Chapter 272: Strange News

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation      Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

At this moment, Gu Yun was looking forward to Hai Tang’s news. When he saw Hai Tang take the initiative to send him a message, the annoyance in Gu Yun’s heart lessened by half.

However, just as Gu Yun was happily reading Hai Tang’s message, he learned that Hai Tang would not be home for dinner.

Gu Yun was slightly stunned. His mood, which had recovered because of Hai Tang’s message, instantly sank again.

“Are you going to accompany him to the banquet?” he asked as if he already knew the answer.

Looking at the ingredients that were originally planned to make a table full of sumptuous dishes, Gu Yun’s heart was filled with disappointment and helplessness, but he did not express these emotions through text messages. Therefore, Hai Tang, who was on the other end of the phone, did not notice Gu Yun’s mood and simply replied,[Mm.]

Looking at Hai Tang’s one-word message, Gu Yun’s heart sank even more.

He had clearly made it clear to Hai Tang that he could arrange for a female companion for the Dharma Cultivator’s banquet. He had also told Hai Tang that he hoped she would go home and have dinner with him, but Hai Tang still chose to accompany the Dharma Cultivator.

It was as if in Hai Tang’s heart, magic cultivators were far more important than him.

This was the first time Gu Yun felt a clear sense of jealousy after marrying Hai Tang.

Back then, Yu Heng did not give Gu Yun such a big sense of crisis because ever since Hai Tang fell out with Yu Heng, she no longer chose or sided with Yu Heng.

But this time, between him and the magic cultivator, Hai Tang seemed to have chosen the magic cultivator.

Gu Yun suddenly understood what the middle-aged directors in the company were talking about.

He stood rooted to the ground for a long time before he raised his finger and replied with mixed feelings,[Then take good care of him. You don’t have to worry about me.]

If Gu Song, who knew Gu Yun’s feelings for Hai Tang, was here, he would definitely mock Gu Yun.” Brother, your jealousy is almost spilling out of the screen. You’re deliberately saying things that you don’t mean. What if sister-in-law doesn’t understand what you mean and takes it seriously?”

However, Hai Tang, who received Gu Yun’s message, did not understand.

She even felt that Gu Yun’s words were a little strange and did not know how to reply. Therefore, she did not continue Gu Yun’s message and turned to look for Assistant He to understand the situation.

Tonight’s banquet was hosted by Song Jianzhang, the president of Huaxing Group, a subsidiary of the Song Group, to celebrate his precious daughter’s adult birthday.

Although this was a birthday party for the daughter of a wealthy family on the surface, its actual purpose was to facilitate the socializing of young men and women in the upper class and to expand the interests of the wealthy families. It was a blind date and friendship meeting between the wealthy families.

Other than the children of wealthy families under the age of 30, there was also a group of young celebrities and actors who were specially invited.

They were also allowed to enter the social circles of the wealthy families, and

Fa Xiu was one of them.

However, anyone who was well-informed in the circle of wealthy families knew that the female lead of this banquet, Song Lin, had been in love with Dharma cultivators since she was fourteen.

This time, he had specially invited the Dharma Cultivator to attend the banquet because he was preparing to profess his love to the Dharma Cultivator in a high-profile manner during the coming-of-age ceremony.

However, the Dharma Cultivator suddenly announced that he had a fiancée, which dealt a big blow to Song Lin.

The little princess, who had always been pampered and raised, had never suffered in love before. The actions of the Dharma Cultivator had completely disgraced her.

Therefore, Song Lin had also deliberately made harsh remarks, demanding that the Dharma Cultivator must bring his so-called fiancée to the banquet. Otherwise, she would use the Song family’s power to ban the Dharma

Cultivator.

However, Hai Tang did not know the inside story. She had only agreed to help Fa Xiu out of good intentions and be his banquet companion, so she did not expect what would happen that night.

Night fell, and the lights were lit.

Song Lin’s coming-of-age ceremony was held as scheduled. The entire hotel that was used to hold the banquet was decorated like a fairy tale. The exterior was even dressed in the style of a castle. It was enough to show how much Song Jian spoiled his daughter, Song Lin.

Dressed in a black suit, the Dharma Cultivator looked handsome and dashing.

Hai Tang, on the other hand, was wearing a red evening gown and a small black top hat. The top hat was connected to a black veil that was enough to cover her face. Under the shadow, she looked even more beautiful.

As soon as she got out of the car, Hai Tang looked up at the luxurious exterior of the hotel and was shocked by the Song family’s wealth.

In S City, in terms of family background and status, Gu Yun’s Gu family was number one, while the Song family and the other aristocratic families were number two..
