Xu Guangyao cautioned her with a sentence, “Keep your distance from me, and don’t let anyone think we’re too familiar. I’ll go down and check out the situation first; you come out a bit later.”
Shen Shiyun nodded.
She certainly wouldn’t give anything away.
Xu Guangyao quickly descended the spiral staircase and heard many people discussing.
“Huo Xingzhou has arrived.”
“Times have changed, do you remember what he did at the Yunding Hotel last time? Back then, we all thought he was pleading for Old Sir Huo to show mercy, but who knew he was actually the president of the Tianyuan Group. Today, his presence is even more imposing than before.”
“His wife is not bad either! Once a National Doctor’s apprentice, she’s even more elegant than before.”
Xu Guangyao reached the front row, where Liu Huimin whispered a complaint, “Such a grand entrance has even stolen Xingluo’s thunder! Look, my mom and my brother even went up to greet them, what’s the meaning of this!”
“Don’t be angry, it’s all for the sake of the Huo Family’s face,” Xu Guangyao replied, feeling uncomfortable inside but still uttering words of comfort.
At the entrance to the grand banquet hall, under the gilded and luxurious dome.
A striking young couple walked in together.
The man was dressed in a suit with a deep, hidden blue tone, the fabric stiff, and the design simple.
His facial features were angular and indifferent, and he had an excellent figure. Merely standing there, he exuded an aura of nobility and detachment.
It was only when he turned his head to speak with his companion that the icy coldness in his eyes would thaw.
The woman beside him wore a light-blue cheongsam. The material was soft and smooth. The embroidery was of profound skill, with blooms of light blue unfolding on the pale white cheongsam.
She had a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes and delicate features.
Used to seeing her in plain attire, one could only marvel at how stunning she looked in a cheongsam!
When she pursed her lips in a smile, she seemed touched by some of her husband’s imposing air, making her not to be taken lightly.
“Mr. Huo! Young Madam Huo!” some wealthy businessmen walked up to greet them.
In Haicheng now, everyone knew of Huo Er, unaware of Huo Beiting, the eldest of the Huo Family.
“Doctor Xiaoqiao.”
Old Mrs. Liu approached with her walking stick, looking well as she said, “Welcome to the banquet.”
The more she saw Qiao Xi, the more she liked her.
Qiao Xi said politely, “You seem to be in quite good health.”
Old Mrs. Liu held her hand, “I’ve heard about the incident before. On behalf of both families, I would like to apologize, and you can come to us with any difficulties in the future. Doctor Xiaoqiao, I will always appreciate everything you have done for the Liu Family.”
Her words made Liu Huimin and Xu Guangyao feel very awkward.
“What I did, it was all part of my professional duty,” Qiao Xi withdrew her hand, harboring no good feelings for the Xu Family and holding some resentment towards the Liu Family.
If it wasn’t for the Liu Family’s power and influence, would the Xu Family have been so audacious?
“Xiaoqiao…” Old Mrs. Liu sensed her detachment and felt a little disappointed.
Xu Guangyao stepped forward to smooth things over, “Let’s not stand here any longer, please come inside. Our birthday banquet is about to start soon, Xingzhou, you really did come. Welcome, welcome.”
His skin was thicker than that of a pig’s.
Smiling as if nothing had ever happened.
“Let’s go.”
Huo Xingzhou took Qiao Xi’s hand and moved further inside, without exchanging even the slightest pleasantry with Xu Guangyao. They walked hand in hand to a sofa by the floor-to-ceiling window, where a server quickly brought over wine, refreshments, and pastries.
“Please enjoy, and if you have any requests, do let our kitchen know,” the server said before leaving.
Qiao Xi laughed softly, feeling the occasional glances from around.
Old Chen stood like a post not far away, preventing the guests from coming forward to disturb them.
“Mr. Huo, you said in the car that today you came to enjoy the spectacle. What spectacle exactly are we talking about?” Qiao Xi asked curiously.
Huo Xingzhou lifted his chin slightly, gesturing for her to look at the corner.
Qiao Xi turned her head to look towards the corner near the spiral staircase, on the sofa sat a familiar face.
It was Xu Guangyao’s mistress!
She even dared to come.
“`
Is tonight’s drama about dealing with a mistress?
Huo Xingzhou’s eyelashes lowered slightly. Tonight, there might be quite a spectacle. The men he sent out reported that Xu Yunye was up to something, and he’s yet to show up.
People from the Xu Family and the Liu Family were also searching for Xu Yunye.
“Haven’t found him yet? Did you call him? Where did that rascal run off to!”
“It’s almost eight o’clock, the banquet is about to start!”
Xu Xiuyuan came back from his search and said, “Yunye is at the hospital, he told us not to wait for him. He said he wanted to spend his birthday with his second uncle and will come over later.”
“This child…” Liu Zongquan sighed with emotion, “is thoughtful.”
Old Mrs. Liu said, “It would be great if Zong Yun could come to the birthday party. Unfortunately, the doctor said he can’t be moved around at will…”
She still felt distressed thinking about her younger son.
“Mom, today is a good day! Look!”
Eight o’clock sharp!

The lights in the banquet hall dimmed, and only the dome sparkled with twinkling stars.
“It’s a starry sky ceiling!”
The spacious banquet hall was transformed into a lifelike canopy of stars that twinkled above.
A shooting star streaked across the sky.
A spotlight fell on the white European-style spiral staircase.
Xu Xingluo’s makeup was exquisite, adorned with a luxurious princess crown, wearing a fluffy and noble princess dress. Layers of gossamer ruffles were meticulously arranged, highlighting her fair and straight legs.
She stepped in silver high heels, with Tian Tian holding up the hem of her dress behind her.
Xu Xingluo revealed a sweet smile, gracefully descending the stairs.
Her grand presence marked her as the princess of the evening.
“So beautiful!”
“Haicheng’s number one socialite, truly lives up to the name.”
“Honestly, I think she’s not as good-looking as Young Madam Huo.”
“Qiao Xi may be capable, but in our circle, no ability can outshine a noble lineage.”
“Bullshit,” Sun Weimeng rolled his eyes dismissively on the side, “Lasting glory comes from one’s own merit, not from the shade provided by ancestors. How far can that get you?”
Qiao Xi was way more capable than Xu Xingluo!
The people who were just discussing this saw that it was Sun Weimeng who erupted, and they could only walk away grudgingly.
Everyone knew better than to reason with a mad dog like Sun Weimeng—it was only embarrassing for themselves.
“Xingluo.”
After Xu Xingluo finished descending the last stretch of staircase, Xiang Huai affectionately took her hand, “You’re so beautiful!”
He gazed at her fervently as they walked into the venue, hand in hand.
Xu Xingluo’s lips curved slightly, her eyes roving among the guests. When she saw Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi sitting in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, being sweet together and feeding each other, a surge of resentment welled up within her.
Xu Guangyao spoke into the microphone atop the platform, “Thank you, old friends, for attending my family’s birthday party. It’s the first time my child is hosting such a lively birthday event. Today, I also have some good news to announce: my daughter Xingluo and the Xu Family’s younger son, Xiang Huai, are getting engaged!”
“Congratulations, Mr. Xu!”
“Congratulations, Miss Xu.”
“Xiang Huai finally got the girl of his dreams!”
Xu Xingluo and Xiang Huai, standing together, looked quite the matched pair.
Taking the microphone, she spoke sweetly, “Thank you to all the elder relatives and friends for attending my birthday party. This year, my second uncle also woke up, which is a big joyous event for our family.
On this occasion, I would like to thank someone.”
She signaled to the four waiters to roll out the seven-tier cake. Her delicate peach blossom eyes held a hint of scheming as they swept over Qiao Xi.
