Su Jin raised an eyebrow at Song Leilei, "Good luck."

Song Leilei's eyes were as cute as a doe's, and she smiled, "Yes, you should also keep up the good work."

Gao Wei was unhappy; the two were being too friendly. She tugged at Lei Lei and said, "Let's go, let's go."

After walking a short distance away, she immediately started yelling at Leilei: "Didn't you realize she was being sarcastic? Someone as clumsy as you, how could you survive in this industry without me? You dim-witted, stupid child!"

Song Leilei shrank back as she was scolded, thinking to herself: If I hadn't signed with you, I would be cursing you right now, you old hag. Do you think you can sow discord between my sisters? Xiao Jin and I have been best friends for so many years.

The voice was so loud that Su Jin heard it clearly, and she felt a little sorry for Song Leilei. She muttered, "She's probably been fooled and doesn't even dare to tell me."

"Su Ling," Director Li called out to Su Jin, "remember to tell your cousin about the investment agreement."

Su Jin: "Okay, I'll remind her when she gets back from her vacation."

Director Li then noticed that the man beside her was Young Master Zheng.

It's true that Su Dong's cousin is surrounded by hidden talents; we can't afford to offend her.

"Young Master Zheng, see you again sometime." Director Li waved to Zheng Lin, then left with the producer.

The next three-way competition for the female lead will have to wait until two weeks later.

Su Jin enrolled in an acting class and attended every day.

It wasn't until the sixth day that they remembered the engagement banquet.

She was dressed in ancient costume and hurried into the magnificent banquet hall.

Those who came were mostly relatives and friends from both sides; there weren't many people.

The event was prepared with three letters and six gifts. After a simple exchange of engagement rings as tokens of their commitment, the couple received blessings from relatives and friends.

Of course, there are still dissenting voices.

He Rong said angrily, "They don't respect me as their mother at all! They just throw out the engagement banquet whenever they want, do they even have a place in this family?!"

Zheng Youguo helped his wife to the side, trying to keep her away from the group of relatives and friends, and let her calm down on her own.

Zheng Youguo put his arm around He Rong's shoulder and said, "Alright, we're having a happy day, and you bring this up again."

During the banquet, Su Jin looked at the engagement ring on her hand and felt a little emotional. Who would have thought that after going through so many twists and turns, she would still marry Zheng Lin, the man she had liked so much when she was young.

But now things have changed, people have changed, and even feelings have changed.

This is no one's fault but her own choice and decision.

Zheng Lin also spread out the back of his hand and glanced at the ring that proved the two of them were engaged.

Grabbing a glass of champagne, Zheng Lin leaned against the railing and took a sip. A flood of memories overwhelmed him: Su Jin smiling and talking to him, Su Jin drunk and acting crazy, Su Jin who promised to protect him the first time she spoke to him...

Every scene depicted Su Jin.

But memories still whip him hard, and there's also Su Jin, who said goodbye with a ruthless and resolute heart.

Those past events, like ferocious beasts, were about to engulf Zheng Lin.

He forced down a mouthful of champagne, only to find it bitter on his taste buds.

Su Jin turned to look at him. "We're finally engaged. Can you save my Su Group first? I can't get any funds out of the Wudu Group. Besides, the funds that the chairman can control are all in your hands. Don't you think I'm like an emperor who's been stripped of his power?"

Zheng Lin gave her a deep look.

The evening breeze ruffled her long hair, and her wide sleeves fluttered in the wind.

This gust of wind also touched his heartstrings.

Zheng Lin leaned close to her ear and said, "After the wedding banquet and all the ceremonies are completed, I will save your family."

Su Jin chuckled twice at the night sky, "Then I won't marry you."

"It's up to you. If you don't care about your own reputation by not having a wedding, what about your parents' reputation? Can you bear to see them at their age being laughed at by relatives and friends for having a daughter get married without a proper wedding?"

Su Jin: "..." This person is becoming more and more shameless.

Assistant Gao discovered that the two main characters of today's engagement banquet were missing, and she dragged the waiter carrying the trays around looking for them.

After a bumpy journey, they finally found the two people standing on the balcony.

Assistant Gao took two glasses of wine from the tray and said with a grin, "Come on, let's toast my boss and his future wife."

Su Jin was about to take it when Zheng Lin stopped her, using his wrist to deflect the wine glass that was being pushed towards her.

"She was drunk last time, how drunk was she? You let her drink, trying to ruin my engagement party today?" Zheng Lin scrutinized Assistant Gao with an air of authority. "Is her salary enough this month? Should we deduct some more?"

Assistant Gao had just had a few drinks with the elders and, emboldened by the alcohol, yelled, "Deduct it! If you deduct my salary, I'll tell my boss!"

Zheng Lin was too lazy to deal with this drunkard; he'd have to repent by tomorrow morning.

Su Jin touched her nose awkwardly. Why did they have to bring up her being drunk?

Assistant Gao started rambling incoherently, "No, no, no. My boss has never been interested in women. I'm with him every day, and I've never seen his wife before, nor have we ever dated. How could we suddenly get a marriage certificate? Are you two really together or just pretending?"

"Take him away to rest," Zheng Lin said to the waiter beside him.

But Assistant Gao shook off the hand that was supporting him and turned to shout into the hall: "Ah—my boss is faking his marriage!"

In an instant, eyes turned from all directions, all focusing on the source of the shouts.

He Rong, in particular, was hoping that the matter would not go through so that she could quickly slip through the crowd.

He Rong: "Zheng Lin, is what he said true?"

Zheng Lin frowned slightly. "Of course it's fake, he's drunk."

He winked at the waiter, who snapped out of his daze and continued trying to lead Assistant Gao away from the scene.

After drinking too much, Assistant Gao became as stubborn as a bull. He slumped to the side, but as soon as his butt touched the seat, he fell off again.

"Boss, you hit me!" Assistant Gao was on the verge of tears, pointing a finger at the wronged man. "You've only known the boss's wife for a short time, and you suddenly got engaged and married to her? It's definitely fake!"

Su Jin: "..." Suddenly, she looked at Assistant Gao with new respect. He had the courage to fight against evil forces even when drunk.

While he was said to be drunk, there was a semblance of logic in his speech.

Zheng Lin gritted his teeth; his good upbringing and knowledge couldn't suppress his urge to kill someone.

Following up on Assistant Gao's words, He Rong said, "What Xiao Gao said is something I've also been wondering about. Now that we've brought this up, I hope you can give everyone a reasonable explanation."

"Mom, between Su Jin and me," Zheng Lin held Su Jin's hand, looked into her eyes, and said, "we met ten years ago. Xiao Jin was my ex-girlfriend. Back then, I was young and had some misunderstandings about her, so we broke up. When we met again, I knew at first sight that she was the woman I wanted for the rest of my life. Our relationship is not a spur-of-the-moment thing, but rather the result of ten years of time, which has made us understand what it means to cherish each other."
