Chapter 78: The Main Event

“Bang!”

The door of the cubicle was pushed open, startling Huo Qing and Bai Ting.

They turned to look at the door at the same time, and the smile on their faces froze.

Yun Qing walked out slowly with her starry gown in her hand. Her charming red lips curled up as she walked to their side as if nothing had happened and washed her hands.

“Are you excited to see me? You can’t seem to stop staring.”

Yun Qing leisurely looked at herself in the mirror. In front of her, Huo Qing and Bai Ting were extremely inferior.

“You, why are you here?”

Bai Ting thought that Yun Qing would not attend tonight’s banquet, but she did not expect that the two of them would actually meet here.

Huo Qing obviously had not expected it either, but she quickly reacted. She snorted coldly, “Ha, Yun Qing, you won’t be able to be happy for long. Do you think the Yun family will help you? You’d better not struggle on your deathbed. You’re just a broken shoe, second-hand trash!”

If it weren’t for the fact that she was afraid of dirtying the sapphire bracelet on her wrist, Yun Qing really wanted to give Huo Qing a slap.

She was clearly the eldest daughter of the Huo family, yet her words were so vicious and unpleasant.

Yun Qing shook the water off her hands and didn’t say a word. She only gave the two of them a meaningful glance and left.

Huo Qing stared at Yun Qing’s back and gritted her teeth.

She could see the value of Yun Qing’s jewelry and the dress.

Why? Why could a b*tch dress better than her?!

However, Yun Qing’s good days were coming to an end. She would take this as a last dying gasp.

In the middle of the banquet hall, all the businessmen were exchanging pleasantries, trying to win over connections at such an occasion.

Sun Lan was discussing the new jewelry from a luxury brand with a few noblewomen when Huo Qing ran over and pulled her aside.

“What happened to you? Did you see a ghost?” Sun Lan frowned slightly when she saw Huo Qing’s expression.

Huo Qing whispered, “Sister Bai Ting and I bumped into Yun Qing in the bathroom just now!”

“Yun Qing?!” Sun Lan almost cried out in surprise. “Why is she here?”

“I don’t know. I thought she wouldn’t come.” Huo Qing was also confused.

Sun Lan thought for a moment and snorted, “I think that b*tch is taking the opportunity to make a scene at the Yun family and ask them to allow her to be their daughter-in-law.”

“Just now, your grandfather and Director Yun chatted for a while. You didn’t see how ugly Director Yun’s expression was when he mentioned that woman, Yun Qing!”

Sun Lan had been beside Elder Huo just now and had seen Yun Kun’s expression.

She was even more certain that Yun Qing had come uninvited this time and was planning to make a scene.

After Sun Lan said that, Huo Qing felt that it all made sense.

A woman like Yun Qing would definitely do such a thing.

With that thought, Huo Qing felt relieved.

The banquet had not officially started, but the eyes of the Huo family members had not stopped sweeping around. Everyone was looking for Yun Qing.

“Chuan, have some fruit.”

Bai Ting saw Huo Chuan looking around and guessed that he was looking for Yun Qing.

She gritted her teeth and walked to him with a small plate of fruit. She picked up an apple and handed it to Huo Chuan.

Huo Chuan looked down at her, his eyes cold.

Then, he looked up and ignored her.

Bai Ting’s hand froze, feeling awkward.

Ever since she returned to the country, Huo Chuan had treated her coldly, unlike before.

She rarely got to see Huo Chuan.

It was not easy for her to see Huo Chuan. She wanted to get close to him, but Huo Chuan rejected her.

All of this was because of Yun Qing!

Bai Ting hated Yun Qing, but she was about to fall from the altar.

She wanted to see Yun Qing being despised by everyone, driven out of this noble occasion, and kicked out of the Yun family!

At this moment, the lights dimmed, and the music stopped abruptly.

Under the spotlight, Yun Kun walked to the main stage with a smile on his face.

Everyone knew that the highlight of the night was about to come. The media all set up their cameras and waited for Yun Kun to speak.

“Welcome to the Yun group’s anniversary celebration. Without everyone’s support, the Yun group would not have been able to prosper over the years. Here, I would like to propose a toast to everyone.”

Yun Kun raised the wineglass in his hand, looking extremely bold.

These were all polite words. The Yun family had a rich background and was a prestigious family. No one had any reason to avoid getting close to them.
