Chapter 111 Lost to an Illegitimate Daughter
Su Yuchen shook his head as he looked at Mo Peichen, who immediately begged for mercy.
Mo Peichen is used to being unruly and no one can control him. Now it seems that letting him spend more time with Yun Yao is not a bad thing.
In the future, when he goes on strike, he can bring up Yun Yao's name.
If Mo Peichen knew what Su Yuchen was thinking, he would surely vomit blood.
This is a classic case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!
The atmosphere among the three of them was quite harmonious. It was rare for Yun Yao to accept a man who was... extremely unkempt in such a short time. She attributed all of this to the fact that Mo Peichen was someone she had kidnapped! In other words, he was one of her own.
None of the group, chatting and laughing, noticed that Bu Lanying, who was sitting at the head of the table, hurriedly left...
With so many people around, Yun Yao, who always preferred peace and quiet, quickly grew impatient. She glanced at Su Yuchen and asked directly, "When are you leaving?"
Su Yuchen could see Yun Yao's irritability, but the person he was waiting for had not yet arrived.
"I'll have Mo Peichen take you back."
Yun Yao waved her hand casually, glancing at Su Yuchen's feet. A large wooden box appeared on the ground, startling Mo Peichen, who quickly lifted his foot.
When did this appear?
While Mo Peichen was still in shock, he heard Yun Yao's slightly lazy voice: "I saw that you came empty-handed, and that kid Chen Dong didn't come with you either. It's better not to make things too awkward in a big occasion. You might need this gift. Also, you don't need to give it to me. I don't think Mo Peichen wants to be alone with me."
After Yun Yao finished speaking, she stood up and left without waiting for Su Yuchen to speak.
Her silhouette was graceful and charming, exuding elegance with every sway.
As Su Yuchen watched Yun Yao's departing figure, his hands, which were resting on his knees, gradually tightened.
"Su Yuchen, what is this?" Mo Peichen asked, reaching for the box on the ground.
"Mo Peichen," Su Yuchen suddenly spoke up.
Mo Peichen paused, and seeing his displeased expression, had no choice but to stop.
"What's wrong with you? After spending the night together, I feel that Yun Yao isn't without her merits. You've been single for so long, why don't you consider dating her..." Mo Peichen's tone rose, his eyes full of expectation.
"Mo Peichen, are you bored?" Su Yuchen glared at him, her expression darkening slightly.
Mo Peichen then calmed down, wondering what Su Yuchen was thinking. He was fine before, so why did he suddenly put on that deadpan expression after Yun Yao left?
Little did anyone know, Su Yuchen was now somewhat conflicted.
He glanced at the absence of the head of the household, then looked towards the entrance.
In the end, he chose to wait for that person with ulterior motives over sending Yun Yao home.
Mo Peichen stood beside Su Yuchen, dejected.
Sigh, nobody did anything to offend this guy, so what's got him so angry about? It's making it really unbearable for me sitting next to him!
The surrounding temperature dropped to freezing, and Mo Peichen unconsciously tightened his coat and moved to the side.
As soon as Yun Yao left, the noble ladies and women in the room began to whisper among themselves, glancing at Su Yuchen every now and then.
Bai Mengyan walked towards the two of them with elegant and proud steps, her gaze falling calmly on Mo Peichen.
"Brother Chen, may I sit here? I'm wearing a dress today, so it's a bit inconvenient to sit on a high stool." Bai Mengyan smiled slightly, her every move revealing her elegant demeanor.
Mo Peichen was Su Yuchen's childhood friend, so he was very familiar with his "childhood sweetheart". With the intention of watching the fun and making things more interesting, Mo Peichen got up and asked Bai Mengyan for the seat between him and Su Yuchen.
Bai Mengyan nodded slightly in thanks and sat down at a leisurely pace.
"You guys chat, I have something to do," Mo Peichen said, then turned and left.
As he reached the corner, he leaned back for another look.
Tsk tsk tsk, Yu Chen, tell me how charming you are. First, there was the ancient tree spirit who had a scandal with you, and now the number one socialite in the capital is still hung up on you.
You're such a blockhead! That's incredibly unreasonable!
Don't like tree spirits? Then try this one! The dream girl of countless men!
"Yu Chen, is this a gift you prepared for Grandma Bu?" Because the atmosphere around Su Yu Chen was too oppressive, Bai Mengyan finally managed to find a topic to talk about.
Su Yuchen ignored her completely, not even giving Bai Mengyan a glance.
Despite being a favored daughter of heaven, Bai Mengyan repeatedly encountered setbacks in front of Su Yuchen, which undoubtedly made her heart even more insane and twisted.
Bai Mengyan took a deep breath and said gently, "Yu Chen, we haven't eaten together in a long time. How about tomorrow? Let's book the local restaurant we loved to eat at when we were kids."
Su Yuchen then glanced at Bai Mengyan, but his unfathomable eyes were filled with indifference.
"Sorry, I don't have time."
Bai Mengyan gripped the hem of her dress tightly with her fingers. Her captivating peach blossom eyes, which were full of endless charm, showed a hint of disappointment, but she quickly recovered.
"Alright, when you have time, let's get together, including Miss Yun." Bai Mengyan brought up Yun Yao.
Upon hearing the words "Miss Yun," Su Yuchen's expression subtly changed. Although it was a very small change, Bai Mengyan still noticed it.
"Okay, let's talk about it another day." A reply that was both polite and distant.
Jealousy can distort a person's appearance, so Bai Mengyan could only nod with a smile. For a moment, she wished she could tear Yun Yao to pieces.
"Yu Chen, Grandma Bu used to tell me that your future wife would be a young lady from such-and-such family, but I never expected that you would choose Yun Yao in the end. It's really unexpected." Bai Mengyan said while carefully examining Su Yu Chen.
Unfortunately, she was going to be disappointed. Apart from the slight change just now, Su Yuchen's expression remained completely unchanged.
"Hmm." That was all he replied with.
Bai Mengyan's expression was on the verge of breaking down, and she was in immense inner turmoil.
Su Yuchen, I once thought you only cared about your career, so I could wait no matter what others said, because I knew that among all the women in the capital, none could catch your eye, and none were qualified to stand by your side.
But now, you've disappointed me so much.
When Yun Yao was there, she could see clearly that Su Yuchen was not so distant. He would occasionally join Yun Yao and Mo Peichen's conversation, and his gaze would intentionally or unintentionally fall on Yun Yao.
Su Yuchen, if you could give me half the same attitude you have towards Yun Yao, I wouldn't be so disappointed.
However, if I just walk away like this, I don't know when I'll be able to sit next to him again.
Even though she was unwilling, Bai Mengyan suppressed her pride and poured Su Yuchen a cup of tea.
"I heard that this is the Snow Bud tea that Master Su searched for a long time. I have tasted it, and its flavor is so pleasant and refreshing. It deserves the title of the king of teas."
Bai Mengyan presented the food to Su Yuchen, her eyes filled with admiration and adoration.
Many people noticed Bai Mengyan's action and shook their heads.
They were currently at the banquet, unaware of the "excitement" that had erupted outside due to the news of Su Yuchen and Yun Yao's marriage. Bai Mengyan was truly pitiful; the title of the third young mistress of the Su family should have been hers, but how did it get snatched away by some unknown pheasant?
Many people sympathized with Bai Mengyan, who actually lost to an illegitimate daughter!
