Chapter 22: Banquet
"This one, this one, and that yellow one, we don't want. Wrap the rest up." Su Mei waved her hand and bought all the clothes and shoes that had been tried on.
"Mom, are we going home?" In the afternoon, Gu Zi went from a rich young master to a silly son of a landlord. He had never wanted to go home so badly to end this torture.
But the next second, he saw Su Mei shake her head. "Let's go buy jewelry first."
Gu Lian and Gu Zi wanted to cry but had no tears. They could only follow behind Su Mei. Their dejected backs were like two stray dogs that had been thrown out by their owners.
A woman's stamina was indeed a mystery!
By the time Mo Yu woke up and changed back into her body, the three of them had already returned to the villa. The makeup artist and stylist were also done.
"Miss, you're awake! Look, how beautiful!" The makeup artist looked at his 'masterpiece' in satisfaction.
The entire makeup process went very smoothly. The guest changed her clothes and sat on the chair to sleep. He could do whatever he wanted. Now that he had finished putting on her makeup, she just woke up. It was very easy.
The Shen family's banquet was booked at a five-star hotel in the city center. Not only did they decorate the interior, but they also set up a hundred-meter red carpet outside the hotel. A group of reporters and media stood there, waiting to take photos.
Mo Xue was changing her clothes and putting on makeup. She thought about how she was going to overwhelm everyone tonight. Meanwhile, the reporters waiting outside were discussing another matter.
"Have you heard? Many brain experts suddenly bought plane tickets arriving here."
"I know. Someone picked them up as soon as they left the airport. There are still cars waiting at the airport. Could it be that the person from the Gu family is about to wake up?"
"That's possible. Didn't Mrs. Gu take the Madam of the Gu family shopping in the afternoon? He's most likely awake."
"I think so too. Otherwise, who would be in the mood to shop?"
…
"Hubby, are you awake?"
"Hubby?"
Mo Yu was very curious about what happened in the afternoon that made Gu Lian sleep until now. She couldn't help but worry that Gu Lian wouldn't wake up again!
It was not until she got into the car and was about to reach the hotel that she heard Gu Lian's response.
"Hmm… Hmm?"
Mo Yu heaved a long sigh of relief. At least he was not dead.
Mo Xue held her brother Shen Fang's arm and greeted the guests with a smile.
She was wearing a pink off-shoulder gown, and her hair was wavy. She had a little dolphin hairpin on her head playfully, like an unworldly little princess. She accepted everyone's praise and glanced at the end of the red carpet from time to time.
According to what that person had told her, Mo Yu would wear a very cheap pink gauze dress, and the hair clip on her head was also made of rhinestones. They were two daughters who had accidentally been switched at birth. When they first released this news, it caused a lot of discussion. When they stood together today to take a photo, it would be the public execution venue!
She had also arranged for a talent performance. At that time, she would stand on the stage and play the violin. Then, she would invite Mo Yu up and let her show what she could do. Mo Yu had grown up in the countryside. Even her Mandarin was not standard, so she naturally did not know anything.
At that time, the Gu family would realize that their daughter-in-law was an ugly duckling. In the future, they would also know that Mo Yu had abused Gu Lian. And she was the high and mighty Swan Princess, an existence that everyone could only dream of!
Mo Xue greeted everyone with a sweet smile. The next second, she heard exclamations from the other end of the red carpet.
Gu Zi was still young after all. He recovered after sleeping for two hours at home. He excitedly expressed that he wanted to accompany Mo Yu to the banquet to support her.
Su Mei thought about it and realized that people usually came in pairs for such occasions, and those rich playboys always mocked Mo Yu for coming from the countryside. Naturally, they were unwilling to go with her, so she might as well let Gu Zi accompany her. Mo Yu did not mind having a companion, so she agreed.
"Sister-in-law, don't move later. I'll get out of the car and open the door for you. Then, you'll come out, just like in the movies! Let's blind everyone together! We'll be the most beautiful duo in the venue! Moreover, the person controlling the lights tonight happens to be my friend. I sent him a message and said that when you get out of the car, he'll give you a spotlight! You'll be the most dazzling existence!" Gu Zi planned excitedly, and Mo Yu agreed quite cooperatively.
Therefore, when the two of them appeared, everyone was indeed amazed.
