“As expected, after interacting with small families for too long, your words will become rough. Lu Yan, I advise you to interact less with those low-level people. Don’t embarra.s.s our Lu Family.” Lu Yue glanced at Lin Yin arrogantly.
Lin Yin had no intention of going with Huo Ge, but seeing these people’s faces, she suddenly changed her mind.
“Huo Ge, aren’t you going to see your Grandma? I’ll go with you!” Lin Yin smiled.
Lu Yue didn’t want to say anything about Lin Yin, but seeing that Lin Yin was overestimating herself, she sneered. “Lin Yin, don’t think that just because you’re good-looking and have charmed Lu Ming and Huo Ge, you think your status has risen. The Huo Family’s Grandma isn’t someone you can control just by showing off a little.”
Huo Ge did not expect this young lady from the capital to be so strong. She was humiliating her in public.
He instantly turned his attention to Lin Yin. He had no intention of helping Lin Yin at all. He even wanted to see her angry.
Unfortunately, Huo Ge was disappointed. Lin Yin was not angry. She even stopped the angry Lu Yan from hitting her.
Just as Huo Ge was waiting to watch the commotion, Lin Yin’s gaze turned to
Huo Ge. She widened her eyes and looked at him innocently. “Will Grandma Huo chase me out?”
Huo Ge was stunned for a moment before he smiled and shook his head calmly. “Of course not. My Grandma likes good-looking people too.”
Lin Yin immediately turned to look at Lu Yue and Gong Yue. She shrugged and
sneered. “What should I do? I think Grandma Huo might not chase me out because I’m pretty.”
Lu Yue sneered. She did not expect Lin Yin to be so shameless.
Old Madam Huo was someone who might not even be nice to her biological grandson, Huo Bing. Would she be nice to an uninvited Lin Yin?
Lu Yue suddenly had a scheming look in her eyes. She smiled at Lin Yin and said, “Then why don’t we make a bet?”
Lin Yin widened her big bright eyes and asked curiously, “Okay, what are we betting on?”
“Let’s bet if you’ll be chased out of the Huo Family by Grandma Huo! If you’re chased out of the Huo Family, you’ll lose,” Lu Yue raised her eyebrows and said confidently.
In Lu Yue’s opinion, someone like Grandma Huo who valued status would definitely not let someone like Lin Yin stay at such a banquet for the young people of the various large families.
She even suspected that Lin Yin had used some abnormal method to sneak into the Huo Family’s banquet and find a rich husband to hang on to.
The surroundings suddenly became excited. The banquet had yet to officially begin, but there was already so much excitement to watch.
Lin Yin looked at Lu Yue mockingly. “I’m reminding you out of kindness. Since I can come to this banquet, I naturally came openly. I’m a guest. Do you really think Grandma Huo will chase me away so disrespectfully?”
“Do you not dare to gamble anymore?” Gong Yue immediately mocked.
In the city, everyone knew that Old Madam Huo valued family background, especially after the lover Huo Huai brought back killed Zhao Ning. Old Madam Huo could not tolerate those unscrupulous, low-cla.s.s women who clung to the rich and powerful.
Therefore, Gong Yue also wanted Lin Yin and Lu Yue to bet because she knew that Lin Yin would definitely lose. She even thought of all the punishments for losing.
Lu Yan grabbed Lin Yin. She didn’t want Lin Yin to be impulsive because she knew Old Madam Huo’s character very well. If she was really angry, Old Madam Huo would really chase her away.
She might as well go up and beat the two of them up. Anyway, Lin Yin was very powerful. If she couldn’t beat her, Lin Yin would save her. With Lin Yin around, her uncle would help her settle this matter.
Seeing Lu Yan pull Lin Yin back, Lu Yue and Gong Yue became even more smug.
Lu Yue sneered and said, “It’s fine if you don’t dare. I won’t argue with someone like you who hasn’t seen much of the world. After all, the situation is limited. Even if a child born into a poor family obtains some material wealth, they still don’t have much knowledge. That’s why they think that everything they want in this world can be exchanged with beauty.”
The group of people watching the show wanted to see if Lin Yin really had this much courage.
Lin Yin grabbed Lu Yan, who was gritting her teeth beside her, with a smile on her face, but it did not reach her eyes. “There’s nothing to be afraid of. Today, I really want to use my looks to please Old Madam Huo. Tell me, what’s the bet?”
Lu Yue and Gong Yue looked at each other. Then, Gong Yue took two steps forward and smiled. “We don’t want a girl like you to lose too badly. It won’t be easy to clean up when the time comes.. Why don’t the person who lost be the serving girl for everyone present tonight? It can be considered as serving the esteemed guests that are present here today!”
