From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables

Chapter 659: 342 Grand Show (Explosive Update Notice)_3

Bai Weining still disagreed: “Being alive, of course we should pursue passionate love. Even if it ends in regret, it’s still worth it in this life.”

Both Madam Gao shook their heads at the same time, only Madam Ye smiled.

The two madams looked at Madam Ye’s smile and felt uncomfortable in their hearts.

Both were in marriages for business alliances, but Madam Ye had love marriage. Ye Zheng worked hard to build their family business from scratch and always stood by Madam Ye.

But how many couples in the world are like that?

Even the couple who struggled together in the Zhu Group ended up with an affair, right?

Madam Ye said: “Do you remember what Master Ming Jing said? Marriage and fate are based on past life connections. In this life, we have thoughts, and in the next life, we have affinity. No matter what, it’s destiny. We should cherish itby ourselves.”

The two Madam Gao had nothing to say.

“What a lively gathering with all the madams here.” Madam Li entered with Li Qingyao.

——

The Zhu family.

Ming Jing took a cup and left.

She ran into Zhu Xiangxiang who had just returned.

Zhu Xiangxiang had dressed up carefully, looking radiant and proud.

As they met, she blocked Ming Jing’s way.

Raising her hand, she brushed the slightly curled locks beside her temple and twirled it around her finger.

“This dress of yours is pretty nice. Today’s banquet technically celebrates Grandma’s birthday, but in reality, it’s a stage for your fame and fortune — you urged mom to make this banquet big, just to show how great you are, right?”

Ming Jing smirked: “What do you really want to say?”

Zhu Xiangxiang said word by word: “I will let you know what it’s like to lift a rock only to drop it on your own foot.”

Ming Jing raised her eyebrows: “It seems I have saved you several times, does it feel right to return kindness with enmity?”

“I’m just upholding justice.” Zhu Xiangxiang said without blushing or panting.

“Well then, I’ll wait for the good news.” Ming Jing left with a faint smile.

Zhu Xiangxiang snorted, “What a thing.”

Li Juan approached with little steps: “Miss Xiangxiang, you’re back, when are we going to the hotel?”

Zhu Xiangxiang glanced at her: “What did Ming Jing come back for?”

“To get a cup for the old lady, what’s wrong, Miss Xiangxiang?”

Zhu Xiangxiang squinted at her: “You were almost frozen to death on the side of the road when I brought you back, which allowed you to live such a good life.”

Li Juan immediately said with a flattering face: “I, Li Juan, have no way to repay Miss Xiangxiang’s life-saving grace, and I’m willing to die for you.”

“Remember that. Tonight, I have something for you to do. If you succeed, you can choose from my collection of jewelry, and I’ll give you a set of real estate, enough for you to live worry-free for the rest of your life.”

Li Juan immediately looked overjoyed: “Really? That’s great, I’ll do whatever Miss Xiangxiang asks me to.”

Zhu Xiangxiang was very satisfied with her understanding.

Upstairs, Zhu Shaodan came down yawning, and seeing Zhu Xiangxiang, he immediately jumped over: “How’s it going? Is everything arranged?”

Zhu Xiangxiang tiptoed to adjust his collar: “Tonight, all the major celebrities in Jiangzhou will be here, including the major media covering the banquet. Be steady, don’t disgrace the Zhu family.”

Zhu Shaodan pursed his lips: “Is it me who disgraces the Zhu family?”

“Alright, it’s almost time, let’s go.”

Li Juan’s eyes darted around as she followed quickly.

At six o’clock, most of the guests had arrived, and the finale characters made their appearance.

Shen Zhou and Mr. Shen, the newly arrived Mr. Hu, Mr. Shen’s couple, and Madam Jiang finally arrived, setting off the climax of the party.

This was also Jiang Chunlan’s first appearance in front of the camera, the woman who controlled half of Jiangzhou’s power was unveiled.

——Wow, this madam has such an amazing aura, her figure is so good. She must be a powerful person to appear after Mr. Shen.

——Huh? The guy next to her looks familiar; isn’t he the recently famous school hunk of Jiang University? Could she be the school hunk’s mother?

——They do look alike, so they’re genuinely mother and son. Rumors say Jiang school hunk has a prominent background, and the rumors do not seem fake. It’s just that this lady looks very powerful…

——Look up the Jiang family of Jingzhou and you’ll be shocked. Don’t let your imagination run wild, it’s already a great honor to have them here.

Then this comment was quickly deleted by the system.

Bai Ziyan, Song Yinzhang, and Qu Feitai arrived together. Three handsome men with their own talents were always the most popular wherever they went.

Of course, Qu Feitai’s arrival completely ignited the climax of tonight’s event.

The live broadcast room was full of comments, and the internet was paralyzed for a moment.

This was the power of a top superstar.

Even the scene became agitated because of his arrival.

Jiang Chunlan paused and looked back: “The young man from the Qu family.”

Jiang Jinchen’s face was cold, taking a glance and then withdrawing his gaze: “Let’s go in.”

Jiang Chunlan glanced at him: “Do you want to greet your friends?”

“No need.” Jiang Jinchen turned around expressionlessly, his tall and straight back exuding coldness.

Jiang Chunlan smiled and walked in gracefully under the respectful gazes of Lin Qing and Zhu Wentao.

Xie Zhen fiddled with her newly bought dress, which was the most expensive one she had ever bought. But among these wealthy people adorned with pearls and gems, she looked incredibly plain.

At the entrance of the hotel’s red carpet, she didn’t have the courage to step on it.

As she was about to leave, someone grabbed her braid: “Where are you going?”

Xie Zhen turned around: “Zhao Heng?”

Zhao Heng was wearing a suit, looking tall and handsome. His hair was slicked back and shiny, giving off a mature charm.

“Hmm, am I so handsome that you can’t even recognize me?” Zhao Heng suddenly leaned in close to Xie Zhen, staring at her face.

Xie Zhen’s heartbeat quickened, and she shyly lowered her eyes: “What… what are you doing?”

Zhao Heng suddenly reached out, and Xie Zhen’s heart almost jumped out of her throat.

“Your mascara is not well applied, it’s all clumped together.” Zhao Heng pinched the lumps of mascara on his fingertip.

Xie Zhen’s face flushed red, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

“Don’t be afraid. Later, I’ll find someone to redo your makeup. I’ll take you in; you’re Ming Jing’s friend, be confident, and don’t disgrace her.”

Xie Zhen pursed her lips, her confusion quickly soothed.

“Thank you,” she whispered.

Thinking about not letting down Ming Jing, she stood tall and followed Zhao Heng onto the red carpet.
