sing, "How was it"How are things going"Don't be coy, tell me what your first impression of Fu Jing was like""He's very handsome, upright and honest. It's no wonder he was chosen as a national team tal...Actually, her intake of alcohol is manageable, but recently she's been unlucky and things have been happening one after another. It's best if she could drink less, even lower-proof ones would be good.

Ji Qing, holding onto Fu Yanlu's arm, gave a polite nod to the people present. Fu Yanlu was hers after all.

All present were shrewd individuals, being personally brought by CEO Ji. Everyone had to give face, and someone took the initiative to approach Fu Yan and exchange business cards.

Fu Yan did not overstep her boundaries; being the junior, she respectfully offered a toast to each person present.

Shortly after, she saw General Lei talking to someone. Just as she was about to tell Ji Qing, there was a commotion from the door.

This was a banquet hosted by the Qi family head, and everyone arrived either early or right on time. No one dared to be late.

The dinner party had already been going on for half an hour, and the late arrival's identity attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone turned their eyes to the direction of the door. The people who were chatting and laughing a moment ago suddenly fell silent.

As the waiter slowly opened the door, the man strode into the ballroom with an air of composure.

The black suit was somber and silent, highlighting the innate nobility of the man. The light from the banquet hall illuminated his figure, and on his left thumb, a jade ring symbolizing his status glinted with a lustrous sheen.

As his gaze swept over them, the onlookers all seemed to have a sudden realization, their minds filled with only two thoughts.

It turned out to be Huo Mingzheng.

It can only be the head of the Nancheng First Family, Huo Mingzheng.

Shen Wei walked arm in arm with Huo Mingzheng, her gaze sweeping over Fu Yan in the crowd, a flash of disgust and jealousy in her eyes.

She was so dazzling that everyone in the banquet hall became a backdrop for her. She was the center of attention just by standing there; she didn't need to seek it out.

Huo Mingzheng walked to Ji Qing's face, his eyes skimming over Fu Yan, his tone flat with a hint of aloofness: "Sorry, President Ji, I'm late."

"It's already a great honor for me that Mr. Huo is willing to give me face," Qi Qing smiled and extended her hand.

Ho Mingzheng politely touched her fingertip before withdrawing his hand.

Ji Qing looked at him and smiled faintly. "This is..."

"She is my fiancée, Shen Wei."

Fu Yan's heartbeat skipped a beat, and even her exquisite makeup couldn't hide the paleness that flashed across her face for a moment. She said to Ji Qing that she had something to do and left.

He turned and took the wine from the waiter's hand. A voice, laced with sarcasm, came from beside him: "Isn't this dress supposed to be ill-fitting"

Fu Yan stood with a glass of wine, ignoring Shen Wei, her gaze following Director Lei.

"Don't you think anything happened just because you didn't speak"

Fu Yan smiled and glanced at her, "Then what do you want to hear from me The details of that day"

Shen Wei crossed her arms, a look of disgust momentarily flashing across her delicately made-up face, as if she had just swallowed a fly.

He gritted his teeth and snarled at her, "Have you no shame!"

"If you don't want to hear it, just stay away from me." Fu Yan shook her off. "You have time to attack me, but you might as well spend that time figuring out how to keep your fiancé's heart."

Before she had taken a few steps, someone patted her shoulder. She thought it was Shen Wei again, but when she turned around, it was Fu Jing.

Unlike his usual athletic style, Fu Jing wore a dark gray suit and had his hair styled, making him appear even more handsome and dashing.

She gave an unexpected smile: "How did you get here"

Fu Jing glanced at the socialite chatting with someone in the distance, "She came with my mother. Her blood pressure is a bit high, so I'm keeping an eye on her to make sure she drinks less."

Fu Yan laughed and covered her mouth, "Oh, thank you for speaking up for me in front of President Fu."

"You already apologized a few days ago, why are you here again" Fu Jing said jokingly.

A strand of hair stuck to Fu Yan's cheek. She touched it but couldn't quite catch it. Fu Jing watched her lower her head, looking docile and innocent. He couldn't help but lean closer, twirling that strand of hair between his fingers and gently parting it.

Not far away, Shen Wei stood beside Huo Mingzheng, her tone filled with envy: "A-Zheng, look at how well-matched they are."

"Is that so" The man chuckled, draining his glass of red wine in one gulp. He set the empty glass down with a clatter on the table.ouldn't even give her a fair chance.She picked up the bag that had fallen beside Huo Mingzheng. The zipper wasn't pulled all the way, and something fell out from inside, landing right on Huo Mingzheng...
