Lu Yuting asked calmly, "What's wrong with you?"

Fang Yixuan stared at him angrily, "You brat, can't you talk to your mother and me?"

Lu Yuting pursed his lips, "If there's nothing wrong with you, I'll take Xi'er to eat something and then go back."

When Fang Yixuan heard this, she stepped forward and angrily punched Lu Yuting's arm.

"Are you still a young man? How can a thirty-year-old live like an eighty-year-old man and just want to go home!

There will be a dance party later, you must participate before leaving."

Wouldn't it be wasted if we don't show off such obvious traces in front of everyone?

Why mention going home at this time?

Did this brat hear the conversation between her and Ning Yuxi just now?

The rotten peach blossom bullied his wife, why didn't he know how to protect her?

"Mom, it's me who wants to go back."

Ning Yuxi blushed and said softly, catching the ambiguity in Fang Yixuan's eyes, her expression became more and more uncomfortable.

She subconsciously wanted to block the marks on her neck with her fingers, but she was worried that everyone would notice the movements of her hands, so she raised the hand hanging by her side, then dropped it again.

But she had her long hair pulled up today, and there was no way to cover the marks on her neck.

The more you care, the more uncomfortable you become. Simply leaving now is the best choice.

Fang Yixuan took Ning Yuxi's hand and patted it, "Listen to me, let's dance with Yu Ting before we leave. Think of it as exercise."

"The dance will start in a moment. You go and have something to eat first to cushion your stomach."

Only when you have a full stomach can you have the strength to show affection!

Fang Yixuan's attitude was domineering and forceful, and she didn't give Ning Yuxi a chance to refuse. She pushed them away as she spoke.

Ning Yuxi and Lu Yuting were pushed a few steps away. Ning Yuxi looked back at Fang Yixuan and saw her smiling and waving to them. Then she was held by Lu Yuting and moved toward the table where the food was placed.

Go to the long table.

"Since Mom is so insistent, then don't spoil her fun, just have a dance and then we'll go, eh?"

Ning Yuxi looked up at him, and Lu Yuting happened to also look over at her.

Seeing the subtle smile flashing in his sandalwood eyes, Ning Yuxi raised her eyebrows.

"I now have reasonable suspicion that you and Mom are colluding."

First it left marks on her neck, and then it stayed to dance.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like a trap set for her by the mother and son.

Lu Yuting chuckled secretly, and tightened his arms around her waist.

"Xi'er, you have to understand one thing, I will always be on your side."

sweet Nothing!

Ning Yuxi snorted coldly, as if she didn't believe the man's words at all, but the corners of her lips that unconsciously raised betrayed her true heart.

It felt like honey melted in my heart and flowed into my blood.

The two of them went to the side to eat, but several wealthy people in the crowd stood together to discuss after seeing the obvious marks on Ning Yuxi's neck.

"Hey! Did you see it?"

"what did you see?"

"The marks on Miss Ning's neck! Considering that Miss Ning and Mr. Lu just walked in from the balcony, maybe the two of them were on the balcony just now..."

The girl who spoke crossed her fingers, her eyes flashing with gossip.

The other daughter gave her a blank look, raised her chin proudly, and looked unconvinced.

"Can your thoughts be less dirty? Who is Young Master Lu? How could he do such an immoral thing on such an occasion? Maybe it was Ning Yuxi who forced Young Master Lu to leave traces on her."

"Tsk...it's so bitter. Miss Ning is now recognized as the daughter-in-law by Mrs. Lu. No matter how bitter you are about Young Master Lu, she can't be yours."

"you……"

"What she said is correct. Even without Miss Ning, the only one who will become Young Master Lu's fiancée is Lin Wanran. It's true that there is nothing wrong with you."

"I don't know what Lin Wanran thought when she saw the marks on Miss Ning's neck."

"What do you think? If I were Lin Wanran, I would be furious!"

The few daughters were so selfless in their discussion that they completely failed to notice that Lin Wanran was standing not far from them.

At first, Lin Wanran's eyes were following Lu Yuting, and she didn't notice anything wrong at all.

It wasn't until he heard the discussion among several daughters that he noticed the marks on Ning Yuxi's neck.

She remembered clearly that when Ning Yuxi came to the banquet, her neck was clean.

As a result, it just disappeared for a while and there were ambiguous marks on the neck.

What she and Brother Lu did on the balcony can be guessed with a little thought.

When she thought that such ambiguous and charming tenderness belonged to Ning Yuxi, her heart seemed to have been torn open by life, and blood flowed freely.

The mark on Ning Yuxi's neck was undoubtedly a handful of salt sprinkled on her wounds, making her miserable.

Lin Wanran gritted her teeth and looked at Ning Yuxi, whose eyes were filled with deep hatred. The wine glass she was holding with her fingers was cracked, and her whole body began to tremble slightly.

Crazy thoughts breed wildly in her brain and grow rapidly, like vines entangled in her sanity.

"Snapped!"

The goblet was completely broken by her, and the broken glass cut her fingers. The sudden pain made her regain some sense, and the hatred in her eyes gradually dissipated and was hidden in her eyes.

The waiter walking in the banquet hall noticed the broken wine glass at her feet. When he came over, he saw the scarlet blood on her fingers and exclaimed.

"Ms. Lin, you are injured. I will take you to bandage it."

Lin Wanran hid the glass shard in her hand and said calmly:

"No, just give me a band-aid."

"Wait a moment and I'll get it for you."

A few minutes later, the waiter brought a band-aid and offered to bandage it, but she refused.

Lin Wanran walked to a corner with the band-aid and put it on her cut finger.

Suddenly, the lights in the banquet hall dimmed and a spotlight came on, illuminating the center of the banquet hall.

The melodious dance music played slowly, and some young masters from rich families stepped forward to invite the daughters of famous ladies to the dance floor.

Ning Yuxi bit the small cake in her hand and looked at the dancing crowd, enjoying it leisurely.

For a moment, I forgot that she was also going to be on the dance floor.

Just as the last piece of cake in her hand fell into her mouth, a hand suddenly stretched out in front of her.

Ning Yuxi looked over and saw Lu Yuting bending slightly, making an inviting gesture.

Ning Yuxi pursed her red lips slightly and without hesitation, wiped her hands with a tissue and gently placed it in the man's hand.

Lu Yuting led her onto the dance floor, and wrapped his other hand around her waist, pushing her slightly.

The whole person was pushed into the man's arms. Ning Yuxi put her hands on her shoulders and danced with the man's steps.
