Chapter 109 - Engagement Party 3

After the proposal, Ya Nuo and Huan Hei gave a toast to the audience and proceeded with the rest of the evening events. The Huang family attended their engagement party and Nana, was the most excited one. She hopped over like a hungry bunny and gave Ya Nuo a tight hug. If they were alone in a room right now, Nana would've shook Ya Nuo and asked her thousands of questions.

Since they're in public, Nana limited herself to a tight hug and a heartfelt message, "You better be happy, no, the happiest bride, wife, girl that I know, you hear me? From now on, you won't be alone. He better be someone you can lean on, or else I'll come knocking his teeth out of his mouth! Congratulations!"

Huan Hei kept his distance from Nana at first, and honestly didn't like how she clung to Ya Nuo so easily, but over time, he changed his opinion. He could tell that she was a sincere person and really wished the best for Ya Nuo. Therefore, he smiled and brushed her message off easily, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of her. She will only gain weight and never lose weight when she's with me. I'll make her happier than anyone could ever do."

Ya Nuo laughed at their childish talk, but was glad she met them. They were her treasure and she will protect their smiles like how they protect hers. While Huan Hei and Nana were having their childish comebacks, Ya Nuo felt a strange sensation from behind. She felt like somebody was watching her intently from behind, but when she turned around, nobody was there. Her instincts told her that there was someone there, but that person left that spot the moment they saw her turning around. Therefore, she kept track of the weird feeling and continued talking to the Huangs.

Ya Nuo looked around for her parents and brother, but felt disappointed when she didn't see them. Huan Hei knew what she was thinking and whispered, 'Don't worry, they're here, but it is not time for them to show their appearances yet. I already recorded and had the proposal, and everything that is happening, on live for them in their private vip guest room. You will see them very soon."

Ya Nuo smiled after hearing his words, "What are you planning?"

He chuckled mischievously, "As your fiance, I must avenge your sufferings by at least 0.05% to those bastards who schemed against you. Their misfortunes will begin starting tonight. Heh, you just need to be good and wait for the show to begin."

Qiu Rei walked over to the chatting couple and offered his congratulatory to them, "Congratulations sweetie! I knew I chose the right person for you. You, you lucky man! Hahahahaa, can I borrow your fiance for a few minutes? We have some men talk to do."

Ya Nuo smiled politely, "Of course, you can. I have something that I forgot to do as well. Look for me after you're done, darling." She winked before walking through the crowd to find Nana. She didn't have the chance to ask Nana to keep an eye on Mei Ching, so she had to hurry and tell her that.

While she was looking for Nana, she saw Mei Ching act suspiciously around the restroom area. Out of curiosity, Ya Nuo hid in a nearby room to see what she was up to. After Mei Ching walked out of the restroom, a layer of sweat could be seen on her forehead.

Ya Nuo thought to herself that it was odd because the air conditioner is blast on high, so she should be freezing, not sweating. After making sure that Mei Ching was gone, she entered the bathroom to see if there was anything in there that was out of place. After double checking everywhere, she couldn't find anything that seemed abnormal, but she had an unsettling feeling. Since she couldn't find anything, she shrugged and walked out.

It's been a while since Ya Nuo had worn heels, and the ones she was wearing right now is scraping her ankles. After getting out of the bathroom, she went back to the room where she was hiding before. Approximately eight minutes after she took off her heels and rested in the room, she heard familiar heel tapping noises and rants getting closer. It was Gu Wing hurrying down the hallway, probably heading to the restroom.

Ya Nuo locked the door to the room so Gu Wing wouldn't be able to enter even if she wanted to. Besides, it was a happy occasion, so it was more of a reason why she didn't want to see that woman's vulgar face. There was something unique about this room compared to other ones. The door looks like a mirror from the outside, but people who are inside the room can see the people who are outside.

Ya Nuo rubbed her foot as she watched Gu Wing shove the restroom door open and violently kicked it shut.

"Pffft, did she finally lose her mind after seeing how happy I was? Well~ This is what Karma tastes like~ It's almost time for me to go back or else Hei would be worried if he doesn't see me anywhere. Hmmm... I wonder if there's any medical kit in this room? Maybe there is a disinfectant spray and invisible bandaid. Let's see....Ah! found it!!"

When she turned around, she saw Mei Ching put up a restroom closed sign to prevent others from using the bathroom. After that, she entered the stock room that was next to the bathroom. Not long after that, Ya Nuo saw lights flickering from the restroom and heard Gu Wing scream on the top of her lungs. Not only did she scream, she even forgot to pull up her underwear when she ran out of the restroom.

Ya Nuo saw the evil smirk on Mei Ching's face and how she blended back into the crowd after Gu Wing ran out from the restroom. She knew something was wrong earlier, but couldn't find any evidence to support her suspicions. Now that she saw how terrified Gu Wing was after using the restroom, Mei Ching must've pulled some tricks to scare her.

Since everyone concentrated on Gu Wing's sudden untidiness and terrified reaction, Ya Nuo had a few minutes to spare and decided to investigate on what happened to Gu Wing when she was inside the bathroom.
