
Inside, there were bars, karaoke rooms, mahjong lounges, gaming tables, a swimming pool, hot springs, and a gym—everything one would expect from a luxurious castle.
However, those present were seasoned individuals. While some were somewhat amazed, they didn’t find it overly extravagant.
After touring all the floors, nearly an hour had passed.
The women in high heels began to feel pain, but they didn’t want to voice their discomfort and maintained faint smiles.
Finally, as they reached the ground floor, some people began to take their leave.
Ji Yun politely tried to keep them, but not many stayed.
Seeing that most were leaving, Jiang Yanyan, feeling somewhat uninterested, discreetly poked Luo Xi. “Xixi, when are you leaving?”
“Are you leaving?”
Actually, Luo Xi had also been itching to leave when people started to leave.
“Yes, I haven’t finished my homework yet, and the midterms are just a few days away.”
Jiang Yanyan had only come here out of consideration for her brother. After all, her parents wanted her to focus on her studies during this busy time. Plus, Jiang Yanyan was very serious about her studies, so with the exams approaching, she felt she had to prioritize them. When she saw people leaving, she didn’t want to stay any longer.
Luo Xi hadn’t expected Jiang Yanyan to think about studying at a time like this, and she felt ashamed of herself. She nodded and said, “Then I’ll leave too.”
Jiang Yanyan nodded in agreement.
But Leng Me’er seemed a bit reluctant to leave, especially hearing about the hot springs.
Luo Xi and Jiang Yanyan both stepped forward to say their goodbyes.
Ji Yun naturally tried to persuade them to stay, but since Jiang Yanyan had mentioned her studies, she couldn’t press further. Instead, she turned her gaze to Luo Xi and asked a question.
