"Do you really think that if a person achieves enlightenment, a chicken or a dog can ascend to heaven? It's really ridiculous."

"Is it so easy to get into the Li family? Just by showing off your pillow style and showing off your coquettishness can you become a young mistress?!"

"Is that her? She looks pretty good."

"No matter how well packaged it is on the outside, it won't be good on the inside. This kind of person has no self-restraint as soon as he exports."

"If she really becomes the second young lady of the Li family, I guess the Li family will have to change their surname..."

"Actually, there was quite a commotion about the Third Young Mistress inheriting the consortium, but it subsided later. I didn't expect... that her cousin would be the Second Young Mistress."

"Old Li has passed away, and the Li family is becoming more and more disgraceful..."

"Actually, it's not that bad. Don't you think the more you look at it, the more mean this woman looks?!"

…

Those people talked more and more vigorously, and every word seemed to be carving the bones of Ye Jiani and Gu Xiaoai with needles.

Gu Xiaoai couldn't help but tried desperately to get away from Li Juefeng.

She hoped that Li Juefeng and Li Juesi would not cause trouble tonight, but at this moment, she really wanted to reprimand them loudly.

Unable to escape Li Juefeng, Gu Xiaoai opened her mouth to speak, but Li Juefeng covered her mouth, and his deep voice sounded in her ears, "You will only get darker if you go out."

It would also drag down her embarrassing identity.

If she wants to maintain the impartiality of the top decision-maker of the Li family consortium, she can only remain silent.

…

She understood, but she knew that with Ye Jiani's personality, she wouldn't just run away like that.

Ye Jiani has always been strong.

Where is Li Juesi? Why doesn’t Li Juesi come out and say something?!

Gu Xiaoai turned to look at Li Juesi, and saw Li Juesi looking at the ladies and ladies without saying a word and talking to each other.

His silence made everyone think that he had given in.

So some elders stood up and said sincerely, "Okay, okay, today is a big day for us Chinese, don't make yourself unhappy over such trivial matters."

"Yes, you can just play with this kind of woman. I'm not asking you to cut off your relationship. There's nothing wrong with keeping her by your side."

"Second Young Master, just find a home for her outside. That will also be her blessing."

…

As she listened, Gu Xiaoai's fingers curled up and slowly clenched into fists, her nails digging deeply into her palms.

Those people's words... reminded her of her own past.

Li Juefeng told her that the threshold of the Li family was high and not everyone could enter.

Li Juexi told her that men in the Li family can have many women outside, but not everyone can be a wife.

If Mr. Li hadn't left the consortium to her before he died, then now... she and Li Juefeng would also have gone through this, right?

…

Li family, upper class society, terrible pyramid rules.

Gu Xiaoai stood there staring at the open mouths, looking at those pretentious high-race people, and suddenly felt as if she was walking on cotton.

She would rather Li Juefeng was covering her ears instead of her mouth.

Li Juefeng noticed something was wrong and lowered his eyes, only to see Gu Xiaoai trembling with excitement in his arms, with clear pain in her eyes.

…

Can't you interfere in her cousin's affairs and make her feel so uncomfortable?

Wrinkling his eyebrows, Li Juefeng finally let her go and strode forward. Just as he was about to speak, Li Juesi had already spoken, "That's enough! It's time for you to say enough!"

Li Juefeng stopped.

Li Juesi walked out from the table and stood in front of everyone. He was no longer as angry as before. His tall figure stood under the light and glanced at everyone with his eyes, "What did any of you say today?"
