The old lady of the Fu family held the hand of one of her great-grandchildren in each hand and introduced them to everyone she met.
Fu Yunlei greeted everyone warmly, earning praise from all who saw him.
When Grandma Zhou Meiling saw her two darlings arrive, her eyes widened. She tugged at her grandson and said, "You little rascal, when will your grandma get to enjoy the pleasures of family life?"
Ye Jianming rubbed his ears: "Grandma, it'll be quick, two is nothing, I'll give you ten or eight more grandsons in the future."
"I've already been overwhelmed by all the empty promises you've made." Zhou Meiling glared at her grandson. "I'll give you two more months. If you still haven't brought a girl home, I'll take it upon myself to help you get one."
"Alright, alright, Grandma, Songshan has arrived. I'll go pick her up." Ye Jianming made an excuse to leave.
He had a white moonlight in his heart, and if he couldn't marry her, Ye Jianming wouldn't want anyone else.
Zhou Meiling let go of her grandson's hand and walked towards Fu Yunlei and his brother.
The two children immediately snuggled into the old woman's arms, calling her "Great-Grandma" repeatedly. Then, she took out the cards she had made herself, making Zhou Meiling wish she could steal the two children home.
Fu Jingsheng and Rong Bing greeted the old lady of the Ye family first, and then were called over by the other guests.
[President Fu, I heard that you took your child to see a doctor yesterday but were refused, yet the Ye family actually managed to invite Songshan today.]
The Fu family is the head of the four major families, yet Song Shan shows no respect for them and instead associates with the Ye family, which ranks second. How could Ye Jianming possibly know Song Shan?
[He's just a psychologist; his private clinic is all about making money, he'll be close to whoever pays him the most.]
That makes sense.
[Just kidding, Song Shan isn't your average psychologist. Her clinic is already listed on the stock exchange, and its market value might not be less than the Fu family's. It's just that her main business isn't in Tiancheng.]
It's truly amazing that a woman can achieve this.
Fu Jingsheng's deep eyes darkened slightly, and he remained silent.
"Wouldn't it be a huge embarrassment for Song Shan to not be able to see the young master of the Fu family? How could she dare to see him herself? But attending the banquet today is different. There's no need to test her skills. She'll just be close to whoever pays the most. Otherwise, how could she be so rich?" Rong Bing retorted. He hated these people who were laughing at him.
Mrs. Fu is right.
"I'm not Mrs. Fu. Jing Sheng and I aren't married yet." Rong Bing glanced at the man beside her as she denied it. She hoped that the words "Mrs. Fu" would come out of Fu Jing Sheng's mouth.
Fu Jingsheng found the words "Mrs. Fu" somewhat jarring, and he slightly raised his eyelids: "Indeed not, don't ruin Miss Rong's reputation."
Several people fell silent, and it took a while before someone changed the subject.
Rong Bing's face turned pale and then flushed.
[By the way, why hasn't Songshan arrived yet?]
This is her first public appearance in China. I wonder what she looks like? Is she ugly, which is why she never posts photos of herself?
It's possible.
The topic quickly returned to Song-sun.
Songshan received even more attention than the old lady of the Ye family's birthday banquet.
Although Fu Jingsheng didn't say anything more, he had many thoughts in his mind.
This Dr. Song was clearly doing it on purpose, deliberately rejecting the Fu family while deliberately getting close to the Ye family. He didn't believe the Ye family would spend money to invite Song Shan over.
Who has such a deep grudge against the Fu family? They've even abandoned the professional ethics of doctors who are dedicated to saving lives.
"Sheng, let's go for a walk in the garden. It's still early for dinner, and it'll be quiet with fewer people around." Rong Bing sent Fu Jingsheng away, afraid that the sarcastic remarks from those people would annoy him.
Fu Jingsheng didn't want to stay any longer, so he went to the garden with Rong Bing.
Hotel parking lot.
After touching up her makeup, Rong Yan asked Shen Xingzhi, "How is it?"
Shen Xingzhi clicked her tongue and said, "Truly exquisite."
Today, Rong Yan wore a white strapless dress with the hem only reaching her knees, exposing her slender calves. She wore a black suit jacket over it, the thick fabric unable to contain her ample bosom.
Her figure remained unchanged, with long legs and a curvaceous figure.
Rong Yan has very fair skin, porcelain white, with thin collarbones supporting her smooth skin, and a red gemstone necklace around her neck is particularly eye-catching.
Her chestnut-brown curly hair was casually draped over her shoulders.
She has shed the naivety of seven years ago. She exudes the charm of a mature woman.
“I think even if you stood in front of Fu Jingsheng, he might not recognize you.” Over the past seven years, Shen Xingzhi has witnessed Rong Yan’s transformation. Her clothing style, hairstyle, and temperament are all different from before; she looks like she’s had plastic surgery.
"It's even better if you can't recognize me." Rong Yan was all talk and no action.
"Sister." Ye Jianming knocked on Rong Yan's car window.
When the car window rolled down, the man's heart pounded as he looked at her exquisite face.
His gaze remained fixed on Rong Yan.
"Ye Jianming, open the car door, what are you standing there for?" Rong Yan always spoke to Ye Jianming in a bossy tone.
"Oh," the man said, realizing what was happening.
"Sis, are you here for a beauty pageant?" Ye Jianming joked.
"Sister Xingzhi, why didn't you stop her? My sister is so beautiful, and now those young masters in Tiancheng are eyeing her. I don't know how many more people will fall for her. Sigh, there are so many more rivals for love now."
Shen Xingzhi rolled her eyes: "You're such a flatterer."
Like Rong Yan, Shen Xingzhi treated Ye Jianming like a younger brother, so no matter what kind of joke he made, neither of them took it seriously.
"It's settled then. There will be a dance after dinner, and you'll dance with me for the first dance today," Ye Jianming said.
"You shouldn't exercise after meals; it's bad for your health."
"You're a doctor, so you're particular. Well then, how about you take a walk with me after dinner?"
“Okay,” Rong Yan agreed.
When Rong Yan followed Ye Jianming into the hotel, they passed by a path next to the garden.
She caught a glimpse of two people with their backs to her in the distance; she would recognize them even if their backs turned to ashes.
The woman paused, a chill running through her eyes.
"Yan, don't look, you'll get a sty." Shen Xingzhi tugged at Rong Yan.
The woman took a deep breath, turned her head away, and continued walking forward, but her heart was in turmoil.
Standing next to Fu Jingsheng was Rong Bing. Even though they hadn't held a wedding yet, he had already taken Rong Bing to various banquets.
But when she married Fu Jingsheng, he never took her to banquets, and he would never even introduce her to outsiders.
Rong Yan felt a pang of sadness.
"What a scumbag," Shen Xingzhi couldn't help but say. "You were already married back then, and I never saw him take you to these kinds of events."
"Over the years, people in Tiancheng have been saying that he's impotent and always goes to the urologist. He deserves it; he should be childless."
Rong Yan glanced at her best friend.
"Pah, I misspoke. I can't have any more children besides these few. I curse Rong Bing to be a stepmother forever," Shen Xingzhi corrected.
Why has Fu Jingsheng been seeing a urologist?
I was tormented all night back then, and when I left the next day, my legs were so weak I could barely stand. What's wrong with him?
Before she could think further, Rong Yan had already been led into the hall.
Everyone had been waiting for Song Shan, and when the door opened, all eyes turned to her, only to find Rong Yan standing there.
Isn't that Fu Jingsheng's ex-wife? Someone recognized Rong Yan.
