Chapter 800: Chapter 798: Clearly Within Reach… Chapter 800: Chapter 798: Clearly Within Reach… …
A young man dressed in a crisply tailored black suit stood at the podium of the venue.
He first picked up a wine glass, gently tapped it, and a clear, pleasing “ding~” resonated, silencing the entire hall.
“Ladies and gentlen, thank you for taking ti out of your busy schedules to attend the Harvest Festival on Keling Town Star. I represent,” the young man stopped abruptly.
Not far away, a mature man with a commanding presence and a girl carrying a basket of red apples approached him.
“Please welco the Planet Master of Keling Town Star—Qin Mo, Mr. Qin,” the young man switched his tone and gestured towards the man with applause.
Imdiately, all the guests looked in the indicated direction and raised their hands to clap.
Sally also looked over. The face, long blurred in her mory, beca clear again, and mories surged… finally settling on this man who had beco more profound and restrained, overwhelming her with emotion.
After all, he was soone she had dared to love with her life; how could she simply erase him.
Qin Mo stood at the podium, looking at the guests below… his gaze sharp and sweeping, as if searching for soone.
But, no!
The distinctly vivid contours in her mory were not visible!
There were devices specifically recording the Harvest Festival nearby, docunting the entire process.
His eyes brightened, and he spoke into the microphone, “Thank you all for coming. I have an important announcent to make at this Harvest Festival, that the position of Planet Master of Keling Town Star will be handed over to my only daughter, Qin Caicai.”
Qin Caicai was stunned to hear this; she just stood frozen, “Dad!”
Qin Mo patted her shoulder, “From now on, this will be your responsibility.”
The young man who had been standing at the podium started clapping.
Sally watched the two unblinkingly, especially Xiao Shiliu, who was even more beautiful than in the pictures and taller, nearly six feet.
However, for this world, it did not seem out of place, rather middling and just right.
Qin Mo headed straight for the broadcasting equipnt.
Those two little mice ran very fast, but like geese that leave traces, the cara might capture their traces.
Qin Caicai knew what Qin Mo was doing and what he had just said… A glint of resentnt quickly flared in the depths of her eyes.
“Today we have a very special guest. That is my birth mother, Sally, who is also here!” She intently scanned the people below, her gaze sweeping over Sally.
The guests looked around, left and right, searching for this guest nad “Sally.”
Sally also looked around, with absolutely no intention of revealing herself.
Based on Xiao Qi’s reaction, it was clear she did not want to see herself; it was best she remained tactful.
For many years, when she had no ans, naturally, she couldn’t et her, which was understandable.
Later, even when she had the ans, she chose not to et her; it was best to leave each other undisturbed.
Seeing no abnormal reactions from anyone, Qin Caicai quietly frowned before continuing to mingle, “Perhaps mother is sowhat shy; I will introduce her later. First, let discuss this year’s harvest; like every year, we will donate it to those in need. For this, we from Keling Town Star have specially invited the Councilman’s daughter, our great philanthropist Lorinda Winstarz…”
Qin Mo finally spotted the pair of mice, one white and one silver-white, scuttling out of the venue towards the orchard.
aning, Sally was indeed among these guests.
But she had disguised herself!
So close yet so far—
“Sinrant, any guests left early today?” Qin Mo asked the steward in charge of this Harvest Festival, who was also the young man who had spoken earlier.
“The banquet has not yet started; no guests have left so far.”
“So, she is still here.”
…
Sally followed the crowd toward the direction of the banquet hall.
Avera introduced Sally to Lorinda.
Upon learning that Sally was the lady of Ray Zhe Woodsworth’s household, Lorinda was very enthusiastic and even took the initiative to add Sally’s contact information, saying she should co visit her at Heng Star in the future.
Sally politely reciprocated, treating the invitation as a joke.
Upon entering the banquet hall, she had to sign her na once again on the guest list.
Avera still signed for Sally—Mirute Yan, a combination of two surnas.
Qin Mo ticulously searched, for he was all too familiar with Sally’s handwriting.
Still no sign!
Qin Caicai knew what Qin Mo was looking for. “Dad, stop looking. Her child can transform; maybe she can too. Perhaps she ca without an invitation and left quietly.”
Qin Mo shook his head, “No, I feel like she’s still here.”
Sinrant hurried over, “Master of the house, young master, Mr. Woodsworth has arrived!”
Qin Caicai was startled, then quickly said to Qin Mo, “We can’t neglect him; even the Councilman holds him in high regard.”
“…I’ll go to welco him myself.” Qin Mo glanced at Qin Caicai and walked off with Sinrant.
Sally sat next to Avera, eating with a knife and fork.
The steak was very well made, and the roasted lamb was crispy and juicy—all cooked in Earth’s style… It was undeniably reminiscent of a hotown al.
Xiaoi said to Sally, “King has arrived.”
Sally paused, then after taking another big bite of roast at, she stood up and said to Avera and Lorinda, “I’m going to step out for a bit; you guys go ahead and eat.”
“Okay,” Avera replied.
“Do you need help?” asked Lorinda.
“No, no need.” Sally quickly waved her hands and walked off with her handbag.
Avera quietly asked Lorinda, “Why are you so polite to her?”
“Because I want to et Mr. Woodsworth through her,” Lorinda revealed, her stunningly beautiful face flushing with a girlish shyness.
Avera was directly srized.
…
After Sally entered the restroom, she imdiately had Xiaoi help her teleport away from the banquet hall, transforming into a little white mouse and headed towards the port where the spaceship was docked.
King was signing the guest list at the entrance of the banquet hall when he quickly spotted Sally’s pseudonym, Mirute Yan!
Narrowing his eyes slightly, he followed Qin Mo into the banquet hall.
Then, scanning the room, he did not see the pregnant woman.
Lorinda took a sip of red wine, about to continue probing Avera about Sally, when a commotion at the entrance caught her attention.
Looking up, her mind went blank, foolishly gazing at King.
Though Qin Mo also had a commanding presence, completely matching King beside him, everyone’s first glance still fell on the latter.
After exchanging pleasantries with a few acquaintances, King felt an especially intense gaze.
It was a girl with a flowery face and jade-like appearance, sowhat familiar, as if seen sowhere before.
With a smile and a nod, King followed Qin Mo toward the main table.
Qin Caicai also noticed Lorinda’s reaction and King’s nodding in return, her mind quickly working as she approached Lorinda, “Miss Winstar, might we step aside?”
“Of course,” Lorinda readily agreed.
Lorinda also approached the main table.
And was seated by Qin Caicai next to King.
