Chapter 550 Appearing Blatantly

Mrs. Lu didn't know whether such an occasion today was arranged by Mr. Lu or for Lu Yichen's sake. But seeing such a grand scene, she felt uncomfortable.

From the very beginning, she was unhappy, but she had to pretend to be happy, which made her feel extremely depressed.

So, after seeing Lu Yichen's performance just now, she couldn't help but mock him. In the end, she aroused the anger of Mr. Lu.

After making sure that Madam Lu was awake, Mr. Lu took her hand again and began to greet those who came up to him.

Without anyone noticing, Zhong Mengxuan swaggered into the banquet hall.

At this moment, she was completely different from when she was in the lounge just now. With exquisite makeup, expensive jewelry, and a well-fitting dress, she looked no different from the other people attending the engagement party.

I don’t know if the security guard at the door didn’t notice or for some other reason, but he didn’t even come forward to check or ask a few questions.

Just like that, Zhong Mengxuan entered the banquet hall without attracting anyone's attention.

She smiled and talked in front of Lu Chenran for a while, but did not go forward to say hello.

It wasn't because she was sensible or because of other people's opinions, but she simply didn't want to disgust Lu Chenran.

For an occasion like today, Lu Chenran would definitely bring Long Jiarui with him. If she went up to him at this time, Lu Chenran would only think that she was immature and would embarrass him.

She only needed to appear in front of Lu Chenran and let Lu Chenran know that she would attend today's engagement party.

This was to let Lu Chenran and everyone in the Lu family know that no matter what, she was Zhong Nianyao's cousin. No matter how big the conflict was, they were still relatives who were connected by blood.

This will also help to stabilize her position in front of Lu Chenran.

After walking around for a while, Zhong Mengxuan was very tactful and went to another place. However, before she took a few steps, she was stopped by someone.

When she turned around, she saw that the person holding her was none other than her mother, Li Yiqiu.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Zhong Mengxuan asked in surprise, "You suddenly pulled me like this, and it really scared me. If I wasn't brave, I would have shouted it out now. Then I would really lose face."

Ignoring Zhong Mengxuan's reproach, Li Yiqiu asked directly, "Don't talk about this for now. Tell me first, why are you here?"

This morning, she had tentatively asked Zhong Nianyao about it. At that time, Zhong Nianyao still refused to give in and had no intention of letting Zhong Mengxuan attend. But now Zhong Mengxuan appeared here. Wasn't it obvious that she sneaked in?
"Why can't I be here?" Zhong Mengxuan said as if it was a matter of course. "As a member of the Zhong family, it would be unreasonable for me not to attend such an important occasion today!"

"You know very well..." Li Yiqiu couldn't help but frown, and finally said helplessly, "You'd better leave quickly! The engagement party is about to start. If Nian Yao sees you, she will definitely send someone to kick you out. Then, no one will look good."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but stretch out her hand and was about to pull Zhong Mengxuan away.

"I'm not leaving." Zhong Mengxuan shook off Li Yiqiu's hand and said, "Don't keep pulling and tugging here. It's so ugly."

Since she was here today, she was not afraid of Zhong Nianyao. Because she knew in her heart that Zhong Nianyao would not attend the engagement party today. Although she didn't know what was on the blade, the man said that if the thing cut Zhong Nianyao, even if it was just a little bit of skin, she would not let Zhong Nianyao have an easy time.

Just now in the lounge, when leaving, Zhong Nian Yao didn't even have the strength to catch up with her, and it would be impossible for her to attend the engagement party later.

That's why she dared to appear here so blatantly, not afraid of being discovered by Zhong Nian Yao.

Anyway, she appeared here today just to let Lu Chenran and his mother know that she was also present.

As for whether Zhong Nianyao can attend on time, or even whether she attends at all, that has nothing to do with her.

Listening to Zhong Mengxuan's complaints, Li Yiqiu was really irritated. "Kid, why don't you know the situation when doing things? You know very well that neither the old man nor Zhong Nianyao agreed to let you come here today. If your way of acting first and asking for permission later is exposed, you will be the one who will be embarrassed."

"It'll be fine." Zhong Mengxuan had a confident look on her face, "Zhong Nianyao won't chase me away today."

To be precise, it was impossible to drive her away.

Seeing Zhong Mengxuan looking calm and composed and showing no intention of leaving, Li Yiqiu was so angry that she could hardly speak.

Li Yiqiu really wanted Zhong Mengxuan to leave quickly, in case Zhong Nianyao came out and she had a conflict with her in public, which would be bad.

As if she didn't notice Li Yiqiu's worries at all, Zhong Mengxuan was like a butterfly, moving around the banquet, looking comfortable and enjoying herself.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was time for the banquet to officially begin, but Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao, the parties involved, had not shown up yet.

Everyone is waiting for the protagonist to arrive.

For a while, some discussions slowly began in the banquet hall. Everyone was discussing why the protagonist of this engagement party had not shown up and whether something had happened.

After all, Mr. Lu and Mr. Zhong were old and knowledgeable. After looking at each other, they made a decision immediately.

Mr. Lu stayed where he was to comfort the guests, while Mr. Zhong led his men towards the lounge.

At this time, Zhong Mengxuan, who was hiding among the guests, had a proud and relaxed smile on her face.

However, the smile on her face soon disappeared because she saw Mr. Zhong walking in from outside.

Behind Mr. Zhong were today’s protagonists—Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao.

Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao were dressed in their best clothes, arm in arm, with smiles on their faces, walking slowly from outside, attracting everyone's attention.

Such a dazzling pair of people, like God's favorites, are enough to grab everyone's attention even if they just stand there, making people immersed in their charm.
