Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Today, You Are the Most Beautiful Woman_1

“Yufei, did my father call you?” Xiao Lang came in, grasping her hand, asking nervously.

Jiang Yufei looked at him, hesitated for a moment, then said, “He did.”

“What did he say?”

“He said that I am a divorced woman, that I’m not suitable for you, and that he does not want us to get engaged,” Jiang Yufei said truthfully.

Xiao Lang frowned tightly, advising her, “Don’t listen to him. This is our business. As long as we want to be together, it’s enough.”

“But he’s your father…”

“Yufei, this is just an engagement, not a wedding. We can get engaged first and then slowly persuade him to agree with us being together. You have to have confidence in me, okay?”

“Mm,” she nodded, smiling.

Xiao Lang hugged her, kissed her forehead, and let her go, saying, “Alright, you should rest early. The engagement ceremony tomorrow will be tiring. Take care of yourself so you and the child won’t get tired.”

“You too, go back and rest early.” Jiang Yufei smiled softly.

Xiao Lang turned around, opened the door, said goodbye to her, then closed the door and left.

Jiang Yufei tucked away her smile. In her mind, she agreed with Xiao Lang’s words. They could get engaged first. The rest could be settled after the engagement.

—————

Early the next morning, Jiang Yufei was taken to the hotel by several female employees of the restaurant.

She did not tell her family about her engagement, so Xiao Lang arranged for several female staff members to accompany her, posing as her family.

In a hotel lounge, a makeup artist was doing her makeup.

After changing into her dress, she looked stunning. With makeup, she was even more charming and attractive.

A female employee laughed enviously, “Our boss’s wife is so gorgeous. If only I could look this beautiful on the day of my engagement.”

“Want to get married? Go find someone. How can you get engaged without finding someone first?”

“Go away, you’re still single.”

“I have my sights set on the boss, so I’ve remained single. Unfortunately, the boss is now taken…”

“You wish! Be careful or the boss’s wife will fire you!”

Jiang Yufei listened to their laughter and joined in.

Xiao Lang came in, smiling as he asked, “Everyone is laughing, what are you talking about?”

“Boss, we’re saying how beautiful the boss’s wife is.”

The man in the immaculate white suit walked behind Jiang Yufei. In the reflection of the mirror, he looked at her, a charming, elegant smile spreading across his handsome face.

“Yufei, today, you are the most beautiful woman.”

Jiang Yufei blushed slightly, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him.

For some reason, she felt very nervous. This was just an engagement and she was already this nervous, she wondered how much more nervous she would be on the day of their wedding.

Just then, a waiter came in and said to Xiao Lang, “Mr. Xiao, someone outside is looking for you.”

Xiao Lang looked perplexed, “Who is looking for me?”

“He didn’t give a name.”

“Yufei, I’ll go have a look. I’ll come back for you in a bit.”

“Mm, you go.” Jiang Yufei gave a small smile.

Xiao Lang patted her shoulder and turned to leave.

She turned to watch him leave, her nerves taut and tinged with apprehension. It reminded her of the unease and fear a bride-to-be must feel — a girl leaving her family for the first time, perturbed and uncertain about her future.

A black sedan was parked at the hotel entrance. Xiao Lang approached, and after the occupant said something to him, he opened the car door and got in. The sedan started up slowly and drove away from the hotel.

Xiao Lang never returned after that.
