I Want a Lifetime with You novel Chapter 232

“But…” Shi Wei still couldn’t contain her anger. Although she was now famous, she didn’t expect it to be for the wrong reasons. It was definitely unacceptable for someone as vain as she was. It was made worse by the fact that Shi Nuan was there too.

Shi Wei looked in Shi Nuan’s direction and saw that she was chatting with the guy seated next to her. Her eyes flashed as she took out her phone and took a few pictures of them.

Just then, Su Su glanced at Shi Wei and asked, “What are you doing?”

“Nothing!” Shi Wei then kept her phone and looked in Song Jingyu’s direction instead. “Who is she really?”

“Didn’t you hear her call for Fu Chengyan’s parents just now? If my guess is correct, she is likely the daughter of Fu Chengyan’s uncle, Song Jingyu.”

“Song Jingyu!” Shi Wei grit her teeth and seared the name into her memory. She was definitely going to pay her back for the humiliation that she had felt today.

 

“You should just endure it first. Besides, Fu Chengyan didn’t really say anything much. It appears that he doesn’t really fancy Song Jingyu too!”

“Are you serious?” Shi Wei’s eyes sparkled. “If that’s the case, then there’s really nothing for her to be happy about.”

 

“Yes, so you don’t have to take it personally. Now is not a good time. Don’t fret about it; we’ll get our chances soon.”

On the stage, Mai Qi made a short introduction and said, “Now, let us welcome our host for tonight, Ms. Song Jingyu, to come up the stage.”

Song Jingyu was back to her usual poise and elegance after the earlier episode. Regardless of whether she was taught by Song Zhenyan or the Song family itself, she had been exposed to such occasions countless times, and it would be a walk in the park for her.

The pink mermaid gown that she was wearing looked absolutely stunning. The slight train of the gown was designed to mimic the glittering scales, and they sparkled as the lights shone on them. Ignoring the fact how Song Jingyu had lost her composure when she attacked Shi Wei just now, she actually looked picture-perfect.

When she realized that she had managed to capture everyone’s attention, she arrogantly lifted the train of her dress as she proceeded up the stage. She did not look the part of being tonight’s host, instead, she looked like she was going on stage to receive an award.

Song Jingyu looked proudly in Fu Chengyan’s direction, and her eyes were filled with delight. Although Fu Chengyan was looking back at her, his eyes did not carry any similar sense of delight, and neither was he impressed. He just watched her without any emotion. It was no different from when he was watching some other random person.

Song Jingyu’s hand, which was holding her dress, paused for a brief moment. However, she quickly recovered her composure and ascended the stage elegantly. She took over the microphone from Mai Qi upon reaching the stage. “Good evening everyone, I’m Song Jingyu.”

The audience erupted into applause while some even whistled.

“I believe everyone is looking forward to tonight’s event. To be honest, so am I…”

Song Jingyu continued talking. In reality, she was a beautiful lady indeed. Or else she wouldn’t have been taken in by her mother’s old flame. It appeared that she took on all the grace and poise her mother had. When she wasn’t throwing a tantrum, she looked absolutely normal and beautiful, even.

In comparison to the female stars from Xinhuang, Song Jingyu was not at any disadvantage at all. In fact, she was even prettier than some of them. No wonder she was full of self-confidence and was sure that Fu Chengyan would definitely fall for her.

Shi Nuan watched Song Jingyu from below the stage and admired her for her beauty. She, too, felt that Song Jingyu was very pretty.

Even Yuan Jia was dumbstruck by her looks. “I didn’t expect her to be so gorgeous.”

“Exactly!” Shi Nuan nodded. However, she became curious when she noticed that Lin Yu wasn’t really paying any attention to Song Jingyu. “Mr. Lin, don’t you think that she is pretty?”

“That’s just being superficial!” Lin Yu didn’t even bother raising his head. “I think you’re better looking when compared to her,” Lin Yu replied as he seemed to be chatting with someone on the phone.

Shi Nuan couldn’t help but smile when she heard him praise her. “Thanks for your compliments, Mr. Lin.” Shi Nuan tried to sneak a glimpse on Lin Yu’s screen and was pleasantly shocked to see that he was chatting with Su Yian.”

Lin Yu calmly turned his phone to a different angle when he felt that Shi Nuan was trying to steal a glance. After that, Shi Nuan could no longer see what was on his screen. He smiled at her, “Trying to steal a glance isn’t polite, you know.”

Shi Nuan raised her eyebrows. “You’re right. But…Yian is a wonderful girl!”

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard her reply as he pinched his forehead. “It’s tiring to talk to someone who’s too intelligent!”

Shi Nuan laughed as she nodded. “Then I won’t ask you about it!”
