Chapter 191 - 191: Intensified Conflict
Zhang Xue’s sisters were also filled with righteous indignation. Zhang Xue being humiliated was undoubtedly a loss of their common face. They had to teach Gu Song a lesson.
“Tell me who your father is. Let me hear who he is. Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Gu Song also lost his temper and retorted without showing any weakness.
At the critical moment, Hai Tang hurriedly pulled Gu Song away. At the same time, she advised,” Forget it, forget it. Quarreling with people like them will only lower our own value.”
Hai Tang pulled Gu Song to the side of the violin performance. When she could no longer hear Zhang Xue and the others, she gestured for Gu Song to sit down.
After seeing Hai Tang and Gu Song tactfully leave, Zhang Xue raised her chin with an unhappy expression.
But her gaze still occasionally turned to where Hai Tang and Gu Song were sitting. With the bickering just now, she felt that Hai Tang and Gu Song were very unpleasant to the eye.
Especially when Hai Tang tried to persuade Gu Song, in Zhang Xue’s eyes, it felt like she was pretending to be aloof.
Seeing that Zhang Xue was unhappy, the girl beside her tried to persuade her.” Don’t be angry, Sister Xue. These country bumpkins don’t know the rules. It’s unlucky for us to meet them. Don’t worry about them.”
“I won’t take such a small fry to heart,” Zhang Xue snorted.
Although Zhang Xue pretended not to care on the surface, Yu Lu knew that she was actually very concerned about her face. Her eyes turned, thinking of another way to intensify the conflict between her and Hai Tang.
Hence, Yu Lu looked at Zhang Xue’s white short skirt and said with ulterior motives,” The person next to that country bumpkin is wearing a dress ot the same color as you. Is it a limited edition from C Family?” It seems to cost more than 600,000 yuan.”
As she spoke, Yu Lu pointed at Hai Tang, who was sitting in the distance, and motioned for Zhang Xue to take a look.
‘ How can a piece of trash like her afford a dress that costs more than 600,000 yuan? It must be a fake.” Zhang Xue retorted subconsciously.
However, at this moment, the lights in the hall shone on Hai Tang. The special fabric of the dress reflected an extremely bright light. Even though Zhang Xue and the others were some distance away from her, they could still see the light. This texture was enough to prove that Hai Tang was wearing authentic goods.
“Oh my god, that dress of hers does look very expensive.” The girl next to him covered her mouth in surprise.
Zhang Xue suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She pretended to be calm and deduced,” They are such vain people. They must have rented the dress specially for this gala. It’s impossible for them to own it.”
“A rented dress? If it gets dirty, you’ll have to pay a lot of money, right?” Yu Lu said. In fact, she was deliberately guiding Zhang Xue’s thoughts.
Sure enough, Zhang Xue had an idea when she heard Yu Lu’s words. She immediately revealed a sinister smile and said,” You guys watch. I have a way to deal with her.”
As she spoke, Zhang Xue stood up and picked up a glass of red wine. She swayed and walked in the direction of Hai Tang.
At this moment, the host of the party began to adjust the microphone, indicating that the guests could go to the stage and take their seats.
Hai Tang and Gu Song also stood up when they heard the announcement, preparing to go over.
At this moment, Zhang Xue walked to Hai Tang and Gu Song’s side and deliberately pretended to be unsteady, bumping into Hai Tang.
The cup in her hand immediately splashed a few drops of wine on Hai Tang’s skirt, quickly forming a few wine-red dots on the soft white fabric.
“Hey, watch where you’re going,” Zhang Xue said lightly.
‘ Sister-in-law!” Gu Song pointed at Hai Tang’s dirtied dress and called out.”
Sister-in-law, your dress!”
Hai Tang watched Zhang Xue leave with a smile after getting what she wanted. She raised her eyebrows and called out to her,” You in front, wait.”
Zhang Xue stopped and tilted her head to look at Hai Tang.
Gu Song was already at odds with Zhang Xue. Now that he saw her causing trouble again, he was furious. He shouted,” Don’t you know what you’ve done?” Zhang Xue’s gaze shifted to Hai Tang’s dress and smiled meaningfully.
“You just want to apologize?” Gu Song was even more displeased. “What else do you want from me?” Zhang Xue replied arrogantly.
“You’ve dirtied my sister-in-law’s dress!”
Zhang Xue ignored her. She looked at the expressionless Hai Tang and said sarcastically,” It was an accident.. Why are you still holding on to me?”
