Chapter 4

  "Oh, my god, someone really took a taxi to congratulate Mr. Lance Pei!"   "The taxi was so dirty. She won't spread any germs here, right?"   "Pei family's daughter took a taxi to congratulate her father. I can't believe it. This must be the hottest news this year!"   "You see that shabby clothes she's wearing? The Pei family is really pitiful!"   The ridicule from all around kept coming into her ears, and Selena knew that she had really become a joke in everyone's eyes today.   The pity some people sighed in their mouths was actually more graceful than the comments other people spewed.   Selena didn't follow the people's comments to see who was talking behind her, and she didn't say anything again.   No one cared to think how uncomfortable it was for her to hear their mean and thoughtless remarks. These seemingly plain words always had an invisible lethal weight to them. She had been practicing herself for more than ten years, from being oversensitive to her current indifference.   But now, she found out that it was still not enough.   Selena, your endurance is not enough after all, she told herself as she clenched her fists.   Perhaps it was her physical condition that affected her endurance today. She used to endure all verbal abuse before.   But today, she still took to heart what other people said and they couldn't see how hard it was for her to repress the grievances that were surging up in her heart.   After finally getting through her sniffles, Selena raised her head and gave her cousin a glare before turning around to leave.   Jasmine suddenly felt embarrassed when everyone began to talk quietly. She wasn't expecting to find that Selena's troubles would also affect her in such a way that would also embarrass her.   At this time, when Selena glared at her and turned around to leave, she came back to her senses and realized that there was no need for her to stay where she was and started to leave.   As she was overtaking her, she stepped forward and bumped into Selena, and said, "It's all your fault!"   Jasmine didn't pay much thought to her rough actions. She didn't think that Selena would lose her balance and fall straight forward.   She saw that Selena was about to touch the ground with her face and was stunned by this accident. When has Selena become so feeble?   Selena also didn't expect that her cousin would hit her in front of a crowd and fall straight to the ground.   Just as she closed her eyes and waited for the impact and pain to come, she suddenly fell into a warm embrace.   "Ms. Pei, are you okay?" the voice of the person who rescued her was gentle, and the look of concern in his eyes made Selena feel warm.   Only then did Selena discover that she was being held by the man in an ambiguous posture. She blushed and hurriedly regained her body from his embrace. Tidying up her clothes, she said, "I'm fine, thank you!"   The people on the side were also taken aback by the events that unraveled right before their eyes and only recovered after Selena was helped up.   Jasmine's face was complicated. When she saw that the man who saved Selena was not someone else but Yael Zhou, her cousin and future heir of the Zhou family, her chest suddenly burned with jealousy.   Who said that Selena was jinxed? In her opinion, Selena was very lucky. Selena's elder brother died a few years earlier, and her sister, Sandra, who had no relations with the Pei family by blood, was adapted into the Pei family.   Originally, the Pei family valued Sandra very much, but Sandra couldn't bear it anymore and committed suicide.   That's why arrangement of marrying Eugene suddenly fell on Selena.   Moreover, Selena has now become the sole heir to the Pei family's righteous reputation.   Wasn't all of this surprisingly good?   "Yael!" Jasmine, who saw that it was Yael who had helped Selena, was now even more jealous of her.
