"Meng Chang?!"
When everyone heard the waiter's words, they were all stunned.
"President Ouyang, didn't you say you didn't invite Meng Chang?" a young man couldn't help but ask.
The man sitting next to Ouyang Fuhua replied, "Can't you tell? This is President Ouyang's surprise for everyone. If you all knew Meng Chang was coming, what surprise would there be?"
A woman glanced at Mo Xiaojing, "We're all benefiting from Miss Mo's presence. Everyone knows Miss Mo is a loyal fan of Meng Chang."
Many women turned their gazes to Mo Xiaojing, their eyes filled with envy.
However, Ouyang Fuhua was completely bewildered.
He had indeed invited Meng Chang today, but the other party had clearly refused directly. How could she suddenly be here?
Did Meng Chang also want to give him a surprise?
But logically, their relationship was very ordinary, and it shouldn't be enough for her to play such a prank on him.
However, since she was already here, Ouyang Fuhua naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity to show off. He adjusted his tie and looked at the waiter, "Let her in."
Then, his gaze shifted to Mo Xiaojing, "Miss Mo, I've heard you're a loyal fan of Meng Chang, so I specifically prepared this surprise for you today. I hope you like it."
Mo Xiaojing frowned slightly, remaining silent.
A woman quickly chimed in, "I'm so touched. Sister Xiaojing, President Ouyang is truly devoted to you."
Ouyang Fuhua's lips curved into a smile, and he cast a triumphant glance at Chen Mo, his eyes full of provocation.
At least today, he felt he had won a round against Chen Mo and regained some face.
Soon, the doors to the banquet hall were pushed open.
Everyone's gaze turned towards the entrance.
As expected, Meng Chang, dressed in a dress and wearing large sunglasses, walked in from outside.
However, Meng Chang at this moment had lost her previous arrogance and appeared very reserved. She even nodded in thanks to the waiter who opened the door for her.
This made the waiter feel incredibly flattered.
He thought to himself, such a big star, and she's thanking him? She's so approachable.
Seeing Meng Chang enter the banquet hall, Ouyang Fuhua, as the host and inviter, stood up from his seat and walked towards Meng Chang.
"Miss Meng Chang, welcome, welcome! Your arrival has added a lot of color to our reception tonight, and we have many fans of yours here," Ouyang Fuhua said very politely to Meng Chang.
Almost everyone present was a fan of Meng Chang, and they all showed excitement. Some even took out their phones to take pictures.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Meng Chang asked, a little confused, looking at Ouyang Fuhua.
Ouyang Fuhua's expression faltered, and then he introduced himself, "Miss Meng Chang, I am Ouyang Fuhua. I contacted your assistant this morning and invited you to attend tonight's reception."
"Ouyang Fuhua? Reception?" Meng Chang clearly looked surprised.
"Aren't you here for the reception?" Ouyang Fuhua asked with a smile.
Meng Chang replied with an apologetic expression, "No, no, you've misunderstood. I'm here to find someone."
"Find someone?"
The people present exchanged glances.
They all thought this was a surprise arranged by Ouyang Fuhua, but they didn't expect her not to be here for the reception.
Ouyang Fuhua frowned slightly and asked, "Miss Meng Chang is here to find someone?"
Meng Chang quickly nodded, "Yes, is Mr. Chen Mo here?"
Whoosh!
Immediately, the entire venue erupted in a clamor!
All eyes turned in unison to Chen Mo, who was sitting at a dining table eating foie gras.
Chen Mo was too lazy to pay attention to these people.
So after sitting down and chatting briefly, his chopsticks never stopped.
He didn't interject when the conversation turned to the horse farm.
Many people also sneered at Chen Mo's eating habits, thinking he was a bumpkin who had never seen the world.
Generally, at such receptions, who would come with the intention of eating their fill?
These places were for discussing business and building relationships. It was probably only someone like Chen Mo who would ignore others' gazes and keep eating until he was full.
"Hey, Chen Mo."
Mo Xiaojing saw Chen Mo still eating foie gras and couldn't help but gently nudge his arm.
Chen Mo then looked up.
Soon, Chen Mo noticed something was wrong because everyone's attention was on him.
Chen Mo looked at Mo Xiaojing beside him with a question, "What's wrong?"
However, before Mo Xiaojing could answer, a figure had already rushed in front of Chen Mo.
"Mr. Chen, I finally found you!"
The beautiful figure grabbed Chen Mo's arm, her expression appearing very excited.
Seeing who it was, Chen Mo was a little confused, "Meng Chang? Why are you here?"
Meng Chang said excitedly, "Mr. Chen, I've been looking for your contact information and address since last night. This afternoon, I finally found your rented apartment. That little girl said you were attending a reception here tonight, so I came uninvited."
Chen Mo was puzzled by her attitude.
The arrogant and proud demeanor from yesterday was completely gone. Now, Meng Chang's face was only filled with apprehension and excitement.
"This reception wasn't organized by me. Whether you can attend or not, you'll have to ask him," Chen Mo said, pointing to the bewildered Ouyang Fuhua.
In an instant, all eyes turned to Ouyang Fuhua again.
Just moments ago, Ouyang Fuhua had confidently told everyone that Meng Chang was invited by him, all to give Mo Xiaojing a surprise.
But now, even a fool could see that Meng Chang hadn't come at Ouyang Fuhua's invitation; she was here to find Chen Mo!
Feeling the gazes of those around him, Ouyang Fuhua's face turned red, wishing he could disappear into the ground!
This was simply a complete humiliation!
He never would have imagined that Chen Mo would know Meng Chang, and judging by her demeanor, Meng Chang seemed to be quite afraid of Chen Mo.
Mo Xiaojing couldn't help but let out a light laugh, "President Ouyang, may I ask if Miss Meng Chang is welcome to attend this reception?"
Mo Jialong also couldn't help but laugh, "Hahaha, President Ouyang, didn't you say Miss Meng Chang was invited by you? But why does she say she's here to see my brother-in-law?"
He then looked at Meng Chang and asked, "Miss Meng Chang, have you perhaps misremembered?"
Meng Chang's mind was a bit chaotic, but she kept one principle in mind: not to offend Chen Mo.
She quickly replied, "There was a misunderstanding between me and Mr. Chen Mo yesterday. I came today specifically to apologize to Mr. Chen Mo."
Whoosh!
The venue was in an uproar again.
Everyone exchanged bewildered glances.
Everyone knew that Meng Chang had the backing of a consortium. For even Meng Chang to seek an apology from Chen Mo? What kind of background did this Chen Mo have?
