My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 84: It’s Gu Clan_1

Hearing his jeering, Ye Lu frowned, thinking that he can never restrain himself from mocking her.

Rushing against time, she quickly changed into her gown.

It was a black, one-shoulder dress with gleaming embroidery that molded perfectly to her breasts. The flowing white skirt complimented her slender legs. It was simple yet resplendent, a perfect blend of elegance and freshness, a hint of sexiness in sophistication.

It seemed as though the dress was tailor-made for her, it fits Ye Lu very well.

As Ye Lu descended the stairs, Shang Jingchen looked up, his face filled with surprise and disbelief. He hadn’t expected her transformation to be so spectacular after putting on the dress, as if she were a goddess.

She was completely different from her previous scruffy appearance, wearing a loose t-shirt and jeans. Just like a cocoon morphing into a butterfly, it brought out an uncanny charm in her.

Shang Jingchen’s heart skipped a beat, he found himself entranced.

This gold-digger could be so enchanting.

"What’s the matter? Don’t like it?" Ye Lu asked awkwardly, tugging at her dress.

"..." Snapping out of his trance, Shang Jingchen realized he had been staring. His face turned sour as he said, "It’s nothing special. But at least you won’t embarrass me."

The atmosphere was tense for the entire car ride, with Shang Jingchen frowning and remaining silent.

Ye Lu had to sit upright and cautiously, afraid to provoke his bad temper without any reason. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

When they arrived at the luncheon, it was held in a beautifully ornamental rose garden.

As soon as Shang Jingchen and Ye Lu appeared, they became the center of attention and were very popular, especially Ye Lu. Her fresh and elegant appearance and her sophisticated demeanor astonished many.

Many men approached her, pleasantly surprised, asking for introductions and to dance with her.

Ye Lu was rather taken aback as she had used to be scorned. Indeed, clothes make the man. Wearing such an elegant dress, she was now seen as a graceful socialite, and everyone wanted to get to know her.

Looking at how popular Ye Lu was among the men, many sets of eyes were on her.

Shang Jingchen became increasingly displeased. This woman, after a little bit of packaging, suddenly turned out to be so attractive and popular. He may have gained face, but he felt even more uncomfortable. He would rather she dressed plainly as she had before.

"Stop flaunting yourself around men, don’t throw yourself on them." Shang Jingchen warned her in a cold voice.

Ye Lu was speechless. Where did she flirt? He was just being petty!

Whenever someone invited her to dance, he would always refuse, only allowing her to dance with an old man who already has several children, she felt dizzy.

"Miss Ye, you are so noble and generous. If you weren’t already taken by Crown Prince Shang, I would definitely introduce you to our company’s president, Gu Yan." The old man said while dancing with her.

"What did you say, Gu Yan? Is the Shang family’s collaborator today the Gu Company?" Ye Lu was struck dumb, stiffening.

"Yes, miss, you seemed shocked, your face has gone pale, are you not feeling well?"

Meanwhile.

Yang Xiu came over with a glass of wine, smirking, "Brother, you are watching her so closely. Are you jealous? I never would have thought that after getting dressed up, she could be such a goddess. She’s really beautiful!"

He looked at Ye Lu, who was dancing in the middle of the room, in admiration and astonishment.

"Who’s jealous? I’m just preventing her from causing a scandal that would tarnish my reputation. After all, she is, in name, my girlfriend." He would never be jealous because of this woman.

"That’s good then, you must not fall for her, otherwise, you’ll be in trouble."

Shang Jingchen frowned, "Are you hiding something?"

Yang Xiu handed him a document, "Recently, my people overseas found some information about Yuan Jiayin from two years ago."
