Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life-Chapter 939 - 928: The Villain Mom’s Baby
"Zixing, why does it seem like everyone is waiting for someone?" Xia Shian was still trying to figure out the situation in the banquet hall.
"You guessed right, everyone is indeed waiting for someone." Shen Zixing occasionally glanced towards the entrance, obviously very curious and expectant.
"Who has such a big face, that so many people are waiting for them?" Xia Shian was extremely surprised.
"It’s the CEO of a venture capital company."
"There are so many venture capital companies out there, what’s special about him?"
Speaking of which, even Shen Zixing was full of admiration: "It’s normal that you haven’t heard of his news. Although he is Chinese, he has always been in the United States. You know how exclusive that country is, yet during his studies, he had already conquered a part of Wall Street. In just five years, the stock transactions handled by him reached billions, earning him the title of a young prodigy in the stock market. His personal wealth is also something to be reckoned with, rumored to have reached this number, and you must understand he is only thirty-four years old."
Shen Zixing gestured a number with his hand, Xia Shian was amazed: "That impressive? Then he must have a very strong background!"
"No, that’s precisely because he’s just an orphan with no background, which makes him even more formidable. Recently, Han Jie and Li Hui’s company plans to go public, and they’ve heard of his title, so they invited him to do risk assessment and capital operations, because he rarely fails when he strikes, so everyone is curious."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion at the door, instantly attracting everyone’s attention, and they both looked that way.
But when they saw the people who came in, their eyes froze, then they looked at each other in disbelief.
When they saw the faces clearly, the bustling and noisy banquet seemed to come to a standstill, everyone was dumbstruck, marveling not for anything else, but because the high beauty of the pair of men and women caught their eyes.
"Dad, why is everyone silent." Only when a clear and tender child’s voice sounded did everyone come back to their senses, and then they all came over to greet.
"Is that cousin?" Looking at the woman in a black long dress with flaming red lips and incomparably glamorous, Xia Shian asked in disbelief.
Shen Zixing’s eyes darkened: "You are not mistaken, that is Ye Ran."
"So that venture capitalist is cousin’s boyfriend?"
"Not boyfriend. I heard that the venture capital boss named Huo Xian got married a year ago."
"Then that little girl is cousin’s stepdaughter?"
"Probably, but I heard that Huo Xian didn’t seem to have been married before."
"Illegitimate daughter? Isn’t his private life messy? Isn’t cousin living a hard life?" Xia Shian bit her lip, looking very worried.
"Perhaps." Shen Zixing somewhat unnaturally admitted, there were not many legends about Huo Xian he had heard of, but almost everyone spoke in a praising tone, talking about how sharp his vision was, how incisive his methods were. Undoubtedly, as a businessman, he was very successful.
And not only was he wealthy, but he was also very handsome, in many ways worth a better woman.
It’s not that Ye Ran is bad, but apart from her beauty, she really has nothing else. Besides, she is one way or another Xia Shian’s cousin, his former fiancée. If she’s living poorly, it makes them uncomfortable too. Being a stepmother is not easy, marrying Huo Xian probably only has the surface glamour.
However, Shen Zixing didn’t notice that his internal monologue, though seemingly considering Ye Ran, was actually belittling her and comparing himself to Huo Xian. He was unwilling to admit in his heart that Ye Ran could find a better man after leaving him.
While he was comparing in his mind, Ye Ran happened to look their way, just fleetingly looking, not even greeting before withdrawing her gaze, as if he were just a stranger.
Before Shen Zixing could react, Xia Shian was shocked: "Did cousin just look over here? Why didn’t she recognize us?"
"She must not dare." Han Jie unknowingly came beside them, speaking faintly.
"Xiao Jie, why do you say that?" Xia Shian frowned, "Didn’t we agree? The past is the past, I won’t care anymore."
Han Jie didn’t speak, as the kidnapping incident involving her and Li Hui had never been told to Xia Shian, so naturally, Xia Shian didn’t know about Ye Ran being violated. Truly unexpected, after all that happened, Ye Ran still had the face to marry someone like Huo Xian, who was Heaven’s Chosen Son, and dared to appear before them.
She couldn’t help but think gloatingly, perhaps Huo Xian didn’t know about Ye Ran’s dirty secrets, if he knew, he certainly wouldn’t marry. Which successful person likes someone with a stain?
But this matter could indeed be used, if Ye Ran wanted to continue being Mrs. Huo, she must keep the secret, so she must persuade Huo Xian to invest in her and Li Hui’s company, originally she didn’t know how to please Huo Xian, unexpectedly everything came so easily.
"Xiao Jie, what did you mean just now saying cousin didn’t dare recognize us?" Xia Shian pursued.
Han Jie replied vaguely: "Didn’t she frame you before? She once became a joke in the circle, naturally, she doesn’t dare come to recognize us."
"I’ve already forgiven cousin for those things." Xia Shian generously said, "Let’s go over there and ask cousin how she’s been these years."
A group of people slowly walked forward, each carrying complicated thoughts, although the distance was too far to see clearly earlier, walking closer now, they were even more stunned by Ye Ran’s beauty.
No matter when, no matter what foolish things she might have done, the title of the biggest beauty in the circle never changed, her facial features and figure were as if favored by God.
Today she wore a black form-fitting long dress, though the design was conservative, even showing only half an arm, yet that half arm was so white that it dazzled the eyes, and the draping fabric highlighted her curvaceous figure, emanating an aura of restraint.
No one doubted Shen Zixing’s true love for Xia Shian stemmed from Xia Shian’s beauty being too far apart from Ye Ran.
Actually, Xia Shian wasn’t bad, it’s just that compared to Ye Ran she seemed bland, like simple porridge compared to a grand feast.
Today, Ye Ran’s flaming red lips further accentuated her queen-like presence, while white-dressed Xia Shian seemed like the girl next door.
Involuntarily, although aware that Shen Zixing loved her, Xia Shian still felt threatened, and gripped Shen Zixing’s hand tightly, only relaxing slightly when his hand held hers back.
