Reborn Aristocrat: Oppressing

She was a little drunk, but definitely not as drunk as she appeared.

She just wanted Gu Xin and Di An to spend more time together. She could not tell Gu Xin directly that she should be with Di An, so she had to create more opportunities for them. Of course, she knew that it would not do much, but it was better than doing nothing.

With that thought in mind, she headed to the washroom.

She had just left a long corridor when she turned right and saw a familiar figure.

That person saw her too.

Their eyes met.

The other party suddenly smiled. “Sister Manman, you’re here too? What a coincidence.”

Lu Manman looked at Mo Li.

She was in a white dress, and her long hair was draped over her shoulders. Her obedient demeanor was out of place here.

“Why are you here?”

“My brother is here to celebrate his last bachelorhood. I’m coming over to sit for a while, but I’ll be leaving soon. I’m not really comfortable staying in a place like this.” Mo Li explained with a smile and then sweetly asked, “Do you want to go to my brother’s private room? I can take you there.”

“No need. I have friends over there. I just wanted to take a breather.”

“I’ll go in first then.” Mo Li smiled and left.

Lu Manman kept her gaze on Mo Li’s back as she walked off. She was so slender and fair, like a fragile woman who would break at the slightest touch. She naturally gave men a strong desire to protect her. In this warm and complicated world, she was like a clear spring that soothed the heart.

Such a woman…

She turned around.

The moment she turned around, she saw Ye Heng.

Ye Heng was standing at a corner of the corridor, smoking a cigarette. He was looking at her with interest.

She furrowed her brows. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“How am I looking at you? You make it sound so ambiguous. Ah Xiu would kill me,” Ye Heng deliberately said as he put out his cigarette.

Lu Manman ignored him.

“By the way, do you want to take a seat in Ah Xiu’s private room?” Ye Heng asked.

“No.”

“Aren’t you curious about who’s in the room?”

“I’m not curious,” Lu Manman said directly.

Ye Heng smiled meaningfully as he shook his head.

Lu Manman frowned as she watched him leave. She then headed to the washroom.

She walked around for a while before pushing open the door.

She had to admit that walking a little while when she was about to get drunk really took her mind off things.

When she opened the door, she saw Di An and Gu Xin drinking.

Actually, they were not drinking together.

When Di An drank, Gu Xin would hold her glass. When she drank, he would pour another drink for her. There was no chemistry between the two of them…

Lu Manman sighed and sat down.

Gu Xin looked at her unhappily. “Where did you go?”

“…” Did she look like she had been fooling around outside?!

“You only came back after we have drunk so much. Are you getting married, or am I? You have no self-awareness!” Gu Xin whined.

“Let’s take it as a celebration for you in advance,” Lu Manman said matter-of-factly.

Gu Xin was about to vomit blood.

How did she and Lu Manman become best friends?!

“Alright, alright, let’s continue drinking. We have to go back before ten. Otherwise, we really can’t hold the wedding tomorrow.”
