8 p.m.
Gradually more and more people came into the banquet hall.
He Shaoye accompanied Mrs. He to receive guests at the door. He was wearing a blue-black suit. The glasses on his nose blocked his deep eyes. The broken hair on his forehead added a bit of decadence to his temperament, giving him a sense of being a playboy.
But he didn't seem to be concentrating, and he kept looking at the corridor, as if he was waiting for someone.
Mrs. He had just finished chatting with a few old friends when she turned around and saw He Shaoye looking distracted. She feigned anger and said, "Who are you thinking about again? You even skipped your mother's birthday. How unfilial."
He Shaoye retracted his gaze and said jokingly, "Didn't you tell me to settle down and get married sooner?"
Mrs. He snorted lightly, "I want you to get married and have children soon."
At this point, her expression turned unhappy, and she lowered her voice and said, "Your grandfather's health is not optimistic, and your father's little devil outside is ready to make a move. If you had a child, I wouldn't have to be so passive in the fight for shares."
In the past, He Shaoye would have just laughed it off. But now, he touched his bare ring finger and said, "It's almost there."
Mrs. He was surprised and was about to ask something when she was interrupted by the guests who came in, "Mrs. He, long time no see."
"Mrs. Zhong, you're here too.
...
At this time, almost all the guests had arrived. Seeing that Mrs. He was chatting endlessly with her old friend, He Shaoye went in to entertain her friend first.
"Stop talking, let's go in too." Zhong Taidao.
Mrs. He smiled and said, "Please."
However, just as Mrs. He and Mrs. Zhong were walking in arm in arm, they were suddenly stopped by a thin voice from behind.
"Mrs. He."
Turning around, she saw a shabbily dressed young girl standing awkwardly behind her.
He Tai frowned slightly, "Who are you?"
Bai Xiaoying held her belly with one hand and asked, "Can I talk to you?"
“.......”
-
"Mr. He, why don't you bring a female companion?"
"Exactly. I'm afraid I'm spoiled for choice."
Surrounding He Shaoye were several rich second-generations of the same age as him. Unlike He Shaoye, these people had no other hobbies except eating, drinking and having fun.
He Shaoye was about to explain that Su Man was still putting on makeup when he suddenly noticed that these second-generation rich kids were staring at the door.
"how..."
He Shaoye looked back curiously and also turned off the sound.
Suman was wearing a nude pink gown with long silk straps that folded behind her slender neck and fell on her fair back.
Her long hair was casually tied behind her head, her makeup was light, and her lips were a bean paste color. She looked like she had just woken up, but with a lovable fragility.
This is the kind of beauty that men cannot resist the most, the kind that makes them want to protect and destroy at the same time.
He Shaoye swallowed unconsciously, and at this moment, he had the idea of spending the rest of his life with Su Man.
His feet were one step ahead of his consciousness and walked towards Suman.
The closer the distance, the faster his heart beat.
When he could see the light-colored mole on Su Man's nose, he was suddenly blocked by Mrs. He.
Mrs. He's face looked serious. "Follow me."
"Mom, I have something else to do, wait a minute..."
"Now, follow me."
Mrs. He pulled him away without caring about anything.
He Shaoye could only lip-sync to Su Man: I'll be back soon.
Su Man smiled and pointed to where she was, indicating that she would wait for him.
-
Mrs. He pulled He Shaoye all the way to the lounge.
He Shaoye was helpless, "Mom, there are so many guests downstairs, where are you taking me?"
"Follow me and you'll find out."
When the door of the lounge opened, He Shaoye was slightly startled, and a feeling of disgust spread belatedly.
"Bai Xiaoying, why are you here?"
"I..."
Bai Xiaoying clutched the hem of her clothes, looking embarrassed.
When He Taiyi saw that they knew each other, she believed Bai Xiaoying's words about 70%.
She sat in the middle of the sofa and said, "Sit down and talk."
Bai Xiaoying still looked frightened, neither standing nor sitting.
He Shaoye frowned, "What are you doing here?"
Mrs. He's eyes fell on Bai Xiaoying, "She is pregnant with your child."
"What?"
-
The banquet hall is still bustling even without its host.
It seemed that they were not here to attend the birthday party, but to find an opportunity to expand their network.
As He Shaoye disappeared for longer and longer periods of time, Su Man became suspicious.
What on earth could have caused Mrs. He and He Shaoye, the two masters, to leave for so long?
As I was thinking about it, the lights in the banquet hall gradually dimmed, leaving only the open space in the center with light.
Everyone gathered in the center of the banquet hall, and Su Man followed.
Su Man saw Bai Xiaoying in the crowd at a glance.
At this moment, she was wearing the red evening dress that she had just picked out, holding He Shaoye's arm, looking like a little bird.
When Su Man saw the black jade plate on her neck that obviously did not match the dress, she suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.
This is...
"Thank you all for coming to my birthday party. I have some good news to share with you."
Su Man's thoughts were interrupted by Mrs. He. Mrs. He turned around, took Bai Xiaoying's hand, and pulled her in front of the crowd. "My son Shaoye has been a mischievous boy these past few years. Luckily, he met Xiaoying. Today, I'm planning to celebrate twice by getting them engaged at my birthday party."
“.......”
The air was silent for a few seconds before the guests realized what was happening and started applauding.
