Chapter 823: Chapter 823: A Painting Symbolizing A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union

Wu Qianqing walked towards the banquet. Zheng Shaosu followed behind her. With his towering height of 1.88 ters, she walked gracefully in front, while he casually followed with his hands in his pockets.

Eyes filled with amusent.

It was hard not to overthink it.

“Emperor Zheng, you guys are back?” Li Xingwan and the others were mingling. Seeing them return, she greeted them.

Zheng Shaosu nodded his head behind Wu Qianqing.

As if he couldn’t walk in front of her.

This caused Wu Qianqing’s eyelids to twitch.

“Ms. Li, there might be a jewelry auction later. How about we go together?”

Li Xingwan had previously said that Zheng Shaosu was a scumbag.

Li Xingwan glanced at her, then at Emperor Zheng. Thinking about the 100,000 red envelopes, she shook her head. “I have Mr. Fu tonight.”

I have Mr. Fu tonight…

She was actually showing off her affection!!

Besides, they were just strangers in a marriage before. It’s only recently that they’ve gotten more familiar and intimate.

So, more bonding was appropriate.

Naturally, she wouldn’t let Wu Qianqing join.

Of course, it wasn’t intentional.

Fu Chengzhou’s expression improved significantly. His gaze was dotingly focused on Li Xingwan.

Wu Qianqing: “…” She gritted her teeth.

“I think we could go together.” Lin Yunxuan spoke up at this mont. Besides, she wanted to escape from Emperor Bo. “Empress Wu, it’s also my first ti at such a banquet. I’m not familiar with everything. How about we check out the auctioned jewelry together later?”

Emperor Bo looked at her.

Lin Yunxuan: “…”

Empress Wu declined. One, she wasn’t familiar with Lin Yunxuan. Two, she was slow to warm up. Three, Bo Jinkun had rarely brought a woman along, which suggested their relationship wasn’t ordinary. His thoughts weren’t ordinary either.

So…

“I think I’ll stick with Emperor Zheng.” Wu Qianqing smiled.

Lin Yunxuan: “…”

Damn it…

Li Xingwan wanted to laugh at this scene. She bit her lip and suppressed it.

Zheng Shaosu was very satisfied.

Soon, he introduced Wu Qianqing as his companion to everyone.

The two of them went to another side. Bo Jinkun also went to chat with others. Li Xingwan, in her role as Chengzhou’s wife, collaborated with his business acquaintances.

She had been in the entertainnt industry for years and thought she had t all sorts of complex people. But the people in the business world were even craftier.

“Tired?” Fu Chengzhou looked down at her. With a large hand, he pulled her close and pinched the soft flesh at her waist.

Li Xingwan’s face turned beet red. What she couldn’t handle the most now was physical contact with Fu Chengzhou.

“Still okay.”

Fu Chengzhou saw through it but didn’t ntion it. He led her to a nearby sofa.

At this mont, soone approached them. “Mr. Fu, please take a look at this painting?”

Fu Chengzhou’s gaze fell. It was a traditional Chinese painting with nothing particularly noticeable.

Then the person spoke.

“This is a painting symbolizing a harmonious union for a hundred years.”

“Harmonious union for a hundred years?”

“Yes.” The person smiled. It was apparent that this individual was well-known in both the art and business circles. “Look closely. Isn’t there sothing different? Perhaps two hands clasped together?”

Upon hearing this, Fu Chengzhou and Li Xingwan both focused on the painting. However, due to the artist’s powerful and bold style, with clear and distinct colors, it was hard to spot any hands in the painting.

“Can’t tell, right?” The artist said proudly.
