Chapter 294: Appearance

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

While everyone was staring at Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen suddenly walked toward Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was standing in the middle of the hall, which was a very conspicuous place, and she was being discussed by everyone. With someone who was also in the limelight walking toward her at this moment, everyone couldn’t help but look at Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu wouldn’t have cared if people were just talking about her and might have even chatted with them. However, Jiang Chen’s approach made her feel uneasy and she even had the urge to avoid him.

When he saw the panic in Yuan Shu’s eyes, a complacent smile appeared on Jiang Chen’s face and he kept walking toward Yuan Shu. Despite how many years had passed, he was still forcing her to a dead end.

Just as Jiang Chen was getting closer and closer, someone suddenly stopped him.

Song Shi was wearing a bright yellow tube top short skirt and her short hair was tucked behind her ear, making her look gorgeous yet capable.

She held Jiang Chen’s arm as she said with a smile, “Brother Jiang Chen, you’re finally here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

It turned out that Song Shi had been watching every move in the private room upstairs and she was the one who secretly instructed the others to make things difficult for Yuan Shu.

The moment she saw Yuan Shu, she was furious. She didn’t understand why the horse didn’t kill Yuan Shu on the set that day!

She had deliberately run to the set and declared her sovereignty in front of so many people. She had acted intimate with Jiang Chen and had even secretly hidden a round-headed nail in the saddle, driving the horse crazy. She had wanted to hurt Yuan Shu, but unexpectedly, Yuan Shu escaped unscathed. Song Shi had smashed Papa Song’s new antique vase in a fit of anger after hearing the news.

When Song Chuan returned home and saw the debris all over the ground, he was furious, but after knowing that it was Song Shi who had done it, he only punished a few servants and didn’t scold Song Shi. This emboldened Song Shi.

Today, Song Shi and her grandfather, Song Hong, came to the banquet. Their grandeur completely suppressed that of Song Chuan and her mother, Li Lin.

Song Shi gnashed her teeth in anger when she saw that so many people failed to make things difficult for Yuan Shu, but when she turned around and saw Jiang Chen, her focus shifted to Jiang Chen.

She found that Jiang Chen was becoming more and more aloof and arrogant. He was completely different from the previous Jiang Chen, but this made her even more infatuated with him. Now, every time Jiang Chen appeared, Song Shi felt even more attracted to him.

Song Shi asked the makeup artist to touch up her makeup again, then she hurried to find Jiang Chen.

When she found Jiang Chen was walking toward Yuan Shu, she became even more anxious, but she ran over and stopped Jiang Chen in time.

Song Shi stretched out her hand in front of Jiang Chen and said, “Today’s banquet is to celebrate my return to the country. Do you have any gifts for me?” Jiang Chen didn’t want to embarrass Song Shi in public. After all, he would have to work with the Song family in the future, and Song Shi was the most precious person to the Song family’s old master. If Song Shi was unhappy, it would be equivalent to angering the Song family’s old master.

Therefore, Jiang Chen stopped and showed a polite yet distant smile. “Your gift is ready. I’ll ask Zheng Tian to send it to your house. You can take a look at it when you get back.”

His smile made many single young ladies gasp. They couldn’t help but swoon over how handsome this man was. He was simply a homme fatale!

Hearing this, Song Shi smiled sweetly and deliberately leaned closer to Jiang Chen as she said in a hoarse voice, “You’re so annoying. Why are you being so mysterious when you’re just giving me a gift? 1 want to see it now.”

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes. He didn’t answer Song Shi’s question. Just as he was about to walk forward, he found that Yuan Shu was no longer there.

That made sense. Song Shi was the protagonist of the banquet today. Since the protagonist had already appeared, she naturally had to give up the limelight. Yuan Shu took advantage of their flirting to leave the crowd’s sight and hide elsewhere.

As for the others, they took the initiative to come up and exchange pleasantries. The hall became lively again.

Someone leaned closer and said, “Congratulations on returning to the country, Miss Song. You became even more beautiful after this trip. Your clothes are also fashionable and gorgeous. You’re not someone we can compare to.”

When the others heard her belittling them and praising Song Shi, they secretly glared at the person who spoke and decided to ostracize her..
