After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

Watching Lian Buman smilingly share her collection of top-quality champagne with everyone, Lu Lingbai felt a little conflicted.

If he hadn't heard his sister's true feelings, he might have thought she was going too far.

But the younger sister wasn't sad at all, as if it wasn't entirely impossible.

Just then, Lu Lingbai wanted to divert everyone's attention and avoid creating unfounded speculation.

He raised his glass first: "Jian has been admitted to university and will soon be a student of Professor Wu Qingfeng. This is something to celebrate."

Everyone: "..."

Although I didn't quite understand, I still followed the host's instructions and livened up the atmosphere.

Sheng Lan was especially happy. Lu Sijian had ruined her life by making her offend her crush, and she should have been sad and down today.

But now the person who should be most heartbroken isn't her, it's Lu Sijian instead, how wonderful!

On the eve of their engagement ceremony, her fiancé ran off to save another woman. This is so dramatic and soap opera-like, she has to follow up on the aftermath!

Sheng Lan, always eager for gossip, even secretly shared some shocking juicy gossip with her nephew.

Worried that she wouldn't receive a timely response to her messages, she took her wine glass and hid in a quiet corner to secretly make a video call.

"Yun Chao, guess what happened today?"

Sheng Yunchao's voice was somewhat nonchalant: "What happened?"

Sheng Lan tried her best to feign a look of pity, "Listen, this is some sad news... Lou Xiao ran away from his wedding!"

Towards the end, his voice was filled with barely suppressed joy.

On the other end of the video, Uncle Ling, who was holding up his phone, froze.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Yunchao took the phone and said, "Auntie, don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not lying! Lou Xiao abandoned his fiancée to save another woman, and tomorrow's engagement party might be canceled." Sheng Lan couldn't suppress the smile on her face.

"Oh dear, what should Lu Sijian do? It's so embarrassing. She'll probably never be able to hold her head up in the industry again."

Uncle Ling: "..."

What can he say? His young lady is just too heartless.

“Aunt, you seem to have missed the point,” Sheng Yunchao said expressionlessly. “The one who will become a laughing stock is Lou Xiao.”

Sheng Lan didn't understand: "Why?"

Shouldn't the woman be the one to suffer more criticism in such a situation?

Even if Lu Sijian annulls the engagement in a fit of rage and seems to have gained the upper hand, it doesn't change the fact that she has been abandoned.

It's pitiful to see a woman abandoned at the time of her engagement.

"Does Aunt think that the Lou family has a good family tradition?" Sheng Yunchao chuckled. "With Lou Xiao's past record, the Lou family members can just elope in the future, since they won't be condemned anyway. I don't know about others, but Lou Changling would definitely be happy to follow suit and regard it as a romantic affair."

The smile on Sheng Lan's face disappeared.

Uncle Ling sighed. "See? You'll know the pain when the fire burns you."

"Ugh, we must condemn, severely condemn the man's irresponsible and irresponsible behavior!" Sheng Lan was still terrified when she thought about it.

If she marries her dream man in the future, and he suddenly runs away from the wedding for another woman, where can she go to seek justice?

"Then go ahead and condemn it." Sheng Yunchao hung up the video call.

His aunt was really overthinking things; she actually fantasized about marrying that good-for-nothing Lou Changling.

-

Lu Sijian stared in disbelief at the scene before her.

This is her party, right? Why are Xia Youyou and Lian Buman so enthusiastic, urging everyone to drink?

The atmosphere was lively, but everyone was drinking a bit too much.

Several girls were already drunk, sitting on the sofa and cursing the scumbag boyfriend.

“Young Miss…” Wang Ma looked hesitant to speak.

Lu Sijian: "Wang Ma, just say what you have to say."

Wang Ma gritted her teeth and said, "Young Miss, let's just break off the engagement!"

She thought it over and over and felt that Lou Xiao's act of abandoning Lu Sijian to save Mu Liangyue was suspicious. Combined with some clues from before, it was hard not to suspect that there was something between the two of them.

Lu Sijian: "Wang Ma, you don't need to worry, I know what I'm doing."

She had a feeling that things were bound to take an unexpected turn.

-

When a group of people barged in, many people didn't even realize what was happening.

"Who are you?" someone asked, reeking of alcohol.

Sheng Lan saw Lou Changling and happily walked over, "Brother Changling, why are you back again?"

Her face was flushed, she reeked of alcohol, and she was holding a wine glass in her hand.

The old man walking in front could no longer bear it, snatched the wine glass from her hand, and smashed it on the ground.

"Outrageous! What kind of talk is this!"

The old man next to him, with a stern face, raised his cane and smashed the champagne tower in the middle of the hall.

With a loud crash, wine and glass splattered, startling everyone.

Sheng Lan was the closest and couldn't dodge in time. She was grazed on the arm by flying glass shards, leaving a long, bloody scratch.

She looked at her blood-soaked arm and instantly became furious, "What are you doing?"

"Where's Lu Sijian? Tell her to come out here!"

The group didn't even glance at her; someone must have thought she was in the way, because they simply pushed her aside.

Sheng Lan had never suffered such an injustice before. Forgetting all about gossip, she immediately called her nephew to complain.

That's too much! She'll remember these people. Anyone who dares to offend her will regret it!

-

"What do you need me for?" Lu Sijian came out.

The old man opposite her suddenly swung his cane at her, but Lu Sijian raised her hand and grabbed it.

"Let go!" The old man tried to pull away a few times but couldn't, and scolded him.

Lu Sijian readily agreed and immediately let go.

The old man was pulling out his cane when the inertia caused him to fall to the ground.

"How dare you push me? You bastard! Do you know who I am?"

Lu Sijian was speechless; this was clearly a scam. "Who are you?"

Hurry up and give me your name so I can hold someone accountable; this champagne tower is worth a lot of money.

Lu Lingbai heard this thought as soon as he came out, and his scalp tingled. He rushed over immediately.

"Professor Wu, what brings you here?" Turning to look at the people around Lou Changling, she felt even more uneasy. "Uncle Changling, why are all these elders of the Lou Group here?"

"Professor Wu, Wu Qingfeng?" Lu Sijian was somewhat surprised.

Wu Qingfeng was helped up by Lu Lingbai, who looked at her coldly and asked, "What did you do to Mu Liangyue?"

An elder of the Lou Group also spoke up: "Where's Lou Xiao? Have him come back with us for a meeting!"

"You've come to ask me for Mu Liangyue?" Lu Sijian then looked at the elders. "You've come to ask me for Lou Xiao?"

He paused, then looked at Lou Changling and smiled, "Fourth Uncle, you really have been thinking about coming back all along."

Lou Changling was immediately enraged, but he quickly calmed down and responded with a smile.

"Sijian, your fourth uncle has no choice. It's not that you're being unreasonable and insisting on having Lou Xiao accompany you, which has delayed important matters!"

Lu Lingbo: "No, there's a misunderstanding..."

Lu Sijian interrupted him: "Shouldn't Brother Xiao stay with me? He already said he would stay with me after he finished work."

Lou Changling realized he had caught Lou Xiao red-handed: "So that's why you were clinging to Lou Xiao and wouldn't let him leave? That's just how you women are, always so prone to acting on your emotions!"

"Where's Lou Xiao? Did you guys get him drunk?"
