Several big guys were surprised in their hearts, but their expressions did not change.
They never expected that he would say that.
Anthony, who had just asked the question, was slightly stunned, and then he said jokingly: “Hello, Miss Bei. I thought Hughes would die alone, but I didn’t expect that a beautiful angel like you would come by and save him.”
Bei Yutang smiled at the elegant man who spoke humorously and said, “No, he saved me.”
She turned her head to look at him and happened to meet his gaze. Their eyes met unexpectedly, and they stared at each other, feeling warm in their hearts.
The big shots around were very surprised when they saw this scene.
He didn’t look like he was acting, but if they were to believe that a ruthless and cold-blooded man like him suddenly fell in love with someone, it would be too shocking.
Several big shots looked at each other.
There were many outstanding daughters in their family. Many people had wanted to marry their daughters to him, but now it seemed a little uncertain.
Several business tycoons also greeted Bei Yutang.
Before she was introduced, she naturally didn’t catch their eye. Now that she was the future wife of Hughes Rockefy, her identity was completely different.
Because the weight and status of the two were different, it also determined whether she was qualified to talk to them.
Bei Yutang had always been by Hughes’s side, listening to him communicating with various political celebrities and business tycoons. She only needed to accompany him and keep smiling.
After walking around, Bei Yutang felt that her face was almost frozen from smiling.
Bei Yutang took advantage of the gap and leaned over to whisper in his ear: “I’ll go to the dressing room.”
Hughes nodded and let go of her hand.
Bei Yutang asked the waiter for directions to the dressing room, walked through the banquet hall, and went to the back of the banquet.
She looked at the person in the mirror and rubbed the corners of her stiff lips with her hand.
Whether it was a palace banquet or a banquet in the modern world, she didn’t like this kind of occasion. However, it was one thing to dislike it, but she still had to attend it.
As Bei Yutang came out of the dressing room, a waiter walked toward her.
“Excuse me, are you Miss Bei Yutang?”
“I am.”
“Mr. Rockefy asked me to take you to the second floor. Miss, please come this way.” The waiter said respectfully.
Bei Yutang followed him toward the back of the manor. The long corridor seemed to have no end in sight.
When the two of them went up to the second floor, Bei Yutang asked, “Is he upstairs?”
“Yes. Mr. Rockefy is waiting for you upstairs.” The waiter replied swiftly.
When they reached a room at the end, the waiter opened the door and said, “Mr. Rockefy is waiting for you in the room.”
As soon as Bei Yutang stepped into the room, the waiter seemed to see her hesitation. He pushed her into the room while she was not paying attention and quickly closed the door.
Bei Yutang looked at the closed door behind her and knew that it was locked without trying.
When she turned around, she saw four burly men standing in the room. When they saw her, they showed malicious expressions on their faces.
Before they were about to step forward, Bei Yutang asked with a smile, “Can anyone tell me who sent you here?”
When the waiter tricked her here using the name of Hughes, she had already seen through it, but she did not expose him and just went with the flow.
She wanted to see what the purpose of the person behind this was and also to test Hughes.
Why wouldn’t she do something that kills two birds with one stone?
