Chapter 770 - 763: Incorrigible Self-Destructive Nature (Part 2)
Some people are inherently self-destructive, and no matter what good cards are given to them, they’ll play them badly.
Leng Yichen had already noticed the abnormal situation on Bai Yiran’s side. His expression turned cold, worried that Bai Yiran might be bullied, and he wanted to come over. Bai Yiran lightly shook her head at him, signaling him not to get involved in the women’s matters.
Leng Yichen’s footsteps halted halfway until he saw the person entering through the door. Only then did he smile and turn around to continue discussing business.
Qi Hui didn’t notice any of this and continued to press Bai Yiran, "What’s wrong? Why don’t you answer my question? Are you feeling guilty?"
Bai Yiran didn’t speak, gazing at Qi Hui with a smile of contempt on her face.
"Why should my daughter-in-law answer your questions? What are you, anyway?" A woman’s voice came through, and the smile on Bai Yiran’s face became even more pronounced.
Qi Hui was shocked, looking incredulously at the woman who was approaching her, "Why are you here?"
"I’m the wife of Leng Liewei, the stepmother of Leng Yichen and Bai Yiran. Do I not have the right to be here?" Luna wore a low-cut, backless black evening gown, her hair elegantly styled, her face adorned with exquisite makeup, appearing regal and exceptionally beautiful.
Luna’s arrival stirred up a commotion. Leng Liewei, standing afar, saw the radiant Luna and couldn’t help but feel a flutter inside. He hadn’t seen his legal wife in a long time. Seeing her now filled him with mixed emotions.
"Xiao Jin, this is my father-in-law’s current wife, my stepmother Luna." Bai Yiran affectionately linked arms with Luna, the two standing together like sisters, equally dazzling.
Some people here knew Luna, some didn’t. Bai Yiran took the opportunity of introducing Luna to Xiao Jin to openly declare her identity.
"Oh dear, Luna, I was wondering why you didn’t come today!" Mrs. Liu hurried over to warmly greet Luna, "You’re late, you need to be punished with a drink."
Luna chuckled, "I was already on my way when Yiran suddenly sent someone to deliver this dress to me, insisting I wear it to come. I had no choice but to redo my look, which is why I’m late."
Mrs. Liu’s eyes flickered between Luna and Bai Yiran. She remembered that at Leng Yanxi’s full moon banquet, the relationship between this young mother-in-law duo wasn’t very good. Why were they suddenly so harmonious now?
Luna looked at Qi Hui with blatant mockery in her eyes, "Are you trying to disgrace yourself here? Without considering what you are, how dare you come here and act wild toward our Leng family’s daughter-in-law?"
"You—" Qi Hui glared, wanting to speak but was interrupted by Luna again.
"Bai Yiran is a treasure of our Leng Family; who dares to disrespect her? The injuries on her body were caused when she ran away in the middle of the night, and the police can testify to this. If you continue to slander Yiran’s reputation, you won’t need anyone else; Leng Yichen will be the first not to let you off! It seems you’ve gained something superficially and lost your senses, without even considering what your status is?"
Qi Hui was both angry and fearful from Luna’s words. Angry that Luna was using her status to flaunt in her face, fearful that she now realized her slandering of Bai Yiran might provoke Leng Yichen, which would make her days even more difficult in the Leng Family.
