It was just too bad that Liu Ruoyan had no idea that her dreams would never come true as the man he's been eyeing for the long time was already married. The title "Queen of Diamonds" that she was coveting was already occupied by another woman, not because she was married to Feng Tianyi, but because she was the co-owner of Xiao Xing Diamond Co.

There was a half hour break after the first three diamonds were sold. The guests took this opportunity to converse with each other over drinks. Dinner was also served at this time. While the guests were still losing their minds over the colored diamonds, the news of Song Huifen's arrival spread amongst them.

They all snapped their heads towards the doorway and saw the empress dowager announcing her presence in the most unexpected way. The public was under the impression that she was severely ill. However, seeing Song Huifen now, it was obvious that the rumors about her were baseless. She still had the vigor and domineering presence that easily made her the center of attention.

Wang Ruoxi unconsciously tightened her grip on her wine glass. She initially thought that the rumors saying Song Huifen was gravely ill were true, hence she accepted her stepson's invitation to come here. It's been a while since she last attended a star studded event like this, so how could she let this chance slip easily?

'Why is she here?' She asked herself.

But to find out that Song Huifen was here and just fine, Wang Ruoxi felt like a dark shadow was cast over her. She had tried for so long to avoid this woman, as she was aware that people would compare her to Song Huifen again.

"Oh, who's the little guy escorting her today? He looks so cute and adorable!"

"Ah, I think I've seen him somewhere before."

"My goodness. He looks like Feng Tianyi. Is this child his son?"

Whispers spread amongst the guests as Song Huifen, holding Little Feiyu's hand, made their way towards Feng Tianyi and took a seat at his table. Xiao Bao released his grandmother's hand and chose to sit on his father's lap, immediately confirming the speculations. It was impossible to deny that the young boy was Feng Tianyi's son, given the uncanny resemblance between the two

"Where's Mommy?" Xiao Bao asked once he settled on his father's lap. Tonight, he was wearing a black suit like his father, but the two top buttons of his shirt were left unbuttoned, giving him a more boyish look, rather than a child pretending to be an a.d.u.l.t.

"Mommy is with your Auntie Xin right now. Do you want to go and see her?" Feng Tianyi asked.

The young boy shook his head. He knew that his mother would be busy later and he had to wait for his twin sister to return with their Auntie Meili. He looked around and noticed everyone's eyes on him. Xiao Bao chose to ignore them and leisurely ate the dessert in front of him instead.

Several guests made their way towards Song Huifen and greeted her. If she was as healthy as this, then the rumors that the Qing Tian Group was in trouble were baseless. How can the empress dowager allow it to happen? No wonder Feng Tianyi was arrogant when he dealt with Zion Inc. It's because his mother was still there to support him.

"Lady Song, are you feeling better now? We heard that you've fallen ill recently."

"Ah, yes. I'm supposed to be lying on a sick bed right now, is it?" Song Huifen said, her voice laced with amus.e.m.e.nt. "I really don't know where these rumors came from. I didn't think someone would want me dead so soon."

The guests were taken aback by her words. Though they knew that the empress dowager was a straightforward person and didn't mince her words, they didn't expect themselves to be on the receiving end. They exchanged a few words and greetings to Song Huifen before excusing themselves.

Song Huifen was still as domineering as ever. There were only a couple of people who could stand next to her and won't be intimidated by her regal presence.

Her eyes then caught Tang Moyu on the other side of the banquet hall, surrounded by Xing Yiyue's circle of friends. The old woman tried not to roll her eyes. Xing Yiyue never learned her lesson. She shouldn't risk herself by picking a fight with any members of the Song family.

Alas, some idiots preferred to be an idiot for the rest of their lives, and Xing Yiyue was constantly proving herself to be one of them. They would only learn their lessons the hard way and they might not be aware of what hit them until it was too late.

"Aren't you going to help Moyu? It seems like Miss Liu and Madam Feng wanted a piece of her." Song Huifen asked her son, who was busy wiping the chocolate smeared on Xiao Bao's cheek.

Feng Tianyi lifted his head and turned to look at where his wife was. Since Tang Moyu stepped inside the banquet hall, he couldn't keep his eyes off her. He was itching to run towards her and draw her into his embrace to let everyone know that she was his and would only be his woman.

His eyes narrowed when he realized that his mother was right. His stupid little brother, along with his wife and Liu Ruoyan, were daring enough to bully his woman in front of him.

"Baobao, will you please accompany your Uncle Yan and Mommy Fen for awhile? I need to help your mommy." Feng Tianyi put down his son gently on the seat and adjusted the little guy's coat.

Xiao Bao followed his father's and Mommy Fen's gazes and saw his mother being surrounded by a group of people from afar, two of them he recognized at once. One was the Old Auntie who dared to snatch his birthday present for his mommy, while the other was the weird auntie who dared to flirt with their daddy while his mommy wasn't around.
