Chapter 903: Chapter 902: It’s a Pity the Bride Isn’t You (1)

Lin Hua softly said, "Excuse me, I’m going to the restroom."

She left, and everyone was astonished.

The daughter of a prestigious family, humiliated like this today, truly pitiful...

Especially Feng Sheng’s mother, who couldn’t bear to watch.

She didn’t like Lin Hua, thinking she lacked proper conduct, but seeing her being bullied by Jiang Chaoge like this, she couldn’t help but sigh. In the past, Feng Sheng held her dearly, but now that Feng Sheng is gone, how could she end up with someone surnamed Wang? Well, now she’s suffering for it!

Feng Sheng’s mother wanted to leave; she couldn’t stand the scene. Lin Hua was once Feng Sheng’s fiancée, and now that she was humiliated, it felt like her son was being humiliated. She wanted to leave, but was stopped by Madam Jiang, who convinced her to stay.

Over there, Lin Hua finished using the restroom, and while washing her hands, she thought about leaving. Who knew what King Jingyao might do next... Lin Hua was a low-key person, not wanting to stand out or make a scene.

After washing her hands, she planned to call her mother.

But when she turned around, she saw Jiang Chaoge behind her. She dried her hands and quietly looked at Jiang Chaoge.

Jiang Chaoge was courteous. After all, a person in power tends to show special leniency to those they look down on.

She softly said, "Jingyao and I are getting married."

Lin Hua remained silent.

Jiang Chaoge smiled faintly: "I know you have some involvement with him. I don’t blame you, it’s normal for women to be interested in a man like Jingyao. I’m just dealing with one after another. I might as well do you a favor. Lin Hua, if you’re smart and sensible, you’ll know what you should and shouldn’t do. Now that you have a good opportunity to meet a suitable partner, you should graciously step down and avoid inappropriate actions. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what consequences you’ll face."

Lin Hua smiled slightly, "Dr. Jiang, you’re very confident."

If it were before, Jiang Chaoge would have left some room for maneuver. But today she didn’t want to. King Jingyao had already indicated his intention to get engaged tonight, so she wouldn’t give Lin Hua any chance to exploit.

So, she was quite direct: "I mentioned, we are getting married. Miss Lin, please respect yourself."

Lin Hua smiled and nodded, "Alright, it seems there will be some special event tonight. I won’t disturb you and Mr. Wang, and I wish you a long and happy marriage."

With such grace, Jiang Chaoge found it hard to retaliate, but ultimately she couldn’t hold back and said something harsh: "In any case, Miss Lin, please do not ruin my happiness."

Lin Hua smiled lightly, and without a care in the world, turned to leave, but Jiang Chaoge grabbed her.

Lin Hua frowned, "What else do you want?"

Jiang Chaoge quietly said, "I don’t trust you."

Word by word, she said, "I want you to witness my engagement ceremony with Jingyao."

Lin Hua smirked: ’Jiang Chaoge, aren’t you being a bit forceful?’

"Whether it’s forceful, I decide, especially if Miss Lin is sensible." Jiang Chaoge finally tasted the sweetness of power, and it thrilled her completely.

And she was surprisingly strong, Lin Hua couldn’t break free.

Just as her hand started to hurt, Old Wang appeared out of nowhere. Upon seeing the scene, he smiled, "Chaoge, why are you holding Lin Hua’s hand?"

Jiang Chaoge was startled, not wanting Wang Jingyao to think she was not ladylike. She immediately softened her voice and explained, "Jingyao, Lin Hua was about to leave, and I wanted her to stay a little longer."

She observed his expression and cautiously asked, "You won’t blame me, will you?"

Wang Jingyao spoke softly, "How could I?"

He paused, smiling, "The elderly are coming over, let’s head to the hall."

After he finished speaking, his gaze quickly glanced over Lin Hua’s face.

Despite being someone close to him, Lin Hua realized what he intended when his gaze touched hers. Instinctively, she wanted to retreat. What was he planning at the Jiang family banquet?

Lin Hua wanted to leave, but Wang Jingyao didn’t stop her. Instead, Jiang Chaoge did on his behalf, "Lin Hua, if you leave now, it shows you have a problem with me. Jingyao will blame me too, thinking I did something to you. Wouldn’t you be making it difficult for me?"

Lin Hua considered herself quite patient, but even she felt Jiang Chaoge was too insincere at this moment. Clearly a fake display and throwing her enemy under the bus without hesitation.

Jiang Chaoge said so, and Wang Jingyao supported her, smiling faintly, "Yes Lin Hua, you’re in the wrong here. How can you not attend my engagement?"

Lin Hua: ...

Wang Jingyao stepped back, walking out first, his voice trailing off: "Alright, hurry up, the elderly aren’t very patient and they’ll certainly scold."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chaoge hurriedly lifted her skirt and followed, not caring about Lin Hua anymore.

Lin Hua stood for a while before slowly walking out.

In the banquet hall, all was joy, the entire Jiang Family seemed ready to soar.

The elderly had arrived, making a grand entrance, not alone. The Wang family relatives all came, their gifts piled into a mountain, mesmerizing everyone in the Jiang Family.

Such grandeur, Madam Jiang kept saying to Mother Jiang, "Your Chaoge is truly blessed, so many good things we rarely see in normal days."

There was some envy in her words. Jiang Chaoge happened to overhear, casually saying, "Auntie, feel free to pick whatever you like."

After saying it, she realized it wasn’t proper etiquette, quickly smiling to cover it up.

The elderly lady heard it too, showing no expression but feeling some disdain inside. What kind of girl acts so inexperienced and unreserved?

She cast a sidelong glance at her son, "Jingyao, this is the last time I’ll worry about your affairs. There’s no next time, so take good care of your wife. We can’t afford any mishaps."

Wang Jingyao wanted to speak, but his throat felt blocked, and after a while, he hoarsely said, "Thank you for your concern, grandma."

The elderly lady smiled again, "Concern is too strong a word; I just hope you treat her well. Don’t rush children or anything; let things happen naturally."

"Of course, I think so too, grandma." Old Wang nodded.

Later, the elderly lady gave many more instructions. Each time she spoke, Old Wang nodded, back and forth, until the elderly lady felt it was enough. Then she asked, "After all this talk, where is the kid?"

Everyone looked at Jiang Chaoge, and Madam Jiang even pushed Jiang Chaoge forward a bit, joyfully saying, "Elderly lady, Chaoge has been here all along. Our Chaoge is truly lucky, being guided by a person like you. Elderly lady, I’m not boasting, but when Chaoge was born, the clouds in the sky resembled a phoenix, and the fortune teller said her fate was extremely prosperous. I didn’t believe it at first when Chaoge was struggling, but today I have to believe."

After speaking, Madam Jiang covered her mouth, chuckling.

Jiang Chaoge felt a bit embarrassed: ’Auntie, those things aren’t believable.’

The elderly lady nodded, "Indeed, it’s not believable, as we should value science now."

Madam Jiang was stunned, feeling awkward, as was Jiang Chaoge. But they quickly adjusted, finding a way to step down.

But at this moment, the elderly lady wasn’t listening to them at all. She was solely focused on her son’s engagement, engagement, engagement...

As for Lin Hua, where did the child hide?

Could it be Jingyao hasn’t told her yet?
