“Ha…”
Hearing this, Shen Xun said disdainfully, “Him? Is he worthy?”
Compared to Huo Yunque, he was much inferior.
If he was really the head of the family, would he be able to suppress all the evil troublemakers? When the time came, he would be surrounded by a pack of wolves and torn to shreds.
An Feiran smiled but did not say anything. There was a saying: An onlooker sees clearer than the person involved.
Perhaps only those who had truly suffered a setback and were bewitched would be able to come to their senses.
“Yaoyao! Tang! You guys are here too?”
The exquisite-looking girl held a goblet and walked towards them enthusiastically.
Song Yaoyao smiled as she pulled up her shawl. She apologized to the people around her and looked towards Lily, who was walking towards them.
“I’ve been so bored in China. I tried to contact you before, but couldn’t get in touch for some reason. Otherwise, I would have asked you out for a meal a long time ago,” Lily said aggrievedly.
Song Yaoyao and Tang Xinrou looked at each other. “Sorry, I lost my phone a while ago.”
“Oh! I see!” Lily immediately felt relieved. “Didn’t you bring a date? Oh right, Yaoyao, is your boyfriend here?”
Lily looked around and whispered with a smile, “I heard that your boyfriend is very handsome! I’m so curious.”
Tang Xinrou narrowed her eyes and interrupted Lily without waiting for Song Yaoyao’s reply, “Mr. Huo is busy, how can he attend all the banquets? You’ll be able to see him in the future.”
Originally, she had a good impression of Lily, but of course, she didn’t deny that it was because she had a good impression of the characters she played. But now, hearing her ask Song Yaoyao about this, Tang Xinrou’s impression of her was ruined even if it was unintentional.
Her voice was slightly stunned.
“Eh? Tang, are you angry?”
“No, you’re thinking too much,” Song Yaoyao explained for her. “She’s just… uh, she had a fight with her boyfriend just now, so she’s in a bad mood.”
“Ohhh, so that’s how it is!”
Lily looked very innocent and easy to coax, so she excitedly chatted with Song Yaoyao, “Yaoyao, I’m planning to return to China to develop my career. Mr. Zhong Li is planning to open an entertainment company, and I’m working under him. If there’s a chance, I hope you can consider me. I really like your work!”
“Sure, if there’s a chance.”
Song Yaoyao smiled sweetly and readily agreed.
Lily continued, “That’s why I gave myself a Chinese name. I don’t have a father, so I might as well follow Mr. Zhong Li’s surname.”
“What’s your name?”
“Zhongli Wan!” Lily said word by word. She learned Mandarin very quickly, but some words that were difficult to pronounce were still difficult to say.
Song Yaoyao paused when she heard this name, and Tang Xinrou was stunned.
It was not their fault for being sensitive. In their lives, the word ‘Wan’ was always accompanied by unhappiness whenever it appeared.
“Who gave that name to you?” Tang Xinrou frowned.
“Huh?” Lily was surprised. “Doesn’t it sound good? I’ve looked it up in the dictionary. Wan is a charming word that is very suitable for Chinese names. Mr. Zhong Li wouldn’t trick me.”
“You’re right, it does sound good.”
Song Yaoyao agreed without batting an eyelid.
Lily smiled innocently. “I believe in you, Yaoyao. You’re a very talented person.”
After chatting for a while, Zhong Li called out to Lily from afar as if he wanted to introduce her to a few investors. Song Yaoyao noticed that there were quite a number of A-list celebrities and directors who had come.
It looked like what Lily said was true. Zhong Li was really planning to invest in the entertainment industry.
Lily’s current popularity in the country was not bad. Celestial Wars had already been released, and the response was very good. In addition, her appearance was slightly more Asian, so she gave off a sense of familiarity.
As long as she managed it well, it would be easy for her to become popular.
Tang Xinrou pursed her lips and pulled Song Yaoyao to a corner. She asked, “Yaoyao, what do you think? Zhong Liwan. Why does it have to be this name?”
“It’s a very common word. Maybe it’s just a coincidence,” Song Yaoyao said calmly.
“But don’t you think that her sudden appearance is very strange? First, it was Zhongli Xue, then there was Zhong Li, and now there’s Zhongli Wan. I really suspect that from the very beginning, they came with ill intentions!”
Tang Xinrou looked at Lily, who had followed Zhongli Xue to socialize. She was able to handle the guests with ease.
Tang Xinrou said in a deep voice, “Besides, Song Jingwan has been missing for a long time, but there is no news of her death in China. Who knows if she had plastic surgery abroad and came back to take revenge on us?”
From the very beginning, Lily had been extremely passionate towards them.
This was too abnormal.
Even now, some people in China were still in the mindset of worshipping foreign countries. After all, the grass was always greener on the other side. Lily had shot to fame overseas, so Zhong Li’s influence abroad was not likely to be small either. Seeing that Zhong Li brought her along when he returned to the country, she could guess that she must be very doted on by Zhong Li. There was no need to curry favor with them.
They could not give Lily everything she wanted.
But Zhong Li could.
“Not necessarily.” Song Yaoyao shook her wine glass and did not drink. “What if someone deliberately released a Zhongli Wan to confuse us?”
She raised her eyes and looked at a certain spot, then raised her chin.
“If assume that Song Jingwan secretly snuck into our side with plastic surgery, then compared to this person who suddenly appeared, I think she’s more likely…”
“Her?” Tang Xinrou’s eyelids twitched, and she looked in the direction Song Yaoyao was looking.
After a moment, she cried out, “Zhongli Xue?”
The more she looked, the more she felt that it was just as Song Yaoyao had said.
Whether it was her temperament or her height, they were all too similar.
At that moment, she was standing in a corner, staring unblinkingly at Zhong Li and Lily in the crowd.
That gaze was terrifying.
“Who is she looking at?” Tang Xinrou asked in a low voice. “It does look like her. Why don’t we… get someone to get some of her hair and send it for an examination?”
As long as Song Wenchuan was around, no matter how exquisite and flawless her surgery was, she could only change her appearance. The blood in her bones could not be changed.
“If you can think of it, others can also think of it. It couldn’t be that easy.”
Song Yaoyao casually placed her goblet on the tray in the hands of the attendant passing by and walked towards Zhongli Xue.
“Eh? You just…” Did she just act rashly?
“Hello, we meet again.”
Song Yaoyao stretched out her hand. Zhongli Xue’s gaze finally shifted away from Zhong Li and landed her.
After a pause, she shook hands with her.
“Why aren’t you going to play? Your brother seems to think highly of Lily. Everyone who’s here is an elite from all walks of life. If you want to enter the entertainment industry, you might as well have a chat with them,” Song Yaoyao suggested.
Hearing this, disgust flashed across Zhongli Xue’s eyes.
She said plainly, “There’s no need. I don’t want to enter the entertainment industry.”
“Eh? Then why did you participate in ‘Dazzling You’?” In the end, she even refused to debut as a girl group member. This incident had caused a stir on the internet.
