Chapter 256: Face-to-face confrontation, Tang An's face was swollen from being slapped!
Tang An appeared to be speaking up for Jiang Ning, but in reality, he was confirming that Jiang Ning was feeling guilty.
Song Yu looked at Tang An and continued, "An'an, I think you're just too kind. You think everything is so simple. Your tea party is at the Shi family manor. What important thing could possibly prevent Miss Shi from even attending her own tea party? If you're guilty, you're guilty. An'an, what excuse are you making for her?"
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoling immediately chimed in, "I think Song Yu is right. She must be feeling guilty. An'an, don't make excuses for her."
The others all nodded in agreement.
Tang An's lips curled slightly, his eyes filled with smugness.
This is just the beginning!
Wait!
The best is yet to come.
Tang An adjusted his expression and looked at the butler beside him, "Uncle Liu, Sheng Bao must be in some kind of predicament. Go and invite her quickly."
"Yes, Miss Cousin."
Just as the butler was about to leave, Tang An called him back, "Wait a moment."
The butler stopped and turned to look at Tang An. "Miss Tang, is there anything else you need?"
Tang An smiled and said, "I've invited my maternal grandmother as well. Today's tea party is so lively, gathering all the important figures in our capital. How could it be complete without her?"
She had to make sure that Old Madam Shi could see Jiang Ning humiliated in front of everyone and witness how she rose to prominence!
“Okay,” the butler nodded.
Tang An then added, "Remember, you must invite Sheng Bao over!"
After the butler left.
Song Yu looked at Tang An, "An'an, do you believe it or not, your cousin definitely won't dare to come!"
A look of hesitation flashed across Tang An's face. "I think... I don't think my sister is that kind of person."
At this point, Tang An sighed, "Actually, it's fine if she doesn't come. I don't blame her."
Song Yu narrowed her eyes. "I think she really has no manners. Her sister is hosting a tea party at home, and she not only doesn't come, but she also has to be invited three or four times!"
Su Xiaoling laughed and said, "What kind of upbringing can someone who grew up in the countryside have?"
Upon hearing this, everyone else burst out laughing.
"Hahaha!"
"Is this what good upbringing means for Miss Song and Miss Su—to gossip behind people's backs?" Before she even arrived, her voice preceded her. Jiang Ning walked in from outside, looking at Song Yu and Su Xiaoling, her red lips slightly parted, "The upbringing of the Song and Su families has truly broadened my horizons!"
Jiang Ning's voice was somewhat indifferent.
Yet it carried an immense pressure that made it almost impossible for people to breathe.
Su Xiaoling and Song Yu were stunned and extremely embarrassed.
Neither of them expected Jiang Ning to appear at this moment!
Wasn't she afraid to come?
That country girl has a sharp tongue.
At this moment, almost everyone's eyes were on Jiang Ning.
She was wearing a light purple Chanel-style suit.
The Chanel-inspired style of clothing is very selective in terms of who can pull it off, and the light purple color that Jiang Ning chose is particularly difficult to wear. Even people with slightly less attractive looks and temperament would look dull and lackluster in this outfit.
But when Jiang Ning put on this outfit, she exuded an air of nobility, making one think of four words: .
A beauty of unparalleled grace.
Song Yu tried her best to suppress the embarrassment on her face, looked at Jiang Ning, and forced a smile, "Miss Shi, I, we didn't mean that? Please don't be so aggressive."
"What do you mean by that?" Jiang Ning turned her head slightly. "Do you two think it's something to be proud of to gossip behind each other's backs?"
Su Xiaoling hadn't expected Jiang Ning to be so unforgiving, and couldn't help but say, "Miss Shi, you..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Jiang Ning interrupted her, "Shut up!"
Tang An spoke up at this moment, "Shengbao, Miss Song and Miss Su are both my guests after all, you should give me..."
Jiang Ning turned to Tang An, "You shut up too!"
The four simple words made Tang An's face turn pale, as if she hadn't expected Jiang Ning to be so disrespectful to her.
Jiang Ning found a seat and looked at Su Xiaoling and Song Yu, frowning slightly. "Both the Su family head and the Song family head are reasonable people. How could they have raised such daughters?"
After saying that, Jiang Ning looked at Tang An and asked, "Cousin, do you usually hang out with people like this?"
Jiang Ning is the heir of the Shi family.
Su Xiaoling and Song Yu seemed to be saying that Jiang Ning was ill-mannered, but in reality they were putting down the Shi family's reputation and praising Tang An.
Since that's the case, Jiang Ning naturally couldn't let this matter pass so easily.
Jiang Ning's words were deeply hurtful.
Unfortunately, Tang An had no way to refute it and could only swallow this bitter pill.
Little bitch!
What a little bitch!
How can she have such a sharp tongue?
snort!
Celia is coming soon, and she wants to see how long Jiang Ning can be so smug!
Tang An's lowered eyes were filled with sinister light.
Not only Tang An couldn't refute it, but neither could Song Yu and Su Xiaoling. After all, they had made a mistake first and were caught red-handed by Jiang Ning. If they were to refute it now, it would only make them seem even more ill-mannered.
After all, those attending today's tea party are all prominent figures in Beijing.
Song Yu swallowed her anger and walked up to Jiang Ning. "Miss Shi, I misspoke just now. I apologize and hope you won't hold it against me."
Upon hearing Song Yu's apology, Su Xiaoling realized the seriousness of the matter. She walked to Song Yu's side and apologized as well, "Miss Shi, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I hope you can forgive my rudeness."
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, "It is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them. I hope that Miss Song and Miss Su will not repeat the same mistake next time."
Su Xiaoling was furious, but she managed to keep a straight face. She could only force a smile and say gently, "Miss Shi is right. I assure you, I will never do it again."
The guests in the banquet hall nodded in approval at this sight, exclaiming, "Miss Shi's move was absolutely brilliant!"
"Yes, their adaptability is textbook-level."
"..."
As soon as Madam Shi entered, she heard everyone praising Jiang Ning, and her face immediately lit up with a smile, she was extremely pleased.
Sure enough, the Shi family's granddaughter did not disappoint her!
Seeing that the old lady had already come in, and the topic was still Jiang Ning, Tang An was naturally unwilling. She narrowed her eyes. Miss Ryan's flight was at 12 o'clock, and she wouldn't arrive for a while.
During this period, she needs to get everyone to praise her.
Just then, Guang Yingxue walked over from the side and said with a smile, "An'an, congratulations! Not only is Miss Ryan coming to give you a jade pendant today, but I also heard that the thirteenth young master of the Si family is going to confess his feelings to you in public! By the way, when did he start liking you?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze turned towards Tang An, and everyone was curious about when Si Qiming had started to like Tang An.
"Brother Qiming fell in love with me at first sight," Tang An replied, her face flushed.
Does Si Qiming like Tang An? Or was it love at first sight?
Is he going to confess his feelings at this banquet?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow slightly and looked at Tang An, "How come I didn't know my thirteenth brother liked you?"
As the younger sister, she naturally couldn't let Tang An distort the facts.
What if Si Qiming starts dating one day, and his future sister-in-law hears Tang An's remarks and a misunderstanding arises between them?
Tang An looked at Jiang Ning and said with a smile, "Sheng Bao, although you and Brother Qiming are siblings, a brother can't tell his sister everything. Brother Qiming did fall in love with me at first sight."
"Anyway, Brother Qiming will be at the banquet hall soon. You can ask him yourself then."
By the end, Tang An was filled with a look of pure joy.
Jiang Ning continued, "My thirteenth brother is currently on vacation in Melbourne, so he doesn't have time to attend your tea party."
After saying that, Jiang Ning opened WeChat and dialed Si Qiming's WeChat.
Soon, the call connected with Si Qiming, and his handsome, refined face appeared on the screen.
"Hey, Shengbao~~"
"Thirteenth Brother," Jiang Ning said loudly, her voice booming as she spoke on speakerphone, "I heard you're going to confess to the person you like today?"
When Jiang Ning and Si Qiming made a video call to Si Qiming, everyone in the banquet hall turned to look at them, wanting to see if Si Qiming really liked Tang An.
“Yes!” Si Qiming nodded, somewhat surprised, and asked, “But, Sheng Bao, how did you know?”
Only he knows about this!
Could it be that his sister and he are telepathically connected?
Upon hearing Si Qiming's answer, Tang An's face was full of smugness.
Look!
She knew that Si Qiming liked her.
She had originally planned to have Si Qiming confess his feelings to her in the banquet hall.
It seems that Si Qiming is about to confess his feelings to her through the screen.
“Tang An told me,” Jiang Ning continued, “Tang An said you like her.”
"Tang An?" Si Qiming was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head. "Who is Tang An? Meng Nu, right? Why would I confess to her!"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone in the banquet hall immediately changed, as if they had stumbled upon some juicy gossip.
Soon, Si Qiming's voice came from the other end again, "Shengbao, don't listen to those people outside talking nonsense. I don't like Tang An or Zhou An! The person I like is Vivian Jones, and I'm going to confess to Vivian in Melbourne today!"
