CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-THREE

Charlotte felt very uncomfortable seeing the old man whom her father wanted to marry her off to after her husband was declared dead. She gave Marco a scornful look, but the old man didn’t bother about her disdainful look.

It didn’t take long for Hudderson to notice how unsettled and pissed off his wife was. Gently, he placed his hand on her leg and turned to her with a smile.

A few seconds later, he returned his gaze to the Minister of Finance who had alre

    She had never imagined that her aunt had invited her over just to tell her these things—that her boyfriend was unsuitable and that she should be introduced to a new man!This was not just absurd; it was preposterous!Not to mention that Bai Xiaosheng wasn’t her boyfriend, but even if he were, did they really intend to break them up?“What are you talking about?!” Lin Weiwei furrowed her brows and stared at Lin Lu, asking.Lin Lu spoke very clearly, and Lin Weiwei heard her clearly as well, but she still couldn’t believe that her aunt, the epitome of kindness and grace, whom she had always looked up to as a role model, would ever say such things.“Child, child!Don’t get so agitated!” Lin Lu hurriedly said, “I know that you might not be able to accept this at once!But your aunt is absolutely doing this for your own good!”“Yes, you with a poor boy, the rest of your life is going to be fraught with hardships!We can’t just watch you jump into a pit of fire,” Meng Haishan chimed in urge

    However, Lin Weiwei always felt like her smile was somewhat unnatural.But as Lin Lu got closer, the unnaturalness on her face had already disappeared.“Auntie,” Lin Weiwei greeted with a smile.She didn’t pay much mind to the subtle changes in Lin Lu’s facial expressions, assuming it was still due to the friction between her and Meng Bing.“Mrs.Lin,” Bai Xiaosheng and Song Jiajia greeted Lin Lu in turn, as she nodded with a smile on her face.“Weiwei, I have something to tell you, could you come with me for a moment?” Lin Lu said.Lin Weiwei was taken aback and laughed, “What’s the matter, Auntie, you’re being so secretive.Can’t you just say it here?”“A little private talk,” Lin Lu said with a light smile.That sentence seemed to be directed more at Bai Xiaosheng and Song Jiajia.Seeing Bai looking over, Lin Lu smiled at him, “Bai, this is a gathering; you don’t need to stick to Weiwei’s side all the time, you can be more relaxed.The young people here, regardless of their family

    Bai Xiaosheng could tell that Lin Weiwei was truly happy to see her—genuinely overjoyed.The happiness radiated from within, sprouting from the depths of her heart.It seems that this was a real friend of hers, Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.The two girls huddled together, chatting excitedly.“I really didn’t expect you to come, Song Jiajia!”“I was hoping to see you here, that’s why I came!”“We haven’t seen each other for three years, have we?”“To be exact, three years and one month!I went abroad to study and then had an internship after coming back.I just returned to Zhongjing a while ago!”“You’re not leaving this time, right?”“Not leaving.I’m going to develop my career here in Zhongjing!”The two close friends were chatting joyfully, with Bai Xiaosheng standing beside them with a smile, quietly watching them.He saw in them a reflection of himself and Zheng Pangzi.This world, it’s not just filled with ugliness, it also has beauty.Not just the dark side of family relatio

    A man in his thirties with an average build, looking four parts lazy and six parts slick, was being surrounded by a crowd.He had two tall and burly servants following him, holding gifts in their arms.This young man was Yin Donglei.“Donglei, you’re here,” Meng Haishan greeted with a beaming smile, walking up to him.The second young master of the Yin Family, that was certainly something to boast about.“Oh my, Uncle Meng, why are you coming out to meet someone like me?I’m truly overwhelmed by your kindness!” Yin Donglei said with a grin, quickening his pace with an air of modesty.Yin Donglei had been to the Meng Family residence before and naturally recognized Meng Haishan.Speaking of the two sons of the Yin Family, each had his own personality.The elder, Yin Dongfeng, was arrogant and unruly.The younger, Yin Donglei, was slick and sweet-talking, a good conversationalist, which was very much to Meng Haishan’s liking.“Only you could charm Uncle Meng like this,” laughed Meng Hai

    No way, it looks pretty real to me!”“Exactly, can counterfeits even reach this level nowadays?”“If it’s really a fake, I’d like to buy one too…”“But giving a fake gift to an elder, that’s just too rude!”…Around Meng Haishan, voices of shock rose continuously; no one could believe it.Meng Haishan’s expression immediately darkened, a look of “I knew it” on his face.He snapped the watch box shut with a “snap” and tossed it onto the table nearby.“This isn’t fake!”Lin Weiwei regained her senses from the astonishment and hurriedly defended herself.“Really, can you afford it?You, a little waitress who serves tea and runs errands at Zhongjing Media—frankly speaking, what’s the difference between you and a maid!” Meng Bing spat out the words, not giving her any face at all.She hated Lin Weiwei; she had hated her since they were children!This country bumpkin lived in their house, ate their food, was obedient and did well in studies.Whether at school or at home, the phrase Meng Bin

    The surrounding flattery and envy filled him with immense satisfaction.Looking up, Meng Haishan saw Lin Weiwei.Following behind Lin Weiwei was a young man carrying something, who looked quite handsome.“Uncle-in-law, happy birthday!” Lin Weiwei said with a brimming smile as she walked over.“You’re here, Weiwei.” Meng Haishan straightened his back without getting up and called out.People around looked over, their eyes brightening.What a perfect golden boy and jade girl!“Uncle-in-law, hello, I’m Weiwei’s boyfriend, my name is Bai Xiaosheng.” Bai Xiaosheng introduced himself with a smile.Meng Haishan nodded slightly and glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, “Good.”Those surrounding Meng Haishan began to whisper among themselves.“That must be Mr.Meng’s niece, she’s really pretty, looks about the same age as Meng Bing!”“She’s not only beautiful but also well-mannered.You can tell she comes from a good family, well-educated indeed!”“That young man looks quite decent as well, handsome and p
