Wen Sining seemed quite calm, with a faint smile on her face.
The stylist stood there at a loss, thinking that Mrs. Lu was really well - mannered.
"Shanshan, are you sure you really want to wear this to the venue?" Wen Sining had to remind her carefully.
But to Chen Shanshan, these words meant something else.
"Cousin - in - law, it's just a dress. Why can't you let it go to me? Besides, I'm obviously more suitable for this dress. I think you'd better not grab things that don't belong to you." As Chen Shanshan said, she scanned Wen Sining up and down, clearly showing a look of disdain.
Just as the stylist was about to step in to smooth things over, Wen Sining stopped her and just looked at Chen Shanshan again.
"Are you sure you really want to wear this?"
This only strengthened Chen Shanshan's determination. She just liked to snatch other people's things.
"Cousin - in - law, it's just a set of clothes. Don't be so stingy. Cousin has always doted on me. If he knew about this, what do you think the result would be?" Chen Shanshan said, with a calculating look in her eyes.
Wen Sining nodded. Maybe Lu Luochen doted on Chen Shanshan.
"Okay, since you insist, I have no objections."
The two of them left the styling room, one in black and the other in red.
To avoid being stuck with Chen Shanshan, Lu Luochen sent a message in advance, saying that he wouldn't come to greet them in person but would go to the venue first and wait for them.
After hearing this news, Chen Shanshan inevitably showed a look of regret. Wen Sining saw it but didn't say a word.
The two of them took the same car. The atmosphere in the car was a bit strange.
Probably feeling too stuffy, Chen Shanshan started to make small talk.
"Cousin - in - law, do you know that Cousin and I used to play very well when we were kids? If anyone dared to bully me back then, he would always be the first one to stand up for me." Chen Shanshan's words were deliberately pointed.
But Wen Sining pretended not to understand.
"Well, it seems that the two of you have a really good relationship."
Chen Shanshan was stunned and couldn't help but look at Wen Sining. But there was nothing wrong with the expression on her face. It seemed as if she was really not angry.
"Cousin once said that he would marry me when we grew up." Chen Shanshan took out her trump card, looking serious as if it was really the case.
Wen Sining suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard that she leaned forward and backward, with her eyebrows as beautiful as a painting.
"What... What are you laughing at?" Chen Shanshan was a bit annoyed.
Wen Sining shook her head. "I'm laughing at your naivety, Miss Chen. Haven't you heard the saying 'children's words are innocent'? Or have you been abroad for so long that you don't know the rules in China? Let me tell you. You two are close relatives. The law will never recognize your marriage."
"I... I didn't mean that at all. I just want to tell you that Cousin doesn't like someone like you." Chen Shanshan was so angry that her hands were clenched into fists.
"How do you know what kind of person I am? Maybe I'm different in front of him." Wen Sining raised her eyebrows, thinking that this younger sister was really inexperienced.
"You finally admit that you're a two - faced person. I'll tell Cousin later." Chen Shanshan thought she had caught Wen Sining's weakness and was extremely happy.
Wen Sining was too lazy to pay attention to her. The two of them chatted casually until they arrived at the venue.
Mrs. Qin was a well - known figure in the upper class. As long as it was a banquet hosted by her, it would surely be crowded with guests and extremely lively.
Top - notch people from all walks of life and well - known and glamorous entertainers all gathered here. There were even many reporters at the entrance, just to catch a glimpse of the grand occasion of this banquet.
"Cousin!" Chen Shanshan saw Lu Luochen from afar. Almost as soon as the car stopped, she rushed towards him.
But Lu Luochen only had eyes for his own wife. Before Chen Shanshan came over, he had already picked up the shawl in his hand and walked towards Wen Sining.
"Why did you choose this dress?" His tone was a bit complaining. After all, Wen Sining seemed too sexy and charming tonight.
She was his wife. How could he tolerate other people's gazes on her? He wrapped the shawl tightly around Wen Sining, even using keeping warm as an excuse.
Wen Sining looked at his smart - alecky look and was too lazy to argue with him.
The two were walking in arm in arm when Chen Shanshan suddenly walked over and blocked their way.
As soon as Lu Luochen saw the dress on her, his face immediately changed.
"Shanshan, who allowed you to wear this dress?"
Chen Shanshan originally planned to show off, but who would have thought that as soon as she came over, she was met with her cousin's cold face. She immediately looked like she was about to cry.
"Cousin - in - law, is it really necessary for you to do this? I just snatched a dress you liked. I've already told you that you're not suitable for such a bright color. For such a small thing, you actually went and told Cousin?"
Wen Sining shrugged. "Sorry, I didn't say anything."
As soon as she said this, the atmosphere became a bit awkward. Especially Chen Shanshan, who immediately realized how stupid her behavior just now was. Self - exposing like this was really something only a fool would do.
Hearing this, a shadow flashed in Lu Luochen's eyes.
"Are you sure you really want to wear this dress?" Out of kindness, he still reminded her. But after all, Chen Shanshan was the daughter of Chen Yuanshan. Even if she really did something out of line, it would only be the Chen family that would lose face.
"Cousin, why are you also on this woman's side? I'm going to wear this dress. No one can stop me!" Chen Shanshan felt that the couple was ganging up on her.
After thinking about it, she simply pulled the dress down a bit, revealing her beautiful cleavage, and then swayed her waist and walked in slowly.
She originally thought she would outshine everyone, but only after entering did Chen Shanshan realize something was wrong.
The moment she entered, she did immediately become the focus of everyone. She saw everyone turning their heads, but not because of her beauty. It was because the red color on her stood out so much against the sea of black.
Before she could react, Chen Yuanshan had already come over scolding.
"What on earth are you doing? Today is Mr. Qin's memorial dinner. You're dressed so festively. Are you afraid that Mrs. Qin will have a good relationship with our family?"
Just as Chen Yuanshan was about to push Chen Shanshan out, Mrs. Qin had already noticed this side.
