When Lu Anran arrived fashionably late at the venue, she noticed the sullen- looking Lu Anxin interacting with other heiresses. She was indeed wearing her custom- made gown. Jing Xiangen who also arrived at the venue at the same time, could not help frowning when he saw this scene. He had especially designed this gown for Lu Anran yet it was worn by a such vulgar personâŚ.. Ugh, she is totally unworthy!\n
âSee? Your gown is so popular ah!â Lu Anran turned to Jing Xiangen with a smile, âPlease excuse me.â She then walked towards Lu Anxin.\n
Naturally, Lu Anxin has also noticed the late arrival of Lu Anran. After seeing Lu Anranâs gown had the same rose theme, Lu Anxin could not help clenching her teeth. The gown on Lu Anran was also so goddamn beautiful! That gown should be hers as well! What a waste!\n
Chu Yao who was nearby also tightened her hands into fists. Her gown was also a white strapless gown but regardless of the design or the material, anyone could see the vast difference between them with just a glance. Especially that pendent hanging between Lu Anranâs clavicles, reflected light onto Lu Anranâs skin making her glow very attractively. Moreover, the fact that she happened to wear white today, added an extra hint of abstinenceâŚ..\n
After locking in that figure among the crowd of people, Long Yuxing smiled. This is the kind of aura that his wife should have. It wasnât something that rubbish Lu Anxin could compare againstâŚ.\n
âAnran, you are here! Come over, letâs talk over there!â It was as though she was afraid of what Lu Anran would say in front of others. Lu Anxin hurriedly apologised to the heiresses next to her and dragging away Lu Anran to a desolated corner. \n
âLet go.â Lu Anran shook away Lu Anxinâs hand and rubbed her arm with dissatisfaction. As Lu Anxin had a guilty conscience and was anxious, she unconsciously hurt Lu Anran by using too much strength. \n
âAnran.â Lu Anxin expressed signs of hesitance, âWe are outside now. Letâs discuss this when we go home.â \n
âDiscuss what?â Lu Anran felt it was ridiculous. It seems that Lu Anxin also know what shame is ah!\n
âYouâŚâŚâ Watching the ridicule in Lu Anranâs gaze, Lu Anxin felt anger arising from her embarrassment. However, she still suppressed her emotions and said, âTake it as though your Elder Sister Cousin is begging you!â\n
âBegging me?â The corners of Lu Anranâs mouth lifted. âEven if you beg me, I have the right to refuse isnât it?â \n
âYouâŚ.â Lu Anxin clenched her teeth and continued on, âThis is the first time your Elder Sister Cousin is begging you! No matter what, you should turn a blind eye since we are relatives! Anyway! I am also doing this for Lu Corporation! No matter what, I am still an heiress of Lu Corporation. If I dress in rags today, Iâll be disgracing Lu Corporation ah!â \n
âYou can choose not to attend.â Lu Anran refuted immediately, âStealing for Lu Corporation? This is a matter of your own moral conduct!â It was really a case of people who live together share common traits ah! Lu Anxin was indeed Lu Junanâs daughter! She kept repeating it was âfor Lu Corporationâ, but in the end wasnât it just for her own selfish desires?! \n
âYou!â Lu Anxin was about to hit the roof. âLu Anran, donât be foolish enough to reject a face-saving offer!â \n
âIsnât it just a gown?â Lu Anran snorted coldly, âIâll just give it to you.â\n
âReally?â Lu Anxin was dumbfounded. Her eyes sparkled with surprise, âAnran! You are really my favourite little sister ah!â After saying that, she went over to hug Lu Anranâs arm. \n
âGet lost!â Lu Anran shifted quickly and said, âWe are both very clear what we are like. Donât use your tricks on me! Even if you are naturally talented at acting, I do not want to waste my acting skills on you! Excuse me!â After saying that, Lu Anran turned around and walked towards Lu Anhu and Xue Dingan who were waiting for her nearby.\n
ââŚ..â Clenching down on her teeth, Lu Anxin really wanted to stab Lu Anran a few times. This goddamn bitch! Taking a yard after she gave her an inch! In that case, donât blame her! Thinking of the photos that she took with her phone, Lu Anxin snorted coldly and walked in Lu Anranâs direction, to a girl who was wearing a lavender gown. The girl was holding a cocktail and her gestures conformed to the standard of a real heiress. \n
âShan Shan! You are here!â Lu Anxin smiled as she tapped on the girlâs shoulder.\n
Yue Ningshan turned her head towards Lu Anxin. âAnxin! Wow! Your gown tonight suits you very well!â \n
âThank you!â Replied Lu Anxin with pride on her face. She knew that this dress was specially made just for her. âHey, come over here. I have something to discuss with you!â \n
âOkay!â Yue Ningshan smiled as she followed Lu Anxin to a desolated corner. âWhat is it? So secretive?â\n
âIsnât your Yue Corporation going to start renovating a new shop in Xin Dong?â Lu Anxin asked smilingly. \n
âYeah! Why?â Yue Ningshan was on guard internally. Lu Corporationâs shop was also in Xin Dong. Was Lu Anxin a commercial spy? But Lu Anxin didnât seemed like the kind of person who could do such things ah! She has known Lu Anxin for a long time now. She always had such high self-esteem! \n
âI have a drawing here and would like to show it to you as a reference!â Lu Anxin smiled as she unlocked her phone to show each and every photo to Yue Ningshan.\n
âThis is a brilliant design!â Yue Ningshan was surprised. She really likes this kind of ancient decor. \n
âIf you like it, Iâll send the photos over to you later!â Lu Anxin said with a smile. \n
âWhere did you get this design from?â Yue Ningshan asked.\n
âIâŚ..â When Lu Anxin heard Yue Ningshanâs question, her mind whirled. She then bit her lower lip to look aggrieved and sighed, âAyâŚâŚâ \n
âItâs all because of that cousin of mine.â Lu Anxin said with regret. âShe has always liked to take my things since young. Initially my grandfather was going to let my brother and I manage the 100th branch in Xin Dong. Who knew what trickery she used? She stole away the management rights, even the gown she is wearing today was stolen from me! That was originally mineâŚ..â \n
âAh?â Yue Ningshan was stunned. When Lu Anxin mentioned Lu Anran, she was not very comfortable. She was really hurt by Long Yuxingâs difference in attitude between the two of them! But after hearing what Lu Anxin had said, Yue Ningshan was stupefied. âReally ahâŚâŚâ\n
âYeah!â Lu Anxin frowned as she sobbed, âI canât bear it anymoreâŚ.. SheâŚ. She even wants to steal my boyfriend!â \n
âYour boyfriend? You have a boyfriend?â This was news to Yue Ningshan. \n
âWeâŚ. We are in love with each other, but we just havenât announce it yetâŚ.. My father has tacitly consented to it.â Lu Anxin lowered her eyes, as though she was being bashful. âBut Lu Anran shamefully went to seduce himâŚ. Thatâs her cousin-in-law ah!â \n
âThisâŚ.â Yue Ningshan also frowned. Lu Anran was indeed in the wrong. She really never expected Lu Anran to be such a person ah!\n
âSo, so I wanted to retaliateâŚ..â Lu Anxin finally reached the main point. âThis design is the blueprint for Lu Corporationâs 100th branch store. I have seen plans of Long Corporation Shopping Mall. Yue Corporationâs store is closer to the entrance. If your store is sufficiently magnificent, who would still enter her store? Furthermore, if the interior designs are similar, one would naturally choose the nearest store!â\n
ââŚ..â Yue Ningshan bit her lower lip, âThis matter is beyond my control. I⌠I am unable to make a decision!â\n
âThere is no need make a decision! Obviously, Yue Corporation stands to profit!â Lu Anxin said, âYou also understand how important the Xin Dongâs store is to the Yue Corporation!â \n
âI⌠I need to think about it!â Yue Ningshan still felt that it is not a good idea.\n
âThen think about it well!â Lu Anxin said, âI also do not want to dig a pit for our Lu Corporation. I just want Grandpa recognise Lu Anranâs incompetence and then hand over the management rights to me and my brotherâŚ.â\n
âAnxin, I have to think over this matter!â Yue Ningshan pursed her lips. \n
âItâs okay. Just think it over!â Lu Anxin replied. âCome to me when you have decided!â Lu Anxin swayed her phone in front of Yue Ningshan. \n
âMhm.â Yue Ningshan nodded. Forget the drawings, what she has learnt from Lu Anxinâs description of Lu Anranâs character today was a real eye-opener! Because those words were from Lu Anranâs Elder Cousin Sister, Yue Ningshan did not even suspect the validity of those words. \n
Gazing at the white figure near the edge of the swimming pool, Yue Ningshan had mixed feeling yet the corners of Lu Anxinâs mouth lifted in a smug smile. Lu Anran, letâs see if you can still escape this time?!\n
Lu Anran suddenly felt a shiver down her back and was dumbfounded. Whatâs happening?\n
âWhatâs wrong?â Lu Anhu who has always been next to Lu Anran, asked. \n
âNothingâŚ.â Lu Anran shook her head. âI suddenly felt a shiver. Not sure what is happening.â \n
âIs someone cursing you?â Xue Dingan held a cup of freshly squeezed juice and took a sip out of the straw. So cold and nice.\n
âWho knows!â Lu Anran smiled. âThere are too many people out to harm me! Otherwise, the both of you would not be here ah! Isnât it?â\n
âYour attitude sure is good.â Xue Dingan shrugged.\n
âItâs not bad!â Lu Anran took up a pink drink from the table and took a sip. âMm⌠A sweet Cherry Blossom Cocktail made for ladies. Not bad!â \n
âWhat about this one?â Lu Anhu took a blue cocktail and handed it over to Lu Anran to have a sip. âHow is it?â\n
âThis is not bad too.â Lu Anran nodded. âBlue Coral Reef Cocktail. The orange liqueur needs another 0.04 ml but it doesnât affect the taste. You can try it.â \n
âYour tongue is so godly!â Xue Dingan was also familiar with Lu Anranâs awesome taste bud. âItâs even better than the specially trained police dogs in our team!â \n
ââŚ.â Lu Anran rolled her eyes at Xue Dingan. Who would compare people to police dogs? Also, the most sensitive part of the dog is their tongue! However, Lu Anran could not be bothered to argue with Xue Dingan. With a snort, she continued sampling the petit fours on the table. The cream was so light and refreshing, and the desserts were sweet yet not sickeningly so. How wonderful! Long Corporation was indeed exceptional. Looks like her tongue is in for a treat today!
