The CEO's Substitute Wife Is A Genius-Chapter 400: Amaze Everyone, Couple Outfits?
Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Amaze Everyone, Couple Outfits?
The Hu family knew that Old Madam Lu had come, so all the ladies of the house went to greet her.
Worried that the elderly would stand for too long and get tired, they even found a table and chair especially for her, inviting her to sit down.
Jiang Man looked at the four distinguished ladies and couldn’t deny feeling envious.
Although Jiang Man’s past 20 years hadn’t been great, her life ahead definitely promised to be spectacular.
She’d married a rich husband who adored her and even found a wealthy maternal uncle and grandfather.
She and Jiang Man were the same age, so why were their lives so different?
"Old Madam, would you like to go upstairs and rest for a bit? The ceremony won’t start for another hour."
"No worries, I’ll sit here, it’s a good chance to see some familiar faces and catch up."
"That’s fine, call us anytime if you need anything."
"You go ahead and take care of the other guests, don’t worry about me."
Upon Old Madam’s insistence, the ladies then left.
No sooner had they left than Jiang Man noticed a figure.
Blonde and blue-eyed, a stately lady was socializing, clinking glasses and chatting with several people.
"Grandma, I see a senior over there, I’ll go say hello."
"Go ahead."
As soon as Old Madam finished speaking, Jiang Man excitedly walked toward Mrs. Jervin.
Her face lit up with a smile, yet she was a bit timid.
She stood by Mrs. Jervin’s side for a while until the guests chatting with Mrs. Jervin noticed her.
"Mrs. Jervin, do you remember me?" Jiang Man’s voice was sweet and gentle.
Mrs. Jervin frowned, listening to her speak Chinese.
Jiang Man really wanted to communicate in French, but alas, her skills were lacking.
Back at the Royal Ballet Academy in Paris, she had relied on Ming Xiang to translate for her.
She became a bit anxious and looked around for someone to translate.
Fortunately, Hu Hao came over at that moment, seeing the young girl so pure and cute, he felt a sense of chivalry.
He acted as a translator and repeated everything to Mrs. Jervin.
Mrs. Jervin blinked and sized Jiang Man up, "I remember now, you were a student at the Royal Ballet Academy in Paris."
Hu Hao translated for her.
Jiang Man nodded excitedly, "Yes, that’s me! I almost became Mrs. Jervin’s student, but unfortunately, I lacked a bit of talent, though I’m trying hard!"
"Very good, keep it up," Mrs. Jervin patted Jiang Man on the shoulder.
Encouraged, Jiang Man felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
The woman before her was her idol!
A world-class ballet dancer, although retired, she was still the president of the International Ballet Association.
And she was still taking on apprentices, dedicated to training world-class ballet seeds.
Ahhh...
Jiang Man internally screamed, so happy she wanted to jump up.
She had met her idol at such an event?
And had chatted with her?
Most importantly, her idol actually recognized her?
"Thank you for helping me translate just now," Jiang Man said as Mrs. Jervin walked away, bringing two glasses of wine, "This drink is on me."
Hu Hao raised his eyebrows, amused as he looked at the young girl before him, finding her very cute.
"You’re treating me?"
"Mhm," Jiang Man nodded.
Hu Hao laughed and took the glass, "Everything here today is on my family’s tab, and you say you’re treating me?"
"Ah?" Jiang Man exclaimed in embarrassment, "Just kidding."
"No worries, I’ll drink this," Hu Hao picked up his glass and drained it in one go.
"Little sister, you’re very cute!" he placed the empty glass back on the server’s tray, his smile radiant, "See you around."
"See you around..." Jiang Man felt so embarrassed she wanted to crawl into a hole.
She had made a fool of herself right in front of the host.
"Hey, can I ask you who he is?" she asked a server next to her, pointing at Hu Hao’s departing figure.
"Hu family’s fourth young master," the waiter bowed respectfully, "is getting married today and he is his own older brother." He lifted his foot and left.
Jiang Man watched Hu Hao’s departing figure, deep in thought.
So, he was Jiang Man’s fourth brother.
It turned out that being cherished by an older brother felt rather nice.
Her lips involuntarily curled up, and she absentmindedly returned to the old lady’s side.
"Who is that young girl? Why do I see that Duchess Wright and Mrs. Jervin are so close to her?"
"Not just close, almost flattering."
"You didn’t see, she was the most casually dressed in the whole venue, she must have a powerful identity to dare to do so."
A few people passed by Jiang Man, interrupting her thoughts.
The old lady also heard their conversation and couldn’t help but ask Jiang Man, "The person they’re talking about, is it Manman?"
"I’m not sure," Jiang Man shook her head.
She looked around, there were many guests, all dressed in evening gowns.
Including her and the old lady, who were also dressed formally.
Who could be dressed casually?
She had just seen Jiang Man, indeed dressed very casually.
She remembered she was wearing a set of casual clothes?
It couldn’t be Jiang Man, she remembered seeing a little girl in a Lolita dress, probably they were talking about her.
She couldn’t believe that Mrs. Jervin would be so respectful to Jiang Man.
Even if Jiang Man was a Divine Doctor, very talented, she couldn’t be saving people around the world, with celebrities across the globe owing her favors, could she?
"It might be that girl in the Lolita dress, she was just standing here."
Jiang Man looked around, searching for that out-of-place figure.
"Is it that one?" The old lady’s vision wasn’t very clear; she put on her reading glasses.
Jiang Man followed her gaze and saw a little girl in a pink Lolita dress walking out of the castle.
She was holding a doll, dressed very childishly, indeed not fitting in with today’s wedding atmosphere.
"It should be her..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw behind the Lolita-dressed girl another girl in a silver sequined suit.
She was tall, about 1.72 meters, with perfect proportions, the suit accentuating her impressive legs.
She had a low ponytail at the back of her head, her features refined, her expression cold.
She walked with great authority, reminiscent of the ’Dominant Lord’ often mentioned in comics.
Extremely forceful and cool.
Her appearance instantly attracted many eyes.
Everyone forgot the fine wine in their hands, staring intently at her.
They say exquisite beauty transcends gender.
That was the case for Jiang Man, her features were delicate, combining a cold and arrogant air.
That disdainful, untouchable vibe from the high ground.
"Who is she? The young people these days are so beautiful, even in the entertainment industry she would be top tier."
"Her outfit looks familiar, isn’t it similar to what Mr. Lu wore?"
"Could it be matching outfits?"
Suddenly, the guests were abuzz.
Before everyone could figure out who she was, a deep, husky voice rang out.
"She is my granddaughter, Jiang Man!"
As one, the crowd turned toward the voice.
They automatically cleared a path.
A sharp-suited Hu Xianyun, exceptionally dashing, was assisting the white-haired, visibly old Mr. Hu of the Hu family.
Mr. Hu, although using a cane and walking with difficulty, seemed spirited.
The crowd was stunned.
The rumor had been that Mr. Hu had awakened.
They thought it was just a publicity stunt, but it turned out to be true!
