165: C165 He Didn't Break His Promise

C165 He Didn't Break His Promise

Lu Chen had not returned for a long time. Qiao Yumeng's palms were full of cold sweat, but she could not show her fear. She looked at the unfamiliar guests with a smile on her face.

With Lu's Group's status in Nancheng, there were many guests who came by themselves, even if Lu family did not invite them.

Many guests Qiao Yumeng had never seen before came to Qiao Yumeng's room to praise her. She nodded her head to express her gratitude, but her heart was already about to explode.

"Mom." Qiao Yuxi reached out her small hand to hold Qiao Yumeng's hand. Others could not tell that Qiao Yumeng was in a bad mood but Qiao Yuxi could feel it.

"Okay." Qiao Yumeng gently shook Qiao Yuxi's hand.

On the day of the engagement, if the male lead did not appear, she would really become a joke in Nancheng.

If Lu Chen regretted it, she would just leave Nancheng and never come back. But if... if something happened to him, what should she do?

Too many complicated emotions interweaved, making Qiao Yumeng feel so flustered that she almost couldn't sit still.

"Yumeng." The door to the room was pushed open. It was Cheng Nuo.

"You..." Qiao Yumeng wanted to ask her why she came, but when she thought of Lu Chen's words that day, she smiled again. Cheng Nuo was safe now.

"So beautiful." Cheng Nuo walked over and reached out to hold Qiao Yumeng's shoulder. She lowered her head and looked seriously at her, "My Yumeng is getting engaged, so good."

"I'm very happy that you can come." Qiao Yumeng reached out and held Cheng Nuo in her arms.

Cheng Nuo's appearance made her panic calm down a little.

"Fu Qianchen went to pick me up." Cheng Nuo's hand gently patted Qiao Yumeng's back.

Qiao Yumeng was stunned and looked at the door.

At the door of the room, Fu Qianchen stood there and looked at her from afar. It was too far and Qiao Yumeng could not see the emotions in his eyes clearly. It seemed to be calm but also seemed to be surging.

Seeing Qiao Yumeng looking at him, He hesitated before coming in.

"Thank you for going to fetch Cheng Nuo." Qiao Yumeng smiled at Fu Qianchen, but no one knew how sad it was to see this man whom she once regarded as her life on the day of her engagement.

"No need to thank me." After Fu Qianchen answered, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say anything.

"Where's our male lead?" Even Cheng Nuo could feel the change in the atmosphere between Qiao Yumeng and Fu Qianchen, so she changed the topic.

"He..." Qiao Yumeng frowned and was about to say, "He received a phone call. He said something happened at the company and left."

"How big of a matter could he abandon such a beautiful fiancée?" Cheng Nuo teased Qiao Yumeng.

Time passed in a flash. Three hours later, the hotel could already be described as crowded with people. Lu Chen still did not appear.

At first, Cheng Nuo was very calm. She even played games with Qiao Yuxi. Now she could not sit still anymore. Several times she craned her neck to look at the hotel lobby, "Yumeng, what's wrong with Lu Chen? It will soon be dinner time. If he doesn't appear, how can this engagement continue?"

"Yes." Qiao Yumeng nodded and her hand consciously pinched her skirt.

"I'll call him and ask him." Fu Qianchen took a deep look at Qiao Yumeng before he stood up and walked out. When he went out, he passed by Lu Yunshen who was walking in.

Lu Yunshen glanced at Fu Qianchen and walked in. He asked Qiao Yumeng, "Where's Lu Chen? I can't stop those guests."

"He can't get through." Fu Qianchen walked in.

"I see." Qiao Yumeng had expected that today would not be a peaceful day. When she heard Fu Qianchen's words, her emotions did not fluctuate much.

"Are you happy?" Lu Yunshen suddenly said.

Qiao Yumeng's heart skipped a beat. She looked up at Lu Yunshen and realized that he was staring at Fu Qianchen when he said that.1

Fu Qianchen looked at Lu Yunshen calmly without saying anything.

Lu Yunshen did not care whether he answered or not. He continued, "Fu Qianchen, this is your ex-wife's engagement party. Why are you here? Stealing?"

Qiao Yumeng felt that with Fu Qianchen's personality, he would only think that Lu Yunshen's words were buzzing. But she did not expect him to look at Lu Yunshen with an ugly expression and say, "Don't talk too much and you won't die."

"Did you get angry out of embarrassment because I hit the mark?"

"Enough." Cheng Nuo frowned and looked at Lu Yunshen. She only wanted Qiao Yumeng to be happy and did not want to care about anything else.

Lu Yunshen looked at Cheng Nuo and his Adam's apple rolled a few times. In the end, he did not say anything.

Later on, many of the guests downstairs guessed that this engagement party had become a joke. Lu Yunshen went out to calm the mood of the guests.

"I'll go to the entrance of the hotel to take a look." After Cheng Nuo finished speaking, she hurried out.

"Mom, I want to stink." Qiao Yuxi reached out and held Qiao Yumeng's hand.

"Okay." Qiao Yumeng brought Qiao Yuxi into the bathroom and prepared everything for Qiao Yuxi. She closed the bathroom door and waited at the door.

Fu Qianchen stood behind Qiao Yumeng and looked at her. He was very engrossed. After a long while, he suddenly said, "Do you love him?"

Qiao Yumeng was stunned and turned to look at Fu Qianchen.

Being stared at by Qiao Yumeng, Fu Qianchen subconsciously turned his head and looked out of the window. He said, "It was my fault for what happened in the past. I wanted to make it up to you, but..."

"I'm back." The door to the room was pushed open and Lu Chen appeared at the door.

Fu Qianchen was shocked for a moment. He tidied up his emotions and looked at Lu Chen. He smiled and asked, "It's been so long since I came back. I'm not afraid that your fiancée will be snatched away by me."

"You won't." After Lu Chen finished answering, he walked directly to Qiao Yumeng. He reached out and hugged Qiao Yumeng. He whispered, "I'm sorry for making you wait so long."

"It's okay." Qiao Yumeng felt relieved after she answered.

It was good that he did not break his promise.

"In the future, slowly carry it again. The guests downstairs are about to ascend to heaven." At the door of the room, another man walked in. Qiao Yumeng had seen him before. His name was Zuo Muye. The last time she saw him was during her wedding with Fu Qianchen.

"Thank you for your hard work." Lu Chen patted Zuo Muye on the shoulder.

"No," Zuo Muye said. After all, this is your engagement banquet." Zuo Muye's mouth twitched. When he looked at Qiao Yumeng, he did not know if it was Qiao Yumeng's illusion. He always felt that his eyes were a little cold.

"Let's go." Lu Chen reached out and held Qiao Yumeng's hand.

Under such circumstances, normal people would feel their blood boiling. However, Qiao Yumeng felt that her fingertips were a little cold.

It was probably because the first half of her life was too bitter that she stubbornly believed that it was impossible for her to obtain happiness so easily. That was why it was like this?

"Why is your hand so cold?" Lu Chen was a little surprised. He reached out and held Qiao Yumeng's hand. He did not care that Fu Qianchen and Zuo Muye were still there. He directly held her hand and yawned.

The warmth spread from his fingers to the bottom of his heart. Qiao Yumeng couldn't help but laugh.

In fact, happiness had always been there.
