Chapter 24: Leave the Stage to You
Chapter 24: Leave the Stage to You
Mo Xue's gloomy expression due to the limelight being stolen by Mo Yu when she entered the venue became much better now.
Especially during the gift collection segment, Father Shen gave her a house and a car, Mother Shen gave her jewelry, and her brother was the most exaggerated. He said that he didn't know what his sister liked, so he prepared 23 gifts according to her age, one every year.
From antique calligraphy and paintings to musical instruments from famous craftsmen, they had given Mo Xue enough face.
After the process was over, everyone began to eat and drink. They socialized in the upper-class circle while Mo Xue went to change her clothes and prepare for her performance.
Gu Zi did not leave Mo Yu's side at all. He watched as she sat in her seat and ate steadily. He also accompanied her and took a bite of the cake from time to time.
At the same time, he would glare away those who coveted his sister-in-law.
"Gu Zi, I've found you! You don't know how annoying Mo Xue is. She insisted on asking me to help her design the lights. She can just hire a lighting technician for 5,000 yuan." Gu Zi had just finished glaring away a man who wanted to hit on Mo Yu. The next second, he heard someone call him. Before he could manage his expression, he subconsciously turned around.
Zhao Wen originally was very happy to see his good friend. He ran over to greet him while holding his laptop. However, when he met Gu Zi's gaze, he stopped in his tracks hesitantly.
"Are your eyes uncomfortable? Or are you cosplaying as something? Why are you looking at me cross-eyed?"
"You're the one that's cross-eyed! I have to help my brother protect my sister-in-law!" Gu Zi rubbed his face and put away his fierce expression.
He pulled Zhao Wen and introduced him to Mo Yu. "Sister-in-law, this is my best friend, Zhao Wen! The young master of the Zhao family! Zhao Wen, this is my sister-in-law! Isn't she beautiful?"
Mo Yu swallowed the cranberry egg tart in her mouth and greeted Zhao Wen with a smile. She kept muttering in her heart that she had heard this name somewhere.
"The young master of the Zhao family is addicted to the Internet. He cooperated with me in a small Internet company." Gu Lian's voice suddenly appeared and answered Mo Yu.
"Hubby, you're awake!" Mo Yu was pleasantly surprised. If Gu Lian woke up, she could go to sleep.
"Yes, but it's better if you don't switch yet. I'm still very tired, and my legs are very sore. I might fall at the banquet or do something else that will embarrass you." Gu Lian was like a worm in Mo Yu's stomach now. Just from her tone, he could guess what she wanted to do next.
"Alright, alright! Hubby, rest well and we'll switch tomorrow!" Mo Yu had also gathered from her experience during this period of time that her fiancé was quite reliable and very strong-willed.
He couldn't be lying to her now. Besides, if things went smoothly in the future, she still had to rely on him for some things. It was better not to offend others over such an insignificant matter.
On the other side, Zhao Wen had already turned on his computer to show Gu Zi the webpage that had been optimized by Mo Yu.
"You don't know how shocked I was when I woke up that day! What kind of living Bodhisattva is this? He directly helped me fix the bug and didn't accept my money! If I see him in the future, I'll definitely light a cigarette for him, pour wine, and kowtow! I only ask that he accepts me as his disciple!"
Mo Yu listened to these praises quietly at the side and looked a little embarrassed. She hurriedly said that she wanted to go to the toilet and quickly fled the scene.
In the future, she would tell Zhao Wen that she was the big shot he admired. Mo Yu patted her face. As soon as she turned around, she saw Mo Xue standing in front of her after changing her clothes.
"You must be very proud of yourself at the entrance! You stole all my limelight!" There was no one else around, so Mo Xue stopped pretending to be a close sister and showed her sharp and mean face.
"However, you will only be glorious for a moment. I will be glorious for the rest of my life!" Without waiting for Mo Yu to answer, Mo Xue raised her head proudly and sized Mo Yu up.
"The Mo Family doesn't like you either. Otherwise, you wouldn't have become someone's fiancée the moment you were found. The Gu Family seems to be very good to you, but just you wait. What will happen to you when the dirty things you did are exposed! And I will be loved by the Shen Family and everyone else! I will always be high and mighty. You are destined to be inferior to me for the rest of your life!"
