Just two days after receiving the news of Yanling and He Wan's divorce, Jiang Xin saw He Wan at a charity auction.
She was holding the arm of a middle-aged man when she saw Ye Beichen and Jiang Xin, and her expression became slightly unnatural. She quickly looked away.
The brother and sister never expected to run into He Wan here. Ye Beichen's gaze swept past her as he searched for the girl he had met that night.
Jiang Xin stared at her with a playful expression. So she had already found someone else. No wonder she divorced Yan Ling.
Seeing her ambiguous smile, He Wan gritted her teeth and muttered to herself, "You're just luckier than me. If you hadn't been adopted by the Ye family, you might not be doing as well as I am!"
Seeing that her expression kept changing and that she was obviously feeling guilty, Jiang Xin immediately lost interest, stopped paying attention to her, and walked towards her brother.
Standing next to Ye Beichen, just after seeing off someone who came to say hello, Jiang Xin asked, "Brother, has the person you wanted to see arrived?"
"She probably didn't come. I looked around several times but couldn't find her. It's okay, take pictures of whatever you like, I'll pay for tonight."
Ye Beichen spoke casually, but his eyes revealed a hint of disappointment. The person he wanted to see didn't come, but he did see someone he didn't expect.
Those attending the auction tonight are all prominent figures in Beijing. The auction proceeded smoothly, and everyone present was very supportive, generously donating and enthusiastically bidding.
Jiang Xin also bid on two exhibits, but her brother's sweetheart still did not appear until the end of the auction.
The brother and sister followed the crowd toward the gate when they suddenly heard a commotion coming from there.
Jiang Xin listened intently for a while, and felt that the male voice sounded somewhat familiar. "Let me go! He Wan, you are such a fickle woman! You abandoned your husband and children for money, you have no shame!"
The name He Wan made Ye Beichen and Jiang Xin exchange bewildered glances. Jiang Xin knew who was causing trouble outside: Yan Ling!
Unexpectedly, he came here to cause trouble. This is undoubtedly a slap in the face for the hosts of this banquet. As far as she knows, the hosts have a bad temper. Yanling and He Wan are going to be in big trouble this time.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xin pulled her brother toward a corner. She didn't want to be implicated by Yan Ling; it would be too unfair if the host family took their anger out on her.
Ye Beichen was suddenly pulled by his younger sister and found that she was leading him to a corner. He looked at her, puzzled.
Jiang Xin said in a low voice, "I know Yan Ling. If he sees us, he will definitely drag us into it, so it's best not to show our faces now."
After a few minutes, the noise outside subsided. Jiang Xin waited patiently for a while longer before signaling to her brother that they could leave.
As the two walked out, Jiang Xin spotted Zhang Dan hiding in the shadows; she hadn't seen him in a long time.
Zhang Dan's appearance hasn't changed much since high school; she still looks sweet and lovely. However, Jiang Xin could see a gloating look in her eyes.
It seems that Zhang Dan is involved in today's events.
But none of this concerned her. When she reached the door, she indeed did not see Yan Ling. She looked around but did not see He Wan either.
As the noise outside subsided, Zhang Dan's face returned to its usual expression.
She only asked someone to pass on a message to Yanling, but she didn't expect that guy to actually come.
They actually dared to make a scene at the door, causing the Fu family to lose face. The Fu family members are not as easy to talk to as I am.
His mother probably can't save him this time.
