Chapter 17 Engagement Banquet

at the banquet.

The guests talked and laughed happily, but their eyes were attracted by the men and women who came together outside the door.

"Isn't that the young master of the He family, He Chaozhi? Who is the woman next to him? Why isn't it Ms. Shen?"

"I heard that tonight is a banquet hosted by Young Master He and Miss Shen. Why did Young Master He bring someone else? This is too disrespectful to Miss Shen."

The guests held their wine glasses and whispered.

Countless gazes with different expressions came to him, and Song Lan took He Chaozhi's arm, walking gracefully and gracefully.

Those who didn't know her thought she was someone's rich and famous lady, and she was not at all cramped when she came and went to such occasions.

Not far away, Shen Yingxue put down her wine glass and glared at the two people who came over.

He Chaozhi and... Song Lan.

Is He Zhaozhi crazy? Tonight is obviously a banquet between himself and him, but he actually brought this unworthy woman here?
To save face!
"Yingxue, what's going on here? It's not that you and Young Master He—"

A friend behind him asked in surprise.

Shen Yingxue couldn't let go of her face, she turned around and smiled at them, pretending to be fine.

"Oh, isn't Chaozhi the character, loves to play, this is the friend he brought."

Everyone present exchanged a meaningful look.

Are you really a friend?Whose friend, in front of the future hostess, is still affectionate with the hostess, and their eyes are intertwined.

Tsk, the marriage between the He and Shen families is really chaotic.

Everyone raised their wine glasses, covering the corners of their mouths with smiling smiles.

Shen Yingxue forced herself to calm down, and holding up her skirt, she came in front of He Chaozhi who was showing Song Lan acquaintance.

The smile on her face is as precarious as a mask.

"Chaozhi, why didn't you say anything when you brought your friends over? Everyone who comes is a guest, so you can't neglect him. This is Miss Song, right?"

Shen Yingxue showed an exquisite smirk at Song Lan, and the viciousness in her eyes almost turned into substance, cutting Song Lan into pieces.

"Miss Song doesn't usually attend such high-end places, so she may be a little unfamiliar, but it's okay, I will take you, follow me, and I will take you to meet the ladies and ladies of Night City."

It's also good for Song Lan to know the difference between a sparrow and a phoenix.

Shen Yingxue pretended to be affectionate, and was about to grab Song Lan's hand.

Song Lan hid for a while.

She smiled and took He Chaozhi's arm again, snuggling up to He Chaozhi like a bird.

He leaned his head on He Zhaozhi's shoulder as if swearing his sovereignty.

"Miss Shen, thank you for your kindness, but I am Mr. He's specially brought girlfriend tonight, how can I leave Mr. He alone?"

Shen Yingxue's face almost cracked.

The two people in front of them are talented, beautiful, and concubine, not to mention how good they are.

Instead, it made her, the real heroine, look like a joke.

"He Zhaozhi, are you crazy? Tonight is our engagement banquet, engagement banquet!!"

Shen Yingxue suddenly leaned in front of He Zhaozhi, and reminded through gritted teeth.

Although tonight's banquet was not clearly stated, the He family and the Shen family, as well as all the guests, knew everything in their hearts.

This is the news that the He family and the Shen family plan to announce their marriage.

After tonight, He Zhaozhi and Shen Yingxue are a fiancee couple.

Shen Yingxue is the future young lady of the He family!
But just tonight, He Chaozhi left Shen Yingxue alone and brought a slim woman with a mysterious identity to the stage again.

And this woman is so charming that all women are jealous.

"Shen Yingxue, why are you crazy?"

The corner of He Zhaozhi's mouth curled into a smile, and he put his hand on Shen Yingxue's shoulder, exerting a little force.

Shen Yingxue was pushed away by him.

"Don't go crazy here, I still want to introduce Song Lan to my dad and Aunt Rong, if you are sensible, don't cause trouble for me, get out of the way."

He lowered his eyes and smiled at Song Lan, "Lan Lan, shall we go?"

"Okay." Song Lan leaned against He Chaozhi and passed Shen Yingxue.

Who wins and who loses is self-evident.

Lanlan...

This intimate address made Shen Yingxue almost faint.

"Look at Shen Yingxue's appearance, she acts like she can be Mrs. He all day long, but in the end, He Chaozhi doesn't like her at all, puchi—"

"On weekdays, she looks down on us the most. Her eyes are in the sky. She was pushed down by a woman of unknown origin. She really deserves it."

Behind them came the ridicule of the socialites in Night City.

Whoever makes Shen Yingxue usually domineering is ignored.

Being disgusted by He Zhaozhi now, he deserves it!

Shen Yingxue stared at Song Lan's graceful back, and attributed all the faults to Song Lan.

If it wasn't for this bitch, how could she be so ashamed.

"Song Lan... bitch, wait for me!"

He Mingchuan is bringing Jiang Yurong to toast.

Turning around, He Mingchuan's expression changed when he saw He Zhaozhi walking over with a woman he had never seen before.

"Father, Aunt Rong."

He Zhaozhi nodded at the two of them, and lazily pushed Song Lan in front of him.

"This is my girlfriend, Song Lan. Song Lan, this is my father, and Aunt Rong."

The young and beautiful woman is graceful and coquettish, her drooping eyelashes trembled into people's hearts, she softly called Uncle He, Aunt He.

No one saw Song Lan's clenched fists.

The sharp nails pierced the palm, and the dark red blood seeped out along the lines...

Jiang Yurong, long time no see.

Jiang Yurong didn't seem to know the strangeness of the woman in front of her, she looked at He Chaozhi worriedly.

"Chaozhi, don't you know the purpose of tonight's banquet?"

"I know." He Chaozhi hugged Song Lan into his arms, and firmly clasped the woman's slender waist with his big palms.

"Don't you just want me to get engaged to Shen Yingxue?"

"Knowing that you dare to bring a female companion, who do you want to lose face!?" He Mingchuan said angrily.

At this time, Shen's father and Shen's mother also came.

The marriage between the He and Shen families was supposed to be a happy event, but when Shen's father and Shen's mother heard that He Chaozhi had brought a female companion with him tonight, they hurriedly came to ask for an explanation.

"Mr. He, Yingxue of our family is the jewel in the palm of the Shen family. The engagement between the two families has already been discussed today, but Chaozhi brought a female companion and pushed Yingxue away. Are you insulting our Shen family!?"

Shen Yingxue stood behind them, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked distressed.

"Uncle He, Chaozhi and I grew up together. No one knows Chaozhi better than me. I am willing to be the daughter-in-law of the He family and honor you two elders, but it is too much for Chaozhi to do so!"

Seeing his daughter crying, Shen's father and Shen's mother were very angry.

Shen's mother hugged her daughter into her arms distressedly, scanning Song Lan in He Zhaozhi's arms with piercing eyes.

"Today, your He family must give our Shen family an explanation. Our family, Yingxue, has raised such a big family, so it's not for your He family to ruin it!"

Shen's father also said, "If we can't give an explanation, there is no need to continue this engagement banquet. Our Shen family can't afford to lose this person!"

Several members of the Shen family glared at each other, making He Mingchuan both embarrassed and angry.

He didn't know what this brat was up to today, but he just went crazy at the engagement banquet!
