Chapter 110 Reunion at the Banquet
Chapter 110 Reunion at the Banquet
A moment later, Old Fu's voice rang out again.
“Miss Lan! This is an imperial green jade bracelet! And this, it’s truly a masterpiece of craftsmanship. And what is this?” Then Old Master Fu picked up the pendant-sized sword and examined it closely.
"This...this is made of the finest huanghuali wood! Last time, Zhenbaozhai was fortunate enough to acquire a wooden pendant of similar quality and size, which fetched thirty million at auction!"
Hearing what Old Fu said, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
This is icy jadeite and an imperial green bracelet—just who is Yun Yao? Could it be that she squandered the Yun family's wealth? Or is it all Su Yuchen's money?
Then look at the couple sitting on the sofa; they both have an attitude of "I have money, what can you do about it?"
"Su Yuchen, why don't you explain again?" Yun Yao looked to the side and said awkwardly.
"Explain it yourself."
Yun Yao: “…”
Whether I explain or not, it's not like I'm the only one being scrutinized!
Yun Yao and Su Yuchen ignored each other.
Just as everyone's attention was focused on Yun Yao and Su Yuchen, a wild and unrestrained voice suddenly rang out from the doorway.
"Oh, you're all here! Sorry, sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way."
"Grandma Bu, happy birthday! This is just a small token of my appreciation!" she said, then gestured for someone to present her gift.
"Grandma Bu, it's been a long time! You still look so young, you don't look eighty at all. Look at your flawless skin, and your temperament is something that even noble ladies can only dream of!"
As everyone present wondered who this person was who was so flamboyant, only Su Yuchen ignored the person who was stealing the show in the hall, picked up his wine glass, and took a small sip.
Yun Yao glanced at the flashy man, then quickly looked away, pretending nothing had happened.
Su Yuchen caught a glimpse of Yun Yao's actions out of the corner of his eye, but said nothing.
After the man finished his lavish praise, Bu Lanying, who was sitting at the head of the table, was all smiles and quickly invited him to take a seat.
"Peichen, it's been so long since I've seen you, you're still so likable! Unlike some people, who only know how to make me angry!" Bu Lanying said, not forgetting to subtly criticize others even in her joy.
Everyone in the hall was shrewd enough to know who Bu Lanying was talking about, but they dared not gossip about that person behind her back.
Mo Peichen nodded slightly and then showered Bu Lanying with concern, finally making her happy before greeting her and walking towards Su Yuchen.
You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me.
Yun Yao casually picked up a book from the table and used it to cover her face.
"Yu Chen, have you heard? Yun Yao has been acquitted." Mo Peichen said as he sat down next to Su Yu Chen.
Yun Yao moved to the side, giving him and Su Yuchen more space.
Su Yuchen slowly raised his eyes and nodded.
"Sigh, I thought the world was finally at peace, but before I could even be happy, they were released. Isn't this just a disaster for humanity?!"
Su Yuchen's lips curled slightly, but he didn't say anything.
After taking a sip of water, Mo Peichen continued, "My right eyelid has been twitching a lot lately. Who knows when I might run into that terrifying woman? I think just to be on the safe side, maybe I should get plastic surgery? What do you think?"
As Mo Peichen finished speaking, a crushing sound came from behind him.
As he stared longingly at Su Yuchen, someone patted him on the shoulder.
"what happened?"
Mo Peichen turned his head with an innocent and harmless smile, then his pupils suddenly contracted.
"Hu...Hu, Yunyao!"
He quickly moved closer to Su Yuchen.
"Su Yuchen, what... what is she doing here?"
Su Yuchen pried the hand that was clinging to his arm off and said casually, "I think you should get a new phone; the internet speed is too slow."
The news that his secret marriage partner is Yun Yao should be all over the world by now, but this guy is still unable to extricate himself from the news that Yun Yao was acquitted. It can only be said that his ability to catch information is too poor.
"A terrifying woman?" Yun Yao's expression darkened slightly, and she unconsciously lowered her voice.
Mo Peichen looked at the book in Yun Yao's hands, which had been crumpled beyond recognition, and felt that the book's fate was a reflection of his own future!
He couldn't help but swallow hard, and quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, big sister, how can a stunning beauty like you be associated with the word 'horror'? I'm talking about someone else, someone else."
Yun Yao's lips curled into a sinister smile as she slowly clenched her fist in front of Mo Peichen.
"Do you think I will believe it?"
Mo Peichen recalled the fear he felt when Yun Yao dominated him on Yuling Island, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
"Su... Su Yuchen, save me." He kept clinging to Su Yuchen's arm.
Su Yuchen was annoyed by him and finally said something slowly.
"Alright, let's not argue with him. After all, not everyone can stay as calm as I am when they see a creature like you."
Yun Yao: "???" Biological? Your whole family are biological!
Mo Peichen: "..." Why does it feel like his words are full of contempt for me?
But since it was Su Yuchen who spoke, Yun Yao restrained herself a bit. After glaring at the two of them, she let out a long, threatening voice.
"You two better watch out! If you piss me off, I'll kill you both so you'll have company on your journey to the underworld!"
Mo Peichen: "..." There's absolutely no need for that!
"Don't worry, she won't." Su Yuchen whispered this in Mo Peichen's ear as Yun Yao's gaze left them.
Think Yun Yao didn't hear? You're wrong!
Tch, acting like you know me so well!
Where no one could see, Yun Yao's lips curled slightly, her good mood written all over her face.
Mo Peichen is an outgoing person, especially towards his own people, and he is even less guarded. It didn't take long for him to become familiar with Yun Yao.
"Um... what species are you?" Mo Peichen poured Yun Yao a cup of tea like a lackey.
"god."
God? She said she was a god?
Mo Peichen was trying his best to suppress his laughter, his face turning completely red.
After a long pause, he continued, "I've heard that gods each have their own duties. What kind of god are you? The Earth God?"
Yun Yao stuffed a piece of mochi into her mouth and glanced at Mo Peichen, whose face was full of curiosity.
"I forgot." She had lost track of how long she had wandered through the river of time, and some things from very long ago were beyond her memory.
Mo Peichen rolled his eyes countless times in his heart. Yun Yao was indeed beautiful, but which deity is not compassionate and loving? Unlike her, who kidnaps and extorts people at the drop of a hat and has been invited to the police station time and time again. Doesn't she care about losing face as a deity?
Yes, yes, she must be lying! What kind of deity is she? She must feel ashamed to admit her identity as a tree spirit and is just bragging!
Yun Yao lowered her eyes to look at the spilled tea on the table, then looked at Mo Peichen, who had a blank expression on his face.
He couldn't help but scoff inwardly, thinking to himself, "Who knows what kind of nonsense this brat is making up about me!"
"Oh, I've lived in this world for so long that it's understandable that I forgot for a while, but now, I suddenly remember."
Mo Peichen snapped out of his daze, his face full of confusion.
"What do you remember?"
"It just reminded me of what kind of god I am," Yun Yao said with a smile to Mo Peichen.
"What god?"
"To tell you the truth, I am a god who governs the life and death of mortals. I am used to being capricious. If I don't like someone, I'll make sure they are reborn as a pig or a donkey in their next life!"
Mo Peichen: "..."
