Chapter 132: A Change in the Banquet

After the two of them finished discussing this matter and seeing that the surrounding people weren’t paying much attention to them, they found a suitable opportunity and left.

After parting with Jiang Yan, Mo Zhu stood at one side, drinking her fruit juice in boredom as she pondered over the possibility of something major happening in Beijing. Many noble ladies walked over one after another and greeted her politely. She responded to them all plainly.

Compared to Mo Zhu, Huo Xuan was very busy tonight. Although this engagement banquet was specially prepared for the Huo family to give Mo Zhu an identity, in the eyes of others, there were more than just a few things that could be done using the Huo family’s banquet as a platform.

Before they came, everyone had already inquired about Mo Zhu’s identity clearly. It was nothing more than a story of a pheasant turning into a phoenix. A country bumpkin from the countryside had been fancied by the Huo family and by a freak combination of factors, she turned into the Young Madam of the Huo family in a flash. It was a perfect Cinderella story.

Towards a small fry like Mo Zhu, who had no power or status, they didn’t care at all. The reason why everyone was so supportive today, other than the students of Class Eight, was all because of the Huo family.

Thus, after introducing Mo Zhu’s identity, Huo Tao and Huo Xuan were surrounded by people sent by the various noble and large families to attend the engagement banquet. Chen Man’s situation wasn’t any better. Just as she parted with Mo Zhu, she was pulled away by a rich lady from god knows where to reminisce about the past.

As the guests were toasting each other and enjoying themselves, someone exclaimed, “Ah, quickly, look what it is!”

Whispers instantly came from the crowd. At this moment, Mo Zhu’s gaze was naturally attracted over. She raised her eyes and looked coldly at the center of the chaos.

On the big screen in the main hall that had originally been occupied with the word ‘happiness’ in red was suddenly replaced by a photo of Mo Zhu and the middle-aged man sitting extremely close together.

In the bottom right corner of the photo, there were a few bold and red words: “Does the Huo family know that Mo Zhu, their future daughter-in-law, is a slut who doesn’t know her place?”

At this scene, everyone’s expressions changed slightly. They looked at each other and saw Huo Tao, who was already furious.

The man could no longer control his anger. He naturally believed in Mo Zhu’s character. However, someone had deliberately released such a photo. No matter how he explained it, there would be people secretly criticizing Mo Zhu behind his back for this matter.

After taking two steps, Huo Tao came to the equipment table and cut off the power supply on the big screen in the main hall. He looked coldly at the equipment officer who was sitting in front of the table with cold sweat and shouted angrily, “What exactly is going on!”

The staff member was also stunned. He knew that he couldn’t afford to offend the person in front of him. He wiped his sweat while trembling. “Mr. Huo, I, I really don’t know why the screen suddenly became like this. The computer is hacked by some program. I couldn’t control it just now.”

The conversation between the two was not soft. As Mo Zhu was not far away, she naturally heard it.

After pondering quietly for a few seconds, Mo Zhu quietly left the main hall and borrowed a computer from the hotel’s staff.

The sound of typing came from the keyboard. Not long later, Mo Zhu found what she wanted and smiled confidently. She spoke briefly to the staff and brought the notebook back to the banquet hall.
