She’s spitting blood!

So in the end, she’s actually helped this scoundrel?

Su Wanwan also: “…”

Now she finally understood why Huo Jingshen chose that particular moment to flaunt their relationship!

He did that on purpose, didn’t he?

He’s nothing less than an old fox!

Old fox Huo Jingshen was holding her hand, giving it a little squeeze, “Go ahead, don’t be nervous.”

Su Wanwan wrinkled her little eyebrows, “I wasn’t nervous initially, now you’re making me nervous.”

Huo Jingshen couldn’t help but chuckle, “Weren’t you brave just a moment ago? Why the sudden change of heart?”

Su Wanwan: “…”

It wasn’t that she had a sudden change of heart, it was just that this occasion was really extraordinary, with several heads of families present. If she embarrassed herself, she wouldn’t mind, but it would be quite inappropriate if she embarrassed the Huo Family.

Moreover, she was in a heated argument just now, all fired up, so how could she bother about being nervous or not?

“Don’t be nervous, just keep smiling like you did that day at school during the performance.” After Huo Jingshen said this, Su Wanwan finally felt a bit more comforted.

Just as she was about to stand up…

“Wait a moment.”

Huo Jingshen stood up, raising his hands to fix her stray hair around her ears and temples.

His eyes were warm and gentle, his movements elegant and tender, his fingers brushing against her cheek and ear subtly…

Su Wanwan’s delicate lashes trembled slightly, she felt completely soft under his gaze.

The affectionate couple is showing off again! The elderly Mrs. Huo watched them with a gratified grin.

Huo Zhexi, however, was impatient, shouting, “Enough, enough, stop rubbing it in already, hurry up and get on stage!”

Show-off!

Go ahead and show off here for the next hundred years if you dare!

Huo Jingshen glanced at him coldly.

Huo Zhexi’s heart flinched, and he quickly lowered his head.

For crying out loud!

Can’t he even tell the truth?

Are they not done with their lovey-dovey act for the night?

“Alright, don’t be nervous, go ahead now.” Huo Jingshen gave her hand another little squeeze as if to boost her courage.

Su Wanwan nodded.

She adjusted the somewhat complicated and ornate hem of her lace dress, took a step, and then Huo Jingshen suddenly added, “Keep smiling.”

Keep smiling?

He shouldn’t have said that. The moment he did, Su Wanwan felt like all her smiles seemed a bit off.

Just as she was getting a bit flustered, Huo Jingshen walked over to her again.

The man raised his arms and placed them on her petite shoulders. His brows and eyes relaxed, he spoke gently and warmly, “Baby, you’re exceptionally beautiful tonight, the most beautiful.”

Under the luxurious crystal chandelier and the attentive gaze of everyone, the tall and handsome man slightly lowered his head, his handsome face sculpted to perfection, seemed to carry a hint of soft glow.

With a gentle breeze brushing his jade-like face, his eyes twinkling with a smile, he cheered for his beautiful little wife.

In that instant, Su Wanwan felt there was something almost sacred about the man in front of her. His words seemed to possess a mysterious power that completely sent her heart at ease.

**

Like this, Su Wanwan came onto the stage.

With a light smile on her lips, she elegantly lifted the hem of her dress. Her demeanor was dignified and graceful.

The elderly Mrs. Huo watched with satisfaction in her eyes.

This granddaughter-in-law of hers was very young and usually quite lively. She didn’t expect her to be calm and composed on such an important occasion, surrounded by the flamboyantly dressed daughters of many notable families. Su Wanwan was indeed a pleasant surprise.

As she reached the stage, Old Lady Ming took a pure gold crown from a waiter at the side. With a soft smile, she said, “Wanwan, congratulations on winning today’s ‘Charm Goddess’ award.”

Remembering Huo Jingshen’s words, Su Wanwan maintained a sweet smile on her face, “Thank you, Grandma Ming.”

“You’re welcome. Here, let me put it on for you.”

Su Wanwan slightly bent down, allowing the elder to place the delicate mini crown representing the “Charm Goddess” in her hair.

Her makeup and styling today leaned towards a European retro court style. Her hair was half-up and half-down in a dreamy princess hairstyle. Consequently, when the mini crown was placed in her hair, it looked exceedingly suitable, as though it were tailor-made for her.

After the crown was affixed, Su Wanwan stood up. Cheers and applause filled the venue for a moment, while the media reporters who were invited to the event clamored at the front of the stage with their cameras.

All that could be seen was her charming and vibrant eyes, exuding feminine allure.

The peach blossom adorning the corner of her eye enriched her every frown and smile, casting a radiant aura about her, like she was imbued with a touch of spirit. It was indeed a sight of myriad enchantments.

There were many below the stage inquiring about Su Wanwan’s background. Once they learned that she was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo Family, the applause immediately intensified.

Su Wanwan thought she could step off the stage at this point, but unexpectedly, the elderly Madam Ming picked up the microphone and said, “Wanwan is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo Family. She’s only twenty this year, but I didn’t expect this young lady to be both stunning and intelligent, with outstanding talent. You all saw her violin performance just now, which was remarkable. In addition to this, I’ve heard that she consistently ranks in the top three in her school grades, and is now interning at a television station. With such dedication and hard work, her future is boundless! Therefore, I, as the president of the Mingli Association, sincerely invite Mrs. Huo to join us. I wonder if Mrs. Huo is willing?”

Join the Mingli Association?

What does this mean?

Su Wanwan quickly looked towards Huo Jingshen below the stage.

Seeing him nod slightly, she immediately responded graciously with a smile, “Thank you, Granny Ming. I’m very willing to join the Mingli Association.”

Madam Ming smiled elegantly, “I should be the one thanking you. With the entry of Mrs. Huo, it seems like our Mingli Association will expand once again.”

The crowd could not help but cheer, except for…

Xing Siqing was sitting there with a twisted face.

Ming Hailan was also extremely irate.

It was already bad enough that she did not win the Charm Goddess title, and now Su Wanwan had even been invited to join the Mingli Association?

“Elder sister, didn’t we agree that I would win the Charm Goddess title this year? Why was it given to that Su Wanwan? And now she’s been invited to join the Mingli Association. I can’t accept this!”

“Enough.” Ming Haijuan was also feeling uncomfortable.

The charity foundation of the Ming Family, established by Madam Ming, was mainly for the wealthy and famous women of high society. Without a certain economic strength, social status, and even years of charitable contributions, it was impossible to join.

Moreover, to join, one needed to be recommended by a notable figure and pass through multiple scrutinizing rounds. If you performed carelessly after joining, you could be expelled.

In short, joining the prestigious Mingli Association, which was stringent and symbolized status and position, was not easy. As the eldest granddaughter of the Ming Family, she had been unable to join because she was busy studying abroad and had not gotten the time to participate in charity work.

However, Su Wanwan was able to join with just a mere sentence?

…

Bai Ruwei glanced at the stage and then at her phone.

The seat beside her had been empty for quite a while.

Huo Zhexi had been called away by Mingzhu for nearly 10 minutes now.

She didn’t know anyone around her.

Finally, she could not stand it and got up, “Excuse me, I am going to the restroom.”

Then, when Su Wanwan returned with the mini crown, she found that the round table, which was originally packed with people, was rather empty. Xing Siqing was not there, neither were Mingzhu and Huo Zhexi, and even Bai Ruwei was missing.

**

Bai Ruwei did not go to the restroom, but instead went to the bar area at the back.

After looking around, she could not see Huo Zhexi’s figure.

Standing there, she took out her phone to call him.

It was getting late, she wanted to go home, and she felt very uncomfortable being in this place which she didn’t fit into at all.

Just as she was making her call, someone suddenly bumped into her from behind.

The collision was so strong that her phone flew out of her hand and fell to the ground with a clattering sound.

She quickly bent down to pick up her phone, but her arm was grabbed by someone.

A somewhat sharp and delicate female voice rang out, “What are you doing? You bumped into me and didn’t even apologize? My clothes and shoes are dirty because of you, can you afford to compensate?”

“I’m sorry.” Bai Ruwei looked awkward, “I didn’t mean it, I was making a call here, you ran into me from behind.”

Ming Hailan’s face changed instantly, “I bumped into you? You’re just a waitress not doing your work but lurking around here, what on earth are you trying to do? You’re not trying to steal something, are you?”

Bai Ruwei’s face immediately flushed red, “I’m not a waitress here, and I didn’t steal anything.”

“You’re not a waitress?” Ming Hailan laughed arrogantly, “But aren’t you wearing a waitress’ outfit? Come over and clean my clothes and shoes for me! Make sure to clean them thoroughly!”

“Miss Ming, I’m really not a waitress here! You’ve got the wrong person.”

Ming Hailan looked at her impatiently, “Then who are you? How did you get in? Why don’t I recognize you?”

“I…I am Zhexi’s girlfriend?”
