Evershining Stars, Everlasting Love novel Chapter 15

I could feel Kun Ouyang and Qi Ouyang were staring at me with undisguised contempt, and I felt embarrassed under their questioning gaze, but there was nothing I could do but to stand there still.

I knew it was not a good idea for me to come to this occasion, but Vince insisted that I should come. Now, my presence was awkward, and my mood was totally ruined.

Vince placed his hand on my shoulder and pressed down hard. He then put a sly smile on his face, looked at Jerry and said: “It seems like Mr Lu couldn’t even tell the beauty from the ugliness. I guess I always need to think twice before doing business with you.”

Kun echoed what he said. “Yes! Vince is correct!”

Jerry didn’t expect Vince would react so strongly and so fast. Not only did he lose face in front of Ouyang Family, but he lost a good opportunity in business. He explained in a hurry: “Me and Nance broke up peacefully. She is a wonderful woman.”

“The fact that she is a wonderful woman further proves that you are a terrible man.” Vince looked at Jerry coldly. His presence was so commanding that Jerry was soon intimated into silence.

Then there was an awkward silence. Kun dispelled the silence by giving a hearty laugh . He said to Vince: “Vince, come to my study, we need to talk about that piece of land on the east side of the city.”

“Fine.” Vince said. He then leaned towards me and whispered: “Find a quiet place and eat something. I’ll be back soon.”

I nodded. He released my hand and followed Kun.

I wanted to go to a corner, but Qi stopped me when she saw Vince was gone. She said: “Miss Mo, I want to talk with you.”

I nodded. I knew what she wanted to talk with me. Her eyes betrayed her thoughts completely. She loves Vince. Vince is handsome and rich and powerful, and that’s why many women in that party wanted to get close to him. I could almost feel their envious stares upon me.
