the next day.

Chen Yun drove his Bentley Continental to accompany Shu Tangyin to her cousin's engagement party.

When the Bentley stopped in front of the hotel, it attracted the attention of passersby.

When Chen Yun and Shu Tangyin got out of the car.

It even caught the attention of passersby, who all showed expressions of amazement!

Chen Yun was tall and straight, with eyes like stars.

Shu Tangyin has a stunningly beautiful face and a slender figure. Especially today, as she attends her cousin's engagement party, she is wearing a long evening gown and the Starry Eyes necklace given to her by Chen Yun, which gives her an air of nobility and elegance that is more pronounced than usual.

Anyone who didn't know her would think she was the daughter of some wealthy tycoon.

The two entered the hotel, took the elevator to the second floor, found the Peony Hall where Shu Tangyin's cousin Xu Yingying had reserved for her engagement, and then pushed open the door to go inside.

The Peony Hall is spacious and can accommodate 10 tables of people at the same time.

There are already quite a few relatives and friends present.

However, they are mostly young people.

It turns out that Cousin Shu Tangyin's engagement banquet was mainly to invite some colleagues, young relatives and friends. Another purpose was to take this opportunity to select some handsome men and beautiful women to serve as best men and maids of honor at the official wedding!

"Cousin, you're here!"

Chen Yun and Shu Tangyin had just entered the Peony Hall.

A beautiful woman wearing a high-slit long dress and heavy makeup walked over.

This woman is Shu Tangyin's cousin, Xu Yingying.

Shu Tangyin quickly handed over a red envelope, smiling as she congratulated her, "Congratulations on your engagement, cousin! May you have a long and happy marriage."

Xu Yingying accepted the red envelope, but her gaze lingered on Chen Yun, asking, "And who is this?"

Shu Tangyin quickly introduced, "This is my boyfriend, Chen Yun!"

Xu Yingying extended her hand: "Hello, Mr. Chen!"

Chen Yun shook hands with Xu Yingying and said calmly, "Hello, Miss Xu."

Although Chen Yun's clothes had no brand labels, Xu Yingying could still vaguely sense that this handsome man in front of her seemed to have a unique temperament.

Could it be a young master from a wealthy family?

She asked tentatively, "I wonder what Mr. Chen's parents do?"

Chen Yun calmly replied, "I have no parents."

Xu Yingying frowned upon hearing this, thinking to herself: Is he an orphan?

She then asked, "Where does Mr. Chen work?"

Chen Yun casually replied, "I'll work as a security guard at the Shu Corporation!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yingying's face immediately showed a look of disdain. She thought Shu Tangyin had found a rich young man boyfriend somewhere.

I never expected him to be a security guard!

Chen Yun noticed the disdainful expression on Xu Yingying's face, but he didn't care. Instead, it was the diamond necklace Xu Yingying was wearing that caught his attention!

Because the diamond necklace Xu Yingying was wearing was exactly the same as the one he gave to Shu Tangyin.

But when he bought the Starry Eyes necklace, the shop assistant made it very clear that this necklace was made by a master craftsman and that there was only one in the world!

The necklace he gave to Shu Tangyin cost 9.99 million yuan, so it couldn't possibly be a fake.

There's only one explanation left: the necklace Xu Yingying is wearing is a fake!

Although he discovered that his cousin Shu Tangyin was wearing a counterfeit necklace, Chen Yun remained silent. He certainly wouldn't be so tasteless as to expose someone's shortcomings at their engagement party.

He even secretly planned that after Xu Yingying left, he would privately ask Shu Tangyin to put away the necklace she was wearing, so that if someone found out and investigated, it would embarrass Xu Yingying.

Just then, a slightly plump woman from among a group of relatives and friends walked over, pointed at the necklace around Shu Tangyin's neck, and exclaimed, "Xu Yingying, look! She's wearing a diamond necklace exactly like yours!"

These words drew sidelong glances from all the relatives and friends present.

Everyone was stunned when they saw that Shu Tangyin and Xu Yingying were wearing the exact same necklace.

Shu Tangyin and Xu Yingying were also stunned.

However, after Xu Yingying was stunned for a moment, her expression became unnatural.

The slightly plump woman exclaimed in surprise, "Xu Yingying, isn't this the Starry Eyes Diamond Necklace made by a master craftsman? It's worth millions, and there's only one in the whole world. How come there are two identical necklaces now?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yingying's eyes flashed with a hint of panic that was barely perceptible, but she pretended to be calm and said, "Then I don't know. My fiancé and I bought this necklace for 10 million yuan, so it can't be fake."

At this point, she asked Shu Tangyin somewhat guiltily, "Cousin, how much did you pay for this necklace?"

Shu Tangyin answered truthfully: "This necklace was a birthday gift from my boyfriend. He said it cost 9,990 yuan!"

Xu Yingying was taken aback for a moment, then sneered: "Heh, isn't it obvious? Your boyfriend bought you a fake, and the one you're wearing around your neck is counterfeit!"

The people around her believed it to be true, and some of them even looked at Shu Tangyin differently.

Wearing a necklace worth nine thousand yuan is not shameful, but wearing a fake one does seem a bit vain.

Shu Tangyin also thought her necklace was a fake, but she didn't look down on it or feel ashamed. She just smiled and said, "So what if it's a fake? I like anything Chen Yun gave me. Besides, not everyone can afford such an expensive necklace like you, cousin!"

Those around nodded in agreement, thinking that Shu Tangyin was a good girl and not the kind who was truly vain.

Seeing that Shu Tangyin readily admitted that she was wearing a counterfeit, Xu Yingying didn't let it go. Instead, a sense of superiority seemed to spring from somewhere. She covered her mouth and laughed, saying sarcastically, "Cousin, you're right. Your boyfriend, that lowly security guard, works hard every day to earn a pittance, barely enough for three meals a day. How could he afford such an expensive necklace? Oh, hehe—"

Chen Yun frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Shu Tangyin was not happy about it.

Your cousin can say whatever she wants about her, but she can't mock Chen Yun.

Shu Tangyin's pretty face darkened, and she said crisply, "Cousin, you're wrong. Being a security guard is a respectable job. You earn money with your own hands, and that shouldn't be a reason for being ridiculed."

At this point, she grasped Chen Yun's hand, raised her pretty face, and said, "Besides, the outcome is still uncertain, everyone could be a dark horse. Who dares to say that Chen Yun is destined not to succeed? I believe in my boyfriend, he will definitely achieve great things in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yun couldn't help but look at Shu Tangyin.

Shu Tangyin held her pretty face up high, her gaze firm, seemingly full of confidence in him.

He felt a warm glow in his heart, and an indescribable sense of emotion welled up within him. His gaze towards Shu Tangyin softened considerably.

I bet only Shu Tangyin in the whole world wouldn't look down on him.

He was homeless and nearly starved to death when he was saved by the kind-hearted Shu Tangyin.

Two years ago, he mistakenly took Zhao Qingyu as his savior and married her. After the marriage, when Zhao Qingyu achieved some success, she looked down on him as a good-for-nothing who was not good enough for her.

Now, although he is just a security guard in Shu Tangyin's eyes, Shu Tangyin believes that he will definitely achieve great things in the future!

At that moment, he finally understood what his mother had told him years ago: "Marrying a good woman can bring prosperity to a family for three generations!"
