Tang Moyu heard Lu Tianxin sighed beside her. Well, she couldn't really blame her cousin. Lu Tianxin had first hand experience dealing with this family. She still hadn't forgotten how Xing Yiyue tried to tarnish Tang Moyu's reputation during the Ye Corporation's banquet.
"If they are smart, they won't dare to cause a scene here." Lu Tianxin said.
"Do you really think Xing Yiyue is that smart? Just look at how she's glaring daggers at me." Tang Moyu countered. Now, that's new, the empress thought.
This was something she hadn't seen on Xing Yiyue. That woman always had her innocent mask to hide her blackened heart, so what had changed today?
Tang Moyu chuckled inwardly. Did Xing Yiyue think that she had what it takes to suppress a person like her? Now that she had every information about Xing Yiyue, cheap tricks won't do anymore. Xing Yiyue would only walk on a landmine if she insisted on seeking her death in Tang Moyu's hands.
Even if Xing Yiyue begged on her knees right now, what made her believe that her cheap knees would be worth anything ro Tang Moyu?
One more thing, wasn't she the one responsible for making a mess between them? Tang Moyu already knew what Xing Yiyue was trying to achieve, but shouldn't she be the one who needed to deal with the situation she created herself?
Do people still know the concept of taking responsibility for their actions, instead of washing their hands and blame others for their misfortune? Tang Moyu wondered.
"Better ignore her. I still can't believe you actually invited them here." She heard Lu Tianxin said.
"That's something my husband decided. Why would I willingly invite pigs inside my house?" Tang Moyu countered, but she knew well that Feng Tianyi just wanted to let his little brother see the difference between them, since six years had passed.
From where she was seated, Tang Moyu could see her husband making short conversations with other guests. Some government officials had arrived with their wives and other companions, no doubt looking forward to seeing the special diamond collection Xiao Xing was about to showcase tonight.
After all, this was one of the reasons why Xiao Xing's banquet was popular these days. Since it became one of the largest distributors of diamonds in the country, it was only natural that people would be curious about what kind of diamonds they could expect from Xiao Xing.
Tang Moyu also expected that someone will try to nitpick on Xiao Xing's diamond collections. Since there would also be jewelers invited all over the country, Xiao Xing was pressured to meet everyone's expectations. But would the empress and the devil allow them to criticize them easily?
Tonight, everyone will see that Tang Moyu and Feng Tianyi didn't need Tang Enterprise or Feng Conglomerate to pave the way for their future. The two of them will prove that they were way better than their predecessors and didn't need to rely on old money just to succeed in the industry.
Finally, the banquet started. Meng Yanran appeared on the stage with an older man in his forties, the marketing director of Xiao Xing, Yan Xie, as tonight's emcees.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we, at Xiao Xing Diamond Co. welcome you to our inauguration ceremony." Yan Xie announced as he officially started the event.
Feng Tianyi was below the stage, giving the two a nod while Tang Moyu crossed her legs, allowing her shapely leg to be seen from the slit of her black evening gown. Under the soft lights of the chandeliers, it gave her cold beauty a more ethereal look that people couldn't easily ignore, especially Feng Tianhua.
Xing Yiyue bit her lip and clenched her fists on her side when she noticed her husband's dazed expression as he looked towards Tang Moyu.
Why? Why does everytime Feng Tianhua sees Tang Moyu, he would always forget about her, his own wife? Wasn't he the one who abandoned the empress in the past? So why was he looking at her as if he was regretting choosing her instead of Tang Moyu?
What else could she do to make sure that Tang Moyu is rid for good? If she hadn't come back… If Tang Moyu hadn't come back, then Feng Tianhua's feelings wouldn't have been easily swayed by her mere presence.
Did Feng Tianhua still hold feelings for Tang Moyu, or was it guilt and remorse that was stopping him from moving forward?
Yes, it had to be. Xing Yiyue told herself. It's because the two had known each other and had been betrothed for so many years that Feng Tianhua felt something for Tang Moyu. So long that he held such feelings for the empress, Xing Yiyue would always have to be wary of Tang Moyu's presence.
The first part of the diamond collection had been introduced and guests could only stare at them in shock and awe. The diamonds were presented in a very pleasing presentation they literally took everyone's breath away.
While everyone was familiar with the white or colorless diamonds, as those were the world rarest and most beautiful stone, not many were familiar with the even more valuable and aesthetically pleasing types of diamond: extremely rare natural colored diamonds.
The guests were left flabbergasted at the sight of the precious diamonds. Even the jewelers couldn't contain their excitement over seeing the spectacular scene in front of them, while women from the socialite couldn't take their eyes off them.
Colored diamonds were extremely rare and much more so than clear diamonds. In fact, the formation process of these colored diamonds occurs so rarely that less than a carat of colored diamond is found in every ten thousand clear diamonds.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we present to you the first collection of diamonds from Xiao Xing Diamond Co., The seven rainbow diamonds. Please feel free to bid. Our starting bid is $300,000." Yan Xie announced.
Everyone's jaws drop at the price. What? Did he just say $300,000?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
