"You're the one with buck teeth, your whole family has buck teeth!" Zhao Xiaobai retorted as soon as she heard those words, spun around and quickly yanked Yuanya's mask off her face. She then yelled at the bystanders, "Have you ever seen such buck teeth!?"
After getting a good look at Yuanya's face, Bei Yunhuan slightly raised his hand.
The surroundings immediately became quiet, no one dared to say another word.
At the moment, Zhao Xiaobai was caught in the heat of anger. She thought her strong stance had stunned them all into silence.
When she saw that the crowd had kept their mouths shut, she turned her cannon at Lu Jie.
"This woman claims she's your girlfriend. What about Ya Ya? If you have any balls left, Lu Jie, speak up!"
The girlfriend he genuinely liked on one hand, and Wei Yurou who could bring actual benefits to the Lu Family on the other.
Lu Jie was unsure how to respond to Zhao Xiaobai's words.
"Girlfriend? Her?"
Wei Yurou visibly sensed his hesitance and spoke disdainfully.
She turned her gaze towards Lu Jie, "It's been over a year. You haven't even kissed, let alone slept together. Do you call this a girlfriend? Lu Jie, are you playing house? Or maybe, you are just not a man at all!"
Immediately, Lu Jie's face turned awfully sour.
Indeed, Yuanya's reservation for not sleeping with him was one thing. However, she wouldn't even kiss! What's all this about?
His gaze toward Yuanya suddenly changed. Just look at the places she's mingling in now!
She even blended into the Imperial Court, could it be that she's looking for someone wealthier?
Once the thought sprung up, he couldn't get rid of it.
Lu Jie was glaring at Yuanya intensely. Previously, he thought she was purely shy. But now, he considered that she may have found him neither sufficiently wealthy nor influential. This is why she would not even consent to a kiss!
Zhao Xiaobai was nearly spitting blood from her rage against Wei Yurou's shamelessness.
"Get lost! What nonsense are you talking about! Ya Ya is not that kind of person!" At this moment, she felt Yuanya tug her hand with two strong pulls.
"Ya Ya? What's wrong..."
As Zhao Xiaobai turned around, she discovered a tall man, who appeared out of nowhere, was standing right behind them!
She was instantly taken aback. Upon recognition of the man's face, she was left utterly speechless.
Unbothered by his surroundings, Bei Yunhuan stood there, scrutinizing Yuanya minutely.
She was exceptionally delicate and petite, her height only touching his shoulders. Even in oversized clothes, she exhibited an aura of frailty.
Her long eyelashes fluttered enticingly, her exceptionally elegant nose, especially her attractive lips, frustrated him to desire. Even when she wasn't smiling, her lips appeared oh so rosy and tender.
He wondered if they tasted as appealing as they looked.
Bei Yunhuan's gaze shifted back to Lu Jie, his facial expression revealed no sign of peculiarity. He asked calmly, "Really, no kiss yet?"
His voice was as smooth as silk, slightly husky, charming yet enchanting. Except for the subject matter at hand which was rather uncanny.
Lu Jie recognized Bei Yunhuan at a glance. He spared no moment in thought and immediately replied, "No!"
Wei Yurou, standing to the side, had widened her eyes from the shock; what's happening? Why would Mr. Yunhuan ask such a question?
Could it be….. No! That can't be possible!
Satisfied with the response, Bei Yunhuan turned his attention back to Yuanya, regarding her with renewed interest.
