Mrs. Li smiled kindly and joked: "Xiao Rong, after all these years, your way of striking up conversations is still so old-fashioned."

Mrs. Rong stared at Qiao Yuyue without blinking, shaking her head and waving her hands.

"I'm telling you the truth, this kid feels very familiar to me."

Qiao Yuyue smiled politely.

She searched her mind for information about Mrs. Rong, but found nothing. Maybe it's a patient that "Yu Ran" has seen?

"Okay, it's almost time, and you have to go on stage to speak." Mrs. Li urged.

Deep in the woods in the backyard of the manor.

The secret guard said: "Miss, are you serious about not going to the old lady's birthday?"

Rong Lingshan shook her head disdainfully: "There's no need to show up."

"When I return to Hong Kong City, I can't just have this kind of reputation. What's more, even if I don't go, I will still be the most favored one in the Rong family."

She motioned to the secret guard to hand over the phone.

She dialed Mrs. Rong's number and just said a few words, making Mrs. Rong happy and laughing.

Mrs. Rong agreed on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, okay, when you come back, grandma will welcome you in style."

The phone hangs up.

Rong Lingshan's tone was gloomy. She knew that Qiao Yuyue was difficult to deal with. It was really a good fortune for her to survive back then!

"Get the jade pendant as soon as possible and get rid of her."

Qiao Yuyue was originally difficult to deal with, but she didn't expect that Li Changting would also protect this bitch.

Just wait, as long as she comes back, everything will fall apart.

"Oh, yes, I also prepared a small gift for her, remember to send it over."

Inside the manor.

The crowd was surging, and Qiao Yuyue carefully observed the surrounding situation.

She knew the Rong family was in danger, but she didn't dare to gamble with her baby's safety.

"Ah! Sorry, sorry, let me wipe it for you."

A waiter hurried past with a wine glass and accidentally bumped into Qiao Yuyue. The latter subconsciously protected his stomach and held on to the chair next to him to prevent him from falling.

But the collision was so severe that all the wine in the waiter's tray spilled onto her sky-blue dress. The upper body of the dress was almost completely soaked, and it lay softly on her body, making it impossible to wear it.

The waiter trembled, knowing that he had made a big mistake.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. How much does this dress cost? I know I can't afford it. I..."

She cried and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy.

"Someone just bumped into me, and I just..."

The waitress has been doing this job for many years and has never made such a stupid mistake. Someone really hit her, more like it was intentional.

"Don't worry, it's okay, I'll go change some clothes."

"Thank you, thank you, please come this way."

The waiter led Qiao Yuyue to the backstage.

She was keenly aware that the surroundings were quiet. The waiter didn't look like he was pretending, but it didn't rule out that someone was taking advantage of this ignorant little girl.

A dazzling array of evening gowns are displayed in the spare cloakroom.

One piece is more revealing than the other, or else it is extremely flashy, ridiculously red, overwhelming, and impossible to wear.

Qiao Yuyue searched around with her eyes. Finally, it landed on a light blue dress, similar in color to her original dress, hanging in the corner.

"I can do it myself. You can go out first." Qiao Yuyue took off her wet clothes, wiped the wine stains off her body with a paper towel, and then put on a light blue evening dress.

This evening dress seemed to have been carefully prepared for her. The size and length were just right.

Qiao Yuyue checked it carefully and found that there was nothing unusual about the dress.

Is it possible that this is all just a coincidence? She was worrying too much.

She walked out of the prep locker room.

Outside, everyone had taken their seats. On the open-air birthday stage, Mrs. Rong was holding a microphone, thanking all the guests for their patronage, and also elaborated on the future development direction of the Rong family in Hong Kong City.

It is admirable for an old woman who is almost eighty years old to still have such unique insights into business.

Qiao Yuyue bent down slightly and walked through the crowd to where she was supposed to be.

But the sound on the stage suddenly stopped.

Mrs. Rong, who was making an impassioned speech, stared directly at Qiao Yuyue. He was silent at first, and then became extremely excited.

Her fingers holding the phone were trembling.

Others also looked at Qiao Yuyue, and for a moment, they didn't know what happened.

The butler next to the stage changed his expression and roared loudly.

"Who allowed you to wear this dress? Who allowed you to wear this? Leave now!"

"Don't leave." The old lady on the stage had a heavy cry in her words. She stumbled down the stage and ran in front of Qiao Yuyue, chanting incessantly.

"Yan'er, Yan'er——"

This shocked Mrs. Li beside her.

Mrs. Li quickly protected Qiao Yuyue.

The housekeeper scolded Qiao Yuyue.

"These are the clothes of our old lady's deceased daughter. How can you wear them?"

Upon closer inspection, Qiao Yuyue looks a bit like Miss Yan'er. No wonder the old lady was so excited.

Comments and complaints rang out from the surroundings, and they all reprimanded Qiao Yuyue.

"Who is he? His intentions are too evil! He wore his dead daughter's clothes at someone else's birthday party."

"Qiao Yuyue? Isn't this the person who sent her sister to prison and almost forced her to death!"

"This woman is so vicious. What grudge does the old lady of the Rong family have against her?"

For a time, Qiao Yuyue was criticized by thousands of people.

Mrs. Rong kept calling Yan'er.

His eyes were blurry and his voice was sobbing.

As the distance got closer, Qiao Yuyue immediately realized something was wrong.

Judging from the previous conversations and chats, Mrs. Rong is smart, wise, and has good control over her emotions. More importantly, she just said that she looks very much like an old friend and is very familiar to her.

But she didn't have any symptoms just now, but the reaction was so big when she saw her wearing this skirt.

There is definitely something wrong with this!

The housekeeper pushed Qiao Yuyue away, but the woman was firm.

"Don't move, she's been poisoned!"

"Stop talking nonsense. Where is the security guard? Hurry up and drive this woman out who is trying to harm the old lady!"

The housekeeper said plausibly: "Don't forget to take off her clothes. These belong to Miss Yan'er and it's not her turn to wear them yet."

The Rong family are not ordinary people. Even if Mrs. Li is here, Mrs. Rong loses consciousness and no one gives her face.

Qiao Yuyue didn't want to make the matter a big deal, but the housekeeper insisted on stirring up trouble.

More importantly, Mrs. Rong's current illness must be treated, otherwise her life may be in danger.

A bunch of idiots who don't make any sense.

Qiao Yuyue felt a little impatient in her heart.

When the situation is critical.

A calm and serious male voice sounded from behind.

"Everyone stop it."

"I think whoever touches her is going against me, Li Changting."

Qiao Yuyue's reputation and status were not as good as those of Li Changting. When the man appeared, the people around him who had been booing just now were all silent and silent.
