One and Only: Doting CEO's Infinite Love

Chapter 507 - 505 Yuan Xiaopang’s Love (Part 2)

Auspicious Day.Yuan Yumeng never thought she’d see Huo Junting again at his engagement party with Yuan Yuqi—

He was dressed in a tailored tailcoat, looking as radiant as warm jade, his smile bright as the moon, holding his young fiancée’s hand, engaging in charming conversation with the guests, utterly satisfied.

Yuan Yumeng was somewhat captivated; wasn’t this precisely what she wanted?

As long as he lived happily and smiled blissfully, who stood beside him didn’t seem to matter as much.

Selfishly, she wished that her "big brother" had long vanished into the river of time, so that he belonged only to her, only to Xiaopang.

With many guests around, she as the family member was just a simple accompaniment. After admiring the loving couple for a while, Yuan Yumeng went to the buffet area, picked up a plate and utensils, and began to slowly choose—

True to being the engagement party of the Huo Family’s head, they had managed to invite the renowned culinary god, Mr. Zhou, as the chef.

For the sake of this name alone, she planned to indulge, not missing out on such a good opportunity.

However, a sudden lack of appetite struck her, only ending up choosing a dessert, a cream pudding...

Yuan Yumeng didn’t want to draw any attention, secretly slipping into a corner, turning away from the crowd to enjoy the food...

"Sis—"

Suddenly, a sweet, clear voice came from behind.

Yuan Yumeng almost choked in surprise, coughing as she turned to see Yuan Yuqi in her splendid gown standing there. "Wha-what’s the matter?"

"You almost made me choke by speaking so suddenly!"

Instantly, the smile on Yuan Yuqi’s face faded, "Sis, there’s something I need your help with, could you?"

Yuan Yumeng instinctively felt it wasn’t anything good, frowning, "Go on, whether I help or not depends on what you need."

Yuan Yuqi glanced around discreetly, then pulled Yuan Yumeng outside, heading to the backyard...

At that moment, the moon was bright and stars sparse, a gentle breeze blowing.

Even with her warmth-holding bulk, Yuan Yumeng still felt a bit cold, starting to shiver, "Quickly, it’s freezing out here."

"Sis." Yuan Yuqi seemed hesitant to speak.

"If you don’t say anything, I’m going back inside." Yuan Yumeng didn’t want to freeze to an ice sculpture outside.

Yuan Yuqi immediately reached out to stop her, "Sis, wait, take a look at this first!"

"What is it?" Yuan Yumeng took her phone.

Upon seeing, it was a message: [Yuan Yuqi, if you dare get engaged, I’ll cause a scene. Let’s see what happens!]

"What the heck?" Yuan Yumeng glanced at the sender, a series of phone numbers. "Who is this?"

"..."

Yuan Yuqi was nearly brought to tears, "He, he was my ex-boyfriend, he often lost his temper with me during our relationship, and I couldn’t take it any longer, so I broke up with him. I don’t know how he found out about my engagement, and then I received this text this morning..."

"Has he come?" Yuan Yumeng asked again.

An engagement party is a significant event; if something really goes wrong, won’t it become a joke for relatives and friends?

Yuan Yuqi shook her head, "No."

"Then what are you worried about?! He’s probably just trying to scare you, let’s go inside! Freezing out here..."

"No, it’s not possible. I know his personality; there’s no way he’s just bluffing, he’ll definitely show up. Sis, I’m begging you, help me out here. Mom and Dad are both present, they’ve looked forward to this engagement party for a long time, if it gets ruined they’ll be really upset, especially mom, you know she has a heart condition, I’m really afraid she’ll—"

Yuan Yumeng paused her departure, clenching her hands tightly. Yuan Yuqi was always like this, effortlessly striking her weak points.

She could disregard sisterly bonds but couldn’t ignore the debt of upbringing.

Turning around, she took a deep breath, "Go ahead, how do you want me to help?"
