    ?

    Annie moved the hand held by Zhang Hongmei, and whispered in Chinese, "Mom, you are sweating."

    Zhang Hongmei nodded, "Annie, mom is very nervous. Really."

    Carlos patted Zhang Hongmei holding his arm, "Don't be nervous, it's really fine."

    Zhang Hongmei didn't want to talk to him.  As soon as the three of them entered the door, they saw Beth and the others waiting.

    Zhang Hongmei let go of Carlos, and led Annie to Huang Meihua's side quickly.  "Mother-in-law, I'm really nervous."

    "Hehe, you'll get used to it after a while, let's go in, it's not good for you to leave Carlos like this."

    "Mother-in-law, no, I can't do it. Holding hands with him and letting others watch, I feel like my pores are standing up. I'd better hold your hand."

    "Hehe, you have to adapt to this occasion today. It's okay, he is your brother-in-law, isn't he? Come on, we still have a distance, and we're done."

    In the end, Zhang Hongmei still took Carlos' hand.  Annie looked at Zhang Hongmei amusedly, "Mom, you are too nervous, and your smile is too scary."

    Zhang Hongmei took a deep breath, thinking that she couldn't laugh, so it was more natural to keep a blank face.

    Carlos is so sour in his heart, is it uncomfortable being with himself?

    "Hongmei, we have to meet a lot of people in a while, so adjust yourself."

    "Okay, I see." Zhang Hongmei is much better now than before. Huang Meihua is right, Carlos is her adopted brother, so don't think too much about it.

    Zhang Hongmei knew that her conservatism was at work.  I'm really not used to being too close to men.  When they finally reached the hall, many people's eyes were on them.  Some people came to say hello. After all, the head of the first family in country m has arrived, and there are still many people who want to come and talk.

    Carlos let go of Zhang Hongmei's arm, stretched his hand into her back, and supported her waist. Everyone first said hello, and then the topic turned to Zhang Hongmei.

    "Mr. McCann, who is this beautiful lady?"

    "Hehe, this is the eldest lady of our McCann family, Zhang Hongmei McCann."

    Zhang Hongmei smiled slightly at the dozen or so people who surrounded her, "Hi everyone, it's a great honor to meet you here."

    Carlos introduced these people to Zhang Hongmei one by one, all of whom had business contacts.

    Zhang Hongmei shook hands with them one by one.  This group of people just left, and a group of people came over.

    Zhang Hongmei must try her best to remember them.  After all, it is still difficult, both are blond, but fortunately their memory is not bad.

    At this time someone came again, of course the people in the venue didn't know who it was, but there was a lot of commotion outside, Zhang Hongmei thought, this is another big shot.

    ? When someone came in, Zhang Hongmei was taken aback. This man was too handsome. He wasn't very handsome, nor was he particularly tall. It just gave him a different feeling.

    "Hongmei, this is His Royal Highness the prince you want to see. Do you want to go over and say hello?"

    Zhang Hongmei shook her head, "No, I want to meet, but I don't want to get to know each other. Let's forget it."

    "Hehe, what kind of thinking are you thinking?"

    "Hehe, just to see what His Royal Highness looks like?

    Carlos, Anne and I went to find our foster mother.  "

    "Okay, I'll take you there. Others come to this occasion wishing to get to know more people, but you are better off avoiding it."

    "Hehe, I don't want to hide, but I don't know how to communicate with them? Besides, I really don't like the hand kiss here."

    "Hehe, I finally know why you always reach out to shake hands first."

    "I'm afraid that I will avoid everyone's embarrassment, okay? We are here, go get busy! Don't come looking for me."

    "Haha, that's not okay, I have to dance later?"

    "I'm really sorry Carlos, I don't dance."

    "Does this matter?"

    Zhang Hongmei nodded, "I promise my husband that I won't dance with anyone." Let's use Zhang Shouyi as a shield.

    After listening to Zhang Hongmei's words, Carlos smiled unnaturally, turned and left.

    Beth was also chatting with others, only Zeng Zhongkang and Huang Meihua were sitting on the sofa.

    Zhang Hongmei took Annie and sat down, "Mother-in-law, I regret coming here, I am not used to this kind of life."

    "Hehe, I was like this at first too, I especially hated their hand kisses, ??There is a forehead kiss.  But then I got used to it, but I never accepted these two etiquettes from anyone other than Bass.  I just thought it was disrespectful to me.  "

    "Me too. I was the one who reached out to shake hands just now."

    "Hehe, the education we receive is different."

    "So I escaped back."

    "Hongmei, Annie, what do you two want to drink?"

    "Annie, shall we drink fruit juice?"

    "Okay, Mom!"

    Zeng Zhongkang got up to get a drink.  "Mother-in-law, I just rejected Carlos' invitation to dance. I promised Brother Zhang not to dance with anyone."

    Huang Meihua nodded knowingly.  "It's okay, if you don't dance, you don't dance."

    "Beth and I are not going to the dance floor either."

    "I'm sorry, stepmother."

    "Hehe, what's the matter?"

    "I have affected your mood."

    "Silly girl, what does this have to do with you? It's fine if you don't dance, but if someone comes to invite you to dance in a while, it's not good if you don't agree, there is an excuse for not dancing at all."

    Zhang Hongmei nodded.  I didn't think so far.  But definitely not dancing.

    Carlos cheered up and went around His Royal Highness.  They had met several times, but they were just nodding acquaintances, so they just exchanged some pleasantries and left.

    After listening to Zhang Hongmei's words, Carlos was hit.  Even at this important gathering, I can't lift my spirits.

    At this time, several noble ladies gathered around.  They all know each other and have a good relationship.  So Carlos got stuck with them.

    The host of this banquet, also a nobleman, stood in the middle and said, "Welcome everyone. We are all old friends and acquaintances. This gathering is for everyone to have a chance to meet. So I won't repeat myself, I wish you all a happy day!"  "

    Zhang Hongmei didn't want to know anyone, so she took Annie to lie on the sofa all the time. Of course, many ladies came to say hello to Huang Meihua.

    Zhang Hongmei laughed along with her.  The well-behaved one seems to be her other granddaughter.

    When the buffet started, Zeng Zhongkang became the waiter for the three ladies.  Responsible for getting food for the three of them.

    However, I ate some dinner at home, so it's a snack now.

    Zhang Hongmei only ate a few pieces of fruit symbolically, but drank a glass of juice.  I kept talking just now, but now I feel dry mouth.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
