He Was Shining With The Stars Chapter 33: The birthday party

The whole building was rented for her birthday party, with the great hall on the first floor the main venue. Guests could not only enjoy high-end customized meals, but also relish performances by foreign singers in the back garden after signing in.

The upstairs were five-star hotel rooms, where some guests from other cities could stay for a few days.

It was the first time that Ye had participated in such an event. She followed by Mu's side and thus attracted a lot of attention.

Since it was last reported that Ye Shiwei was Mu Tingchen's niece, they had never been publicly photographed.

Today was their second public appearance and the media would certainly not miss this chance.

It took Ye quite a while before they finally got away from all those cameras. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

She nudged Mu and said discontentedly, “You stay away from me. The cameras are on me all because of you. Look at that group of women, they're staring at me as if looking at their enemies. It's so annoying.”

Mu pinched her cheek, with a fit of sensation stirred up consequently aside.

Ye stepped back quickly.

“Spare me!”

When there happened to be a few friends on business coming over to toast him, Ye took the opportunity to slip away on the pretext of having to go to the restroom.

After she hid around the corner and was sure they couldn't see her, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Going out with Mu was simply riskier than going out with a lion …

After she fully calmed down, Ye looked around and all she could see were people in fancy clothes.

The lights in the hall suddenly dimmed.

There was only a glimmer of light left on the stage in the hall.

Liao Meiling walked slowly onto the stage in a nude fishtail dress that fitted her figure just right. She had a slim waist, a cheek about the size of a palm, and a face of perfect proportions. She just showed extraordinary air.

As soon as she appeared on the stage, she grabbed all attention.

She couldn't be more beautiful.

Ye curled her lips in disbelief. She just couldn't figure out what Childe Shen was thinking in his minds to fool around outside when he had such a beautiful wife in fact.

Liao said a few words on stage, expressing her thanks for all present guests and similar stuff.

A video was projected onto the wall on the stage at last. It was congratulation from Childe Shen, who also expressed his apologies for being unable to make for the party due to business out of the city.

But everyone at present knew clearly the real reason of his absence. He married Miss Liao originally for commercial reasons. There was no love between them at all.

They did participate in several activities together over these years, but it was all an act to the media.

Ye had made great efforts to get Mu to bring her here in order to get to know Liao Meiling.

Li Haina was the only clue of her father's disappearance. But she would definitely not give her any useful information. She wanted Ye to suffer forever.

And Childe Shen had a very close relationship with Family Li. Therefore, Ye thought it might work if she could make a friend with Liao Meiling and get some information from Childe Shen through her.

All Ye wanted was to investigate her father's case.

While Liao Meiling was the focus of tonight's party, it wouldn't be easy to get close to her.

But with Mu Tingchen this middle person, Ye didn't think it was a very hard thing.

She deliberately stood very close to Liao Meiling and pretended to look around as if looking for someone.

Just as what she had designed in mind beforehand, she made herself bump into Liao Meiling on purpose while pretending she hadn't noticed her.

“Ah! I'm so sorry!”

Ye looked at her with an apologetic smile.

“I'm looking for my uncle. Don't know where he has gone.”

Away from the limelight, Ye finally got a closer look of Liao Meiling and found she was much more beautiful than before.

She had compact skin with seemingly no visible pores, and got a pair of beautiful almond-shaped eyes, slanting eyebrows and bright red lips. She emitted domineering air from top to toe.

Liao Meiling frowned and glanced at the girl in front of her, feeling a little familiar.
