Lin Wanwan thought that this funny man was quite interesting and wanted to tease right along with him . However, due to the occasion, she could only nod in a reserved manner .
"Of course I remember . You're so handsome . It would be difficult for me to forget even if I wanted to . "
Hearing her words, Mo Chen reached out his hand, wanting to pull her closer .
At that moment, a slender hand reached out from nowhere and shook his . "Here's wishing you a happy matchmaking session . "
Mo Chen looked at Lu Zhanbei with hidden bitterness, as if trying to ask if he had to be that stingy when it was just a handshake .
Lu Zhanbei smiled without saying a word .
Upon witnessing this scene, everyone looked at one another .
This girl was not just anyone . Not only was she able to attend as Lu Zhanbei's female companion, she seemed to have a good relationship with the eldest son of the Mo family as well .
It was understandable why these people could not recognize Lin Wanwan . They were high-ranking people from all walks of life in Xia country . To them, the starlets in the entertainment circle were best kept under the table . Moreover, Lin Wanwan was not that famous yet .
Mo Chen ignored the gazes from all sides and continued to wink . "Brother, let's have a chat in the study room, shall we?"
"Ok . "
Lin Wanwan thought in her heart that this man was probably going to use his moral integrity and earn money again .
Lu Zhanbei gave her a side glance . He did not speak loudly, but because the main hall was very quiet, almost everyone could hear his words .
"Wait for me, I'll be right down . "
Mo Chen continued the conversation, all smiles, "If there's anything, just get the servants . You don't have to be polite . Treat this as your own home . "
This time, the way everyone looked at Lin Wanwan was more subtle .
Once the two men left, Lin Wanwan did not even have a chance to sit down before some glamorously dressed rich missus smiled and closed in on her at the signal of their husbands .
They tried to get close to her in the name of getting to know new friends, and they were mild-mannered . Even if Lin Wanwan knew what they were thinking, it would not be easy for her to directly reject them .
"Miss, how do I address you?"
"My surname is Lin . "
"So it's Ms . Lin . "
A full and mellow missus smiled with natural affinity and held Lin Wanwan's hand from the beginning .
"I don't know why, but when I first saw Ms . Lin, I already felt very close to you . If Ms . Lin is willing, we can interact more in the future . "
"Ms . Lin, why not leave down your contact details? We can go out and shop together some time . "
Lin Wanwan thought that this was funny . She was really not interested in hanging around a bunch of missus who were old enough to be her mother!
It was not difficult for Lin Wanwan to deal with all of them . It was just that she had not yet removed from herself the label of a fool; thus, she could either only reply simply or act innocent and not speak .
However, she did not know that her "air of arrogance" made this bunch of rich missus feel that she was of a high status, and they started to say more flattering words .
Not far away, Lin Qinghao saw Lin Wanwan being respected by others and was shocked .
Among the guests today, he was the most inconspicuous one . In order to get this invitation, he had to pull a lot of connections .
Even though he had successfully attended this reception, no one looked up to him . When he initiated a conversation with the rich missus that were currently surrounding Lin Wanwan, they were disdainful and did not bother talking to him .
However, Lin Wanwan received the treatment he could not even beg for .
That Mr . Lu… what exactly was his background?
Recalling the time when someone had intimidated him into agreeing to Lin Wanwan entering the entertainment circle, Lin Qinghao suddenly seemed to have understood something .
Could it be that the person who had been secretly protecting her was this Mr . Lu?
What was their relationship? Financier? Lover?
Lin Wanwan did not notice the angry Lin Qinghao, as she had run into a small trouble .
