Reborn Aristocrat: Oppressing

Lu Manman rolled her eyes. This woman was relentless with her words.

“You only invited the two of us?” Gu Xin asked.

“Who else do you think I can call?” Lu Manman asked.

“Where’s Mo Yuanxiu?”

“He has a bachelor party too.”

“Aren’t you afraid that he’ll take advantage of the party tonight?”

“I’m used to it anyway,” Lu Manman said matter-of-factly.

Gu Xin was confused. “I don’t understand why you married him.”

“It’s better than marrying Wen Yun.”

“But I just can’t accept it. You were so deeply in love with Wen Yun, and now you’re telling me you want to marry Mo Yuanxiu. I’ve been thinking if something went wrong with your head. What if you regret it one day?!”

“Isn’t this much alcohol enough to stuff your mouth?!” Lu Manman snapped.

Gu Xin pouted and poured herself a huge glass. “Come on, bride-to-be. Congratulations. May you have a blissful marriage and have a child soon.”

She sounded so strange.

Lu Manman did not bother to chide her.

The three of them started drinking again.

From the beginning to the end, Di An and Gu Xin did not interact much. They did not even have a drink together.

Lu Manman actually did not have a good tolerance for alcohol. She only had a few sips before she felt a little tipsy.

She got off the couch in a daze and headed out of the private room.

Gu Xin looked at her stumbling around and wanted to follow her. She was such a beautiful woman. It would be strange if she was not taken advantage of at such a place!

“She’ll be fine here,” Di An said suddenly.

Gu Xin turned to look at him.

“The boss here is Ye Heng, and he has a good relationship with Mo Yuanxiu. Lu Manman can do whatever she wants here.” Di An explained.

“How did you know?” Gu Xin asked.

Wasn’t Di An the sort of person who did not care about external affairs and focused solely on his photography?

How did he know so much and sound so sure about it?

Even if she knew that the boss of this place was Ye Heng and that Ye Heng and Mo Yuanxiu were on good terms, she would not dare to say it out loud. Lu Manman was deliberately doing whatever she wanted here, but who knew how close Ye Heng and Mo Yuanxiu were? Sometimes, a drinking friend was the most unreliable friend to have.

“I just happened to hear about it.” Di An picked up his glass and took two sips.

Gu Xin frowned as she watched Lu Manman leave.

Lu Manman had always handled matters with propriety. Hence, she was starting to suspect that she had deliberately gone out to create some space for her and Di An to spend time alone. She was not that stupid, but she just did not like to think too much as it was too tiring. What she could not figure out was that Lu Manman’s actions during this period of time seemed to be helping her and Di An get together. She knew very well that there was no way she and Di An could develop further!

“Do you want a drink?” Di An suddenly asked.

Gu Xin snapped out of her daze and looked at Di An’s blushing face. “You can hold your liquor just a little better than Manman.”

He shouldn’t talk about drinking with someone who would not get drunk!

The consequences were not what he wanted.

“I’ll drink as much as I can.” Di An did not care.

Gu Xin and Di An started drinking.

Actually, they were just drinking. They did not talk much, nor did they interact much. It was as if they were solely drinking the whole time.

As they drank, they alleviated the awkward atmosphere.

…

Lu Manman left the private room and took a deep breath.
