Auspicious Day.
Yuan Yung never thought she’d see Huo Junting again at his engagent party with Yuan Yuqi—
He was dressed in a tailored tailcoat, looking as radiant as warm jade, his smile bright as the moon, holding his young fiancée’s hand, engaging in charming conversation with the guests, utterly satisfied.
Yuan Yung was sowhat captivated; wasn’t this precisely what she wanted?
As long as he lived happily and smiled blissfully, who stood beside him didn’t seem to matter as much.
Selfishly, she wished that her "big brother" had long vanished into the river of ti, so that he belonged only to her, only to Xiaopang.
With many guests around, she as the family mber was just a simple accompanint. After admiring the loving couple for a while, Yuan Yung went to the buffet area, picked up a plate and utensils, and began to slowly choose—
True to being the engagent party of the Huo Family’s head, they had managed to invite the renowned culinary god, Mr. Zhou, as the chef.
For the sake of this na alone, she planned to indulge, not missing out on such a good opportunity.
However, a sudden lack of appetite struck her, only ending up choosing a dessert, a cream pudding...
Yuan Yung didn’t want to draw any attention, secretly slipping into a corner, turning away from the crowd to enjoy the food...
"Sis—"
Suddenly, a sweet, clear voice ca from behind.
Yuan Yung almost choked in surprise, coughing as she turned to see Yuan Yuqi in her splendid gown standing there. "Wha-what’s the matter?"
"You almost made choke by speaking so suddenly!"
Instantly, the smile on Yuan Yuqi’s face faded, "Sis, there’s sothing I need your help with, could you?"
Yuan Yung instinctively felt it wasn’t anything good, frowning, "Go on, whether I help or not depends on what you need."
Yuan Yuqi glanced around discreetly, then pulled Yuan Yung outside, heading to the backyard...
At that mont, the moon was bright and stars sparse, a gentle breeze blowing.
Even with her warmth-holding bulk, Yuan Yung still felt a bit cold, starting to shiver, "Quickly, it’s freezing out here."
"Sis." Yuan Yuqi seed hesitant to speak.
"If you don’t say anything, I’m going back inside." Yuan Yung didn’t want to freeze to an ice sculpture outside.
Yuan Yuqi imdiately reached out to stop her, "Sis, wait, take a look at this first!"
"What is it?" Yuan Yung took her phone.
Upon seeing, it was a ssage: [Yuan Yuqi, if you dare get engaged, I’ll cause a scene. Let’s see what happens!]
"What the heck?" Yuan Yung glanced at the sender, a series of phone numbers. "Who is this?"
"..."
Yuan Yuqi was nearly brought to tears, "He, he was my ex-boyfriend, he often lost his temper with during our relationship, and I couldn’t take it any longer, so I broke up with him. I don’t know how he found out about my engagent, and then I received this text this morning..."
"Has he co?" Yuan Yung asked again.
An engagent party is a significant event; if sothing really goes wrong, won’t it beco a joke for relatives and friends?
Yuan Yuqi shook her head, "No."
"Then what are you worried about?! He’s probably just trying to scare you, let’s go inside! Freezing out here..."
"No, it’s not possible. I know his personality; there’s no way he’s just bluffing, he’ll definitely show up. Sis, I’m begging you, help out here. Mom and Dad are both present, they’ve looked forward to this engagent party for a long ti, if it gets ruined they’ll be really upset, especially mom, you know she has a heart condition, I’m really afraid she’ll—"
Yuan Yung paused her departure, clenching her hands tightly. Yuan Yuqi was always like this, effortlessly striking her weak points.
She could disregard sisterly bonds but couldn’t ignore the debt of upbringing.
Turning around, she took a deep breath, "Go ahead, how do you want to help?"
