After half a year of marriage, Rong Jing and Su Yinwan never lived together, always living separately.
In the eyes of the Rong family, Su Yinwan was gentle and graceful, a competent Mrs. Rong...
With a loud "bang," fireworks soared into the sky in the distance, each displaying its own unique beauty and charm. Their colors and shapes were all different, making them unforgettable and leaving a lasting impression.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Su Yinwan exclaimed in admiration as she stood at such a height for the first time to appreciate the beauty of the fireworks.
Rong Jing was drawn over by her voice. He stood beside her, looking into the woman's doe-like eyes. Her black hair was simply and casually tied into a bun with a hairband, making her skull look very beautiful.
Further down, her lips resembled half-ripe cherries, making one want to take a bite.
Rong Jing simply lowered his head, reached out and grabbed Su Yinwan's chin, quickly and ruthlessly covering that rosy blush with his hand.
Su Yinwan was taken aback by his sudden action, and then she unconsciously responded to him.
Sensing the woman's response, Rong Jing gradually became aggressive. He became somewhat frantic, tightly wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her close to him until they were pressed together.
Their lips met, their breaths became erratic, and the kiss deepened and lingered.
Su Yinwan wrapped her arms around Rong Jing's neck and finally collapsed into his arms.
After a long while, the two sat side by side. Su Yinwan rested her head on Rong Jing's shoulder, and Rong Jing put his arm around Su Yinwan's shoulder, gently stroking her smooth skin with his fingertips.
The two sat silently, enjoying the beautiful scenery outside, feeling quite content.
This night was a little crazy, yet also a little sweet.
——
Tonight, an industry networking gala is being held in the banquet hall of the Saint-Germain Hotel, and the guests present are all wealthy and influential.
At this moment, business people present were clinking glasses and exchanging pleasantries, discussing business matters.
"President Rong is here, look."
"Who is that woman next to him? She's so beautiful."
"Didn't President Rong always bring Assistant Xu with him before? Why is he with a different beauty tonight?"
"They are such a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman!"
The banquet hall erupted in an uproar, with everyone's eyes turning to Rong Jing and Su Yinwan beside him, and they were all whispering among themselves.
Tonight, Rong Jing was dressed in a black suit with a green brooch on his chest. His hands were in his suit trousers, his face was sharply defined, and his expressionless black eyes made him seem unfathomable. He exuded a cold and domineering aura.
Su Yinwan entered with him, and she slowly walked into the banquet hall arm in arm with Rong Jing.
Su Yinwan wore a black, shoulder-length, floor-length dress, her beautiful hair simply tied up with a jade hairpin, and her fair and rosy skin was only lightly made up. She looked cool and elegant, with a unique and stunning elegance.
The two were dressed like a couple today, complementing each other perfectly.
This was Su Yinwan's first time attending such a gala, and with everyone watching them, it would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous.
At first, Su Yinwan refused when Rong Jing asked her to attend the party with him. However, Rong Jing wanted to take this opportunity to let more people know that she was Mrs. Rong.
Of course, she could choose not to participate, since the Rong family held a prominent position in Rongcheng and did not need to flatter others.
After much hesitation, Su Yinwan finally agreed to accompany Rong Jing to the party.
The waiter brought the wine to them. Rong Jing picked up a glass of fruit wine and handed it to Su Yinwan, while he took a glass of champagne for himself.
"President Rong, it's been a long time. And who is this?"
A middle-aged man in his forties walked over with a wine glass and greeted them warmly.
"Mr. Su, it's been a long time. This is my wife, Su Yinwan."
Rong Jing introduced the situation while looking at Su Yinwan with gentle eyes.
"I see. Mr. Rong is so lucky to have married such a beautiful wife. Hello, Mrs. Rong."
After she finished speaking, the man opposite her picked up his wine glass and brought it towards her. Seeing this, Su Yinwan gracefully clinked her glass with his.
The two businessmen started chatting like this, and Su Yinwan couldn't get a word in edgewise, so she could only listen from the side.
She only vaguely knew that this Mr. Su was an important client of the Rong Group.
Perhaps because she hadn't worn high heels for a long time, Su Yinwan's heels were a little sore and she was starting to lose her balance, but she still endured it.
Nevertheless, Rong Jing still noticed her subtle movements.
He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Are you tired of standing? Go and rest over there for a bit. I'll come find you later, okay?"
Su Yinwan breathed a sigh of relief, nodded slightly to President Su, and then went to find a seat.
Su Yinwan shifted into a more comfortable position and was about to pick up her phone to check her messages when a familiar voice came from beside her.
"Xiao Wan, is that really you? I didn't expect you to be here tonight."
Su Yinwan looked up and saw Xiao Beichen's face in front of her.
"Brother Beichen, what are you doing here? When did you go back to Rongcheng? I've missed you so much."
Su Yinwan felt as if she had seen a family member. Suddenly seeing Xiao Beichen, who had always been very kind to her, she choked up a little.
Just a little bit more, just a little bit more...
Su Yinwan felt increasingly aching as she thought about it, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"Don't cry, Xiao Wan. You're all grown up now." Xiao Beichen smiled indulgently, remembering the crybaby from before. He hugged Su Yinwan and said, "I'm back now, and I'm still your strongest support."
"Brother Beichen... Waaah..."
Su Yinwan completely broke down, and she cried uncontrollably in Xiao Beichen's arms, simply because seeing the person in front of her reminded her of Su Yumo, her beloved older sister, someone who was no longer with her.
Since that incident, Su Yumo's name has never been mentioned again in the Su family, and for Su Yinwan, it is an insurmountable hurdle.
Xiao Beichen took out a tissue to wipe away Su Yinwan's tears and said gently, "Xiaowan, if Yu Mo were still here, she would definitely want you to be the happiest and freest girl again, instead of hiding everything from yourself. Yu Mo is gone, but you still have me."
There was a hint of sadness between Xiao Beichen's brows; even he himself couldn't let go.
"What are you doing? Let her go."
Seeing Su Yinwan embracing a man so intimately, Rong Jing felt a surge of anger, and flames instantly ignited in his eyes.
He roughly snatched Su Yinwan from the man's arms and shoved Xiao Beichen hard, causing Xiao Beichen to stumble back a few steps without warning.
"What's wrong with you? Brother Beichen is my friend. If you want to go crazy, go do it outside."
Su Yinwan tried to break free from Rong Jing's grasp, but he held her tightly.
"Don't forget, you're a married man. No matter who it is, you'd better watch your step from now on."
"You're being completely unreasonable. I don't want to talk to you right now."
Xiao Beichen wanted to step forward to help Su Yinwan, but Rong Jing glared at him and said, "Sir, please be mindful of your status. We are husband and wife, and you have no right to interfere."
Xiao Beichen ignored him and walked over anyway. Rong Jing released Su Yinwan and punched Xiao Beichen hard. Xiao Beichen was not to be outdone and raised his fist to punch back, but Rong Jing quickly dodged it.
