Triple Denial

A crisp sound echoed in the corridor as the maid covered her face and leaned against the wall, staring blankly at An Siyao.

"Remember your identity." Xia Yu brushed the spot where the maid had touched and strode forward.

Crossing the corridor and arriving at the banquet hall, he immediately noticed An Siyao's stepmother.

She was a woman only a few years older than An Siyao, with a face that was popular online and a body that attracted attention.

Her name was Luo Yali, originally the secretary of An Tianfeng.

Beside Luo Yali, there was a little boy about ten years old.

That was An Tianfeng's son.

Holding a gift box, Xia Yu walked towards Luo Yali.

Beside Luo Yali, a group of noble ladies surrounded her. They saw An Siyao from a distance and whispered to each other before she arrived.

"Is that the daughter of the ex-wife?"

"Not favored by Mr. An, she'll probably just marry someone casually in the future."

"Is she wearing something similar to Mrs. An's?" Finally, someone noticed the point.

"However, Mrs. An still has a better temperament."

"How could a young girl learn such a mature flavor?"

Luo Yali smiled as she listened to the compliments from the people around her, but as Xia Yu got closer, her joy slowly disappeared.

The noble ladies around her also stopped praising her.

They could see An Siyao clearly.

The girl was wearing a simple white evening gown, her steps steady, her face expressionless, and her eyes sharp.

Looking at An Siyao, they felt as if they had seen a fierce tiger; they had only experienced this feeling around their own authoritative husbands.

This was the effect of intimidation.

As the girl approached, everyone saw her jade-like cheeks and stunning figure wrapped in the evening gown.

Although the noble ladies were good at flattery, they also had their own pride. If there was no significant difference between An Siyao and Luo Yali, or if the difference was not very obvious, they could still deceive themselves a little. But the dazzling An Siyao and the ordinary beauty of Luo Yali had too much of a gap.

The glances of the surrounding men also reflected this point.

As they passed by, Xia Yu turned his head and glanced at them, and the group of people avoided eye contact altogether.

"Happy birthday." Xia Yu handed the gift box to Luo Yali.

"Ah, thank you." Luo Yali took the gift box with a slight panic, making her seem even more unusual.

Before she could say anything else, Xia Yu left the place and headed to the table with refreshments.

After a while, the noble ladies came back to their senses.

"Mrs. An, your daughter has quite a temperament!" A noble lady exclaimed.

"Well, she's just a little ignorant." Luo Yali forced a smile.

"After all, she's just a daughter, and you've given birth to a son for Mr. An." The noble ladies gathered around Luo Yali's son again.

Unlike them, Luo Yali had concerns.

At the beginning, when she had just become An Tianfeng's wife, she had spent some time pleasing An Siyao. After giving birth to her son, she gradually became more unkind to her. So she had a good understanding of An Siyao.

If she didn't know that An Siyao had no twin sister, she wouldn't have believed that the girl just now was An Siyao!

That girl had always been weak and submissive, where would she have such a strong demeanor? She even wore a dress that was similar to her own style. Didn't the maid stop her?

And after delivering the gift, she should have stayed in place for me to say a few words!

She didn't even call her mother!

In Rowena's heart, there was some uneasiness. She looked at An Siyao again and saw that An Siyao was chatting and laughing with Jiao Heyu and the others.

Originally just a little uneasy, Rowena became panicked. Since when did An Siyao have such a good relationship with Jiao Heyu and the others? What did she want to do?

Had she been hiding her clumsiness before? Was it all just to get close to Jiao Heyu and the rest innocently, and take control of the younger generation of the An Group?

Now, had she prepared everything and was ready to start the battle head-on?

The daughters of high society have deep and terrifying schemes indeed!

Born into a poor family, Rowena fell into a huge conspiracy.

Xia Yu didn't know what kind of panic he had brought to Rowena, as he ate snacks and chatted with Jiao Heyu and the others.

The taste of the snacks was light and slightly sweet. At first, Xia Yu found it a bit difficult to get used to, but after eating a couple, he was attracted to their deliciousness.

"This one isn't bad either." Shen Xiaowen stuffed a cake into Xia Yu's mouth.

"What's the point of always eating snacks?" Jiao Heyu picked up a plate of ham and handed it to Xia Yu.

The other three also handed over food one after another.

Their behavior surprised the guests around them.

They too fell into the same thought process as Rowena.

The child Rowena had given birth to was An Tianfeng's son, so by convention, it should be the son who inherits. But An's daughter had a close relationship with the other major shareholders' children, and she was born to An's legal wife. Who would be the next heir of the An family?

However, this question only flashed through their minds for a moment, as An Tianfeng was still in his middle age and there was still a long way to go before retirement.

With the idea of being prepared for a rainy day, some people began to let their children join An Siyao's circle, which made Rowena, who was observing from a distance, even more panicked.

As for Xia Yu, he only felt the noise.

With so many people crowded around, he could no longer enjoy his food properly.

Fortunately, those guys knew their limits and didn't get too tangled up.

Without waiting for the party to end, Xia Yu left the banquet hall after tasting all the food.

Eight hours passed, and he returned to his own body.

Now it was one in the morning, and he had gone over at five in the afternoon.

Stretching lazily, Xia Yu sat up and checked his various stats.

First were the skills.

[Music lv3, Agility lv2, Night Vision lv1, Programming lv1, Intimidation lv1, Painting lv1, Video Games lv1, Agility Boost lv1]

Then the game points.

[4220]

"???"

Each time he came back from the game, there would be a line of small print reminding Xia Yu how many game points he had gained, but Xia Yu hadn't looked closely and never realized there were so many saved up.

A couple of days ago, he had only had about 380. With one point per minute and the two days of gaming, it should be 1340. So how did it double?

Was it because he went through a deregulation event and the party event in these two days?

As long as you experience events, you can get more game points?

So after experiencing Xu Youxiang's death event, why didn't the points increase at all?

If it's not experiencing events, then what is the reason?

Insufficient information, unable to make inferences.

He temporarily put aside the matter.

Today is already Friday, and he promised his mother to go over in the evening, so today's game opportunity needs to be used earlier.

Coincidentally, An Siyao is flying back to Yao Guang City this afternoon, so he can go and eat some caviar again.
