Chapter 928: He Kissed the Back of Her Hands Under the Bright Lights
But she was twice-married. How was she worthy?
Old Master Fu, Madam Fu and Fu Rongrong’s expressions all changed at once. They could tell at one sight that Old Madam was someone extraordinary and that her status here was high. When had Lin Shiyu gained such good connections?
“Old Madam, I’m not sure who you are but you mustn’t be tricked by Lin Shiyu. She actuallyー” Old Master Fu was about to say something nasty.
“Dad, stop it!” Madam Fu tugged harshly on Old Master Fu. Deep in her heart, she still really liked and wanted to protect Lin Shiyu.
But Old Master Fu flung Madam Fu aside and said loudly, “Lin Shiyu is actually a promiscuous woman!”
“You shut up!” Old Madam berated him.
The entire hall fell silent, at the atmosphere was as cold as ice. There was a pin-drop silence.
Old Madam gave Old Master Fu a cold glare.
Seeing her imposing demeanor, Old Master Fu already had a terrible expression on his face. “Ha. You want to kick me out? You think you’re the Master of Castle Guding?”
Sikong scoffed coldly. “Old man, you have pretty good eyes. This is the Old Madam of Castle Guding!”
What?
What?!
Old Master Fu, Madam Fu and Fu Rongrong all gasped. The person in front of them was the Old Madam of Castle Guding?
Impossible. How could this be?
Lin Shiyu’s long lashes quivered. She never would have expected her to be... the Old Madam of Castle Guding.
“Old Madam, you...”
This Old Madam had tricked her into coming to Mexico. She had been lied to so pathetically.
Old Madam held Lin Shiyu’s soft hands tightly and smile, hoping to appease her. “Little Shiyu, Grandma didn’t lie to you on purpose. If I hadn’t lied, what would have become of my grandson, Ah Sen?”
Ah Sen?
The ladies present looked on with anger. How they envied her!
“Wonderful!” Old Madam laughed. “I now announce the official start of the party. Later on, everyone will be given a number. If your number is the same as my Ah Sen, he will have the first dance with you. Then you will become the Young Madam of the Guding Family!”
...
“Little Shiyu, this is your number.” Madam Sikong stuffed a number into Lin Shiyu’s arms.
<ol start=”18′′>
She got number 18.
“Little Shi’shi, keep this number well. Ah Sen is number 18 as well. When the time comes, he will invite you to have a dance with him.” Madam Sikong blinked meaningfully at her.
Lin Shiyu raised her head and looked at Fu Qinglun. A crowd of businessmen circled around Fu Qinglun and he was listening attentively to what they were saying. They all admired his dignified appearance and charisma.
Today, his hair was slicked back, revealing his handsome and angled side profile. He had always been handsome, but today his looks were good enough to make someone’s heart pound.
As though he had noticed her gaze, Fu Qinglun looked sideways at her. Their gaze met, her eyes meeting with his gentle black eyes.
“Auntie, let me use the washroom for a while.” Lin Shiyu turned headed towards the washroom.
Seeing her vanish silently from his sight, Fu Qinglun didn’t retract his gaze. At this moment, one of the businessmen said with a laugh, “Young Master, no wonder you looked down on those rich ladies. Miss Lin is extremely beautiful. You two look like a match made in heaven.”
Fu Qinglun stuck one hand into his pocket, the other bringing the glass of red wine to his thin lips as he took a sip. The expensive fragrant wine exploded with flavors in his mouth. He lifted his brows slowly, his smile charming and loving.
No matter how many women there were, he would choose only her.
In his eyes, she was the best.
She was so beautiful today.
He spotted her immediately when he was on the stairs. Like how he had taken his first look at her at the Lin Family Home all those years back, and from then on, his heart only moved for her.
This time, he would not let her get away.
...
In the bathroom.
Lin Shiyu stood at the sink, patting cold water onto her beautiful face. She looked at her number silently, the 18 seemed to stare back at her.
