Looking at Mr. Huo's inquiring eyes, the smile on Shu Yi's face froze, and he suddenly felt a little at a loss.

what's the situation?

Isn't she the person that Mr. Huo wants to introduce solemnly?

Are there others?

She came up early?

The guests burst into laughter. Seeing the scene before them, everyone could see Shu Yi's reckless behavior.

"Hahaha……"

"Whose lady is this? She has no manners or manners, it's so embarrassing."

"She seems to be Song Mingkang's stepdaughter."

Song Mingkang was also among the guests. When he heard someone mention his name, he was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole in the ground and hide away immediately.

Shu Yi quickly calmed down, ignored the mocking looks from everyone, and continued to walk to Mr. Huo.

Even though she came up early, it was a fact that Mr. Huo wanted to adopt her as his granddaughter, it was just a matter of earlier or later.

With so many people looking at her now, if she turned around and left, she would become the laughing stock of the night.

Shu Yi moved the corners of her lips and showed a sweet smile to Mr. Huo, "Grandpa Huo, it's the same if I come up now."

She deliberately called him Grandpa Huo to remind him.

She thought that Mr. Huo would know what to do when he saw her standing there so awkwardly.

Hearing Shu Yi addressing Mr. Huo like that, the guests looked surprised.

"What is her relationship with Mr. Huo?"

"I don't know. I haven't heard that Mr. Huo has a new goddaughter."

Mr. Huo smiled faintly, "Miss Shu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't yell at people."

Shu Yi was stunned, his pupils slightly dilated, and he looked at Mr. Huo in disbelief.

Another burst of laughter came from below, this time even louder than before.

Everyone was talking to each other, it was very lively.

Feeling the various looks from everyone, Shu Yi felt as if her cheeks were burning.

Her slightly opened lips trembled, "Grandpa Huo, didn't we agree on this?"

Why the sudden backlash?

The guests' voices were so loud that they drowned out Shu Yi's voice.

Shu Yi stood there stiffly, looking at the almost indifferent calm in Mr. Huo's eyes, and finally reacted.

Mr. Huo just changed his mind!

Suddenly realizing something, she turned abruptly to look at the guests.

Looking through the crowd, I saw Shi Ye and Gu Jinlan sitting on high stools at the back.

Shi Ye still had a stern look on his face, and there was no emotion in his eyes as he looked at her.

Gu Jinlan, who was standing next to him, had one arm around his chest and the other gently shaking a red wine glass, as if he was watching a show.

It's them!

They must have communicated with Mr. Huo in advance, so Mr. Huo changed his mind!

Shu Yi held up the hem of her skirt with great force, her heart boiling with anger and her eyes turned red.

Suddenly, a guest shouted, "Don't try to make friends here. Come down quickly. We are still waiting for Mr. Huo to introduce important people."

"That's right, stop wasting our time!"

Seeing that everyone was urging Shu Yi to leave quickly, Shu Zhengzhe shook his head in embarrassment, "I didn't expect that she would lie to us like this just to trick us into coming here! What on earth does she want to do?"

Shu He next to him frowned slightly and looked at Shu Yi with complicated eyes, "Sister wouldn't lie to us to come here... How could this happen?"

Although her relationship with her sister can no longer go back to the way it was before and their values ​​are different, she still hopes that her sister can live a good life.

At this moment, Shu He felt very uncomfortable seeing Shu Yi standing there like a clown.

After all, they were born of the same father and mother and had a very good relationship since childhood.

Back then, it was indeed because she was unwilling to leave the imperial capital that my sister followed my mother to Haicheng.

If she had been the one who came to Haicheng back then, perhaps the fate of the two sisters would not be what it is now.

Here, Yun Luoxi looked at Shu Yi's uneasy look and smiled happily:

"I told you, Shu Yi has no outstanding qualities at all, how could Mr. Huo value her? Could it be that she dreamed last night that Mr. Huo wanted to adopt her as his granddaughter?"

Zhao Jingchuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "No, it was Mr. Huo who changed his mind at the last minute."

He and Shu Yi have known each other since childhood. Although Shu Yi has changed beyond recognition now, he knows that Shu Yi is not a real fool, but just a paranoid person.

It is impossible for Shu Yi to fabricate her relationship with Mr. Huo just to show off.

And when Shu Yi showed off to them, she looked so proud and it didn't seem like she was lying.

Yun Luoxi was puzzled. "But a man like Mr. Huo should keep his word. Why would he suddenly change his mind?"

Zhao Jingchuan turned around and looked at Shi Ye and Gu Jinlan.

Seeing that Shi Ye exuded a strategic attitude, "It seems that Aye talked to Mr. Huo."

"Brother Ye?" Yun Luoxi looked back at Shi Ye in surprise and suddenly smiled. "It has to be Brother Ye. No one else has the ability to make Mr. Huo go back on his word."

"He is indeed a ruthless man." Zhao Jingchuan nodded in approval, "No wonder he could tolerate Shu Yi's boasting in front of him before. It turns out he was waiting here."

This method is worthy of being the son-in-law of the Zhao family.

In the middle of the hall, seeing Shu Yi still standing still, Mr. Huo made a gesture of invitation to Shu Yi in a very gentlemanly manner, but there was a hint of impatience in his eyes.

In the morning, Lan Tian replied to his email and told him about Shu Yi.

He was very angry. He didn't expect Shu Yi to deceive him and want to use him to achieve her goals.

At that time, he wanted to disqualify Shu Yi from attending his housewarming party, but Lan Tian asked him to let Shu Yi continue to attend the dinner and pretend that he knew nothing.

Being able to tolerate someone like Shu Yi standing in his new house was a gift to Lan Tian.

Seeing Shu Yi approaching him so shamelessly, he could no longer bear it and just wanted Shu Yi to disappear from his house as soon as possible.

Shu Yi still stood there motionless, his dazed eyes sweeping across the faces of the guests watching.

Those mocking faces were like slaps in her face, burning with pain.

She felt like she was suffocating.

She had been looking forward to this moment with great joy since last night.

She thought that when she walked to Mr. Huo's side, she would become the center of attention.

She thought her life finally saw the light of day.

I didn't expect it to be like this...

It's like being stripped naked and becoming the target of public criticism. It's so humiliating.

Shu Yi took a few deep breaths. Her forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and her hands that were holding the hem of her skirt were trembling slightly.

She had come this far, and she would never run away in embarrassment facing mocking eyes and voices.

Gritting her teeth, she took a deep breath and said loudly, "Everyone, please be quiet. Please allow me to borrow Mr. Huo's new house to announce an important matter!"

Since Mr. Huo no longer recognizes her, he will definitely not help her announce that she is Shi Xingran's biological mother.

All those present tonight are important figures. Even if Mr. Huo does not help her, as long as she makes this matter public, the Shi family will still bear the pressure of public opinion!

This is such a rare opportunity, no matter how embarrassing it is, she has to stand here and speak out!
