Su Yue was becoming more like sunshine .
Xuxu thought everything would become better and it definitely will .
Su Yue held Bai Jing’s hand and maneuvered through the ballroom looking for food instead of mingling with the guests .
Xuxu felt that she was falling short of stamina lately . Just briefly following behind them left her exhausted and she said, “Yueyue, I’m going back to my room to rest . You can continue to show Bai Jing around here . ”
Su Yue nodded . “Okay . ”
She had her eyes set on a row of pink colored cocktails . Xuxu noticed this and warned her with a stern voice . “Those are alcohol and you’re not allowed to drink . ”
Su Yue replied with an ‘oh’ and immediately moved away .
It relieved Xuxu, and she left .
As Bai Jing watched Xuxu leave, she said to Su Yue with envy, “Su Yue, I really envy you . You have so many people who dote on you . ”
Su Yue pursed her lips . “Actually, it also feels surreal to me . ”
Before she left Country Y and met her Third sister-in-law, she had never imagined that she would one day become a little princess that was doted upon by so many people .
Until now, she still had the feeling that everything wasn’t real at times . She was afraid that she would be like Cinderella, where her pumpkin would suddenly vanish .
“Thank you for regarding me as your friend,” said Bai Jing with an earnest tone of voice as she held Su Yue’s hand .
“I also want to thank you for treating me as your friend . You’re the first person to regard me as your good friend . ” Su Yue said, “In the past, no one was willing to play with me . ”
Bai Jing didn’t believe her . “You are pretty and your family is rich . How come no one wanted to play with you?”
She watched Su Yue with the look of envy still written on her face .
“Don’t talk about this anymore . Let’s have something to eat . ” Su Yue didn’t want to share her past experience in Country Y with other people and smiled to divert the topic . “Next time, I’ll frequently bring nice food to school for you . ”
Bai Jing was touched by her offer . She said, “Su Yue, you’re so nice but I’ve nothing to offer you . ”
She bowed her head, feeling inferior and looking at the skirt, pretty leather shoes and the bracelet that she was wearing—all of them belonged to Su Yue .
“What are you talking about?” Su Yue knitted her eyebrows . “We’re good friends . ”
Then she reached out to hold Bai Jing’s hand and smirked . “I heard that the hooligan sister is playing mahjong . I’ll bring you over to have a look in a while . ”
The two sisters maneuvered through the crowd, holding hands .
Many people nodded and greeted Su Yue, but she took a quick glance and ignored them .
She still wasn’t comfortable socializing with people or rather, she didn’t know how to communicate with them .
“Sissy Lu, drink up . ”
Everyone was in high spirits from the mahjong game, and they drank glass after glass of alcohol . By now, Young Master Lu’s face resembled a cooked prawn .
Zhou Shuang didn’t look better either . Both her eyes had turned bloodshot .
However, Jiang Zhuoheng and Ming Ansheng were still calm and unperturbed . There was a hint of a smile at the corners of their mouth .
So, getting them to be mahjong players was actually intentionally looking for trouble .
Xuxu sat behind Zhou Shuang and seeing her swaying left and right instead of sitting still, Jiang Zhuoheng got worried . “Xuxu, change a seat and sit behind Ming Ansheng . ”
“Hey you, what—what’s wrong with sitting behind me?” Zhou Shuang stuttered in her words .
After that, she picked a tile and was about to hurl it at Jiang Zhuoheng .
Jiang Zhuoheng seemed to have anticipated what Zhou Shuang would do, so he stretched out his agile hand to catch it .
Xuxu also felt that she should move away from this alcoholic . Hence, she grabbed a chair and pushed it to behind Ming Ansheng .
