The next morning, Mo Rao received news from the production team that the filming would be delayed for a few days mainly because of Lin Xing.
Of course, Mo Rao had no objections. She only replied simply, “Okay.”
Coincidentally, she had something to do these two days. She needed to go to the Qu family’s home.
On the day of the Qu family’s business banquet, Shen Feng came to pick Mo Rao up. Mo Yuan naturally came along as well.
“Everyone from the Qu family will be here today. They will definitely notice you.” Shen Feng reminded.
Mo Rao knew very well that this was the first time she would come into close contact with the Qu family. Her previous conflict with Qu Ru was only a personal grudge. Now that it involved her mother’s background, the meaning was completely different.
She looked 70 to 80% similar to her mother. If Old Madam Qu saw her, would she think of anything?
Mo Rao had mixed feelings. She had lost her mother when she was young and had never known that her mother was actually adopted by her grandmother.

Even this hotel belonged to the Qu family.
Mo Rao got out of the car and followed Shen Feng to the banquet hall. When she appeared, everyone who knew her was stunned. Then, their gazes couldn’t help but fall on another person.
Fu Ying was chatting with a few business partners. When he saw Mo Rao appear, he fixed his gaze on her.
Everyone couldn’t help but discuss softly.
“Isn’t she Fu Ying’s ex-wife? Why is she here?”
“She has won the Best Actress Award and is quite famous in the country. I didn’t expect her to come to the banquet.”
“The man beside her is Shen Feng. He’s her current boyfriend and Fu Ying’s cousin. What an eye-opener.”
“She’s quite scheming, but she’s indeed beautiful as well!”
“Didn’t they say that Fu Ying divorced her because of Qu Ru? Yet she still dared to come to the Qu family’s banquet. Doesn’t she feel embarrassed?”
Mo Rao naturally noticed everyone’s quizzical gazes and whispers. Fu Ying’s burning gaze was even harder for her to ignore.
In response, Mo Rao took the initiative to hold Shen Feng’s arm intimately.
Shen Feng was stunned and looked at Mo Rao’s fair and slender wrist in surprise. His eyes were filled with joy. Even though he knew that Mo Rao was just putting on an act for Fu Ying, he was still happy. He was willing to be her shield for the rest of his life.
“Don’t be nervous. I’m here,” Shen Feng said softly.
“Okay.” Mo Rao nodded and looked up at him with a smile. Her gentle and cute smile made Fu Ying’s heart burn with jealousy.
His expression instantly darkened. Without a word, he left the center of the banquet venue and went somewhere.
Seeing Fu Ying disappear into the crowd, Mo Rao heaved a sigh of relief and subconsciously let go of Shen Feng.
Shen Feng’s joy instantly disappeared, but he respected Mo Rao’s decision.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Mo Yuan watched from the side, he felt that Shen Feng was really too gentlemanly.
How could he be so gentle even when competing for a woman? Sometimes, men had to be domineering and possessive!
“Mo Rao, you actually came here to attend my family’s banquet?” Qu You appeared with a glass of red wine in her hand and she looked at Mo Rao with widened eyes.
She recalled that in the past, she had earnestly reminded Mo Rao to capture Fu Ying’s heart and not let Qu Ru win. She didn’t expect Mo Rao to be so disappointing in the end and divorce Fu Ying. She even disappeared.
Mo Rao looked at Miss Qu. If her mother was really the lost daughter of the Qu family, she and Qu You could be considered sisters.
Qu You’s personality was completely different from Qu Ru’s. She was very honest. Mo Rao didn’t dislike her. She just wasn’t that familiar with her.
“Yes.” Mo Rao nodded and didn’t say anything else.
“Where’s Fu Ying? He was here just now!” Qu You looked around for Fu Ying, then she suddenly looked at Shen Feng. She smiled as she said, “I’m sorry, I forgot that your current boyfriend is still here.”
Shen Feng smiled, but didn’t speak.
Qu You rolled her eyes. “Alright, the two of you mutes can stay here together.”
She was curious, so she just came here to listen to gossip. Since the two of them wouldn’t talk to her, she wouldn’t be a nuisance.
After Qu You left, Mo Rao and Shen Feng found a seat and sat down. Their goal for today wasn’t to make friends or discuss business, let alone enjoy wine.
