Chu Mei looked at everyone in shock. Her makeup was already ruined, and everyone looked at her as if she was a clown.
On the other hand, Shen Lu was actually looking at her with disdain.
Why?! He clearly relied on others to climb up the ranks, so why did he feel that he was nobler?
The more Chu Mei thought about it, the angrier she became. After she grabbed her skirt tightly and staggered to her feet, she pointed at Shen Lu with her red-manicured finger.
"You're just a kept man. Do you think Yuan Shu will help you just because you helped her?"
Shi Lu felt some pity for her.
Zhao Mian stood at the side and waited until Chu Mei finished venting. Then, she said coldly, "This is our family's Second Young Master, Shi Lu. Miss Chu, please don't spout nonsense."
Chu Mei froze on the spot and didn't know how to react.
There was mockery and contempt in the eyes of the surrounding people. Every sneer was enough to crush her.
