"The news says that Han Shilin has been recognized by the Norman family, and an inheritance ceremony will be held at the Norman Villa tomorrow night, and his engagement to the eldest daughter of the Welsh family, Cheryl, will be announced at the same time," Han Shikai said.
"So... Shilin deliberately appeared in the news with a high profile this time because he wanted us to know where he is now and where he will appear tomorrow night?" Li Muxin continued.
"Yes, so we must prepare and find a way to sneak into Norman Villa!"

The next day, evening.
Han Shikai helped Li Muxin sneak into Norman Villa through various connections.
Li Muxin wore a long, loose black coat to cover her nearly five-month-old belly. She also put on makeup carefully and wore her black curly hair down casually.
Han Shikai took the invitation card he bought at a high price, and the two pretended to be relatives of the old Norman lady, and walked into the castle gate elegantly, arm in arm.
The castle was very big, almost as big as a palace, just like the European medieval royal palaces in movies. Li Muxin, led by Han Shikai, walked around in the castle and almost got lost.
"Kai, this place is so big, where should we find Shilin?" Li Muxin asked.
"We don't need to take action yet, or—wait!" Han Shikai narrowed his dark eyes, with an evil smile on his lips.
Li Muxin turned around and glanced at Han Shikai, who was dressed in a gentleman's suit and neatly combed hair. There was a serious glint in his dark eyes, but there was a trademark smirk on his lips from time to time, and he casually put his hands in his trouser pockets.
Here, she is posing in a charming pose.
The combination of strange clothes, eyes, expressions and cool poses, this Han Shikai... is simply too... strange!
"Wait just wait, why are you acting so cool when you have nothing to do and acting so weirdly?" Li Muxin muttered and snickered.
"Strange?" Han Shikai's serious eyebrows relaxed, and he returned to his previous frivolous appearance. He looked left and right at the reflective marble wall, straightened his clothes and hair, "I think I'm quite handsome today.
!I’m afraid that if I’m too charming today, those French women will be in trouble if they don’t let me go.”
Li Muxin rolled his eyes.
Is this man ever serious? At this time, he still has time to care about whether he is handsome or not!!!
God, can he be trusted?

Finally, after six o'clock, Li Muxin and Han Shikai waited in the luxurious auditorium for the Norman family's inheritance ceremony to begin.
When Han Shilin appeared in front of her again, her heart palpitated deeply. Suddenly she felt...the baby in her belly was also moving, as if her emotions were fluctuating with her mother's.
Han Shilin looked in high spirits today, his noble face was high-spirited, and he looked like a king. Under the gaze of everyone, a gentle smile appeared on his thin lips, and he followed the old Mrs. Norman to the center of the auditorium with a smile to receive the sacred ceremony.
ceremony.
Old Mrs. Norman is a very elegant Chinese woman. She wears a dark purple dress and her charm is still there. Although she is over eighty years old, she is in excellent spirits, especially her sharp phoenix eyes.
.
She seemed to particularly like Han Shilin, and kept Han Shilin by her side all the way. After the Norman family and a few guests who had a close relationship with the Norman family were all present, the old Mrs. Norman sitting in the center signaled the ceremony to begin.
Li Muxin's eyes were locked on Han Shilin, but Han Shilin didn't seem to see her. Perhaps Han Shikai and she deliberately found the corner position to avoid alerting the enemy before the time came.
The ceremony was very long…
It was so long that Han Shikai felt a little sleepy while listening. The long list of vows read out in French took nearly an hour, and there were still many ceremonies to be carried out.
Li Muxin glanced at the people lined up on the seats. On the right of the old lady Norman were the Duke of Normandy and his wife in a wheelchair, as well as Han Shilin and Catherine whom he had met before. On the left was the person from the second room, Li Muxin.
I couldn't tell who was who, but I could see that there were more people in the second room.
A long time passed, and the ceremony was almost at its end. Mrs. Norman finally got down from the middle seat again and walked towards Han Shilin...
At this time, someone suddenly spoke from the second room, and Li Muxin felt nervous. She couldn't understand what they were saying, but she could tell that their tone and attitude were not very kind.
Before long, the quarrels became louder and louder, and many guests attending the ceremony gradually divided into two groups. One group supported the Duke of Normandy, that is, Han Shilin, and the other group supported the second room.
"Kai, what on earth are they arguing about! Stop dozing off and wake up!" Li Muxin was furious. The man next to him actually held his hands and almost fell asleep because of the boring ceremony just now.
Han Shikai opened his eyes lazily, and his dark eyes suddenly became sharp. He stood up slowly and listened attentively for a while.
"There was a quarrel. The second roommate believed that Han Shilin had not made any contribution to the family in the past thirty years and was not qualified to be the heir. However, Mrs. Norman seemed to particularly admire Han Shilin and insisted on making Han Shilin the heir."
"What should we do?" Li Muxin was extremely anxious.
"What else can we do? It's time to show up." Han Shikai raised his eyebrows and looked towards Han Shilin, because Han Shilin seemed to have discovered the two of them and winked at Han Shikai.
Li Muxin looked at the calmness and confidence on Han Shikai's face and wondered why the man who had been dozing just now was so confident!?
Just as Li Muxin was about to stand up, the auditorium suddenly became quiet!
All the people who were gathered in the center of the auditorium just now dispersed and all looked at Li Muxin.
Li Muxin was startled.
Then his gaze... met Han Shilin's deep brown eyes...!
Li Muxin placed one hand gently on his abdomen, and with the other hand, he gently took out two things from his coat pocket.
Then, stand up and throw away the black coat!
Wearing a bright red deep-V evening dress, a coquettish flower bloomed from the low-key black. The fiery red color shocked people's sight. With her plump figure, the bright red evening dress made her skin look better than snow.
Europeans have white and rough skin, but her skin is as smooth as gel, with a moist pink color, exuding a dazzling light under the bright lights.
Everyone marveled at her beauty, because no oriental woman, even a woman who had been pregnant for several months, could be so breathtakingly beautiful!
