Chapter 773 Waiting for an Opportunity
Xiao Muzhen didn't hesitate and said, "Let's go have lunch first. I'm so hungry."
Xiao Muzhen came here this morning without even having breakfast, and now he is starving.
"Well, let's go. I have to put on makeup later this afternoon."
The two found a restaurant nearby and went home after eating.
Xiao Muzhen didn't want to go out in the afternoon, so she asked the makeup artist to come to her house.
By the time the two of them finished putting on their makeup, it was already past four in the afternoon.
Xiao Muzhen and Shen Tian changed their clothes and drove to the Xiao family to pick up Xun Zi.
Seeing Xiao Muzhen, Xun Zi couldn't help but praise him.
"My daughter is so beautiful today. She will definitely charm many people!"
Xiao Muzhen raised an eyebrow and said, "Stop praising me. I'll be proud if you continue to praise me."
"You're beautiful, so it's perfectly okay to be a little proud."
Xiao Muzhen: "..."
Half an hour later, Xiao Muzhen parked the car in front of the hotel and several people got out together.
After they walked to the door and showed the invitation, the waiter led them in.
The Su family held this banquet in the most luxurious Huarong Hotel in Beijing. They booked the entire hotel so that guests who were drunk or came from far away could stay directly in the hotel.
The banquet was held in the largest Lingxiao Hall, which was decorated magnificently. All the golden decorations were made of pure gold, and the cost of a night banquet was close to tens of millions.
When they walked in, there were already many people in the banquet hall.
In the center of the banquet hall, Su Baitian was sitting in a wheelchair, and Huo Yunting was standing next to him in a silver-gray suit. He was surrounded by business celebrities and easily attracted other people's attention.
Xun Zi saw a few familiar ladies and looked at Xiao Muzhen and Shen Tian and said, "Zhenzhen, Miss Shen, you guys go have fun. I'll go say hello to a few ladies I know."
Xiao Muzhen nodded, "Okay."
As soon as Xun Zi left, a man in a black suit, about 27 or 28 years old, walked up to Xiao Muzhen and started chatting with her.
"Good evening, Miss Xiao. I'm Zhao Qifeng, the son of President Long Feng. I wonder if I'd be lucky enough to ask Miss Xiao to dance with me?"
Xiao Muzhen had heard of Long Feng, who was considered a leader in the fabric business in Beijing, but she had no interest in him.
Just as I was about to refuse, a laughing voice sounded from behind me.
"Mr. Zhao, Miss Xiao is the one I'm pursuing. If you want to pursue her, why don't you line up?"
Hearing this voice, Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but frown.
She thought she had made it very clear before, but she didn't expect that Sunan hadn't given up yet.
When he saw Su Nan, a hint of surprise flashed in Zhao Qifeng's eyes, but Long Feng was far behind the Su family, and there was no benefit in offending Su Nan.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: "Since Second Young Master Su is pursuing Miss Xiao, then I won't disturb you. Miss Xiao, goodbye."
After saying that, Zhao Qifeng turned around and left quickly.
Looking at his back, Su Nan snorted coldly, then looked at Xiao Muzhen and said, "Miss Xiao, if he comes to bother you again in the future, just tell him my name."
Xiao Muzhen's expression was cold. "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Su, but no need for that. I'm not at the point where I need to refuse someone by saying a man's name."
Su Nan didn't care about her attitude and still had a warm smile on his face.
"Ms. Xiao, why are you so hostile to me? Is there something I did wrong?"
Xiao Muzhen looked indifferent, "No, it's just that I have no interest in Second Young Master Su, and I hope Second Young Master Su will stay away from me."
Su Nan's smile remained unchanged. "If Miss Xiao gave me a chance to get to know me, she might be interested in me. What do you think?"
She didn't expect this guy to be so shameless. Even after she said that, he still stuck to her like a plaster and wouldn't leave.
"Second Young Master Su, today is the Su family's banquet. You don't want to be charged with harassing the guests, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Su Nan's face suddenly darkened.
But it was only for a moment, and his face returned to its previous gentleness.
"Alas, since Miss Xiao is unwilling to give me a chance to understand, I won't force it. I wish Miss Xiao a happy night!"
After Su Nan left, Shen Tian frowned and said, "This Su Nan is not a good guy at first glance. It's better to stay away from him in the future."
"Um."
"Let's go sit over there for a while."
When passing by the dessert area, Xiao Muzhen took two small cakes and a glass of juice for Chen Tian, and took a cocktail for himself.
Not long after the two sat down, a burst of discussion came from the side.
"Hey, did you see that just now? Jing Xuechu and Huo Yunting were standing together chatting. Now everyone is guessing that the Jing family should marry into the Su family."
"Marriage is also normal. Looking around the capital, apart from the Su family, no other family can rival the Jing family in strength. Jing Xuechu probably doesn't even look down on men from other families."
"If Xiao Muzhen had known that Huo Yunting was Su Baitian's son, she probably wouldn't have agreed to break up even if she had insisted. I wonder if she's regretting it now?"
"Keep your voice down, the person you were talking about is sitting not far from you!"
"So what if she's sitting there? Besides being prettier than Jing Xuechu, what else can she compare to Jing Xuechu? I'm just stating a fact. Am I still afraid of her?"
…
Chen Tian frowned when she heard this, and stood up to argue with the woman, but was stopped by Xiao Muzhen.
"Okay, you're pregnant now, so don't get too emotional. If she wants to talk, let her. I've only heard of dogs biting people, but never heard of people biting dogs."
Shen Tian couldn't help but burst out laughing, nodded and said: "You are right."
The woman who had mentioned Xiao Muzhen earlier turned green in an instant, and suddenly raised her voice, "Who are you talking about?"
Xiao Muzhen raised an eyebrow, "Whoever responds to me will do it."
"Xiao Muzhen, don't go too far! Do you think I'll be afraid of you just because you're the adopted daughter of the Xiao family?! What I said is the truth. What right do you have to scold me?"
The other party's voice was full of questioning and anger, but Xiao Muzhen looked calm.
"Did I mention your name?"
"you!"
The woman in the yellow dress next to her quickly pulled her back and whispered, "Alright, stop talking. It would be too embarrassing if we start arguing at the banquet later."
The woman's voice not only did not lower, but instead rose a few degrees, with indignation on her face.
"I'm not the only one who's embarrassed! Do I have to swallow my grievances after being scolded?! I can't do that!"
Her voice was loud and soon attracted a lot of people's attention.
Seeing Xiao Muzhen become the focus of the crowd, Su Nan, who was standing in the corner, was so angry that his cheeks were clenched.
If that idiot dares to ruin his plan, he will never let her go!
The waiter next to him was holding two glasses of juice and looked a little hesitant. "Second Young Master Su...should I go over now?"
"Wait a minute, after this is over, find another opportunity to deliver the juice. Make sure Xiao Muzhen drinks that juicy glass of juice!"
