Lu Shaoyang looked at the two of them holding hands and wanted to say something but could not do so. He could only force a smile with a sad look. “Please come in.” After a short pause, his gaze filled with sadness and affection fell on Shen Hanxing. He said in a low and affectionate voice, “Hanxing, I have something to tell you in a while.”
“Mr. Lu, it’s your engagement today. I’m afraid you won’t have the time,” Ji Yan’s face instantly turned cold, and he said sternly, “if there’s anything important, say it. my wife and I will be waiting for you at our seats.” After saying that, he held Shen Hanxing in his arms possessively and asked, “honey, don’t you think so?”

Jealousy engulfed Lu Shaoyang. When he met Ji Yan’s cold and deep black eyes, his face turned slightly pale. He could not help but take a step back. Su Ling stood beside him, and the beautiful manicure she had just done dug into her palm. She clenched her teeth angrily as she thought, “Shen Hanxing, this woman! Damn it! Why would she appear at Lu Shaoyang and my engagement party? What does she want to do? Could it be that it was not enough for Shen Hanxing to marry Ji Yan, but she still had to be greedy and snatch Lu Shaoyang away? No, she couldn’t! Lu Shaoyang was the man I had wanted to marry for many years. I have liked Lu Shaoyang for so long, and I would never let Shen Hanxing snatch him away!”
A cold glint flashed across Su Ling’s eyes. She smiled and held onto Lu Shaoyang’s arm, saying, “Brother Shaoyang, other guests are waiting for us to entertain.”
Lu Shaoyang looked at Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan’s backs as they walked side by side. It was as if his heart had been torn into two pieces. He wanted to be the one standing next to Shen Hanxing, but… he lowered his head and met Su Ling’s affectionate gaze, lu Shaoyang’s body stiffened, and the guilt in his heart grew stronger. His heart ached, guilt intertwined, causing his entire body to split into two pieces. On the one hand, he did not want to disappoint Su Ling, the fiancée who loved him deeply, but he could not let go of Shen Hanxing. He could only try to treat Su Ling better to make up for the guilt of not loving Su Ling. He lowered his eyes, and this time, he did not pull out the arm that Su Ling was hugging. He sighed and patted Su Ling’s head. “Let’s go and welcome the other guests.”
“Brother Shaoyang…” This was the first time Lu Shaoyang had shown Su Ling a gentle smile during this period. Su Ling was instantly pleasantly surprised and looked at Lu Shaoyang for a while, somewhat at a loss. Then, she grinned and touched the head that Lu Shaoyang had touched. She said coquettishly, “Brother Shaoyang, be gentle. Please don’t mess up my hair. The engagement party is such an important moment. I don’t want to lose my reputation.” The more she showed that she valued the engagement party, the more Lu Shaoyang felt like a knife was stabbing his heart. He felt sorry for Su Ling.
The wave of guilt almost drowned Lu Shaoyang. He smiled gently. “It’s okay. Even if your hair is messed up, you’re still the most beautiful girl.”

Seeing that the two of them were getting along well, Lu Shaoyang’s mother could not help but smile. She raised her arm and nudged her husband. “Look, Ling Ling and our Shaoyang are so compatible. When we first got engaged, Shaoyang was reluctant, but now he’s smiling so happily!”
“I feel uneasy,” Lu Guo was wearing a suit, but he didn’t look happy. He looked at Lu Shaoyang and said, “you know our son’s temper. I feel like he’s going to cause some trouble. Tell me, why did you give birth to such a troublesome thing in the first place?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Madam Lu immediately frowned in dissatisfaction, “what’s wrong with Shaoyang? He has outstanding looks and good grades. Why do you say he is a troublesome son? My son is the most obedient child! In the beginning, he was mesmerized by that woman, Shen Hanxing. He was confused for some time, but isn’t he fine now? He has also agreed to get engaged to Su Ling.” As she said this, she smiled with pride, “Su Ling is a young lady from a big family. She has a well-behaved and obedient personality. I am delighted with this daughter-in-law.”
Lu Guo also nodded. Indeed, marrying Su Ling was much better than marrying a random girl like Shen Hanxing. Su Ling was the only daughter of the Su family, and the entire Su family was her dowry. When the two of them were officially married in the future, the Su family would belong to the Lu family, and the size of the Lu family would expand again.
