Chapter 315 Lin Qingxue Saves the Day
Judging from Lin Qingxue's tone, it seemed that Niu Xingxing was still an important figure.
He Huihui was frightened.
“Niu Xingxing, I’ve been waiting for you at the door for ages, but I haven’t seen a single person. When did you run in?” Lin Qingxue asked, staring at Niu Xingxing.
"Sister Qingxue, we climbed over the wall to get in," Niu Qingqing whispered in her ear.
Lin Qingxue burst out laughing.
"Hmph, you were criticizing me last time, but aren't you just like me?" she teased Niu Xingxing.
However, she could understand.
Someone as low-key as Niu Xingxing must have seen the commotion at the entrance before deciding to climb over the wall.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Tell me, what's going on now?" Lin Qingxue looked at the people lying on the ground.
Her attitude surprised He Huihui's male companions.
"Could it be that the man surnamed Niu wasn't a waiter at the ball?" someone asked with a look of surprise.
"What waiter?" Lin Qingxue frowned slightly.
"Niu Xingxing is a waiter? How could that be? He's a distinguished guest of the Lin family!"
Lin Qingxue's words caused the expressions of the group to change drastically.
He Huihui was so surprised that her mouth dropped open, her face filled with disbelief.
"Niu Xingxing, is he a distinguished guest of the Lin family?" She stared at Niu Xingxing for a long time, her emotions churning.
That cowardly, sleazy loser...
The illegitimate son of the Niu family who was not well-liked...
How did he become a distinguished guest of the Lin family?
He Huihui was stunned and unable to react for a long time, completely bewildered by this astonishing change.
She snuck into this ball hoping to network with high society and elevate her social standing...
But Niu Xingxing, whom she had always looked down upon, had unexpectedly become an unapproachable VIP guest of the Lin family…
"What exactly happened?" Lin Qingxue asked again, her expression dark.
"If someone deliberately provokes our distinguished guest, our Lin family will never stand idly by!" she said emphatically.
He Huihui trembled upon hearing this.
She couldn't afford to offend the Lin family.
Neither could her male companions.
He Huihui's face turned pale and then red. After thinking it over, she made up her mind.
Since things have come to this, we can only try to put ourselves in a more advantageous position.
“Miss Lin, actually, the thing is like this…” she forced a smile and began to explain.
“I am Niu Xingxing’s classmate, and my name is He Huihui. I don’t know how Niu Xingxing became a distinguished guest of the Lin family, but when we were in school, his reputation was not very good.”
“Once, Niu Xingxing was caught peeping at us while we were changing clothes. He was going to be expelled from school, but if it weren’t for his sister protecting him, he wouldn’t have been able to graduate from high school.”
"I never expected to run into him here today. Niu Xingxing made inappropriate advances again. I fought back, but he slapped me hard. My friends tried to stand up for me, but he also injured them..."
"Even if they are distinguished guests of the Lin family, they can't be unreasonable, can they?"
After He Huihui finished speaking, she pretended to be wronged and pitiful, and started sobbing.
Her explanation naturally garnered sympathy from some people.
"You're talking nonsense!" Niu Qingqing retorted angrily, "You were the ones who followed us with ill intentions and insulted us!"
"Why would I, a woman, be insulted like this? But he hit me so hard, my face probably won't heal for a while..." He Huihui said pitifully.
"Hitting a woman, that's really low," someone whispered.
Lin Qingxue frowned, revealing her displeasure.
"You're saying Niu Xingxing had lewd intentions towards you?" She sized up He Huihui. "Are you very charming?"
He Huihui's expression froze.
"Naturally, she can't compare to the stunning beauty of Miss Lin, but she's still quite attractive to some people."
"Ridiculous!" Niu Qingqing shouted.
"Sister Qingxue is my third brother's girlfriend. Can you compare to her?"
"Whoosh..."
The guests were instantly in an uproar.
This is extremely exciting news.
Although there had been rumors before, they were limited to elite universities and some young people.
"Miss Lin, is she his girlfriend?" He Huihui's expression stiffened.
She was even more shocked than before.
The eldest daughter of the Lin family, the most beautiful woman in the West District, and the Lin family is a prominent family.
How could someone like that fall for Niu Xingxing?
"Miss Lin, is this true?" The young men from prominent families didn't want to believe it.
Lin Qingxue blushed slightly and nodded.
Some people cried out in despair, unable to accept it.
"I don't know what makes you so confident that you dare to say Niu Xingxing wants to take liberties with you..." Lin Qingxue stared at He Huihui, who dared not look directly at her.
She is incomparable to Lin Qingxue!
"Niu Xingxing, do you think she's good enough for you?" Lin Qingxue asked Xiao Chen.
"A vulgar woman, inexplicably confident," Xiao Chen said calmly.
He Huihui's face turned extremely pale.
I have never been so humiliated!
And at such an important occasion as the Lin family ball...
She became a clown, a clown who brought it all on herself!
“Miss, do you still insist that Niu Xingxing tried to take liberties with you?” Lin Qingxue continued to apply pressure.
"If you insist, I can have someone retrieve the high-definition surveillance footage, and the truth will surely come out."
He Huihui fell silent, unable to speak.
"Miss He, you look very unfamiliar. I don't think I invited you, did I?"
He Huihui looked nervous, and cold sweat poured down her face.
"I...I came in with a friend..." she stammered.
"Which friend is it? Could you call him out so I can see him?" Her words were calm, yet filled with pressure.
He Huihui became even more nervous and secretly glanced at her male companions.
However, those people all buried their heads in the ground, as if they didn't recognize her.
Her expression grew increasingly grim; she hadn't expected these people to be so pragmatic.
"No matter who brought you in, you are not welcome at my ball, Miss He. Would you like me to personally escort you out?"
"No...no need..." He Huihui said, her head down.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she felt immense pressure and humiliation.
"I'm sorry..." He Huihui almost cried again, but this time she really wanted to cry.
She moved her legs with difficulty and slowly walked outside.
"Miss Lin, I heard that your boyfriend is just an illegitimate son of a third-rate family, and has a terrible reputation at Elite University..." a voice suddenly shouted.
He Huihui stopped in her tracks.
It turned out that a young master from a prominent family who admired Lin Qingxue couldn't help but speak out out of jealousy and anger.
Everyone looked over.
“I really can’t understand how someone of Miss Lin’s status and background could fall for someone like that…” the young master from the aristocratic family continued.
"However, the elders of the Lin family are not short-sighted; they probably won't agree to this easily."
"I saw with my own eyes that the illegitimate son of the Niu family did not enter through the main gate, but sneaked in from the corner of the wall, presumably by climbing over the wall..."
"Miss Lin, what would be their reaction if the elders of the Lin family found out?"
The young master's question caused Lin Qingxue's face to darken.
Many people wore amused expressions.
Perhaps, something interesting will happen soon.
"I'm sorry, I've already sent someone to inform the elders of the Lin family..." the young master said with a smug look on his face.
He may not get it, but he will never let the one who gets it have an easy time.
"So, he was a kept man..." He Huihui felt much better after hearing this.
"I knew it! This loser is nothing special. Miss Lin must be blind to have fallen for him..."
He Huihui decided not to leave; she wanted to see how things would develop.
Why not watch a farce?
"Hey Niu, do you think you can handle the pressure from the elders in the Lin family?" the young master asked Niu Xingxing loudly, his tone full of sarcasm.
"A toad trying to eat swan meat isn't going to be that easy!"
Niu Xingxing did not answer, his expression remained calm.
"You'll soon find out how powerful you are!" the young masters sneered.
For aristocratic families, matching social status and social standing is of utmost importance.
"Dong dong dong..."
A series of hurried footsteps sounded as a group of Lin family members quickly entered the ballroom.
"Judging from their impatient looks, they're clearly furious and want to teach this toad-to-swan-meat-eating-a-frog-a-frog-a-swan-meat-a-frog ...
"Here it comes, here it comes..." He Huihui couldn't help but smile, full of anticipation.
The Lin family members began searching everywhere as soon as they entered.
Seeing Niu Xingxing, they were relieved and rushed over.
"Master Niu, why didn't you say anything before sneaking in?"
"You've really kept us waiting..."
"Gah!"
Everyone at the ball was stunned...
