Chapter 112: Banquet
“Alright.” Yin Lingyan withdrew her gaze, looking at the ground with dissatisfaction, asking was the same as not asking.
She asked why it was in his hand. Did his friend give him the design draft unconditionally? But she didn’t dare to ask if any conditions were agreed upon.
Han Wuyu playfully tapped her nose, causing Yin Lingyan to feel a burst of displeasure.
The engagement is today. The warmth on Yin Lingyan’s face wouldn’t stop, and after hastily dressing up, it was finally night.
The starry night sky was too beautiful. Yin Lingyan and Han Wuyu also changed into evening gowns and attended the engagement banquet together.
Many people came to the banquet. But in a corner, there were two pairs of eyes. Their eyes flickered with unwillingness.
At the same time, in the middle of the banquet, a group of people caused a sensation, oh… no, it was one person, Mu Xingchen.
Mu Xingchen wore black sunglasses and black casual wear, as if treating this banquet as a casual gathering with friends. His hands were in his pockets, and a cold smile hung on his lips.
“It’s actually Mu Xingchen? Wasn’t it said that he never attends banquets or anything?”
“Yeah, why did he suddenly make such a high-profile appearance this time?”
“It’s rumored that he’s not the biological son of the Mu Family.” Some middle-aged women couldn’t help but gossip, and after this sentence fell.
Mu Xingchen’s gaze immediately swept over them. Mu Xingchen’s sunglasses hid his emotions, so the middle-aged women couldn’t see the tears in his eyes.
His eyes emitted a terrifying message, radiating a cold light. A coldness that was impossible to ignore.
After Yin Lingyan and Han Wuyu entered the banquet, the banquet had just begun.
Upon seeing Yin Lingyan’s figure, a flicker of an unknown emotion crossed Mu Xingchen’s eyes. He seemed to want to hide something and lowered his head.
His hair, dyed golden yellow, shone under the lights. This scene made Mu Xingchen appear like a warm man.
Mu Xingchen’s presence stirred up too many people, making it impossible for Yin Lingyan to ignore him.
“Long time no see.” When Han Wuyu brought Yin Lingyan to Mu Xingchen, Mu Xingchen said a ambiguous sentence.
It was unclear whether this sentence was addressed to Yin Lingyan or Han Wuyu.
However, his gaze was on Yin Lingyan, which made Yin Lingyan feel something was wrong. In her memory, she and Mu Xingchen seemed to have never had any interaction.
But Han Wuyu was also in the business world, and he had learned some pleasantries from Father Han.
“Long time no see.” Han Wuyu replied politely. Two ice-cold men collided, and with just four short words, the surrounding air became somewhat unusual.
After a while, Mu Xingchen curved a warm smile. He took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of captivating peach blossom eyes.
Upon seeing this, Yin Lingyan couldn’t help but be shocked. He was very handsome, enough to rival Han Wuyu.
However, the two of them were like this: one was ice-cold, and the other was… well, one could say he was devilishly charming, especially those peach blossom eyes, as if one could be drawn into them with just a slight carelessness.
“Congratulations.” Mu Xingchen made no other move, simply taking a glass of red wine from a waiter on his right and politely toasting Han Wuyu.
Since Mu Xingchen was a guest, and Han Wuyu didn’t want to spoil the fun, he gestured with his glass, saying “Thank you,” and then downed the red wine in his hand.
A smile flickered in Mu Xingchen’s eyes, and he also drank his red wine.
After that, they exchanged a few words and stopped the pleasantries. Yin Lingyan let out a sigh of relief; such occasions were too tiring.
