Chapter 4048: Chapter 4048: Sorry, You Can’t Stay Here
Tang Ning was more direct, nodding at her own wine glass with her chin and looked up with a smile: "This, ah, is my way of offering an apology first to Miss Li."
"What do you mean?" Li Mo’s smile slightly faded.
"I’ll drink first." Tang Ning didn’t give her the chance to ask for clarity and downed the glass in front of everyone.
Then she put down the glass, straightened up, and once again looked at Li Mo, calmly saying: "It’s like this, Miss Li. I arranged this gathering today mainly to welcome my friend."
Li Mo had already guessed what the other party was about to say next, it was just unbelievable that she would do this.
"You can see that everyone here today is a close friend within our circle. My friend is introverted, shy, and rather timid. So..."
Tang Ning not only did it, but she did it openly.
"...so would it be possible for Miss Li to leave?" She even asked the other party, exceedingly politely.
At least in terms of attitude, Li Mo couldn’t find fault.
But what the other party said and did was undoubtedly a slap in her face in front of everyone!
No matter how polite and nice the attitude, what use is it?
Li Mo’s breathing quickened; she could hardly believe her ears. She shot up, staring intensely at Tang Ning’s beautiful face.
Tang Ning maintained a smile: "Lu Yue wasn’t clear about the nature of today’s gathering before bringing you here. We’ve already spoken to him about it. Our apologies for any trouble caused, and I ask for your understanding, Miss Li."
"You..."
Li Mo was so choked up she almost toppled over.
The way she said it seemed polite to her, but who present wasn’t astute enough to hear the insinuation that Lu Yue shouldn’t have brought her along?
No wonder Lu Yue gave her a reproachful look when she walked in.
It turned out he got scolded for bringing her!
Li Mo was so angry she leaned back, dug her nails deep into her palms until the pain pierced her central nerves, forcing herself to calm down.
"Miss Li?" Tang Ning was signaling her with her eyes to leave, even standing face-to-face with her, not budging an inch.
Li Mo had never been so humiliated in her life; she bit her lip fiercely, glaring at Tang Ning’s beautiful face: "It’s Miss Tang, right? I’ll remember you."
Tang Ning shrugged indifferently, her mouth still speaking in polite platitudes: "...Oh, my pleasure."
"Ha!" Li Mo’s face twitched as she spun around, grabbed her bag, and stormed off.
With one hand on the door handle of the private room, she suddenly turned back, lightly asking: "Who’s the welcome party for today?"
Tang Ning looked at her in surprise, seemingly not expecting Li Mo to ask this, especially in a tone that suggested revenge. As she came to, she replied casually: "A friend Miss Li doesn’t know."
Li Mo didn’t even know why, but a cold smile flashed through her mind, recalling that girl who always lagged behind in their WhatsApp group named Zhui Guang.
She didn’t linger, pulled open the door, and stormed out like a whirlwind.
The room returned to silence.
Zhang Yang spoke up: "Alright, eat what you should, drink what you should, play what you should. Don’t let Miss Qiao come with friends later, and see you all like statues, as if something big happened."
Li Mo relied on the backing of the Bo family in Beijing and was indeed not low in status in the circle as Bo Zheng’s fiancée.
But it also depended on whom she was compared against!
She was compared to Miss Qiao.
Her family had the backing of the Ye family, and Master Wang doting on her, she herself wasn’t bad either. Master Nie, Qing University, Wen Family, Su family, Wei family... which one was inferior to the Bo family?
