Chapter 127 Engagement Banquet
The day of the engagement party came in a flash. Ning Xin was wearing a red slim-fitting dress. The makeup artist was applying makeup to her face. Looking at the beautiful woman in the mirror, the makeup artist exclaimed, "Miss, you are so beautiful."
Ning Xin just smiled.
"Xinxin." Lin Ruiyang suddenly walked over and looked at her in the makeup mirror with a warm smile on his lips.
"Xinxin, you're so beautiful." Lin Ruiyang praised from the bottom of his heart, and the love in his eyes was not hidden at all.
"It's really beautiful." Ning Xin praised herself without hesitation.
Lin Ruiyang smiled even more. He held her hand and played with it, waiting quietly for her to finish her makeup. He then took her downstairs. This was a hotel owned by the Ning family. The Lin and Ning families had been preparing for it for nearly a month.
There was a festive atmosphere everywhere. "Welcome to our protagonist today."
Ning Xin was led by Lin Ruiyang to the host. The host, dressed in formal attire, praised them highly. Ning Xin glanced at her father and brother in the audience. Next to them were the people from the Lin family. They also had smiles on their faces, and they wished they could slap their hands to pieces.
Ning Xin couldn't help but smile as she watched her father and brother happy. The scene froze and major newspapers rushed to report it.
After Lin Ruiyang said a few words, he took her off the stage. Everyone came forward to toast. Ning Ze walked over and asked, "Daughter, aren't your heels a bit high? Are your feet uncomfortable?"
"It's okay, it looks good." Ning Xin smiled mischievously.
Ning Ze smiled indulgently and said to Ning Heng and Lin Ruiyang, "You two, don't let her drink. Understand?"
"I understand, uncle." Lin Ruiyang said respectfully.
Ning Ze went to entertain other guests with peace of mind.
"Congratulations, brother-in-law." Ning Heng took the wine and clinked it with Lin Ruiyang.
"Didn't Sister Ning Jia say she would come to the engagement party? Why hasn't she come yet?" Ning Xin was puzzled.
"Maybe you want to wait until you get married before coming." Lin Ruiyang pinched her palm, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
Ning Xin nodded. She caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye and her eyes widened. "Isn't that Zhang Jiaming? Xu Meng's fiancé."
Ning Heng said lazily, "It's him. Their two families were originally going to get engaged, but the wedding date was postponed. I don't know why."
Thinking of something, "Why didn't that girl come to your engagement party today?"
Ning Xin nodded, thinking that because Xu Meng ran away from the marriage, the Xu family probably didn't tell the outside world about her disappearance for the sake of face. "She said she was not feeling well and is resting at home."
Ning Xin missed her a little. She hoped nothing happened to this girl. Many celebrities came to talk to Ning Xin. Seeing that the topic was only between girls, the two men went to entertain others.
"Ms. Ning, you look so beautiful today." Behind the top socialite Zhao Xinyuan was a group of socialites, all of whom were dressed gorgeously, noblely, and well-mannered.
"Thanks."
"You used to be the number one lady, but now that you're back, some people should give way."
Zhao Xinyuan's face was grim for a moment, then she smiled and said, "You're right. If Miss Ning wants, I can step down at any time."
She said this in a very calm and confident manner, which prevented those who wanted to laugh at her from succeeding.
Ning Xin smiled and said, "I think Miss Zhao deserves the title of the number one socialite. As for my new identity soon, I won't compete with you for it."
This statement not only lowers your own status, but also does not win their respect.
The other socialites didn't say anything else.
Zhao Xinyuan was overjoyed at the well-deserved title. "Miss Ning and Third Young Master Lin are simply a match made in heaven. They're a perfect match."
"Thanks."
"I heard that your Zhao family is going to marry into the Fu family. Is it true? When it comes to attending Miss Wan Ning's wedding, you won't be the next one to attend, right?" A socialite next to her suddenly asked.
"The Fu family, the Fu family from China?"
"Of course, apart from them, there are no other big shots with the surname Fu." The socialites appear to be friendly with each other on the surface, but they compare with each other behind the scenes, even comparing with their future husband's families. They did not show it on their faces, but they were both dissatisfied and envious in their hearts.
Ning Xin looked at Zhao Xinyuan, only to see a rare shy and proud look on her face. "We're still discussing it."
Everyone was shocked when this was said. "If this is true, Zhao Xinyuan might become the envy of all women."
"Yes, everyone knows the name of Mr. Fu from China. Although I haven't seen a photo of him, I heard that he is very handsome. Add to that his own qualities, who wouldn't like him?"
"We don't know if it will work out yet. That's the Fu family, not everyone can be attracted by them." The socialite who has always disliked Zhao Xinyuan said sourly.
Zhao Xinyuan raised her eyebrows and just smiled faintly, "Zhi Ling is right."
Ning Xin didn't listen any further and smiled at them, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Ning thought that if it was true, it would be good. She really hoped that the man could move on, but why did she feel a little sad in her heart?
Fu Beicheng has all kinds of women as long as you want, whether they are from a prominent family or beautiful women.
Ning Xin walked into the corridor and heard someone behind her say, "Miss Ning."
Turning around, she saw the polite and righteous Zhang Jiaming. Ning Xin watched him approach.
"Ms. Ning, have we met in China?"
Ning Xin looked at him with a slight smile on his lips. Zhang Jiaming's heart skipped a beat. There were many celebrities tonight, but the woman in front of him was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman of the night. Lin Ruiyang was really lucky. "Miss Ning, was it inconvenient for you to talk that time?"
Zhang Jiaming narrowed his eyes like a fox, "I saw Miss Ning chatting happily with others just now, why don't you talk every time you see me?"
"Because I don't want to." Ning Xin's face was cold.
Zhang Jiaming was stunned for a moment, then his expression instantly turned sinister. "I was wondering why you always remained silent every time you saw me. Turns out you're feeling guilty."
"I don't know what you are talking about?" Ning Xin looked innocent.
"Stop pretending. I will never forget your voice." Zhang Jiaming narrowed his eyes.
Ning Xin was silent, looking at him with her arms folded.
Zhang Jiaming gritted his teeth and said, "I have never suffered such humiliation in my life. Miss Ning, you will make me unforgettable."
"Is it because of my beauty? Thank you for your kindness, but tonight is my engagement party, so this is not appropriate."
"Why are you pretending!" Seeing that Ning Xin was playing with him and refused to admit it, the man raised his hand and wanted to grab her.
Ning Xin pushed him hard, "Master Zhang, what are you doing?"
"Don't pretend, it's you, you little bitch." He swung his fist towards Ning Xin, but before it touched her face, he was kicked away. "Who do you think you are? How dare you act wild here?"
"elder brother."
Zhang Jiaming had just drunk some wine, and now it was like a rag being kicked out, and he became much more sober.
"Mr. Ning, I didn't mean to act wildly. It's Miss Ning who has always refused to admit that I know her, so I just wanted to reminisce about the past." Zhang Jia knew that this was the Ning family's territory. He had just been impulsive, and he would slowly get back the humiliation given by this woman.
