I ran away the day before I married my rival

Chapter 54 Engagement Banquet

The engagement banquet was supposed to start at ten o'clock in the morning, but because of a sudden accident, the guests had almost arrived, so the time had to be postponed, and it was already dusk when Chi Ruochu finished packing.

Cheng Dong is worthy of being an old man in the mall. He and Mrs. Cheng walked among the guests, comforting their emotions, and invited some well-connected high-ranking people to speak on the stage. Time dragged on.

In the process of driving there, Xu Youyi acted as a makeup artist and repaired the makeup that had been lost on Chi Ruochu's face, but the dress on his body was a little damaged.

When they arrived at the scene, Cheng Peichen brought Chi Ruochu into a room, and when he came out, Chi Ruochu changed into a bright red dress.

As soon as the two appeared, they attracted everyone's attention, and the big stone in Xu Youyi's heart fell down.

Chi Ruochu dealt with the guests with a polite and decent smile, and with the help of Director Fu, he met many business partners of the Fu family.

Cheng Peichen held her hand. Although Chi Ruochu was smiling, he could feel the resentment and sadness in her heart.

Obviously he should lose his temper and cry when he is wronged, but he still has to face everyone with a smile, so as not to let others see his embarrassing side.

When drinking the wine toasted by others, Chi Ruochu felt something was wrong.

The taste of the wine does not seem to be ordinary red wine, more like sour plum soup.

Chi Ruochu looked at Cheng Peichen suspiciously, Cheng Peichen pushed a strand of hair on her chest behind her ears, and whispered in a voice that could be heard by both of them: "You can't drink for these two days, be good, be obedient."

After speaking, he pinched Chi Ruochu's face in front of everyone. Chi Ruochu was stunned for a moment, then turned his face and continued to deal with other people.

She is really not in the mood to joke now, so she can only hold Cheng Peichen's hand tightly.

This engagement banquet was not as happy as expected. For Chi Ruochu, it felt more like a business dinner.

Cheng Dong and Mrs. Cheng walked among the guests, the smiles on their faces were half sincere and half false, but they were very calculating.

All the people here are businessmen, and they are clear about the essence of this marriage. It is just a commercial marriage, a tool for profit.

Chi Ruochu was in the midst of such hypocrisy, bored in his heart, and suddenly felt that such a life was meaningless.

In the noise and silence around, Fu Lingshuo actually brought Chi Linlin to the scene.

Chen Xiangheng immediately changed his face, and put the wine glass in his hand heavily on the seat. The noise made other people dare not come forward to greet them.

Everyone knew that Fu Lingshuo was once engaged to Chi Ruochu, and Chi Linlin was the daughter of Chi Ruochu's cheating mistress, but the two got together and were torn apart by Chi Ruochu on his birthday.

Some time ago, Chi Linlin got together with Wang Lei, who is a flamboyant member of the Wang family, and the relationship between Wang, Liu and Fu was bad. This is the case, and Fu Lingshuo actually let Chi Linlin stay by his side. Eye-popping.

Some guests commented: "Is this Fu Lingshuo out of his mind? Chi Linlin is with someone else and she is still with her."

"Maybe it's good for others, but Mr. Fu should be the one who hurts the most. His only son has grown up like this. I don't know what the future of the Fu family will be."

"Fu Dongke is smart. Knowing that his son is not good, he picked a good daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, his son is not up to date. Pearls don't want fish eyes. Who can blame this?"

Fu Lingshuo's ears were filled with chattering discussions, his face turned blue and pale, and he unnaturally took Chi Linlin's hand off his arm.

"Brother Fu."

Chi Linlin's voice was full of grievances, and she couldn't believe it. Under such circumstances, he let go of his hand. Isn't this letting others poke her back?

Liu Jia made a disdainful voice when she saw it. A woman like Chi Linlin clings to a man like a dodder. Once a man is useless, she will also fall into the quagmire.

Knowing that Fu Lingshuo is her sister's fiancé, she deliberately flirts with her. Knowing that Wang Lei has a family, she still joins her.

Xu Youyi saw that these two people were not pleasing to the eye, so she walked forward with a wine glass, "Isn't this Young Master Fu? It's the ex-fiancée who has to come over to give blessings in person when she gets married, not everyone has such a magnanimity."

There were murmurs of sneering all around.

"Fu Shao, I have to offer you a toast. Let us wish Xiao Chu and Cheng Er Shao a happy marriage for a hundred years."

"Let me help Brother Fu drink." Chi Linlin snatched the glass from Fu Lingshuo's hand.

Xu Youyi's complexion changed instantly, "Young Master Fu, are you disrespecting me and letting someone else do a glass of wine for you?"

"Sister Xu, that's not the case. Brother Fu doesn't know how to drink."

"Have you been asked to speak? What is your capacity to help Shao Fu drink this glass of wine?" Xu Youyi felt disgusted just by looking at Chi Linlin, a posturing person like Chi Linlin, who yelled at Brother Fu one by one. out daughter.

Liu Jia got up and walked to Xu Youyi's side, "Xu Daxingxing, now who doesn't know that Fu Shao didn't even start a business because of him, even if he was beaten by Fu Dong and lay on the bed for a week, he didn't want to give up. Isn't this the legend? true love?"

Xu Youyi let out a chuckle, and patted her mouth lightly, "Look at me, I'm so ignorant, it's not worth it. When will Fu Shao and Chi Linlin get engaged? Don't forget to send me an invitation card when the time comes, so that I can enjoy it." Happy."

Xu Youyi and Liu Jia sang together, making Fu Lingshuo and Chi Linlin unable to get off the stage like clowns.

Fu Lingshuo clenched his fists white, staring straight at Chi Ruochu, "Xiao Chu, do you have to let them humiliate me like this?"

Everyone's attention was shifted to Chi Ruochu. No matter how Fu Shao looked like this, he still had an unforgettable love for Chi Ruochu.

Cheng Dong and Mrs. Cheng also looked a little ugly.

Chi Ruochu took a deep breath, suppressed the boredom in his heart, and said lightly: "Young Master Fu, Xiao Chu shouldn't be what you call me, and what Youyi and Jiajia are telling is the truth, don't you just put the people around you When a woman is a younger sister, do you always protect her?"

Those present who don't know the special status of "god sister" and "god daughter", Chi Linlin was immediately put in an awkward position.

Xu Youyi took the wine glass from Chi Linlin's hand and stuffed it into Fu Lingshuo's hand, "Young Master Fu, I respect you."

In front of everyone, Fu Lingshuo had no choice but to drink the glass of wine. Then, Fu Lingshuo and Chi Linlin were arranged.

When Chi Ruochu went to the bathroom, Xu Youyi and Liu Jia followed.

"Xiao Chu, you are too tired, take a rest before going out."
