Volume 2 Chapter 1433: A Promise of Love (16)

The people who came to attend the Bai family banquet were either rich or expensive. They must have been dressed up. The men were in suits and leather shoes, and the women were in noble and beautiful dresses.

People like Xia Ennuo are rare.

In the past, Xia Enuo would have spent at least half a day dressing up for a banquet. From clothes to shoes to jewelry, you have to choose everything carefully, and you have to style your hair according to the dress you are wearing.

However, she is not Bai Enuo, but Xia Enuo, and it is impossible for her to spend so much time on dressing up.

She didn't have a dress in her cupboard, so she couldn't buy one for a party. She couldn't decide what to buy from the street stalls. She originally wanted to wear a dress, but when she was choosing, she thought of Huo Mian, so she had to continue wearing jeans and a shirt.

This outfit is really out of place and doesn't match at all.

However, there are also benefits. At least it can make you more aware of your current identity, and you will no longer have messy thoughts that are not consistent with reality.

Xia Enuo attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared, especially men's.

When she wears a skirt, exposing her white calves can make men want to put their hands into her thighs.

Wearing pants was even worse. The jeans hugged her slim figure, especially her breasts. As long as the man's eyes fall there, he can't look away.

"Who is this woman?" someone asked as soon as she came in.

"Bai Enoch! I don't even know these people."

"It's so beautiful! It's getting more and more delicious."

This is a conversation for men.

When it comes to women, they just call Xia Enuo shameless.

"What are you wearing? I don't care what the occasion is. Come here in jeans."

"After all, she is a daughter raised by the Bai family. It's really embarrassing to dress like this."

"They say he was brought up, but now he has been brought back to his original form. How can he have the money to buy a dress?"

"Yeah, the wild ones can't compare to the real ones. Miss Baimeng is really beautifully and noblely dressed today."

The women gathered together to talk about Xia Enuo and Bai Meng. The voices got louder and louder, and they talked more and more. Xia Enuo pretended not to hear them and walked towards Mrs. Bai and Bai Meng.

Bai Meng saw Xia Yinuo coming here dressed like this, thinking that Xia Yinuo was sensible and didn't dress up to suppress his own limelight.

However, she stopped thinking about it when she saw that most of the men at the banquet were staring at Xia Yinuo with ugly expressions on their faces.

Bai Meng was talking to Huo Mian. When Huo Mian first came in, he became the center of attention. But for Huo Mian, they were trying to please and cling to him, and they would never look at Huo Mian with contempt, disdain or lewdness.

This is the difference in status.

Huo Mian saw Xia Yinuo as soon as she came in. He saw that she had changed into jeans and a shirt, and he was still happy that she was well-behaved.

This joy did not last for a second. He also saw the sparkle in the eyes of the men at the banquet, and then saw Xia Enuo's breasts, and because he was wearing a shirt, the bulge was looming, how could it not make men covet him? Huo Mian's eyes darkened.

Xia Yinuo walked in the direction of Madam Bai. After she came in, she knew exactly what she heard and felt. Even so, she still walked to Madam Bai with a smile.

"Mrs. Bai."

"Miss Bai." Xia Yinuo greeted Bai Meng. When her eyes met Huo Mian beside Bai Meng, her heart trembled violently. She lowered her voice and called, "Mr. Huo."

"Well." Mrs. Bai looked at Xia Enoch and said, "Enoch, why are you dressed like this?"

Mrs. Bai is very concerned about girls' appearance and etiquette. Every time she took Xia Enuo to a banquet, she would not dress Xia Enuo in a dazzling way.

Xia Enuo was wearing jeans and a shirt today, which really made Madam Bai displeased.

Although Xia Enuo was not her biological daughter, she was used to talking about Xia Enuo as before.

"Mom." Bai Meng took over Madam Bai's words with a smile, "It's probably too late for Enoch to change clothes."

"Enoch, I'll take you upstairs to change into clothes." Bai Meng said again. Her cabinet was full of new clothes.

Xia Yinuo shook his head and refused, "No need."

"I still have something to do. I'll sit down for a while and then leave." Xia Yinuo refused with a smile.

When Mrs. Bai heard Bai Meng's words, she thought of her current relationship with Xia Enuo, softened her voice and responded, "Yes."

The music started playing, and Mrs. Bai turned to look at Huo Mian with a smile, "Mr. Huo, please take Mengmeng to the opening dance. She has been learning to dance all night for this dance."

Huo Mian promised Su Ruochu that he would accompany Bai Meng in the opening dance, but he didn't expect Xia Yinuo to come too.

What an idiot. She didn't know that they wanted her to come to Bai's house to embarrass her?

Huo Mian glanced at Xia Yinuo, then turned around and stretched out her hand towards Bai Meng, "Miss Bai, please."

Looking at Huo Mian's face, Bai Meng's heartbeat quickened rapidly. She shyly put her hand on Huo Mian's palm and followed Huo Mian to the center of the banquet.

When the two people passed by, they immediately became the focus of the audience.

People around watched them dance. They praised Bai Meng's dancing and beauty. They also praised these two as golden boys and girls, a perfect match.

Xia Enuo has often heard such words.

When she was sixteen, she danced the opening dance with Huo Mian, which was also the request of her elders. However, when Huo Mian was dancing with her in his arms, she secretly looked up and saw that there was no smile on his face, so he was probably very reluctant to dance with her.

"Our Bai family has always wanted to marry the Huo family." Mrs. Bai's voice rang in Xia Yinuo's ears, and Xia Yinuo knew it.

Mrs. Bai mentioned it to Xia Enuo very early on.

God knows, after Mrs. Bai told her that she would marry the Huo family, she couldn't sleep for several nights in a row.

She had always wanted to marry Huo Mian and be his wife, even if he didn't like her.

"Fortunately, this marriage didn't happen while you were here." Mrs. Bai added another sentence, and it was impossible for Xia Yinuo not to understand the meaning of this sentence.

"Enoch, you have always been very well-behaved, and we all love you. However, God loves to joke so much. You are not my biological daughter, Mengmeng is."

"Now, we want to bring Mengmeng and Huo Mian together." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Bai looked at Xia Yinuo.

Xia Yinuo pursed his lips and smiled softly at Mrs. Bai, "Yeah."

But her heart ached a little bit.

When the Bai family saw Huo Mian, Xia Yinuo knew that the Bai family was trying to bring Huo Mian and Bai Meng together. No, when she moved out of the Bai family and returned to the Xia family, she clearly realized that she and Huo Mian were gone.

When she was studying in Jingcheng, she could still think that one day the Bai family would summon her back and discuss marrying Huo Mian with her. In that case, she could come to him openly.

Waiting for the Bai family to call her back, but it was because of her life experience.

"Enoch, do you understand what I mean?" Mrs. Bai said warmly. "You and Huo Mian were originally a couple that we both liked." Madam Bai continued, "What about you? Although you haven't told me about your feelings for Huo Mian, you probably like her to some extent."
