The matriarch has returned; that spendthrift son is truly daring!

Chapter 240 The Arrogant Girl

Before Xie Junchen could reach her, someone suddenly shoved him aside and ran towards Song Shuyue.

"Yueyue, I missed you so much, you really came."

Xie Fanjun gave Song Shuyue a big hug; it was a very happy thing to be close to a beautiful woman.

Yueyue smells so good and is so soft!

Xie Junchen rubbed his arm. This girl!

They really have no manners at all!

"Fan Jun, did you come alone?" Song Shuyue asked casually.

Xie Fanjun pouted and looked at Xie Junchen. "My second brother came with me."

Song Shuyue also noticed Xie Junchen at this moment. He was only wearing a dark black shirt that looked like it was of super high quality. The sleeves at the collar were not tied, which added a touch of lazy and casualness.

His androgynous face seemed to be smiling, yet his deep, phoenix-shaped eyes were incredibly alluring. If described in a single sentence, he would be the image of a refined scoundrel and a male enchantress.

There wasn't much of a visual clash for Song Shuyue. She knew from her past life that Xie Junchen was handsome; otherwise, he wouldn't have been hailed as the dream general of every woman in the capital.

"Miss Song, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Thank you, sir."

Duan Jiana had been staring at Xie Junchen. When Xie Junchen walked towards a woman, she saw the woman's face clearly, her pupils trembled, she clenched her fists, and her anger flared.

Clenching his teeth, he said, word by word, "Song Shuyue!"

That bitch actually showed up too. It really was all so easy for her to come here.

"Hey, it's me. Get me some things ready, yes, I need them now."

Duan Jiana's eyes were filled with intense killing intent.

If I don't avenge this, I'm not Duan Jiana.

Huo Sijing noticed that standing next to Huo Xiaoyu and the others was a very handsome man with outstanding looks. He was even more handsome than Huo Linyu. His captivating phoenix eyes gave him a roguish yet dashing and unrestrained appearance.

Huo Sijing's heart pounded. Her plan had changed; he must be some young master from a wealthy family.

"Hello, Miss Song." Huo Sijing, dressed in a white dress and made up to look pitiful, walked over timidly.

Huo Xiaoyu said irritably, "What are you doing here?"

Seeing her always brings trouble; Huo Sijing is a troublemaker.

Hearing her harsh words, Huo Sijing couldn't help but tear up and sniffle. "Sister, I just wanted to say hello. Why are you so hostile towards me? We're all family. Why do you always target me for no reason? I've already moved into the dormitory. Aren't you satisfied? I just want to stay with Mom and Dad, that's all."

Huo Xiaoyu hated her most of all for her coy and pretentious manner.

In her view, one should be open and honest, and say what one thinks.

She dislikes people like Huo Sijing who have to beat around the bush when they speak.

"If you stay away from us, I won't be so hostile towards you."

Huo Sijing bit her lip, her eyes slightly red, "Sister, are you even going to take away my right to make friends now?"

Huo Xiaoyu: "I never said that."

Huo Sijing wiped away non-existent tears, putting on a kind and understanding appearance. "Little sister, I know you didn't, Miss Song. We've had a few arguments before, and I apologize for that. I hope you can forgive me. And who is this young lady?"

Xie Fanjun smiled politely, "My name is Xie Fanjun."

Huo Sijing smiled brightly, "Miss Xie, hello, my name is Huo Sijing."

Song Shuyue saw through Huo Sijing's intentions; it was obvious that Huo Sijing had come specifically for Xie Junchen.

Huo Xiaoyu turned her head away angrily, not wanting to pay any attention to Huo Sijing.

After greeting them all, Huo Sijing looked at Xie Junchen with a smile and her eyes sparkled.

"May I ask how this gentleman is addressed?"

Xie Junchen appeared calm on the surface, but his eyes had already changed. They were no longer as warm and friendly as before, but instead filled with indifference, endless indifference. He glanced at her indifferently.

"man."

Huo Xiaoyu couldn't help but burst out laughing. What kind of answer was that, man?

Huo Sijing's perfect smile froze on her face. She tried her best to remain polite and said in a gentle tone, "This gentleman really knows how to joke."

Xie Junchen didn't even lift his eyelids, casually twirling the thumb ring on his thumb, and asked in return, "Did I say something wrong?"

Now it was Huo Sijing's turn to be speechless. She could only give an awkward smile to hide her shame.

This person must be extremely wealthy and powerful; she cannot give up on him.

"Sir, are you also from Beijing?"

Huo Sijing then asked.

Seeing that her second brother was about to speak again, Xie Fanjun was afraid that he would say something unpleasant again, so she helped him answer, "Yes, he is my second brother, his name is Xie Junchen. Miss Huo, my second brother is a bit blunt, please don't take it to heart."

Others may not know the significance of this word "thank you," but Huo Sijing does!

From the moment she learned about her background, Huo Sijing was determined to climb the social ladder. She considered herself extraordinary and believed that the Huo family was just a stepping stone.

With her talent and beauty, she is sure to find a family even more prominent than the Huo family as her future husband's family.

So she worked hard to cultivate a good reputation, be a good student, and became a socialite and outstanding young woman that everyone praised.

Isn't this the moment we've been waiting for?

The Xie family!

No, it's not just Beijing; it's a place no one in the entire Xia Kingdom dares to mess with. Its family holds a high position and is extremely secretive. It's a truly powerful and influential family.

If you were to ask how Huo Sijing found out, it would all be thanks to Huo Linyu. Huo Linyu is a big shot in Beijing, and the people he can get in touch with are all extraordinary.

On one occasion, she made an excuse that she didn't want to sit in the car alone while waiting, so she accompanied him to a social event.

In that instant, Huo Sijing came into contact with the truly powerful and wealthy scions, any one of whom could intimidate the entire business world with a stomp of their foot.

The last person to appear was Xie Jia, and everyone respected him.

He didn't sit down, so no one else dared to sit down.

The shock brought by that power and status left Huo Sijing unable to calm down for a long time after her return.

So from that moment on, she vowed to marry into one of the ten most powerful families in Beijing, or better yet, the Xie family.

However, isn't today a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Huo Sijing was lost in thought, which puzzled Xie Fanjun, who asked again, "Miss Huo, are you alright?"

Huo Sijing came to her senses and realized that Xie Junchen had left sometime earlier.

"I'm fine, Miss Xie. I was just thinking about something, I'm so sorry, Miss Xie. The back hall is a lot of fun, why don't we go together?"

Huo Sijing took the initiative to invite him.

Xie Fanjun smiled faintly, "Thank you, Miss Huo. I'd like to sit here for a while longer. You can go ahead now!"

Huo Sijing: "Okay, then I'll head over now. If anything happens, Miss Xie, you can come find me."

Duan Jiana swayed as she walked towards Song Shuyue. "Your name is Song Shuyue, right? Do you remember me?"

Duan Jiana smiled, but her eyes were filled with venom and hatred.

Song Shuyue: "Is there something you need?"

Duan Jiana smiled and said, "Song Shuyue, last time you dared to break into my house and take my people away. Aren't you afraid I'll retaliate against you?"

Song Shuyue's eyes were cold as ice, and her expression remained unchanged, still as arrogant and aloof as ever.

"If you dared to retaliate against me, you wouldn't have waited until now."

Song Shuyue's words struck a chord with her. The only reason Duan Jiana couldn't retaliate against her before was that she had nowhere to start.

Duan Jiana gritted her teeth, "Song Shuyue, you're so smug. You broke into my house without permission and injured my bodyguard. If I call the police, your reputation will spread throughout Beijing immediately, believe it or not."

Song Shuyue looked her up and down. "Duan Jiana, if you want to ruin your reputation so quickly, I can do you a favor and call the police if you want."

"What do you mean."

Duan Jiana's face turned ashen. She was clearly just a greenhorn, so why did her aura always send chills down Duan Jiana's spine?

"You should understand what I mean. I'm in a good mood today, and I don't want to cause any trouble with you in the Huo family. So you'd better keep quiet, or I guarantee that everything you've done will be known to everyone. It's not time for you to be taken down yet."

These triumphant and arrogant words brought Duan Jiana's hatred for her to its peak.

Very good, very good, no one has ever dared to threaten her.

Song Shuyue!

You are the first.

After leaving, Song Shuyue picked up a glass of wine and was about to drink it when she suddenly realized something was wrong. Her eyes flashed, her eyebrows slightly raised, and she drank the wine in one gulp.

Seeing this, Duan Jiana smiled smugly.

Song Shuyue, Song Shuyue, you really are a greenhorn, fearless.

They are so ignorant and arrogant, yet they dare to threaten her.

She has many ways to ruin someone; you're underestimating me.

Duan Jiana picked up her wine and took a sip, then squinted as she continued to observe Song Shuyue.

Before long, Song Shuyue's body began to sway, and she could only support herself with the help of a waiter. Seeing that her plan had succeeded, Duan Jiana immediately ordered people to prepare for the next move.

"Miss, you seem to be feeling unwell. Let me help you upstairs to rest for a while!"

A girl in work clothes, with a big smile on her face, said this.

Song Shuyue rubbed her head. "Then I'll have to trouble you."

"You're welcome, miss, let's go."

Song Shuyue was helped up the stairs. Xie Junchen, who was sitting in a corner on the second floor drinking with Huo Linyu and others, saw Song Shuyue being helped into a room.

With a creak, he pushed the chair aside and quickly ran out.

Huo Linyu and the others were completely bewildered. "Hey, where are you going? Why are you running in such a hurry?"

Xie Junchen: "Going to the toilet."

Huo Linyu: "..."

"Miss, there's no one in this room. Please rest well. I'll head out now."

Song Shuyue lay on the bed with her eyes closed, tearing at her clothes while complaining of the heat.

Upon seeing this situation, the girl took out her phone, sent a message, and slowly closed the door.

Xie Junchen knew that girls were most vulnerable to accidents at banquets like this, and he saw the girl who had helped him in leave.

Xie Junchen knocked on the door, but there was no response. After hesitating for three seconds, he opened the door and went in.
