Meng Xiao followed Yang Yi around the room, offering toasts. Regardless of how closely related they were, the uncles, aunts, and cousins all rewarded her with thick red envelopes, some of them even slipped heavy Dragon and Phoenix Bracelets onto her hand. Wu Yue followed behind Meng Xiao, carrying the designer handbag she had presented to Meng Xiao a few days earlier, stashing all the red envelopes Meng Xiao received into this bag.
She interacted with Meng Xiao in an intimate manner, occasionally whispering to one another. To the onlooking guests, these two appeared to have a genuine friendship, untarnished and sincere.
But Meng Xiao's reactions were rather aloof. Facing Wu Yue's affectionate gestures, she maintained a poker face, and in comparison, they looked more like a mistress and her serving maid.
Yesterday, it was Yang Yi's comment, that finally made her replace Ye Siyu with Wu Yue.
