Chapter 110 Does my status as an illegitimate child bother you a lot?
"Wouldn't that be perfect? Let's find a chance to splash her with water and see if her two little cherries on her chest are really as beautiful as the rumors say..."
"I knew you'd had your eye on her for a while, hadn't I?"
"Go away, she's a socialite, a piece of trash that's been used up. I wouldn't sleep with her even if she begged me."
The blunt and vulgar words made Lin Sui stop in his tracks and clench his fists tightly.
She knew that Lu Xiang, who seemed capricious, wasn't as glamorous as she appeared on the surface.
But why?
Why should she be slandered and subjected to malicious rumors simply because she is an illegitimate child?
Noticing her unusual mood, Lu Xiang, who had intended to ignore her, darkened her eyes and had no choice but to stop.
"Why aren't you leaving?" she asked Lin Sui, turning back with a calm expression, as if she hadn't heard those offensive words at all.
This attitude surprised Lin Sui, whose anger was surging: "Aren't you angry?"
When others mock her, Lu Xiang always steps in to defend her, so why is she so indifferent when it comes to herself?
"Why should I be angry?" Lu Xiang tilted her head, looking puzzled. "If that's all it takes to get angry, then wouldn't I be turning into a giant balloon every day?"
"Or is it..." She narrowed her cat-like eyes, looking at Lin Sui dangerously, "that my status as an illegitimate child bothers you a lot?"
Lin Sui shuddered and shook her head repeatedly: "Of course not."
"Hmph." Lu Xiang raised her chin. "You're smart to know what's good for you."
She wasn't afraid to let Lin Sui know her identity because she already trusted Lin Sui completely.
She firmly believed that Lin Sui was different from those people, just as she firmly believed that the sun, which never changes, would rise as usual every day.
It was very noisy on the other side of the screen, and no one noticed the person in the conversation, continuing to tease him without restraint.
"I used to like her because she seemed so gentle and delicate, but I heard she was really fierce on the show. Tsk, what a pity."
"What's there to regret? Maybe it'll be even more exciting this way?"
"Hahaha, that's true. But I've seen her getting quite close to that guy Si Xingran before, and now they're on a variety show together. Do you think they might have been dating all along?"
Lin Sui's anger, which had just subsided because of Lu Xiang, boiled over again.
Her carefully protected and cherished friends should not be humiliated like this.
However, the angrier she became, the calmer she appeared: "No matter what, you are still a child of the Lu family. Their insults to you are tantamount to insulting the Lu family. Aren't they afraid of offending the Lu family?"
"Pfft!" Lu Xiang laughed, as if laughing at her naivety.
She lightly touched her red lips with her pale pink fingertips and asked with a soft laugh, "Guess who spread the rumor that I'm a socialite?"
Lin Sui was taken aback.
"Of course, it's my gentle and generous mother who can even accept me, the daughter born to a mistress." Lu Xiang rolled her long hair over her shoulders and smiled happily. "Speaking of which, I learned my excellent tea ceremony skills from her."
Lin Sui was at a loss for words.
She glanced unconsciously at Si Xingran beside her, whose eyebrows were drooping and who merely gave a mocking laugh when she was mentioned. She suddenly realized that there were some things that they didn't not care about, but rather that they didn't have the means to care.
Even if they now have the ability to resist, they have long since become numb and accustomed to it over the years, day after day.
They gradually stopped hoping that someone would stand up for them, so they became too lazy to pay attention to them one by one.
But that was before.
Now they have it.
A cold glint flashed in Lin Sui's eyes. While silently apologizing to Grandpa Yu, she raised her foot and kicked over the screen in front of her.
With a loud bang, the screen smashed directly onto the heads of the scum sitting inside, eliciting screams from all sides.
Such a commotion naturally attracted the attention of other guests, and also made the Yu family grandfather and grandson, who were surrounded by admirers, turn their heads to look.
The collapsed screen was particularly striking, leaving a vacuum in that area.
The girl, with her back to the crowd, looked thin and small, yet possessed a dignified aura.
"It seems someone has upset your squad leader. Go and take a look." Old Master Yu said with a smile.
Yu Cinian smiled and said, "That's really too blind. Grandpa, you two chat first, I'll be right back."
After he walked away, Yu Tianlang frowned and said unhappily, "Dad, this is your birthday banquet. This friend, Anian, is really too inappropriate."
"Hey, he's just a kid, what's wrong with him?" The old man waved his hand dismissively and then called to his group of old friends, "It's alright, let's talk."
He was clearly favoring Lin Sui, which meant favoring Yu Cinian. Yu Tianlang's expression darkened, and he said nothing more.
In fact, he put it rather tactfully.
The onlookers, however, were far less polite.
"Where did this wild girl come from? Not only is she dressed haphazardly, but she also openly caused trouble at someone else's birthday banquet. She has absolutely no manners."
"Is she a temporary helper hired by the Yu family?"
People in high society are busy socializing and have no time to watch variety shows, so naturally they don't know Lin Sui.
As they were discussing, one of them suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Look, the young master of the Yu family is here. This maid's life is in danger."
Then it was seen that wherever Yu Cinian went, a path automatically parted.
He quickly walked up behind Lin Sui, but simply stood aside, smiling and asking, "Squad leader, do you need my help?"
The guests, who were waiting to see a good show, were all confused: "???" What??
The people trapped under the heavy screen were still struggling to climb out.
Lin Sui watched coldly, without turning her head: "No need."
After finally managing to climb out, the group of spoiled young men were covered in grime.
They were so angry they were about to unleash a torrent of curses, but the moment they turned and saw Si Xingran and Lu Xiang, they fell silent as chickens.
Lin Sui found it both laughable and puzzling.
They were clearly wary and afraid, so why did they dare to spout nonsense behind their backs?
Is it because no one is backing Lu Xiang up?
Lin Sui glanced at the face of the person who was shouting the loudest and said indifferently, "If you don't want your shameful deeds to be exposed, apologize to Lu Xiang immediately."
Although the man felt guilty, he was even more unwilling to admit his mistake, so he stubbornly argued, "We didn't do anything. Didn't you start this trouble?"
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Lin Sui didn't waste any words. Her clear voice resounded throughout the surroundings, "Your stepmother is pregnant. The child is yours, but this child is destined to be unhappy."
"You contracted HIV because of promiscuity."
