Chapter 256: Engagement Banquet

The news of Miao Jian's disappearance has been quietly covered up.

The news of Shao Xinghan's engagement spread throughout the world, and entertainment gossip news continued to report on the matter. A business tycoon who is not an artist was ranked first on the hot search list.

Jian Ruo in Los Angeles is busy with her studies, but she doesn't know that the brother she once loved will be engaged tomorrow.

Jian Ruo received a call from Grandpa Chen Hu, asking him to go home early today and tell him something. She spent a few hours in the library, then packed her things and prepared to go home.

As soon as he left the library, he was stopped by a blond man with a gentlemanly invitation: "Hey, Ruo'er, it's so early today, can I invite you to have dinner with me?"

The man's raised Mandarin made Jian Ruo laugh and politely refuse: "I'm sorry, Mike, it's really troublesome for you to wait here for me every day, but I have something to do today."

"Trouble? What is that?" Mike asked curiously.

"Here you go, think for yourself." Jian Ruo took out a piece of white paper and wrote the word "trouble" on it and handed it to him.

Chen Shen's car arrived at the entrance of the library. Jian Ruo walked over and left with a smile, leaving him confused.

As soon as he got in the car, he heard Chen Shen complaining: "Ruo'er, you are really popular. Every time I come to pick you up for more than a year, different boys come to chat with you."

"Shen, that's enough for you, don't make fun of me anymore." Jian Ruo waved her hands.

On the way, Jian Ruo was too tired. The two of them didn't chat for a few words before she gradually fell asleep, dreaming about Shao Xinghan and her past.

When he got home, Chen Shen looked at Jian Ruo who was not sleeping soundly, tears fell on his face, which made Chen Shen feel heartbroken.

"Ruo'er, who is that man? He hurt you so much?" Chen Shen gently wiped away her tears and sighed.

Chen Shen couldn't bear to wake her up, so the princess picked her up and went in under the eyes of many servants.

She felt the gentle embrace, and she thought it was Shao Xinghan holding her, and nuzzled her into his arms.

"You are back." Chen Hu shouted loudly.

This shout woke Jian Ruo up. Chen Shen looked at his grandfather dissatisfied, as if to say, Grandpa, can't you keep your voice down?

Jian Ruo slowly opened her eyes and gradually realized that she was being held by someone. When she raised her eyes, she couldn't help but cough in embarrassment.

"Shen, let me down." Jian Ruo patted him gently and said.

"Oh, Ruo'er, I didn't mean it." Chen Hu said, covering his eyes on purpose.

"Grandpa, what are you thinking about?" Jian Ruo walked over and grabbed him and said coquettishly.

"Okay, don't think about it, don't think about it." Chen Hu said dotingly.

Jian Ruo helped Chen Hu go to the living room, where the three of them sat.

"Grandpa, why are you calling me back in such a hurry?" Jian Ruo said first.

"Ruo'er, let me ask your professor, you are very good and you have completed the third and fourth courses in one year, and you can graduate next year." Chen Hu asked.

"Yeah." Jian Ruo nodded.

"Ruo'er, grandpa hopes you can take care of yourself and don't be too tired. This is how you learn design. You are now famous here. If you don't mess with your body, grandpa will feel sorry for you." Chen Hu

He warned with concern.

"I know, grandpa, don't worry." Jian Ruo agreed with a smile.

"Grandpa, didn't you ask me to come back so early just to talk about this?" Jian Ruo asked with a smile.

"You little girl, nothing can escape your eyes." Chen Hu sighed.

"My good friend's son is getting engaged, and I have to go back to China." Chen Hu explained.

"Are you going back alone?" Jian Ruo asked doubtfully.

"No, I will go too, it's my brother's engagement party." Chen Shen explained.

"Oh, you go ahead. By the way, grandpa, take Fei'er with you. Firstly, I can take care of you. She is very attentive. I don't worry. Secondly, if you really need a female companion, you can let her come." Jian Ruo smiled.

said.

"Hey, girl, won't you go back with us?" Chen Hu asked with a sigh.

"No, I'm going to participate in an international design competition with my professor in a few days. I need to prepare the artwork so I won't bother." Jian Ruo refused.

Chen Hu wanted to persuade him but was stopped by Chen Shen: "Grandpa, since Ruo'er has something to do, don't force it."

"Fei'er, it's better to take care of you personally. I don't need a female companion. I really need you. After all, I'm used to it. As for grandpa, you can rest assured that he has a housekeeper to take care of you." Chen Shen explained.

"Okay, remember to bring me some wedding candy, and Shen will bring me some delicious domestic food." Jian Ruo said with a smile.

Her glance and smile deeply moved Chen Shen's heart. He had suppressed it for more than a year and allowed himself to see Ruo'er, but the more he rejected her, the more he fell in love with her.

"Okay, little gluttony." Chen Shen stroked her hair and said fondly.

They left in the evening. Although there were so many people at home, no one accompanied her to eat. She was really bored and asked Fei'er to sit down and eat with her.

Feier had long been accustomed to the casual Jian Ruo, and sat down consciously to chat and laugh with her.

In China, Chen Shen followed Chen Hu to attend Shao Xinghan's engagement party.

Chen Hu looked at Shao Xinghan and couldn't help but dislike his grandson, feeling that he was too disappointing.

"Shen'er, look at Han'er, who is already engaged and has a child. Look at you, you have a successful career but a blank relationship." Chen Hu complained.

"Grandpa, this matter can't be rushed." Chen Shen said with a smile.

"You are still laughing. I know that your kid has fallen in love with Ruo'er, so you should hurry up. It's not like you don't know that the people chasing Ruo'er in school can line up for several blocks, so you are not afraid that Ruo'er will run away.

"Chen Hu patted him and urged.

"Grandpa, I will work hard." Chen Shen promised.

The Shao family stood at the door to greet the guests. Chen Shen was curious why he didn't see Han.

Shao Yingzhuo told him that he was in the innermost room on the second floor, so Chen Shen asked the housekeeper to take care of his grandfather and go take a look himself.

"Dong dong."

Shao Xinghan opened the door and looked at Chen Shen expressionlessly. Chen Shen was a little surprised. Why did this happy event feel like a funeral?

"Deep." He shouted expressionlessly.

"Han, what's wrong with you? Isn't today a good day for you? Why are you acting like you're going to die?" Chen Shen asked in surprise.

"A marriage without emotion is a grave." He looked out the window and said.

"Why are you so depressed? You have children, you should be happy." Chen Shen advised.

Chen Shen had never met the girl Shao Xinghan said he loved most. He only heard him say that he loved her very much, but she lost her in the end.

"Stop trying to persuade me, aren't I already willing to get engaged?" He said coldly.

"You are even more indifferent now than before, and the coldness in your bones is even more pressing. Han, if you suppress yourself like this, something will happen." Chen Shen advised, looking at his good brother's appearance.

"Okay, stop talking, let's talk about you, how are you? Are you still planning to be single?" Shao Xinghan changed the subject.
