Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 498 Deliberately Picking Faults (Part 2)

Jiang Xue followed behind Grandma Shangguan, got acquainted with a few elders, and then was led by Ouyang Yi towards the group of young people.

As the president of Ou Group and a wealthy bachelor, Ouyang Yi naturally attracted everyone’s attention. When those attending the party saw Jiang Xue walking beside him, many felt a twinge of jealousy and secretly inquired about her identity.

Unfortunately though, Jiang Xue was neither part of the circle nor had she attended such a gathering before, so almost no one recognized her.

Of course, except for one person, Ming Lan.

Though Ming Lan lived in the Hailong Hotel, she still came down from her room early. She was there to wait for Jiang Xue, waiting for her arrival, waiting for her to make a fool of herself today, waiting for her to lose all credibility.

Just yesterday, after learning that the Ou Group’s party was being held at the Hailong Hotel, she changed her plans. She thought it took too long to have Ouyang Yi seduce Jiang Xue. And since Gong Hai intended to leave, she couldn’t wait any longer, so she planned to strike quickly.

So, last night she had a quick discussion with Lu Ling, planning to take advantage of Jiang Xue attending the party for the first time to give her a harsh lesson.

Plans were arranged, but Ming Lan worried that Jiang Xue might not come. So, she came down early to wait, and her heart settled when she saw Jiang Xue.

As long as Jiang Xue was here, everything would be easy. Ming Lan thought triumphantly before quietly leaving the lobby to make arrangements.

At this moment, Jiang Xue, following Shangguan Wenbin, sat down on a sofa for resting, completely unaware of how Ming Lan planned to trap her.

Even though she knew Ming Lan wouldn’t miss this opportunity, she had no idea how exactly the plan would be executed.

Because of this uncertainty, she dared not accept the drinks offered by the waiters, or even the drinks personally handed to her by Ouyang Yi.

However, her behavior appeared pretentious to others, immediately prompting someone dissatisfied to speak out, accusing her, "Who do you think you are, not even giving President Ouyang face?"

Jiang Xue coldly glanced at the person, ignoring them. But unexpectedly, her indifference only fueled their arrogance.

"Why aren’t you talking? Weren’t you quite tough just now, even not giving President Ouyang face?"

"Exactly, you were so tough just now. But now you’ve turned into a mute. Are you afraid of us?"

"Who says so."

"Could she really be a mute?"

A few people chimed in, looking at Jiang Xue disdainfully, as if she were truly mute. One woman even reached out to push her.

Originally, Jiang Xue didn’t plan to pay them any mind, but since the other party dared to get physical, she couldn’t ignore it. Otherwise, these people would truly believe she was afraid of them.

Thus, she looked at them coldly and said in a frosty voice, "Does it matter to you whom I acknowledge?"

"Oh, so you’re not mute."

"So you can talk."

"Great, since you can talk, let’s have a chat."

"That’s right, you say it doesn’t concern us. But let us tell you, President Ouyang is our idol; not giving face to our idol is not giving face to us."

"Do you know who we are? You can go and ask around, see what happens to people who don’t give us face."

"No time!"

"Oh, so arrogant!"

"Sisters, since that’s the case, let’s show her what we’re capable of."
