Chapter 612: Chapter 612: Make Up and Debut_1 Chapter 612: Chapter 612: Make Up and Debut_1 “Who told you that?” Huo Kewei looked strangely at her.
“Everyone’s been saying it behind the scenes.”
“Well, treat it as the truth then!”
His uncle had gone back to fetch his aunt, and he was really looking forward to her arrival. But at this point, his uncle should be back, why hadn’t he arrived yet? No good! He needed to tell his uncle that since Lu Dongxin was here, a few words would not be enough to send her off.
The He Family’s Villa was buzzing with life. The villa’s lights and the colourful lanterns in the courtyard were reflecting each other, making all the guests couldn’t help but admire He Rongxi’s lavishness. Yet, it was understandable how happy he was. His daughter, who was a complete good-for-nothing, had actually managed to get admitted to a prestigious university. It was indeed something worth celebrating.
Huo Beijiang’s car parked in the parking lot outside. As soon as he got out of the car, He Rongxi, together with He Shasha, came forward to greet him. Even without socialising with Chen Cuihua, the wife of the richest man, he went straight to Nan Fei.
“Hello, Student Nan Fei, Shasha told me everything. Thank you for looking after her.” He always knew how important friends were in achieving success. Unfortunately, he had been too focused on Jing Tong and never cared about Shasha before.
Now that he wants to care, Shasha is no longer close to him. Nevertheless, he was grateful to Jiang Nanfei for guiding Shasha and preventing her from going astray.
“Shasha is my friend, you’re being too polite!” Nan Fei said politely.
“It’s nothing, it’s not like that.” Ever the good conversationalist, He Rongxi greeted everyone while talking to Nan Fei, bowing to Chen Cuihua, and nodding his head politely with a smile towards everyone else.
“Let me introduce everyone.” He Shasha took the initiative and said, “This is my father He Rongxi, this is Nan Fei’s younger brother, and her younger sister.”
“Hello!” Zhuanzhuan greeted politely.
Jiang Yang shrugged indifferently, showing He Rongxi the back of his head in disdain.
“Please don’t mind him; my brother is a bit introverted.”
“No worries, I completely understand.”
While everyone was chatting away, He Jinlan was standing under a tree at a distance, half of her body hidden in the shadows. She watched the merry crowd with hatred, and her eyes were filled with total loathing. When her gaze landed on Huo Beijiang, who was protecting Nan Fei, she froze in place.
Her tightly clenched fists suddenly loosened, and she quickly balled them into fists again, punching the tree trunk.
He was her brother, the man she thought about day in, day out. He was supposed to be hers, but now he was stolen by Jiang Nanfei. If it weren’t for Jiang Nanfei, she wouldn’t have sunk this low. If it wasn’t for Jiang Nanfei, her brother would surely be by her side, flattering her, pampering her, and treating her well!
He Jinlan looked at Nan Fei and Huo Beijiang, her expression distorted in madness.
She would make Jiang Nanfei pay; she would make her brother realize how good she was!
Although Huo Beijiang usually spoke a lot when he was with Nan Fei, in such an occasion, he didn’t bother to utter a single word. He stood silently at Nan Fei’s side, holding his little cousin’s hand to prevent him from getting lost.
His piercing, hawk-like gaze had captured every detail around him. Especially He Jinlan standing in the shadows, thinking that no one would notice her or know what she looked like.
While ordinary people might not, highly trained, danger-sensitive special forces like him would. Even at such a distance, he could see the twisted look on He Jinlan’s face.
She just never learns.
Sparing her once didn’t seem enough, she’s only intensified her antics!
Huo Beijiang discretely signaled to Ning Di who, like a ghost, made his appearance behind him. The two exchanged a few whispered words, and Ning Di turned and vanished into the crowd in less than a second.
Zhuanzhuan noticed this, but when she tried to observe more carefully, she couldn’t find Ning Di anywhere.
She muttered to herself, faintly sensing something exciting in the tense atmosphere.
