After Meng Mu and her old friend toasted, they looked at Li Xiang, who looked unhappy, and followed Li Xiang's gaze to En Ning, who was laughing and chatting with the guests.

En Ning's every move was calm and elegant. A long light cyan skirt made her skin as white as milk, which was priceless.

Enning didn't wear any jewelry today, only a thin silver bracelet on her wrist.

Today was Gu Ruoyan's home game. In order to give makeup to Gu Ruoyan and not steal the limelight from her leading role, Enning only put on light makeup.

Even though En Ning is dressed plainly without any eye-catching outfit, she can still be noticed in the crowd at a glance.

Her nobility and elegance seem to come from her bones, and her soft words and smiles make people dare not look down upon her.

Mother Meng walked towards Li Xiang, looking at Li Xiang's gorgeous jewelry like a Christmas tree and the custom-made haute couture dress specially made for today's banquet, a trace of ridicule appeared on the corner of her lips.

"Are you envious? Or jealous?" Mother Meng said in a low voice, which startled Li Xiang. He quickly looked away and was so submissive in front of Mother Meng that he did not dare to raise his head.

Mother Meng just wanted to see if Li Xiang dared to admit that she had been jealous of En Ning.

Mother Meng just saw Li Xiang chatting intimately with En Ning, and En Ning left with an unhappy expression.

It can be seen that their relationship is not as good as Li wanted to say.

Mother Meng still hopes that Li Xiang will be more pragmatic and not so hypocritical!

Of course Li Xiang would not admit that she was jealous of En Ning.

She immediately smiled and said, "Mom, how could I be jealous of Sister Enning? Sister Enning and I have been on good terms since we were in Yuncheng, and it's been several years! She can be where she is today, from the bottom of my heart, I feel sorry for her." She is so happy! We just made an appointment to go shopping and have a good time together tomorrow!”

Mother Meng didn't say a word, looked at Li Xiang, turned and left.

Li Xiang always wants to use En Ning's identity to make herself appear to be prestigious and be valued by the Meng family.

Her behavior is like a toad crawling on her feet, not biting but responding to others with fear.

Li Xiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Meng's mother gone.

Her mother-in-law always made her feel suffocated and extremely nervous.

Looking up at En Ning again, he saw that En Ning and Autumn were introducing their connections in the circle to Gu Ruoyan, introducing many big shots to Gu Ruoyan. Li Xiang was so angry that he clenched his palms tightly.

Li Xiang once wanted to use his relationship with En Ning at a cocktail party to ask En Ning to help her introduce big shots and help Meng Zhidong make connections so that Meng Zhidong could see her importance, but En Ning failed. Didn't help her.

It’s just a matter of one sentence, what’s wrong with helping me?

Although Li Xiang is now the wife of a wealthy family, her status is completely different from before, and she always looks at people through her nostrils.

Only she knew how nervous and awkward she felt every time she met these big shots in wealthy circles and attended such a cocktail party, and she often had a layer of cold sweat on her palms.

She was also afraid that her words and deeds would be inappropriate and make people laugh at her, and she was even more afraid that they would look down on her because of her background.

En Ning is the only confidence she has to take action.

She didn't understand that everyone was from Yuncheng. If she had married He Lei, she and En Ning would have been relatives and a family. She never thought that En Ning was an outsider. They were twisted together and were in the circle of ladies. Isn’t it good to stick together closely?

Why is En Ning becoming more and more distant from her?

If it's because of Jiang Nan, she didn't do anything wrong!

Jiangnan was so kind to Enning, so Enning shouldn't have been nicer to Jiangnan. What happened to helping Jiangnan when he was in trouble?

Li Xiang stared at En Ning angrily and saw that the guests around him were chatting with familiar friends, but he was alone and no one was paying attention to him. He glanced around and finally found a few noble ladies who often played cards together. He quickly picked up the Skirt went over to say hello.

When several ladies saw Li Xiang covering his mouth and smiling softly, their eyes were speechless, but Li Xiang could not see the ridicule hidden in them.

They deliberately teased Li Xiang. When they heard that the Mu family recognized their goddaughter, they thought the goddaughter they recognized was Li Xiang.

Li Xiang talks about how good his relationship with En Ning is every day. He also says that it is her credit for En Ning to find his biological father. Otherwise, how could En Ning become the eldest daughter of the Mu family?

Even Enning himself didn't know what kind of credit Li Xiang had in this?

Li Xiang, however, said what he said was reasonable and well-founded.

She looked like Enning and the Mu family owed her a huge favor.

Li Xiang's heart was turbulent, but he tried hard to maintain a calm smile on his face, "With our relationship with Sister Enning, do we still think we are goddaughters? We are as close as sisters!"

Several noble ladies started to flatter each other, but the eyes they looked at each other were full of ridicule, which made Li Xiangru feel sad.

She didn't understand, how could these people do it, so clearly they were mocking but it felt like they were complimenting?

It makes people unable to even refute or even want to turn against you!

Li Xiang felt more and more that she was not in the same circle as these people and that she could not fit in.

I made an excuse and headed to the bathroom.

But as soon as she turned around, several ladies laughed louder and louder, whispered to each other, and rolled their eyes at Li Xiang's back from time to time.

Li Xiang and Meng Zhidong only received certificates and did not hold a wedding ceremony, which shows that the Meng family does not recognize Li Xiang.

But Li Xiang didn't have this consciousness, and always regarded himself as the young lady of the Meng family. He also wanted to occupy a place in the circle of ladies with the Meng family's family background, and overshadowed several ladies whose family background was not as good as the Meng family's.

The position and weight in the ladies' circle are determined by the status of each noble lady's mother's family and her husband's family.

With Li Xiang's background and not being recognized by her husband's family, how can she not be ostracized in the circle of ladies?

Everyone looked at her as if they were watching a monkey show, they treated her completely as a toy for fun, and she didn't realize it yet.

One of the noble ladies was worried that she would scare Li Xiang away and she would have no fun in the future, so she hurriedly chased him to the bathroom.

When Li Xiang came out of the bathroom, the lady affectionately pulled Li Xiang back to the banquet hall. Several ladies surrounded Li Xiang, giving Li Xiang a sense of superiority surrounded by others.

Li Xiang wiped away his previous unhappiness and started chatting with everyone.

Maybe he just became sensitive.

Everyone is still very friendly and enthusiastic towards her.

As friends, if you have more contact, the relationship will naturally become closer.

A lady brought a glass of red wine to Li Xiang to taste, and told Li Xiang that it was a collection of the Royal Winery and asked her to have a taste.

Li Xiang didn't know how to taste wine, but he learned a bit from Du Niang, but he still didn't learn the essence.

She pretended to take a sip and thought it tasted a bit like coke with the bubbles gone.

But everyone said it was a good wine and looked forward to her review. She could only nod her head and said seriously, "Good wine, sweet and mellow, with a good taste."

When the ladies heard this, they all burst into laughter. Some laughed so hard that they lost their image, and some laughed so hard that they held their stomachs and burst into tears.

Li Xiang held the goblet and stared at them blankly. After realizing that he had been tricked, his face felt hot.

She was extremely angry, but she didn't dare to have an attack.

She was afraid that it would be harder to integrate into their circle if she broke her reputation, so she could only put down the goblet, hold back tears and ran out.

Meng Zhidong was chatting with his business partners when he noticed Li Xiang running out of the banquet hall and hurriedly chased him out.

Li Xiang squatted in the corner, tears falling down.

"Think about it, what's wrong with you? Is someone bullying you?" Meng Zhidong saw her crying, his shoulders trembled, and he gently supported her.

"No...no!" Li Xiang hurriedly wiped away her tears, not daring to turn around and let Meng Zhidong see her face with makeup, and tried to raise a brisk voice.

"I just...my eyes just don't feel comfortable!"

She didn't dare to say that she was bullied and excluded. She was afraid that Meng Zhidong would find her embarrassing and his feelings for her would change.
