Feng Yu frowned slightly. She hated tedious banquets the most. Just as she was about to decline, she heard Old Hades say something that brooked no refusal.
"You must come tonight. This is a very important banquet."
After hanging up the phone, Feng Yu felt utterly exhausted.
Both of them showed expressions of dissatisfaction, clearly reluctant.
"Then, I'll go back first..." they said in unison.
"Okay." Once again, they spoke in unison.
Feng Yu and Qin Feng suddenly burst out laughing and then said goodbye.
When Feng Yu returned to the Wu family's residence, Wu Yue and Wu Jin had already changed their clothes.
"Sister Xiaoyu, you're finally back. Come on, I've prepared your clothes." Wu Yue urged Feng Yu and directly handed her the evening dress.
After Feng Yu put on the dress, Wu Jin and Wu Yue couldn't help gasping. Feng Yu would definitely be the most eye - catching person in the crowd!
After getting in the car, it drove towards the hotel. Feng Yu couldn't help but be curious about who had initiated this sudden banquet.
She only heard Wu Yue gossiping non - stop, "I heard that the prodigal son of the He family has returned, and the old master of the He family held this banquet to welcome him. Sister Xiaoyu, I also heard that the young master of the He family is extremely arrogant. He left home to make a name for himself when he was just a teenager and never came back. I'm afraid he was dragged back this time!"
Wu Yue was really into her story, though it was all just her speculation.
The car stopped. They had arrived at the hotel. Since hearing what Wu Yue said, Feng Yu had become quite interested.
After entering the venue, it was resplendent and dazzling.
Feng Yu saw An Qing at first sight. An Qing was wearing a long, glittering golden dress and stood out in the crowd. Almost everyone was crowding around her, trying to curry favor.
You know, besides being the daughter of the An family, An Qing was now also the woman of Mr. Qiu!
When Feng Yu saw An Qing, she lowered her eyes, her thoughts swirling. Wu Yue put her arm around Feng Yu.
"Sister Xiaoyu! Don't fixate on just one tree. Look, there are so many here. You can choose freely!"
Feng Yu was amused by Wu Yue's frivolous tone and shook her head helplessly.
Just then, An Qing was walking slowly towards Feng Yu with a glass of red wine in her hand. She smiled at Feng Yu.
"Miss Feng, it's been a long time. I didn't expect to see you again. You seem to be looking much better than before."
Wu Yue's face darkened. Wasn't this a veiled insult insinuating that Feng Yu had gained weight?
Feng Yu gave a soft laugh.
"Naturally. After all, with Brother Yi's care, Sister Xiaoyu is surely living a better life than you!" Wu Yue stood up for Feng Yu. After hearing this, An Qing's face turned ashen.
"Haha, Miss Wu is right. Mr. Qiu is really good to me. He spent a fortune to buy me this limited - edition dress."
Wu Yue gritted her teeth in anger, while Feng Yu remained calm and motioned for Wu Yue not to get angry.
Just then, the old master of the He family came out, smiling broadly.
"Thank you all for coming today. I'll foot the bill for all the expenses today. I hope you all have a great time. Now, I'd like to introduce to you all my grandson from the He family! He Feng!"
As soon as the old master of the He family finished speaking, applause erupted throughout the venue, but no one could see where He Feng was.
The old master's expression instantly turned ugly. He quickly looked around.
Just then, He Feng slowly walked down the stairs. Everyone craned their necks to catch a glimpse of the young master of the He family.
The moment He Feng appeared, Feng Yu was stunned, clearly in shock.
"Ah! It's him!" Wu Yue pointed at He Feng and exclaimed. Realizing something was wrong, she quickly covered her mouth and looked around. Her face immediately turned shy.
When He Feng saw Feng Yu, he also paused for a moment and almost stumbled.
Feng Yu naturally noticed this.
Wu Yue grabbed Feng Yu, looked at He Feng and then at Feng Yu, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Feng Yu looked at her and asked kindly.
"Him! Him! Wuwuwu!" In the end, Wu Yue cried with a mournful face, and then her face turned rosy.
Feng Yu found Wu Yue's ever - changing expressions quite amusing.
"Sister Xiaoyu! That night, it was him! He flirted with me!" Wu Yue gritted her teeth and whispered.
"Then why do you look so excited?"
This question made Wu Yue break down. She looked extremely shy.
At this moment, An Qing walked towards He Feng in front of everyone.
"I've long heard of the young master of the He family. I didn't expect to see you today. You really are an eye - opener." An Qing sized He Feng up with a smile.
He Feng frowned slightly. He disliked and was afraid of women who came on to him out of the blue. He immediately shifted his gaze and searched for Feng Yu's figure.
When he saw Feng Yu, he was startled. He was clearly surprised that she would be here.
Everyone was quite surprised to see An Qing rebuffed.
"No way. Doesn't this young master of the He family know whose woman Miss An Qing is? He just ignored her!"
"I've long heard that the young master of the He family is arrogant. Now it seems he's really overbearing."
"He's got personality!"
"Hey, look. Where is he going?"
Everyone's gazes followed He Feng again. They saw He Feng walk slowly to Feng Yu's side.
"Sister Xiaoyu." His gentle voice was like that of a little lamb. With his standard smile, almost no girl present could resist falling for him.
Feng Yu turned around and was slightly taken aback when she saw He Feng.
"Qin Feng? It really is you?"
He Feng's smile was incredibly warm. He nodded, "I didn't expect to meet Sister Xiaoyu here. I'm really surprised! Sister Xiaoyu, do you know what I found out after that last time!?"
He Feng was chatting enthusiastically with Feng Yu and hardly noticed the stunned expressions of others.
"The young master of the He family actually knows Feng Yu!?"
"Feng Yu? Do you mean Mr. Qiu's ex - girlfriend? I heard she's also getting close to the young master of the Yi family recently. It seems he's pursuing her!"
"No way. Is Miss Feng really that charming!?"
"Isn't it obvious now! Even the young master of the He family..."
After hearing the surrounding discussions, An Qing clenched her fists tightly. Her eyes looking at Feng Yu were extremely gloomy. She sneered and then drank alone in a fit of depression.
"Do you mean the person who submitted the materials betrayed you?"
Qin Feng nodded seriously and then looked at Feng Yu, "But don't worry. I've already solved this matter."
After hearing this, Feng Yu couldn't help but reach out and pat his shoulder playfully, "Well, Qin Feng, you really surprise me. You've been hiding so much from me."
Hearing Feng Yu's teasing, Qin Feng couldn't help smiling from ear to ear.
"Sister Xiaoyu, you're one to talk. Aren't you the same?"
