Chapter 167 Engagement Show of Love
Fu Yanci and Lin Shuwan's engagement took place at a manor in the suburbs.
It is very large in scale and expensive to build, and preparations began many days in advance, as if they wanted to renovate the manor from the inside out, which shows how much importance they attach to it.
There were quite a few guests invited to attend, after all, this was a marriage between the Fu and Cheng families.
The two families had the same idea: the wedding would be decided by the two children, and they could hold it however they liked, but the engagement party had to be solemn and grand.
Because this is the business card handed out by the Fu and Cheng families, the people in Hai City and Yancheng must know that from now on, the Fu and Cheng families are a community of interests.
On the day of the engagement party, both parents dressed elegantly and welcomed the guests gracefully.
Lin Shuwan and Fu Yanci arrived early in the morning. Lin Shuwan wore a moon-white slim-fitting cheongsam that fitted her graceful figure perfectly, showing off her curves. She looked dignified, yet gentle and elegant.
Fu Yanci paired his outfit with a new Chinese-style suit in the same color scheme, with a golden dragon woven down from his shoulder, adding a touch of mystery to his cold and aloof temperament.
The dresses for both of them were made by well-known domestic designers at great expense and are priceless.
"Today's banquet may be a bit boring. If you are tired, you can go to the reception room next door to rest. Don't worry about other people's eyes." Fu Yanci comforted Lin Shuwan considerately.
Today's banquet is a place of fame and fortune, so naturally there are a lot of hypocrisy and flattery that need to be dealt with.
Lin Shuwan smiled and shook her head. She put her arm, as slender as a lotus root, around Fu Yanci's arm and said playfully, "It doesn't matter. Since we will be husband and wife in the future, of course we must advance and retreat together."
Fu Yanci raised his eyebrows slightly, a bright and strange color flashed in his eyes, and he was pleased by the word "husband and wife" in the other party's words.
Fu Yanci approached Lin Shuwan with a wicked smile on his face, and whispered in her ear, his voice full of magnetism, "Can you call me again tonight——"
Before he finished speaking, Lin Shuwan immediately knew what the two unspoken words were.
The tips of her ears turned red instantly, and her angry cat eyes stared at the man fiercely. The corners of her eyes seemed to have hooks, which made Fu Yanci feel itchy.
This man!
I tossed her around in bed for so long last night, isn't it enough for her to repeat it over and over again?!
He actually flirted with her in public today?! His shamelessness is truly shameless!
When others see their little actions, they can only envy the good relationship between Mr. Fu and Ms. Lin.
In their circle, it is not easy to get along harmoniously and respect each other, and it is even rarer to find a perfect couple who are deeply in love with each other.
Most of them are superficial couples who get together for the benefit of the family. After marriage, they sleep in the same bed but have different dreams, and each has his or her own canary outside.
Many people took the opportunity to come forward and offer their blessings and compliments. These words sounded particularly pleasant to Fu Yanci's ears, and everyone felt that Mr. Fu seemed to have become gentler tonight.
The Lin family also came.
Lin Mucheng sat at the pillar of the Lin family. As soon as he came in, he attracted gossipy looks from all sides, but he remained calm and kept looking gently in the direction of Lin Shuwan, but did not go forward to disturb her.
Qiu Jing came with him. She was still dissatisfied with Lin Shuwan's choice of the Cheng family as her in-laws, but she didn't want to be left behind, so she came along.
Lin Yuyao also followed shamelessly.
She saw Qiu Jing's unwillingness, her eyes rolled, and she had a bad idea. She pulled Qiu Jing forward and deliberately questioned her loudly.
"Lin Shuwan, since you are a member of the Lin family, why do you choose the Cheng family as your mother's family?"
She spoke so loudly that everyone heard it, and for a moment the hall became quiet and the atmosphere was awkward.
Lin Yuyao is so brave to pour cold water on this situation. Is she trying to seek justice for the Lin family?
Everyone looked up to Lin Yuyao in their hearts, and this question was exactly what they were curious about.
Having attracted other people's attention, Lin Yuyao had a proud look on her face.
Yes, it is this kind of attention that everyone is paying attention to.
She should enjoy this kind of attention, and Lin Shuwan should feel ashamed of herself in the face of this kind of gaze!
Lin Mucheng frowned, looking impatient. Didn't Lin Yuyao promise him that she wouldn't cause trouble, so he agreed to bring her here? Why?!
Just as he was about to step forward to stop him, Fu Yanci's ruthless voice came out first.
"What's the security guard for? Why did they let you in? Someone, take her away!"
Fu Yanci didn't even look at Lin Yuyao, his voice was cold and he gave orders seriously.
Lin Yuyao couldn't stand this kind of disregard and rejection. She didn't expect Fu Yanci to be so disrespectful. She had already turned her love for Fu Yanci into hatred. She wished that he and Lin Shuwan would die together!
Lin Yuyao was hysterical, directing her fire at Lin Shuwan. "Lin Shuwan, I've long seen that you're a sycophant! You just saw that the Lin family was in decline, so you're kneeling down to the Cheng family to support you! You're so shameless!"
With a "slap", Lin Yuyao's face was slapped crookedly.
The slap was given by Mrs. Cheng.
At this moment, her brows were furrowed, her eyes were slightly angry, and her innate aura oppressed Lin Yuyao so much that she dared not resist.
Mrs. Cheng is not the type of person who would tolerate being wronged, and she would never let her daughter be wronged. She would avenge any grudge on the spot.
"I've raised Wanwan for twenty years, and this time I'm giving her a dowry of twenty properties, fifteen luxury cars, eight plots of land, and several times that amount of antique gold. I'd like to ask what the Lin family, who abandoned Wanwan, has prepared? What qualifications do they have to compete with me for this family?"
Mrs. Cheng had an arrogant look in her eyes and spoke with great force. Cheng's father had lived an upright life, and Mrs. Cheng's mother's family was a business family. This dowry was very important in the wealthy circle.
These words made Qiu Jing feel ashamed. She had nothing to show for it and was publicly warned that she was the one who abandoned Lin Shuwan.
Mrs. Fu was elegant. She walked over with a smile, climbed onto Mrs. Cheng's arm, and patted her hand to comfort her.
"Wanwan is well-educated and well-mannered. It is a blessing for our Fu family to marry her. My husband and I proposed to the Cheng family two years ago, and now we have finally got what we wanted."
Mrs. Fu seemed to be chatting casually, but she was actually telling everyone that the Fu family had set their sights on Lin Shuwan a long time ago, and it was not that Lin Shuwan was trying to climb above her status. Moreover, at that time, Lin Shuwan was in the Cheng family, so the Cheng family was naturally her mother's family!
Now everyone knew what was going on, and no one dared to object.
Lin Shuwan stood at the back with a lazy expression, elegantly holding the wine glass and looking at the unconvinced Lin Yuyao, as if to say -
There is no need for me to do anything, as one person after another is standing in front of me to block all the hardships for me.
She is the real winner.
