Jiang Can was stunned.
She didn't know anyone from Yangcheng, so what was the purpose of this invitation?
"Second Miss?" Aunt Zhou urged her from the other end, "When are you coming to pick it up?"
"Oh, then tomorrow..."
Before Jiang Can could finish speaking, Zhou Sao hurriedly agreed, followed by Jiang Yao's domineering voice.
"How many times have I called you? Are you deaf?! If you can't continue working here, then get back to your hometown!"
Aunt Zhou hurriedly hung up the phone, and Jiang Can shook his head helplessly after hearing several busy tones.
"Who were you talking to just now?" Jiang Yao crossed her arms and scrutinized Zhou Sao with a critical look.
Aunt Zhou was usually afraid of her, and when she was asked this question, she stammered and couldn't say a word.
Jiang Yao looked down and saw the letter in her hand.
"What's this?"
Aunt Zhou's face stiffened, and she tried to hide behind her back, but it was too late.
"Take it out!"
"Young Miss, this..."
Seeing Zhou Sao's timid and hesitant manner, Jiang Yao felt even more annoyed and took a step forward to snatch it away forcefully!
Aunt Zhou couldn't stand it anymore and sighed, saying:
"Young Miss, this letter is for the Second Young Miss, you can't..."
"This is my home!" Jiang Yao shook her head and sneered. "What's wrong with it?"
"If anyone can't, it's you, old hag, who shouldn't interfere in my affairs! Go do what you're supposed to do and don't get in my way!"
"This is a letter from the second young lady!" Aunt Zhou exclaimed anxiously. "She said she'll come to pick it up tomorrow!"
"Ha, you're quite loyal to her, huh!" Jiang Yao gritted her teeth. "I'm going to open it and see! What's it to you?"
"If you dare say another word, I'll have Dad send you back to your hometown, and you won't get a single penny of your retirement pension!"
Aunt Zhou glanced at her helplessly, then silently turned and went to the kitchen.
Jiang Yao was very pleased with herself, but just as she was about to open the letter, her expression changed.
The envelope bore the large words "Invitation" and an address below, indicating it was sent from the Huo family in Yangcheng...
A fire ignited in Jiang Yao's heart, and she was so angry she wanted to bite her teeth.
She quickly tore open the letter, and sure enough, a beautiful invitation fell out.
Ms. Jiang Can is invited to the dinner party.
The signature was—
Huo Zhiyan?!
Jiang Yao was taken aback.
She remembered being stopped at the entrance of the Huo family's banquet last time and overhearing some discussions. Although the third young master was the most favored in the Huo family, Huo Zhiyan, as the eldest grandson, also held considerable weight in the family.
But how did Jiang Can get involved with Huo Zhiyan?
Just then, the landline rang, and the maid ran to answer it and handed the phone to Jiang Yao.
"Yes...yes, they're looking for the Second Miss."
Jiang Yao took the invitation and heard a gentle and polite voice on the other end: "Hello, Miss Jiang. Our young master sincerely invites you to attend a banquet with him. Please arrange your time in advance. Someone will pick you up and take you to the airport."
"And a formal dress, huh... The young master specifically instructed that a designer should come to your home to take your measurements!"
"Miss Jiang, is there anything else you need?"
Jiang Yao angrily hung up the phone, feeling more and more resentful. Why was this little bitch always surrounded by either Young Master Bai or Young Master Huo?
Have all the women in the world died? Is she the only woman men can see?!
In a fit of anger, Jiang Yao almost tore the invitation in half!
However, just as she was about to make her move, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind...
Since Jiang Can was able to marry Gu Mang in her place, why couldn't she attend this banquet in Jiang Can's place?
Ha, the person on the phone kept calling out "Miss Jiang", but there is only one Miss Jiang in this family, and that is Jiang Yao!
Anyway, they're all young masters of the Huo family. It doesn't matter if they're the eldest or the third young master. If they can marry into the Huo family, they can hold their heads high in the entire Jiangzhou and even the central city!
Thinking of this, a sinister and smug expression appeared on her face.
"Sister Zhou!"
"Young Miss..." Aunt Zhou rushed over in a hurry. At first, she was a little nervous, but when she looked up, she suddenly realized that Jiang Yao seemed to be in a good mood.
"What are your orders, young lady?"
“Call them back,” Jiang Yao said, raising her chin. “Tell them I’m available anytime to have a designer come and take my measurements!”
"Also, make another call to Jiang Can!" she laughed coldly.
"On the day the stylist does my hair and makeup, I'm going to make that little bitch watch as the Huo family takes me away!"
...
Jiang Can arrived at the gate of the Jiang family mansion as scheduled.
She stood there hesitating for a while, not wanting to ring the doorbell, because she really didn't want to enter this home that didn't belong to her.
Just then, Aunt Zhou ran out from inside and waved to her.
"Second Miss, you've arrived!"
"Aunt Zhou." Jiang Can smiled and nodded politely. Aunt Zhou led her inside, but as soon as she stepped in, she sensed a different atmosphere.
"Aunt Zhou, didn't you say you had a letter for me?"
The old maid looked troubled, glanced upstairs, and stammered, "Upstairs, Second Miss... come with me."
Jiang Can followed him in confusion, but Aunt Zhou led her into Jiang Yao's room.
Before she could react, she was startled by a drawn-out "sister".
"Hey, my little sister's here! Come over here, what do you think of my outfit?"
Jiang Can was stunned for a moment.
Jiang Yao's dress is indeed sexy and alluring, highlighting her figure beautifully, with her key areas subtly revealed. Her makeup is also exquisite, clearly the result of careful preparation.
“This is stylist Andy,” Jiang Yao boasted proudly, “and also the chief designer for IV and CiCi!”
