Chapter 299 - Andrew

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Perhaps this Miss Hill who suddenly appeared is really not simple. Just now, Mr. Hill proudly introduced her daughter and even said that Miss Hill would become the world’s greatest scientist within the next ten years. If there’s no evidence, why would Mr. Hill say such a thing?

A group of foreigners with high noses and deep eyes looked at each other. Although this guess was a little ridiculous, they were already starting to believe it in their hearts.

Among the excited guests, a young man with long blond hair and gray eyes remained silent all this while.

The black-haired, green-eyed man beside him nudged him with his arm and said in a gossipy tone, “Andrew, you’ve been staring at Miss Hill all this while. Could it be that you have some thoughts about her?”

Andrew Cameron came back to his senses at his friend’s touch and finally looked away from the girl in the middle of the crowd who was dancing with the handsome guy.

Facing his friend’s teasing gaze, Andrew remained composed. He took a sip of champagne and said, “I just feel that Miss Hill’s appearance is a little familiar. We might have met before.”

His friend’s name was Mike Smith. He looked at Andrew in surprise when he heard this. “Oh my god, Andrew, have you finally opened up? It’s hard to believe that you’re starting to be interested in girls.”

Andrew didn’t respond to Mike’s teasing. Instead, he turned his gaze back to Huo Tian. The girl on the dance floor happened to perform a spin and then returned to her dance partner’s arms…

The two of them cooperated well and their gazes unconsciously locked. Then, the outstanding-looking young couple looked at each other and smiled naturally.

The atmosphere between them wasn’t strong and sweet, and there was even a hint of shyness. However, no one doubted their love for each other.

Andrew looked away and took another sip of champagne, then said to Mike indifferently, “I just have a slight feeling of déjà vu. I’m not interested in Miss Hill.”

Mike let out an exaggerated sigh of disappointment. “Oh my god, I thought you agreed to attend the Hill Family’s banquet to fulfill the marriage agreement between your two families that was established a hundred years ago. Your focused gaze when you were looking at Miss HIll just now, made me think that you finally have worldly desires. Now, it seems like you’re still the same Andrew who is devoted to studying academics.”

Andrew’s expression didn’t change much. He lowered his eyes slightly to hide his gradually rising annoyance.

Their conversation was just a small interlude in the corner of the banquet. No one gave them any unnecessary glances.

Most of everyone’s gazes were focused on the banquet hall. The opening dance had ended, but Huo Tian and Si Huan did not let go of each other’s hands. The two of them retreated to Xi Cheng’s side. After Xi Cheng announced that the banquet had officially started, the scene immediately became lively.

As the host, there were many small talks.

Fortunately, with Xi Cheng’s status, no one could force him. Most of the guests who came to greet him would leave tactfully after saying a few words.

Of course, some people wanted to take the opportunity to build a relationship with the Hill Family’s head. They wanted to be more shameless and chat a little more, but all they received was usually Xi Cheng’s cold expression and the staff’s persuasion to leave.

The Xu Family, who had a hotel chain in China, had their business taken care of by the Hill Family’s head previously because their daughter was in the same class as Huo Tian.

Almost all the presidential suites in their hotel in S City had been reserved by the Hill Family’s head during this period of time to welcome guests from both domestically and abroad.

Due to this, the Xu Family was especially respected among the guests they were familiar with.

Mr. Xu was about to go talk to the Hill Family’s head when his gaze turned and he realized that the Huo Family’s father and son were a few steps away from him..
