Chapter 155: Can You Not Annul the Engagement?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Chen Ru saw Cheng Lang in the crowd, her expression changed. She walked towards Cheng Xingyang and said to him, “Your Young Uncle is here.

Let the Xing family handle tonight’s matter. Don’t be in a hurry to stand out.”

Cheng Xingyang did not speak. He stared at Xing Shu’s back and his eyes gradually turned red. “Mom, must we annul the engagement to Xing Shu?” As he spoke, his voice was extremely hoarse as he lowered his head sadly.

Chen Ru shot daggers at Cheng Xingyang and stabbed his head with her finger. “What’s wrong with you? You’re the one who doesn’t like Xing Shu, and you’re the one who wants to annul the engagement. Why are you even more reluctant than Xing Shu at the critical moment?”

The last sentence hit Cheng Xingyang’s sore spot. Yes, Xing Shu did not seem reluctant at all. Whether it was him or the Xing family, they were both existences that she could easily give up on.

Cheng Xingyang said, “Mom, I…”

“Come on, you also know that Xing Shu is sleeping around. God knows how many men and how many times. Don’t you mind her being so filthy? Don’t talk about not annulling the engagement anymore. Besides, Xing Shu doesn’t have any status now and is not worthy of you at all. It’s just that she’s somewhat competent at work to be admired by your Young Uncle. Cheng Xingyang, you need to have something to show for soon. Now that your father has been fired, don’t keep harping on love.” Cheng Xingyang was Chen Ru’s only son and she doted on him. However, she also knew very well that Cheng Xingyang did not have what it takes to do business.

Cheng Xingyang only heard one sentence after listening to such a long paragraph. “Mom, you said that Young Uncle treats Xing Shu specially because of her competence?”

Chen Ru replied, “What else could it be? Why do you think your father didn’t want you to break off the engagement with Xing Shu previously? Xing Shu’s competence is obvious to all. Your Young Uncle values talent. Have you ever seen a woman better than Xing Shu in business?”

Cheng Xingyang shook his head. His eyes gradually brightened, but when he heard Chen Ru’s next sentence, his brightness dissipated. Chen Ru shook her head. “It’s a pity that Xing Shu is a bastard. Even if you really like Xing Shu, your grandfather won’t agree. Which woman who can marry into the Cheng family isn’t the daughter of a prestigious family? Even Jiang Qinian—who married into the Cheng family—is a world-famous pianist. What’s Xing Shu?” Cheng Xingyang was comforted by these words. That’s right, Xing Shu was not worthy ofhim, so there was nothing for him to be reluctant about. He looked at Xing Linlin with a gentle gaze. He had to treat Xing Linlin well in the future.

Sensing Cheng Xingyang’s gaze, Xing Linlin looked into his eyes and smiled shyly. Cheng Xingyang immediately threw away the reluctance in his heart. Xing Shu was just a piece of trash, so there was nothing he could not bear to part with.

The atmosphere in the hall gradually warmed up. There was a small podium in front of them, and a beam of light shone on it. As the hostess, Wu Minxia slowly walked up. She could not hide the smile on her face. “Everyone…” She stood in front of the microphone and called, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Thank you for coming to tonight’s banquet. This banquet is for my biological daughter.” She waved at the people below and looked at Xing Linlin. “Linlin, come up.”

Xing Linlin was not in a good mood. She kept looking at Cheng Lang from the corner of her eye. This was the closest she had ever been to Cheng Lang. In the past—even if she had seen him—she would only look at him from afar. This time, she could even see Cheng Lang’s eyelashes clearly.

Cheng Lang did not care about his surroundings. He sat quietly in the corner with a glass of wine in his hand. Even when everyone applauded, his expression was indifferent. He did not look up or even stand up.

Xing Linlin’s heart was racing. When she saw that Cheng Lang was not with Xing Shu, she heaved a sigh of relief. Perhaps Xing Shu and Cheng Lang really met at the doorjust now. As for Cheng Lang ignoring herjust now, it was probably because he kept a distance from women? In the past, Xing Linlin felt that she was far away from Cheng Lang. But now that she was the legitimate daughter of the Xing family, she felt that she could get near Cheng Lang and make him accept her if she tried.

Xing Linlin slowly walked onto the podium and lowered her head shyly.

Wu Minxia was very satisfied with Xing Linlin. She held her hand and said with reddened eyes, “Linlin has suffered a lot over the years. If I had known that she was my biological daughter, I would have definitely doted on her more. I didn’t expect some people to be so scheming at such a young age. Fortunately, everything is in the past. The good will be rewarded. All these years, Linlin hasn’t forgotten the welfare home that raised her. Now that she has the Xing family and someone she likes, everything is slowly getting better. Everything will get better..”
