The debutantes all instinctively turned their heads in unison, thinking the man was calling them.
However, the young man shyly walked straight towards the modestly dressed and lightly made-up Miss Zhou.
He handed over his business card, "Hello, it’s nice to meet you. In a few days, my family is hosting an opening reception, and I hope you can grace us with your presence. Would that be possible?"
Miss Zhou was taken aback, and before she could figure out what was going on, the man was called back to the reception by a group of wealthy heirs.
Miss Zhou looked at the mixed Chinese and French name on the card, thought for a long time, and couldn’t recall such a person in her circle.
Xing Yue glanced at it and laughed, "Oh, isn’t this the only son of the Qiu Family? He has been studying abroad. It seems he’s back to inherit his father’s auction business, right? Their family has many auction houses, the Emperor Auction specializes in antiques and treasures, and the new one apparently obtained special permission from the President Residence for auctioning land and real estate. He’s quite the eligible bachelor!"
A debutante nearby interjected, "And it’s rare to see someone so genuinely shy. Looks like he’s been only focusing on his studies abroad and hasn’t dated any women, haha!"
"Xiao Zhou, quickly go for it! Mr. Qiu has already given enough of a strong hint!"
"Miss Zhou, you must dress beautifully for his opening reception. Maybe you can find a boyfriend and assess the in-laws at the same time, haha!"
Miss Zhou blushed with the teasing from everyone, stroking the business card, feeling a sense of indescribable emotion in her heart—
She rarely goes out; she only ventured out today for Xing Yue. If it were according to her usual character, a boy handing her a card so abruptly would make her think he’s unreliable and she’d ignore him.
But recalling it now, that boy was indeed quite handsome, and his blushing face had a rare youthful charm, completely different from the greasy wealthy heirs she knew.
She also studied abroad before, and it was in a niche country, which is why she missed the chance to meet domestic boys. It’s quite a coincidence that Mr. Qiu had a similar experience to her.
Suddenly, she remembered what Zuzi said, "Your red thread is in motion, you should get out more. Maybe you’ll meet your true destiny!"
This boy with whom she shares a connection, could he be...?
Miss Zhou’s heart was pounding.
Miss Huangfu received a call and couldn’t help but raise her voice with excitement, "Mom, Dad, you really agreed to let me continue my sponsorship? Wuwu, I’m so glad you finally understand me..."
Everyone knew Miss Huangfu had been persistent in doing good deeds for ten years, sponsoring over a hundred out-of-school children. Unfortunately, her family strongly opposed it, and her boyfriend was even breaking up with her.
What was happening now?
Miss Huangfu put down the phone, her eyes gleaming with tears, "My dad was recently found to have a suspected lung tumor. He was afraid that if it turned out to be lung cancer and he didn’t have much time left, he wouldn’t be able to take care of us. That’s why he opposed my extravagant spending. But just now, his biopsy results came, and the tumor is benign, removable by surgery. He believes it’s the virtue I’ve accumulated over the years of doing good deeds, and not only did he relent in letting me continue what I want to do, but he also said he wants to join me in doing charity... I’m really so happy!"
Everyone was deeply moved upon hearing this. The source of this content ɪs 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
Someone asked, "What about your boyfriend, does he understand? What will you do if he continues to break up?"
