Coincidentally, some of them had visited Lin Xiaowan’s dessert shop two days ago.

“My wife loves the dessert shop a lot. She always goes there for afternoon tea with her friends.”

Huo Cheng said with a smile, “It’s much more convenient for us. We can eat all kinds of cakes and desserts that Xiaowan makes herself. Many of them are not for sale.”

Huo Cheng sounded a little like he was bragging just like a parent who was proud of his child.

Another person asked, “How come Second Mrs. Huo hasn’t been going to the shop recently?”

“It’s something that just happened. She’s been busy with other things recently.” “Busy with other things? 1 heard that she won an art competition recently.”

“I wonder when President Huo and the young lady got together? It seems very sudden. Which family is she from?”

The title ‘President Huo’ was used exclusively for Huo Zheng since he managed the entire group. On the other hand, Huo Cheng, who was a prominent figure in the political world, was usually addressed as Mr. Huo.

“The Huo family never cares about these things. We’ve known Xiaowan for a long time now. She’s not a young lady from a prestigious family; she’s only from an ordinary family. In the end, everyone’s the same after all. We’re all ordinary people from ordinary families.”

In fact, Huo Cheng’s words were very modest. If the Huo family was considered ordinary, then what about ordinary people?

Nonetheless, everyone could see that Lin Xiaowan was extremely favored by the Huo family.

In the huge changing room upstairs.

Qiao You’an knocked on the door.

“Are you done changing, Xiaowan?”

Lin Xiaowan hurriedly pushed the man next to her away and replied, “Sister-in-law, I’m done.”

Qiao You’an walked into the room. She was wearing a champagne-colored slim-fitting dress. She looked like an elegant and intellectual beauty.

Lin Xiaowan was instantly mesmerized by Qiao You’an. She exclaimed, “Wow! Sister-in-law, you look extremely beautiful!”

“What a sweet mouth,” Qiao You’an said with a smile, “Gu Yuwu is here. She’s talking to President Cheng of Chenghong Technology on the balcony. She was worried you wouldn’t be able to find her later so she sent me here to tell you about this.”

Lin Xiaowan held Qiao You’an’s arm and said, “Okay. By the way, what should I do later? Is it enough for me to just show my face?”

“Yes. I was worried you’d feel uncomfortable. Let Huo Cheng and Huo Zheng deal with it. You don’t have to worry about this.”

The media was not invited to the banquet, after all.

During the banquet, Lin Xiaowan held Huo Zheng’s hand the entire time. Occasionally, when they spoke, he would lower his head slightly and look at her with a gentle expression on his face. Based on his attitude, many things were obvious.

Lin Xiaowan could feel many people’s eyes on her. She was a little reserved, but she was not as afraid of being stared at as before. After a short while, she lifted her dress slightly and went to the balcony to look for Gu Yuwu. After chatting for a while, she sent someone to tell Huo Zheng that she and the others were going to see Little Chestnut.

Since the women were together, Huo Zheng did not want to disturb them. He only said to the employee in a low voice, “Get the kitchen to prepare some light snacks and send them over.”

Lin Xiaowan did not eat much, and he was worried she would be hungry.

Cheng Ruitong had seen videos of Little Chestnut, and this was her first time meeting it. For this reason, she was shocked when she saw the large furball.

“I thought it was quite big when I saw it in the videos. However, it’s even bigger than 1 imagined.”

Little Chestnut’s temperament was quite good. It was cute and not afraid of strangers at all. It circled the few of them curiously and even took its toys over to play with them. Its huge fluffy tail pointed up, looking like a feather duster.

Gu Yuwu chuckled. “It’s so soft!”

Lin Xiaowan said, “It’s suspected that Little Chestnut’s father is a Maine Coon. That’s why she’s so big.”

In fact, Little Chestnut looked big because of its fluffy fur as well. Its fur was soft and felt extremely good to the touch. Lin Xiaowan particularly liked hugging Little Chestnut when she was watching movies, stroking it endlessly.

After a while, Gu Yuwu asked Lin Xiaowan if she had been on Speaker recently. Lin Xiaowan shook her head slightly and said, “There’s been a lot of things going on recently. I’ll be moving to Xilin Imperial Garden soon. I’ve been decorating Little Chestnut’s room recently. 1 saw a lot of cat supplies, and 1 really like all of them.”

The house in Xilin Imperial Garden was big. An entire floor had been cleared out to be used as Little Chestnut’s room. It even came with a few rooms. Lin Xiaowan had also hired a groomer to come over regularly to groom Little Chestnut.

After saying that, Lin Xiaowan asked, “Did those nonsense comments affect you?”

Cheng Ruitong was the president of a company, after all. She had so many things to do every day that she wished she could clone herself. Apart from work matters, she rarely paid attention to other matters. As she teased Little Chestnut, she asked, “What nonsense comments?”

Gu Yuwu scoffed disdainfully before she said, “Your family worked fast. When 1 woke up, nothing was left. However, one of my employees took screenshots so 1 scolded them one by one.”

After that, Gu Yuwu briefly explained that she was accused of being a ‘pimp’ and that she was looking for a sugar daddy for Lin Xiaowan. She also told about how some people actually believed these ridiculous and groundless accusations.

“I really hate people who spout nonsense like this. It’s not just those netizens, but I hate people who are like this in real life as well,” Lin Xiaowan said.

Back when she was staying with her grandmother, the old women in the neighborhood loved to gossip the most. Her life at that time was not peaceful, and she could not even explain herself. For this reason, she hated people who made up ridiculous rumors the most.

Although the matter was already over, Lin Xiaowan puffed her cheeks up and said sullenly, “I’m still angry whenever I think about it. I’m going to post a photo after this!”

With an idea in her mind, Lin Xiaowan took a photo of Gu Yuwu and Cheng Ruitong playing with Little Chestnut. She also asked Gu Yuwu to take a photo of her as well. She deliberately hid their faces. After that, she posted the few photos on Speaker.

‘Hmph, since those evil people like to speculate so much, then let them speculate! I won’t say who is in these photos…’ Lin Xiaowan thought to herself smugly. Even if the others could guess that one of the people in the photos was Gu Yuwu, they definitely would not be able to guess that Cheng Ruitong was also in the photos..
