.
Qin-An stood stiffly in place, watching them walk inside. His hand in his sleeve clenched into a fist, feeling an unprecedented sense of shame and anger.
The expressions of the people in the banquet hall varied, some showing surprise.
After all, Shen Yanshi rarely attended events, and he had never brought a female companion before. This was the first time.
And what identity did this woman have to appear here?
Everyone couldn't help but speculate, but no matter what, they certainly didn't dare to underestimate her.
Shen Jun chuckled and said to Zhao Jing beside him, "It seems Yanshi is really taken with this little star. No wonder the family-arranged blind dates never worked out."
Zhao Jing had also gone on a blind date with Shen Yanshi before. They had one meal together and never saw each other again. It was said to have ended quite unpleasantly.
Zhao Jing snorted coldly, "Anyone who wants to marry Shen Yanshi must have done something terrible in their past life."
"Yanshi is just like that. Don't take it to heart."
The Zhao family was currently flourishing, and Zhao Jing was the only daughter, making her the most suitable candidate for an arranged marriage. Grandfather was biased, always trying to match her with Shen Yanshi.
But Shen Yanshi wasn't interested, and Shen Jun certainly didn't want to miss the opportunity. If he could gain the Zhao family's support, it would be a significant advantage for him.
Shen Yanshi looked down at Xiang-Nuan, "What are you doing here?"
He was holding her now, speaking to her in a low voice. To others, it looked like a lover's intimate murmur, but only Xiang-Nuan could feel the coldness in his eyes.
"I'm here to discuss a collaboration."
He sneered, "Really? I thought you were reluctant to leave and wanted to see your first love at the engagement party."
Xiang-Nuan suddenly regretted staying.
She should have left immediately!
But now it was too late to regret. Everyone's eyes were on her, scrutinizing.
Feeling a prickling sensation on her back, Xiang-Nuan was pushed down into a seat by Shen Yanshi.
Qin Chuyun watched helplessly as Xiang-Nuan took her seat, grinding her teeth in anger.
Qin Zhanghui timely took the stage, "Thank you all for coming to my son's engagement party. There was a little misunderstanding earlier that delayed things a bit, but now that all the guests have arrived, let's start the engagement ceremony."
Qin Zhanghui wiped his sweat and handed the microphone to the host.
The host warmly engaged the crowd, "Next, let's welcome Mr. Qin and Miss Chen!"
Applause filled the room.
Qin-An walked up from the stage, his face still a bit pale, but his suit was immaculate, and he exuded a refined aura. Chen Sining wore a custom-made silver-gray fairy dress, looking graceful and elegant.
A handsome gentleman and a noble lady, indeed a perfect match.
Xiang-Nuan never thought she would attend Qin-An's engagement party in this way. Sitting in the audience, watching him and his fiancée, she suddenly realized how foolish her dreams of marrying him seven years ago had been.
Shen Yanshi leaned back in his chair, legs crossed, "Qin-An may not have many skills, but he sure knows how to win over women. Given the Qin family's status, they shouldn't be able to match with the Chen family, yet Chen Sining is willing to marry him. Who knows how much effort Qin-An put in."
Xiang-Nuan pretended not to hear.
He smirked lazily, "Probably more effort than he put into chasing you back then."
Xiang-Nuan pressed her lips together, finally unable to bear it any longer, and looked at him.
"Shen Yanshi, aren't you being childish?"

Shen Yanshi raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"
On stage, under the host's guidance, Qin-An and Chen Sining exchanged engagement rings and were now cutting the cake together amidst the cheers of the crowd.
Xiang-Nuan quietly watched this perfect and happy scene, feeling as if she were an outsider.
She said softly, "Yes, Qin-An ultimately abandoned me and chose a wife who was his equal. And you? How are you any better than him?"
She turned to look at him, her tone mocking, "Would you marry me?"
