<strong>Capítulo 957: Chapter 642: Deste Heart, Fleeting Words, Enduring Love (68)</strong>
The engagement venue for Chu Qing and Xie Jialun was a famous five-star hotel in H City.
By the time the two arrived, many guests were already present at the banquet, and plenty of reporters were gathered outside.
The Chu Family’spany mainly developed abroad, but as their ancestry was from H City, they still held some influence there.
As for the Xie Family, although not outstanding in H City’s business scene, they were a promising enterprise in recent years.
Now, with the two families joining in marriage, the topic was already interesting, especially since Chu Qing was divorced, and her ex-husband was the Vice President of the famous Chang Family Group’s jointpany in H City, Chang Linsheng.
As such, the topic became even more intriguing.
Yang Su held Chang Linsheng’s hand and said, “Will those reporters recognize you?”
Chang Linsheng thought for a moment and said, “They might.”
Yang Su frowned, truly not wanting Chang Linsheng to bebeled as “Chu Qing’s ex-husband,” or “former son-inw of the Chu Family,” and other such nicknames.
At this moment, he, Chang Linsheng, was her husband, her man.
“Let’s go! Don’t worry!” Chang Linsheng embraced Yang Su and walked inside. Yang Su remembered something and said, “Oh, Feifei is here too, she’s here to help protect you!”
Upon hearing this, Chang Linsheng smiled, did he need protection? This little girl was so adorably endearing!
Chang Linsheng said, “Rest assured, I’ll have Acheng go pick her up!”
Acheng is Chang Linsheng’s assistant.
Yang Su nodded, finally feeling at ease.
The banquet hall was luxurious and sumptuous, glittering with gold and decorated with flowers, and many people were present.
Yang Su didn’t know anyone, nor was she interested in meeting them.
Her purpose today was to remain by Chang Linsheng’s side and go nowhere else.
In fact, Chang Linsheng’s presence today was quite awkward, as many at the event knew he and Chu Qing were once married. However, at his side was a young, beautiful girl, arousing curiosity.
When someone asked, Chang Linsheng candidly replied, “This is my wife!”
Yang Su watched as those middle-aged men (they all looked older than her Mr. Chang ╭(╯^╰)╮) called her “Mrs. Chang,” with immense satisfaction blossoming in her heart.
Yang Su wouldn’t let Chang Linsheng drink, mainly because she feared someone might spike the drink. Chang Linsheng said, “Would they really drug every drink at the entire banquet?”
Yang Su thought about it, agreeing that seemed unlikely, but still warned, “Don’t drink too much!”
Besides drugging, there’s another tactic called getting drunk!
Chang Linsheng pinched the little woman’s cheeks, really finding her increasingly adorable!
After greeting everyone around, Yang Su finally saw a few acquaintances: one was Xie Xin, another was Xie Jiale (barely an acquaintance ╭(╯^╰)╮), and the other was Han Shaojing!
Han Shaojing looked at Yang Su and Chang Linsheng standing together, and though there was an age gap and Yang Su looked a bit youthful, she had to admit, they made a great pair!
Han Shaojing smiled, “Susu, you’re getting prettier and prettier! Indeed, a joyous event makes one shine with vigor!”
Yang Su: “…”
What joyous event did she have? How could this person speak so carelessly!
But she still appreciated thement on her growing beauty~o(≧v≦)o~~
Han Shaojing greeted Chang Linsheng and said, “Nanxi isn’t feeling well today, so Yinchu is at home with her and couldn’te. If you need any help, let me know!”
Chang Linsheng nodded.
Han Shaojing smiled, turned, and noticed a graceful woman approaching, her gaze flickered; he remembered her as Chang Linsheng’s divorcewyer, Xie Xin.
Han Shaojing said, “You two sit tight, I have a few familiar friends I need to greet!”
Han Shaojing took his leave, and as he passed by Xie Xin, they exchanged a nce, nodded to each other, but didn’t engage in much conversation.
Xie Xin soon approached Chang Linsheng and Yang Su to greet them and apologized.
Xie Xin, having spent years abroad, wasn’t very close to this elder brother, but he was her brother after all. She’d heard of the issues between Chang Linsheng and Chu Qing, even knowing a bit about them.
Back then, she was still young, in high school, but vaguely remembered her brother seemed to have ruined someone’s marriage.
Later, she went abroad for her studies, pursuedw for many years, and upon returning, worked as awyer and served as a consultant for the KING Group’s Legal Department.
Finding out about Chang Linsheng wanting a divorce happened by chance. Back then, Lu Yinchu intended to hire anotherwyer, a colleague of hers, but upon learning about it, she volunteered to represent Chang Linsheng in the case, hoping to make up for the mistake her brother allegedly made years ago.
When she met Chu Qing in the United States, Chu Qing recognized her.
During her rtionship with Xie Jialun, Chu Qing had met Xie Xin once.
Although many years had passed, and Xie Xin was no longer a little girl, her appearance and name made Chu Qing remember her.
At the time, Chu Qing said something to Xie Xin: “Does your brother know what you’re doing?”
Her brother naturally didn’t know, nor did he need to.
She was already twenty-seven years old, no longer a child, and many things she could decide on her own without needing anyone, not even her brother, to dictate.
What she didn’t anticipate was Chu Qing’s return to the country, or her brother getting involved with Chu Qing and Chang Linsheng’s rtionship again.
She had tried to advise against it, but it was of no use.
When her brother intended to get engaged to Chu Qing, she didn’t know why, but she felt uneasy, though she couldn’t articte why.
But regardless, she felt the need to apologize, on behalf of her brother.
Chang Linsheng understood Xie Xin’s intention. He smiled and said, “Lawyer Xie, you’ve already helped me a lot, you don’t owe me an apology. On the contrary, I should thank you!”
Xie Xin frowned, uncertain of what to say.
The engagement ceremony was about to begin, and Xie Xin needed to host other guests, so she couldn’t stay with them long, and left after a few words.
Watching Xie Xin’s back, Yang Su sighed, saying, “They really don’t seem like family!”
Yang Su also spotted Xie Jiale, and the two merely nodded at a distance without further greeting; Yang Su found this just fine, as they weren’t really acquainted anyway! ╮(╯_╰)╭
Liao Feifei still hadn’t arrived, and Yang Su wanted to call her. Chang Linsheng offered to apany her, but Yang Su refused: “I’m just making a call, you wait here for me. Remember, don’t go anywhere, just wait for me here!”
Mainly, she was worried about the safety if Chang Linsheng went with her to a quieter ce, with lots of people in the hall, even if Chu Qing wanted to kidnap someone, it wouldn’t be possible!
Chang Linsheng chuckled, “Do you think your husband is that weak? I’ve had some training too!”
Yang Su stuck out her tongue; whether he had or not, she didn’t know, but his stamina was undoubtedly excellent.
Every night he could exhaust her to no end, yet appear unaffected himself.<fn0121> Get full chapters from FindN0vel</fn0121>
Yang Su said, “I’m just going to the restroom and to call Feifei, you wait for me, I’ll be right back, don’t worry!”
Before Chang Linsheng could say anything, a familiar friend approached him for a drink, and Yang Su seized the chance to wink at him and run off.
Chang Linsheng sighed; he really didn’t know what to do with this little girl!
…
Yang Su turned and headed towards the restroom down the corridor.
In a quieter spot, she picked up her phone and called Liao Feifei.
The call was answered after two rings: “Hello, Feifei, why haven’t you arrived yet? I… mm…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she felt a hand suddenly grasp her from behind and cover her mouth, followed by an unpleasant smell invading her nostrils, and the phone in her hand was snatched and switched off by someone behind…
Her wide, dark eyes let a tear slip, and as her consciousness blurred, an incredibly handsome face shed in her mind…
She still remembered asking him to wait for her in the hall…
But now what, Chang Linsheng? I seem… unable to return…

Wishing everyone a happy Lantern Festival, happiness for the whole family!
