Shen Yuan calmly surveyed the guests below.
The identities of those present today were even beyond her reach.
However, Lu Si had personally presented his connections to Mei Shu.
No one knew how anxious she was beneath her calm exterior.
But at this point, she had no room for turning back.
Shen Yuan took a deep breath, under the spotlight, her expression composed as she said, “As everyone knows, 1 am Lu Si’s legitimate fiancee. Miss Mei, you’re a student who just came of age today. I would like to ask you, under what means did you make my fiance willingly host such a grand coming-of-age ceremony for you, given that you have no prior connection with him?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole venue erupted.
Wen Miao was also invited by Mei Shu today.
She became anxious upon hearing this and desperately shouted from the audience, “You’re wrong! Shu’er has been with Lu Si for a long time; it’s you who came out of nowhere!”
“Oh?” Shen Yuan’s tone lifted, carrying a hint of significance. Looking at Mei Shu with disdain in front of everyone, she said, “So, you’re my fiance’s secret lover?”
“No, it’s not like that at all!” Wen Miao was extremely anxious.
The discussions about Mei Shu from the crowd were incessant, and Wen Miao desperately wanted to explain. However, she wasn’t part of this social circle, and no one would listen to her.
Instead, because she was brought by Mei Shu, she became a target of criticism as well.
“I thought 1 was attending a grand event hosted by Master Si, but it turns out to be a ceremony for his mistress. Ew! I was wondering why Master Si hasn’t appeared yet. Just for a mistress, why would Master Si bother showing up personally?”
“Yeah, 1 initially thought that the Mei and Lu families had some friendship, and Master Si helped arrange this coming-of-age ceremony for the sake of old times. I didn’t expect it to be such a scandal!”
“What’s the big deal? Men from prominent families are all a bit scandalous. This girl managed to catch Master Si’s eye, which is quite impressive. Using her tactics, she even got Master Si into bed. I can see a bright future for this girl!” “What are you guys talking about?”
The more they spoke, the more offensive their words became.
Wen Miao found it unbearable and couldn’t help but argue with them.
However, they became more aggressive, paying no attention to her.
“Did we say anything wrong? The legitimate fiancee has already shown up. I doubt if this banquet can proceed today! But speaking of which, Master Si allowed his legitimate fiancee to ruin the coming-of-age ceremony of his little mistress. It seems that Mei Shu doesn’t hold much weight in Master Si’s heart!” Wen Miao’s eyes turned red with anger, but she couldn’t find words to refute.
These people understood nothing.
Although she had only met Lu Si a few times, she could see that Mei Shu and Lu Si genuinely loved each other. It wasn’t as they claimed!
On stage, Mei Shu’s younger brothers had rushed to her side, protecting Mei Shu and preventing the media’s cameras from capturing her.contemporary romance
The scene became chaotic, and the host had never encountered such a situation. Even yelling at everyone to quiet down was futile.
Mei Yan angrily snatched the microphone and was about to scold someone.
Mei Shu quickly took the microphone away from her.
Today’s guests were all distinguished, and offending any one of them was something the Mei family couldn’t afford.
The only person who could calm the situation was Lu Si.
However, he and Lu Yan had yet to appear, making Mei Shu feel that something must have happened on Lu Si’s side.
Taking a deep breath, Mei Shu calmly said into the microphone, “Please be quiet, everyone. 1 would like to ask Miss Shen, is this your intention, or are you forced to do this? If you have any difficulties, you can discuss them privately with Ah Si and me. We will try our best to help you resolve them.”
Shen Yuan didn’t expect that even at this point, Mei Shu could still be so friendly to her.
But she had no turning back now; her only way out was to marry Lu Si.
“I have no difficulties. I’m stating the facts. I have publicly acknowledged the engagement, and soon we will be engaged. So, I’m not happy that my future husband is hosting such a grand coming-of-age ceremony for you, his mistress. From now on, the Shen family and the Mei family are enemies!”
Mei Shu raised an eyebrow, understanding her meaning. Her gaze became even more profound. “Very well, since that’s the case, then 1 understand everything.”
After speaking, she turned her gaze to the guests below, pushed away her brothers blocking her, raised the microphone, bowed deeply, and said, “Thank you all for taking the time to attend my coming-of-age ceremony. I believe you all know All Si’s character. For those willing to stay and continue attending the banquet, 1 will have the staff compile a guest list for Ah Si’s review later. If anyone is tired of this farce and wants to leave, please feel free to do so. I apologize for the inadequate hospitality as the host. After clarifying this matter later, I will personally send gifts as an apology..”
