Chapter 105: It’s All Nan Qiao’s Fault

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Nan Qiao and Luo Wanbai’s commotion attracted many people’s attention. Murong Chen followed Luo Wanbai’s pleading gaze and looked at Cheng Jie.

This made Cheng Jie, who had originally planned to ignore it, feel immense pressure.

He suppressed the rising anger in his heart and revealed a smile that no one could dislike. He took two steps forward and stood between Murong Chen and Luo Wanbai.

“Your sister was indeed wronged in this matter. I hope President Murong will give Grandpa face…”

Since he was forced to extinguish the fire brought to him, Cheng Jie couldn’t just ignore it.

Not to mention that today was a day for everyone to get to know him. If such a mess was not cleared, it would affect his future status.

Cheng Jie looked at Luo Wanbai as if she was a troublemaker.

“Quickly apologize.”

He frowned and urged Luo Wanbai to admit her mistake.

Murong Chen’s cold eyes were fixed on her. After a long time, he said,

“Just this once.”

If it weren’t for the fact that this was Old Master Cheng’s birthday banquet, Murong Chen wouldn’t have been so easy to talk to. He didn’t even have the time to dote on his younger sister let alone see her get bullied?

Cheng Jie’s heart was beating fast, but he heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.

As long as the other party said this, things would be easy.

Nan Qiao also got out of Murong Chen’s arms. She held his arm and stood at the side. Her smiling eyes fell on Luo Wanbai’s greenish-purple face. She found it very interesting.

Tsk, tsk, tsk. It could even be used as a palette.

Nan Qiao sighed in her heart.

“Apologize.”

Cheng Jie reminded her in a low voice, but it was like a slap to her face, making it hurt terribly.

She bit her lip. Cheng Jie’s words made her feel ashamed and resentful, not to mention that Nan Qiao was looking at her with undisguised mirth. This was what she couldn’t accept the most.

The other party’s eyes were curved, and her smiling face made her feel like tearing it apart.

However, Murong Chen was not someone she could afford to offend.

“I’m sorry. I was rude just now and offended Young Miss Murong.”

Luo Wanbai apologized reluctantly. Although there was a smile on her face, her expression was extremely ugly. Her voice was just audible to the other three. “Satisfied, little princess?”

Murong Chen’s expression didn’t change after hearing the apology. When he lowered his head and asked Nan Qiao, his cold expression instantly turned into a pool of spring water. It was shockingly gentle.

“If you’re not satisfied, let her say it a hundred times, a thousand times.”

If these words were to be said by anyone else, they would only think that they were crazy.

However, no one dared to disobey Murong Chen.

Nan Qiao admired Luo Wanbai’s expression with satisfaction. Considering that the banquet was about to begin, she nodded indifferently.

This time, she could take it as a lesson. If this person still dared to provoke her next time, her outcome would not be so good.

Murong Chen didn’t want to spend too much time with someone who made his Little Sister unhappy, so he left with Nan Qiao.

Seeing that there was no more fun to watch, the others scattered like birds and beasts. They found their seats and waited for the banquet to begin.

Only Luo Wanbai and Cheng Jie were left standing there.

“Cheng Jie, I…”

When Luo Wanbai saw that most of the people had left, she slowly raised her head and looked at the person she liked with tears in her eyes. She felt extremely wronged.

When had she ever suffered such grievances since she was young?

Seeing that the handsome and elegant Cheng Jie still standing there waiting for her, the emotions that she had just suppressed seemed to have found an outlet. Grievance, dissatisfaction, and resentment flowed out like a flood.

She subconsciously moved to Cheng Jie’s side to complain, but he inadvertently avoided her.

Cheng Jie looked at her pitiful appearance and couldn’t feel any pity for her. He felt frustrated for no reason, and even his voice became colder when he spoke to her.

“This time, it’s only because of Grandpa that Murong Chen let you off. If you provoke Nan Qiao again, even I won’t be able to help you.”

These words clearly carried a hint of impatience in Cheng Jie’s heart, but when they came out of his mouth, they turned into a tone of worry.

It was as if he was very helpless and could not do anything for Luo Wanbai.

After saying this, Cheng Jie also left.

He still had to keep an eye on the banquet. He didn’t have time to be intimate with Luo Wanbai. Moreover, his target was Nan Qiao.

Stunned for a moment, she raised her hand to wipe her tears, but as she stared at Cheng Jie’s back, her hand froze in midair and dug her fingers into her palm as if she couldn’t feel any pain.

If she had complained to Cheng Jie in the past, he would always comfort her gently.

But this time, Cheng Jie’s unusual indifference seemed to have turned into a sharp knife, stabbing her under her already disheveled appearance, revealing her b.l.o.o.d.y insides.

It was all Nan Qiao’s fault!

Nan Qiao’s smiling face appeared in Luo Wanbai’s mind, as if she was watching her make a fool of herself. She felt that all of this was caused by the other party.

If it wasn’t for her, how could she have made a fool of herself in front of everyone?

No matter what, the birthday banquet officially began under Old Master Cheng’s seat.

“May your happiness be as immense as the East Sea, and may you live as long as the Zhongnan Mountains. I hereby present a set of ink treasures.”

“May the sun and moon prosper and the pine cranes live forever. This is a gift I prepared for you.”

“I hope you…”

There were many people invited to this banquet, but the people who stood up to give their blessings were all famous figures in the circle. Moreover, they were all arranged to be seated near the Old Master.

Nan Qiao sat obediently beside her Big Brother. As she watched everyone present their birthday gifts as if they were presenting treasures, she suddenly remembered the black antique that she had found previously. It looked like a qilin.

She had never liked to be high-profile. She would send it up after the banquet ended.

This time, it was rare for Old Master Cheng to hold a grand birthday banquet, so the gifts everyone could give were either rare or priceless. It could be said that they had given him enough face. Old Master Cheng seemed to be very happy, and he was a little happy talking to everyone.

Luo Wanbai sat in the seat that she had painstakingly obtained, holding an exquisitely wrapped gift box in her hand.

Inside was the painting she had s.n.a.t.c.hed from Nan Qiao. It was the 87 Immortals’ Scroll that was worth 20 million yuan.

In order to gain Old Master Cheng’s favor, Luo Wanbai had put in a lot of effort.

Seeing that no one stood up to offer their gifts, Luo Wanbai took a deep breath and mustered up her courage to stand up.

In an instant, many gazes landed on her.

“I wish you happiness and well-being, Grandpa Cheng.”

Luo Wanbai stood up and spoke in a natural and unrestrained manner. She was completely different from the person Nan Qiao had just seen.

Old Master Cheng looked up at Luo Wanbai. She didn’t look familiar to him. He guessed that she was a junior from some family, so he responded calmly.

Soon after, everyone’s attention was attracted by the exquisite box that Luo Wanbai took out.

“This is my carefully prepared birthday gift for you, the 87 Immortals’ Scroll.”

As soon as this name came out, it instantly caused a commotion.

“The 87 Immortals’ Scroll?! Is it what I think it is?!”

“She’s actually so generous…”

Everyone’s exclamations fell into Luo Wanbai’s ears, causing her to look a little smug. However, she didn’t notice the inexplicable change in Old Master Cheng’s expression when he heard the name of the present..
