Chapter 573: Apocalypse True Daughter Cannon Fodder (44)

Those attending the gathering at the Kyoto Base were young members of the upper echelons of society; many were acquainted with Long Feifei.

But Luo Ning was still rather unfamiliar to them.

Someone asked which family’s young lady she was.

Jia Baofeng, who did not like Luo Ning, told these young ladies that Luo Ning was a commoner from S City, formerly regarded as a young lady, but she had broken off relations with her family.

She did not mention that it was Luo Ning who had actively severed ties with the Luo Family. Her words carried a hint of disdain, implying that it was Luo Ning’s unpopularity and poor relations with her family that led to being ostracized.

It was only because she was on good terms with Long Feifei that she was brought along to the gathering today.

Hearing this, the crowd looked at Luo Ning with scorn and contempt.

If even her own family could not tolerate her, her character must not be very good.

Several spoiled young men became interested.

Since Luo Ning was beautiful yet lacked a significant background, they planned to take advantage of her for their amusement.

Consequently, holding their drinks, they approached her with frivolous words, expressing a desire to get to know her.

Luo Ning naturally didn’t bother responding and just gave them a cold shoulder.

As Long Feifei was present, these men neither insisted nor acted inappropriately, but they were clearly displeased.

After leaving, they spread the words of Jia Baofeng.

Some time later, Long Feifei was called away by a friend, and Luo Ning did not follow; she sat down in a corner alone.

As she sat, she saw Luo Baomiao, arm in arm with Third Luo, entering.

Upon entering, she immediately noticed Eldest Luo and Second Luo, clearly either invited by the Jia Family or having obtained invites by themselves.

Jia Baofeng was reluctant to bring Luo Baomiao but was persuaded by Third Luo to do so.

Seeing this, Eldest Luo and Second Luo frowned slightly; their younger brother’s behavior was increasingly inappropriate, but it was also not something to discuss openly.

Jia Baofeng’s expression darkened, and she promptly pulled Luo Baomiao aside to a secluded corner.

"How did you come here?"

With a helpless expression, Luo Baomiao replied, "Third Brother asked me to accompany him."

Jia Baofeng furrowed her brow. "How did he get an invitation?"

She had procured her own invitation.

Eldest Luo had secured an invitation and had brought only Second Luo and her eldest brother.

Luo Baomiao, altering her previously submissive demeanor with Jia Baofeng, spoke with a hint of arrogance: "Third Brother has awakened another superpower element and joined the strongest force in the base, the First Superpower Alliance, thus he obtained an invitation."

In the apocalypse, strength was an overriding standard.

Dual-element superpower users were rare; whenever one appeared, they were quickly recruited and intensively nurtured by major forces.

A powerful dual-element superpower user was a guest of honor everywhere.

Therefore, with Third Luo suddenly awakening a second superpower element and already being strong, he had quickly secured a firm footing in the base.

Luo Baomiao, of course, would not let go of this opportunity.

Jia Baofeng’s expression shifted, then she forced a smile, "Third cousin is truly impressive."

She warmed up significantly toward Luo Baomiao, "I originally wanted to bring you, but Long Feifei objected, and I dare not provoke her."

"Now that Third Brother has brought you, it is even better."

The Jia Family was no longer influential, but having a dual-element superpower user could make a significant difference.

Furthermore, Third Luo had joined the First Alliance, a force eagerly sought after by the upper echelons of the base.

Though her heart scorned Luo Baomiao’s behavior of seducing Third Luo, Jia Baofeng hid her disdain when there were benefits involved.

Luo Baomiao knew it would end up this way, and she took a glass of wine from the waiter’s hand and swirled it around.

"Having Third Luo bring me here is naturally better."

She added, meaningfully, "It’s just that Luo Ning went too far. If it weren’t for her, my reputation wouldn’t have been tarnished, nor would the Jia Family have been implicated."

Jia Baofeng was a clever woman and immediately understood what she meant.

She chuckled, "Indeed, Luo Ning really thinks too highly of herself."

"I’ll go over and have a chat with her," she knew Luo Baomiao wanted to use her to deal with Luo Ning, but she didn’t mind.

Luo Baomiao laughed out loud, "Cousin, you should indeed have a good chat with Luo Ning, otherwise it won’t just be the Luo Family losing face, but the Jia Family too."

Jia Baofeng nodded, held her glass of wine, and in her high heels called a few friends to join her as they approached Luo Ning.

This time, Luo Baomiao did not follow; she had already experienced Luo Ning’s venomous tongue.

She was afraid that in front of so many people, Luo Ning would dig up her past again.

However, she sat down not far away and kept an eye on the situation there.

Jia Baofeng and the others went over, looking down on Luo Ning with their heads held high.

Jia Baofeng, with a sense of superiority, said to Luo Ning, "This isn’t a place for a commoner like you."

Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, "Is this banquet yours?"

Jia Baofeng scoffed, "The banquet isn’t mine, but if I were you, I’d leave quickly to avoid making a fool of myself later."

"You think just by sticking close to Long Feifei, you can go from being a sparrow to a phoenix?"

Luo Ning softly laughed, "I don’t know if I’ll make a fool of myself or not."

"But it’s you who can’t even soar to the tree tops, let alone transform into a phoenix, not even comparing to a sparrow," she sized up Jia Baofeng and curled her lips.

Jia Baofeng didn’t expect Luo Ning would dare to mock her, "You!"

She glared at Luo Ning, "Watch your status, don’t think just because you’re slightly attractive you can come here and seduce men; these men are not for you to think about."

Luo Ning sneered, "So you’re really thinking about the men here?"

After sizing up Jia Baofeng again, she clicked her tongue, "Sadly, with your looks, even if you long to seduce someone, no one would want you."

"So you might as well go home, wash up, and go to bed."

She always had the principle of not provoking others unless provoked, but if someone came looking to be insulted, she only obliged.

"You!" Jia Baofeng’s face turned livid with rage, "What do you think you are to talk to me this way?"

Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, "You indeed are something, something that can’t make it to the stage."

"You!" Jia Baofeng choked, she didn’t expect this unimpressive cousin of hers to have such a venomous tongue, "Today I must teach you a lesson."

Luo Ning smiled playfully, "I’m really curious to see what you can do to teach me a lesson."

Jia Baofeng grabbed a waiter and asked him to call the manager over.

Her friends followed suit, mocking Luo Ning.

The undertone was that Luo Ning deliberately sneaked in, trying to transform from a sparrow to a phoenix and seduce wealthy young men, being completely shameless.

Luo Ning looked at those speaking and made a mental note of them.

Soon, the manager came over.

Jia Baofeng pointed at Luo Ning and told him, "This person sneaked in, please have her removed."

"Not just anyone should think of sneaking into such high-class gatherings; if trouble arises later, she won’t be able to handle it."

Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, "Who said I sneaked in?"

Jia Baofeng snorted haughtily, "You don’t have an invitation, if you didn’t sneak in, then how did you get in?"

Currently, Long Feifei wasn’t in the banquet hall, so she wanted to take this opportunity to disgrace Luo Ning and have her thrown out.
