Chapter 218
Popular actress Fang Yu took a photo with Director Wu at last night's Hundred Flowers Gala, holding her gold medal. The two may collaborate in the future.
'Fang Yu, the youngest film queen.'
'Fang Yu's acceptance speech.'
"Fang Yu is the contemporary Water Queen."
'Fang Yuyan outshines Jiang Zhiqing.'
At first glance, the top five hot searches on the hot search square are all about Fang Yu. Fans of various groups gather below the hot searches. There are loyal fans who congratulate their sister for winning the Best Actress award, there are also fans who make all kinds of sarcastic remarks about Fang Yu buying hot searches, and there are even those who directly mock Fang Yu as the "Water Queen".
While the fans of "Unwavering Until Death" were arguing with fans of other groups in the comment section with ferocious faces, their real target was sitting in a luxury car and heading towards the Yin family's old residence.
"This banquet was held by the head of the Yin family to announce his adopted son to everyone. People like you should not be brought in. It is only because you helped me last time that I brought you here. You must be careful not to cause trouble when the time comes. Remember?" A young man in his twenties, wearing a burgundy custom-made suit, said to the beautiful woman beside him while lazily turning the steering wheel.
Despite saying so, Cao Jinwen was actually not that worried. Celebrities like Fang Yu must have attended many banquets like this, so he would naturally be able to handle it in a proper manner.
Fang Yu, who was sitting beside him, smiled charmingly, opened her red lips slightly, and said in a soft and seductive voice: "Remember, Master Cao, don't worry, I will never embarrass you."
Cao Jinwen chuckled, tapped the steering wheel with his index finger, and said meaningfully: "Of course I'm relieved, why should I be worried?"
Of course he was relieved. In such a situation, these stars were more afraid of making a fool of themselves and causing trouble than they were. After all, at a banquet of this level, if they offended even one person, the entertainment company would rush to ban them without anyone saying anything.
By then, all the efforts you have made for several years will be wasted.
But you have to look at both sides of the story. If you can get the favor of a big boss in such an occasion, it can be said to be a step to heaven. This is why Fang Yu used the favor Cao Jinwen owed her and asked Cao Jinwen to bring her to such an occasion.
Cao Jinwen knew what was going on.
Fang Yu curled her red lips slightly, chuckled and said nothing.
Wealthy families are divided into different levels. Although Cao Jinwen can be considered a wealthy family, he is just a new upstart who has only been prosperous for two generations. Fang Yu, who was reborn, has high aspirations and thinks that she is the chosen one. Of course, she is unwilling to choose such a new upstart family. She prefers those old families with a longer heritage, which are not only rich but also powerful.
She didn't dare to think about the top wealthy families, but she dared to think about those middle and upper wealthy families.
As for the husband in her past life who had allowed her to live a life of luxury? Now she despised him even less.
Thinking back to her previous life, although she lived the life of a wealthy wife, she was at the bottom of the wealthy wife's circle. She could only stand in the corner at every gathering and take photos, and she had to curry favor with those wealthy wives for her husband's sake.
She didn't want to be like this in her life. She, Fang Yu, wanted to be a wealthy wife that others would rush to curry favor with, instead of rushing to curry favor with others.
Fang Yu glanced at her own stunningly beautiful face in the rearview mirror and gently stroked the corner of her eyes with her hand.
When she was reborn more than ten years ago, she was not reborn into her own body, but into the body of a female star in the entertainment industry who was also named Fang Yu.
The woman who shared the same name as her had a truly beautiful face. Every time she looked in the mirror, she couldn't help but sigh that if she had had this face in her previous life, coupled with her means, she would have married into a wealthy family long ago. Why would she follow that incompetent husband to climb up step by step, enduring all kinds of contemptuous and mocking looks from the upper class?
Thinking of this, a hint of ambition flashed in Fang Yu's eyes. Without the burden and the unbearable experiences of the past, she would definitely have a brand new future after completely getting rid of the past.
Cao Jinwen, who was driving, glanced at her expression and sneered in his heart. There are always some people who are unwilling to be ordinary. It is not easy to marry into a wealthy family.
The car drove into the parking lot of the Yin family's old house and stopped. Fang Yu got out of the car and was almost dazzled by the luxury cars in the parking lot, some low-key, some luxurious, and some ostentatious.
Before she could come to her senses, Cao Jinwen came over from the other side of the car and raised his arm to signal her. Fang Yu, who had come to her senses, smiled coquettishly, took his arm and followed him towards the banquet venue.
Before she even reached the banquet venue, she could hear lively laughter and chatter coming from afar. The beautiful lights reflected the colorful waters of the lake, and the elegantly dressed figures and the lights of the chips intertwined. Along the way, Fang Yu saw many people who often appeared on financial channels, and even some businessmen that people in the circle were vying to get close to. She was secretly surprised by the grandeur of the banquet, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
When Fang Yu was looking over everyone and selecting her prey, Huo Youqi and others upstairs also noticed her. Their eyes fell on her, and a moment of darkness flashed in their eyes, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xie Shuyu turned around and picked up a suit: "White suits are too dull, I think this silver-gray one is nice."
Li Yubai disagreed: "The silver-gray one doesn't match Jiaojiao's temperament. This khaki one is nice."
Cloveford took out the suit he had custom-made for Jiaojiao and said, "This light blue one suits Jiaojiao better."
Huo Youqi denied: "I think this dark blue double-breasted suit is nice."
Jiaojiao, who was surrounded by them, was puffing up her cheeks angrily.
He's already six years old, but his father and his friends have a bad taste in their mouth and deliberately let Su Cang make him look like a two-year-old, saying that Jiaojiao was cuter when he was younger. Does that mean that the grown-up Jiaojiao is no longer cute?!
Thinking of this, Jiaojiao stomped her feet angrily, and then raised her hands obediently to help her father put on his clothes.
Hesnemen poked his bulging cheek under his knee in amusement and said, "Are you still angry? You're almost as angry as a pufferfish."
The shrunken Jiaojiao had to look up hard to see her father's face. She said in a muffled voice, "Jiaojiao is obviously grown up now and can protect the dads."
A smile flickered in Hesniemen's golden eyes. He leaned over, picked up Jiaojiao, and tossed her around in his arms, a hint of regret and melancholy in his eyes. "Jiaojiao is growing too fast. Before I could hold her long enough, she's already grown too old to be held. That's why I wanted to take this opportunity to let her stay at this age for a while longer."
Hearing this, Jiaojiao, who was in Hesniemen's father's arms, calmed down. He pursed his lips, raised his little hands to circle Hesniemen's neck, and rubbed his little face. After that, he was a little shy and deliberately said with a stern face: "Okay, this is the only time, Jiaojiao is still waiting to grow up."
Hesniemen chuckled, leaned over and rubbed Jiaojiao's soft face, with a doting smile in his voice: "Okay, just this once."
After putting on her clothes, Yin Zheng took Jiaojiao from Hesniemen's arms and carried her downstairs.
Jiaojiao was carried downstairs by her father. Her tender little white hands subconsciously grabbed her father's clothes on his chest. Her cat-like eyes were wide open, looking at everything around her with curiosity.
Jiaojiao, who had just come from the world of cultivation to such a strange world, was curious about everything. She kept turning her little head, looking at these existences that were completely different from the world of cultivation with novelty.
Everyone in the banquet hall downstairs who noticed the movement looked up, and their eyes subconsciously fell on the tall Yin Zheng.
Yin Zheng's tall figure is wrapped in a well-tailored suit, showing his broad shoulders and long legs. The gray suit faintly outlines his beautiful and strong upper body, and his long legs contain power with every step he takes.
He seemed to have noticed someone was looking at him, so he looked up. His sharp facial features and the double eyebrows that pressed down on his eyes made him look imposing. His dark eyes fell on everyone, and a dangerous and oppressive feeling came over them. They were a little breathless for a moment, and everyone subconsciously looked away, their eyes falling on the fair-skinned child sitting in the man's arms.
The light fell on the child's fluffy black hair, and the chubby little hands, which were dressed in the same gray suit as the man, looked especially white. The scattered light fell on the pair of dark eyes full of curiosity, like a handful of crushed starlight, shining as brightly as the stars in the night sky.
This child is so cute!
It was as delicate as if it was carefully carved out of jade. The small ball nestled in Yin Zheng's arms was like a ball of sweet glutinous rice, which made people feel soft just by looking at it.
It was no wonder that the head of the Yin family adopted him and even held such a banquet to announce his existence, inviting almost all the famous people in the entire Shangjing City.
Unlike everyone else, Fang Yu focused more of his attention on this man, the head of the Yin family, Yin Zheng.
Fang Yu dared to think about Cao Jinwen and most people at the banquet, but he never dared to think about Yin Zheng. It was not for any other reason, but because he knew the difference very well.
If Cao Jinwen and others are fireflies, then the existence of the Yin family is the bright moon, and she, Fang Yu, is even more like a grain of sand thousands of miles away from the bright moon. It would be fine if she could attract the attention of the firefly, but how could she dare to attract the attention of the bright moon.
And even if she dared to attract the attention of the Yin family, she had no way to get close to the Yin family.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu shifted his gaze and fixed his eyes on the protagonist of the banquet, the child in Yin Zheng's arms.
Her gaze froze at first, then widened in disbelief. She subconsciously wanted to move forward to see more clearly, but was almost stopped by Cao Jinwen.
This pull caused her to lose her balance in her high heels. She subconsciously reached out to hold the table beside her to steady herself. She accidentally touched the wine on the table and got red wine on her hand without noticing.
The red wine dripped down her cardamom-stained fingertips, as bright red as a blooming flower.
"What are you crazy about? You'd better not cause trouble for me." Cao Jinwen grabbed her arm, lowered his voice and frowned.
The Yin family is not someone he can afford to offend. If he really disrupts their banquet, then his Cao family will have no chance of surviving in the capital.
Fang Yu came back to his senses and forced a smile, saying, "Sorry, I just felt a little uncomfortable."
Seeing that her face was indeed not good, Cao Jinwen let go of her hand suspiciously: "You'd better be like this."
Fang Yu nodded in confusion, his eyes vaguely fixed on Jiaojiao who was being held by Yin Zheng in the distance.
Alike, so alike, this child looks exactly like the burden she abandoned.
In this life, she was reborn after that snowy night, reborn into someone else's body. She clearly remembered that day as the day she left that burden at the entrance of the alley, where he froze to death. But she didn't go to save him, not even to inquire whether he was dead or had a place to bury him. Getting rid of that burden always brought her relief and joy, and guilt was completely absent.
At this moment, Fang Yu was not sure whether the child in front of her was the burden. She remembered what Cao Jinwen had said before, that this banquet was held by the head of the Yin family to announce the existence of his adopted child. Her heartbeat gradually became faster, "bang bang" and "bang bang" beating against her chest like a drum.
She planned to check the child's information as soon as she returned.
If…if this child really was the burden, then wouldn't she have a reason to contact the Yin family?!
Maybe then... maybe she will be able to marry into the Yin family in the end. After all, who would be more suitable to take care of the child than her biological mother!
Thinking of this, Fang Yu cast a subtle glance at the socialites at the banquet, a look that suggested he viewed them as rivals. You have to know that many in the wealthy circle were interested in Yin Zheng. To these socialites, having an adopted son wasn't a major drawback; in a way, it even represented Yin Zheng's kindness.
The more she thought about it, the more vigilance and hostility in Fang Yu's eyes became. She looked away and fixed her gaze on Jiaojiao, who was held in Yin Zheng's arms, with unconcealable greed and expectation in her eyes.
Jiaojiao turned his little head to meet her gaze and was stunned. Although he didn't know this person, he was subconsciously a little scared.
Jiaojiao turned her head and burrowed into her father's arms, as if she subconsciously wanted to hide herself.
"What's wrong?" Yin Zheng looked down at Jiaojiao in his arms.
Jiaojiao tugged at her father's clothes with her little hands, and looked up at him with her fair and tender face: "Dad, Jiaojiao is very good."
"Well, Jiaojiao is very well behaved." Yin Zheng touched the back of Jiaojiao's round head soothingly with his big hand, with some doubt in his dark eyes, as if he didn't understand why Jiaojiao suddenly said that.
"Be good, and I won't hit Jiaojiao."
Yin Zheng's eyes froze for a moment, and then he suddenly looked up and looked straight at Fang Yu on the sidelines.
The gaze was too obscure and sharp. Fang Yu, who was caught off guard by his gaze, felt his heart tighten and was a little breathless for a moment.
After she recovered, she covered her chest and looked at Yin Zheng again, but found that he had already looked away. This made her wonder if she had seen it wrong.
I think she must have seen it wrong. She had no previous interactions with the head of the Yin family. It was impossible for him to have any opinions about a little actress like her for no reason.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu's somewhat panicked heart gradually calmed down.
Yin Zheng introduced Jiaojiao in his arms to everyone. His every word and action showed how much he valued Jiaojiao. Seeing this, everyone treated the adopted child more cautiously. At least, there was no contempt and indifference in their words as at the beginning.
When leaving, Fang Yu looked back, but only saw Yin Zheng carrying Jiaojiao upstairs.
On the upper floor where she couldn't see, Shang Que, Huo Youqi, Li Yubai and others were looking down at her condescendingly.
They all saw clearly Jiaojiao's reaction downstairs just now. Thinking that Jiaojiao had obviously lost her memory, but still felt subconsciously afraid when she saw this person, the few of them looked at Fang Yu with increasingly unfriendly eyes.
