THE MALE LEAD SUDDENLY BECAME MY LAPDOG AFTER I ANNULLED OUR ENGAGEMENT - Chapter 265 - 265 Paled In Comparison

265 Paled In Comparison

He Chen’s gloomy eyes did not waver. “Tell her to go over by herself after she’s done packing.”

The butler also knew that this would definitely be the case. He sighed and slowly pushed the wheelchair to the venue of the party.

In the corner, Xia Yan ignored Jing Yan’s cold expression and sat beside He Miao to eat dessert with her.

Seeing that Xia Yan had been accompanying her, He Miao could not help but ask, “Don’t you need to go and greet the He family head?”

She was just a dabbler who had yet to officially set up a company, but Xia Yan was the future successor of the Xia family. How could she just stay in a corner with her and not meet the host of the gala?

Xia Yan squinted and looked in the direction of the crowd. Her gaze landed on the fat and greasy men at the periphery, and she said with disgust in her eyes, “There’s no hurry. I’ll go over after these people have dispersed.”

He Chen was now surrounded by people who were in a hurry to curry favor with him. Xia Yan would only embarrass the Xia family and appear to be degrading herself if she went over now.

He Miao also felt that it was very inconvenient to go to the crowded place now. Xia Yan was wearing a short black dress today and she looked like a beautiful black swan when she smiled. There was really no need for her to compete with those people for He Chen’s favor.

He Miao scanned her surroundings and nudged Xia Yan with her arm curiously. “Why isn’t Aunty Lu here?”

Logically speaking, Xia Yan’s mother, Lu Shuang, should not be absent from such an important event.

Xia Yan knew that He Miao actually did not know much about the current situation in the business world. She smiled and explained, “The He Family used to be very powerful, but that is a thing of the past. Now, the Jing family is the leader of the business world.

Then, she raised an eyebrow at the unmoved man in front of her and continued to explain to the confused He Miao, “The Xia family is at the top of the business world, but Uncle He’s bringing his entire family out after returning to the country. It’s a little too aggressive, so he only sent me here to represent the Xia family.”

He Miao understood what she meant. She subconsciously looked around, and only then did she realize that there were actually quite a few people who were approaching Jing Yan, intentionally or otherwise. They looked like they wanted to chat with him but did not dare to disturb him.

Of course, at the same time, many people also noticed He Miao, who was sitting beside Jing Yan.

There was a young lady from the He family who wanted to set up a company and won against many seniors in an perfume-making competition. This was no secret in the business world, which paid close attention to all parties. Those who wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with Jing Yan all had an “I knew it” expression on their faces when they recognized He Miao. It seemed that the He family and the Jing family would eventually have to be connected by marriage.

At the thought of this, everyone could not help but look at He Feng, who was standing alone in the corner with a gloomy face.

Although the incident from back then was not known to everyone, there were still quite a number of people who had heard about it. They really did not expect He Feng to be among the invited guests. Could it be that He Chen’s personality had changed and he had completely let go of his hatred for stealing his wife?

If that was really the case, He Chen would probably have to bury the hatchet with He Feng when he returned. With He Miao, the daughter of the He family who was about to marry into the Jing family, the He family’s future would be bright.

The envious gazes that were directed at He Feng were more or less mixed with some jealousy.

They had no idea how much effort He Feng had put in to attend this party. He was still a little afraid to see the man who had left the country in anger and given up everything return.

Seeing that he had achieved his goal and he had already shown up at the party, he planned to take the opportunity to escape. Who knew that He Wei, who was beside him, was still staring at He Miao, not letting go. Even when he called her, she turned a deaf ear.

The girl sitting next to Jing Yan had a bright smile on her face. She was so beautiful that she easily became the focus of the crowd.

However, looking at herself, He Wei sneered in her heart. Ever since she could not use the koi system, her appearance and figure had been deteriorating. Her originally beautiful face had also lost its color.

If she were to put her current face online and claim that she was He Wei, the rising star who used to be extremely popular, no one would believe her.

In order to achieve He Feng’s goal, she had sold her body time and time again because she had no one else to rely on other than He Feng.

If even He Feng was going to give up on her, then she would really have nothing left.

She was cursing He Miao in her heart when her arm was suddenly pulled by someone. He Wei turned back impatiently and saw that the man who had acted like a beast to her last night was staring at her with a faint smile.

“What’s wrong, Miss He? Have you forgotten me so quickly?” The man attended the party today precisely because he wanted to see He Wei. He did not know what kind of magic illness he had. Ever since He Wei left in the morning, he could not forget this young lady.

He, Ren Zhong, had always prided himself on being a playboy and would not be distracted by the slightest bit of flowers. However, he had fallen for this girl who was not the most outstanding in appearance.
