Chapter 833: Disguising as a Pig to Eat a Tiger (4)
Ling Sheng was an obedient girl. Since everyone was surrounding the couple, she could not appear too independent. She sat on the outermost circle and listened to the group of women talk.
Women’s conversational topics, especially in this kind of situation, were all praises. They complimented Huo Feifei, praising her for being capable and finding a prince. She was really impressive. They asked her how she had managed to woo him, et cetera.
Huo Feifei was not stingy with her words either. She exaggerated the story of her meeting and falling in love with the prince. The romantic plot that was like a novel made the ladies present sigh with envy.
Huo Xuanzhou did not join the crowd of men. Instead, he sat on the sofa armrest beside Ling Sheng. He was like a live bullet screen. No matter what Huo Feifei said, he had to complain to Ling Sheng in a soft voice. He said that she was lying, that she was being fake, and it was like she was acting in a television drama. Her vanity was incredible. She had gone all out to show off.
Huo Feifei was very happy. This was the first time she was enjoying being the center of attention. She was very excited and wanted to tell them all about the glory, status, and power of the Edward Family in one breath. She wanted to let them know exactly how noble the man she had found was. These men of the Huo Family were not worthy of being compared to him.
“By the way, Edward prepared a gift for everyone.” Huo Feifei put on airs. She was no longer the Huo Feifei who only knew how to please them in the past. She had to act like a future princess consort. She raised her tone and shouted, “Butler!”
When Ling Sheng heard the word “Butler”, she swallowed the grape in her mouth before she could spit the skin out. She even swallowed the seeds altogether. She let out a low cough and took a look at Huo Xuanzhou.
What kind of feeling did Huo Feifei give others? She was imitating others but making a fool of herself. She obviously did not have this kind of temperament, but she wanted to display it and make everyone bow down to her.
However, she had really brought a lot of butlers and servants. The two butlers and nearly 20 servants were holding various gifts respectfully, which all looked very exquisite.
Huo Feifei thought to herself, I’ll broaden your horizons and let you see how true aristocrats live. The gifts they give are all very honorable. Even the servants are incomparable to these vulgar servants of the Huo Family.
Everyone had a gift, but when the servant distributed all the way to Ling Sheng, she got stuck. She looked at Huo Feifei and inquired, “Ms. Huo.”
Huo Feifei looked over, and the expression in her eyes changed suddenly. It was the illegitimate daughter that her mother had said Sixth Uncle had brought over. She was the illegitimate daughter who had snatched the room and things that had originally belonged to her. She looked toward Ling Sheng and pretended not to recognize her. “Mother, who’s this?”
Xiao Hui was stunned too. She had already told her. In the morning, she had been extremely angry because of the room so she had told Feifei immediately. But she also understood what her daughter meant. “Ling Sheng, she’s your Sixth Uncle’s daughter. Look at my memory. How could I forget to tell you?”
Huo Feifei nodded in understanding and gave Ling Sheng a superior look. “So it’s Younger Sister Sheng Sheng. Sorry, I didn’t know you were here. I didn’t prepare your gift. You’re not angry with me, are you?!”
Upon seeing the mother and daughter’s micro-expressions and actions, Ling Sheng knew that Huo Feifei was aware. She was just pretending not to know. She hurriedly said, “Sister, you’re being too serious. It’s all right. It doesn’t matter whether you give me a gift or not. You being able to come home is already the best gift.”
Huo Feifei thought that this little b*stard’s was really such a sweet-talker. She knew how to talk well. No wonder she had the old man at home wrapped around her fingers. “It’s good that you’re not angry with me. I still have a lot of good things over there. You can choose them later.”
