Chapter 157 Her Efforts Are in Vain

Inside Wanda Hotel, most people were still unaware that the Fu family had arrived. Their attention was all focused on the diva Feng Yayin and Hu Yanyan, the eldest daughter of the Hu family.

Feng Yayin was dressed in a revealing white evening gown, exuding elegant charm and extraordinary grace. Hu Yanyan, on the other hand, wore a strapless red long dress, looking sexy, hot and full of allure.

The two of them standing together became the focus of the entire venue.

"Yanyan, thank you for bringing me to this kind of banquet," Feng Yayin said, holding a glass of champagne in her hand and looking at Hu Yanyan with envy on her face.

With the current capabilities of the Feng family, they simply couldn't attend such a banquet. However, the Hu Group was one of the top - listed companies in Beishi. How could the Hu family miss out on such a banquet?

Hu Yanyan gracefully curled up her lips: "Yayin, we're sisters. Why say so much? I know the Feng family is not as prosperous as before, but it doesn't matter. As long as we're sisters..."

"I know you're the best to me, Yanyan," Feng Yayin said, hugging Hu Yanyan with a touched look on her face.

"Yanyan—" Mr. Hu called out to her softly.

Hu Yanyan gently pushed Feng Yayin away: "Yayin, you know that the more important the banquet, the busier I am. I still have some things to attend to. I'll find you later."

"Okay," Feng Yayin nodded.

But after Hu Yanyan left, Feng Yayin couldn't maintain the smile on her face anymore.

What good sisters! When the Feng family was in prosperity, Hu Yanyan used to follow her around every day. But now? The Feng family was in trouble, and she had to rely on Hu Yanyan's good graces just to attend this kind of banquet!

Once she made a comeback... she would make these people kneel and beg for her forgiveness!

"This is my granddaughter - in - law of the Fu family, the young mistress of the Fu family, Feng Yu," Mrs. Fu said with a smile, introducing Feng Yu's identity to others.

Feng Yu?

Hearing these two words, Feng Yayin's eyes were filled with a venomous look as she looked in the direction of the voice.

"Hello, I'm Feng Yu," Feng Yu said, holding a glass of champagne and returning the greeting.

"I've long heard of Miss Feng Yu's name. I didn't expect the third young mistress of the Fu family to be so young and beautiful. I heard that you've also invested in a company, and it's doing quite well," a guest said.

Feng Yu gracefully covered her mouth and said modestly, "It's just for fun. How can it compare to the proper businesses of big brothers and you guys? Moreover, it was Grandma who gave her consent for this investment. It's all Grandma's credit."

"Mrs. Fu really has good judgment," another person complimented.

Suddenly, many people walked up to Feng Yu and flattered her in various ways.

"I didn't expect that this widow is so capable. Mrs. Fu values her so much. We can't afford to offend this person. We have to treat her well," someone whispered.

"Yeah, let's go up and offer her a toast quickly to see if we can make friends with the third young mistress," another person said.

Feng Yayin stood there, watching as many young ladies from noble families rushed to offer a toast to Feng Yu and vied to be her friend. She felt extremely uncomfortable.

She even wanted to crush the glass in her hand!

Looking at Feng Yu now, she suddenly recalled the past. In the old days, this kind of treatment of being the center of attention should have belonged to her, Feng Yayin!

Not this bitch Feng Yu!

Why did she have to endure family ruin and have to look at others' faces just to attend a banquet, while Feng Yu had become the young mistress of the Fu family overnight, and even Mrs. Fu was introducing her to everyone?

Why?

Feng Yayin gritted her teeth, and her eyes showed a hint of venom. She would never let this bitch Feng Yu be happy for too long!

Suddenly, she thought of Hu Yanyan. A smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She picked up her champagne and walked up to Hu Yanyan, saying casually, "Yanyan, look, isn't that Young Master Bai?"

Young Master Bai?

Hu Yanyan looked in the direction Feng Yayin was pointing at.

Sure enough, Bai Shaoting was dressed in a white evening gown and just walked up to Feng Yu. She couldn't hear what they were talking about, but Bai Shaoting was actually smiling and chatting with her!

Why... no matter how hard she tried, Bai Shaoting never even gave her a second look. But Feng Yu, just a widow of the Fu family, could make Bai Shaoting smile and talk to her.

Hu Yanyan frowned, looking at Feng Yu with a hostile look in her eyes.

No, she would never let that widow succeed!

Seeing Hu Yanyan's hostile look, Feng Yayin's mouth curled up slightly.

It seemed that there was going to be a good show here.

Sure enough, Hu Yanyan picked up the champagne in her hand. With a few noble young ladies following her, she walked right up to the three of them and said with a smile, "Feng Yu!"

Facing Hu Yanyan's interruption, Mrs. Fu was obviously a bit unhappy. Her eyes turned cold.

Hu Yanyan was stunned! She thought that by mentioning Feng Yu chatting happily with Bai Shaoting in front of Mrs. Fu, she could make Mrs. Fu angry and scold Feng Yu for being unchaste...

But she didn't expect that Mrs. Fu would actually side with Feng Yu?

"Mrs. Fu," Hu Yanyan quickly apologized in a panic. "Sorry, I didn't know you were here. I know Feng Yu and Brother Shaoting have a private acquaintance, so I wanted to ask her to help me..."

Suddenly, her face turned a bit pale. She realized she had said something wrong and quickly corrected herself, "Oh no, that's not what I meant..."

Hu Yanyan's words carried a hidden meaning.

Under the pretext of asking Feng Yu for help, she implied that there was a private relationship between them. Then she quickly changed her words, pretending to have said something wrong and denying it immediately.

However, this seemingly - denial actually emphasized that they did have a private acquaintance.

Everyone looked at the four of them and started whispering among themselves.

"After all, the third young mistress is only eighteen years old, and she's very beautiful. She became a widow right after getting married. Even if the Fu family gives her a lot, she can't stand the loneliness," someone whispered.

"Really? Does that mean there's really something going on between her and Young Master Bai?" another person asked.

"Maybe. According to the rules of the Fu family, Feng Yu can divorce her late husband after three years! Isn't she just looking for a new partner in advance? After leaving the Fu family, the Bai family is also a good choice," a third person speculated.

Hearing what the people around were saying about Feng Yu, Hu Yanyan was very pleased, but on the surface, she pretended to be embarrassed and tried to defend Feng Yu, "You guys, don't misunderstand Feng Yu! She's not that kind of person. Although she has taken the initiative to find Brother Shaoting a few times..."

Taken the initiative to find Bai Shaoting?

This was a good line. It once again showed that there was indeed a private relationship between them, and it also emphasized that it was Feng Yu who took the initiative, having nothing to do with Bai Shaoting.

Hearing Hu Yanyan's words, everyone present couldn't help but imagine more about their relationship. The rumors about Feng Yu became even more malicious.

"This young mistress is really something. She not only manages to please Mrs. Fu but also knows how to seduce other men to plan for her future," someone said.

"Shh! Keep your voice down. Can't you see Mrs. Fu's face is extremely bad?" another person warned.

Mrs. Fu's face darkened. Her eyes became sharper and colder: "Feng Yu!"
