Chapter 703: Chapter 702: 702, at such an old age but still showing off your love life every day

Next, the host begins to introduce the next guest’s entrance.

Due to the Gu Family’s influence in the media industry, many celebrities were invited to the event today, including some very popular ones, all of whom are basically here for the esteemed Gu Huai’an, who is the CEO of Huanyu Media.

At that moment, Gu Huai’an was sitting at the main table in the middle, and those seated next to him should be today’s honored guests, one of whom was Yan Shunhua.

The two seemingly chatted, although their expressions remained indifferent, it was evident from their ongoing conversations.

So, Gu Huai’an also knew Yan Shunhua?

As Su Wanwan observed these two, her mind began to wander.

For a media tycoon like Gu Huai’an, who’d seen all kinds of beauties in the entertainment industry, and also being a man of good conditions, how picky would he be about women?

Among Huo Jingshen’s brothers, Chu Xiuhuang had already settled with Shi Huan, and the others were still young, except for Gu Huai’an who, reaching his thirties, was still embroiled in numerous scandals.

If age wasn’t an issue, Yan Shunhua seemed to be quite a match for him. A talented female director and a media magnate; their picture together was indeed pleasing to the eye…

Suddenly, her palm was pinched.

“Ouch!”

Turning her head, Su Wanwan saw that Huo Jingshen was looking at her.

His eyebrows were raised, his lips were tightly pressed, and he was giving her a reproachful look from the corner of his eyes.

“What are you looking at? You look like your eyes are about to pop out.”

Su Wanwan glared at him, “I should be the one asking why you’re pinching me?”

Looking at her palm, it was red from the pinch!

She glared at him again without hesitation.

This damn man, always either pinching or tweaking her, doesn’t he know it hurts?

“Does it hurt?” Huo Jingshen lifted his hand, “Let me rub it for you, baby.”

“Get lost!”

Huo Jingshen: “…”

This girl.

This time, he reached out and pinched her cheek, “Who are you telling to get lost, huh? Repeat it for me.”

In pain, Su Wanwan pleaded, “Don’t pinch me, please…”

“Will you dare to tell your husband to get lost again?”

“No, no more, just please let go… Let go, please!” Su Wanwan felt embarrassed; Gu Shuhan from across the table was watching.

Huo Jingshen finally released her, “Behave.”

Su Wanwan: “…”

What the hell.

Who is the one misbehaving here?

Mingzhu couldn’t help but laugh, “Shuhan, don’t mind them. You’ll get used to it once you marry Zhexi. This couple’s newlywed sweetness means they’re always affectionate.”

Her words made both women at the table blush.

As for the men.@@novelbin@@

Huo Jingshen bit his thin lips, smiling softly but freely.

Huo Zhexi simply looked away.

What a spectacle!

A couple of grown men still spreading their sweetness daily, not feeling embarrassed at all!

Gu Shuhan asked with a laugh, “What does my sister-in-law do for a living?”

Mingzhu introduced, “Wanwan is still studying. I believe she’s in her third year now and will graduate soon.”

“Really?” Gu Shuhan turned to Su Wanwan, “What’s your major, sister-in-law?”

“Media and Communications Studies.”

“What a coincidence! That was my major too,” exclaimed Gu Shuhan warmly, “But I’ve already graduated. Which school are you at?”

“Nancheng University.”

“Wow, that’s such a coincidence! I’m also a graduate from Nancheng University’s Communication Studies department. Technically, you could say you’re my junior.”

“Really?” Su Wanwan felt strange.

Another woman older than her but calling her sister-in-law?

“I’m twenty-three this year,” Gu Shuhan said, “I work at my seventh uncle’s company.”

Seventh uncle? Gu Huai’an?

Su Wanwan couldn’t help but want to laugh.

Gu Huai’an was currently twenty-eight, but by virtue of his seniority in the Gu Family, he was clearly taking advantage of others.

“Sister Wanwan!”

Suddenly a clear voice came over.

Su Wanwan turned her head, “Haohao?”

It was Gu Haohao.

The fair and pretty young girl was wearing a white princess dress today. The skirt was layered one upon the other, fluffy and dreamy, making her look like a little angel who had fallen into the mortal world.

Because she was shorter, she looked like she was about eight or nine years old.

Gu Haohao came up to her, her small body affectionately leaning against Su Wanwan, she tilted her head and sweetly said, “That’s wonderful. I haven’t seen you in so long, I’ve missed you so much.”

Su Wanwan glanced behind her, there were several servants following as well.

Gu Haohao immediately turned her head to tell them, “Today, I want to sit and play with Sister Wanwan. You can all go back.”

The servants looked at Su Wanwan and cautiously persuaded:

“Miss, you can’t run around like that.”

“Master Qi said that you have to sit with the old lady today.”

“Miss…”

“Why are you all talking so much?” Gu Haohao frowned slightly, her hands firmly holding onto Su Wanwan’s hand, unwilling to let go, “I already said that I want to sit with Sister Wanwan.”

Gu Shuhan, who was aside, quickly spoke up, “It’s okay, I’m watching.”

The servant looked at Gu Shuhan, seemingly still worried.

Gu Haohao had already started to climb onto the seat.

However, the chair was indeed a bit high. She slipped unintentionally, and her legs gave way causing her to fall down again, almost stumbling.

A shriek caused the nearby servants to exclaim in surprise, rushing forward to help.

Su Wanwan also wanted to help her but the petite girl was unexpectedly heavy, and both of them were wearing elaborate dresses, which made it difficult for them to get up.

Huo Jingshen couldn’t just stand and watch any longer, he said in a low voice, “Let me do it.”

“Okay.” Su Wenwen let go of her hand.

However, as Huo Jingshen was about to reach out his hand…

“No!” Gu Haohao ducked backward, her tiny rosy face full of wariness, “Brother said men and women should not touch each other.”

The whole table was silent: “…”

Huo Jingshen was also silent: “…”

He sat back down, his handsome face dark, “Then you can slowly climb up yourself.”

Let’s see how long it takes for you to climb up.

Gu Haohao looked at him with her small face grimaced, “The chair here is too high, I was just careless.”

Su Wanwan covered her mouth, trying to stifle her laughter.

Gu Haohao looked around and suddenly extended her hand, “You come over, lift me up.”

Gu Shuhan, who was pointed out, looked astonished.

Mingzhu was also taken aback.

Then, Gu Shuhan got up and lifted the little girl onto the chair with all her might.

When Gu Haohao sat down, she didn’t pay attention, her black shoe rubbed against her evening dress several times.

Gu Shuhan didn’t complain, she only smoothed out her skirt once she was back in her seat.

“I want to eat the peaches on top.” Gu Haohao suddenly opened her mouth again.

Su Wanwan looked over, and then moved the cake plate with peaches from the middle of the table.

Gu Haohao began eating with a fork.

However, the little girl is somewhat picky, she only ate the fruit on top of the cake, once she was done, she tossed the fork aside.

Huo Zhexi couldn’t stand it anymore, “What kind of way is that to eat? What about the others?”

She was simply an ill-mannered brat!

Taking advantage of Gu Huai’an’s favoritism, she acted so capriciously.

Mingzhu quickly glared at her son.

Gu Haohao looked up and explained earnestly, “Brother said that cakes have very high calories and told me to eat less cake, otherwise I will become a chubby girl. I already had one cake just now, so now I can only eat the fruit on top.”

Brother?

Gu Huai’an?

Su Wanwan glanced at the next table.

As expected, Gu Huai’an was looking over this way.

Gu Haohao waved her small hand immediately, “Brother!”

Gu Huai’an smiled, his expression gentle and indulgent.

Su Wanwan: “…”

Fortunately, all the VIPs had already taken their seats, and after a burst of music from the stage, the auction officially began.

Su Wanwan was not interested in any of the auction items, she kept checking her phone, chatting with Gu Haohao or Mingzhu from time to time.

The auctioneer displayed many items on stage, with people shouting their bids.

Whoever the item ended up with, the auctioneer would introduce and compliment that person, thanking him for supporting charity causes. All the proceeds from the auction would go toward rebuilding disaster-stricken areas, etc.

However, with one item after another, Huo Jingshen remained silent.

Su Wanwan couldn’t help asking him in a low voice, “Aren’t you going to buy anything?”

She was specially invited to accompany him, and she thought he was going to make a big show like before.

However, Huo Jingshen asked her, “Do you like anything?”

Su Wanwan quickly shook her head.

She didn’t understand these auction items, and she certainly didn’t need any more jewelry.

Huo Jingshen had already bought her so much, but she hardly ever used any of it, so it was best not to waste money.

Huo Jingshen just smiled faintly and continued watching the stage.

At this point, the item on display was a jade bracelet. The host held up the microphone for introductions:

“This item up for auction is a jade bracelet generously donated by Ming Sicheng, the president of Ming Group, with a starting price of 1 million. This jade bracelet is strung together with 30 exquisite jade beads, each carved into lively and cheeky little pig shapes. Everyone can take a close look, each of the pigs has a different expression and posture, they are incredibly delicate and lifelike. However, at first glance it’s not very striking, the bracelet is simple yet luxurious, it’s understated and convenient to wear on a daily basis…”

Following the completion of the introduction, someone on the scene started bidding.

The starting price of the bracelet was not high, so at first, the bids were just increasing by tens of thousands, from 1 million, slowly increasing to 1.5 million.

The hostess in the cheongsam was holding the tray and continually showcasing it to the VIP seats upfront. When she came to Su Wanwan’s table, Huo Jingshen suddenly spoke, “Take a look to see if you like it.”

Before Su Wanwan could say anything, the hostess with a keen sense of sight had already brought the tray over.
