Chapter 1562 - 354, Acting (first update)
On the spectator area opposite several people, Lin Yuan and her companions saw Zhao Hongsheng. Not only him, but he was also followed by Tang Ruyan and Wu Family’s two brothers.
What surprised Lin Yuan the most, however, was the appearance of Yao Hanai, who had not shown herself recently.
Ever since the incident at Yue Lai Tavern involving Yao Hanai, she went from being Capital city’s most praised talented woman to a harlot despised by everyone overnight.
Even though two of Yao Mansion’s Little Concubines stepped forward that day, the young ladies from noble families who witnessed Yao Hanai’s disgrace were not vegetarians, especially with Cheng Yuexiu making matters worse.
Lin Yuan thought Yao Hanai would fade into oblivion from then on, yet unexpectedly, today she appeared alongside Zhao Hongsheng.
Others might not know the relationship between Zhao Hongsheng and Yao Hanai, but Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng were well aware. Seeing them appear together in the spectator area today seemed to signal a desire to make their relationship public.
As Lin Yuan predicted, Yao Hanai’s appearance immediately drew side glances from many.
The spectator area was already quite filled with people, including ordinary citizens and some who had bought viewing vouchers from others. Therefore, these people recognized both Yao Hanai and Zhao Hongsheng.
Out of respect for Zhao Hongsheng’s presence, although many wanted to gossip about Yao Hanai, they dared not speak out loud.
Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng coldly watched their group take their seats in the front row of the right spectator area, with Zhao Hongsheng seated in the center, Yao Hanai and Tang Ruyan to his left, and the Wu Family’s two brothers to his right.
