Unlike her previous stunning appearances, Tang Li was very low-key this time, with both her clothing and makeup being quite conventional.
It's not embarrassing, but it's not particularly eye-catching either.
So low-key that the moment she appeared, she became the center of attention.
This time, however, what drew attention was not her as a person, but her identity as Huo Chenyu's ex-wife.
On the way here, Lu Zhixing even teased her:
"I stole Mr. Huo's girlfriend. Is he cursing me right now?"
Tang Li disagreed: "He has a fiancée."
Instead, Lu Zhixing suddenly returned.
Tang Li was very curious.
"Didn't you say you were going to wait until after the Spring Festival to go back to China? Why are you suddenly in such a hurry to come back?"
Sheng Chaosheng only had one adopted son.
If he doesn't spend the holiday with the old man, how heartbroken the old man will be.
But Lu Zhixing smiled and said:
“My father is a surfing expert. You made a high-profile appearance as my female companion before. Although he is abroad, he knows everything that is happening in China.”
The original plan was to return on the sixth day of the first lunar month.
"As soon as your affair with President Huo became a trending topic, my father rushed me back home, saying that he could live for at least another twenty years, and once his wife ran off with someone else, it would be for life."
The old man is quite interesting.
The banquet hall had become a large-scale gossip-watching scene.
The chamber of commerce president, leading the way in observing the situation, immediately asked Tang Li upon seeing him:
"The first time I met Miss Tang, you were just Zhixing's companion. The second time I met Miss Tang, you became the president of Yuntang Group. And now, you are that kid Shen Yu's ex-wife. Just how many faces does Miss Tang have that we have never seen before?"
I've seen people sitting in the front row eating melon seeds.
I didn't see anyone actively reaching out to ask for melons.
Tang Li smiled and linked arms with Lu Zhixing, playfully teasing herself:
"Perhaps the next time I see you, I will be Mrs. So-and-so."
This display of affection is quite something.
Huo Chenyu, who happened to be walking over, looked rather embarrassed.
The chamber of commerce president reached out his hand to him:
"Chen Yu, you've come at the right time. Your ex-wife is getting married. As her ex-husband, shouldn't you send her a congratulatory gift?"
People in business tend to have little regard for personal relationships.
Seeing Huo Chenyu's arrogant expression, as if everyone owed him money, Tang Li, fearing he might offend someone, spoke first:
"President Huo, please go ahead with the remarriage. I'd like to earn a return gift."
Snatch the bamboo shoots!
It's one thing to kill someone and destroy their spirit, but to rob them of their money is another.
The chamber of commerce president was at the forefront of gossip, offering online consultations:
"Shen Yu, has your marriage been settled yet?"
Huo Chenyu nodded:
"I'll let you in on a secret, it's settled."
Is this considered quiet?
Everyone heard it.
They practically wanted to give him a megaphone and start yelling at him.
And it was decided so quickly.
It must have been decided on the day he rushed back to Tanzhou.
Pooh!
That scumbag!
They've already arranged the marriage, why are you still bothering her?
Tang Li was filled with grievances, but she had no choice but to put on a smile.
"That's good. Which day?" the Chamber of Commerce president asked persistently.
April 26th.
It's April 26th!!
Today is February 10th.
Tomorrow is Lunar New Year's Eve.
"More than two months to go, just waiting for the invitations." After saying that, the president added, "Is there any particular significance to the date?"
Huo Chenyu glanced at Tang Li and said without any hesitation:
"That day was Miss Tang's birthday."
Are you sick?!
This man must have some serious illness!
The attack was aimed directly at Tang Li, and Lu Zhixing was just about to help her out.
But then Tang Li chuckled and said:
"This date was chosen well. April 26th, twenty-four years ago, was the day my mother suffered maternal pain. If she were alive, she would not be able to bear seeing the precious child she risked her life to give birth to meet such a terrible person. Fortunately, Mr. Huo has found someone he loves, and I have also met a good man."
They portrayed their marriage as one of suffering and hardship.
Huo Chenyu felt a pang in his heart, as if he had been stabbed by something sharp.
Looking at Tang Li again, she had bright eyes and white teeth, and a smile as beautiful as a flower.
He and Lu Zhixing wished they could become one.
She seems to have finally reached the shore from the endless sea of suffering.
The president of the chamber of commerce led the applause.
"What a wonderful phrase, 'already having found love,' and what a wonderful phrase, 'having met a good man.' Miss Tang's magnanimity is truly admirable."
Is it generous?
Tang Li wished she could stab him twice on the spot.
That scumbag didn't show her any mercy whatsoever.
As the leader of the onlookers, the Chamber of Commerce president naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to ask Lu Zhixing:
"Zhixing, you're not getting any younger. Grandpa Sheng is definitely waiting to hold his grandson. When do you and Miss Tang plan to get married?"
This problem is both simple and difficult.
Lu Zhixing glanced down at Tang Li and smiled:
"I'm just an ordinary person. The date is set for May 20th, so I'll give Mr. Huo a gift first."
Waiting to receive a return gift from President Huo.
That couple took all the bamboo shoots from the mountain.
What a despicable fellow!
Huo Chenyu raised an eyebrow and glared at Tang Li.
Tang Li leaned shyly into Lu Zhixing's arms and whispered in agreement:
"Coincidentally, I happen to like ordinary people."
This dog food is ridiculous.
This display of affection is quite something.
Is that polite?
Huo Chenyu was at a disadvantage again.
Fortunately, the chamber of commerce president then asked, "Shen Yu, why didn't you bring your fiancée with you tonight?"
That's right.
He seems to have come alone, right?
wrong.
It seems they brought Jiang Mian with them.
