Time quickly moved to the next day.
That is, on the day of Shen Shi'en's banquet.
The entire mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, filled with a joyous atmosphere.
The banquet wasn't attended by many people, but the Shen family had been operating in Xidu for many years and their influence was complex and intertwined.
Besides trading partners, there were many collateral relatives and branches. In addition, Lord Shen was generous and did not limit the number of relatives that those invited could bring. So these people brought almost all their families. Roughly calculated, it was not a small number.
Before the banquet even started, guests had already begun to arrive one after another, and the gates of the Shen Mansion were bustling with people coming and going.
Lord Shen was recovering from a serious illness and it was not appropriate for him to greet guests at the door. So he sent his steward, Uncle Li, to greet the guests on his behalf.
At this moment, a wheelchair slowly rolled out, followed by a tall figure, who was naturally Shen Manshu and Fugui.
"Miss Shen!"
"Young Miss!"
Everyone greeted them.
Shen Manshu responded casually, her gaze constantly drifting towards the parking lot.
Finally, a green jeep slowly pulled up, and two tall figures stepped out of the vehicle; it was Lin Yu and Feng Jiu.
Lin Yu led Feng Jiu to the door. Upon seeing Shen Manshu, he was slightly taken aback, then smiled and greeted her, "Miss Shen!"
Shen Manshu was initially very excited, but her expression immediately turned cold, and she said in a feigned indifference, "Young Marshal, your presence is an honor! I am sorry for not welcoming you properly!"
Lin Yu smiled and said, "You came out to pick me up in person, how can you say I haven't been welcoming you properly!"
Shen Manshu's pretty face flushed red, and she quickly denied it, "I, I wasn't waiting for you. It was my dad who told me to wait for you here!"
Shen Manshu made up a lie, and anyone could see the guilty look on her face.
Lin Yu didn't argue with her, but shook his head helplessly, slowly walked over, squatted down, and stroked her knee.
"How is it? You should be recovering well after using my prescription, right?" Lin Yu asked with concern.
Feeling the warmth from Lin Yu's large hand and hearing his gentle words, Shen Manshu's heart pounded. At the same time, she felt inexplicably wronged and almost burst into tears.
At this moment, she realized that she couldn't hate Lin Yu at all. After not seeing him for the past few days, her thoughts had flooded back like a tidal wave.
"Young Marshal Lin, there are too many people outside. Let's go to the banquet hall instead?" Shen Manshu said quickly, turning her face away so that Lin Yu wouldn't see her outburst.
Lin Yu nodded, took the initiative to walk over and push her wheelchair, and together they headed towards the mansion.
The front courtyard of the Shen residence was the banquet venue. Dozens of large round tables had been set up on the lush green lawn, and some guests had already found their seats and were chatting and laughing.
Meanwhile, in a sunny room on the second floor of the Hou Mansion, one could see the entire meeting hall.
A handsome man was looking downstairs when he saw Shen Manshu and Lin Yu enter the venue, and he was slightly taken aback.
Although he had only stayed one night, he took the opportunity to learn a lot about the Shen family and about some of Shen Manshu's quirks.
According to the servants of the Shen family, Shen Manshu is usually very averse to strange men getting close to her, and even relatives and friends are not allowed to come within two meters of her, except for that big, dumb bodyguard and Lord Shen.
But at this moment, Shen Manshu is actually being pushed by another man?
Who the hell is this kid?
A surge of intense jealousy instantly welled up in Ye Feng's head.
He immediately ordered Uncle Bao to bring over a servant from the Shen family.
Ye Feng grabbed the servant by the collar and asked fiercely, "I'm asking you, who is that kid pushing the wheelchair? If you don't tell me, I'll cut off your balls!"
The servant, trembling with fear, glanced out the window and said, "He...he's Doctor Lin!"
"Dr. Lin? A doctor?" Ye Feng was stunned for a moment.
Given Shen Manshu's status, why would she allow a mere doctor to push her around?
"You dare to play me? Do you know what happens when you deceive me?" Ye Feng immediately grabbed the other man's crotch and squeezed it hard.
The servant cried out, "Young Master Ye, I...I really didn't lie! He really is a doctor. It's just that he successfully performed surgery on the Marquis and saved Uncle Li and Fugui, so the Marquis and Miss consider him a benefactor of the Shen family!"
Shen Shi'en and his daughter did not tell the servants of the Shen household Lin Yu's true identity, so they naturally did not know. They only knew that Lin Yu was a renowned expert at the First Affiliated Hospital.
"So that's how it is?"
Ye Feng immediately understood.
Since he is my savior, it's not a bad thing to be close to him.
He didn't see the other party as a threat. After all, Shen Manshu was the daughter of a marquis, so how could she possibly be interested in a mere doctor?
"Young Master, Xiao Zhankun has arrived!"
At this moment, Uncle Bao walked in with a young, handsome man.
Ye Feng's eyes lit up, and he beckoned, "Zhan Kun, come here!"
"Young Master Ye! What brings you here today?"
Xiao Zhankun trembled with excitement. Ever since he was blacklisted, he had been unwelcome everywhere he went. He never expected that one day he could sneak into the Marquis's mansion and attend the Marquis's banquet.
I'm afraid even He Wu isn't qualified!
After all, He Wu's background is not clean, and a hereditary family with status like the Marquis would never look at a gangster like He Wu.
Ye Feng sneered, "I called you here today to give you a chance to shine. When the banquet starts, I'll take the opportunity to propose to Miss Shen, and you'll sing a song for her on the spot, understand?"
Ye Feng spent the whole night thinking about it. His pharmaceutical distribution channels had been given away by a third of their value for no reason. He, Young Master Ye, was not going to suffer such a loss!
The only way to stop the losses is to get his hands on Shen Manshu. Once Shen Manshu becomes his wife, the channel will naturally return.
He knew that Shen Manshu wasn't interested in him, but that didn't stop him from proposing.
Once he proposes to her in public, it will be tantamount to making his stance clear. In the entire city of Xidu, who would dare to compete with him, a young master from a noble family, for a wife?
If Shen Manshu can't get married in the future, won't she end up in his hands anyway?
"Young Master Ye, you want to propose to Miss Shen?" Xiao Zhankun's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded in agreement. "Young Master, don't worry, I will definitely choose my best song so that you and Miss Shen can complete the proposal ceremony in a romantic atmosphere!"
Ye Feng nodded in satisfaction, "Alright, you can go and get ready now. Just don't let me down at the crucial moment!"
"Oh! Don't worry, I'll definitely prepare well!"
Xiao Zhankun nodded and was about to leave when he glanced out the window and saw Shen Manshu and Lin Yu together.
"Damn it, how did this dog basket get here??" Xiao Zhankun couldn't help but blurt out.
Ye Feng was slightly taken aback, then frowned and asked, "You know this kid?"
