“Mr. Ling, you’re so lucky. I heard that your oldest daughter has had some good news recently?”
After Ling Jian’s diplomatic speech, someone said something below, which immediately attracted the agreement of the surrounding people.
“Yes, I wonder which family is Mr. Ling’s son-in-law from?”
Ling Jian looked embarrassed. Just as he was about to say a few words to brush them off, Ling Han had already held Pei Jing’s hand and walked up to the stage with a composed expression.
Pei Jing was wearing a suit, while Ling Han was wearing a white dress today. The two of them looked very compatible when they stood together.
“Hello, everyone. I’m Ling Han. This is Pei Jing, my boyfriend.”
Ling Jian stood at the side and was completely ignored. He looked a little awkward as he held the microphone.
“Boyfriend? But didn’t you just agree to this man’s proposal a few days ago, Miss Ling?”
Ling Jian loved his reputation and held such a grand cocktail party. Naturally, many reporters were invited to the party.
Ling Han smiled and said, “We haven’t held an official engagement party yet. Strictly speaking, we can’t be considered fiancés. But I heard that Father is preparing one for us recently, so we will definitely invite everyone to attend when it’s time.”
“I…”
It would cost a lot to hold an engagement party and invite so many people. Ling Jian frowned and was ready to refuse it, but the people below were already clapping and cheering.
“Mr. Ling dotes on his daughter. The engagement party will definitely be several times more luxurious than today.”
Ling Han smiled and turned to look at Ling Jian. In front of the camera, he could only bear the pain and nod. He said, “Yes, we are planning the engagement party at the moment.”
“Father dotes on me the most. He even specially prepared a valuable dowry for me. I heard that several of the family’s subsidiary companies are included. There are also some funds, stocks, and real estate.”
Ling Jian’s brows twitched as he listened to Ling Han’s words. “Yes, yes, yes. There’s no need to tell others about such family matters,” Ling Jian anxiously interrupted her without waiting for her to finish her words.

“Oh? Father has given me so much. Is there anything that you can’t tell others?”
Ling Han was extremely close to Ling Jian. After asking, she said in a soft voice that only the two of them could hear, “Don’t forget those photos.”
Thinking of his weakness, Ling Jian could only grit his teeth and admit it. “I just don’t want to publicize it. I should be doing all these.”
“I’ve received Father’s good intentions. I’ll definitely take good care of the assets and show you that I’m happy.”
Ling Han finally nodded in satisfaction.
The party had not ended yet. However, having achieved her goal, Ling Han pulled Pei Jing and quietly left the party when no one was looking.
Pei Jing was in a good mood after getting into the car.
As he started the car, he asked her, “Miss, you’re amazing. You got a dowry with just a few words. But… What kind of dowry do you want?”
“What kind of dowry? I’ve already said that the wedding is just a pretense. Oh right, I’ll have to trouble you to put on a show with me at the engagement party.”
Pei Jing looked straight ahead as a hint of gloominess flashed across his eyes. “I’ll be looking forward to this show then,” he said.
At the cocktail party, Wang Lian dragged Ling Jian to the side. Her tone was full of resentment as she said, “How could you agree to give her the dowry in front of so many people? If you don’t give it away, you’ll be found out.”
Ling Jian’s eyes were also full of resentment. He replied, “She’s holding onto my weakness.”

“What do you mean?” Wang Lian suddenly became nervous.
“Don’t worry about it. In short, I will make that girl disappear from this world tonight,” Ling Jian gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He didn’t want to do things too ruthlessly. She could have continued to act the part of a fool, but now she tried to pretend to be smart with him.
As they drove home, Ling Han, who put on a big show tonight, leaned against the window and closed her eyes slightly to rest.
The car drove to a remote part of the road, and a van suddenly appeared in front of their car, blocking the road they were about to drive past.
