"By the way, Jiaoyang called and said that he would take you to a banquet later. The clothes will be delivered immediately. Your sister and your brother-in-law will also go there to enhance their relationship. It just so happens that the four of you got into a car."
"I don't want to go to that kind of place, it's boring."
An's mother glared at her, "You girl, what are you boring about? Go and get to know someone who is about to graduate in a year. How can you step into society if you don't understand the ways of the world?"
"Okay, I'll go. I'll go upstairs to take a shower first. When the clothes arrive, bring them up to me." She went upstairs again.
She went into the bathroom and took a hot shower, came out, changed her clothes, put on light makeup, and then went downstairs.
Almost everyone is here in the living room, including the eldest brother, second sister, brother-in-law in name only, my fiancé, parents, etc.
Tonight, Lin Jiaoyang wore a white dress, which matched his body very well, and his peach blossom eyes were clearly displayed.
Gu Changqing was still wearing a black suit with a sky blue shirt underneath, and his second sister was also wearing a black evening dress.
Lin Jiaoyang stretched out his hand and smiled coquettishly at her. An Xiaonuan tugged at the corner of her mouth, not wanting to offend him, and handed her hand to him. He held her tightly and led her out of the living room.
They sat in the front, while Gu Changqing and An Xingxin sat in the back.
The car drove smoothly to the place where the banquet was held.
The four of them were clearly attracting attention when they appeared on such an occasion.
"Xiao Nuan!"
An Xiaonuan looked up and found that it was her former friend Su Mei. She was wearing a golden dress with a beautiful bow around her waist.
However, since she got engaged to Lin Jiaoyang, Su Mei has disappeared as if she has evaporated from the world. She can't be found anywhere. An Xiaonuan knows that she likes Lin Jiaoyang and wants to find someone to tell her clearly.
, but never had the chance.
"Su Mei, where have you been these days? I went to your house to look for you but I couldn't find you." An Xiaonuan walked towards her.
She took a deep look at Lin Jiaoyang, and then said to An Xiaonuan, "Come with me, I have something to say to you."
An Xiaonuan nodded and followed her to the bathroom.
There is no one in the bathroom.
Noticing that her expression was wrong, An Xiaonuan hurriedly asked, "Su Mei, what's wrong with you?"
Su Mei's eyes were red, "Xiao Nuan, you did it on purpose, right?"
"What?"
"You clearly know that I have liked Lin Jiaoyang for several years, but you want to marry him, right?"
"Su Mei, I didn't want to do this either. It was arranged by my parents. You——"
She seemed to be unable to look away, with envy and jealousy flashing in her eyes, "Stop talking! Why should he marry you? My family background is not bad, why?!"
An Xiaonuan wanted to hold her hand, but she pushed her away, "They say sisters are deeply affectionate and only men can't take it away from them. You are so unkind! Xiaonuan, you have forgotten our friends for so many years.
You let me watch you marry the man I love, how can I continue to watch!"
An Xiaonuan didn't know how to tell her that things had become such a foregone conclusion and it was not up to her to do whatever she wanted.
She wanted to say something, but at this moment she felt that saying too much would be useless.
"Su Mei, this matter is a foregone conclusion. I'm sorry. I have also discussed it with my parents, but they don't agree to break off the engagement. Unless the Lin family speaks out, I can't break off the engagement with him."
Su Mei's eyes were red, "Can't or don't want to? Xiaonuan, we have been sisters for so many years, how could you not know that I have been silently liking Jiaoyang for so many years!"
