Her first instinct was to repeat her words, but they would no longer sound as imposing as they originally had, and she would only lose face.
Li Ruo took a deep breath and asked, “What are you doing here,Yao Tang?”
The other girl tilted her head to the side. “What does it have to do with you?”
She made to walk around Li Ruoand her group, and finally go home.
She was just about to put her headphones back on when another voice came from behind her.
“Yao Tang.” Yang Nianwalked up to them with a smile, looking like he was in high spirits. “It pleases me to have you here.”
“That’s right, Sister,” Yao Ranpiped up in the next instant, appearing beside him. She forced a tight smile on her face.
“I’m sure everyone here is happy to see you. By the way, Sister, how did you know that Young Master Yangis holding a party here tonight?”
As for Yan Wei, she crossed her arms over her chest and shotYao Tanga mocking smile. She looked the latter up and down as if she was looking at a street rat. “So, you’re here, huh? Didn’t you say that you didn’t want to come? Why are you here all of a sudden?”
When Yao Ranheard this, her lips almost curled up into a sneer. She never thought thatYang Nianwould also inviteYao Tang.
But if Yan Weiwas right, thenYao Tanghad rejected him, so why was she here now?
‘She had already stolen Grandma’s love, now, she’s trying to snatch my fiancé away?’
Yao Ran had to lower her head to keep her emotions from showing.
Yao Tang turned around and saw some of her schoolmates loitering near the entrance of the villa she was just walking past.
They looked familiar, but she knew none of them.
If she had known that she would run into someone from school, she would have just climbed over the subdivision’s walls instead of taking the proper way out.
“I was just passing by,” she said casually to Yang Nian. “You guys can carry on.”
Yan Wei sneered at her in disdain. She didn’t believeYao Tangfor one second. “Oh? You were passing byYang Nian’s house, specifically? Do you even live around here?”
“Hey,” Yang Nianfrowned. “We’re all schoolmates here. There’s no need to be mean to each other.”
Yan Wei snorted and rolled her eyes, turning away fromYao Tang.
The humiliation she had endured was still fresh in her mind, and she knew that it would forever be engraved in her heart.
She would never forget what Yao Tanghad done to her!
Yao Ran mustered the energy to step toward Yao Tang. “Since you’re already here, why don’t you just join us, Sister? You should know everyone, anyway. It won’t be so bad. Yang Master Yang has invited you, too. It would be rude for you to leave now.”
A low murmur went around the onlooking teenagers.
“She rejected him to his face before, right? Yet she still appeared. What is she trying to do?”
“I know, right? Maybe she regretted her decision. She probably assumed that Young Master Yangwould coax her into coming, and was disappointed when he did nothing. She would be a fool to miss this party, that’s why she came over on her own.”
“Just look how arrogant she’s acting. No one else would have asked her to stay aside from Yao Ran.”
Yao Ran made to grabYao Tang’s arm then, but the latter took a step back and avoided her.
“Just say what you need to say. Don’t touch me. I have no interest in joining your party. You guys can enjoy it yourselves.”
Yao Ran fumed as she pulled back her hand.
First it was Yan Wei, and nowYao Tang. What was she, some filthy hobo, that they didn’t want her touching them at all?
Yang Nian drew closer toYao Tang, his eyes never leaving her face. “You should come with us, Student Yao. We’ve been crunching so hard at school lately. Let’s use this opportunity to relax a little.”
But Yao Tang’s expression remained cold. “I don’t need it.”
Li Ruo couldn’t help but butt in then. She stepped in front ofYao Tangand demanded, “Then what on earth did you come here for? This is an exclusive villa, and only rich people have access to this place. How did you even get in?”
Yao Tang glanced at her briefly. “Again, what does it have to do with you?”
