Chapter 38

Wedding dress.

Luowan’s sweet and shy mood suddenly halted because of these two words.

Could they have such a day?

The various scenes of their registration floated in his mind.

She needed a marriage to regain her shares, and he might also need a marriage to soothe his grandparents’ hearts, and they happened to sleep together by accident.

There was no emotional foundation between them. The man’s kindness to her these past few days was something she had never experienced before, but it also made her feel unreal.

She was afraid that one day they would separate suddenly, and she wouldn’t bear it.

Sheng Qing noticed the sudden change in the woman’s mood in his arms, furrowing his brows slightly.

He released his embrace, lifted the woman’s face, and a stunning face came into view.

Her charming and plump lips were slightly pursed, and her eyes were also darting around, unable to meet his gaze directly.

“Wanwan, you have something on your mind.”

The man used a declarative sentence, affirming this matter.

Luowan uncomfortably moved her face away, not letting the other party observe her subtle expressions.

She casually found an excuse to brush past it.

Sheng Qing’s cold gaze stared straight at her. He could feel that she was only like this when she heard about the wedding dress.

Could it be that his performance these past few days was not clear enough, and she was still thinking about leaving him?

Sheng Qing felt troubled.

He could handle any difficult problem at work with ease, but when it came to the woman he cared about, he was at a loss.

It seemed like he needed to seek advice from someone someday.

The styling was done, and it was almost time.

The two set off for the charity banquet.

Xu Zheng had been working non-stop these past few days. Finally, this afternoon, he could have a break, but he was called in at the last minute to be a driver.

In the black Maybach, Luowan and Sheng Qing sat in the back seat.

Along the way, Luowan’s mood was not high, just quietly watching the scenery passing by outside the window.

While Sheng Qing quietly watched her, he pondered how to make his wife trust him more.

As the chairman of the prestigious Sheng Corporation, who was always adored by everyone, Sheng Qing was now carefully observing the face of a young girl.

Soon the car arrived at the charity auction.

This auction was held at a five-star hotel owned by the Sheng Corporation, and a thick red carpet was laid at the hotel entrance.

Sheng Qing got out of the car first.

Reporters outside the red carpet rushed to press the shutter buttons one after another.

As the first…

The Sheng family, a large clan, rarely sees Sheng Qing, the wielder of power, in the public eye.

The images circulating on the internet about him are all very blurry, not a single one allowing a clear view of his face.

According to those who have seen him, this leader of the Sheng family is not only outstanding in ability but also incomparable in appearance.

Originally, journalists were not allowed into tonight’s banquet, but at the last minute, the organizers received a notification that several large media outlets from City A were allowed entry.

The reason for the sudden change is unknown to everyone, but since there is this opportunity, everyone is eager to take advantage of it.

As soon as Sheng Qing gets out of the car, other company executives attending the banquet immediately come over to exchange pleasantries.

Xu Zheng quickly steps forward to intercept.

“Dear executives, whatever you have to say, we can discuss it after the banquet. It’s not appropriate to block the entrance with journalists present.”

“Yes, Assistant Xu is right.”

“We were being impolite.”

The people present are all savvy in the business world and immediately disperse.

Sheng Qing, with his cold ink-black eyes, watches as the crowd disperses before bending down to lead Luowan out.

When Luo Wan, dressed in a light blue gown, appears on the red carpet, everyone present holds their breath.

Too beautiful.

This kind of beauty seems to be unreal, yet it appears right before their eyes.

Everyone present is stunned.

How come they’ve never heard of such a person in City A? Which prominent family does she belong to?

In the midst of everyone’s astonishment, Sheng Qing affectionately takes the woman’s hand and walks confidently into the venue.

The combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman is truly pleasing to the eye.

But what shocks everyone even more is that this girl actually got out of Sheng Qing’s car.

You see, the rumored wielder of the Sheng family’s power never gets close to women.

Even Miss Su Yunwei from the Su family openly pursued him for several years, but he remained unmoved.

Now, with this sudden appearance of such a girl by his side, everyone finally realizes.

He doesn’t avoid women, ordinary women just can’t catch his eye.

Only such an ethereal woman can match Sheng’s unparalleled elegance.

By the time the journalists present realize, they only manage to capture the backs of the two as they are about to disappear.

Next, the Su family’s car also arrives at the scene.

Su Yunwei didn’t get the blue dress she wanted, so she had to choose another brand with a similar-colored dress.

This dress…

Jerry’s dress was similar, both strapless styles.

When two nearly identical styles appeared one after the other, especially since Su Yunwei was Sheng Qing’s pursuer, it felt like tonight would be quite a spectacle.

Su Yunwei confidently got out of the car, expecting to receive admiring glances from those around her.

However, she found that none of the journalists around were looking at her.

She raised her head in suspicion and happened to see the fleeting blue figure at the hotel entrance.

Isn’t that the dress she had set her eyes on?

So, that woman also came to this banquet. She wanted to see who this woman was and dared to snatch what she fancied.

She hurried to catch up, but it was too late; the person had already entered the elevator.

Sheng Qing brought Luo Wan into the venue.

The executives around couldn’t wait any longer and approached one by one.

These businessmen came to attend this banquet to expand their networks; otherwise, who would come just to give away money for free?

Sheng Qing really couldn’t spare a moment.

Luo Wan considerately said, “You’re busy, I’ll go see if there’s anything to eat over there.”

She hadn’t eaten much at noon and had been styling all afternoon, so she was indeed a bit hungry now.

She went to the dessert area, grabbed some sweets on a plate, and took a drink from a passing waiter, heading to a corner of the lounge area.

Luo Wan had intended to quietly eat and rest, but she couldn’t resist someone approaching her.

Some wealthy ladies at the scene saw her coming in with Sheng Qing and, under the instructions of their own men, surrounded her.

“What’s your name, miss?”

“I’m surnamed Luo.”

“Miss Luo, what’s your relationship with Mr. Sheng?”

“Is Miss Luo Mr. Sheng’s girlfriend?”

Various gossip questions kept coming, and Luo Wan, who already disliked such environments, found it even more annoying.

“Since you ladies like this spot, then I, Luo, will find another place.”

After speaking, she got up and left.

Just as she broke out of the encirclement, she bumped into Su Yunwei, who was looking around.

Both of them were momentarily stunned.

Luo Wan looked at the dress Su Yunwei was wearing, surprised at how persistent Miss Su from the Su family was.

She could find something similar even at such a time.

“Miss Su.”

Luo Wan didn’t have a good impression of Su Yunwei, but due to the occasion, she still greeted her.
