Chapter 68 - Whose engagement is this? (2/2)
”My god?! Isn't that Lena Shen?”
There was lots of light flickering as everyone took a wonderful picture of Ming Zhao and Lena.
”I didn't think she would come to her ex-fiance's engagement? You think she has moved on to be with Ming Zhao now?”
”Of course! They were dancing at the Annual Charity Auction too, remember?”
”She is really a gem! Only the top men of China can match her!”
Ming and Lena walked passed the crowd but did offer some ”fan service” by stopping, posing and smiling at the camera. When they finally entered the building, both of them stopped smiling and open the distance from them.
”I didn't know Miss. Shen knows how to act too.” Ming complimented her.
”What do you mean? If I had entered the acting industry, I would be number one.” Lena winked at him.
They both were guided by a worker to the main event area. Ming offered his arm again to Lena and she held it with her small hands. They stood in front of a big gold door.
”You ready?” Ming Zhao asked.
”Never been better.”
The worker opened the door for them and they both walked into the large room. The loud chattering died down a bit and most of the crowd look at them. Ming's blond hair made him look as blinding and matching standing next Lena's bright red qipao.
Both of them ignored the silence and walked toward their parents who gestured for them to come. A moment afterward, the loud chattering was back and Lena had her ears perked up, ready for the comments to come by.
She always had an excitement for gossips, especially those about her.
”Did you see that? Lena is dressed so pretty. Why didn't I think of wearing some like that instead?” A young woman looked down to her white modern party dress. Almost all young woman hear were dressed like that. Only a few elders and Madams dressed more traditional.
”Ignore her dress, she, herself overall is even more pretty than Eva, don't you think?” Another one spoke.
”Hm?” The groups of girls looked at Lena then glance at Eva who was standing by Andy.
”That's right. It's like she and Ming Zhao are the ones getting engaged!”
”I agree! Whose engagement is this?” They all laughed.
