The atmosphere was lively, and there was laughter everywhere. It was as if their children were getting engaged today.
At 10: 10 pm, the three members of the Zhen family walked over together.
Although Zhen Jiahua was almost 50 years old, he took good care of himself and looked like a man who was less than 40 years old. He was especially charming.
Coupled with his gentle and sharp face, one could see that he was also a handsome man when he was young.
Madam Zhen's appearance was not the most attractive, but the scholarly fragrance on her body was the biggest highlight.
Accompanied by the two of them, Jia Yuntong, who was walking in the middle, seemed to be much inferior.
No matter how good the custom-made gown was, it could not lift up her image.
Her face could only be considered delicate, but she had to choose a particularly gorgeous peony dress. The thick red color instantly made this strapless dress more graceful and noble.
Jia Yuntong, on the other hand, wore it incongruously. Her carefully painted face looked delicate and lovely, but because of her seemingly innocent eyes, she looked clean and helpless.
She thought she felt good, but she did not know that many people with status and identity were full of disdain for her.
Even if she was a real phoenix, without a good upbringing, there was nothing to be proud of.
Some even suspected that it was a genetic mutation. No matter how one looked at it, the Zhen couple were very outstanding in all aspects.
But this … The difference between the two was obvious.
Jia Yuntong was happy and excited on the way here, but after entering the hotel, the gazes of the people around her made her a little nervous.
Especially those ambiguous glances, she couldn't help but stiffen.
After all, it was the first time she had seen such a big scene. She felt a little uneasy and held her parents' hands tightly.
Madam Zhen patted her daughter's hand gently, her face full of tolerance and love. This was her biological daughter, who had suffered so much outside.
Fortunately, she was back. She would do her best to make up for what she owed her.
Although she was worried about her adopted daughter, but … she sighed in her heart. Her daughter did not like it, and their Zhen family had never mistreated their adopted daughter.
Zhen Jiahua brought the two of them over to greet the people. After a while, they were surrounded by people.
Jia Yuntong stood aside awkwardly, unable to say anything.
It was Madam Zhen who led her out of the crowd at the right time and brought her to the circle of noble ladies.
In the end, Jia Yuntong, who had only been out for less than two weeks, did not know much about the upper circle. Naturally, she did not know anything about brands, designs, or celebrities.
For a moment, the atmosphere was very tense because the noble ladies didn't dare to talk about such high-end topics due to the Zhen family's status.
However, they usually talked about these things. Other than these, they didn't have anything else to talk about. They couldn't find anything else to talk about.
"Madam Zhen, why hasn't your daughter changed her surname?"
A rich lady dressed in Yoyo Haute Couture reluctantly found a topic and asked casually.
The few young ladies beside her also had curious looks on their faces as they acted coquettishly towards Madam Zhen.
"Auntie, please tell us. We are also very curious."
He was really curious. Since it had already been announced in such a high-profile manner, why hadn't they changed the name back? He couldn't figure it out.
Jia Yuntong's face turned pale for a moment. Her eyes were full of anger. She quickly lowered her head to hide something that shouldn't be there.
If that b * tch hadn't taken over her identity, she wouldn't have needed to wait for the name change step.
All kinds of relationships had to be matched, and their family backgrounds had to be investigated. Her father wanted to be cautious and did not want such a mistake to happen again. They could not afford it.
As an understanding daughter, she could only endure and accept it.
"Because Yuntong is busy with the engagement, she doesn't have time to change it for the time being. She is going to change it after this engagement."
Madam Zhen was still very protective of her daughter. She smiled and answered appropriately.
"Yes, that's true. Then …" The noble lady's words were stuck in her throat. She looked at the woman who was walking towards the door in surprise.
She wasn't the only one. Everyone who noticed her turned to look at her.
Her long black hair that was as black as a spring gently slid over her shoulders. The jade-colored tassels that were threaded into a pearl belt irregularly blended into her hair.
As she walked, there was a crisp and pleasant sound of collision.
Her jade-like skin was crimson. She didn't wear any makeup. Her brows were furrowed like a spring mountain, and her eyes were wrinkled like autumn water. Her beautiful eyes were like a charming fairy that was dyed red in the darkness.
Her lips were as beautiful as a rose in March, blooming in the most intense scene.
A crystal necklace on her neck made her collarbone look clear.
She was wearing a white low-cut long dress and a small silk white gauze jacket. A white ribbon was tied around her waist.
She was really graceful and charming, and the silver chain on her wrist added a touch of coldness to it.
Xunmi glanced at them indifferently. She was very satisfied with their performance. Do you know what a coquettish b * tch is? It's just … a smile with the corners of her mouth and a hint of frivolity in her eyes.
She instantly tempted those people. But when they wanted to go forward, they touched her awe-inspiring and inviolable temperament. They couldn't help but stop in their tracks.
She was a stunner, a real stunner.
There was no lack of people who recognized her identity. But at this moment, they were collectively silent.
There was really no harm without comparison. No matter how luxurious the clothes of a real phoenix were, it couldn't compare to this person's casual gaze.
Xunmi took off her jacket quietly and handed it to the waiter who was waiting by the side.
Her slender waist, bare and fair back, and lustrous shoulders were completely exposed in the air.
After defeating countless young ladies with her looks and temperament, she once again defeated them with her figure.
It was said that the more you were provoked, the more evil you became. The female lead was really provoked to the point that she was burning with anger. The latest COYI bag in her hand was twisted by her grip.
The young ladies beside her had complicated expressions on their faces.
Why would that person come to such an occasion? And the question was, how did she get in?
What was she doing here? Causing trouble? It didn't look like it. But … she completely overshadowed the person beside her who wasn't outstanding to begin with.
Zhen Jiahua quickly reacted, but his expression didn't change. His adopted daughter seemed to be different.
"What are you doing here?" His tone was neither good nor bad. It could only be said that it was passable.
Xunmi didn't have any extra emotions in front of this person. She just took out an exquisitely designed invitation from her bag.
"A few days ago, Miss Jia personally sent it over. I didn't want to come, but I was worried that after today, there would be a lot of false rumors about me. So I came. "
After a pause, she continued, "Everyone has their limits. I used to respect all of you, and I still do.
"Because I'm very grateful for everything you've given me. Today, I'm here to give you my blessings. After the engagement, I'll leave."
There was a hint of bitterness in her eyes, but it was quickly concealed. It was so quick that people thought it was an illusion.
