"Mrs. Lin, these earrings are expensive, aren’t they? Should I take them off? I’m afraid they might get lost in the crowd."
Lin Zhiya was extrely pleased with her look tonight and wouldn’t let her take them off, "If they get lost, then they get lost—just a pair of earrings. We can buy new ones. Yanyan, I can already picture you being the center of attention tonight. This is the first ti I’m so eager to attend a banquet."
"..."
Isn’t that an exaggeration?
Little Baby popped up from sowhere, his eyes sparkling as he admired, "Mom looks so pretty~"
Rong Yan is stunning tonight!
With his mom looking so beautiful, he wanted to hide her away. What if so nasty uncle took a liking to her? One big baddie was annoying enough; he didn’t want more people competing for his mom! Tonight, he planned to stick by her side every step of the way, not giving those baddies a chance!
Unaware of her little one’s protective plans for Yanyan, Lin Zhiya checked the ti and urged Yanyan to get ready to leave.
Luxury cars gathered outside the Haoli Hotel, and inside, celebrities and important figures crowded the venue, almost all influential people had gathered here, with a continuous stream of famous personalities.
Lin Teng had called Zhiya earlier to ask if she would co, but Zhiya hadn’t given him a definite response at the ti, so he had to greet other guests with Su Yi first.
There were so many guests that he was overwheld until he received a call from Lin Zhiya.
"Hello? Zhiya. You’re coming? That’s great! Have you arrived? Is Shengxiao also there? I’ll co out to et you. Huh? You’re still on the road? How much longer will it take? Ten minutes? Okay, I’ll co out in ten minutes to et you. Yes, call when you arrive!"
"Who was that, Zhiya’s call? I thought I heard you ntion her na. Is Zhiya coming?" Su Yi, who had also dressed up specially today, looking elegant and distinguished—naturally different from the fine ladies of Capital City.
Lin Teng laughed heartily, his rough and joyful face barely hiding his excitent, "Yes, it was Zhiya. She said she’s on her way. After so many years, she is finally taking the first step. Mom will be so happy to see her!"
Su Yi genuinely shared his happiness, softly adding, "Dad will be happy to see Zhiya too. Actually, both mom and dad have been looking forward to Zhiya’s return. Ah, it’s been so long since the past events, it’s high ti for a reconciliation. But dad and Zhiya are both so stubborn, neither willing to make the first move. Now that Zhiya is willing to co, dad might also find an opportunity to step down..."
"Ah!" Lin Teng sighed, "Hopefully. I just fear that dad’s old stubborn streak will flare up again. Last ti he summoned Rong Yan ho, Shengxiao didn’t even know. If Shengxiao and Zhiya find out, it could lead to a disaster, with both sides leaving unhappy! Sotis I really don’t understand what dad is thinking."
Su Yi, with a complex expression, hoped for a harmonious family reunion but also understood Sir Lin’s perspective. All she could do was pat her husband’s hand in comfort, whispering, "Dad has his considerations, we as the younger generation shouldn’t interfere too much. If Shengxiao and Miss Rong are truly ant to be, they will end up together."
She didn’t say that if they didn’t end up together, it would rely an that fate wasn’t sufficient.
She knew Lin Teng didn’t like hearing that.
Saying that would only lead to unpleasantness between them.
