Chapter 206 – The Engagement Ceremony (2)
Lihua glowered at him. "How dare you! Why will she betray me?"
"If she could betray me who fed her all this time and made her fat, then you have just stepped into her life," he sneered. "Tch. Never knew I was taking care of a traitor all this time."
Lihua smacked him on his arm that hardly had any effect on him. "She is an adorable cat and she will never leave my side. You are still salty about it. When will you admit that she is my cat!"
"Oh yes, now I finally admit that is your cat," he smiled.
Lihua beamed and grinned in pride. "See? You finally came to terms with it."
"A useless traitor like her can never be my pet. She is one dumb cat for leaving my side and she chose another dumb woman as her new master. You two actually are made for each other."
She choked in her saliva.
The people around her were whispering amongst themselves as to who she was, who was so casually talking to Mingshen. No woman ever dared to utter a word to him. Even if he was devilishly handsome, his reputation was well-known as an eccentric man. Many women still fearlessly approached him attracted by his bad boy charms but if they pestered him more than his limits, there was only one fate decided for them.
Become his research subject.
Lihua gritted her teeth. "You are a doctor, right? First go and treat your poison tongue!"
Mingshen smirked.
As if Mingshen wasn't enough, the ladies fainted to see Wei walk up to her.
"What are you looking for? I will help you."
His gentle voice was full of doting and concern. Everybody was shell-shocked to see the warm, springlike light in his eyes.
"My Lihua has disappeared!" She cried. "She would be in danger if we don't find her soon."
"Ah. She is fine. Shen Yang called me to say that Lihua is with him."
She brightened. "Oh is that so? That means she is safe! Phew!"
Mingshen chuckled. "Don't worry about a traitor so much. She might discard you in the blink of an eye."
The pain of betrayal ran deep in his heart.
Let me get my hands on you, you stupid cat! I will treat you as my most precious research subject of all time. Even more precious than Song Jia!
The lights dimmed and it focused on the center podium where Wen Yaoting's father, Wen Qiang took the mike.
"Ladies and gentleman. Tonight is an extremely joyous event for me as my son Yaoting will be engaged to Jiang Ruiling. It is my honor to welcome her into my family as my daughter-in-law. Thank you all for coming to witness this beautiful ceremony tonight. Please give them your blessings."
Everybody clapped their hands.
Lihua sighed.
It was finally the ceremony night tonight but Jiang Ruiling still hadn't done anything to stop her engagement.
What is she planning that will break it off?
Wei glanced at his wife who seemed to be really thinking hard about something. He softly patted her head. "What are you thinking about?"
Lihua pursed her lips and sighed. She whispered, "Wondering about Jiang Ruiling…"
Wei said, "You don't have to. She doesn't need our help."
"I hope that she doesn't."
Mingshen mocked, "Don't pressurize your dumb brain cells anymore than this or they will explode."
Lihua had an urge to break a glass on his head!
She wrapped her arm around Wei's arm and harrumphed. "Wei. Let's maintain our distance from this crazy doctor. Otherwise we would become as crazy as him!"
Wei nodded.
What his wife said goes so…
"En. Let's go."
Mingshen merely snorted.
Wen Qiang continued on the stage. "The ceremony will start in some time. Until then, please enjoy our service."
He stepped down and walked up to Old Madam who was seated on a couch holding a cup of tea in her fingers. Ruomei was standing beside her but not too close.
Wen Qiang smiled. "Greetings, Old Madam."
The Old Madam nodded. "Nice preparations you have done here."
"Thank you, Old Madam. After all, it's the ceremony of my one and only son."
His wife, Wen Xifeng said, "We are so lucky to have Jiang Ruiling as our daughter-in-law. She is perfect for Yaoting. I cannot wait for the ceremony to begin."
Ruomei raised her brow and inwardly chuckled.
I wonder if you will eat your words but once the drama starts…
She excused herself and walked into a corner. She looked left and right and seeing nhoe nobody was around her, she dialed a number.
"Tell me. What is she planning?"
Once she got to know that there was some questionable relationship between Jiang Ruiling and Shen Yang, she had ordered her spy to keep an eye on her and dig about her plan to break this ceremony tonight.
The spy on the other end whispered the news he just received from sources. Ruomei slightly widened her eyes. "I see. This is a hundred percent confirmed, right?"
"Yes. No doubt about it."
"Great. I will wire you the money."
She hung up. "Hm…."
Ruomei smiled.
"Not much fancy but still effective. Now what should I do to ruin it?"
She gave it a thought and coming to a decision, she dialed a number. "Hello…"
—
"Hahaha…" Wen Yaoting along with his father was busy socializing with some of their business partners.
A waitress came by and served them their drinks. Wen Yaoting chose a wine glass, but Wen Qiang stopped him. "Yaoting! This is not the time to drink!" He angrily whispered.
Wen Yaoting rolled his eyes. "It's just wine, Dad. Who gets drunk on wine? Stop nagging."
"You…" he trembled in anger, "I don't want to see a drunk groom on the stage tonight! The ceremony will be starting soon!"
"Don't worry, you won't."
He gulped down his wine and kept it aside. Five minutes later, he felt his head buzz and saw everything spinning around.
Wen Yaoting excused himself to the washroom when the lights suddenly went off.
