Chapter 296: The Banquet Begins

Huo You’s expression was very familiar to Mrs. Huo. She thought about it carefully and realized that this had always been her attitude in public. She was cold, noble, and distant. Although her expression was gentle, her attitude was with an air of superiority.

It turned out that Huo You had unconsciously learned 70% to 80% of her charm.

If Huo You were still the obedient girl from the past, Mrs. Huo might have felt relieved. However, looking at Huo You now, Mrs. Huo only felt a chill run down her spine.

It was because at this moment, Mrs. Huo truly felt the mercilessness of time. The young Huo You gradually grew up, but as her mother, she was no longer young. Then, how would Huo You treat her gradually aging mother the day she gained the rights to things that belong to her?

The inexplicable sense of crisis in her heart made Mrs. Huo’s emotions unstable. However, before she could carefully digest this emotion, the banquet had already started.

The conversations in the banquet hall gradually quietened down. Everyone’s gazes were looking in the same direction—at the staircase that led to the second floor of the manor’s hall. A group of people gradually walked down the stairs.

The ones at the front were a middle-aged man and woman pair.

The man was tall and handsome. Time had given him a mature and reserved charm. The only regretful thing was that he was holding a cane. The cane was not a unique accessory but a practical object that supported his movements. Everyone came back to their senses from his intimidating aura and realized that this middle-aged man’s legs were a little weak.

The man was holding a woman’s hand with his other hand. This woman was gentle and beautiful. Her face was fair and her skin was tight. She looked to be at most 27 or 28 years old, but her eyes were filled with a mature and tolerant disposition, making people understand that this woman was no longer young.

A successful man would usually have to be accompanied by a young girl who was ignorant of the world to showcase his success. However, the combination of this middle-aged man and woman was eye-catching.

No one would say that they were incompatible, and no one would guess their relationship wrongly. As the two of them looked at each other, the strong feelings between them allowed everyone to easily tell that they were a loving couple with a deep love for each other.

A cry of surprise suddenly rang out from the crowd. Someone then said something. The fluent foreign language was clearly not from a Chinese guest. Everyone could understand what the person was saying. “That’s the Hill Family’s head. Isn’t he crippled in both legs? He has actually recovered to this extent?”

With a first person commenting, people could no longer suppress their surprise and started discussing softly.

They were discussing how the woman was so compatible with Xi Cheng. Of course, they did not forget the two men and one lady who walked down behind Xi Cheng.

These two men were both Chinese. They were both handsome and tall. The older one inadvertently revealed a frivolous expression, making him look very dissolute.

The other younger man was wearing a fitting suit. The color of his pocket square and tie contrasted with the color of the girl’s gown walking between the two men. The young man and lady were a couple.

The two men with outstanding appearances and auras did not hide the demeanor of the girl in the middle. She was wearing a black gown and had very thick and beautiful makeup on. Her hair, which was styled, was dark on top and purple at the bottom. She did not have the demure image that people in high society usually had in their minds. Her leisurely disposition did not make her stand out in this grand banquet.

The group of five stopped in their tracks at a suitable moment. The man in front lowered his hands slightly, and the noisy banquet hall instantly quietened down.

The man didn’t deliberately raise his voice, but everyone heard him..
