Chapter 594: Zhong Yi Engagement Banquet
Zhao Chang smiled and said, "Originally, I wanted you to marry me, but since you don't want to, then you can just be my lover without any official title, and be there whenever I need you. Remember, my name is not Fatty, but Zhao Chang."
He placed an access card on Xiang Mingzhu and said, "This is the access card to my villa in the imperial capital. If I want to see you, you have to provide door-to-door service for me."
He wanted to dampen Mingzhu's arrogance first.
"you……"
Xiang Mingzhu looked at him in disbelief, "My uncle won't let you go!"
"Your uncle?"
Zhao Chang sneered, "Do you think he doesn't know that I'm taking you back to the Qiushui Villa area in the middle of the mountain? He tacitly agreed to give you to me in exchange for the Lu family's priority supply of Chinese medicinal herbs for ten years."
"Impossible, he's my uncle. Even if our two families..."
Xiang Mingzhu paused as she recalled how the Lu family had shunned her when the Xiang family went bankrupt. Both Lu Bannong and Lu Yingxue were cold-blooded and heartless.
Her biological mother lived abroad all year round and did not return home even when the Xiang family went bankrupt.
Her eyes dimmed instantly.
His face looked pale.
Zhao Chang laughed sarcastically, "I'm leaving now. Don't pretend you didn't hear me calling you. You can be my female companion at the engagement party between the Lu and Zhong families on the 8th. It's also a good opportunity for you to meet your Mr. Zhong."
"No!"
Xiang Mingzhu was emotional, "I don't want to go see him with you."
"Oh, that's not up to you. If you don't show up, I'll send these videos to Master Zhong. Then he'll see an even more unbearable side of you."
Zhao Chang bent down and patted her cheek, "You'd better dress up as a beautiful vase and don't embarrass me."
After saying that, he strode away from the Xiang family.
He looks very proud from behind.
The landline at the Xiang family villa suddenly rang. Xiang Mingzhu sat stiffly for a while before mechanically picking up the receiver.
"Mingzhu, it's me."
Lu Yingxue's cold voice came from the other end of the line, "I heard that you and a man moved into Qiushui Villa halfway up the mountain. Congratulations. Is it Li Songwen, the one you have a lingering relationship with? Oh, I almost forgot, he's in jail."
Xiang Mingzhu almost bit her tongue: "Lu Yingxue, you are still pretending! You hypocritical father and daughter, use me to exchange for the priority supply of traditional Chinese medicine that the Lu family has been using for the past ten years."
Lu Yingxue on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment before she said with relief, "So you know. It seems Zhao Chang has succeeded. The Xiang family has fallen into this state. It wouldn't be bad for you to marry Zhao Chang."
"If it's good, why don't you marry me?"
"Me?" Lu Yingxue sounded as if she had just heard something ridiculous. "I'm going to marry Zhong Yi. I just tried on engagement dresses with him today. He looks good in anything."
Xiang Mingzhu said hysterically: "It's not you that he loves! He clearly said so many sweet words to me!"
"Really? But we'll be engaged and have kids soon. No matter how much you dream, Zhongyi won't even look at you. What can you be proud of now?"
Lu Yingxue sneered, "Don't expect Zhong Yi anymore, otherwise I will teach you a bigger lesson!"
She said that and hung up the phone.
This phone call seemed to be a unilateral victory for Lu Yingxue, and she took revenge on all of Xiang Mingzhu's stupidity.
Xiang Mingzhu's fingers tightly gripped the receiver, her eyes were bloodshot, and she was filled with endless hatred.
"ah!"
She roared hoarsely!
Everyone is plotting against her and wants to push her into hell!
Zhao Chang!
Lu Yingxue!
Since they want to force her, she will make them regret it!
Xiang Mingzhu dragged her tired limbs, slowly picked up the dirty clothes on the ground, and put them on one by one.
Engagement party!
As long as Lu Yingxue dared to invite her, she would ruin the engagement party without regard for the consequences!
…
A week later.
The engagement banquet of the Zhong and Lu families in the imperial capital was unprecedentedly grand.
The engagement banquet was directly booked at a famous castle hotel in the western suburbs of the imperial capital.
The castle is a European Renaissance building with a vast garden and flower corridors outside, and is intricately decorated all around.
Porch, flower wall.
Interesting twists and turns.
The parking lot was filled with luxury cars. Walking through the corridor, the flower corridor and the garden, you would arrive at the main entrance of the banquet hall. Along the way, neatly dressed waiters would guide the guests into the banquet hall.
The banquet hall has a very high dome.
The surroundings were decorated with air-flown flowers, some of which were covered in glistening water droplets and had a faint fragrance.
In the middle was a long red carpet leading to the emcee platform. The sides of the emcee platform were decorated with blue roses and white roses, looking clean and dreamy.
There were long tables placed around the table, which were specially decorated with candlesticks, flowers, pastries, as well as some fine wine and juice.
There are also two tall champagne towers in the venue, and champagne flows down from the top and falls into a flowing vessel that looks like a small fish pond.
Under the bright lights, the scenery is dazzling.
Extremely extravagant.
There are some leather sofas in the corner for guests to communicate and use.
Looking up at the banquet hall, you can see the dome at the top.
From the second floor onwards, there were circular rooms all around, totaling six floors. These rooms were all hung with nameplates of the guests, serving as their temporary lounges.
If there are distinguished guests coming from afar, or drunk guests, they can stay overnight.
The western suburbs are still a bit far from the city center, and the Zhong family was very thoughtful.
The engagement party is at 7pm.
The largest presidential suite on the top floor serves as Lu Yingxue's dressing room and lounge. At this moment, makeup artists and hairstylists are walking back and forth, dressing up Lu Yingxue.
"Miss Lu, I've brought you this set of diamond jewelry. It's a perfect match for your white mermaid skirt. This white mermaid skirt, embellished with sheer white gauze and diamonds to resemble shimmering fish scales, is absolutely stunning! It's truly a classic design by Master Yilin."
Lu Yingxue sat in front of a large dressing mirror. She gently took out a pair of diamond earrings and put them on, then looked at herself in the mirror.
Her red lips parted as she spoke, "Master Yilin's classic designs are naturally good."
Although she asked Qiao Xi to help her choose a dress, she still didn't wear the goose yellow dress.
Instead, she insisted on the classic white fishtail skirt that she had chosen at the beginning. Wearing this design that resembled a small wedding dress, everyone knew that she was the protagonist of the night!
I wonder what Qiao Xi’s intention was in choosing the light yellow color!
"Miss Lu, let me put this necklace on you. This set of diamond jewelry was sent by Master Zhong himself. You are so lucky!"
Facing the makeup artist's compliments, Lu Yingxue smiled perfunctorily.
Zhong Yi knows best who she cares about the most.
But so what!
tonight.
She specifically chose a castle hotel in the suburbs because it was far from the city center and many guests would choose to stay overnight.
She couldn't let Zhong Yi leave no matter what.
"What do you like?" Lu Yingxue asked softly.
The attendant in the room said, "It seems that Master Zhong has gone downstairs to attend a social event."
Lu Yingxue smiled and said, "I'm afraid he'll drink a lot of wine. Please prepare a pot of hangover soup for me in the room. I'll ask him to come and drink it when the time comes."
"Miss Lu, you are so thoughtful."
intimate?
That's not necessarily true.
Lu Yingxue looked at herself in the mirror and smiled slowly.
It's almost seven o'clock.
Guests came in one after another, and the banquet hall was bustling with activity.
