Chapter 371: What a Waste of Good Skin and Beauty
Shen Fanxing’s outfit tonight wasn’t outstanding.
She wore a white formal outfit.
She paired a white s.h.i.+rt with loose dressy pants and a knee-length jacket of the same color. Her long hair tumbled over her shoulders and she looked refres.h.i.+ng and capable.
Her presence didn’t attract much attention, and Yin Ruijue was a little disappointed.
“Sister Xingxing, why didn’t you wear a gown or dress? Look! All the women present are either revealing their cleavage or back. But you’re not even dressed like you’re at work! It’s rare for you to attend an event. Why didn’t you think of showing off? Look at Xu Qingzhi… Er… are both of you even women?!”
Yin Ruijue nearly vomited blood. After scrutinizing Xu Qingzhi’s conservative dark blue dress, he rubbed his forehead in resignation.
“What a waste of such good skin and beauty!”
Shen Fanxing shook her head helplessly.
On the other hand, Ye Susu studied her with admiration.
Shen Fanxing was indeed a smart woman.
Something sparkled in Ye Susu’s eyes. It was a pity. If not for the fact that she knew that the young master of the Bo family had taken a liking to Shen Fanxin, it would have been a good idea to introduce her to Yunze.
It seemed like her son wasn’t fortunate enough. Initially, it was the young master of the Su family. Now, Young Master Bo had acted swiftly when her son wasn’t aware. He didn’t even have the chance to introduce himself to the young lady.
She couldn’t help but sigh in disappointment, but Shen Fanxing had noticed her.
“Madam Pei, are you all right?”
Ye Susu shook her head. “I’m fine.”
Just as she finished speaking, a low buzz sounded from the entrance.
They looked in the direction.
A beautiful couple walked in together.
The man wore a formal black suit. He was tall, lean, and good-looking. He looked capable and possessed a superior aura.
The woman in his arms was wearing a red gown that hugged her shoulders. Her shoulders were half exposed and as she strode, a pair of slender legs could be seen from the slit at the side of her gown.
With exquisite makeup and natural delicate beauty, she completed the look with an impeccable smile.
The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They were undoubtedly a perfect couple.
It was Su Heng and Shen Qianrou.
Shen Fanxing retracted her gaze calmly, a look of contempt skittering across her eyes.
Ye Susu’s gaze lingered on Shen Qianrou for a few seconds before she frowned.
The moment Shen Qianrou entered, she spotted Shen Fanxing.
After seeing Shen Fanxing’s outfit tonight, she felt even more smug.
That was what she should do. She should always look dull and boring and she would never be able to compare to her!
When Su Heng saw Shen Fanxing, the expression on his das.h.i.+ng face froze.
…
Before the banquet officially started, Shen Fanxing took a gla.s.s of champagne and stood on the balcony to enjoy the night breeze.
Her hair fluttered in the wind and one could catch a whiff of her faint scent.
“Fanxing.”
A familiar voice sounded from behind. Shen Fanxing frowned and turned around slowly.
Su Heng had already walked towards her and was staring intently at her. They had just met a few days ago, but he felt as though an eternity had pa.s.sed.
They had hardly spoken since they parted ways.
“Why are you here?”
Shen Fanxing looked distant and composed. Her suit accentuated her slender figure.
Her face was full of coldness and nonchalance. “When did the Pei family change their surname to Su?”
Hearing Shen Fanxing’s sarcastic question, Su Heng pressed his lips and watched as the breeze ruffled her hair.
His expression faltered slightly.
