When Lu Ning heard these words, she felt that the brothers in the Lu family were really arrogant beyond belief.

Even now that things have come to this, her older brother is still acting superior and giving her charity.

Does he really think that being Lu Dongyou's sister is a glorious thing?

Lu Ning remained silent for a long time, and Lu Dongyou sensed that she was hesitating.

So he continued, "Lu Ning, I know you went back to the Lu family before because of the inheritance your parents left behind, and you didn't want to give it to Qin Xiang. As long as you sincerely return to the Lu family this time, and we are still a family like before, I will definitely treat everyone equally and will no longer favor Qin Xiang."

He now realizes that Qin Xiang is of no use to the Lu family at all; she only holds them back.

"No, you're lying. You're trying to use me to keep Chen Yu in check because you see how close I am to Chen Yu."

Lu Ning directly exposed Lu Dongyou's scheme.

After she finished speaking, she noticed that Chen Yu's expression had changed.

She gave Chen Yu a reassuring look, and then said, "Mr. Lu Dongyou, do you really think everyone else is a fool? Do you think that if you slap them and then give them a sweet treat, they'll just eagerly come back to you?"

She is a person, not a dog.

Perhaps in previous years, she was just an obedient dog in her brothers' eyes.

“Lu Ning, do you think everyone is as petty as you? I’ve already given you a way out, but you didn’t appreciate it. Don’t regret it in the future.”

Lu Dongyou's voice sounded like it was being squeezed out through his teeth, and he hung up as soon as he finished speaking.

Lu Ning looked up at Chen Yu: "My older brother has always been very arrogant at home. He thinks that whatever he does is right and whatever others do is wrong."

That's why I'm calling her now. Even though I want to use her to win over Chen Yu, I'm still acting all high and mighty.

Lu Ning felt that the other brothers were all raised by the eldest brother, and their personalities were not too different.

Chen's eyes reddened as she said, "I'm sorry."

"Don't apologize to me. They've been treating me like this for a while now. You need to be on your best at today's birthday party. My older brother and Mrs. Chen are not easy to deal with."

Lu Ning picked up the white dress from the box and put it on.

But she wouldn't let her eldest brother expand the artificial intelligence project with the Chen family's help, otherwise how could she force Qin Xiang to take action against the people behind the scenes?

As long as those people take action, they can find clues.

Lu Ning, Chen Yu, and Chen Guoguo went to the studio together to get their hair and makeup done.

When Chen Yu arrived at the location, she realized something was wrong. The owner of this styling studio was not easy to book, and she couldn't book an appointment with him at all.

But the driver brought them here, and it was obvious that it was Ji Chiqian's arrangement.

After finishing her makeup and styling, Chen Yu couldn't hold back any longer and told Lu Ning about it.

Lu Ning was stunned for a moment. During this period, Ji Chiqian had been sending her messages every day.

Most of what they say is nonsense, such as what they did at the meeting today, and who they went out drinking and socializing with tonight.

The man delivered things to me every day, and he kept sending them despite my repeated refusals.

She could have simply deleted Ji Chiqian's WeChat account, but she didn't; she just didn't reply to his messages.

How could she possibly forget someone she'd liked for so long?

Lu Ning snapped out of her daze: "Since someone wants to be a sucker, might as well take advantage of it. It's getting late, you should go to the banquet first."

Seeing that she wasn't angry, Chen Yu felt much relieved: "He'll definitely be back soon. With him backing you up, no one will dare to bully you."

The Lu family members are not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the Ji family.

Will Ji Chiqian also attend the banquet? Lu Ning felt inexplicably uneasy.

Chen Yu left first, but Lu Ning and Chen Guoguo's group wasn't finished yet.

Chen Guoguo was a little nervous: "If Chen Yu does this today, she will have a complete falling out with her family."

"If she does nothing, she will only be used and eventually abandoned."

Just like she was in her past life.

Lu Ning pondered today's plans and glanced at Chen Guoguo: "You can still back out now if you want to."

"Could I do something so disloyal?"

Although Chen Guoguo was a bit timid, she still wanted to help.

Lu Ning and Chen Guoguo set off for the seven-star hotel an hour later, with the Chen family having booked the entire place.

When they arrived, there was already a long line of luxury cars.

Therefore, the taxi they were in stood out conspicuously.

Even the driver couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror several times, wondering if Lu Ning and her friends were there to cause trouble.

Lu Ning brazenly got out of the car and walked into the hotel with Chen Guoguo.

"Lu Ning, why do you always try to crash every banquet? Today's banquet only invited friends from high society and relatives from the Chen family. Who do you think you are?"

Mo Shanshan, carrying a designer handbag, glanced at Lu Ning with her nose in the air: "My sister and the heir of the Ji family are a couple. You, a country bumpkin, shouldn't be daydreaming. If you want to be a mistress, you should at least know your place. My sister is a top socialite!"

Ever since she found out that the woman the young master of the Ji family was seeing outside was Lu Ning, Mo Shanshan was so angry that she wanted to kill that bitch. If it weren't for her sister stopping her, she would have done it long ago.

Lu Ning remained expressionless; she knew this would happen at the banquet today.

Chen Guoguo couldn't help but speak up: "What mistress? Watch your mouth. The Ji family has already clarified that there is no engagement between them and your sister. You two are the ones who shamelessly offered yourselves up."

Mo Shanshan was so angry that she raised her hand to hit someone, but Lu Ning grabbed her hand: "If you do it here, you'll be on the front page tomorrow. You can try it!"

Mo Shanshan angrily turned to the security guard outside the door and said, "This woman is trying to take advantage of the situation. Don't let her in."

The security guard walked directly up to Lu Ning and said, "Please leave, both of you."

Chen Guoguo was a little angry: "I am an invited guest."

Mo Shanshan burst out laughing: "You two must have come by taxi. The guests invited today are all people of high status and influence. Why would the Chen family invite you? You can't even come up with a better excuse!"

We absolutely cannot let that bitch Lu Ning get away with this.

Lu Ning took out the invitation and handed it to the security guard.

Mo Shanshan's expression froze: "This invitation is definitely fake."

The security guard glanced at it and looked surprised: "The invitation is real. You are Miss Lu Ning, right?"

Lu Ning nodded, and the security guard quickly returned the invitation to her.

But Mo Shanshan snatched it away, saying, "That's impossible! Lu Ning, how could you have received an invitation from the Chen family? You must have faked it."

Could it be because of the Ji family?

Is the Chen family really so disrespectful to the Mo family that they would invite this wretched woman to a banquet?

At this moment, Lu Dongyou appeared with his family.

Lu Dongyou walked directly up to Lu Ning: "You still came. In that case, you'd better stay by my side obediently from now on."

Lu Ning crossed her arms over her chest, her red lips curving slightly: "I didn't come here because of you."

Qin Xiang also came over, and when she saw the dress Lu Ning was wearing, she was instantly consumed by jealousy.

She really wanted this dress, but her older brother said he couldn't buy it, so now Lu Ning is wearing it!

Could it be that the older brother deliberately gave the dress to Lu Ning in order to ease tensions with her?

Qin Xiang said in a teasy tone, "Sister Ningning, if it weren't for Big Brother, you wouldn't have been able to even get into the banquet."

Why does that bitch Lu Ning keep haunting me?!

Lu Wu glared at Lu Dongyou angrily: "Big brother, why did you bring Lu Ning? Isn't it better if our whole family is together?"
