Billionaire's Adorable Sweet Wife-Chapter 953: Was Miss Su Beaten Down?

Over there, Yin Mingzhu returned to the Huo Mansion.

She appeared utterly dejected—

She also wanted to go home, back to her brother... She yearned for family affection.

...

The Huo Family was discussing serious matters; it turns out there were only three days left to elect the Charity Chairman. To stir up excitement for this annual event, a grand banquet would be held in Guangzhou tomorrow evening.

Old Master Huo praised, "Xishan, your votes have remained far ahead during these days."

Chen Xishan couldn’t help but be proud.

She took a sip of tea and said, "It’s just about 400,000 more votes than Miss Su."

Old Master Huo stroked his beard, "400,000 more, basically seals the victory!"

Others began congratulating in advance.

Yin Mingzhu listened distractedly; she did not believe Su Ruanruan would lose.

At that moment, Lu’er covered her mouth and giggled, "Tomorrow evening’s banquet, I doubt that Miss Su would dare attend! Being so badly thrashed by the Young Mistress, if it were me, I’d cover myself in shame and never face people again."

She was arrogant, but Chen Xishan lightly reprimanded, "When you’re in a high position, you should be more humble."

Lu’er still smiled.

Back at the courtyard, the mistress and servant started speaking candidly.

Chen Xishan asked, "The 200,000 votes I additionally bought, did you lock them in the safe?"

Lu’er replied cheerfully, "Rest assured, Young Mistress, all bought with solid cash, I naturally locked them securely."

Chen Xishan felt relieved.

After a moment, she revealed a malicious expression, "Su Ruanruan has pushed me too far, so she can’t blame me for using tough measures! Although this investment is somewhat large, as long as I keep this position, recovering some perks is a breeze."

Lu’er also accompanied her with a smile.

The following night, at a certain five-star hotel.

The Charity Association held a banquet; influential figures gathered, lively and bustling.

Despite previous turmoil, Chen Xishan was still beloved by the people, leading in votes by a long shot.

Others praised, "Madam Xishan truly stands unshaken!"

Chen Xishan donned a pale long dress, appearing gentle and humble.

She said, "It’s just that I have a heart to serve everyone."

The crowd further praised.

At this time, someone mentioned Su Ruanruan, scoffing, "Wouldn’t that Miss Su be so ungraceful, seeing her votes lag behind Madam Xishan, and not even want to attend such occasions?"

Chen Xishan showed great empathy, "Perhaps Miss Su is occupied tonight? I heard her husband does substantial business, and she plans to open a hospital in Guangzhou too, they are truly adept in business!"

These remarks had an effect.

Those people felt Su Ruanruan was not genuine in her charity intentions.

The chatter continued.

In front of the hotel, a black sedan slowly stopped... The driver opened the car door.

Su Ruanruan gracefully stepped out; tonight she wore a golden evening gown.

The night had just had rain.

She walked in the night glow, radiant and dazzling.

Instantly drawing all eyes, people marveled at her beauty.

Chen Xishan clenched her teeth: plain looks are her deepest pain!

Su Ruanruan wasn’t affected by the vote count; she felt quite good, taking a glass of champagne from the attendant.

With great elegance, she congratulated Chen Xishan.

She said, "Madam Xishan’s reputation in Guangzhou truly makes me admire."

Chen Xishan also lightly played with her high-stemmed glass, smiling, "Indeed many support me, naturally, if I am elected, I will wholeheartedly serve and not betray everyone’s trust."

Su Ruanruan led the applause.

Chen Xishan’s eyes turned cold: now trying to cozy up, too late!

She intended to embarrass Su Ruanruan.

So when the host invited her on stage to speak, she deliberately mentioned Su Ruanruan, warmly inviting her to speak as well.

Clearly, it was intended as humiliation!

The ladies present understood well.

Mrs. Zhou also attended the banquet; her folding fan closed in hand.

She said to Mrs. Xu, "This seems bad! Comparing on stage now, tomorrow’s vote count will differ even more; I must help Ruanruan."

Mrs. Xu was equally concerned.

It seemed...Chen Xishan ultimately held a slight edge!

While they worried, Su Ruanruan smiled gently.

She softly said, "Just coincidentally, I have something to say too."
