C3 Such a Sister

Jiang Yao, who was upstairs, was so shocked that she could not even speak when she heard the news. She carefully walked downstairs and asked, "Are you asking me to go?"

Zhuo Qianyun looked at Jiang Yao from the side and her heart was full of disdain. She twisted her waist and came to Jiang Zhentao's side to scold him. "You can't let my daughter suffer!"

Jiang Zhentao originally wanted to blame Jiang Yao for not paying attention to his order and leaving the room, but after thinking about it, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"Since the host of the banquet has personally invited you, Jiang Yao, you can go. Don't embarrass me!" Jiang Zhentao shouted in a deep voice. His words stunned everyone.

The H & J Corporation was very wealthy. Now was not the time to turn hostile. He did not want to lose their face at this time.

Zhuo Qianyun shook off Jiang Zhentao's hand and gave an ultimatum. "Unless you bring Yirou, Jiang Yao cannot think of going out today!"

Jiang Yirou gently pulled her mother's sleeves and looked harmless, but her gaze never left the old man.

The old man nodded slightly and agreed with her.

Jiang Yao pulled the box back from Jiang Yirou's hands and returned to the room to carefully dress up. The white evening dress made Jiang Yao look like a proud white swan. Her long curly eyelashes trembled slightly and her slightly powdered face looked like a fairy that did not eat the mortal world.

Jiang Yirou gritted her teeth and saw that the clothes that should have belonged to her were actually worn on this illegitimate daughter. She forced herself to calm down and turned around to walk to the car.

When the elder got into the car, he arranged for Jiang Yirou to be at the end of the convoy. This made Jiang Yirou so angry that she could not help jumping up and down. On second thought, as long as she was dazzling enough tonight, what kind of thing was Jiang Yao?

The convoy stopped at the entrance of the banquet hotel. The old man bowed and said respectfully, "Miss Jiang, please follow me to my room. My family's young master is waiting."

Jiang Yirou, who no one cared about, stared blankly at Jiang Yao's back as she left. It was as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.

Jiang Yao nervously followed the old man. Her palms, which were slightly sweating, subconsciously grabbed the corner of her clothes.

The wooden door of the room slowly opened and gentle lights poured out from inside. Jiang Yao took a deep breath and then carefully walked in with her skirt in hand.

The fitting handmade suit perfectly outlined Huo Weidong's figure. The light from the crystal chandelier seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light. His slightly raised eyebrows carried a fierce expression. His firm face made people feel at ease.

Jiang Yao blankly looked at the familiar face in front of her. A huge surprise covered the doubt in her heart as she said, "Mr Weidong, it's actually you! I was still wondering if you won't come back!"

She did not expect to really see Huo Weidong again. The feelings in Jiang Yao's heart seemed to be overflowing. Her wet eyes were like obsidian.

However, when these words fell into Huo Weidong's ears, they had a different feeling. A gloomy look flashed across her long and narrow eyes.

Huo Weidong extended his wide palm and invited Huo Weidong with the corner of his mouth. "Tonight, you will be my female companion. As for the conditions, you can name them at will."

Huo Weidong's voice was like thunder in Jiang Yao's ears. She looked dazedly at the man in front of her and hurriedly nodded.

Jiang Yao held Huo Weidong's arm and slowly walked to the red carpet in the hall. The spotlight landed on them the moment they appeared and instantly attracted countless gazes.

Huo Weidong's black hair complemented the black earrings on his right ear. It was as if he was announcing to the world that he was the king here. His expressionless face could only be seen when he faced Jiang Yao. His gentleness was enviable.

Jiang Yao, who was standing beside him, had fair skin. Her petite figure matched Huo Weidong like a couple.

The guests who came and went held their breaths, afraid that they would disturb the couple.

Jiang Yirou, who was standing alone in the corner, was so shocked that she could not say anything. Of course she knew who this man was, but she did not expect Huo Weidong to still be infatuated with Jiang Yao after such a long time.

The guests in the hall had the same thoughts as Jiang Yirou. The marriage between the Huo Family and Jiang family was also the focus of attention. But later on...

Jiang Yirou quickly tidied herself up and made sure that she would not be rude before she walked towards Huo Weidong.

As the host of the banquet, Huo Weidong was naturally the center of the encirclement. Jiang Yao quietly stood by his side and was very obedient.

"Weidong!" Jiang Yirou pretended to have just recognized him and said in surprise, "I didn't expect to see you again!"

Jiang Yirou's brows perfectly inherited Zhuo Qianyun's. Liu Yemei appeared to be gentle and generous.

The surrounding guests naturally recognized her identity. The lively atmosphere just now instantly became somewhat stiff.

Jiang Yirou acted as if she did not see it. She pretended to unintentionally push Jiang Yao away as she held Huo Weidong's arm and said gently, "You don't even know how long I looked for you after you left! Why didn't you greet me when you came back this time?"

Jiang Yao who was at the side staggered and barely managed to stand still. She was just about to speak but was stopped by Huo Weidong.

Huo Weidong opened Jiang Yirou's fingers in disgust and used paper to wipe the place Jiang Yirou touched as if it was stained with something dirty. He held Jiang Yao's hand as if he was declaring sovereignty. "Do you want to take a break?"

Jiang Yirou was slapped in front of everyone, so she naturally could not keep her face. But in front of so many people, if she were to get angry, then her previous act would be in vain!

Jiang Yao nodded her head like a little bird and allowed Huo Weidong to lead her through the crowd.

Huo Weidong's aura stopped those who wanted to get close to Jiang Yao. He even personally fed Jiang Yao pieces of pastries. His movements were gentle as if he was treating a rare treasure.

This made everyone guess whether the two families were going to remarry. After all, the Huo family had fallen into decline for so long. Now that Huo Weidong had returned, perhaps it was because of Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yirou, who had been forgotten in the corner, had her nails dug deep into her flesh and did not know it. Her eyes were cold as she looked at her beloved "sister.

Huo Weidong's slender fingers gently wiped the pastries at the corner of Jiang Yao's mouth. Jiang Yao's face immediately turned red and made people want to take a bite.

"I... I can do it myself." Jiang Yao stuttered as she spoke. She felt the temperature in the hall suddenly rise, as if even the air she exhaled was scorching hot.

The phone in her handbag suddenly vibrated, causing the ambiguous atmosphere between the two to disappear without a trace. Jiang Yao hurriedly took out her phone. The familiar name on the message made her heart tremble.

She found an excuse and hurriedly ran to the second floor. Her sister said that she had to tell her in private if she had any objections. It was also about Huo Weidong. This could not help but make Jiang Yao lose her soul.

Unlike the lively and noisy banquet hall below, the guest lounge on the second floor was almost empty. It was a good place to talk.

Jiang Yirou, who was wearing a pink cheongsam embroidered with silk, casually tied her hair behind her head. She lazily sat on the soft sofa and gently shook the red wine in her hand. Even Jiang Yao Chengtian could not help but be attracted by this older sister of hers when he saw her.

"Elder sister..." Jiang Yao slightly held her breath. She had clearly seen Huo Weidong's actions earlier.

Jiang Yirou looked at the expensive evening dress on Jiang Yao's body. Jealousy disappeared in an instant. She slowly stood up from the sofa and walked in front of Jiang Yao. Her bright red lips said viciously, "I'm warning you, you better leave now. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that you will not make a fool of yourself like last time."

Jiang Yao's face instantly turned pale. She knew that this was all Jiang Yirou's doing!

"What if I don't leave?"

Jiang Yao rarely asked back. Jiang Yirou's expression froze and then she said fiercely. "Who do you think you are? You are not in the limelight yet you always embarrass your father! I am the real young lady of the Jiang family!"

Jiang Yirou had always looked down on Jiang Yao. At this moment, she looked at her younger sister's submissive manner and her heart was full of disgust.

"My body also has father's blood. Most importantly, I am the female companion that was invited today. Older sister is just a foil."

Jiang Yao straightened her neck and refuted. She always felt that there was no need for the family to make such an ugly scene. Now it seemed that if she did not fight for some things, she would really be far away from her!

Jiang Yirou gritted her teeth and looked at Jiang Yao who was completely different from usual. The handbag inlaid with white pearls in her hands pretended to be accidentally thrown at Jiang Yao's feet.

"Ah -"

The heavy handbag smashed onto Jiang Yao's feet without any warning. Tears instantly flowed out of her eyes.

"I'm really sorry, little sister." Jiang Yirou pretended to be surprised but could not hide the smile on her face, "You just stay here well!"

As she spoke, she swaggered out of the room.

Jiang Yao rubbed her swollen feet and soon heard the door to the lounge open again. The young assistant respectfully said, "Miss Jiang, young master invites you to leave."

Jiang Yao was helpless and did not want to embarrass Huo Weidong at this time. She could only bear the pain and slowly walked downstairs. Huo Weidong's eyes turned ugly when he saw Jiang Yao limping. The people around could clearly feel his unhappiness and subconsciously took two steps away.

Jiang Yao pulled the corner of her mouth and pretended to be fine beside Huo Weidong.

"Are you hurt?" Huo Weidong lowered his head and whispered into Jiang Yao's ear. His warm breath landed on her neck and made Jiang Yao panic.

"It's nothing. I just accidentally fell!" Jiang Yao raised her big smile and showed Huo Weidong that she was fine.

She could not say it was her sister who did it, could she?

"Jiang Yao!" Jiang Yirou pretended to have just found out and took two steps back with her hands covering her mouth. She said exaggeratedly, "Your foot is injured? I will take you to rest!"

Jiang Yirou naturally had her own plans in her heart. She just did not expect that there would be a Cheng Biting King along the way.

"No need." Jiang Yao, who was just about to reject, was snatched away by Huo Weidong before she could say anything. In the next second, she was lifted up by the princess in the air by Huo Weidong. The lively banquet was interrupted by his actions.

"Stop the banquet." Huo Weidong ordered his assistant to calm the guests. Then, he left without caring about Jiang Yao stopping him.

Jiang Yirou did not expect things to develop like this. Her delicate makeup instantly became distorted.
