Zhu Yichen then took the initiative to pick up his wine glass and handed it to Huo Beian, saying, "Young Master Lian, I have long heard of you. Meeting you today, I can see your exceptional conversation. I'd like to offer you a toast."
"You flatter me." Huo Bei'an absentmindedly picked up his wine glass, clinked it against his, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Although he wasn't very happy with him, he still had to show him the proper etiquette.
"But I heard that Young Master Lian and the Qiu family's daughter are engaged. So what's the deal with you and my god-sister?" Zhu Yichen asked.
Huo Beian thought to himself, "This guy really knows how to bring up the most sensitive topics."
"My engagement with her is off. Song Ning is my girlfriend now."
"Then I really admire you. After all, the Qiu family is wealthy and powerful. Even their young master could refuse a marriage alliance. It seems you truly love my god-sister."
Huo Beian glanced at him, feeling that the kid was doing it on purpose, and asked in return, "Then, Young Master Zhu, do you have a girlfriend?"
Zhu Yichen smiled and said, "Not yet. But I already have a girl I'm interested in."
After saying that, he gave Song Ning a meaningful look.
Song Ning quickly picked up her juice, took a sip, and avoided his gaze.
Huo Beian immediately became angry. "What do you mean by this, Young Master Zhu? Are you coveting my girlfriend?"
After saying that, he slammed the wine glass down on the table.
Zhu Yichen laughed, a loud laugh, "Look at you, I was just joking with you. Even Young Master Lian took it seriously."
"This joke isn't funny, don't make it again. Song Ning is my bottom line."
Huo Beian's tone was filled with anger.
"Alright, alright, if you don't want to open it, then don't. But to be honest, I'm really envious of you. After all, my god-sister is really well-endowed."
Zhu Yichen smiled, a sly glint in his narrow eyes.
"Brother, you'd better say less." Song Ning had been silent until now, watching the two of them go on and on, before she quickly tried to smooth things over.
Song Ning was speechless. Why did Zhu Yichen speak so carelessly?
It gives people the impression of being rather unserious.
"Alright, alright, since my god-sister has said so, I'll say no more."
Zhu Yichen smiled, picked up his wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
"My son is just a bit of a chatterbox, but he doesn't mean any harm, so please forgive him." Zhu Meifen quickly smoothed things over. "Song Ning, since you're my goddaughter, don't worry, my dowry won't be small when you get married."
It wasn't until Zhu Meifen spoke that she said, "Thank you, godmother. It's enough if you can come to my wedding. You don't need to bring a dowry."
"How can that be? I'm planning to hold a banquet in a few days. I'll introduce you to all the celebrities there as my goddaughter. Then they won't be able to bully you anymore."
"No need for all this trouble, godmother."
“No, my dear sister, you don’t understand. This is a common practice in high society. Whenever a new member is born, it’s always announced. It’s very necessary.” Zhu Yichen looked at her with amusement.
Song Ning could only sigh, "Alright then."
She thought to herself, what incredible luck I've had, it feels like a dream. The chairman of the Zhu Group wants to adopt her as his goddaughter, and the heir to the Lian Group is her husband.
This is even more satisfying than a female protagonist's wish-fulfillment novel, isn't it?
Song Ning felt very happy, picked up a glass of juice, and took a sip.
"By the way, goddaughter. You shouldn't do live streaming anymore. Being a celebrity is worse than being an internet celebrity. I'll invest in a movie later, and you can be the star."
Upon hearing this, Song Ning almost spat out the juice in her mouth.
What? Did she hear that right?
They actually want her to become a star?
"But godmother, I have never studied acting."
"It's okay, just find an acting teacher to teach you. You have the popularity and the looks. Being a celebrity suits you better, and celebrities are more valuable. Listen to your godmother, you won't regret it."
Huo Beian chimed in, "Yes, wife. I agree too. I'll even invest in your film."
I agree.
Hearing everyone chiming in like this, Song Ning had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
"Alright then. I'll give it a try."
...
After finishing their meal, Huo Beian left with Song Ning.
Huo Beian was driving, and Song Ning was sitting in the passenger seat.
Just then, my phone rang.
Song Ning opened WeChat and saw that it was a message from Zhu Yichen.
[Little sister, it's nice to meet you. Don't hesitate to ask me for help if you ever need anything. I'll protect you.]
Song Ning thought for a moment, then replied: 【Thank you, brother.】
Although Huo Beian was driving, he glanced at her phone screen out of the corner of his eye, somewhat displeased.
"Is it that Zhu Yichen? Does that kid have feelings for you?"
"You're overthinking it. He's just a foster brother. Besides, who can compare to you?"
Song Ning felt that Huo Beian was jealous all the time.
"That's true. But he's still my sworn brother, so it's possible he might have feelings for you."
"Don't worry, even if he has feelings for me, I only love you, my husband."
"That's more like it."
Huo Beian then stopped being jealous and drove Song Ning to the amusement park.
There was no one in the amusement park, which Song Ning found strange.
Why is there no one here?
"I've booked the entire venue."
Huo Beian took her hand. "Come on, wife, let's go play."
Below the Ferris wheel, the enormous wheel slowly turned.
Huo Beian gently took Song Ning's hand, and the two walked into the cockpit together.
As the cabin slowly ascended, the city scenery unfolded before our eyes.
Song Ning pointed excitedly out the window, her eyes sparkling, while Huo Beian looked at her tenderly, a doting smile playing on his lips. When the cabin reached its highest point, he suddenly leaned in and gently kissed her lips, saying, "I heard that if you kiss on a Ferris wheel, you'll be together forever."
Song Ning's face instantly turned red. "There's such a saying?"
"It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't."
Huo Beian pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately. This kiss high in the sky was full of romance and passion.
After getting off the Ferris wheel, they arrived at the roller coaster. Song Ning hesitated for a moment, but Huo Beian held her hand tightly and encouraged her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
As the roller coaster sped off, Song Ning covered her eyes and screamed in fright.
Huo Beian held her tightly, feeling her warmth and heartbeat. Even amidst the sharp turns and dives, their hearts remained intertwined.
Next, they went on the carousel, bumper cars, and other rides.
As night falls, the amusement park lights up with dazzling lights, transforming it into a fairytale world.
They arrived at the central fountain, which danced to the music, its colorful lights reflecting on her face, making her breathtakingly beautiful.
Huo Beian, without anyone noticing, pulled out a bouquet of flowers from behind his back, knelt on one knee, and said affectionately, "Wife, every moment with you is my most precious memory. Wife, I love you."
"Huo Bei'an..."
Song Ning was moved to tears and hugged him tightly. At that moment, time seemed to stand still, leaving only the air filled with love.
