  Yu Shu had finished speaking. Before she could step away, she was blocked by a black lighter with relief carvings. The lighter was wedged between well-defined and pleasant-looking slightly curved fingers.

  Yu Shu stopped in her tracks suddenly. Subconsciously, she clenched her fists. Her heart was in her mouth. She turned around stiffly and looked up, only to meet Lu Chengzhou’s cold and brutal gaze.

  The man smiled. “You are pretty good. The future granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family?”


  Scared for her life, Yu Shu shuddered.

  “Are you playing word games with me?” Lu Chengzhou dragged his voice. His tone was light and slow, but he sounded very menacing.

  Yu Shu looked at him and shuddered from his chilly gaze, as if her entire body were attacked by his aura.

  She opened her mouth. “I……”


  Lu Chengzhou played with the lighter in his hands before he dropped his hand. He turned his body to the side slightly and said calmly, “Does the entire capital know that you are my fiancée?”


  Looking at Yu Shu’s ashen face, Yue Qing could not help but frown. “Young Master Lu, Yu Shu……”


  Lu Chengzhou glanced at Lu Yi.

  Lu Yi brought some people over immediately. Looking coldhearted, he looked at the group of socialites who had made nasty comments earlier. “Ladies, do you want to leave on your own or do you want me to show you the way out?”


  Hearing this, everyone panicked.

  Lu Yi waited for two to three seconds. Seeing that there was no response from them, he lifted his chin and said coldly, “Take them out.”


  They widened their eyes in horror. They had wanted to say something.

  “I suggest that all of you not cause a commotion at Old Master Qin’s birthday banquet.” Lu Yi interrupted them with a straight face. ”


  The socialites felt like their words were stuck in their throats. Under everyone’s watch, the socialites were chased out of the venue by a few guards.

  To the side, Granny Lu and a few other elderlies kept quiet. As for the others, they learned from this example and were terrified. He Yidu and Qin Fang narrowed their eyes and smiled. They were seeking trouble. Who could they blame?

  As Yu Shu watched the socialites being chased out, the blood in her body almost froze.

  Lu Chengzhou was still looking at Yu Shu with a smile on his face. He tapped on the side of the lighter. “If you explain everything to me clearly, I will let you walk out the door.”


  Breathing anxiously, Yu Shu did not dare to lift her head. Granny Lu had already announced that Gu Mang was going to marry into the Lu family. Her father might be discussing her marriage plans with Commander Lu right now.

  However, even that seemed impossible now. In the Lu family, Granny Lu had the final say.

  Yu Shu looked down hopelessly and explained what had happened in the past as if she were being humiliated. She had said that she had been digging for news on Lu Chengzhou and his whereabouts. She had pretended to bump into him and joined them for meals smoothly.

  Whenever Qin Fang and He Yidu were present, Lu Chengzhou did not say much to her.

  “I must have been overthinking. I misunderstood the Lu family’s intentions. I’m sorry.” Yu Shu’s voice was hoarse. Heartbroken, she dug her nails into her flesh.

  There was a subtle smile on Lu Chengzhou’s face as he tilted his head slightly. Looking down, he tidied up his sleeves and said carelessly, “If I ever hear anyone speak ill of Gu Mang again, you know what will happen, right?”


  He did not even need to raise his head and look at anyone. His aura was already oppressive enough. How could she possibly say anything more?

  Yu Shu and the others had become laughing stocks. They left the venue in a pathetic state.

  Just as Yu Shu walked out of the venue, He Yidu also left. People who noticed this were so stunned that they did not know where to look. Why did He Yidu leave? Everyone witnessed the scene clearly.

  Yu Shu and the others could not bear the consequences of their actions. Their families might also become collateral damage.

  Gu Mang smirked subtly. From the corner of her eyes, she met eyes with Huo Zhi. Then, the smile on her face vanished and she looked very cold all of a sudden.

  She shifted her gaze elsewhere.
