Ruan Qiuting seed certain that she would accept the invitation. When she reached out to take it, a smug curve appeared at the corner of her mouth, "Then please, Miss Huo, do grace us with your presence at our engagent party."
After she finished speaking, she noticed He Liancheng still standing by and pulled out another invitation, "Since you say you’re a friend of Miss Huo, please join us for our engagent ceremony as well."
It was that gentle and courteous signature smile that no man could refuse.
He Liancheng didn’t have much affection for Ruan Qiuting, and he could sense that when she handed the invitation to Little Dragonfly, it was more like a declaration of sothing.
Yet, a gentleman’s duty is not to refuse, so He Liancheng could only reach out to take it.
But, her and Li Yuan’s engagent ceremony?
Li Yuan, aning the heir of the Li Consortium?
He was getting engaged? And to another woman.
He Liancheng didn’t rush to look at the na inside the invitation but instead, after realizing the possibility, he turned to look at Huo Yishan.
Huo Yishan kept her head down, no one could see the expression on her face.
When she opened the invitation and saw those familiar two characters, her heart was pierced with a sharp, unbearable pain, like an invisible sword.
Why should she attend their engagent party? Why let herself fall into such a miserable situation?
How could she not know that the reason Ruan Qiuting sent her this invitation was nothing more than to have her watch them exchange engagent rings, to take the first steps of a lifeti together.
Suppressing that vague ache, Huo Yishan looked up at Ruan Qiuting with a calm expression, "Sorry, I’m not on friendly enough terms with you to offer my blessings."
After saying that, she returned the invitation to Ruan Qiuting.
Ruan Qiuting glanced at the invitation; indeed, her intention was for Huo Yishan to watch closely how she and Li Yuan ended up together.
"Miss Huo, are you not coming because you’re afraid, or do you not want to see Li Yuan and walking down the aisle of happiness?"
These words were clearly provocative, and Huo Yishan’s expression changed slightly.
"Miss Ruan, aren’t you overestimating yourself?"
"It’s not overestimation, but rather, although you and I aren’t friendly, you are indeed friends with Li Yuan, aren’t you?"
With Ruan Qiuting’s words, Huo Yishan realized that the reason she hadn’t received any ssages or calls from him all day was because he was busy preparing for his engagent?
Her heart felt like it was sliced through with a ruthless blade.
But outwardly, Huo Yishan smirked coldly, "Miss Ruan, you’re working so hard just to win my blessing?"
"Of course, after all, you and Li Yuan are quite close, aren’t you?"
Huo Yishan suddenly circled around her, "Then how does Miss Ruan want to bless you?"
"Attending our engagent ceremony would be the greatest blessing of all."
"Alright then, since Miss Ruan so graciously invites, I would appear very rude not to go, wouldn’t I?"
Ruan Qiuting also smiled, "Then I shall await your presence."
"Awaiting my presence might be too much, but you’d better keep an eye on your future husband, who knows, one day he might not belong to you anymore."
Upon hearing this, Ruan Qiuting’s expression changed slightly.
She, of course, knew that Li Yuan did not like her, and Huo Yishan’s words subtly flaunted this fact.
"Miss Huo, you’re an actress, and I hope you can behave yourself and don’t end up doing anything that might damage your reputation."
