Chapter 1042: Jealousy

Walking up to Yun Xi, Liang Xinyi shoved the invitation she had brought into her hand, proudly raising her head and looking at her with a look of disdain.

“My mother is getting married. Your mother is invited to come to the ceremony to see how glamorous my mother is now. She will soon be the wife of the fourth son of the Su family, and she will enjoy all the glory and wealth that entails. You guys will just be ordinary people in our eyes.”

Liang Xinyi scoffed at Yun Xi. Her words could not hide her current good mood and feelings of superiority.

It seemed that she felt like she had finally won against Yun Xi, and therefore she now could brag to her and even trample her under her feet.

“Since I’m just an ordinary person, it must have been hard for you to have come to deliver the invitation all the way here. With your mother being so desperate to show off and humiliate my mother, how can you be sure that she will definitely go?”

Liang Xinyi smiled with a triumphant look on her face. She had a sneer at the corner of her mouth that seemed to mock Yun Xi for not knowing her mother as well as she did.

“The Su family have invited all the people in power and the heads of the three n.o.ble families and the four wealthiest families to this wedding banquet. Your mother is trying to catch a rich husband for Yun Ziling. Do you really think she would pa.s.s up such a good opportunity? Besides, your mother was able to do such a shameless thing, s.n.a.t.c.hing a man from my mother, more than 20 years ago. How much better can she be now?”

Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and flipped open the invitations in her hand, each of which had the name of the person invited inscribed on them.

Usually, couples are invited to attend together, but these invitations had Liang Xiuqin and Yun Ziling’s names written on them, so it seemed as if Chen Lixue had no intention of inviting Yun Yuanfeng to attend this occasion.

The sole reason for inviting Liang Xiuqin was to take this chance to humiliate her.

However, if Yun Yuanfeng had been invited, perhaps with Liang Xiuqin’s crazy temperament, she would have really created havoc at the wedding banquet.

After all, the fact that Yun Yuanfeng had slept with Chen Lixue had not yet been forgotten by Liang Xiuqin.

To Liang Xiuqin, there was no such thing as the notion of the greater good. Once her brain decided to be stupid, she wouldn’t mind causing a scene that would humiliate the entire family.

This is something that Chen Lixue isn’t able to foresee, but it does not mean that Liang Xinyi doesn’t understand Liang Xiuqin’s potential to make trouble.

In order for the wedding to proceed according to plan, in order to enter the Su family, Liang Xinyi was not going to risk her own future to engage in a fight with Liang Xiuqin’s stupidity.

Closing the invitations, Yun Xi ignored her humiliating remarks about Liang Xiuqin and asked with a nonchalant smile, “You really don’t plan to invite me, do you, Cousin?”

“Exactly because you called me Cousin, I am not stupid enough to invite you. We are already part of the Su family now, and everywhere we go we represent the ident.i.ty of the Su family. If you called me this at the wedding banquet, everyone would know that my mother’s ex-husband’s niece is here. Wouldn’t that be like slapping the faces of the Su family in front of everyone? My mother has already divorced your uncle. Stop trying to build connections. Also, from now on, don’t say you know us when you go out. We don’t have poor relatives like you.”

Yun Xi smiled playfully, but there was an eerie coldness in her eyes.

“Heh, heh, if Uncle heard you say that he would be very saddened. Liang Xinyi, behave with a conscience. Those without a conscience will sooner or later suffer the wrath of G.o.d. Just because you have this att.i.tude, I will not allow you to get the t.i.tle of the top socialite.”

As soon as she heard this, Liang Xinyi immediately laughed and looked at Yun Xi with great disdain.

“You are a worthless girl who is not even qualified to attend the socialite ball. What right do you have to say this to me? You’re not even afraid of ridicule when you say it. I’ve been given an invitation to the socialite ball, and you, a person who has nothing, is here arrogantly blabbing nonsense to me. It is simply ridiculous!”

“Is that so?” Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and laughed lightly, her cool smile blooming on her stoic face. Her sinister aura inexplicably gave Liang Xinyi a feeling of chills running down her back.

No, it must be an illusion! It must be!

Yun Xi, this rotten brat, so what if she had connections with the Chen and Jiang families?

Liang Xinyi has already investigated the situation. Both the Chen and Jiang families have a daughter eligible to partic.i.p.ate, and, even if there were a spot, it’s not her turn.

Yun Xi is just jealous that she has the opportunity to attend the banquet.

She’s just jealous of her!
