As Lin Yuexi approached, the crowd conscientiously parted to create a path.
Gu Xinzhou noticed the crowd in front of her gradually dispersing.
When it cleared before her, she clearly saw Lin Yuexi walking towards her.
She quickly moved to the side, joining everyone else in stepping back.
However, when Lin Yuexi reached her and stood still, he didn't move.
He seemed very nervous, the form-fitting suit accentuating the obvious rise and fall of his chest.
A pair of amber eyes were fixed on Gu Xinzhou's youthful face.
Mustering his courage, he smiled and bent slightly towards her direction, extending his hand, "Beautiful Miss Gu, may I have the honor of dancing with you?"
All around, countless guests gasped!
Zhuang Xiuya and her daughter were shocked by the turn of events before them!
Zhuang Xiuya immediately waved towards Lin Yuexi, "Yuexi!"
Gu Xinfei swiftly grabbed hold of her!
Zhuang Xiuya looked at her daughter in astonishment, her eyes filled with urgent concern!
Gu Xinfei coolly whispered, "Perhaps they have thought of a better way to utterly disgrace Zhouzhou, let's quietly observe the changes first."
Zhuang Xiuya thought about it and felt her daughter made sense.
Otherwise, everything was fine just moments ago; it couldn't have changed instantaneously!
Not far off, someone whispered in amazement, "Heavens! Song Zhen just completed the acquisition of 421 companies in Europe and has now become the world's richest man!"
In today's world of advanced communication, such news would automatically pop up on smartphones.
But that person's voice wasn't loud, and it didn't cause a stir.
Moreover, almost everyone was still absorbed in shock at Lin Yuexi's actions.
However, soon some people came to a realization.
After all, Lin Yuexi had a bad reputation, falling for one person after another, never showing lasting affection for anyone.
Daughters of respectable families seldom enter into relationships with him.
So, if the other party is Gu Xinzhou, a scheming, venomous, and vain illegitimate daughter, then it wouldn't be surprising.
Everyone had myriad thoughts, silently watching the spectacle unfold before them with the air of spectators at a fascinating play.
Gu Xinzhou was very calm.
Her clear eyes were as serene as the profound sea.
Gu Yibo rarely saw such an expression in his daughter's eyes.
He knew that only after experiencing much would one develop such a gaze.
Yet his daughter had merely lived independently abroad for a while.
Had her work at the television station facilitated her rapid growth?
"I apologize," Gu Xinzhou's voice was as charming as a nightingale, yet her tone was extremely cold, "I have no wish to dance with you!"
Zhuang Xiuya could no longer hold back.
Pointing towards Gu Xinzhou, she cursed loudly, "Being asked to dance with you is a privilege!
Have you become so fat that it even makes you breathless!
You really are an ingrate!"
This abrupt outburst seized everyone's attention in an instant.
The crowd turned their eyes towards Zhuang Xiuya!
A look of smug triumph spread across Zhuang Xiuya's face.
She then signaled Mrs. Lin with a glance.
Meaning, why wait for anyone to dance with anyone else, why not now!
Let's join forces now and send this detestable bastard daughter to hell!
What was intriguing was that even after Mrs. Lin caught her glance, she only diverted her eyes indifferently and showed no reaction.
She had just begun the dance with Lin Jinluan.
Lin Jinluan whispered in her ear, "Gu Xinfei is the fake! Gu Yibo's real daughter is only Gu Xinzhou! That's why all plans for today have been called off!"
However, Mrs. Lin wasn't privy to the details.
She thought, if Gu Xinfei isn't Gu Yibo's daughter, doesn't that mean Zhuang Xiuya cheated on Gu Yibo?
