Hong Kong is in full swing

Wei family halfway up the mountain.

In the magnificent villa, cups and plates were clinking, and the guests were either rich or noble, and all of them behaved elegantly and gracefully.

Yu Wan suddenly appeared at the venue, looking drenched from head to toe. This out-of-place image instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.

Her hair was still dripping with water, and her delicate skin looked even whiter after being soaked in the water. Her wet dark green dress clung to her body, outlining her graceful figure.

He looked like a drowned rat, but four words popped into people's minds.

Water hibiscus.

Before the housekeeper could speak, Qiao Wang said, "Awan, did you fall when you went out? Why are you all wet?"

Yu Wan said nothing, but stared at him coldly with a pair of bright black eyes.

Qiao Wang coughed, avoided her gaze, and looked directly at the young man surrounded by everyone in the center of the crowd.

——The host of the banquet, the youngest son of the Hong Kong shipping tycoon, Wei Size.

"Master Wei, my sister accidentally got her clothes wet while playing in the water. Can you lend me a place to change her clothes?"

Wei Size turned his head slowly and said nothing for a long time.

His eyes fell on Yu Wan, and Yu Wan was also looking at him.

People say that Wei Size was born with a good appearance, and sure enough, he had passionate eyes and a charming face.

Just one more look and you're likely to be sucked into a whirlpool of emotions.

Of course, Qiao pushed her into the pond not because of Wei Size's appearance.

Ever since Wei Size's sister married into the Huo family in a high-profile manner a year ago, the status of the Wei family has risen rapidly, and they are showing a tendency to take control of the overall situation.

In Qiao Wang's words, "If I can't get close to the Huo family in this lifetime, I'll try my best to get close to the Wei family."

Therefore, she became a stepping stone in this relationship, a hidden chess piece.

Suppressing the surging emotions in her heart, Yu Wan stroked the jade Buddhist beads around her neck, warning herself that the time was not right and not to act rashly.

She calmly withdrew her gaze, but the other party laughed with interest, as if he had discovered something interesting.

"Ha ha……"

Qiao Wang didn't understand the meaning behind the laughter and was secretly nervous.

The next moment, the man said lazily:

"Of course you can." Wei Size said to the housekeeper, "Didn't you see that the guest is wet? If he catches a cold, I will be guilty."

Qiao Wang immediately breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Wei Size, but the other party just raised his glass in greeting.

The housekeeper led Yu Wan into the dressing room on the first floor next to the garden, gave her a few instructions, then closed the door and left.

At this time, Qiao Wang's message arrived quietly.

[Wei Size has noticed you. Don't lose your temper and behave well.]

Finally, as if to remind, he added another sentence,

[After all, if you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will. Isn't that person looking forward to such an opportunity every day?]

The feeling of nausea and vomiting came over her like a tide, and Yu Wan's knuckles turned white as she gripped the phone.

The time has not yet come.

She warned herself again.

Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Yu Wan dried her hair and changed into the red dress she had prepared in advance.

He straightened his appearance, opened the door and walked out, and the next second his eyes met with Wei Size who was about to pass by him.

The young man turned his head, and the next moment, his eyebrows rose slightly in surprise.

The fitted dress highlights her striking figure, her cascading hair is casually tied up, and even without makeup, she is still as beautiful as a fairy with no expression on her face.

Yu Wan hadn't expected to meet him face to face so soon. She suppressed her surprise and took the initiative to greet him, "Master Wei, what a coincidence."

Wei Size came back to his senses and said he was going to pick someone up. Before Yu Wan could react and figure out who was worthy of Wei Size's personal welcome, he exclaimed, "I thought I had seen enough jewels and gems tonight, but after meeting you, I realized there are still many beauties in the world that I haven't seen yet."

Yu Wan understood as soon as she heard it. Wei Size didn't know who she was at all, and she didn't mention it. She just reminded Wei Size to pay attention to the time of entertaining guests, and then she was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, Wei Size suddenly called her over and suggested in a lazy and teasing tone, "Miss, why don't we go together?"

Yu Wan frowned, feeling that Wei Size was a bit too frivolous.

The reason she was tricked by Qiao Wang was because he had a weak spot on her, but what right did Wei Size have? He let her be the social butterfly?

Just as he was about to refuse, someone next to him spoke first, "Master, Mr. Huo is here."

Yu Wan stood there in a daze.

She slowly turned her head and stared blankly at a tall figure walking slowly towards her with an umbrella in the wind and rain.

The man walked steadily and calmly, as if he sensed being watched. He gently raised his umbrella, revealing a handsome face. His gaze was clearly just a peaceful one, but it somehow made people's hearts tighten.

It was a natural feeling of oppression.

Yu Wan's fingers curled up involuntarily.

Huo Chuyan.

The rain formed lines and poured down from the eaves. The man stepped into the corridor and stood still. His tall body was like a majestic snow mountain.

The servant quickly stepped forward to take the umbrella from Huo Chuyan and greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Huo."

"Yeah." Huo Chuyan nodded slightly in response.

His attitude is not arrogant, and he is even quite easy-going, but even so, people around him don't dare to get close to him.

It was as if there was an invisible and intangible wall of identity that naturally separated him from everyone else.

Even the laziness on Wei Size's body disappeared without a trace. He just said gently: "It's windy outside. When Huo Sheng comes in, have a few more drinks to warm yourself up."

Huo Chuyan said in his rich, deep Cantonese, "I'm late, I should drink a penalty."

Wei Size smiled and said, "It's never too late for Mr. Huo to come."

He stepped aside to invite Huo Chuyan to come in first. Only then did Yu Wan come to her senses and found herself still standing in the middle of the corridor. It seemed too deliberate for her to avoid him.

Just as she was feeling frustrated, Wei Size called her gently, "Sister, come over and say hello to Mr. Huo."

While saying this, he introduced her to Huo Chuyan: "This is my good friend's sister..."

Yu Wan immediately understood and took the initiative to give her name: "Yu Wan."

"Yes, Awan."

A pair of slender, white hands with distinct joints stretched out from in front of him, and the pleasant voice rang out again: "Huo Chuyan."

Yu Wan's tongue was almost tied: "Mr. Huo."

"Hello." The man responded briefly.

A very brief handshake.

However, Yu Wan felt that in that short period of time, she seemed to have traveled through time and space. She saw the deeper eyes of Huo Chuyan, whom she had not seen for five years, saw herself reflected in his clear eyes, and also saw the ridiculous expression of tension and anxiety that was woven under her own pretense of calmness.

She suddenly felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have taken the easy way out of anger. She should have dressed up properly.

The man withdrew his hand at a polite distance, and Yu Wan's mind returned to reality.

It’s okay, he had forgotten about me long ago.
