C20 Someone Makes a Fool of Himself

Zhou Wenli returned to the banquet hall and asked Lu Shaoqian, "CEO Lu, Madam will be coming down soon."

Lu Shaoqian nodded and continued to chat about business with the people around him. Although this was a banquet, it was also a good time to strengthen their connections.

Many young girls dressed up beautifully, shuttling back and forth at the banquet in an attempt to find the fifth brother of the diamond king.

When Zuo Nian returned to the banquet, the bag in her hand was already gone.

When she was in the corridor, she had thrown the bottle of red wine into the trash can.

Among the crowd, Zhao Yahui walked to her daughter's side. Seeing that Zuo Nian was empty-handed, she asked her, "How is it? Have you settled it?"

Zuo Nian nodded and raised the corner of her mouth into a smile. "Done. Just watch Zuo Yi make a fool of herself."

She had a bright smile on her face, and when she thought of Zuo Yi's bedraggled appearance in the bathroom, she felt a burst of joy in her heart. He felt as happy as if he had won a Nobel Peace Prize.

When Zuo Yi appears in the banquet hall, she will definitely embarrass herself. When that happens, Lu Shaoqian will definitely be unhappy and this will definitely affect their relationship.

Zuo Nian thought that even if there was no gap between the two of them, she would take a knife and pry them apart bit by bit.

Zuo Nian took a glass of soda and chatted with a few girls her age. As he spoke, he turned his gaze in the direction of the door.

"I heard Lu Shaoqian became your brother-in-law. Congratulations." A girl said.

Zuo Nian smiled with embarrassment. She glanced at Lu Shaoqian from afar and the jealousy in her heart started to burn. How could Zuo Yi be worthy of such an outstanding man? She, Zuo Nian, wanted to announce to the world that she wasn't worthy of Zuo Yi!

Time slowly passed. Suddenly, the banquet hall's door was pushed open.

Zuo Yi walked in. It was about to be the stage of the trade dance and she couldn't leave Lu Shaoqian here alone.

When Zuo Nian saw Zuo Yi's face, she immediately became happy. She raised the corner of her mouth and waited for Zuo Yi to become everyone's laughing stock.

But as the seconds passed, she didn't hear any mocking words.

What was going on? She frowned. According to her expectations, the banquet hall should be filled with booing and mocking laughter by now.

But now, all he heard were praises. Could it be that these people were all blind? Didn't he see that patch of red?

Zuo Nian frowned and looked towards Zuo Yi's dress.

She was shocked. Zuo Yi was indeed wearing a white dress, but the style was completely different. Looking at her back, there was not even a little bit of red.

Damn it, that bitch had actually changed into a new set of formal attire.

Zuo Nian's face immediately twisted as she looked at Zuo Yi. A fierce fire appeared in her eyes, as if she wanted nothing more than to burn Zuo Yi to ashes.

Zhao Yahui glanced at her daughter, and when she saw Zuo Nian's fuming face, she instantly understood what was going on.

Soon, the elegant sound of a violin could be heard in the banquet hall. The dance segment had arrived. Lu Shaoqian and Zuo Yi both jumped up.

Zuo Yi had learned ballroom dancing in physical education before, so she did it effortlessly. Lu Shaoqian's dancing style was standard handsome. Very quickly, the two of them became the most dazzling pair on the dance floor.

"What a perfect match!"

"Yeah, yeah, they're so compatible."

Praise immediately rose up from the crowd, but on Zuo Nian's face was an expression of extreme anger. How could she have expected Zuo Nian to prepare two sets of dresses?

When the ballroom dance ended, the music started playing again. This part was about dancing without restriction. Many young people rushed to the dance floor and began to dance happily.

Lu Shaoqian and Zuo Yi also walked onto the dance floor and started dancing.

Zuo Nian looked at the couple on the dance floor and viciously said, "There will be a day when I will break you apart!"

A baritone suddenly sounded next to her ear, "Miss, may I ask if you'd like to dance?"

Zuo Nian looked over and saw an ordinary looking man.

Compared to Lu Shaoqian, the difference was like heaven and earth.

Zuo Nian was a hundred times unwilling to do so in her heart, but due to her feelings, she had no choice but to place her hand on the man's outstretched hand. The two of them quickly walked onto the dance floor.

Lu Shaoqian and Zuo Yi danced right next to him. Zuo Nian looked at the two of them, and her teeth started to itch. Zuo Nian had a smile on her face every time Lu Shaoqian turned around, but when Zuo Yi turned around, Zuo Nian didn't look happy.

The music kept changing, and soon, only Lu Shaoqian and Zuo Yi were left on the dance floor. The two of them cooperated very well, and their beautiful dancing style won the applause of the audience.

Zuo Nian, who was sitting on the sofa, noticed the two of them dancing gracefully.

Zhao Yahui took the opportunity to walk to her daughter's side and sit down. She whispered, "What's wrong?"

Zuo Nian gritted her teeth and said, "That bitch! She changed into a new set of clothes and pissed me off!"

The corner of Zhao Yahui's mouth lifted into a pretty smile. From afar, she looked like a gentle mother who was talking to her daughter.

"Not this time. There's still a next time." Zhao Yahui consoled.

When Zuo Nian heard this, she gritted her teeth and said, "Even if she gets lucky this time, next time, she'll definitely be unable to escape my grasp."

The door of the banquet hall opened and a man wearing a black suit walked onto the stage. He whispered a few words into the host's ear, then stood to the side and looked at the people sitting below the stage.

After a while, the party music stopped. The host cleared his throat and said, "May I ask which guest threw this into the trash can in the corridor? You are not allowed to bring liquor in the hotel. Now that someone has violated the rules, you are asked to admit who it is and pay the fine.

The crowd immediately broke into discussion. Everyone here should know that a five-star hotel doesn't allow drinks, and entering or leaving a five-star hotel was a common occurrence, yet there were actually people who violated the rules. The compensation penalty was small, but the key issue was to lose face.

Zuo Nian looked towards the stage. The host was holding the half bottle of wine that he had left in the trash can. He suddenly became flustered.

He had only wanted to embarrass Zuo Yi by forgetting the rules of the hotel.

If he admitted it now, it would be like slapping himself twice in the face.

"Who is it? Please admit it." the host shouted.

The people below looked at each other. None of them admitted to it.

Zuo Nian gritted her teeth. In the crowd, she couldn't see where Zhao Yahui was, so she could only stand there with her head lowered.

"I'll say it again, I hope you'll admit it. If you don't, I'll show you the video surveillance footage of the hotel." A disc appeared in the host's hand.

Zuo Nian raised her head and looked in the direction of the main door. Gritting her teeth, she strode forward, preparing to slip away from the crowd. There were too many people at the banquet to be able to tell.

Just as she was about to reach the door, a baritone suddenly sounded from behind her.

"Miss Zuo Nian, where are you going? Do you want me to accompany you?"

Zuo Nian stopped and looked back. It was actually the man who had invited her to dance. She hated how she couldn't scrape the skin of this man, but she still had a smile on her face.

"Hur Hur Hur Hur, I just want to come here to get some fresh air. I'll be back in a while."

Zuo Nian was unable to get out after being seen by others.

In the crowd, when Zhao Yahui heard the sound of the door opening, she looked towards her daughter. A layer of worry appeared in her eyes. It seemed that her daughter wouldn't be able to leave.

"I'll count to three. If no one admits to it, I'll start recording." The host said as he held the disc in his hand.

Zuo Nian bit her lips tightly, wishing she could find a hole to hide in.

Seeing that no one admitted to it, the host put the disc on the computer and pressed the play button. On the big screen appeared the scene of Zuo Nian and Zuo Yi in the washroom.

Zuo Yi took the red wine and splashed it on Zuo Nian as she turned around. Then, she laughed maniacally. At this moment, the screen suddenly became stuck. The camera stopped at the slightly distorted face of Zuo Nian.

"I never thought that the second young miss of the Zuo Family would be so vicious."

"That's right, that's right. I heard that she and Eldest Young Miss are of the same father and mother!"

"Little San, go up!"

Zuo Nian's face was extremely low as she was stuck in the crowd. She did not dare to raise her head because she was afraid that people would recognize her. In order to avoid being recognized, she even scratched her own hair a few times to hide her face.

"I'm sorry, there was some trouble just now. Let's continue playing the video now." As the host said this, he pressed the play button and the camera played out smoothly once again.

On the screen, Zuo Nian threw the half bottle of red wine into the trash can, then left while humming a song. The video recording stopped.

"Ask the person in the video to pay the fine." The host reminded.

"Aiyo, is this second young miss' heart a bit of a pervert!?"

"Right, it's too scary! In the future when I get married, I definitely can't have such a woman!"

"Yeah, yeah."

The chatter in the crowd began again.

Zuo Nian stood motionlessly on the spot, thinking that no one should recognize her. A bass voice suddenly sounded from behind him, "The person in the video looks very similar to you."

The sound was not loud, and everyone around could hear it. They all turned to look at Zuo Nian.

Zuo Nian raised her head with an unyielding attitude. The disdainful gazes of the crowd were like countless sharp swords shooting towards her. There was also disdain, contempt and ridicule mixed in those gazes.

She stood there, as if all the vicious words in the world were thrown at her. Her face was completely red, and she stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Zhao Yahui's face was pale. Originally, she wanted to bring her daughter to meet more rich people, but she didn't expect something like this to happen. Zuo Nian's bad luck all came to her.

Zhao Yahui did not expect to bring her daughter to the banquet. Her daughter's reputation had been ruined.

She was so angry that her face alternated between black and white. She couldn't go to her daughter's side right now. If she went by herself, then the people at the venue would know who she was.

After watching the video, Zuo Yi still felt a bit sad. After all, Zuo Nian had been humiliated, and in front of so many people, she must have felt terrible.

She looked through the crowd, but didn't see Zuo Nian. Had she gone home? Zuo Yi thought.

Lu Shaoqian sat at the side, a light flashed across his hawk-like eyes. His wife was not to be bullied by anyone.

Zuo Nian was embarrassed, but Zuo Linyi was embarrassed.

Therefore, as soon as the banquet ended, he immediately headed out of the banquet hall. Zhao Yahui walked to Zuo Nian's side and told her to leave quickly before she left the banquet hall.

Zuo Nian paid the fine herself, got into her own car, and went home.

After this banquet had ended, everyone knew that Zuo Family's eldest daughter and second daughter were not on good terms, and that the second daughter had a vicious heart.

Back at home, Zuo Nian walked into the living room and heard Zuo Linyi's shout.

"What happened to you? You can't see your sister, right? You're narrow-minded, so how could I have a daughter like you?"

As he spoke, he lifted the teapot by his side and threw it onto the ground. The teapot shattered into pieces.

Zuo Nian had never seen her father so angry. She didn't know what to do, so she just stood there, gritting her teeth. She hated Zuo Yi more than ever.
