Chapter 492 - 492 My daughter, Princess of the Rao Family, Sia Rao!!
492 My daughter, Princess of the Rao Family, Sia Rao!!
Just as Mu Jun joined his friends, the host walked up to the stage to start the banquet officially.
“Ladies and gentlemen, a very warm evening. On behalf of the Rao family, we welcome you all for Ms. Rao’s eighteenth birthday banquet. I know many of you are curious to see Ms. Rao since she is going to make her official appearance for the very first time after more than a decade”
“I am extremely pleased to be the host for tonight’s banquet and take part in this joyous moment”
“Now I please welcome Mr. and Mrs. Rao to come on the stage” the host said with a smile
Under the thunderous applause, Mr. and Mrs. Rao walked to the stage hand in hand.
The moment Mr. Rao walked to the stage, the host bowed respectfully and passed the mic to him.
Holding the mike, Mr. Rao smiled at his wife before turning to the audience.
“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for sparing your time to take part in this joyous occasion. I feel extremely pleased to see so many of you are here to give blessings to my daughter on her special day. After more than a decade, my daughter has finally decided to acknowledge her identity publicly which is a happy moment for my family. I know many of you here are very eager to see my daughter so I won’t hold you up any longer. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome My daughter, the princess of the Rao family”
The moment Mr. Rao finished his words, the lights in the garden dimmed and the focus light shone on the door above the stairs.
.....
The artificial cherry blossom tree placed on either sides of the stairs lit up brightly, giving off a mixture of faint yellow and light pink light. The lamps placed on either corner of the steps shone with warm yellow light, giving a warm ambiguous feeling. Just as all the people looked up, the doors to the mansion were opened from inside, and like a fairy descending into heaven, a beautiful young woman appeared in front of the people.
the moment people saw the young women, they could take their eyes off her.
Dressed in a long royal blue gown with a cape, the young woman looked extremely beautiful and noble.
Lifting her dress lightly, the young woman raised her head and looked at the people with a faint smile on her face. The moment she saw her parents waiting for her at the end of the stairs, a bright smile that could cause a city’s downfall appeared on her face. Walking down the stairs at ease, the beautiful young women felt so unreal. For a moment people could not help but wonder whether she was a fairy or an angel.
The moment Sia reached the end of the stairs, Mr. Rao stepped forward and stretched his hand like a gentleman to help out his daughter.
With a gentle smile on her face, Sia placed her hands on her father’s outstretched arms and followed after him to the middle of the stage where Mrs. Rao was waiting with tears in her eyes.
The moment Sia arrived, Mrs. Rao could not hold it in as she stepped forward to hug her daughter tightly to express her raging emotion.
Looking at the two most important women of his life, Mr. Rao turned to the audience and introduced proudly “Ladies and gentleman, i introduce to you My daughter, the princess of the Rao mansion, Sia Rao!”
The moment Mr. Rao made an announcement, there was a series of gasp. But what caught their attention was the sound of a glass breaking, which stood out from all the similar noise.
Raising her head, Sia looked ahead at Mu Jun, who had dropped his glass in shock and a mischievous smile appeared on her face. She could also see a similar kind of expression on all of her friends faces. They looked extremely shocked and dumbfounded, looking like they had just been struck by lightning. How she wished she could take a picture of their shocked face, especially Mu Jun’s.
As if her thoughts were read, John immediately picked his phone to click pictures of all the animals who looked extremely shocked, except for Shen Yi.
Clicking his picture, John raised his eyebrows and asked “You don’t look that surprised. When did you know it was her?”
“Right when I entered the mansion. The preferential treatment we received was the last piece that helped me complete the puzzle” Shen Yi answered honestly. Though he had already guessed, he was still surprised when faced with the truth.
Raising his eyebrows, John said “Good for you”
Putting his phone aside, John clapped to wake up the few animals who were dumbstruck and said proudly “There you go, that’s my baby sister. Isn’t she pretty?”
The moment John said the last words, the few males animals finally reacted.
Turning to their head, Lu Jin, Si Ming and Yang Jie suddenly jumped on John and started to hit him while cursing “You damn bastard, how long have you planned to hide it?”
“Do you think this is fun? Do you know how shocked I was when I saw Sia suddenly appear as Ms. Rao?”
“My heart almost stopped beating. Do you know how troubled I was all these days?”
“Damn you fucking bastard...”
“Ah-Ah-Ah, hey hold on, at least let me explain. Fuck, you are ruining my hair style” John cried while trying his best to protect his face and hairstyle.
Finally it was Shen Yi who helped John out of this situation. Heaving a sigh of relief, John thanked Shen Yi. Looking at all the people staring at him in anger, John sighed and explained, specifically while looking at Mu Jun “It’s not that Sia did not want to tell you all about her identity but she had her reasons to do so”
“Huh, reason? What could possibly be the reason? how long have we been together, yet she couldn’t tell us?” Yang Jie scoffed
“John, be frank does sister Sia even consider us as her friends? Doesn’t she trust us even a bit?” Lu Jin asked
“Forget about us. How about a third brother? How much he loves her and what and all he has done for her. Couldn’t she at least reveal it to third brother? Do you know how troubled he was when he learned that he was already engaged? Did you know how guilty he felt whenever he thought of sister Sia? do you know how many sleepless nights he had because of her?” Si Ming asked in anger
At the side, though Shen Yi and the rest did not speak, he could see anger and sadness in their eyes which was within his expectations. Mu Jun on the other hand simply looked at John with his cold eyes, waiting for him to explain.
Met with all the animals outraged eyes, John sighed. “Can you all calm down first and listen to me?” Turning to Mu Jun, John looked into his eyes seriously and said “Things are very complicated so I can’t reveal much to you guys. But I can only tell you that Sia had her reasons”
