Chapter 118 - Meeting the ex-girlfriend (1)
Father Ye had chosen the hotel that Ye Zhen and Lu Beichuan had used for their wedding venue for his 50th birthday banquet . Who knows if this was intentional or just a coincidence? He couldn't book the entire hotel like the Lu's, but he could afford to book a conference hall and still have money to spare .
Father Ye was dressed in a suit . Mother Ye, who was standing next to him, was dressed elegantly and looked regal . They were in high spirits as they stood in the doorway and welcomed guests .
Father Ye had invited many people to his birthday banquet including well-known people in the business world . These famous guests weren't even Father Ye's acquaintances, but they couldn't turn down his invitation because he was Lu Beichuan's father-in-law .
Since Lu Beichuan would be attending too, they had to give Father Ye face . Besides, they might even have a chance to chat with Lu Beichuan and exchange contact details with him for potential future collaborations .
As the endless stream of people passed through the hall's entrance . Father Ye repeatedly looked at his watch . With furrowed brows, he hastily asked his wife, "Have you called Zhenzhen yet? Where is she and Beichuan?"
"I already called her an hour ago . She said they're on the way here . "
"An hour ago, they should be here by now . . . Mr . Chen . " Father Ye abruptly changed faces . Smiling at the approaching guest, he said, "It's my honor that you were able to take time from your busy schedule to attend . . . "
Mother Ye glanced at her husband before turning around and entering the venue hall to look for someone .
After looking around, she finally found Ye Qing . Her older daughter was warmly chatting with someone in a nook .
It took Mother Ye many days of talking to straighten her older daughter out . The dejected Ye Qing had finally regained her spirit and pulled herself together . When Ye Qing smiled, she looked as beautiful as a flower . It looked as if she had recovered back to her former self .
"Qingqing, why are you standing here? Mom has been looking for you . " Mother Ye turned to look at the woman that Ye Qing had been talking too . The woman was wearing a long red dress . In an instant, she was stunned . "You're . . . "
Holding the other woman's hand, Ye Qing smiled as she introduced, "Mom, this is my friend, Miss Shen . "
Shen Weiyin smiled as she stretched her hand out for a handshake . Natural and graceful, she greeted, "Hi aunty, you can just call me Weiyin . "
Mother Ye reflexively shook Shen Weiyin's outstretched hand . After thinking for a long time, she finally smiled and said, "I almost didn't recognize you . Weiyin, you look much more beautiful in person . "
The Shen's wasn't an ordinary family . With the backing of her family, Shen Weiyin took to the the entertainment circle like a fish going back to water . All year around, she appeared on screens of all sizes . Her popularity was high enough that her name would be instantly recognized . It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was a household name .
And, she was industrious and kept a low-profile . She was very talented in acting and was liked by many directors . She was a friendly person with many friends in the entertainment circle .
Shen Weiyin smiled . She didn't put on a show of false humility . Instead, she naturally accepted Mother Ye's praise as if she often heard these words .
"I saw you at the doors when I came in . If Qingqing didn't tell me, I would have thought you were Qingqing's older sister . "
Mother Ye covered her mouth and smiled . "A famous star's mouth is also so sweet . Today is Qingqing's dad's birthday . Since you came, have a good time here . Go help yourself to a drink . I need to talk with Qingqing . Please excuse us . "
Shen Weiyin slightly nodded . "Okay, aunty . "
Mother Ye brought Ye Qing closer to her side and glanced at Shen Weiyin as she walked away .
