She walked inside without intending to acknowledge the staff.
"This person intruded into the banquet, just kick her out!"
Following the staff’s command, bodyguards surrounded her, trying to evict Shu Wan.
Shu Wan’s wrist slightly moved, about to retaliate, but someone acted faster than she did.
With a thud, a bodyguard behind Shu Wan fell to the ground.
Shu Wan turned around and saw Fu Yang standing not far away.
He wore a black shirt, and the diamond earring by his right ear shone brightly under the light.
Even without the scene of kicking the bodyguard, Fu Yang’s looks and presence alone could draw everyone’s attention.
Although Fu Yang seldom mingled in the Imperial City circles and most people didn’t know him well, everyone could still perceive a distinctive aura about him.
This lazy and casual character could only be nurtured by a family with absolute strength, and people began to discuss whose Young Master he was.
"Who are you? We’re calling the police!"
"Go ahead," Fu Yang was fearless, he turned his head to look at the staff, "We have an invitation. Try not letting us in and see if you get fired or if we get arrested."
Fu Yang was usually arrogant, with that carefree air of a Young Master, easily intimidating the staff.
Shu Wan’s invitation was actually in order, and the staffer could indeed lose his job if the matter escalated.
Thinking of this, the staff member backed down, "Fine, go in."
"You say let us in as if we are just anybody?" Fu Yang took a few steps towards the staff member, "Apologize to us."
"You..." The staff member’s face looked unpleasant, but under Fu Yang’s intense gaze, he finally said, "Sorry."
"Heh, looking down on us," Fu Yang glanced at the staff member and then strode towards the banquet hall.
Seeing this, Shu Wan followed him.
Initially, people simply noticed Shu Wan’s extraordinary beauty, but after Fu Yang appeared, they became more curious about her identity.
"Who is she? This Young Master’s aura is quite unique, surely not from an ordinary family."
"It is an ordinary family; you probably don’t follow entertainment news. That woman is called Shu Wan, an entertainment star, and this young man is her stepson."
"What? An entertainment star is this arrogant? I thought she was something special."
People started discussing as Shu Wan and Fu Yang entered the hall.
"Why are you here?" Shu Wan turned her head and looked at Fu Yang.
Shu Wan’s lips slightly curled upwards, "Well, that’s quite a coincidence."
They had delayed outside for a while, and the charity auction inside had already started.
Shu Wan had wanted to find a corner seat, but Fu Yang directly swaggered to the front row.
After he sat down, he crossed his legs and turned his head to wave Shu Wan over, "Come sit."
Well, now the two of them had become the center of attention.
At such an auction, the seats in the center of the first row were reserved for VIPs.
Most other seats were already taken, except for three seats in the middle of the first row that no one dared to occupy.
Thus, seeing Fu Yang and Shu Wan taking two spots there, everyone was astonished, speculating over their identities.
Fu Yang wasn’t afraid, and naturally, Shu Wan wasn’t either. She conveniently sat next to him, right in the best viewing spot in the hall.
Today’s charity dinner was not a low-profile event, and the items auctioned were pretty interesting as well.
There were modern masterpieces of art and antiques from ancient times.
Shu Wan was quite interested, but Fu Yang nearly fell asleep, leaning all the way back in his seat, and if not for occasionally propping himself up, he would have slid to the floor.
After the first half of the auction, there was a fifteen-minute intermission.
Shu Wan picked up her phone, about to scroll through some news, when she heard someone call her name, "Shu Wan?! What are you doing here?"
Shu Wan turned around; it was a young woman she didn’t recognize.
Shu Wan tried to remember from the original host’s memories but couldn’t recall who this person was, "Who are you?"
"Don’t you remember? I’m Anna." The woman seemed to have a good relationship with Shu Wan and approached to link arms with her, but Shu Wan stopped her.
