Jiang Chenghuan had been held up, so the hotel manager in charge of the
banquet greeted the two of them instead. It seed that Jiang Chenghuan had
given him specific instructions beforehand. Even though they were just
interning as waitresses, the manager’s attitude was respectful.
They changed into the waitress uniforms, then she and Zhao Yumo each tooka
mask of a different color and followed the manager to the venue of the party.
Everything was all set up, and guests were arriving one after another. Jiang
Chenghuan had now also arrived early to entertain the guests, insteadof
coming in late like so cocky hosts. He clearly cared a lot about this cousin of
his.
Yun Xi swept her eyes across the scene. There was quite a crowd, mostof
whom she had seen at previous banquets. They were all people from the sa
circle.
What she did not expect to see was Liang Xinyi showing up with Han
Zhongteng&
During this period of ti when Han Wanling was in jail, Liang Xinyi had
beco Han Hongbin’s eyes and kept herself close to Han Zhongteng. She had
completely humiliated herself at the wedding banquet, yet now she had Han
Zhongteng wrapped around her little finger. Looks like Liang Xinyi did not
waste much ti at all.
But thinking about it, if she had not tried her best to stay by Han Zhongteng’s
side, then she would have been deed useless by Han Hongbin.
Although it was a masquerade ball, so of the guests wore only a half mask
on their faces, so they could still tell who they were speaking to.
This was unlike the waiters, who only showed their lips and chin after putting
on their masks. Apart from distinguishing each other by color, they could
hardly recognize who was behind the masks at all.
Before the party had officially begun, almost all of the guests had arrived. Even
Yan Jiaren, who was the host of the ball, had arrived. The scene in the majestic
ballroom gradually quietened, and everyone turned to look at the black
silhouette at the top of the stairs.
Amid the crowd, Yun Xi raised her eyes to lookat Yan Jiaren, who was now
descending the stairs, dressed in a black vintage V-neck tulle dress that
touched the ground. Her figure was slender and tall, and she had classically
glamorous makeup on her face.
A small hairpin attached to a see-through veil mask with tiny shards of black
diamonds was pinned to the top of her head. The clever design allowed
everyone to see her appearance clearly without straying from the the of
today’s masquerade party.
Her red lips were slighthly arched. Although the expression in her eyes was
distant and cold, the smile on her face was enough to srize the many
n present.
When she saw her for the first ti, Yun Xi knew that she was not a simple
woman at all. She had the aura of a strong and powerful woman and her
movents were so refined, she must have gone through rigorous training to
beco the elegant and poised celebrity she was. Maybe it was because of the
way she had been brought up. Yun Xi could see that despite the many wealthy
and eligible bachelors among the crowd, none of them could catch her eye
The arrogance she exuded gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Wasn’t
this the sa aura as that domineering tyrant, Mu Feichi?
The only difference between them was that Yan Jiaren seed a little
pretentiously cocky, unlike Mu Feichi’s innate sense of nonchalance that ca
naturally.
Thank you to everyone for taking the ti out of your busy schedules to
attend my party. I am Yan Jiaren. Today’s party is to celebrate my retum back
to my holand and also the opening of my store. I will be spending a lot of
ti in the country from now on, so please take care of and thank you!”
Such a perfectly concise introduction, so neat and unambiguous, while the
power she exuded caused many n to stare with their mouths wide open.
Yun Xi knew at a glance that the look in her eyes was that of an excited hunter
stalking her prey.
A weak woman could make a man feel compassion, buta strong woman could
easily arouse a man’s desire to conquer. This was the difference between the
two.
The party quickly resud. Yun Xi walked between the guests with a wine tray
in her hand. Liang Xiuqin and Yun Ziling stood in the crowd, desperately trying
to identify who was Jiang Chenghuan’s aunt and which was the wealthy prince
charming Liang Xiuqin wanted as her son-in-law..
