Chapter 196 - 196: An Awkward atmosphere
The Dharma Cultivator stared at her face for a few seconds before recognizing Hai Tang.
After spending time with Hai Tang, Fa Xiu had deeply engraved her features in his mind. Although he had never seen Hai Tang’s entire face, he could recognize her through her familiar and moving eyes.
Those who could sit in the middle of the first row of the charity gala were definitely either rich or noble. Although the Dharma Cultivator had guessed that Hai Tang’s identity was not ordinary, he did not expect Hai Tang’s identity to be so noble. His heart immediately sank.
Even though he was a young and outstanding racer and a popular celebrity, his status could only be used to promote himself to the rich.
Hai Tang was also looking at him calmly at this moment, clearly not wanting to acknowledge him. The Dharma Cultivator could only suppress the fluctuations in his heart and pretend not to recognize Hai Tang, shifting his gaze elsewhere.
At this moment, the organizer’s representative walked to Dharma Xiu’s side and said to him,” That’s Mrs. Gu and Miss Gu from the Gu family. It’s rare for them to come. The Gu family has always been generous and not difficult to serve. I’ll send you to sell jewelry to them.”
‘ What did you say?” The Dharma Cultivator’s attention was not on the jewelry.
He tilted his head and asked in disbelief,” What did you say?” Who is Mrs. Gu, Gu Yun’s wife?”
The person in charge pointed at Hai Tang.” It’s that lady in the white dress. Her marriage to Gu Yun was extremely low-key. There was no publicity to the outside world at all. Fortunately, I was well-informed. That’s why I knew about this news.”
” Mrs. Gu and Ms. Gu are very respected. You have to be careful with them. Don’t make them angry,” the person in charge reminded.
The news that Hai Tang was already married was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Fa Xiu. His heart immediately felt a sharp pain. For a moment, he was actually speechless.
He knew Hai Tang’s husband, Gu Yun, and knew that he was the CEO of the Gu Corporation. He was a proud son of heaven and had a noble status. Gu Yun’s class was something that he could not cross no matter how hard he tried to earn money.
Before this, Fa Xiu had thought that as long as he persisted, Hai Tang would always be able to see him.
But now, a strong sense of defeat and disappointment surged into his heart. Seeing that the Dharma Cultivator was silent, the person-in-charge thought that he had already agreed. He patted his shoulder to encourage him and left.
The Dharma Cultivator finally understood that Hai Tang had covered her face to hide her identity.
And Hai Tang pretended not to know him, presumably because she felt that with her status as Mrs. Gu, it was not appropriate for her to interact with him.
If he exposed Hai Tang, she would never come into contact with him again.
The person-in-charge had already left, and the other celebrities on stage had already begun to go off stage to promote themselves. Fa Xiu could only brace himself and walk towards Hai Tang’s seat.
Hai Tang also did not expect that the celebrity who came over was actually a spell cultivator.
‘ Hello!” Hai Tang could only smile when she saw the Dharma Cultivator. She took the initiative to greet him.
“Hello, Mrs. Gu,” Fa Xiu replied in a hoarse voice.
Hai Tang’s heart skipped a beat, and she immediately suspected that the Dharma Cultivator might have recognized her. Should she acknowledge the Dharma Cultivator?
Hai Tang remembered that she usually wore a veil when she went to the shop, which covered her face. The Dharma Cultivator should not have remembered her appearance.
Thus, Hai Tang could only nod in response.
Gu Song did not notice the awkward atmosphere between the two. Instead, he held Hai Tang’s hand and whispered into her ear.” Sister-in-law, is he the racing champion this year?” I’m really handsome!”
” Yes,” Hai Tang smiled and replied softly.” Haiyuan has a good relationship with him.”
‘ No way, that little brat Hai Yuan knows a big star?” Gu Song said in surprise.
Fa Xiu subconsciously glanced at Hai Tang and felt that his gaze could no longer move away from Hai Tang’s face.
In order to prevent Hai Tang from discovering that he had already seen through her identity, Fa Xiu had no choice but to forcefully turn his face away from Hai Tang. Instead, he said to Gu Song in a business-like manner,” Hello, Miss Gu. Today, I’m in charge of introducing an emerald necklace.”
As soon as the Dharma Cultivator finished speaking, an attendant immediately raised the tray in front of Gu Song.
“The raw gemstone of this necklace was produced in the M Nation on the other side of the world…” Dharma Xiu continued stiffly..
