The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More

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.

The situation in the main hall had become a little chaotic due to the small episode just now. A few noble ladies who were usually on good terms with Chen Man could not help but go forward and ask.

“Mrs. Huo, what’s wrong with your daughter-in-law? She hasn’t even married into the Huo Family and this happened already. She might cause some trouble in the future!”

Before Chen Man could answer, another rich lady impatiently added, “That’s right, Madam Huo. It’s not that we look down on this country bumpkin, but the Huo family is such a prestigious family. If you allow a girl like this to be married into your family, your reputation will be ruined!”

Just as the two of them finished speaking, Chen Man could not help but flare up with a cold expression. “What nonsense are you talking about? The daughter-in-law of the Huo family is naturally an innocent and pure girl. Before the truth is investigated, no one can casually slander Xiao Zhu, or else it will be equivalent to slapping the Huo family’s face in public!”

Seeing how aggressive Chen Man was, the wealthy ladies did not want to provoke her. At this moment, they were starting to act as if they were mute.

As everyone was discussing, Huo Xuan walked in from the side door. He had left for a short ten minutes after receiving an urgent call from Mo Wu.

The moment the man entered, he heard the discussion in the main hall one after another. All sorts of mean and critical words were spat out from everyone’s mouths endlessly.

“Pfft, I didn’t expect the Huo family to have such a shameless daughter-in-law. Didn’t you see how close the two of them were in the photo on the big screen just now? I think this girl is just one that is greedy for their riches!”

“Exactly, exactly. No matter what, Young Master Huo is already considered a promising young man in his middle age. Furthermore, he has outstanding looks and outstanding abilities. It would be a great blessing if anyone could marry Young Master Huo. I didn’t expect this woman to be so ignorant!”
