Shen Wenxi was already in a bad mood, and seeing her made her even angrier. She originally wanted to pretend she didn't know her, but she never expected Sheng Xuanyue to call her. It was too late for her to stop her.

Gu Qingyan originally planned to go back to the film crew's private room, but she received a phone call as soon as she stepped out of the elevator, so she slowed down.

I never expected to run into these people.

She told the person on the other end of the phone that as soon as she put her phone away, the group of people came to her side.

Gu Qingyan glanced at them casually. The three members of the second branch of the Sheng family looked somewhat similar to the other five people, so they should be a family: a young man, a middle-aged couple, and an elderly couple.

"Yan Yan, what are you doing here?" Shen Wenxi stepped forward and looked at her, smiling kindly.

Gu Qingyan didn't want to pay them any attention.

Shen Wenxi wouldn't give her that chance. "Come on, your second aunt will introduce you," she said, turning to the Xue family.

"These are your Grandpa Xue, Grandma Xue, Uncle Xue, Aunt Xue, and this is your Brother Xue." As she spoke, she pulled her closer to Xue Wen.

"Come here, Xue Wen, this is our Yueyue's younger sister, Gu Qingyan."

The Xue couple smiled at Shen Wenxi, and then began to look at Gu Qingyan with delight. However, Gu Qingyan was somewhat disgusted that they did not greet her and remained silent.

Gu Qingyan didn't want to know who these people were, and after listening to Shen Wenxi's introduction, she wasn't even interested in looking at them.

Seeing her like this, Shen Wenxi's eyes were full of disdain and schadenfreude: "Why don't you greet your elders?"

"Mom, don't make things difficult for my sister. She's probably just shy since it's the first time we've met," Sheng Xuanyue stepped in to help.

Shen Wenxi gave her a cold glance.

Before she could react, he said to Gu Qingyan, "Yan Yan, what brings you here? Which family's young master did you meet this time?"

"Mind your own business." Gu Qingyan was wearing a navy blue dress today, with a fitted waist, exuding a cool and domineering aura.

After saying that, he turned around and walked forward to room 2018, ready to open the door.

Everyone was shocked, especially Sheng Xuanyue, whose eyes widened in disbelief.

Just as Gu Qingyan was about to open the door to the private room, Sheng Xuanyue spoke up, "Sister, did you really invite someone else? What about Brother Wen?"

Her voice was sweet, but the words she spoke were unpleasant to listen to.

Gu Qingyan paused and looked at her.

Sheng Yanyue tilted her head, her eyes slightly curved, "Sister, are you sure this private room was booked by your friend? This is a top-tier private room. I didn't expect you to be able to book such a nice room. I'm so envious."

As soon as she finished speaking, Grandma Xue continued, "Since you're here, tell us about the marriage between our two families. The Xue family and the Sheng family have a marriage agreement, so let's choose an auspicious day to get engaged."

Xue's mother and Xue Wen exchanged a glance.

In her eyes, Gu Qingyan had been raised in the countryside for more than ten years and had only been in the capital for three years.

How could a country girl like her get to Jiusen and wear such designer clothes if she didn't use some shady means?

They rarely come to Jiusen.

In addition, there were those words Sheng Xuanyue had just said.

She concluded that Gu Qingyan had made some shady deal with her face.

She wouldn't have married Xue Wen if it weren't for the fact that she was a member of the Sheng family.

"Why don't you hurry up and invite us into the private room?"

Gu Qingyan met her gaze and, seeing her embarrassed and annoyed expression, suddenly found it somewhat laughable.

Sheng Xuanyue pursed her lips and stopped speaking, her head slightly lowered, but her eyes couldn't hide her smugness.

"Qingyan, since we've met here, let's talk about your marriage to Xue Wen. Why don't you take us to your private room?" Although Madam Xue agreed with Old Madam Xue's suggestion, the club was full of people from the upper class, and it wouldn't sound good if word got out.

"She can be so shameless for that little bit of vanity, and I can't even say anything? It would be a disgrace to have someone like that as my granddaughter-in-law."

As Mrs. Xue spoke indignantly, she raised her hand.

A flash of ruthlessness and impatience crossed Gu Qingyan's amber pupils.

However, before her hand could fall, Gu Qingyan grabbed Old Madam Xue's hand.

"You think you're so great? The Sheng family has a marriage agreement with you, what does that have to do with me? Don't make me break the rules and hit an old man."

"Go get treatment if you're sick!" Gu Qingyan shook off Old Madam Xue's hand, too lazy to waste words with these people, and turned to leave.

Xue's mother, Xue Wen, stepped forward to stop Gu Qingyan, not wanting things to get too ugly, and lowered her voice slightly, "We haven't finished talking yet, where is Qingyan going?"

Gu Qingyan's eyes flashed with murderous intent. She raised her eyelids, and the slightly red blood vessels at the corners of her eyes carried a fierce aura, chilling everyone to the bone. "Get out of the way."

The girl looked up, revealing her entire face, and he gasped.

The girl had delicate features, and her brown eyes held a hint of allure, but more so a cold, ruthless, and wicked charm.

Every movement was casual, yet it carried an innate nobility and elegance.

It comes from the very core of one's being.

Xue Wen stood there, stunned.

Seeing her son like this, Xue's mother understood perfectly. "Since you happen to be here, let's have a good talk and get this engagement settled."

Having finally encountered Gu Qingyan here, Xue's mother was unwilling to let her go so easily.

It's best to keep a greedy person who has just returned from the countryside and is inexperienced in the ways of the world under your control.

By the time……

Gu Qingyan stayed by the side of the woman from another world, unaware that she was also bound by a marriage contract!

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xue's mother mocked, "What, you're still not happy? With your current reputation, you can't make it in the entertainment industry, and you're not well-liked in the Sheng family. You're not good enough for my son at all. It's just that my son likes you."

Madam Xue stood dignifiedly, dressed in designer clothes, and her every move exuded the air of a noblewoman. She looked down on Gu Qingyan.

Xue Wen had never met Gu Qingyan before, and he never expected her to be so beautiful in person.

He thought that Gu Qingyan, who came from the countryside and wasn't famous in the entertainment industry, must be ugly and haggard.

After Sheng Xuanyue left, she reached out to take Gu Qingyan's arm and said gently, "Sister, why don't we go into the private room and talk?"

Gu Qingyan calmly dodged, taking a few steps back to the side.

Sheng Xuanyue pursed her lips, her face looking forlorn, her eyes red-rimmed.

Xue Wen immediately squeezed her hand reassuringly.

Xue Mujian Gu Qingyan actually wouldn't let her into the private room, wouldn't answer her questions, and wouldn't even greet her. Mei Yining's eyes grew colder and she snorted a few times, "No manners."

It's utterly beneath us.

That's how it is when people come back from the countryside.

Shen Wenxi watched Gu Qingyan continue her self-destructive behavior, her eyes brimming with undisguised smugness.

Sheng Xuanyue was very considerate. "Auntie, please don't be angry. After all, no one taught my sister these things before."

Xue's mother's complexion improved slightly, but she felt even more regretful about her actions that evening.

She maintained her air of superiority, her tone still condescending, "Since we've already met, I'll be frank. Regarding Gu Qingyan and Xiaowen's marriage, I hope Gu Qingyan will learn how to take care of my son. She can come to our house first to learn how to be Mrs. Xue!"
