In the end, Lin Chaoyu still changed into a red strapless evening gown. Then, the two of them got into the car and arrived at the entrance of the hotel. The fountain in front of the lobby also showed how grand and magnificent it was inside. Tang Pengze pushed open the car door. He was wearing a well-tailored suit, which added a hint of nobility to his cold facial features. His every movement was filled with grace.
Lin Chaoyu held onto his arm. The woman’s skin was fair to begin with, and under the contrast of the red dress, her skin was as fair as snow. Her slender neck was adorned with a pearl necklace, and her shoulders and collarbones perfectly outlined the smooth lines. As the red dress swayed, it revealed Lin Chaoyu’s slender ankles, giving off a hint of sexiness. Standing beside Tang Pengze, she didn’t seem to be suppressed by his aura at all.
The arrival of the two also caused quite a commotion. The entire banquet hall was filled with elites of the upper-class society, and there was no lack of distinguished political figures among them. Suddenly, Tang Pengze nodded slightly and whispered into Lin Chaoyu’s ear, “I’ll go over there for a while. Be good and wait for me here. Don’t run around.”
His masculine breath landed on Lin Chaoyu’s neck and it tickled her, causing her face to redden again. Looking at the shy woman beside him, Tang Pengze suppressed the restlessness in his body and instructed the bodyguards beside him to take care of Lin Chaoyu before turning around and walking towards the center of the banquet hall.
Lin Chaoyu stood at the same spot. The blush on her face had yet to fade when a woman wearing a pure white off-shoulder dress walked over in high heels. Her beautiful face was covered in exquisite makeup. Her sharp chin was slightly raised, revealing her slender and long neck. Her every movement exuded the elegance of a socialite. However, her skin was a little sickly pale, and her eyes were filled with mist, making one feel pity for her.
“You are Lin Chaoyu, right?” The sickly beauty in front of her suddenly spoke to her and her voice was gentle and sweet. Lin Chaoyu couldn’t help but look at her in confusion. She was sure that she didn’t know this woman, and she didn’t know how she knew her. “My name is Lu Xi, Tang Pengze’s fiancée.” The sickly beauty in front of her introduced herself generously.

Lin Chaoyu was suddenly stunned. Lu Xi’s voice continued to ring in her ears. “It’s been hard on you during this period of time. It’s all because of my health. Ah Ze also felt sorry for me, so he had no choice but to look for you…” After saying that, her fair face blushed.
When she heard this, it was like a bolt from the blue. Lin Chaoyu’s face turned pale. So… this was the reason. Consolidating the inheritance rights? It was all a lie! Perhaps it was because she had lost her virginity to Tang Pengze. Lin Chaoyu had an ambivalent feeling for him. Now, Lu Xi’s words had completely shattered her hopes. Tears gradually filled Lin Chaoyu’s eyes. Grief swept over her, and she looked pitiful.
Seeing Lin Chaoyu’s reaction, a hint of disdain appeared in the depths of Lu Xi’s eyes. “Ah Ze is really too outrageous. He was afraid that I would be tired and kept thinking about my health. He didn’t even want me to accompany him out of the house for this banquet.” Lu Xi smiled and said that before turning to leave. It was as if she couldn’t be bothered to say another word to Lin Chaoyu.
Just then, the women came forward to ask about her well-being. Lu Xi nodded slightly, and her perfect smile exuded the aura of a big shot. Then, she walked towards Tang Pengze. Tang Pengze was currently conversing with a group of business elites. He looked up and saw her walking over. A trace of gentleness flashed across his eyes, and he whispered something.
Lin Chaoyu raised her teary eyes and looked at the two of them standing together like a perfect match. Her mood instantly plummeted..
