"Stay away from that man from now on," Huo Yanzhen instructed Su Miao.
Since Yuan Chengyan and Huo Yanting parted ways, Huo Yanting told Huo Yanzhen to stay away from him. In addition, Yuan Chengyan's scheme against Huo Yanting last time made Huo Yanzhen dislike Yuan Chengyan even more.
"I understand." Su Miao understood. Judging from Huo Yanzhen's attitude towards that man, she knew he wasn't a friend.
"Okay, let's get our hair and makeup done."
"Huh?" Why are you getting your hair styled?
"What do you mean 'huh'? Let's go."
Huo Yanzhen pulled Su Miao away.
At 7 p.m., Huo Yanzhen and Su Miao arrived at the birthday banquet on time. By then, quite a few people had already arrived, and many luxury cars were parked in front of the villa.
The fact that the Huo family was invited to a banquet suggests that the host family must be quite influential in Haicheng.
"This family is surnamed Song. The head of the family, Song Qing, is fifty-five years old this year and is holding a birthday banquet, inviting many prominent families in Haicheng to attend. Once you go in, just follow me."
Huo Yanzhen and Su Miao walked side by side, and Huo Yanzhen introduced the Song family to Su Miao.
Su Miao was a little nervous, her hands clenched tightly, but after a month of study, she was mentally prepared.
She nodded after hearing Huo Yanzhen's words.
Try not to be so nervous.
"You don't need to be nervous. You should think about it: you are Huo Yanting's wife. If all these people inside knew your identity, they would have to turn around and flatter you, calling you Mrs. Huo."
Mrs. Huo?
Su Miao thought about it and realized it made sense, so she wasn't so nervous anymore.
Huo Yanzhen, having grown up in a wealthy family, may not often attend such occasions, but she is still quite adept at dealing with certain people.
Because of her status, many people at the banquet naturally greeted her and clinked glasses with her.
Su Miao held a glass of red wine, only taking a few sips now and then, and didn't drink much.
She glanced around the banquet hall but couldn't see Huo Yanting anywhere, which made her a little disappointed. Didn't he say he was coming back? Why is he nowhere to be seen?
Just as Su Miao was lost in thought, a woman's voice rang out beside her, but she was calling out to Huo Yanzhen.
"Yan Zhen, I saw you from afar. Welcome to my uncle's birthday banquet." Song Suya walked over, holding a glass of red wine.
Her family was a branch of the Song family, related to Song Qing, so naturally she could come over.
Huo Yanzhen remained as indifferent as ever, "Hmm."
Clink glasses with her.
Song Suya knew that Huo Yanzhen was always stubborn and looked down on people, but even with so many people around, Huo Yanzhen still didn't give her any face, which made Song Suya feel somewhat uncomfortable.
Upon seeing Su Miao, she asked, "And who is this?"
"She's my friend, I brought her here."
"My friend, I don't know her name, but she's Yan Zhen's friend, so she's my friend too. Which family's daughter are you from?"
"My surname is Su."
"So you're Miss Su. My surname is Song. Please take care of me from now on." Song Suya extended her hand to Su Miao.
She believed that the person Huo Yanzhen brought must be of extraordinary status, and befriending her was definitely the right thing to do. Although she had never met her, she assumed it was because Huo Yanzhen had lived abroad since childhood.
Seeing Song Suya extend her hand, Su Miao glanced at Huo Yanzhen. Only after receiving Huo Yanzhen's nod did she shake her hand.
After Song Suya left to attend to other guests, Huo Yanzhen told Su Miao, "She is Su Qing."
"What?" She's Su Qing? No way?
How could a rich young lady do something like plagiarism?
“I used to hang out with her for a while, but later I found out she was developing her career in the tennis world. I admired her writing skills at the time, but later I found out that she started out by plagiarism and even plagiarized my work. We made a fuss about it for a while, and then I stopped contacting her. I didn’t expect that she would change websites and still not change her ways.”
