55: Chapter 55 Head-on Collision

Everyone present was stunned, then looked at Lin Xiao as if he were a madman.

What did he just say?

He wanted to ask the eldest Miss Song if she wanted to marry him?!

Had he taken the wrong medicine?!

With Song Rui right there, the bodyguards didn't dare speak up first; they just watched Lin Xiao silently, waiting to see how he would die today.

After a moment of stunned silence, Song Rui's expression turned extremely ugly. "Do you know what you are saying?!"

"I said, I am the young master of the Lin family, Lin Xiao. Even if I had to marry a pig, I would never marry you!"

Lin Xiao stared into Song Rui's eyes and said every word clearly.

Facing Lin Xiao's earnest expression, Song Rui felt a momentary panic in her heart.

But she quickly recovered, as if she had heard the funniest thing in the world, and mocked, "Did you all hear that? This rideshare driver actually claims to be the young master of the Lin family. What, did the Lin family change professions or go bankrupt?"

Lin Xiao realized that no one around him believed him, and finally understood that with just his word, he certainly couldn't explain it clearly.

He would have to wait for The Lin Couple and his eldest and second sisters to discover him.

Just as he was about to continue making his call, another voice came from behind him.

"Hey, hey, hey, it's been so long, why is your speech still so ugly, you ugly monster? What's wrong with being a rideshare driver? Earning money through one's own labor—did it offend you?!"

This voice was very clear.

And very familiar.

Lin Xiao turned his head to look and saw the girl from earlier walking out of the banquet hall.

Upon seeing him, the girl was also very surprised. "Why are you being blocked?"

Lin Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth and pointed at the security guard, saying, "He said I'm a rideshare driver."

"Huh?"

The girl was stunned, as if she hadn't reacted yet.

Lin Xiao explained helplessly, "He said I drive a BYD."

The girl looked at the green-plated Bentley not far away, glanced at the security guard in surprise, and pressed her lips tightly together.

It was clear she was holding back laughter.

In such an occasion, she couldn't laugh.

She tried desperately to hold it in and attempted to change the subject, "Anyway, I forgot to introduce myself earlier. I am Bai Yueling of the Bai Group."

The Bai Group?

Lin Xiao had some impression of this Bai family.

When Lin Yu was previously kicked out of the Lin family and was borrowing money everywhere, the first person to come and explain the situation to Lin Qingshan was the head of the Bai family.

It was said that the Bai family had always been upright and honest in their dealings.

The partnership between the Lin family and the Bai family was also the longest-standing.

But Lin Xiao never expected that the young lady who had casually driven her car into a ditch would actually be the young lady of the Bai family.

Moreover, this Miss Bai seemed to know the annoying woman in front of them.

Song Rui, watching from the side, couldn't help but mock, "I was wondering who it was. So it's you, this low-class woman. I think you two are quite a match. Since you like defending these lowly things so much, why don't you just marry him!"

"Oh my, what dirty thing is making noise in broad daylight?"

Bai Yueling fanned the air with disdain, as if she had smelled something foul.

Her gaze suddenly turned to Song Rui, feigning realization, "Ah, why is it you, you ugly thing? How unlucky, how unlucky!"

Song Rui had injured her face when she was young. Although she had spent a fortune on corrective surgery and constantly maintained it, faint scars were still visible whenever she wasn't wearing makeup.

The scar wasn't large to begin with, and after so many years, it didn't play a decisive role in her appearance.

However, the psychological shadow this injury caused her was indelible.

The friends around her never dared to mention it in front of her.

She hadn't expected Bai Yueling to dare to speak so recklessly in front of so many people!

"You, you..."

Song Rui was so angry she couldn't speak.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't get angry. You were already ugly, now you've become even more abstract."

Bai Yueling didn't hold back at all when it came to insulting people.

She also gave Song Rui absolutely no face.

Seeing that it was getting late, she couldn't be bothered to linger here, so she grabbed Lin Xiao's arm and walked toward the banquet hall.

Others might not know, but she wasn't stupid.

Not to mention that what Lin Xiao was driving was definitely not a rideshare car.

Although a green-plated Bentley was indeed a bit abstract, its price was not low.

How could someone who could afford such a luxury car be a pauper?

But Song Rui was clearly unwilling to let them go just like that and immediately ordered her bodyguards to block the two of them.

"Bai Yueling, since you've chosen to be with him, then there's no need to attend this banquet... Besides, the person meant to marry into the Lin family was me anyway. It's good for you to see reality sooner."

"Heh, you ugly monster, do you think everyone is like you, with their head full of thoughts about getting married? I never had any interest in that Lin family young master either. If my parents hadn't forced me to come, I wouldn't have cared at all!"

Bai Yueling chuckled and said dismissively.

"Is that so? Then why are you still lingering here? Why don't you get lost?"

Song Rui seemed not to believe Bai Yueling's words at all.

"Since I've already promised my parents, I must attend!"

Bai Yueling's expression became somewhat impatient, and her eyes gradually turned cold. "Song Rui, do you really dare to block me?!"

The Song family and the Bai family had always been at odds, and Song Rui and Bai Yueling had similarly disliked each other since childhood.

Because the two families were evenly matched in strength, the two of them had only ever quarreled when they met.

Song Rui was arrogant and domineering in front of others, but in front of Bai Yueling, she dared not truly clash head-on.

But now, with so many people watching, if she just stepped aside, she wouldn't be able to save face.

Just at this moment, the sound of high heels came from inside, followed immediately by a cold, firm voice.

"What is going on here? Who dares to cause trouble at our Lin family banquet?!"

Hearing this voice, both Song Rui and Bai Yueling's hearts skipped a beat.

Only Lin Xiao revealed a brilliant smile.

It was Lin Chuge who had arrived.
