371: Chapter 371: Ruanruan, Full of Evil Qi, Crashes the Venue, Backed by Lord Huo 371: Chapter 371: Ruanruan, Full of Evil Qi, Crashes the Venue, Backed by Lord Huo Long Xinzhao flatly refused, without any hesitation: “No!”
Gu Qingqing approached and chid in sarcastically, “The beautiful Li Manning is out there performing, aren’t you going to check it out?”
Li Manning was a renowned actress in the country, and also a great singer-songwriter.
She grew up in a family of musicians and was guided by her parents to learn music from a young age.
Upon entering the entertainnt industry, she made her debut as an actress, but her passion for music remained strong.
Li Manning attracted a significant male fanbase with her debut role, which showcased her sexy image and figure.
Her fa skyrocketed after receiving the Best Actress award for her second movie at the Hundred Flowers Awards.
A few years later, she won the Best Actress award at the Eurasian International Film Festival for a movie directed by a famous dostic director.
The sa year Li Manning won the Best Actress award, her family set up a studio for her.
After the establishnt of Li Manning’s studio, her first TV series did not perform exceptionally well, but it did little to affect her influence.
In the subsequent years, Li Manning received nurous awards in both film and television dramas.
She can essentially be considered a top-tier actress dostically, and has even participated in international blockbusters multiple tis.
Her fa is well recognized, appealing to countless male fans and gaining favor among won as well.
At the ntion of this by Gu Qingqing, Long Xinzhao showed no reaction, but Lu Yichen seed quite interested.
“I heard Nangong Chang’s relationship with Li Manning is rather vague.
He invited his old fla to perform at his wedding today – who knows what he’s planning,” he said.
Gu Qingqing mocked, “His marriage to Xiao Wenrou is just for show.
Didn’t you see her glued to his side?
She can’t take her eyes off him!”
Lu Yichen ruthlessly burst her bubble, “Who are you kidding?
It’s as if you didn’t have your eyes glued on him too!”
This made Gu Qingqing furious, “I was just looking at him openly!
At least I have so sha, unlike her making a spectacle of herself!”
Long Xinzhao, with his chin in his hand, was still digesting the previous gossip, “Li Manning did date Nangong Chang for a while, she was always by his side then, and he was very showy about it.”
“I know!” exclaid Lu Yichen, “Li Manning has top-tier looks and figure.
She followed Nangong Chang for less than half a year before getting dumped.”
Long Xinzhao frowned in rembrance, “This woman is quite mysterious.
I think she was only involved with Nangong Chang for a while and didn’t have any other sugar daddies.”
Lu Yichen looked disgusted, “That’s true, that bastard Nangong Chang ruined my goddess.
Ever since I found out Li Manning was with him, all my fantasies about her vanished.”
“What fantasies?” Gu Qingqing asked with innocent, blinking eyes – though her gaze was laden with teasing laughter.
Lu Yichen’s brow lifted as he took in her appearance.
He gently shook his head, “Your figure…doesn’t even allow the luxury of having fantasies.”
“Lu Yichen!
You’re asking for it!”
Gu Qingqing, angry and humiliated, shot back driving her further into fury.
As Lu Yichen was about to retort, a commotion erupted at the entrance of the restaurant.
Tens of individuals in sinister black outfits stord into the little dining room normally ant for esteed guests.
Huo Zhi led several n to surround the restaurant, while others guarded the door, barring everyone from entering or leaving.
Clad in a comfortable leisure suit, Qin Ruan walked into the restaurant in the flat shoes personally put on her by Huo Yirong.
Her icy, chiseled features were filled with ominous intent, and her entire being seed to be enveloped by an agressive aura.
Huo Yirong frowned upon seeing Qin Ruan looking nacing as she walked in after changing her outfit.
His concern was justified.
She was not a delicate socialite, or a plotting young lady; she was just a woman from chaos-riddled West City who preferred speaking with her fists.
And she was clearly there to make a scene.
Qin Ruan slowly made her way into the restaurant, her frosty gaze scanning everyone present.
Her chilling and overwhelming presence made people both shocked and amused.
Shocked by her formidable aura that made one instinctively alert towards her, and amused by the fact that among everyone in the restaurant, she held the lowest status.
Every single person in the restaurant either belonged to one of the four major families, one of the six aristocratic families, or at the very least, was a well-known and powerful figure in their respective industries.
The Qin family behind Qin Ruan couldn’t afford to offend anyone present.
Of course, if the Huo family was her secret guardian, then everyone else had no say in the matter.
Huo Yirong certainly realized this as he quickly strode towards Qin Ruan.
With a gentle smile on his handso face, he softly asked Qin Ruan, “Why are you back, sister?
Did you leave sothing behind?”
Qin Ruan looked at him emotionlessly and sneered, “I forgot sothing.
I’m back to handle it.”
Huo Yirong noticed the resolve in her eyes and brow.
She obviously wasn’t going to back down.
He slightly furrowed his brows and whispered, “Does the third master know?”
The fact was, Qin Ruan was still pregnant.
If anything happened to her, not only their father, but also Huo Yirong himself would be held responsible.
Qin Ruan thought he was concerned about the repercussions on the Huo family due to her actions.
Squinting, her deanor icy, she clarified, “What I am about to do has nothing to do with the Huo family.
Please step aside, second master.”
Huo Yirong was taken aback, but soon comprehended her misunderstanding.
Clicking his tongue, he affected a loud voice, “Sister, what are you talking about?
You are part of the Huo family, carrying the most important grandson of our patriarch in your belly.
We will cover for whatever you do.
I’m just worried that your mood may affect your health and safety.
If anything happens, not only will our old man, but also the third master will be unhappy.
Guess who’s going to bear the brunt of it then.”
Throughout his speech, he maintained his air of jest.
However, the violent aura around Qin Ruan didn’t dissipate at all.
With no expression on her face, she strode past him towards Nangong Chang and Master Xu, her somber eyes reflecting an icy ruthlessness.
With every step she took, her frigid aura intensified.
Each movent embedded itself into everyone’s hearts.
Those present pulled on expressions of watching a good show unfold—it was indeed a rare event in a hundred years.
For many years, the four top families and six aristocratic families had never torn open their grudges to public view.
They had all heard what the second master Huo had just said.
Could it be that Qin Ruan intended to upset this long-standing balance?
Perhaps affected by Qin Ruan’s intimidating aura, Nangong Chang was also a little nervous.
Greeting her with a warm smile, he asked amicably, “Did the third master’s wife co back because of any issues at the Nangong family?”
Qin Ruan didn’t even spare him a glance.
She ca up to Master Xu, her deep eyes tinged with an icy ruthlessness as she indifferently asked, “Master Xu?”
