In the past few days, while Rongcheng was in full swing looking for his mother, Jiang Ruo heard that there was a private charity banquet.

It is said that the banquet will feature a series of private collections, which include many of the Tang family's treasures, that is, the things that her maternal grandfather's family had left behind.

The most important of these is a ruby crown set with a full head, close to 100 pieces.

Not only is this crown expensive, but it also has a special meaning.

It is a coming-of-age ceremony given to his daughter by Grandpa Tang, and it is matched with the heart of the king and the heart of the princess, which is extremely luxurious.

The rubies are of the best quality produced in the Myanmar-Vietnam region in recent decades, and the inside of the gems is carved with very sophisticated and high-end techniques.

It can be said that this is a unique and irreproducible treasure in the world, this is the only one, full of Grandpa Tang's fatherly love for his daughter, without reservation.

The banquet is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m.

It was held in a suburban estate.

From the outside, the manor is surrounded by mountains and rivers, covering a vast area, and the buildings are also gorgeous and exquisite, and the courtyard is full of flowers and trees, full of strong Western style.

The main building is brightly lit, and the sound of talking and laughing in the hall floats in the void, which is very lively.

The car drove into the manor, Wen Huai got out of the car first, and then stretched out his hand to help Jiang Ruo down.

It was inconvenient to take Wen You on this occasion, so the two put her at home and asked Zhuang Yan to help take care of her for a while.

They didn't bring too many cronies with them when they returned to China this time, just the two Zhuang brothers.

A medical student, you can observe the child's physical condition at any time; A martial arts practitioner can follow Wen Huai to run around and be busy.

Mr. and Mrs. Beiwei have been staying in country Y to temporarily help manage the normal operation of the group and studio there.

Jiang Ruo wore a black velvet plain soft-forged cheongsam tonight, the style was simple and dignified, there was no exaggerated high slit or low cut, but a high neck wrapped around a long neck, and a very long skirt, which hung down to the top of the feet wearing high heels, and then wore elbow-length lace white gloves on both arms.

This outfit sets off her graceful, lovely, and her figure looks graceful and beautiful, with perfect curves.

The night was windy, and Wen Huai put a snow-white fox fur shawl on her, afraid that she would be cold.

Wen Huai was wearing a low-key and elegant pure black tunic with a pocket watch chain on his chest, and his figure was tall and long, standing next to her, very compatible with her.

Jiang Ruo took Wen Huai's arm, and the two entered the hall together.

The floor of the hall was refracted by the bright lights, and it was even a little dazzling.

The guests looked away in amazement.

It's not that I completely admire the beautiful faces of men and women, but...

At this moment, there seemed to be a mirror in the void, reflecting the man and woman.

Not far away, I saw a man and a woman who looked very similar to them.

It's Huo Jinting and Yun Ruo.

It's no wonder the rest of the guests were so surprised.

It's not like I've seen a ghost, I'm looking in the mirror.

Jiang Ruo glanced at the two people on the other side lightly, and retracted his gaze, "Brother Ahuai, let's go find that person."

She's here to do business.

As for the little stand-in that Huo Jinting raised with him, she didn't pay any attention to it.

Wen Huai looked down at her, and his voice was warm: "Okay."

..

The person in Jiang Ruo's mouth is the owner of the manor and the organizer of this charity dinner.

She had come to see this man purely for the ruby crown.

I would like to ask if I can buy it for money.

The organizer was a foreigner, and Wen Huai talked to him for a while, but he didn't eat oil.

He said that he was already planning to give this crown to his friend.

The man replied in English, "Unfortunately, that friend of mine loved it too."

"Who's that friend of yours?" Can I go and ask him if he can sell it?" Jiang Ruo asked anxiously, "This crown is really important to me."

It's her mother's stuff.

whereas

And it was given to her mother by her grandfather with a lot of effort, and she really wanted to get it back.

When she finds her mother, she can return the crown to her mother, and in this way, her mother will be very happy.

The man shook his head, "I'm sorry."

While we were talking, someone suddenly came in.

When the man saw the comer, he immediately threw down the young couple and greeted him, "Derek."

Jiang Ruo turned around when he heard the sound.

Unexpectedly, the person who came...

Huo Jinting?

The man introduced, "This is the friend I want to give, Mr. Derek, you can talk to him about the crown."

What else is there to talk about?

Huo Jinting will definitely not give it!

came with Huo Jinting, as well as Yun Ruo.

I saw that Yun Ruo was attracted by the crown protected by a glass cover next to him, and walked over with a gorgeous skirt, and his tone was very pleasantly surprised: "Brother Ating, is this the gift you want to give me?"

Yun Ruo stretched out his hand and stroked it in the air, and his eyes were full of glittering gems in the crown, and he muttered, "It's so beautiful."

Women are inherently resistant to things like jewelry, let alone such expensive and luxurious treasures, and any woman wants to take them for herself.

Huo Jinting glanced at Jiang Ruo thoughtfully, then raised his hand to let the glass cover open, and his tone was extremely indifferent: "If you like it, wear it."

Yun Ruo was really not polite, she picked up the crown and put it on herself, she wore a big red European-style fluffy princess dress tonight, which matched the crown incomparably.

Seeing this, Jiang Ruo was furious.

It was worn by her mother when she was canonized as a countess on the day she was eighteen years old, how could it be defiled by another woman?

Huo Jinting's sideways kick made Jiang Ruo extremely unhappy.

She approached Huo Jinting, raised her head and asked him, "Huo Jinting, you make a price, I will spend money to buy it, and you give me something."

Huo Jinting put his hands in his pockets, his tall body looked down at her slightly, deliberately angry with her, and made her jealous, "My woman also likes it, why should I give it to you?"

After that, he lingered any longer, exchanged a few words with the organizer of the dinner, and then wanted to leave.

Huo Jinting said very smoothly: "Ruoruo, let's go."

Yun Ruo's smile was like a flower, and there was a hint of smugness in his eyes, and he hurriedly came over and grabbed Huo Jinting's arm, and his voice was as soft as water: "Thank you, Brother Ating."

"Huo Jinting!" Jiang Ruo looked at the backs of the two of them drifting apart, extremely annoyed.

Every time I meet him, it will be fine.

Broom star!

..

Yun Ruo wore the ruby crown and made a high-profile appearance in the hall again, which attracted the envy of everyone, and she was in the limelight for a while, and she was the absolute heroine at the banquet.

Upstairs at this time, Wen Yuan, who had just finished talking about business, leaned on the railing, gently shaking the wine glass in his hand, and the wine was overflowing, reflecting the lively scene in the hall.

Even if Yun Ruo looks like Jiang Ruo and imitates it, Wen Yuan can still recognize at a glance who is his real wife.

He saw that in the crowd, Jiang Ruo was wearing a plain and elegant cheongsam, and he looked depressed and lost.

Come to think of it, she must not have snatched the crown with Yun Ruo.

The origin of the crown, he knows.

Wen Yuan took a sip of wine, the corner of his eyes still stopped on Jiang Ruo, and said in a doting tone, "Stupid."

Can you still ask others to snatch your own things?
