Chapter 1241 - Low Profile

Silence filled the lounge.

The atmosphere was suffocating.

Feeling anxious, Lan Qianqian pulled Ou Ximing out of the lounge.

“I’m so anxious. Why isn’t Mr Bo here yet? Why is he here at this juncture?”

Ou Ximing closed the door with a serious expression.

“There’s still two hours. Let’s wait.”

“What are you waiting for? How can he be like this?! Doesn’t he know what day it is today? He doesn’t even have a schedule when he goes out? This is a wedding banquet! What can be more important than this?!”

Lan Xianxian was so angry that she wanted to cry. Her trembling voice traveled into the room.

Something flashed across Shen Fanxing’s eyes.

What could be more important than the wedding banquet?

“There’s nothing more important than you.”

She could still remember clearly how he had waited for her with an umbrella on the day she was discharged.

And his serious expression when he said that.

There was nothing more important than her…

Updates by

Therefore, he would definitely come, right?

He definitely would.

He had promised her to wait for him obediently…

Her grip on her skirt loosened and she gulped. The shape of her collarbone was unbelievably beautiful.

A hand gently covered hers. “It’s still early. Don’t worry.”

Xu Qingzhi stuffed the peeled orange into Shen Fanxing’s hands.

“Eat something to adjust your mood.”

Shen Fanxing looked down at the orange in her hand, amused.

“How much do you love this orange?” She even brought it out with her.

“I don’t eat much either. I just give you half every time I eat. We have to share the good stuff.”

Shen Fanxing pursed her lips and ate it.

She had thought that nearly ten hours would be the longest wait.

However, Shen Fanxing prayed that time would pass slower…

She wasn’t afraid of waiting as long as Bo Jinchuan had enough time to return.

“Bang—”

The door to the lounge was suddenly opened from the outside with a loud bang.

Shen Fanxing turned to see Lan Xianxian and Ou Ximing.

Lan Xianxian’s face was pale as she stood at the door, looking at Shen Fanxing helplessly.

“Sister Fanxing…” Could she be calling Shen Fanxing’s name? She blinked and tears streamed down her face.

“… What’s wrong?”

Lan Xianxian held her phone in her hand and weighed it, but she couldn’t take a step.

Ou Ximing walked out from behind and looked at Shen Fanxing with a complicated expression.

“CEO Shen…”

“Where’s Sister-in-law? F*ck! Sister-in-law!”

“Sister-in-law!”

“Sister-in-law…”

Before Ou Ximing could finish, another group of people appeared at the door.

Yin Ruijue, Shang Qiqi, Chi Yaoyao, Shang Qingmo and the rest of the men and women rushed in without any regard for etiquette.

Shen Fanxing was confused by the sudden commotion.

“What happened?”

Shang Qiqi ran to Shen Fanxing and hugged her. “Sister-in-law, what happened between you and Brother Bo?”

Shen Fanxing’s heart sank. “We’re… fine? What happened?”

Shang Qiqi took out her phone and handed it to Shen Fanxing.

“Then why did Brother Bo get engaged to another woman?”

Shen Fanxing’s heart skipped a beat.

She took a look at her phone and saw the headline on it. It read: “Rich and Low Profile! The CEO of the Bo Consortium and Hong Kong’s Yuan Corporation are engaged at Dihuang Hotel tonight.”

The content was an introduction of the Bo and Yuan families. The two families had huge backgrounds and deep financial resources. It also reported the close relationship between the two families over the decades.

There was only a photo of Yuan Sichun.

In short, they were childhood sweethearts, a match made in heaven!

Everyone looked at Shen Fanxing anxiously. However, after a long while, there was no change in her expression.

After reading it, she handed the phone to Shang Qiqi calmly.

“Sister-in-law, did you know about this beforehand?”

Shen Fanxing shook her head.

“How can that be? Who did this at the last minute?! Even a prank can’t be like this!”

Shang Qiqi was so angry that she wanted to smash her phone.

She was so angry.

“This isn’t a prank.”

Shen Fanxing walked to her seat and sat down. Looking at herself in the mirror, she smiled slowly.

With this, she finally understood why Old Master wanted to attend today’s engagement party after saying so much.

So he was attending Yuan Sichun and Bo Jinchuan’s engagement party.

Acting first and reporting later.

Bo Jinchuan had left early and had yet to return. It was probably what he wanted.

Even if Ah Chuan didn’t leave, he would definitely find a reason to make him leave.

Before dinner, he had said that he wanted to talk to her and Ah Chuan.

She didn’t know the details of the conversation, but there must be a reason for Ah Chuan to leave.

Yuan Sichun was destined not to have a fiancé at this engagement party.

She would become a joke for the time being, but with Old Master’s support, she could find a reason for Bo Jinchuan to be absent…

In that case, it would be a success.

Everyone knew that the CEO of the Bo Consortium was engaged to the eldest daughter of the Yuan Consortium.

As for what would happen in the future?

With Old Master’s threat and Yuan Sichun’s performance, she would take it one step at a time.

And she would become a complete joke.

Back then, he announced the engagement in such a high-profile manner. Now, the groom was absent.

She would help Yuan Sichun block the news of her fiancé’s absence. Even if she really interacted with Ah Chuan in the future, Yuan Sichun would definitely force her to be the third party.

The mistress who had stolen her fiancé and seduced her had caused her reputation to plummet again. It would even implicate Stars International and her brand of perfume.

She didn’t know if Yuan Sichun was thinking too much, but she had a mother who seemed to have some tricks up her sleeve. With their brains, it was impossible for them not to think of this.

Otherwise, after enduring so much, Yuan Sichun wouldn’t be content with her injuries. How could she not take the opportunity to make her suffer?

The old man actually agreed.

But did he have to resort to such despicable means?

“If it’s not a prank, then… could it be true? Then who is your engagement today?”

“It’s Ah Chuan.”

“…”

“…”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

What was going on now?

Yuan Muchun hid at the back, not daring to show her face.

Shen Fanxing saw her and asked, “Mu Chun, An Xi, is your handkerchief done?”

Yuan Muchun and Bo Anxi couldn’t help but feel nervous.

“You still have the mood to mention embroidery at a time like this?” Bo Anxi pouted and muttered.

Shen Fanxing took a deep breath and scanned the crowd. “It’s about time. I should change.”

Yin Ruijue paused and said, “No, no, you’re… going out?”

Shen Fanxing chuckled and said, “Today is my engagement party. If I don’t appear, what will happen to the people outside?”

Only then did everyone realize that Shen Fanxing was the one who announced the engagement.

Her fiancé had yet to appear. If she didn’t appear as the female lead, how chaotic would the engagement party be?
