Chapter 283 - The Celebration (1)

"Yang Xinyu, I hope you remember that the party that I have hosted for Wu Lina is on the coming Sunday," yelled mayor as soon as Yang Xinyu picked his call.

"Yes father."

"Then have you even written down the list of guests that you want me to call on your behalf?" he asked becoming angrier.

"Father, I don't have the time! Why don't you tell Wu Lina?" he said and tossed the phone to Wu Lina while going back to keeping his hands on her belly and feeling his kids movements.

"Yang Xinyu, you-!"

"Good evening father," said Wu Lina. She had become used to the drama between the father and the son.

"Wu Lina, that brat is just not behaving these days," the mayor was fuming. "Child, can you prepare the guest list? I don't know who all to call on behalf of Yang Xinyu."

"I will do that father and send the list by the evening."

"Thank you child. I knew I can count on you," he disconnected the call thinking daughters are way better than sons. But how come Yang Fangxu became like that…

Wu Lina immediately prepared a list of people asking Yang Xinyu while she wrote down their names. In an hour the list was dispatched to his via email.

Yang Fangxu's troubles had increased manifold when the debtors demanded that she pay them immediately or they would pull her to the court. She had to sell considerable part of her company assets to meet the loans. But it was nowhere near to even fulfilling half of what she had borrowed. She knew that if she would ask her father, he could easily solve her problem. But she had already told him that she would never need his money and had sold all her shares to the man who had offered her such a high price. She started regretting her decision and thought of visiting him. While she was just thinking about it, she received a text from her father to her surprise,

"Please join us for blessing dear Wu Lina. She has made us proud and happy with her first successful venture with her movie. We look forward to your confirmation."

Yang Fangxu had a bitter taste in her mouth when she read it. She was so angry that she threw the phone on the floor far away from her. She had never expected that an inexperienced Wu Lina who had no standing in the film industry would go so far. She had tried hard to sabotage her plans but things failed. Yang Fangxu started crying bitterly. How could this happen to her? She had the best of the stars and people behind the scenes.

After an hour of crying and brooding, she texted him back,

"Thank you father. I will join."

She realized that this would be an excellent opportunity to ask her father for money to pay her debtors. She asked her mother to be ready for the Sunday party.

On Sunday the mayor had asked his son and daughter-in-law to come at his official residence at least two hours before the party, which would start at 8pm, but it was already 7pm and both of them hadn't come. He called Yang Xinyu. "Xinyu! Where are you? Can't you keep one promise that you will be here by 6pm?" he yelled at him as soon as he picked the phone.

"Father, it's not my fault. It is Wu Lina's fault," he said and handed the phone to Wu Lina.

"Father, Yang Xinyu is making unreasonable demands," she said looking at her husband annoyingly who was demanding another round of s.e.x. He was getting impatient by the minute as he started squeezing her b.r.e.a.s.ts.

"What demands child?" asked the mayor.

"Ask him father," she said and gave the phone to Yang Xinyu.

"Yes father?"

"Yang Xinyu, I order you to come here as soon as possible or I will send a team of twenty men to lift you and get you here. What kind of demands are you making?" he shouted so loudly on the phone that Wu Lina could listen.

She shouted, "Father-" and before she could say another word, Yang Xinyu had pressed her mouth with his hands and ended the call.

He went south in between her t.h.i.g.hs and started s.u.c.k.i.n.g.

"Xini, we need to reach there before everyone else does," cried Wu Lina.

"We will," he said and continued.

They reached at 8pm much to the mayor's annoyance. The mayor was actually standing on the door waiting for the two of them. As soon as he saw his son, he pulled his ear with one hand and dragged him inside. "Can you be a little more responsible?"

Thankfully none of the guests were there except his youngest son and his mother to see this rare outburst. All of them started laughing but the mayor said, "Shut up! All of you!" Then he turned to his younger son and said, "Never ever be late for the party after you have married, especially if I have hosted them. See what I am doing to your elder brother."

Yang Láichén didn't know where to look. He was so confused as to what his father just said, which was the usual case.

Just as the mayor left Yang Xinyu, the first guest of the evening arrived.
