Chapter 1053
1053 A play within a play (1)
The banquet was held in the banquet hall of the most famous five-star hotel. It was luxurious and high-profile. The guests who came and went were all dressed in gorgeous clothes and exuded an air of elegance.
In the banquet hall, the guests talked and laughed, toasting each other. Melodious music played in their ears and the lights were dazzling.
After su Wanwan successfully entered the banquet hall, she lifted her skirt and walked to the corner. Her eyes couldn’t help but shuttle through the crowd, hoping to see that familiar figure.
People came and went. Wherever su Wanwan’s eyes met, there were handsome men and beautiful women with blond hair and blue eyes. There were no familiar Asian faces. PEI Munian was not here, and ning Jingting was not here either.
Su Wanwan walked to the dining table, picked up a glass of champagne, and took a sip. Someone came over to strike up a conversation with her, but she politely refused. When she took the champagne and wanted to go back to the corner, she took two steps and inadvertently saw the entrance of the banquet hall. The door was pushed open and that tall and straight figure was imprinted in her eyes little by little.
Familiar eyes, familiar face, familiar figure, he was finally standing in front of her.
Su Wanwan’s Black eyes looked at the figure in front of her in a daze. She was no longer as weak and pale as she was that day. Her figure was a little thin, but her spirit was quite good. She was as handsome as ever and the faint smile on her lips was breathtaking.
Su Wanwan’s heart couldn’t help but thump, thump, thump.
After nearly two months and nearly 60 days of worry and anxiety, she could finally put her heart at ease. He was still fine and did not leave her.
Su Wanwan subconsciously wanted to walk towards him, but her eyes touched his arm and Mrs. PEI, who was standing beside him, and her footsteps couldn’t help but stop.
She was not afraid of Mrs. PEI, but she did not want to have a direct conflict with her. PEI Munian would only be put in a difficult position. He had just recovered from his injuries, and she did not want to trouble him again.
Since she had already seen him here, he wouldn’t be with Mrs. PEI the entire night. She could just wait until he was alone before going up.
As su Wanwan thought about it, she slowly stepped back and retreated from the corner. She even used the pillar as a cover to avoid Mrs. PEI from seeing her. However, her gaze was closely following PEI Munian’s figure, her eyes almost unblinking.
With the arrival of Mrs. PEI and PEI Munian, many people came forward to greet them. The PEI family had a branch in the United States, and their previous cooperation with the Gu family was also the focus of attention.
It was said that PEI Munian was in a car accident, and this incident affected the stock prices of companies in the United States. Everyone was very concerned about his injury, and now that they saw that he was safe and sound, their hearts settled down.
The crowd unconsciously opened up a path. Ning Jingting was holding her father’s hand and slowly walking towards PEI Munian.
She was especially beautiful today. Her white dress made her look even paler, and her skin was as smooth as cream. Under the light, she looked like an angel who had descended from the sky. There was a faint smile on her lips, and her eyes that were looking at PEI Munian were filled with a gentle light.
“Auntie, Munian, you’re here.” Ning Jingting’s gaze swept past Madam PEI and then landed on PEI Munian. She asked with concern, ” “Mu Nian, how’s your body? Can you hold on?”
Mrs. PEI chuckled. look, it’s your birthday today. We haven’t even had the chance to wish you a Happy Birthday, but you’re concerned about Munian’s injury first. How thoughtful of you.
