Hidden Marriage: A Heaven-sent Billionaire Husband - Chapter 1655
1655 Too Unpresentable
Was Xie Lifen deliberately trying to disgust Yuan Haoyang?
The more Yuan Haoyang resisted, the more he would fall out with his family. At that time, wouldn’t the entire family belong to Xie Lifen and her son?
Yuan Haoyang was really unfortunate. Not only was he being forced by his family, but he was also being forced by his fans. He also had to resist in all aspects. His days were really not easy.
Ma Xiaohui told Guo Xintao everything and smiled. “Your chance has come. Yuan Haoyang is being attacked from all sides. I’m afraid he won’t be in the mood to focus on his career. It’s only a matter of time before you leave him behind!”
!!
Guo Xintao was full of confidence. “I won’t waste the opportunity you and Uncle gave me!”
“I know.” Ma Xiaohui smiled happily.
The banquet had been going on for a while, but Yuan Haoyang had yet to appear.
Wang Zongheng and Xie Lifen were talking to the Li family. Xie Lifen was having an especially good time with them. She smiled and said, “Lanzi is just three years older than Haoyang. She’s a suitable match for him. Moreover, Lanzi’s personality is the same as Haoyang’s. I believe they’ll get along very well together.”
Everyone quickly nodded.
“Why isn’t Haoyang here yet?” Wang Zongheng was a little angry.
“Don’t get angry. I’ll ask the butler to call him again later,” Xie Lifen said. In any case, she couldn’t wait for the father and son to turn against each other.
Wang Zongheng said, “Hmph, if he doesn’t come, then we’ll just forget about him! Tonight’s business is more important!”
“I know, I know.”
The so-called business tonight was to build a good relationship with the host of tonight’s banquet, the famous Wan Changqing of Jingdu City.
Wan Changqing retired from the military a few years ago. He had extraordinary power and was the target of many aristocratic families.
The reason why the Wan family held this banquet tonight was also because of Wan Changqing. The juniors in his family had all gone to the United States to live, and he liked to liven things up. Therefore, when he heard that many aristocratic families wanted to marry off their children, he decided to take on the role of a host and invited everyone to this gathering.
He was old, but his personality was not quiet. He had some understanding of the internet and celebrities. He was an old man who kept up with the trends.
However, he was not a womanizer, so it was very safe to interact with him. If he became fond of a woman, she would most likely receive all kinds of financial support from him.
Therefore, many people would attend the banquets he held. The news of this also spread, causing more and more people to attend.
Actually, not many people could be on good terms with him.
The Ma family, the Wang family, and the others could appear at the scene because Wan Changqing did not reject anyone.
Otherwise, if he really got picky, their families would not be worthy of attending the Wan family’s banquets.
Wang Zongheng naturally knew this, so he wanted to build a good relationship with Wan Changqing tonight.
Ma Xiaohui knew this very well. She said to Guo Xintao, “Although Wan Changqing, who’s hosting the banquet tonight, is old, he likes the same things youngsters like. As long as it’s someone who sings, draws, or films movies, they won’t have to worry about anything in the future if they manage to get on his good side. I’ll bring you to see him later. If you can make him like you…”
Even before she could finish her sentence, Guo Xintao understood.
He thought that it was impossible for the elders not to like him, so he was very confident.
As they were talking, someone said, “Yuan Haoyang is here!”
Everyone immediately looked at the entrance.
Yuan Haoyang had come alone, and Lin Wenyu was not by his side.
Someone immediately started muttering, “It seems that Yuan Haoyang didn’t want to bring his girlfriend here as he knew he’d embarrass himself. I knew it. How can that be true love? How could Yuan Haoyang really like a commoner?”
“Men nowadays are more realistic than women. If you only have to work hard for ten to 20 years, why wouldn’t you? If you choose the wrong wife, you’ll suffer for decades in the future. Isn’t it good to choose one from a noble family? I never thought that Yuan Haoyang would bring Lin Wenyu here anyway!”
“Same here!”
When Xie Lifen saw Yuan Haoyang, she immediately said, “Haoyang, you’re here? Come quickly. Lanzi is here. Come and meet her!”
“Why should I meet her?” Yuan Haoyang’s words were very impolite. He was used to being straightforward and did not take Xie Lifen seriously at all.
Xie Lifen was not embarrassed. She said, “Lanzi is the daughter of your Uncle Li. She’s an old acquaintance of our family. The Wang and Li families will support each other in the future. Don’t be too willful.”
Her tone was gentle as if she was really a loving mother.
Yuan Haoyang turned around and left.
Wang Zongheng was so angry that his entire body was trembling. However, he could not punish him in front of everyone.
Guo Xintao and Ma Xiaohui could not help but laugh when they saw Yuan Haoyang and his family embarrass themselves in public.
Ma Xiaohui said in a low voice, “How unpresentable!”
Guo Xintao straightened his face and held his head high. He looked like she wanted to defeat Yuan Haoyang.
Yuan Haoyang walked with lazy steps. There was no humility in his expression at all. He casually glanced at everyone. He was no different from his usual domineering, cool, and arrogant self.
Perhaps only in front of Lin Wenyu would he put away his seriousness. In front of her, he was gentle and pious, letting her see only the best side of him.
In his eyes, there was no reason for him to treat anyone else differently.
“Old Master Wan is here!” someone shouted.
Guo Xintao and Ma Xiaohui immediately looked at Old Master Wan and saw a hale and hearty old man walking out with a ruddy face. He waved at everyone with a smile on his face and looked extremely approachable.
The two of them had the geographical advantage and were the first to greet him. “Hello, Grandpa Wan!”
Old Master Wan liked crowds. He glanced at Guo Xintao and Ma Xiaohui and smiled. “Hello!”
He had the same preferences as young people. He liked good-looking people the most. Guo Xintao had been an idol for so many years, so he was naturally good-looking. Old Master Wan smiled, his thick eyebrows curving up. Seeing that Ma Xiaohui was a familiar face, he even greeted her, “Come and sit!”
The two of them followed Wan Changqing and said flattering words while following him fawningly, trying to close the distance between them.
Someone at the scene had already started to post on Weibo: [Guo Xintao and Ma Xiaohui are simply blessed by the heavens tonight. I’m so envious!]
Although the person did not say what was going on, the fans could already imagine it. [That’s for sure. Ma Xiaohui’s family background is so good, and Guo Xintao is handsome. They’re really compatible!]
[I’ve already told you that Ma Xiaohui is an incredible person! Go for it, Yuan Haoyang! Shake off your competitor for good!]
[It seems that a certain someone didn’t go to the venue tonight. Yuan Haoyang thinks that it’ll be too embarrassing if he brings her along, right?]
