"Stop talking," Lin Xuefei almost growled.
"Lin Xuefei, Xia Weilan is Mr. Mo's wife. Who do you think Mr. Mo will side with? Do you really think he'll give you the championship? I'm calling to tell you that I don't like Xia Weilan either. If you need a helper, we can cooperate."
Xia Ruolin looked cold and noble.
Then she hung up the phone directly.
On the day Xia Weilan returned to the Xia family, Xia Ruolin had her people keep an eye on Xia Weilan's every move. By coincidence, they discovered this matter.
...
Originally, only people in the aristocratic circle knew that Xia Weilan had become the eldest daughter of the Xia family. Through this competition, it was reported that Xia Weilan was the eldest daughter of the Xia family.
Therefore, with the joint efforts of the Xia and Mo families, the result of this competition remained at the top of the hot - search list for several days.
At the Elegant Royal Mansion.
Xia Weilan put the trophy and the prize money of over a million in the cabinet of the master bedroom.
She felt a bit awkward. As Mrs. Mo, she had received the award from Mo Beichen and then brought it back to the Mo family...
Just then, Xia Weilan's phone rang. It was Mr. Mo calling.
"Grandpa?" Xia Weilan answered.
"My dear granddaughter - in - law, you've brought glory to our Mo family. Grandpa plans to hold a celebration banquet for you tomorrow evening. What do you think?"
"A celebration banquet? Will I attend as the winner?" Xia Weilan asked carefully.
"Grandpa plans to officially announce your marriage." The voice of Mr. Xia could also be heard from Mr. Mo's side. Both of them were quite excited.
"Grandpa, I'm afraid that won't work this time. If we announce the marriage now, people will think there's something fishy about this championship. Moreover, my husband is worried about my safety and doesn't want me to reveal my identity as Mrs. Mo in public." Xia Weilan's voice was soft but persuasive.
"You're right. I almost forgot. My girl, you must dress beautifully tomorrow. I still have a lot to talk to your grandpa. That's it for now." Mr. Mo's voice rose at the end, as if he were the one who had won the award.
"Goodbye, Grandpa." Xia Weilan hung up the phone. Her heart was warm.
Mo Beichen was on the phone outside. At this moment, Xia Weilan was alone in the room. She couldn't help but reach out and touch the pendant on her snow - white neck.
It was designed by her and crafted by Mo Beichen himself.
The significance was truly extraordinary.
She never expected that the usually taciturn Mo Beichen could be so meticulous.
It seemed that in her past life, Xia Weilan had been blind and never really known Mo Beichen.
The next day.
The Mo Group held a celebration banquet at the largest seven - star hotel in the capital.
Many famous ladies, aristocrats, and well - known design masters were invited.
It was really a grand event. The Xia and Mo families were working together to build a good reputation for Xia Weilan.
A black Maybach stopped in front of the hotel.
The car door opened, and a man and a woman got out hand in hand.
Instantly, they attracted a lot of attention.
Mo Beichen was dressed in a white shirt and a black suit. The exquisite and complex workmanship made his tall and straight figure even more dazzling and noble.
Xia Weilan, gently holding his arm, was wearing a purple mermaid - style dress. The vintage V - neck design made her swan - like neck look fair and delicate. The aqua - blue jewelry on it emitted an elegant halo.
"Oh my god, Miss Xia really lives up to her noble family background!"
"Mr. Mo always looks like a god!"
Their appearance like a prince and a princess instantly stunned everyone.
The hall was brightly lit. Ouyang Mingqi was gently shaking his wine glass. Leaning against a pillar, he was casually sipping his wine and chatting with a few young masters in front of him.
Just then, there was a commotion at the entrance, which caught his attention.
"Isn't that the Miss Xia you saved?" a young master blurted out.
"Shut up. Don't mention the saving thing. Our Young Master Ouyang just met someone ungrateful," another young master quickly reminded.
"Right, right. Stop talking. Let's drink."
But Ouyang Mingqi was staring intently in the direction of the entrance. He didn't even notice someone offering him a toast.
Xia Weilan greeted everyone gracefully. Like the most eye - catching star in the whole venue, she walked up to Mr. Xia and Mr. Mo, smiling sweetly.
Mo Beichen then let go of her hand and chatted with several business partners beside him.
Even so, Xia Weilan still became the envy of all the women.
"The Xia and Mo families are both aristocratic families. Xia Weilan won the Mo family's competition championship. Isn't this like adding kinship to kinship?"
"I heard that the Xia and Mo families are going to have a marriage alliance. There was talk about marriage before. Xia Weilan is really lucky!"
"Look, Young Master Ouyang..."
As soon as Xia Weilan was alone, Ouyang Mingqi walked towards her.
"Miss Xia, nice to meet you again!" Ouyang Mingqi raised his glass and clinked it with hers very gentlemanly.
"We've met. Goodbye." Xia Weilan got angry as soon as she saw Ouyang Mingqi.
In her mind, she could still see the scene from her past life when Ouyang Mingqi and Xia Ruolin were having an affair in front of her and humiliating her.
At this moment, when Xia Weilan turned around, she accidentally bumped into a waiter. The water in the glass immediately spilled on her chest.
"I'm sorry," the waiter apologized nervously when he saw it was Xia Weilan.
Before Xia Weilan could react, Ouyang Mingqi had already put his coat on her.
"Are you okay?" Ouyang Mingqi kept a proper distance, and his gentle concern was obvious.
Xia Weilan looked down at the coat on her body and then looked up at Ouyang Mingqi, who was smiling brightly. She had no choice but to say:
"Thank you."
"It's just a small thing," Ouyang Mingqi said with a slight raise of his lips and suggested:
"Maybe you should go to your room in the hotel first. I'll find a suitable dress for you."
Xia Weilan looked around and saw that several famous ladies were looking in their direction. Mo Beichen had his back to them and didn't notice what was happening to her.
Why not go and change clothes first? But she couldn't trouble Ouyang Mingqi anymore.
"I'll go and tell my grandpa. He'll arrange it for me. Excuse me." Xia Weilan nodded politely, walked up to Mr. Xia, and was soon taken downstairs by a waiter.
Ouyang Mingqi watched Xia Weilan's departing back, slightly curving his lips. His mood improved a lot.
After all, this time Xia Weilan had to owe him a favor.
When he walked to a corner as if nothing had happened, the clumsy waiter walked towards him. After they exchanged some money, they separated.
Ouyang Mingqi then walked directly towards the room where Xia Weilan was.
In the room, Xia Weilan was sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for someone sent by her grandpa to bring her clothes.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
