Chapter 24 What a shame
"Hmph, I don't know what my brother thinks, let's let Sister Manxi be so good, I have to choose a woman who is worthless." Speaking of this, Huo Xinyan scanned the banquet hall and continued to complain: "What time is it?" It’s gone, but it’s not here yet, I really think I’m a character!”

Yan Ruyi was also a little unhappy.

No one dared to be late for the dinner she hosted!
As soon as this thought came to mind, there was a sudden exclamation from the door of the banquet hall.

Hearing the sound, everyone looked in that direction.

I saw a simple and elegant figure, suddenly caught in everyone's sight...

"Who is this guy? Why did he come here dressed like this?"

"Did you go to the wrong place? Who would wear this look to the banquet?"

"How is it possible? You can't come to this banquet without an invitation."

"Could it be the guest invited by Mrs. Huo? Look at the face, which lady's daughter?"

"I think she slipped in by taking advantage of the loopholes, trying to make connections, right? Look at the clothes on her, they are cheaper than the waiter next to her!"

Everyone who came to the dinner tonight was wearing expensive dresses, but the only one who came was wearing a white dress. Although the dress looked simple and clean, it dropped hundreds of grades in an instant among the bunch of famous brands. Even the waiters are dressed more formally than her.

Everyone was puzzled, pointing at her immediately, they started talking about it.

Mu Wanzhi felt uneasy after being told.

In fact, she had hesitated outside for a long time before coming in.

Naturally, she also knew what she was wearing, which was out of place here.But the skirt she was wearing was already the best she could get her hands on, so she could only wear it.

Just when she was in a panic, at this moment, a noble and soft voice suddenly rang in her ears: "You are Miss Mu Wanzhi, right?"

A dignified and dignified woman in a cheongsam dress stood in front of her and asked, her almond eyes looked at her lightly, and there was a bit critical taste in her eyes.

Although she didn't know who the other party was, Mu Wanzhi still nodded politely: "I am! Are you...?"

"I'm Si Jue's mother!"

The woman still responded lightly, with a somewhat haughty expression.

Mu Wanzhi was stunned for an instant.

Did she hear correctly?She actually said... She is Huo Sijue's mother?
This... how is this possible?

She doesn't look very old, especially her face, not only is it well maintained, but also her temperament is still charming, she is only in her forties at most, how can she be Huo Sijue's mother?

Isn't Huo Sijue over 50?

Maybe it was too much shock, Mu Wanzhi didn't react for a moment.

Yan Ru frowned slightly when she saw the complaint: "Miss Mu, why are you here dressed like this? All the guests who come to the dinner party tonight are my distinguished guests. How can you behave like this?"

Mu Wanzhi is not stupid, she immediately heard the displeasure in Yan Ruyu's words, she quickly came back to her senses, with an apologetic expression on her face: "Sorry, Auntie, I didn't mean it, I just... just..." But there is no dress!
It was really hard for Mu Wanzhi to say the latter sentence.

"Don't explain! I think you did it on purpose. You knew it was a dinner party hosted by your mother, and you came here on purpose. I really don't know what my brother likes about you. It's shameful to be so vulgar!"

Huo Xinyan didn't like Mu Wanzhi in the first place, so she was very rude when speaking.

Mu Wanzhi's expression was a little embarrassed for a moment, and she stood there with a face full of bewilderment.

"That woman is really Mrs. Huo's guest, but she looks too disrespectful to Mrs. Huo in this way?"

"Isn't it here to smash the field? It's so courageous that even the Huo family dares to mess with it."

"I don't see it. Maybe there is some difficulty. Look at her expression, she is a little pitiful."

"Didn't you hear just now, Miss Huo said that the girl is the woman that Young Master Huo likes!"

In a word, countless uproars were set off.

"Liar, did you hear me wrong? How could Huo Shao fall in love with that kind of woman?"

"Exactly! Young Master Huo already has Luo Ziyao as his fiancée, not to mention, there is Lu Manxi over there. That's the celebrity in front of Mrs. Huo, maybe she might become the wife of the Huo family."

"If you ask me, Luo Ziyao's savage lady is gone, but Lu Manxi is more likely! She and Huo Shaolang are a natural match."

"Let's not talk about the two of them, among the famous ladies in the upper class, which one is not for Mr. Huo to choose? There is absolutely no way he will fall in love with that woman."

After discussing for a while, everyone felt the same hatred in an instant, and looked at Mu Wanzhi with discrimination in their eyes.

When Yan Ruyi heard this, her complexion became even worse, and she was even more dissatisfied with the daughter-in-law that her son personally selected. She couldn't help shaking her head in disappointment, and turned to leave.

Huo Xinyan snorted coldly, followed behind her mother, and left quickly.

In the end, only Lu Manxi remained in front of Mu Wanzhi.

She looked at Mu Wanzhi quietly for a moment, and a mocking expression suddenly appeared on that soft and beautiful face: "I heard that Si Jue's fiancée will come tonight, so I came here specially to see. Originally, I thought, The person who can be favored by Si Jue should be better than me in all aspects, and enough to match him, I didn't expect that it would be so disappointing."

Mu Wanzhi suddenly understood in her heart, indeed, people in the upper class are very good at changing faces.

But what puzzled her even more was why her fiancé, who was obviously a 50-[-]-year-old man, became so sought-after?
Could it be that the daughters of the upper class are all so heavy-handed and like this type of old man?
Just when Mu Wanzhi was puzzled, Lu Manxi spoke again: "If I were you, I would definitely leave now, so as not to be ashamed to stay. Someone like you is not worthy of being a superior. Cinderella only exists It's in a fairy tale, so Miss Mu, putting your outfit here will only make people look down on you."

Mu Wanzhi was speechless, her heart was sour and astringent, her chest seemed to be blocked by fermented dough, and she suddenly felt uncomfortable.And the gazes around her really made her a little out of breath.

She didn't want to come either.

If it weren't for Huo Sijue leaving her an invitation, she wouldn't have come here to be humiliated and asked for guilt.

The more she thought about it, the sadder she became, and she couldn't help but feel angry with Huo Sijue.

Damn bastard, what kind of mind do you have?Knowing that she is poor and white, and still letting her come to this kind of place, is it to make her look bad on purpose?
Mu Wanzhi gritted her teeth bitterly, under the countless mocking gazes, she didn't know whether to leave or stay.

It was also at this time that a middle-aged man with the appearance of a housekeeper suddenly walked towards Mu Wanzhi.

All the guests present recognized him. This man was the old butler of the Huo family, and he basically organized the banquet tonight.

Everyone was wondering, when they saw the old butler standing in front of Mu Wanzhi respectfully, and said: "Miss Mu, I have been looking for you for a long time, please come with me, I will take you to change the dress, our young master specially made it for you early in the morning prepared."
