C156 Jealousy
Hearing that, Lin Lang curiously looked towards the door. Her expression immediately darkened — — it was Xue Zhaowu!
This damned fellow, they've already cancelled their engagement. What is he doing here now? Could it be that he was here on purpose to humiliate her?
Lin Lang saw that the guests were looking back and forth between her and Xue Zhaowu. She stomped her feet in anger and turned around, not wanting to see this annoying guy again.
"Young Master Xue, I didn't expect that you would actually attend my birthday party. It's such an honor!" Zheng Jinghao stretched out his hand, shook hands with Xue Zhaowu and said with a smile.
"Where? Where? This is my little heart, I hope that Young Master Zheng will not mind it! " Xue Zhaowu glanced at Lin Lang, who had her back facing him. He smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries with Zheng Jinghao before handing the gift in his hand over to Zheng Jinghao.
"Young Master Xue is really going to spend it!" Zheng Jinghao received the gift from Xue Zhaowu. Without even opening it, he handed it to the waiter at the side and put it away.
Lin Lang couldn't help but turn around and angrily glared at Xue Zhaowu. She angrily said: "Xue Zhaowu, did your brain get kicked by a donkey, or was it caught by the door? Now that everyone knows that the two of us have canceled our engagement and that you're still here, are you trying to embarrass me? "
Hearing that, Xue Zhaowu couldn't help but roll his eyes at Lin Lang, and then he snappily said, "Yeah! In terms of embarrassment, it should be because of me! After all, looking at your status as a woman, what my Xue Family has announced to the outside world is that the reason we cancelled our marriage is because your young miss Lin doesn't like me. As if I like you! I have already suffered such a loss, and now you still have the nerve to question me? "
Hearing this, Lin Lang could only shut her mouth quietly and stand to the side.
"If I had known that your young miss Lin was such an ungrateful and ungrateful person, I would have announced to the world that I didn't like you and not that you didn't like me. Perhaps, I shouldn't have cancelled the marriage. I want to see what you would do then." Xue Zhaowu looked at Lin Lang and said with raised eyebrows.
"Xue Zhaowu, you — —" Lin Lang pointed angrily at Xue Zhaowu's nose, but she didn't know how to refute Xue Zhaowu's words.
"Young miss Lin, you've been abroad for two or three years. Could it be that you've forgotten all about etiquette?" Xue Zhaowu raised his eyebrows and said as he reached out to take Lin Lang's hand away.
Lin Lang stared fiercely at Xue Zhaowu and suddenly had a flash of inspiration. She pointed to the direction of the door with a face full of joy. Her voice wasn't soft as she said, "Eh, isn't that Jing Sung?"
Hearing that, Xue Zhaowu quickly turned around, but he did not see Soong Shiyan's familiar figure.
Zheng Jinghao also did not see Soong Shiyan's figure. He reluctantly retracted his gaze, looked at Lin Lang, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Cousin, didn't you just say that Jing Sung came? Why didn't I see her? "
Xue Zhaowu saw Lin Lang's sneering expression and realized that he had fallen into her trap. He glared at Lin Lang angrily, but the two of them didn't say a word.
Zheng Jinghao watched the little act between Xue Zhaowu and Lin Lang. Only then did he realize that Lin Lang had been teasing Xue Zhaowu on purpose. In other words, Xue Zhaowu was also interested in Jing Sung?
Zheng Jinghao was enlightened. No wonder Xue Zhaowu hadn't brought up the matter of annulling the marriage. Now, he had suddenly convinced his elders and successfully annulled the marriage. It turned out that it was because he had fallen for Jing Sung. Zheng Jinghao looked at Xue Zhaowu defensively as he thought of the strong opponent he faced.
… ….
"Cousin, cousin, Jing Sung is here." Lin Lang suddenly pushed Zheng Jinghao, who was beside her, and reminded him.
The two men had been fooled once by Lin Lang's "wolf came" trick and no longer believed Lin Lang's words. They both stared at her with suspicion.
"What I said was the truth — Cousin, if you don't believe me, don't regret it later!" Lin Lang punched Zheng Jinghao angrily.
She was just lying to Xue Zhaowu, this retard, now he doesn't believe her! At that time, if Shiyan was taken away by someone, then don't blame her, this cousin, for not helping him!
Zheng Jinghao saw that Lin Lang was really angry and knew that she wasn't lying to him. Then, he turned his head and looked towards the door. Sure enough, he saw Soong Shiyan's figure.
Soong Shiyan was wearing a white dress with a Chinese style, which made her skin look even whiter. The waist of the dress was covered with fine embroidery, with fine stitches and lines. The workmanship was extremely fine, making her waist look even more slender. Her curly hair fell behind her and the tassels on her diamond hair fell by her ears, adding a touch of elegance and gentleness. Under the illumination of the light, there seemed to be water flowing within the pink fingernails.
Soong Shiyan slightly lifted her long skirt and walked towards the hall, revealing a pair of exquisite white crystal shoes. Noble Miss looked enviously at the pair of crystal shoes, not even willing to blink.
Soong Shiyan walked gracefully towards Zheng Jinghao and the whole hall quieted down gradually. Xue Zhaowu saw Zheng Jinghao standing blankly on the spot and turned his head around curiously. He saw Soong Shiyan walking slowly towards him with skirt in one hand and an exquisite box in the other.
Xue Zhaowu couldn't help but hold his breath, afraid that he would destroy this moving and beautiful picture scroll.
Seeing Soong Shiyan walk over, Lin Lang suddenly remembered something. She pinched Zheng Jinghao's arm tightly and whispered in his ear, "Cousin, don't let anyone know that I've met Jing Sung in private. Even more so, don't let anyone know that I have a good relationship with her."
"Ah?" "Why?" Zheng Jinghao touched his sore spot and asked puzzledly, without looking at Lin Lang. His gaze was still fixed on Soong Shiyan.
"Just do as I say! Let me tell you, if you let others know about this, then don't expect me to tie you to Jing Sung, okay? " Lin Lang saw that Zheng Jinghao was staring at Soong Shiyan absent-mindedly, so she threatened him fiercely.1
"Alright, alright, I understand." When Zheng Jinghao heard that Lin Lang didn't want him to connect with Jing Sung, he immediately looked away. He looked at Lin Lang and nodded in agreement with a serious expression.
Hearing that, Lin Lang left Zheng Jinghao's side in satisfaction.
Now, in Yan Duoya's eyes, she and Shiyan could be considered "enemies meeting each other, eyes red". Therefore, when Yan Duoya appeared, she had to stay away from Shiyanyuan, to reduce the contact between them, so as to prevent Yan Duoya from becoming suspicious.
Seeing Soong Shiyan approaching, Xue Zhaowu waved at her with a smile and a smile, preparing to greet her. Soong Shiyan walked past him, ignoring him, and arrived in front of Zheng Jinghao.
"Young Master Zheng, happy birthday," Soong Shiyan greeted Zheng Jinghao with a smile. She then passed the delicate box to him and said, "It's a small favor."
Seeing that Soong Shiyan had completely ignored Xue Zhaowu, a smile appeared on Zheng Jinghao's face. He took the delicate box from Soong Shiyan's hands and said in an excited tone, "Jing Sung, I am already satisfied that you were able to attend my birthday party. "I didn't expect you to prepare a gift for me. I'm so flattered — can I open it now?"
Zheng Jinghao looked at Soong Shiyan expectantly. After which, he raised his eyebrows as he looked at Xue Zhaowu. Naturally, the meaning in his words was obvious.
"Of course, but I hope you don't mind, Young Master Zheng." Soong Shiyan said with a smile.
Zheng Jinghao opened the box expectantly. There was a pair of delicate cufflinks inside.
"This pair of cufflinks are so beautiful!" I really like it — Jing Sung, thank you for your trouble with my present! " Zheng Jinghao happily closed the box. Afterwards, he put the small box into his pocket, as if it was a treasure.
Seeing this, a trace of awkwardness could be seen on Soong Shiyan's face. She had been busy these past few days preparing new products, so she didn't have the mood to prepare a present for Zheng Jinghao. Tiankui had bought these pair of cufflinks on the way out.
"I'm glad that Young Master Zheng likes such a shabby gift." Soong Shiyan said with a smile.
"Where is it so shabby?" In my eyes, this is the best present I've received this year. Jing Sung, don't call me Young Master Zheng. If you don't mind, call me Jing Hao! " Zheng Jinghao said with a smile.
"That's not right, right?" Soong Shiyan said hesitantly. Although Zheng Jinghao was Lin Lang's cousin, they weren't that familiar with each other. Therefore, Soong Shiyan was a bit against it in her heart.
Zheng Jinghao noticed the hesitation in Soong Shiyan's eyes. He smiled and continued, "I'm a few years older than you, Jing Sung. If you don't mind, you can call me Big Bro."
Soong Shiyan thought for a moment before shouting, "Brother Zheng —"
Hearing that, the smile on Zheng Jinghao's face became brighter and brighter.
Seeing that he had been completely ignored by Soong Shiyan and Zheng Jinghao, Wu Tie coughed unhappily a few times. Only then did he attract Soong Shiyan's attention.
"Young Master Xue, are you sick?" Soong Shiyan tilted her head, looking at Xue Zhaowu as she asked with a smile that was not a smile.
"That's right, I might have caught a cold, and I'm feeling dizzy." Xue Zhaowu said weakly as he saw Soong Shiyan looking at him with a face full of 'concern'.
"Since Young Master Xue's cold is so severe, then Young Master Xue it's best if you go back earlier! If you pass out here, that's not good. " Soong Shiyan said with a fake smile.
Hearing that, Xue Zhaowu's face lit up. He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Soong Shiyan.
"More importantly, if you pass the cold virus on to us, that would be even worse." Soong Shiyan looked at Xue Zhaowu with disdain and said coldly.
With that, Soong Shiyan signaled Zheng Jinghao with her eyes and the two of them walked to the side.
Zheng Jinghao turned around and looked at Xue Zhaowu. He raised his eyebrows and smiled proudly. Little kid, you still want to fight me?
Xue Zhaowu looked at the back of Soong Shiyan and Zheng Jinghao, who were happily chatting with each other, gritted his teeth before shamelessly following behind them.
"Young Master Zheng, I'm a bit curious. How did you and Jing Sung get to know each other?" Xue Zhaowu squeezed to Zheng Jinghao's side and asked with a smile.
"Ask Jing Sung yourself!" Zheng Jinghao looked at Xue Zhaowu and said with raised eyebrows.
"You …" Xue Zhaowu was a bit angry, but he couldn't do anything about it, so he could only follow beside the two of them.
