When Lin Gantang saw it, she picked it up with a dark expression.

She scrolled back and saw photo after photo, all of which were of Wen Yanqing. She even saw the photo of Wen Yanqing barbecuing for her on the day of the New Year’s party.

They had all been secretly taken.

Xing You’s expression changed drastically. She used all her strength to hit Wang Yingying’s chest with her elbow. She struggled to break free while Wang Yingying was in pain, rushing forward and snatching the phone from Lin Gantang’s hand.

The phone belonged to Xing You.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Xing You’s thoughts were exposed.

“Did you do it on purpose!” Xing You glared at Gan Minglu.

“What do you mean on purpose? Everyone saw that you pushed me, so I accidentally dropped your phone.” Gan Minglu felt indignant. “You left your phone on the banquet table. I was kind enough to help you get it so that you wouldn’t lose it, and you’re still scolding me?”

Xing You was so angry that her eyes turned red.

“Heh.” Lin Gantang sneered. “No wonder you cursed Yanqing to be blind and scolded me for putting on an act. It turns out that it’s all sour grapes. You’re mocking others here to calm your own heart.”

After being exposed, Xing You felt that the people around her were looking at her strangely. She gritted her teeth and made up her mind. “So what if I like Wen Yanqing? There are plenty of people in C City who like Wen Yanqing. Who are you to interfere?”

Wang Yingying saw Xing You looking at her and immediately waved her hand. “No, no, no. I don’t like Wen Yanqing. I’m not worthy of him. Xing You, don’t look at me.”

Gan Minglu looked straight into her eyes. “Don’t look at me either. I don’t have anyone I like. I’m waiting for my family to arrange a blind date.”

Xing You’s face turned pale.

Her chest heaved. She was embarrassed and angry. “Who I like is my business. Did I disturb you? Song Jinwen likes your brother. Is it illegal to like someone?” “It’s not against the law to like someone, but it’s your fault for talking nonsense about others,” Wang Yingying mumbled.

The place where she was hit by Xing You still hurt.

At this moment, Qin Xicheng came over. He looked at what was going on and ignored the others. He greeted Lin Gantang. “Miss Lin.”

“Mr. Qin.”

“I see that you two seem to have a conflict. Is there anything I can help you with?” Qin Xicheng asked.

Qin Xicheng was Qin Jiayao’s second cousin. Today, he was helping his uncle, Qin Jiayao’s father, entertain the guests.

When Xing You saw Qin Xicheng coming over, she immediately shut up. However, Lin Gantang saw Gu Zhichuan standing not far behind Qin Xicheng. “I’m fine.” Lin Gantang retracted her gaze and looked at Xing You coldly. “I noticed that Xing You’s blush is a little light. I used my palm to help her replenish it. There’s no need to trouble you.”

Only then did Qin Xicheng look at Xing You. He glanced at her face and thought for a while. After confirming that there was no such person he could recall, he asked, “Is this lady a guest invited by the Qin family? Is it convenient for me to see your invitation?”

“I came in with a friend,” said Xing You awkwardly.

“I’m sorry, the Qin family has sent invitations to every guest. If you’re not a guest invited by the Qin family, please leave.” Qin Xicheng’s tone was very easy-going, but the words he said made Xing You feel ashamed.

Indeed, the Qin family did not invite anyone from the Xing family. When Xing You heard that the Qin family was holding a big engagement banquet, she wanted to come over and take a look, so she followed her friend in.

Who would chase someone away from a celebration when they found out that there was an extra person? They were all people who cared about their reputation and would not do such petty things. So when Xing You heard Qin Xicheng asking her to leave, her tongue was no longer as sharp as before. She picked up her bag with embarrassment. “I’m going to the bathroom.”

Then, she walked away quickly, probably in a hurry..
