Chen Xinzi didn"t know Fang Chenze"s thoughts. After knowing that Huo Jinchen would come, she left, went directly to the beauty salon, and underwent a day"s worth of body spa.
The entire procedure lasted till five o"clock in the afternoon. She then went for a delicate makeup, and changed to a aqua blue thin strap dress.
Chen Xinzi admired herself in the mirror and smiled in satisfaction.
However, thinking of Lu Xingzhi"s small face that is still delicate and bright even without makeup, her confidence inadvertently got a beating.
Her face has been finely tuned before. Although the traces are not obvious, if she were to compare herself six years ago, the difference is still in full view.
The first time she saw Huo Jinchen, she lost heart.
A G.o.d-like figure like him compounded her inferiority.
In order to match him, she dared not to even eat meat for the past years, and only fed on some vegetables and fruits. Every day, she insisted on exercising yoga, maintaining her skin, learning etiquette, and practicing the piano, which resulted in her today.
She pushed herself to the limits and liked him so much, but why, he would always alienate her.
He wouldn"t even spare her a glance.
No, Chen Xinzi, you can"t admit defeat.
You have to let him see the difference between you and Lu Xingzhi.
You"re just not as beautiful as Lu Xing, but you are already regarded as the most temperamental and elegant pianist. You are an outstanding student who graduated from Hamandun Musical Academy.
Chen Xinzi cheered herself up and her confidence shot up again.
She went early at 6:30 just to wait for Huo Jinchen.
At eight o"clock, Huo Jinchen finally arrived.
Seeing that he didn"t bring Lu Xingzhi, she was even more relieved.
“San ge, you are here. I"ve been waiting for you.” Fang Chenze, as the largest shareholder and manager, welcomed him.
When Huo Jinchen came in, he swept a glance around, and all that should be there were really there.
“San ge, come and take a seat.” Fang Chenze greeted Huo Jinchen and ushered him in the best position.
Sitting next to him was Qin Shi Huai, and there was another spot reserved for Mo Jinyan, which is also one of Huo Jinchen"s friend. It was just that Chen Xinzi has already taken the spot.
Chen Xinzi smiled at Huo Jinchen shyly and greeted, "San ge."
“Hmm.” Huo Jinchen, as gentleman treated her as politely as could be.
Then as the natural counterpart, Chenze, said, “What are you doing standing so far away? Sit over here! Are you not going to toast me a drink?”
“Hmm? Fine, fine.” Since Huo Jinchen acquiesced, Fang Chenze naturally pa.s.sed him a gla.s.s of wine.
Chen Xinzi had to sit away a bit, feeling miserable to death, but still, she maintained her elegant smile.
The two toasted a drink, and some came over to say h.e.l.lo to Huo Jinchen, and after circling around, they also drank a few gla.s.ses.
“Jinchen, what about your little fiancée? Why didn"t you bring her out?” Qin Shi Huai quipped.
His voice was quite loud and many of the guests heard it. The private rooms instantly piped down, waiting to hear Huo Jinchen"s answer.
With Lu Xingzhi"s name in the conversation, Huo Jinchen smiled somewhat tenderly, “She is too young, I was afraid you"d bully her.”
“Your fiancée just swallowed a leopard, who"d have the audacity to bully her.” Qin Shi Huai intentionally played along with Huo Jinchen and also shot a warning towards ChenXinzi.
Many people might have been besotted by Chen Xinzi, but he isn"t one of them.
Thinking too highly of herself.
She may be blind to her merits, but not everyone is
However, he really has to admire Huo Jinchen"s vision. He managed to dig that Lu Xingzhi out, except for her young age, she is undoubtedly beyond compare.
