Chapter 959: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-No Boyfriend (44)
As they grew up, the Lian family’s business gradually declined, and they had little contact with the Zuo family.
However, at a middle school class gathering, Lian Keying secretly drugged Zuo Yue’s drink. Fortunately, Zuo Yue discovered it early and only took two sips without any problems. Otherwise, something might not have happened that day.
After the incident, Lian Keying innocently said that it was just a joke. She even said that a certain boy had liked Zuo Yue for many years and was only helping that man pursue her.
Did he have to drug her to pursue her?
Are you sure you don’t want her to fool around with men at such a young age so that she can brag about her “dark history” everywhere?
Zuo Yue had been deeply annoyed by that delicate girl Lian Keying since she was young. After that incident, she had directly shed all pretense of cordiality with her and never contacted her again.
Later on, Lian Keying came to her several times to beg for her forgiveness and even said that she would not go overboard in the future. Although Zuo Yue could not be bothered with her, she still gave her a chance to continue being friends.
In the past, she thought that if she could not afford to offend her, she could still hide. There was no need for their relationship to be so tense.
However, she did not expect that this would give Lian Keying a chance to take advantage of it. The Lian family did not have much status, so Lian Keying liked to be with Zuo Yue. When Zuo Yue was sixteen years old, she was invited to attend a charity party organized by the upper-class people in Los Angeles for young people. Because she was the only one attending, Lian Keying begged her to go and play.
Zuo Yue couldn’t persuade her, and Lian Keying kept wiping her tears and saying that the Lian family’s business was getting worse and worse. She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to marry into a good family in the future, so she wanted to follow her to attend more gatherings like this to meet some people and expand her social circle.
Although Zuo Yue was not willing, her personality was still a little immature at that time. She did not know how to refuse at all, so she brought her along.
It was because of that charity dinner that she finally saw Lian Keying’s true colors.
Lian Ke Ying wore the best and most expensive princess dress in history to attend the banquet. Zuo Yue, who was only wearing a very ordinary dress, looked like a follower. Lian Ke Ying specially dressed herself up to be shiny. No matter how beautiful Zuo Yue was, she still looked like a follower. The main thing was that she was just going to attend it casually. She had never thought about dressing up.
Even though many people knew that Zuo Yue was Miss Sun of the Zuo family and knew that her status was not ordinary, they still could not help but ask about their relationship when they saw Lian Keying.
Lian Keying told those people that Zuo Yue was too timid to attend such a young bachelor’s party alone, so she dragged her along. At that time, everyone was dressed up, only Zuo Yue was dressed very casually. Lian Keying told everyone that she had long advised Zuo Yue to change her taste, but she did not listen. She even said that she was Zuo Yue’s best friend, but she worried a lot for Zuo Yue every day.
She even told those young men who had a good impression of the taciturn Zuo Yue that a young lady like Zuo Yue looked down on such banquets. She did not really want to attend such banquets, nor did she want to interact too much with the people at the banquet.
Of course, Zuo Yue did not hear these outrageous words because she had gone to the washroom.
What exactly did Lian Keying say that caused those people to look at her with all kinds of strange eyes, and even some young men who originally had a good impression of her avoided her. She still didn’t know the whole content.
She only knew that Lian Keying had said a lot of bad things about her at that time. She only knew that a kind-hearted person had reminded her later that her best friend had been using all kinds of ” dark history ” of Miss Sun of the Zuo family to raise her status in the hearts of those people and to attract more attention to her.
Ninety-nine percent of the so-called dark history was fabricated, but it became a joke for everyone that night.
Zuo Yue had been very stubborn since she was young. She did not like to explain when she encountered something, and she was indeed too lazy to attend such banquets.
Later, Lian Keying still wanted to find her, thinking that Zuo Yue did not know what happened at the banquet that night. However, Zuo Yue never saw her again.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the Lian family had some friendship with the Zuo family, Zuo Yue would have slapped her long ago.
Due to her grandfather’s temper and the two families ‘reputation, Zuo Yue chose to stay away from this god of plague and completely turned a blind eye to it.
However, because of this ” cold war ” for two whole years, Lian Keying tried to beg for her forgiveness at the beginning until she gradually became an invisible enemy.
Zuo Yue was also surprised to see Lian Keying here today. What surprised her even more was the tall man beside Lian Keying. He looked less than thirty years old. From his clothes, he seemed to be a rich man.
So Lian Keying had finally achieved her goal. Before she turned eighteen, she had found a rich man who could support her for the rest of her life?
After all, she had just heard the keywords engagement and gown.
Zuo Yue glanced at Lian Keying without batting an eyelid and lightly curled her lips.””Yes, long time no see, Miss Lian.”
Hearing Zuo Yue’s unfamiliar way of addressing her, Lian Keying looked at her for a while before she suddenly smiled. She then turned around and whispered something to the tall man beside her. The man immediately looked at Zuo Yue with a strange expression, as if he thought she was a weirdo.
Zuo Yue’s cold gaze met the man’s.””What’s wrong? Did your fiancée tell you some stories about me to lighten the atmosphere between you two? What did she say just now? Why don’t you tell me?”
Unexpectedly, after two years of not seeing each other, Zuo Yue, who used to be quiet, seemed to have become much sharper than before. Lian Keying glanced at her and said with a smile,”Zuo Yue, we were just joking. Don’t take it seriously. Actually, I didn’t say much. I just mentioned the things that you always complained to me about back then.”
Zuo Yue’s instincts told her that something was wrong, so she did not go along with her words. However, Zuo Yue remembered that she had never complained about anything to her.
Lian Keying saw that Zuo Yue did not reply, so she continued to talk to herself,””You’re already eighteen years old. Why don’t you see any decent men around you? My boyfriend is a tycoon from a Wall Street financial company. We met on a cruise and are now getting engaged. We will have a wedding in two years.”
As Lian Keying spoke, she looked at Zuo Yue proudly and proudly. Her eyes were full of arrogance and her voice was still full of mockery,””But Zuo Yue, you don’t have a boyfriend, and you didn’t come here with anyone else. Why did you come here alone? Could it be that your Zuo family wants to marry you to some old man for a political marriage? I heard that rich people like you guys like to sell your daughters.”
