As Dana and Fazhan greeted the guests there, Heya wondered where Sara was.
Why did she suddenly run away?
Heya watched as people looked at her curiously.
Most of them could not believe that this was actually the "Li Heya".
Those who didn"t get to see her video before it was taken down had heard rumours beforehand that she was ugly and it was the reason why she had been in hiding for years.
But this girl before them was nothing close to being ugly at all.
She was on the big side but she wasn"t as fat as everyone had exaggerated. She looked really stunning in the long purple c.o.c.ktail gown and low heel she was wearing.
Heya was slightly uncomfortable but she decided to rule out every negativity today.
She was Li Heya. She had confidence!
For days, she had been trying to get used to wearing a corset comfortably. But whenever it was time to workout, she didn"t forget to take it off.
She was glad that she could comfortably wear the corset now. It helped made her figure appear like a hourgla.s.s.
This was the first time she was in a place like this. Also her first time on so much make up, jeweleries and these kind of clothes.
"h.e.l.lo" She said with a bow to whoever her parents introduced her to.
Truthfully, she wasn"t interested in any of these.
When they were finally done with the introductions, she went out to look for Sara.
"Honey... You haven"t answered me yet. What is that girl doing here?" Although a soft music was playing on the background, Dana asked in a whisper as soon as Heya left.
Fazhan chuckled. "You"ll find out soon. But isn"t it normal for your son"s girlfriend to be in his grandmother"s birthday party?" He asked her.
"What? Son"s girlfriend?" She looked at him with surprise written all over her face. "What are you saying all of a sudden? How can you accept her as Muchen"s girlfriend just like that?"
"Why can"t we? He is the one who loves her. If you love another woman too much and you want her as his girlfriend, you can just date her instead. Why do you have to give him the person you like when he likes someone else?"
He asked with a short laugh which caused her to frown.
"The girl is weird. She is not suitable for him. I can"t believe you are saying this. When did you draw such conclusion without my knowing?"
She asked in displeasure but smiled and bowed to a person who just entered inside the hall before facing her husband again.
"What did she say to you outside? You both seemed really close."
"We were just discussing. She seem like an interesting person. I"m sure it"s the reason why he likes her."
"It doesn"t matter. She is not from a suitable family. The best I can do is to allow her keep working as Heya"s coach. She shouldn"t expect any more"
He laughed before adding. "Is she getting married to an emperor or something? Besides..."
He moved closer to whisper in her ear "She is in fact, a shareholder" He added in amus.e.m.e.nt.
Dana"s eyes widened before she asked with interest. "Which company?"
"Her Father"s restaurant" He answered with a wink.
Dana scoffed in disbelief before glaring at her husband.
"She is obviously lurking around because of who Muchen is. Do you think it would be normal for any lady to reject him even if she doesn"t love him.." Dana shook her head before correcting herself. "Do you think it would even be possible for any woman not to love him? I know what I"m saying. She"s here for his money" Dana critically a.n.a.lysed. "I can trust Muchen"s feelings for her but I can"t trust hers"
"I don"t think so if you ask me." He paused to greet a guest before whispering back to her.
"If she was after this family"s wealth, do you know what she would have obviously done first?"
Dana looked intently at him before asking inquisitively
"What?"
"She would have gone deeply into this family"s root. She would have known every member and the type of things we like just to please us. But...she obviously didn"t know who I was. She sincerely likes our son so stop being judgemental. And...do not hit her again. You scare her."
When he was done with his speech, he took large strides to go greet his elder brother who just arrived with his family minus Hoy.
"This is unbelievable" Dana shook her head and murmured before joining her husband to greet her in-laws.
As they were conversing together, they saw Sara enter with Changyu and Heya.
People became further curious about the person Sara truly was.
Not only did she date Mo Jinyong, her best friend had been Liu Weiyoing. She was also acquainted with Mo Dexi.
And now, she was the MC for this occasion and was currently walking in with Changyu holding her hand like they were friends.
A lot of people had no idea she was working as Heya"s coach. Only a handful had seen the video of Heya hugging Sara after she finished singing on the streets. And no one had taken note of her before the video was taken down. Only people who knew her and Heya personally had known it was her that time.
They had only known her when she made the video about Weiyoung and Jinyong.
Who was she really? She wasn"t a socialite but it seemed she had a lot of solid connection and socialites around her.
They knew instantly that she wasn"t one to mess with.
When the members of the Li family saw Changyu and Sara, they all quickly approached Changyu to say h.e.l.lo to her. No matter what, she was still the number one in the business sector. They hadn"t bothered inviting her family because it might annoy her and besides, her family had no influence now. They were still trying to get back on their feet and it seemed Changyu was actually serious when she said she was no longer a Song.
"Miss Changyu" They all greeted her with smiles on their faces and curiosity as to why she was holding Sara"s hand so intimately.
After greeting them back, she said to them "She is a friend of mine" Changyu introduced Sara to Han, Fazhan, Dana, Minde and his mother.
They all looked at her and then at Sara in surprise. Sara smiled sheepishly before bowing to greet them all. When her eyes met Fazhan"s, she lowered her head in shame.
"Oh... I know her. She is a very nice girl and she is pretty also" Fazhan added with a tiny smile. After all, he was doing what Sara had asked him to do.
Changyu smiled back when she noted that he wasn"t looking at Sara in a disapproving manner.
Before Sara could think of something to say, the door opened again. And the one who entered was none other than her boyfriend Li Muchen.
