A wealthy family recognizes my relatives? But I am already a billionaire.

The banquet venue was a private estate, and someone was strictly checking the invitations at the entrance.

For this private banquet, each invitation letter limits the number of hosts, accompanying guests and accompanying personnel.

Xu Youyou also saw the inspector stretch out his hand and count the number of people in their group.

Even though it was something that could be counted at a glance, they insisted on counting on their fingers. Because of this, Xu Youyou's stereotype that Americans were not good at arithmetic was further deepened.

The car passed the inspection smoothly and drove into the manor smoothly.

Xu Youyou soon understood Assistant Liu's words, because just as the car stopped in front of the main banquet building, a young girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a black high-slit dress, came jogging over with her skirt lifted.

"Lu, you're finally here!"

As soon as Lu Jingyao got off the car, the young girl rushed into her arms.

Xu Youyou thought to herself that she was so lucky, but the next second Lu Jingyao took a step to the side, then quickly walked around to the other side of the car and opened Xu Youyou's door.

Xu Youyou faced the hand that Lu Jingyao stretched out, and stared at the blonde girl's eyes not far away, muttering to herself "just playing around", but finally covered it with her hand.

"Lu, is she your girlfriend?" the blonde girl asked with a persistent look on her face.

"She is my lover, Xu Youyou." Lu Jingyao answered the blonde girl in English.

Xu Youyou was so scared that she let out a deafening cough.

Lu Jingyao gave Xu Youyou a warning look. Xu Youyou could only comfort herself in her heart that it was all for money. Then she took the fake boyfriend's arm and pretended to be affectionate.

The blonde girl glared at Xu Youyou fiercely, then walked up to her and said, "So what if you are Lu's lover now? You are not married yet, so even if you get married it's no big deal."

She didn't know whether to lament the foreigners' boldness in provoking her in front of her real girlfriend, or lament their low moral bottom line.

Lu Jingyao inadvertently revealed a hint of disgust, but quickly concealed it.

"Ms. Shirley, we Chinese have always been extremely loyal to our partners. I will not betray my lover because of you." Lu Jingyao said.

Xu Youyou cooperated and acted touched, as if she was really Lu Jingyao's lover.

Shirley obviously didn't understand the superficiality of the situation. Seeing the two of them looking at each other affectionately, her eyes were spitting fire.

If someone who doesn't know the situation saw this, they might think she was the queen.

"What's her family background? Can she compare to mine? My father said that as long as you are willing to marry me, the entire Shirelle family will belong to our children in the future." Shirelle stomped her feet.

Xu Youyou raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that this was a rich lady who came with a generous dowry.

An ordinary man would be ecstatic to hear this, but Lu Jingyao frowned and said, "I don't need to take advantage of women."

Xi Ruier opened her mouth to explain, but Lu Jingyao's eyes were already very unfriendly.

Suddenly, a European or American old man in his sixties walked out from behind her. Although he was wearing a well-tailored suit, the fierce aura from his body was still very obvious.

"Anna, don't be rude to the guests!" said the old man.

His eyes swept across Lu Jingyao and then fell on Xu Youyou beside him. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he asked with a smile, "This mysterious oriental beauty must be Lu's friend?"

Lu Jingyao nodded slightly and introduced to Xu Youyou: "This is Mr. Schiller, Miss Schiller's father, Mr. Frank Schiller."

The old man smiled and said, "You can just call me Frank. As you Chinese say, you two are a perfect match made in heaven. Please come in. There are many people here waiting to greet you."

Frank personally led Lu Jingyao and Xu Youyou to the banquet hall. He looked like a kind and amiable person, but Xu Youyou always felt that he was more like a "smiling tiger". Xu Youyou also didn't like the way he looked at her, and she never dared to completely let down her guard.

Lu Jingyao pretended to be extremely close to Xu Youyou in public, but as soon as there were fewer people watching him, he immediately distanced himself from Xu Youyou.

Xu Youyou had lived two lives, and in this one she only wanted to live happily, so she didn't hold back, but asked directly: "Mr. Lu, am I a dirty thing? You seem to be avoiding me."

Lu Jingyao frowned slightly and said directly, "Ms. Xu, I just hope that there will be no unnecessary misunderstandings between us."

Xu Youyou almost laughed out loud when she heard this. She turned around and stared at him with a surprised look in her eyes: "Mr. Lu, what could I possibly misunderstand? Could it be that I misunderstood that you are actually a charming and romantic man? And not a poor wretch who can't find a female companion and has to rely on passersby for help?"

When Lu Jingyao heard this, his face turned red and white, as if he had opened a dyeing factory.

Although he was looking for a female companion to deal with Xi Ruier, it was also a fact that Assistant Liu couldn't find anyone after running around.

Xu Youyou continued, "I'm only willing to play this role with you for the sake of these expensive jewels. Mr. Lu, please don't take it seriously."

The initial favorable impression Lu Jingyao had of Xu Youyou due to her appearance had completely vanished after hearing these words. He practically gritted his teeth as he spoke, "Don't worry, I can tell the difference between falsehood and reality."

Xu Youyou felt so relieved when she saw how frustrated he was. If she had encountered such a situation in her previous life, she would have angrily thrown the necklace at his face.

But now she has come to terms with it and decided not to go against anything else but money.

Although Lu Jingyao has some mental problems, Xu Youyou now has 600 million yuan in her bank card, and 500 million yuan of it was contributed by Lu Jingyao. Rounding it off, he is Xu Youyou's big money sponsor. Xu Youyou didn't care about just a few unpleasant words he said back on the spot.

In the former lounge next to the banquet hall, Xi Ruier grabbed his father's sleeve and said, "Dad, don't you admire Lu too? You've always wanted to open up the Chinese market, and Lu's family might be able to help you a lot. Why didn't you support me just now?"

Frank said, "No matter how good your dream plan is, it can't stop people from disliking you."

Anna Shirelle stomped her feet in anger when she heard this: "Dad, I don't care. Since I was a child, there is nothing I can't get! I want Lu. Even if it's not for your business, I must get this man!"

Frank looked at his only child lovingly and said with a smile, "Well, how could our little princess not get what she wants?"

He recalled Xu Youyou's beautiful face as white jade, and his heart suddenly became hot.
