Chapter 278 Finally, my identity as emperor is about to be discovered by the wealthy!
The housekeeper caught up with Song Zili and pulled her back, preventing her from going to the banquet hall.
"Miss, you can't dress like this! This time, the master wants to talk to the Liu family about a marriage with you, Young Master Liu. You have to leave a good impression on the Liu family!"
"Let me go. This is the dress I prepared specially for this party. I want to be the focus of the whole audience!"
The butler's mouth twitched. "This has become the focus of the whole place, but what good focus can it be? Didn't you go to Paris specifically to watch the fashion show and have a dress custom-made by an internationally renowned designer? Why aren't you wearing a dress!"
Song Zili sneered, "What do you know? This kind of pure prison style is the real classic. Do you have any aesthetic taste?"
housekeeper:? ? ?
Jiang Nanxi changed into a formal dress and walked towards them. "Why don't you go over there? If you still have things to deal with, I'll go over first."
The butler naturally knew that Jiang Nanxi was here. When he saw Jiang Nanxi go to the banquet hall, he sent a message to Xie Qin.
The housekeeper also told Xie Qin that there was a little accident with Song Zili and they would go there later.
At this moment, Xie Qin had already woken up and changed into her dress, ready to go to the banquet hall.
When she saw the message from the housekeeper, she couldn't help but frowned, "What happened to Zi Li? Didn't she say she had been preparing to attend the banquet? What could have happened? Could it be that the wild girl didn't wear the dress I prepared?"
Thinking of this, Xie Qin hurriedly walked towards the banquet hall and looked for Jiang Nanxi inside.
It didn't take long for Xie Qin to find her.
Seeing Jiang Nanxi wearing a dress, Xie Qin felt relieved and walked towards her.
"You've packed so quickly." Xie Qin looked at her and said, "I didn't expect this dress would suit you so well."
Jiang Nanxi is tall and slender with delicate features. Although the dress Xie Qin gave her is out of season, it still looks good on Jiang Nanxi.
She was holding a goblet in her hand and looking over casually. She had no makeup on her face, but her long hair was let down and simply combed, and she was still dazzling.
There was no expression on Jiang Nanxi's face, and her slender figure revealed a faint aloof temperament.
This scene reminded Xie Qin of her sister-in-law.
That is Jiang Nanxi's biological mother.
Her eldest sister-in-law was also born into a top wealthy family in the capital, graduated from a prestigious university, and had outstanding abilities. Every time she saw her eldest sister-in-law, she would unconsciously feel that she was a head shorter than her.
The woman's eyes were like this too, superior, indifferent and distant, as if everyone else was an ant, so she felt uncomfortable every time she saw her.
However, God is fair. He gave that woman a good family background, a good marriage, and a perfect family. But in the end, her life was fragile and she died early!
It was also because of this that Xie Qin thought that her chance had come. She became the real boss of the Song family, making it impossible for the children from her uncle's family to succeed!
Xie Qin saw her husband not far away, and around him were many wealthy people from the imperial capital and their children.
It seemed that the brothers Song Shiting and Song Shixing and the people from the Liu family would be here soon. It would be a good opportunity for them to watch this wild girl make a fool of herself in public and let everyone know that she was not worthy of holding shares in the Song Corporation!
Xie Qin also called two wealthy wives over, and they surrounded Jiang Nanxi and looked at her curiously.
A wealthy wife asked, "Miss Song, what are your hobbies? My daughter passed the tenth level of piano at the age of ten, and later learned cello, guzheng and classical dance. Now she is about the same age as you and is studying abroad at the most famous music school in a foreign country."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Qin said, "What hobbies can she have? These hobbies must be cultivated from childhood. She has not been in the Song family since she was a child, so how can she compare with your daughter. I heard that she used to be in an orphanage and could hardly raise enough money for tuition. Now she is very lucky to be able to graduate from college."
"Oh, that won't do. People should have some elegant hobbies. Otherwise, their souls will be empty, their words will be meaningless, and they won't know what to talk about when chatting with others."
Jiang Nanxi suddenly said, "I have hobbies. I like to read history, ancient books, and wear ancient robes. Don't look at me as ordinary. I look no different from you. In fact, I am a senior ancient style person."
Another wealthy wife was surprised and said, "You like to read history and ancient books? That's good. When you were out there, your living conditions were not good, but you liked to read books. You are really a good and motivated child. It's not shameful to be unable to raise tuition fees for school. It's shameful for a person to give up studying."
Hearing this, Xie Qin subconsciously retorted, "Mrs. Lu, just listen to her nonsense. How can she like to read history? History is so boring. My Zili and Zihao ran away after reading it for a while."
"Mrs. Song, what you said is wrong. Just because your Zili and Zihao don't like to read history books, you can't assume that other people don't like to read them either.
Your Zili and Zihao are not good at studying. If you hadn't donated a building, they wouldn't even be able to get into the best international high school in the capital, so how could they compare with them?"
After saying this, Xie Qin's face became extremely ugly.
She originally called these two ladies to come over to talk about the study and life of the children of wealthy families, so as to make Jiang Nanxi, a wild girl who grew up in a small county town, feel inferior, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Lu would actually speak up for Jiang Nanxi.
Xie Qin felt a little embarrassed.
Seeing that Mrs. Lu still wanted to continue chatting with Jiang Nanxi, she said, "Okay, let's not talk about these things anymore. Let's go over there and try some desserts first."
Xie Qin called them over.
Mrs. Lu walked beside Jiang Nanxi and whispered to her, "Nanxi, my son's name is Lu Jiaqi. He told me before that you saved his life."
The first time Jiang Nanxi saw Mrs. Lu, she guessed that she was related to Lu Jiaqi, so she was not too surprised.
Mrs. Lu also recognized Jiang Nanxi. When Xie Qin wanted to belittle Jiang Nanxi just now, she did not help.
Mrs. Lu added, "In fact, of the three sons of the Lu family, only Jiaqi is my biological son, and the other two sons are born to my husband's previous wife.
Some time ago, Jiaqi's eldest brother was murdered and his second brother went missing. I was worried that he would also have an accident, so I let him go abroad to avoid the limelight.
After Jiaqi went abroad, he called me every day to let me know he was safe, but he didn't call me yesterday. I called him but no one answered. So when I met you here today, I wanted to ask you to tell him his fortune. I just don't know if you can tell what happened to him. "
"You can figure it out."
Jiang Nanxi thought for a moment and said, "I'll help you calculate it after the banquet is over. He is my friend, and I won't watch him get into danger abroad."
"Thank you very much!"
Mrs. Lu said with great gratitude.
The two of them walked in front while chatting, while Xie Qin and another wealthy wife walked behind them.
Xie Qin looked a little unhappy when she saw Jiang Nanxi and Mrs. Lu chatting so happily.
She stared at Jiang Nanxi's back, and suddenly, Xie Qin stepped on the hem of Jiang Nanxi's dress.
A tearing sound.
The sound of dress fabric being torn was heard. Xie Qin was still stepping on Jiang Nanxi's dress, and then it fell off her body.
"Nanxi!"
Mrs. Lu reacted quickly and reached out to hug Jiang Nanxi to protect her body.
But Jiang Nanxi pushed Mrs. Lu away, with an expression of enjoyment on her face, which stunned Mrs. Lu for a moment.
"what!"
Xie Qin suddenly screamed, attracting the attention of everyone nearby.
Just when Mrs. Lu was worried about Jiang Nanxi, they discovered that an extremely dazzling and noble golden light burst out from Jiang Nanxi's body, making it impossible for them to see Jiang Nanxi's body clearly.
When the light gradually disappeared, everyone discovered that Jiang Nanxi was wearing a bright yellow outfit.
