Chapter 155: Chapter 155: The Inhumane Gift
Bai Xue, who was over fifty, still maintained exceptionally good looks, her skin as white and radiant as snow, true to her name.
Her attire was a white off-the-shoulder cocktail dress glittering with a luminescent sheen, as if she feared others might not recognize her as a lady of high society.
“Xiao Li, distribute everything to everyone,” Bai Xue instructed the servant as she handed out gifts, all the while smiling, “Our Xinyu has been under everyone’s care. Consider these small gifts a token of my gratitude.”
Meanwhile, everyone had already received a gift.
“Wow, isn’t this DIOR’s latest handbag?”
“My God, I’ve long had my eyes on this watch, it sells for 120,000!”
“Too lavish, this silk scarf is priced no less than six figures.”
…
As everyone opened their gifts, they couldn’t help but exclaim.
These weren’t just small tokens; each gift was worth a base of six figures.
Recently, there had been rumors that Ye Xinyu and Gu Zuocheng had broken up.
Now who would dare spread such nonsense!

Clearly, Ye Xinyu was already acknowledged by the Gu Family as the future daughter-in-law, a deal sealed for sure.
While everyone looked on with envy, they sneakily glanced towards Ye Shu and Ou Linlin sitting in the corner of the rest area.
The servant brought them gifts too.
However, neither of them even bothered to open theirs.
“I see Ye Shu is really hurt this time, her former future mother-in-law actually came to support the current would-be daughter-in-law right in front of her.”
“Who’s to say otherwise! What do you think Mrs. Gu gave Ye Shu?”
“Definitely something flashy, I bet it’s worth as much as what Ye Shu earned for this movie!”
…
Ye Xinyu watched as everyone took their gifts and envied her, her vanity thoroughly satisfied.
The frustration she had felt from being bullied just now by Sun Nanjue, Ou Linlin, and Ye Shu vanished like smoke.
She withdrew her hand from Mi Taotao, stepped forward diligently, and embraced Bai Xue’s arm, “Auntie, why did you come in person? I should have come to visit you.”
“Still calling me auntie? We’re going to be family soon, call me mom!” Bai Xue, her face beaming with a smile, pulled Ye Xinyu to sit down.
Ye Xinyu, thrilled inside, shyly lowered her head and sweetly called out, “Mom…” but her peripheral vision was casting sidelong glances towards Ye Shu.
Ye Shu, look closely, your favorite man, Gu Zuocheng, is already in my pocket!
“Dear, let mom take a good look at you, you’ve lost weight these days,” Bai Xue said, stroking her temple, but then her expression suddenly changed, “Oh, Xinyu, what happened to your face? Why are there so many slap marks, who hit you?”
Ye Xinyu quickly raised her hand, covering her face, and with a timid look, she glanced towards Ye Shu and Ou Linlin.
Then, pretending to be unsettled, she shook her head, “It’s nothing, just an accident while filming…”
“An accident? I suspect it was intentional,” Bai Xue stood up and walked directly towards Ye Shu.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the drama to unfold.
Ye Shu was originally Gu Zuocheng’s fiancée, and her replacement by Ye Xinyu as the bride on the night of the engagement banquet was public knowledge in Jin City.
Seeing the relationship between Ye Xinyu and Bai Xue, it was clear to any observant person how much Bai Xue liked Ye Xinyu.
This stance was clearly meant to support Ye Xinyu.
Watching Bai Xue approach her, Ye Shu’s brows slightly furrowed.
When she had been with Gu Zuocheng, Ye Shu had known how power-hungry Bai Xue was.
Now, Bai Xue suddenly coming to support Ye Xinyu, one would assume it was due to Ye Shengli’s recent high profile.
Ye Shu nonchalantly took out a cigarette, lit it, and smoked leisurely.
As Bai Xue approached, she languidly exhaled a puff of smoke.
The smoke sprayed directly in Bai Xue’s face.
