Chapter 122: Chen celebration banquet: Attack on Assistant Xin (1)

Nana looked like a diva in that royal blue cocktail dress.

“She is so beautiful…”, a guest murmured.

“Any mother would want her to be her daughter-in-law.”

“She looks so poised. No wonder Madam Chen liked her for his son. Even I would have asked her hand for marriage.”

“Can you imagine their children? Gosh, they will look so beautiful!”

“Tang Suyin is nothing in front of her.”

“No kidding. Mr. and Mrs. Chen must be thanking their lucky stars that Chen Jianyu and Tang Suyin’s relationship didn’t work out.”

“God knows how much more of a b*tch she would have become had it been her tonight instead of Nana.”

Amongst the murmurs, Suyin heard every insult about her standing at the corner.

She was hatefully looking at Nana cursing every bad word at her.

Enjoy your last, happy moments. Tomorrow your photo wouldn’t be printed as Jianyu’s fiance but as a sl*t having sex with numerous men.

The whole way from the start till Nana reached on the stage, Jinhai’s eyes were only focused on her hand in Jianyu’s arms. He looked indifferent on the surface but only he knew how jealous he felt seeing her beside another man.

He raised his head and looked straight at her.

Nana felt a strong gaze. She looked down and saw Jinhai staring right back at her. Her heart shook meeting his unwavering gaze.

His eyes expressed everything as if asking her, ‘Are you happy’?

She felt she sensed his question. Even if there were no words exchanged, she understood him.

She faintly smiled averting his gaze.

He smiled as if he got his answer.

Assistant Xin finally reached the hotel.

Damn it there was so traffic! I can’t waste any more time.

He quickly went inside and saw the Chen family trio and Nana on the podium. Chen Liling was in the middle of her announcement.

From her place, Huian saw Xin entering in a hurry.

She frowned. Why is he in such a rush?

Their eyes met and he coldly looked at her.

Why is he looking at me with such resentment? Wh-, then something struck her.

Did he get any clue regarding what happened in the past? Wasn’t he investigating with Jinhai? I will have to find out!

She whispered to Grandma Liu, “Grandma, I think Assistant Xin has figured out something.”

Her eyes widened. “What!?”, she could hardly contain her voice from going out loud.

“Yes. I have to go and stop him.”

She nodded hurriedly. “Yes, yes! Go now.”

Huian smiled and said to Mother Liu, “I’ll be back in just a minute.”

“Sure, dear.”, she said.

“Jinhai, I-“

“You don’t need to inform me. I’m not interested.”, he said coldly.

She bit her lips.

“Jinhai!”, Mother Liu scolded him in a hushed tone.

Huian quickly got up and left.

Mother Liu sighed.

Assistant Xin narrowed his eyes seeing Huian coming towards him.

Huian smiled. “Xin. Why are you in such a rush?”

Xin smiled back, “And why did Lady Liu take the trouble to come all the way here and ask a mere assistant herself?”

She stiffened. He has never used that tone while talking to me. He definitely knows something.

“What are you saying? You are Jinhai’s most trusted assistant. You are like family.”

“I appreciate it, Lady Liu. But now if you’ll excuse me I have to talk to Sir.”

She pursed her lips. “There is such an important banquet going on. You shouldn’t disturb him with work.”

Of course, you would want that, he thought.

“Well, I will leave that to Sir’s judgment.”

“You will unnecessarily make him angry for disturbing him. What if you get fired?”

“What if I get awarded?”, he countered back.

Her mouth twitched.

“I don’t wish to say this but you should watch your tone. I’m Lady Liu and you must listen to my orders.”

Xin smiled. “My first and foremost loyalty lies with sir Liu Jinhai. If the time comes, then I can even defy his father, sir Liu Hai’s orders.”

She clenched her fingers into a fist.

“And I have not got any explicit orders from Sir that I’m obliged to listen to you.”

How dare he say that!? Why is there a need to explicitly state it?

Damn it, he is not budging.

“Um, actually I also want to talk something important to you. Can we go somewhere private?”

He said nothing.

“It won’t take much time.”, she urged.

Let’s see what she has got to say.

“Okay.”

She was relieved. “Let’s go up in my room.”

On the stage, Chen Liling continued, “I’m very proud to introduce you all to my future daughter-in-law, Nana.”

The reporters started with their questions, “Miss Nana, how do you feel about this? From a small restaurant owner, you will now be the next Lady Chen.”

He insinuated how easily she made her way in such a giant family.

Chen Liling narrowed her eyes.

Jianyu was about to interrupt but Nana said, “Yes, I’m a small restaurant owner. But I have always said this to my brothers. I will say it again. I feel pride in my work. That smalI restaurant is the result of my sweat and tears. I believe that if one sincerely works hard without ever giving up, then one day they are bound to get their recognition they deserve.”

They got silent.

“It’s tough to become independent at the age of twenty, not only for yourself but also for your family, and I’m glad that I could pull myself through all those hardships. Just like how I became an owner, I will give my all to become the daughter-in-law that Uncle and Aunt Chen will be proud of.”
