He Ming saw Hu Shanshan in a short cream dress. The off-shoulder style accentuated her fair and slender neck. Her back was exposed, and she looked sexy and charming.
Hu Shanshan was surrounded by a group of young men who were all from rich families judging from the clothes they wore. Everyone was flattering her.
He Ming didn’t know Hu Shanshan’s family background, but judging from the situation, it was definitely not simple.
Hu Shanshan had a smile on her face, but her eyes were fixed at the entrance to the banquet hall.
Soon, she saw He Ming. She walked through the crowds toward him like a butterfly dancing gracefully.
“Brother He, it’s so great that you’re finally here. I thought you weren’t coming.” Hu Shanshan said coquettishly, her voice filled with joy.
“I promised you that I would come. Here, happy birthday.” He Ming handed her the gift wrapped bracelet.
“Brother He, you shouldn’t have. Thank you. I’m so happy.” Hu Shanshan smiled.
“I hope you like it.” He Ming wanted to leave as soon as possible, wondering what Xiaomeng had been busy with today…
“Come, let me introduce you.” Hu Shanshan led He Ming to a very well-dressed woman. She was holding a glass of red wine and entertaining the people around her.
“Brother He, this is my mother.” Hu Shanshan introduced.
“Hello, Auntie.” He Ming greeted first out of politeness.
“He Ming, right? Look at you all grown up now. Although I’m close with your mother, I hardly see you.” Hu Shanshan’s mother said with a smile, looking He Ming up and down the whole time like she was perusing a son-in-law whom she liked.
He Ming was tall and handsome, while Hu Shanshan was delicate and charming.
“Shanshan, take good care of He Ming.” Mrs. Hu turned her head and instructed Shanshan. She then said to He Ming, “Sorry for not entertaining you. You young people should have fun together.”
Shanshan dragged He Ming to introduce him to her friends. He Ming was really regretting it now.
Why did he come? Even if his mother held a knife to his neck, he shouldn’t have come. He was really stuck now.
He Ming forced a smile as he hoped for time to pass quickly.
When Hu Shanshan was entertaining her friends, He Ming slipped out to the balcony of the banquet hall and dialed Ye Xiaomeng’s number.
His call was picked up after a long time. “What are you doing?” He Ming’s voice was magnetic. It sounded magical to Ye Xiaomeng.
“I’m still playing with Joy at Shu Pan’s house. I haven’t seen her in a long time. She’s so cute now.” Ye Xiaomeng made Joy laughed so hard that her laughter could be heard through the phone.
“I’ll pick you up later.” He Ming said.
“Aren’t you busy? Can you leave?” Ye Xiaomeng asked. She wasn’t too far away from home anyway, so it didn’t matter.
Just as He Ming was about to reply, Hu Shanshan walked over with a glass of champagne. “Brother He, you are here. You really made me look all over for you!”
Because she was standing close to him, Hu Shanshan’s every word was transmitted through the phone and heard clearly by Ye Xiaomeng. She frowned and hung up the phone when He Ming didn’t say another word.
“I came out to get some fresh air.” He Ming immediately pressed the phone to his ear after he said that but the call had already ended.
He Ming was burning with anxiety, wishing he could grow a pair of wings and fly back. He was worried that Ye Xiaomeng would misunderstand the situation..
