Lu Feng smiled and said, “Brother, don’t forget your promise.” As he said that, he exchanged a look with Shen Hanxing.

The conflict was temporarily settled. No matter what the crowd was thinking, the banquet hall returned to its original lively state. After receiving the guests, Lu Shaoyang brought Su Ling into the banquet hall. He searched everywhere to look for Shen Hanxing. When he finally saw her, his eyes instantly lit up. He said a few words to Su Ling before striding toward Shen Hanxing. Su Ling was left standing alone with a face full of unwillingness.

“Hanxing, can I talk to you alone?” Lu Shaoyang looked at Ji Yan with fear as he said that. Then, he continued with a pleading look in his eyes, “Can you give me a few minutes, please?”

Ji Yan’s gaze was as sharp as a knife. He gave out an icy cold aura.

“We have nothing to talk about.” Shen Hanxing was unmoved. She said indifferently, “Today is your engagement party. Do not provoke me.” Otherwise, she might leave fingerprints on Lu Shaoyang’s face at his engagement party.

When Shen Hanxing said this, Lu Shaoyang thought of something and turned it into a painful expression. He said with a struggling voice, “Hanxing… I had no choice. Don’t blame me…”

Shen Hanxing was confused. She looked at Lu Shaoyang and asked seriously, “Are you out of your mind?” She was clearly warning him not to bother her. How could he not get such a simple statement?

“Mr. Lu, you’ve already engaged. Please don’t think about my wife anymore.” Ji Yan’s dark eyes were full of warning. “Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.” He had already warned Lu Shaoyang. Ji Yan would not hesitate to teach Lu Shaoyang a lesson if he continued doing that. He would do that before Shen Hanxing could make a move.

“Mr. Ji, you can’t force things,” Lu Shaoyang mustered up his courage and said. With a pale face, he looked Ji Yan in the eye and continued, “I know you have money and power, but you can’t exchange these for true love! It won’t last long if you snatch it from someone else. Do you think you can get a true love with your money and power?” There was a hint of empathy in his eyes. “People like you don’t know what love is. People like you can never get true love!”

Ji Yan was silent. He felt that Shen Hanxing was right. Lu Shaoyang was indeed mentally ill. They were so in love, so what was Lu Shaoyang talking about?

“Hanxing, I know the purpose of your visit today. I believe we share the same feelings.” Lu Shaoyang looked at Shen Hanxing with a pleading look in his eyes. “Can we have a few words?” He reckoned that Shen Hanxing did not dare to speak the truth with Ji Yan around. Ji Yan’s power was monstrous. He could be killed by Ji Yan so easily, but it did not matter. He was willing to stand up for Shen Hanxing. He was willing to give up everything!

Lu Shaoyang’s eyes were lit up with a burning light as if he was anticipating something. Because of his excitement, his face was flushed. Shen Hanxing was suddenly curious about what he wanted to say. She thought for a moment and nodded. “Alright, then let’s talk outside.” After saying that, before she got up and left, she comforted Ji Yan who had an ugly expression. Shen Hanxing planted a gentle kiss on Ji Yan’s cheek and said, “I’ll be right back.”

Although Ji Yan was not very pleased, he was comforted by Shen Hanxing’s kiss. He nodded and said, “Okay.”

“Hanxing!” Just as he left the banquet hall, Lu Shaoyang pounced on Shen Hanxing without hesitation and hugged her. “I know how you feel. I will not let you down this time!”

“If you want to talk, then talk. Stay away from me!” Shen Hanxing frowned and distanced herself from Lu Shaoyang at once. She said coldly, “Do you think I’m unaware of your motives?”

“Hanxing, are you still angry with me? Are you jealous?” Lu Shaoyang felt his conscience and said. He gave her a sweet look. “Hanxing, I love you the most. I’m marrying Su Ling because I’m forced by my family.” After a pause, he seemed to have made up his mind and said solemnly, “Hanxing, let’s run away together!”

Shen Hanxing was full of confusion. Lu Shaoyang was such a weirdo. She could not help but ask, “Why on earth do you think I would run away together with you?”
