Lord Yan, The Little Ancestor Has Fallen Off The Horse Again!-Chapter 481: You’re Talking About Her?!

"Having your word is enough," Jiang Ying said, her chin raised as she looked at Ji Ling, whose complexion didn’t look too good.

"Now do you understand how precious a piece of Yun Yue’s calligraphy is?"

It wasn’t a matter of money at all; many people couldn’t even beg for it.

Ji Ling’s face was exceptionally ugly as she bit her lip, looking like she had suffered a great wrong.

Everyone shook their heads as they watched; they didn’t dare to speak openly about the relationships involved.

"Alright, alright, today is my birthday banquet. Let’s all get along and make money for the sake of my face. Ling girl, I know you’re upset, but since the marriage agreement between Xiao Ji and our families has been dissolved, you should also show some generosity. Today, Yun Yue is a guest; there’s no reason to drive a guest out," Elder Ji said, easing the atmosphere at the scene. After all, he was the birthday star today, and everyone had to give him face.

"Miss Yun Yue, you are too kind; I really like your birthday gift. Butler, take it to my bedroom," Ji Xian said, unable to hide his emotions, and he didn’t want to either.

He wanted to take this opportunity to announce Yun Yue’s status to everyone; otherwise, he feared there would be no chance.

Everyone showed surprise at Elder Ji’s actions.

The Jade Buddha Xiao Chen had given was merely taken by the butler to be stored away, but Elder Ji valued the calligraphy Yun Yue had given so highly that he even instructed the butler to place it in his bedroom.

Indeed, the old Family Head of the Ji Family, his thoughts were inscrutable.

...

"I never dreamed that the Mo Family would be on the Ji Family’s invitation list," Mo Huai Zhang said, thrilled beyond measure.

Today, all the powerful elites of Beijing had gathered at the Ji Family’s, absolutely a chance to make new connections.

"Dad, this is all thanks to Lingwei; without her, the Mo Family could never have reached this status and opportunity," Zhang Wenxian said, dressed magnificently today, wanting to wear all her jewelry, feeling very proud of herself.

Mo Wanchang was also filled with emotion, "Indeed, all thanks to Lingwei."

"Now you see Lingwei’s worth, right? She’s now a B-level member of the Black Alliance. Her future is boundless, and the Mo Family’s status will only climb higher and higher," Zhang Wenxian boasted with pride.

Now when she went out for afternoon tea, those aristocratic ladies would fawn over her, and no one dared call her a homewrecker any longer.

"Lingwei, what are you looking at?" Zhang Wenxian saw her staring into space and couldn’t help but ask.

"Mom, it’s nothing; I thought I saw my sister," Mo Lingwei said, unsure if it was really Mo Fan. freewebnoveℓ.com

Because in her heart, someone with Mo Fan’s status could not possibly attend such a banquet.

The happy family’s faces all frowned upon hearing the name Mo Fan.

"She couldn’t possibly be here; you must be mistaken," Zhang Wenxian immediately said disdainfully, "Her presence would only disgrace the Mo Family, unlike Lingwei who brings nothing but glory to us."

The father and son of the Mo Family didn’t speak, clearly agreeing with her.

A slight smile appeared at the corner of Mo Lingwei’s lips as she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure, "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I see someone I know; I’ll go say hello."

"Go ahead," Zhang Wenxian smiled and said.

This was a room full of young talents. With her Weiwei’s abilities and looks, it would be perfect if a scion of a wealthy family took a liking to her.

Jiang Qi and Zhai Quan, both dressed in luxurious suits, stood out in the crowd, and within a short time, several noble young ladies had approached them to make conversation, yet both men appeared to lack interest.

"Look at you, Jiang Qi, playing the disappearing act again, huh? I send you a message, and you reply instantaneously, thinking it’s all a cycle, huh?" Jiang Ying suddenly emerged from somewhere, grabbed Jiang Qi’s ear, looking very angry.

"Ow, ow, ow!" Jiang Qi inhaled sharply, pleading with her to let go.

"I won’t let go. Have you gotten tired of chasing after me and now want to find another woman?!"

If there was a knife around, Jiang Qi would have sworn that the knife would definitely be at his throat.

"Yingying, listen to my explanation," Jiang Qi said helplessly, his head tilted, "Let’s find a quiet place, and I’ll tell you everything."

Jiang Ying hadn’t really planned to make it hard for him, so she let go of his hand, huffing as she left.

Zhai Quan was left standing in place: "..."

Just him, a single dog.

"Why are you here alone? Where’s Jiang Qi?" As Mo Fan walked over, he saw her drinking alone and gently clinked glasses with her.

"She’s been pulled aside by Jiang Ying for questioning." Zhai Quan was somewhat gloating.

Suddenly, he saw his own mother leading a girl towards him from afar. He instantly wanted to turn and run, but then he heard his mother calling him.

"Son, come here."

Zhai Quan stiffened all over and reluctantly turned around with a smile, watching as his mother and the girl approached him.

"Mom."

"Let me introduce you, this is Lady Mo Lingwei, and this is my son." Zhai Quan’s mother introduced them with a smile.

Zhai Quan: "..."

Wasn’t this the same girl who was Feng Ye’s first love not long ago?

And still masquerading under a false identity.

It must be her, the one his mother was planning to introduce to him.

If it had been anyone else, Zhai Quan would have greeted them with a smile out of politeness, but unfortunately, this person was Mo Lingwei. He instinctively felt no fondness towards her.

"Mom, you don’t need to introduce us, we know each other. Hello, Lady Mo." Zhai Quan greeted her coldly.

Mo Lingwei’s gaze had been fixed on Mo Fan the whole time. She realized she hadn’t been mistaken earlier—that man was indeed Mo Fan.

Is she hooking up with Mr. Zhai now?

For some reason, Mo Lingwei felt irked inside—anything that Mo Fan coveted, she wanted to snatch away even more.

"Mr. Zhai, it’s been a while." Mo Lingwei curved her lip and extended her hand gracefully.

Seeing this, Zhai Quan’s hands remained in his pockets, not moving, and Mo Lingwei had to withdraw hers awkwardly.

Mrs. Zhai glared at him disapprovingly, "Where have all your usual manners and etiquette gone? Speak properly to Lady Mo."

Zhai Quan: "..."

His mother, who had been living abroad, came back to the country just recently. As for her reasons, he figured it out—they were all about pressuring him into marriage.

Of all people, she had to pick Mo Lingwei. If she knew about Mo Lingwei’s background, she probably wouldn’t say a word to her.

At this time, Father Feng and Mrs. Feng saw Zhai Quan approaching, and upon seeing Mo Lingwei, the smiles on their faces faded a bit. They greeted Mrs. Zhai, completely ignoring Mo Lingwei.

The few of them hadn’t met for a long time and exchanged obligatory pleasantries. After finishing, Mrs. Feng finally had time to ask Zhai Quan, "Xiaoquan, where’s Feng Ye? We’ve been looking all over and haven’t seen him."

That kid must be hiding to avoid their marriage pestering.

Zhai Quan remembered what Feng Ye said the day before and replied with a smile, "He’s probably hiding to avoid your marriage questions."

"See, see, I knew that little rascal must be hiding," Mrs. Feng was so annoyed, "So he was lying about finding Mo Fan too?!"

She made Xiao Chen lie to them as well?!

The thought made Mrs. Feng’s chest hurt with anger.

Mrs. Zhai saw this and quickly came over to comfort her, "It’s the same with yours. My son is already twenty-five and doesn’t even have a girlfriend. I just got to know a girl and brought her here to meet him."

Mrs. Zhai pointed at Mo Lingwei, causing Father Feng’s and Mrs. Feng’s expressions to shift.

"You mean her?!" Mrs. Feng looked at Mo Lingwei in disbelief.

She must have been dazzled by Mo Lingwei!
