My Beautiful Love

Ever since meeting Su Ling again, Wan Jia knew that she was not someone who would do such unreasonable things as bully her foster sister without reason. That slap must have had a good reason.

Su Qianqian felt enraged. Had this Su Ling already buttered up to Madam Lu and got on her good side? She couldn't let this happen. She had to ruin her image. How could Lu Shaoting like this kind of woman? He should have looked at her instead. Wasn't she better than Su Ling in every aspect? If she couldn't get into a rich family like the Lu family, then neither should Su Ling.

"I'm telling the truth." She bit her lip and cried. "You don't know but my sister is so selfish and unreasonable. When we were younger, she was so jealous of me that one day she pushed me into the swimming pool. Luckily I knew how to swim. If not then…"

Wan Jia lost her patience. What kind of drama was this little woman trying to audition for? Her acting skills were terrible. Since when did she and Su Ling grow up together? "Do you prefer leaving on your own, or do you need some assistance?"

When Su Qianqian heard Wan Jia's increasingly angry tone, she decided to retreat temporarily. "I…I'll leave on my own."

Wan Jia wasn't going to let her off so easily, however. "Go and wait for a letter from the Lu family's lawyers. I am suing you for libel. Also, pass a message to your father. We are not unaware of the fact that he has been using the name of the Lu family to boost his own business. All of you, wait for letters from the family's lawyers."

She turned and looked at the sales ladies who were freezing from her sudden outburst. "What are you waiting for?"

They rushed to her. "Pardon us for our incompetence, madam. What kind of dress would you like to try on?"

Wan Jia glared at the salesgirl who was trying to lead her to take a seat. "Save it. Take a good look at her." she was pointing towards Su Ling.

"Do you know who she is?"

The sales ladies felt their world crumbling down. Su Ling was their lady boss' assistant! In fact, rumor had it that they were good friends as well.

"She is my sister-in-law, Lu Shaoting's wife." Wan Jia declared.

Everyone was stunned, including Su Ling. She was still breathing in the fact that Wan Jia was helping her deal with that Qianqian girl and the Su family.

Wan Jia didn't need to say much. After those words, they knew that they were definitely going to be punished for speaking ill of Second young master's wife. In actual truth, they all disliked Su Ling for being fancied by Lu Shaoting. They were just venting their anger earlier. Who would have thought that Wan Jia would come to her rescue?

"Where is the manager?" Wan Jia asked sharply.

The manager had gone to the main store to restock. Coincidentally, he arrived just as Wan Jia asked about him.

"Fire everyone, including yourself."

Although they were shocked and wanted to retaliate, this was Wan Jia. They couldn't dare to.

Wan Jia finally turned to Su Ling, whose fists had finally relaxed. "How can you let a little girl and a few sales assistants bully you? Don't you know that you are the second madam? I'm disappointed."

Su Ling was disappointed in herself too. She would have fought back. It was just that earlier, Su Qianqian had used her weakest points to attack her. She was so furious that if she retaliated, it wouldn't be just a slap.

"Whatever. Let's cheer you up. You are looking for something to wear?"

Su Ling was still in a bad mood but she responded. "Shaoting asked me out tonight. I was just finding something nice to wear."

"What a coincidence. Aotian asked me out too. Let's go to the main store."

…

After an hour, both women had found dresses they were satisfied with. Their mood was also much better. Wan Jia had already informed Lu Aotian that she fired everyone and interviews would be held the next day to employ new personnel.

While looking for jewelry to go with their dresses, Su Ling stared at the rings section. All the rings were valuable and incredibly beautiful.

Wan Jia noticed her longing look as she looked at them. She knew that the question she really wanted to ask was sensitive, so she didn't ask.

"Does Shaoting actually want to marry me?" she unexpectedly asked.

"Aren't you asking the obvious? He loves you more than his own life. How can he not want to marry you?"

Su Ling withdrew her gaze from the rings. "I know he loves me a lot. He even straight up calls me his wife and he showed me our future home. But if a man intends to marry a woman, doesn't he at least show signs? We have been together for a long time and we are already at the right age to settle down."

Wan Jia didn't know what to say. It was not like they had been dating for years. Not everyone was like Henry Blanc and Lin Lihua who would get engaged after seeing each other four times. At the same time, they were indeed old enough to get married. Not to mention, Lu Shaoting had had a fair share of nagging from his father about marriage. It was a surprise that he hadn't thought of proposing yet. "I don't understand either. However, I know that Shaoting will never marry anyone if it's not you. I think he is waiting for something, but I don't know what it is."

Su Ling emotionally hugged Wan Jia. "I was starting to think he doesn't really see me as a future wife."

Wan Jia was stunned.

Su Ling was stunned too.

They didn't know that they had become that close.
