A thunderous round of applause erupted.
A spotlight shone on the VIP area.
Under the spotlight, Huo Xiuxiu slowly rose and walked gracefully and elegantly to the display stand.
Wow, what a beautiful woman!
"She's so beautiful! And her demeanor is so elegant!"
"My God, this woman is an absolute stunner."
The straight men watching the live stream online also started to get excited.
"I want all information about the goddess, her beauty is simply awe-inspiring."
"So beautiful, is she mixed race?"
"She would absolutely outshine half of the female celebrities in the entertainment industry."
Bringing up topics like "outshining female celebrities in the entertainment industry" is tantamount to inciting conflict.
However, most fans still admire Huo Xiuxiu's appearance.
Soon, information about Huo Xiuxiu was exposed online.
"The young heiress of the Huo Group is already capable of serving as the CEO of the Huo Group at such a young age. She is indeed remarkable."
"A woman who can casually spend hundreds of millions to buy a painting is no ordinary person."
"She really is a goddess, a goddess who comes with her own value."
Huo Xiuxiu successfully became the focus of today's exhibition.
The title of "Huo Family Daughter" is already dazzling enough, and with the added fact that she is also Ye Bai's disciple, it can be said that from today onwards, she will be the most sought-after socialite in aristocratic circles.
Qin Lin saw this and her eyes lit up.
"See? Such an outstanding girl, you probably couldn't find one even with a lantern. She's engaged to you now."
Gu Jueye, standing to the side, had his eyes lowered and was sending messages on his phone.
It seems he didn't even glance at Huo Xiuxiu's highlight moment on stage.
Qin Lin glared at Gu Jueye with exasperation.
Are you even listening to what I'm saying?
"I'm listening!"
"So what's your opinion on Xiuxiu?"
"I'm not familiar with them, so I have no opinion!"
Qin Lin: "..." She almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
This guy really won't stop until he's infuriated her.
"What do you mean by 'I have no opinion because I'm not familiar with them'? How can people become familiar with each other if they don't interact? You've had too little contact with girls since you were young, which is why you've taken a liking to Bai Qianmo. To be honest, if you put Bai Qianmo and Huo Xiuxiu together, anyone with eyes can see who is more outstanding. Why can't you see that?"
Song Qing, who was standing to the side, moved her lips, but the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat.
Gu Jueye doesn't indulge his own mother.
He scoffed, "Do you know how far the human eye can see?"
Qin Lin was a little confused by her son's sudden remark.
"What does this have to do with what I said?"
"The normal standard of human vision is 1.0 on the E chart at a distance of five meters. Under normal circumstances, the farthest distance that the human eye can see is 500 meters. Beyond 500 meters, human vision will become blurry."
"Wait, what do you mean by telling me all this?"
As the boy's mother, although she couldn't quite keep up with her son's erratic thinking, she knew he wasn't one to talk nonsense.
Gu Jueye raised an eyebrow.
"What's so praiseworthy about what an ordinary person, who can only see 500 meters away, can see?"
Qin Lin: "..." What kind of thinking is this?
She said that anyone with eyes could see that Bai Qianmo was inferior to Huo Xiuxiu, yet this kid was talking to her about people's eyesight.
She's being driven crazy.
Gu Jueye, however, remained calm and composed, continuing to slowly type on his phone.
Brother Qian: Did you watch the video?
Fairy: I saw it.
Brother Qian: Do you know this person?
The fairy sent me a dog emoji with a big eye bag.
I don't know him, but I'm certain he's Huo Xiuxiu's person.
Brother Qian: Yes, I've already had someone investigate. As long as they find out this person's identity and past, there will definitely be some clues to be found.
When are you coming back?
Fairy: I'll go back after I finish filming these two days.
After sending the message, Bai Qianmo couldn't help but add another sentence.
Little Fairy: ☆ㄟ(???)ㄏ☆ I missed you so much!
Upon seeing the message from the fairy, Gu Jueye smiled faintly.
Qin Lin glanced at Gu Jueye.
"After the exhibition ends, why don't you treat Xiuxiu to a simple meal?"
Gu Jueye frowned and looked at Qin Lin.
"I have to go back to the research institute later."
"Don't always use work as an excuse. You're a grown man now, and I don't want to pressure you, but Xiuxiu and you are engaged. Although your grandparents haven't expressed their opinions, this marriage is inevitable. You should break up with that girl Bai Qianmo as soon as possible and try dating Xiuxiu. I guarantee you'll fall in love with this girl."
Gu Jueye fiddled with his phone with his slender fingers, seemingly deep in thought.
After pondering for a while, he ultimately did not refute Qin Lin's words.
Ms. Qin reminded him that if the engagement wasn't dissolved, the two elders wouldn't be able to say anything.
The exhibition ended
Qin Lin pulled Gu Jueye toward Huo Xiuxiu.
"Xiuxiu, your Aunt Ji and I have things to do later, so let Aye take you home. It'll be good for you young people to get to know each other better."
Huo Xiuxiu smiled and looked at Gu Jueye: "Mr. Gu, aren't you busy?"
"Quite busy!" Gu Jueye made no attempt to hide his lack of interest.
Huo Xiuxiu awkwardly maintained her smile.
"Well..." she said, glancing awkwardly at Qin Lin.
Qin Lin secretly tugged at her son: "He was just joking, don't take it to heart. You've only been in the capital for a short time, and you're not familiar with the area yet. It's good to have A-Ye take you around."
Qin Lin gave Gu Jueye a warning glare, then pulled Song Qing away first.
Gu Jueye looked at Huo Xiuxiu with a blank expression.
“Miss Huo, my mother’s attitude does not represent my personal opinion. We are all adults, and I think you should know that I have a girlfriend.”
Huo Xiuxiu was surprised that Gu Jueye brought up his girlfriend so directly.
A shrewd smile appeared on her beautiful face.
"Mr. Gu, are you aware that we are engaged?"
Gu Jueye glanced coldly at Huo Xiuxiu: "Miss Huo seems to have some misunderstanding about our Gu family."
"What do you mean by that, Mr. Gu?"
Gu Jueye curled his lips into a half-smile as he looked at her.
“Apart from my mother, no one in the Gu family believes that this marriage certificate can bind me.”
Although Gu Jueye wasn't interested in Huo Xiuxiu, he still had to have this meal today.
If you want to catch big fish, you have to be willing to feed them.
