Huo Yao glanced sideways at the paper bag in Min Yu's hand as they walked out of the shop. "Didn't you say that the dress didn't fit?"
Min Yu held Huo Yao's hand with his free hand and said seriously, "How can I let someone else wear the dress after my girlfriend tried it on?"
Huo Yao snorted. "How childish!"
Min Yu raised his brow. He tilted his head and whispered in Huo Yao's ear. "Moreover, the dress was wrinkled by us. It will affect the second sale."
Huo Yao instantly blushed. "..."
What a show-off!
Huo Yao did not want to listen to him anymore. She stepped on his foot before pulling her hand back and heading for the stairs.
Min Yu smiled and followed her.

Meanwhile.
At Fan Shun's private manor.
"Sir, Earl Murray just called to say that the girl will be attending the banquet at his residence tomorrow."
Fan Shun's hands paused as he typed on his laptop, and he raised his eyelids.
The assistant continued. "Earl Murray wanted me to tell you something else. Old Master Huo is seriously injured, and we don't know if he's dead or alive. Even if we touch the girl, the Huo family won't be able to help her."
"Huo Jingfeng is seriously injured? What a coincidence! "Fan Shun looked at the assistant in surprise.
The assistant nodded. "The earl wouldn't joke about something like this, so it must be true."
Fan Shun leaned back in his chair. "Who did Murray invite?"
The assistant had already asked around. "All the major families, the royal family's elders, and the princes have been invited. The banquet is going to be grand."
Fan Shun nodded. "The more people there are, the more complicated it will be. Murray is quite cunning."
"Yeah. This will make them a bigger target. After all, no matter how powerful the Huo family is, they won't dare to offend so many people." The assistant instantly understood Earl Murray's intentions.
He was the executioner, but he had removed himself from the blame.
Tsk.
Fan Shun's lips curved into a playful smile. He continued typing on his laptop. "Go and get ready."
The assistant glanced at Fan Shun and did not disturb him. He acknowledged him and left.

The next day.
The banquet at the residence started at 6: 00 pm.
At 5pm, Huo Yao changed into her gown and went downstairs.
Huo Yulin was also wearing a Western-style tuxedo, and his every movement exuded a gentlemanly aura. He had just ended his call, and when he turned around to look at his little sister, he paused for a moment.
The retro black dress exuded a restrained grace, especially the golden embroidery at the collar, which made the girl's fair skin look even more translucent.
Her slightly curly long hair was coiled up casually with a hairpin, making her look like a classical beauty from a painting.
His sister was so pretty.
However, Huo Yulin wasn't in a good mood as he looked at the gown. "That man's taste isn't that great either."
"Brother Yulin, what did you say?" asked Huo Yao as she approached him.
Huo Yulin shook his head and gestured for her to hold his arm. "I said my sister is the prettiest."
"I think so too." Huo Yao had always been confident about her looks. She nodded and hooked her arm around Huo Yulin's.
Huo Yulin smiled. "Let's go."
Soon, the two of them got into the car.
Huo Yao could not help blinking when she saw the Huo family's motorcade following behind them. "Is there a need for such a big entourage?"
Huo Yulin looked calm. He was already used to it. "This is the Huo family's pride."
