Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Wife (6)
 

The banquet hall was abuzz with people.

Yet among them all, Bo Yan remained the most eye-catching presence.

Not only was he a part of the Bo Family, but he was also a top celebrity. Wherever he stood, he seemed to glow with a soft light. He had now become the Bo Family’s trademark. Although the elite circles didn’t hold much regard for stars, a high-quality idol like him, an artist with a spotless reputation, was still highly sought after. Not just by young girls, but also by major players with business dealings with Bosch Corporation, who would approach him for a chat.

At a glance, Bo Yan did see a few familiar faces. There was no need to mention Shang Feifei and Li Yiru, as well as Wu Di, his junior from the same company who had been a guest on a show. And there was Boss Chen, the one who had raced cars with him and Bo Yi before.

Li Weiyi, who had been beaten up by Xia Siyu last time, had also come with his father, a director of Zhongtian Group.

And then there was one more.

This one also had a bit of a history, the girlfriend of the male artist entangled in the first scandal with Xia Siyu three years ago, Jiang Bumei. While the male artist continued to hassle Xia Siyu, he told Jiang Bumei that it was Xia Siyu who seduced him. Jiang, already coming from a certain background as the daughter of the regional agent of a multinational company in China, desperately dug up dirt on Xia Siyu. As a result, Xia Siyu’s image of innocence crumbled, turning her into a controversial figure plagued by scandals.

However, the love Jiang had fiercely defended didn’t last long; the male artist reverted to his old ways and cheated again. Although Jiang Bumei broke up with him, she harbored resentment towards Xia Siyu and continued to malign her.

If it had been Bo Yan’s own gathering, he certainly wouldn’t have invited people like Jiang Bumei and Li Weiyi. But this time, it was his grandfather’s eightieth birthday and also for the transition of Bosch Corporation, so naturally, more socialites were invited, leaving him with no say in the matter.

Of course, amid the guests stirring up trouble, there were those who stood by him, such as Han Yifan. This time, he came with his father and his elder brother. Instead of his usual hair dyed in flashy colors, it was neatly groomed, and he was dressed in a proper suit, looking quite the gentleman.

With just a few minutes left before the banquet, Bo Yan kept glancing at the door while chatting.

Wu Di was right beside him; she had made a beeline for Bo Yan as soon as she entered.

Bo Yan didn’t pay her much attention, spending more time discussing business with other company executives. Although Wu Di was entitled, she did not interrupt when Bo Yan was seriously talking business, but otherwise, she was always trying to get a word in.

She noticed that Bo Yan kept looking at the entrance as if waiting for someone.

A little upset, Wu Di still asked with a smile, “Who are you waiting for, brother Yan?”

For some reason, Wu Di’s mind suddenly conjured up one person: she did not know why, but at this moment, the first woman she thought of was Xia Siyu.

Maybe it was because she had recently seen Xia Siyu appearing around Bo Yan frequently, whether in movies or variety shows. Although there didn’t seem to be anything fishy between the two, she still felt there was something off.

Bo Yan didn’t answer, but he had his ways and beckoned Han Yifan over for assistance.

Han Yifan approached with a grin: “Yo, isn’t this Wu Di? You’re looking better than ever, long time no see. Come over here and chat with brother Han.”

Then, regardless of her resistance, he dragged Wu Di away.

Bo Yan remained expressionless, and this time, not even Shang Feifei or Li Yiru came to pester him; he could focus entirely on waiting for his guest.

Soon the door opened, and from outside, a voice could be heard, “Good evening, Miss Xia.”
