Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the day of the banquet, celebrities gathered and the media surrounded them. It was luxurious and grand.

When the young master of the Sikong family arrived at the venue, he attracted numerous cameras.

Under the spotlight, his expression was the same as before. That warm color spread all over his body, and the white suit he was wearing made him look even more otherworldly.

Ever since he came to China, the reporters had been trying to interview Sikong Jin, but they never had the chance.

After tonight’s event, there would be a Q&A session.

The reporters were all trying their best to dig up some exclusive news.

At this moment, four people walked in from the door.

The originally noisy banquet hall instantly quieted down.

Everyone looked at the man in the lead in shock.

Although Lu Mingxiu was the best actor, he rarely came out except for necessary interviews. Everyone thought that Lu Zhengqing would be at the gathering today.

After a few minutes of silence, the banquet hall began to whisper again, “The person from the Lu family is actually Lu Mingxiu?”

He was also wearing a white suit today. In contrast to Sikong Jin’s elegance, Lu Mingxiu had a hint of decisiveness and flirtatiousness, like poppies in full bloom in the middle of the night, captivating people.

Huo Jingyang ignored everyone’s gazes. The only thing he was curious about was why Mingxiu was wearing a white suit today. After seeing Sikong Jin, he seemed to understand a little.

“Tanjiu, why do I feel like Mingxiu is here to cause trouble?”

Feng Xuanmo’s face broke into a faint smile, “Jingyang, there’s no need to doubt it. That’s what Mingxiu is thinking.”

Huo Jingyang was speechless.

Su Qian stood in a corner. To be honest, she had never been interested in such events. If she hadn’t promised Sikong Jin, she would never have come.

She was still enjoying the wine at the banquet, but when the crowd quieted down, she subconsciously looked at the source of attraction.

From the moment he entered the banquet hall, Lu Mingxiu had not said a single word, but he still managed to attract everyone’s attention.

She looked at Lu Mingxiu, who was not far away, with a playful expression, but she suddenly realized that Lu Mingxiu was also looking at her, and there seemed to be a hint of a smile in his eyes.

She did not tell Lu Mingxiu that she was going to the party today, and she was standing in a dark corner at the moment.

How could Lu Mingxiu notice her existence with a single glance?

At this moment, a white figure walked toward Lu Mingxiu and called out to him affectionately, “Mingxiu…”

When he saw Qin Yunshuang suddenly appear in front of him, the smile in Lu Mingxiu’s eyes immediately disappeared without a trace.

Before he could say anything, the people around him were already excited.

“It’s the best actress, Qin Yushuang. ”

Qin Yunshuang had not participated in any interviews since she returned to the country. She did not expect to attend this banquet. Perhaps all the influential people in the capital had come today.

In the early years, they had heard rumors that the Lu family wanted the Qin family to form an alliance through marriage. However, it seemed that after Qin Yunshuang went abroad, the matter was left unsettled. Now, it seemed that these two people were about to rekindle their old feelings?

“Wow, they’re in the same frame. Quick, take a picture, take a picture.”

Not only did they want to grab the headlines of the business section, but they also wanted to grab the headlines of the entertainment section.

Seeing Qin Yunshuang slowly walk toward Lu Mingxiu, Su Qian put down her wine glass. Her playful expression turned a little cold.

The person Lu Mingxiu was looking at was not her, but Qin Yunshuang.

Suddenly, she felt a little disinterested and turned to leave.

Qin Yunshuang walked in front of Lu Mingxiu and did not hide the adoration in her eyes.

“What a coincidence, Mingxiu.”

Lu Mingxiu frowned slightly. He looked past Qin Yunshuang’s line of sight and realized that Su Qian had disappeared from behind her. He suddenly felt irritated and looked at her with a trace of coldness.

“It’s not just the Lu family and the Qin family who came to attend the dinner tonight. Let’s skip this coincidence.”

He then glanced at Feng Xuanmo and the others, “You mean it is a coincidence for you to meet them?”

Qin Yunshuang was speechless.

Who would want to meet them coincidentally?

Feng Xuanmo was trying his best to suppress his laughter. Before he was exposed, he quickly coughed, “Well, you guys continue. I still have something to do, so I’ll have to excuse myself.”

After he finished speaking, he immediately slipped away.

It was more interesting to hang out with Su Qian than to see Qin Yunshuang acting so affectionately in front of Mingxiu.

He could also have fun with Young Master Sikong.

Seeing that Feng Xuanmo was about to leave, Lu Mingxiu was about to go find Su Qian as well. However, Qin Yunshuang grabbed his arm.

“Wait!”

She had to make things clear today. She was afraid that if she dragged it on, she would never have the chance to say it again.

“Mingxiu, I know I still owe you an explanation. It was indeed my fault for leaving without a word three years ago, but can you give me another chance?”

Lu Mingxiu flung her hand away without any hesitation, “Since you’ve already left without saying goodbye, there’s nothing between us anymore. Besides, I already have someone I like.”

As soon as these words were said, the surrounding people all gasped.

The media was in an uproar.

They regretted not taking photos and recording. They could have even done a live broadcast.

#Best actress Qin publicly expresses love but is rejected.

#Best actor Lu admits in public that he admires someone.

They could even imagine that if these two topics were to be exposed, they would definitely become the hot search in minutes. It was even possible that they would explode in minutes.

“Do you guys know who it is?”

“Who knows? Why don’t you go up and ask?”

“Do you think I’m a fool? Step forward and touch this bad luck?”

Furthermore, even if they really knew the answer, without the Lu family’s permission, could they reveal it so easily?

Wouldn’t it be worse if they knew the answer but couldn’t reveal it?

Qin Yunshuang looked at Lu Mingxiu in disbelief. She could not believe that Lu Mingxiu would actually like someone else.

“Mingxiu, you’re lying, right?”

Out of all the young ladies from the influential families in the capital, she was the only one who could get within a meter of Lu Mingxiu. That was why she firmly believed that Lu Mingxiu loved her deeply. Even if she left without saying goodbye, he would still forgive her.

Now that Lu Mingxiu suddenly told her that he had someone he liked, she could not accept it at all.

“Mingxiu, you’re lying, right? You’re trying to anger me on purpose, aren’t you?”

Lu Mingxiu didn’t answer her, only leaving her with a heartless view of his back…

Huo Jingyang glanced at Qin Yunshuang, who seemed to be in a daze. He said faintly, “Yunshuang, since you left without saying goodbye, you should have thought of this possibility, right?”
