Chapter 437 The Beginning Of The Award Ceremony

They were almost finished with their preparations for the ceremony. All the invited guests had taken their seats, and Liu Yi sat in her seat while looking at the vast stage. She couldn’t help but feel excited as her heart raced.

Several well-dressed women sat beside her, and Liu Yi seemed out of place.

Coincidentally, the few rude, wealthy ladies were sitting four rows behind Liu Yi.

At that moment, one of the ladies stared at Liu Yi’s back and gritted her teeth in anger.

“What right does this woman have to sit in front of us? What a joke; what qualifications does she have?”

She said it with dissatisfaction.

“Mrs. Liu, don’t be angry with a thief. After the ceremony, it’ll be easy for us to take care of her.”

Hearing this, the lady’s anger finally subsided.

“Alright, I can’t believe this happened. Ridiculous!”

She was so angry that she gnawed on her teeth and wanted nothing more than to fight with Liu Yi.

Jealousy was the reason she despised Liu Yi so much.

They were both in their thirties, but she had already deformed her figure, and her face was swollen from overeating.

As for Liu Yi, although she had some wrinkles at the corner of her eyes, her facial features and body shape were perfect. Many young and handsome guys would fall in love with her at first sight!

This made her angry, and her jealousy exploded with anger!

The other ladies sitting next to Liu Yi also felt uncomfortable. Even though they were all dressed luxuriously, they were defeated by Liu Yi in her plain clothes.

In the audience, Yun Zirou and the others also took their seats.

However, Yun Zirou separated from Wang Meng and went to Yun Xinhai’s side.

“Zirou, you’re finally here. How’s school been?”

Yun Zirou tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, “Not bad. I’m a manager in the club that Lu Yu founded.”

“That’s nice to hear. When the bodyguard who escorted you to school went back, he reported to me that you met a boy on the road. I was worried that you would have run away with him or something.”

“It seems I was overthinking it, and you’re lucky to have met such a powerful individual.”

Yun Zirou smiled helplessly. “When I first met him, who knew this day would come?”

“By the way, Zirou, just tell me the truth. Is it possible for you to have a relationship with him?” Yun Xinhai suddenly became serious.

If Yun Zirou really had the chance, the entire Yun family would be honored by Lu Yu’s presence!

Yun Zirou pursed her lips and thought for a moment before shaking her head. “I’m not sure. He’s devoted to his cultivation and only sees me as a friend.”

Yun Xinhai sighed. “Sigh, if you have a chance in the future, you must seize it. The fate of the entire Yun family may be in your hands.”

Yun Zirou nodded helplessly.

At that moment, the few big shots making snide remarks at him last night saw Yun Xinhai and laughed at him again.

“Isn’t this the eldest daughter of the Yun family? Didn’t you say your daughter is a friend of Lu Yu? Why is she sitting here?”

“Are you planning on relying on Lu Yu to climb up the social ranks? Your Yun family will always be a second-rate family. Don’t even think about being compared to us!”

“Don’t even think about coming over to Ixdale. It’s absolutely impossible!”

“It’s not that easy to be a first-rate family!”

The few business moguls mocked Yun Xinhai, as they were all from Ixdale’s business circle and were repulsed by outsiders. They would usually join forces to suppress any outsiders trying to come in.

At that moment, Yun Xinhai’s forehead had already started to sweat.

He knew he couldn’t argue with these bigwigs. Once he did, the Yun family would declare bankruptcy the next day!

However, Yun Zirou suddenly stood up and shouted at them, “All of you, shut up! Whether I am friends with Lu Yu or not has nothing to do with you!”

She shouted angrily, and the crowd fell silent. Everyone turned to look at Yun Zirou.

Yun Xinhai’s eyes widened to their maximum. He never dreamed Yun Zirou would actually go against these people and be this reckless!

In the past, Yun Zirou would have endured it with her father. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t be able to live her life.

But thanks to Lu Yu and the establishment of the Featherwing Club, she learned how to fight against these bullies bravely. Whether it was a club in the lower house or a company in the business world, they were all the same in essence!

Seeing Yun Zirou’s anger, the big shots couldn’t help but clap their hands.

“Good job. The Yun family has raised a dumbass.”

“It’s time to change the person in charge in Cloud City.”

“What a bold, reckless kid…”

Yun Xinhai quickly pulled Yun Zirou back and forced her to sit down.

“What are you doing? There’s no need to anger them.”

“Why are you afraid of them? The more you’re afraid of them, the more they’ll bully you!”

Yun Zirou said so in an imposing manner.

Yun Xinhai looked at her and couldn’t help but sigh. “You’ve changed a lot…”

Suddenly, the entire place stopped quarreling and instantly became quiet.

At the center of the stage, Jiang Lengyue’s figure appeared.

Everyone sat upright and still immediately and kept quiet.

Although Jiang Lengyue looked like a little girl, her powerful aura made no one dare look her in the eye.

“Keep quiet. We’re going to start the award ceremony now!”

After she finished speaking, a stone pillar rose in front of her. On top of the stone pillar was a golden box carved with exquisite patterns.

“Next, let’s welcome our hero!”

After that, the formation glowed with a bright light behind Jiang Lengyue as a figure walked out.

Lu Yu walked out and was still dressed in casual clothes. Jiang Lengyue saw this but didn’t say anything.

No one could point fingers at the hero of the upper house, not even her.

Lu Yu quickly walked over to the stone pillar.

In the audience, the crowd started murmuring softly. It was the first time most of them had seen Lu Yu with their own eyes, so they couldn’t help but talk about him.

“Is this the hero who saved the upper house? I didn’t expect him to be this handsome.”

“He looks so young. His talent is really terrifying.”

“How did he do it? It’s really puzzling.”

“This person will definitely be someone special in the future. I must find a way to be on his good side…”

Lu Yu came to the front of the stage. According to the procedure, he had to say a few words before taking the medal.

Lu Yu looked at the crowd. When his eyes fell on Liu Yi, he couldn’t help but smile gently.

When Liu Yi saw Lu Yu, she also smiled excitedly.

“Welcome, everyone, to my award ceremony. The upper house’s disaster killed many people and destroyed many beautiful buildings.”

“Many of them are your children. We should spend a minute to mourn for those who have died in this terrible disaster.”
