Chapter 501
501 I want to be your woman openly!
Tong Lu had no idea how petty men could be. She felt at ease after she got the approval. That night, she sent Shanshan to the presidential palace to spend Thanksgiving with the First Lady and attend a charity dinner with him.
At the guest sign-in area, he decisively handed in the “purple fantasy” entrance gift.
Leng Yejin took the pen from the waiter and signed his name on the background board in a lively manner. Tong Lu raised her gaze and saw that he had also written her name. He wrote both names in one go without a single break in between.
It was as if they were originally one.
Leng Yejin was very satisfied with his work. His long arm landed arrogantly on her waist before he retracted it. He looked at the flashing lights at the counter and said in a low voice, ” “How’s my writing? Calligraphy Lady, please give me your evaluation.”
A few steps away were the reporters taking photos, so she naturally didn’t say anything. She posed quietly beside him for the reporters to take photos, and then she walked into the venue with him.
“Ye Jin.”
A woman’s voice was heard from behind her. Tong Lu turned to look. Guo Ying was holding her father’s hand and walking toward them gracefully. The woman had put in a lot of effort to dress herself up. She looked noble and elegant. She was dressed in a long black dress, which accentuated her fair skin. She was beautiful and alluring.
miss Tong, you’re here too. Tonight is Thanksgiving. Will Shanshan be spending it alone at home? ”
As the two women stood together, it was only natural for them to size up each other’s attire. Guo Ying noticed that no matter how much effort she put in to dress up, she still felt a little uncomfortable when she glanced at Tong Lu, who was standing next to Leng Yejin. Wasn’t the gown that Tong Lu was wearing the same as the gown that master LOUEN had won in the international design competition this season?
With the help of her daughter, miss Tong was living a really comfortable life at the Leng family’s house. No wonder Tong Lu could not wait to ask Ye Jin to take the child back home just a few hours after she had taken the child away. She was afraid that the good days would never come back.
Tong Lu sensed hostility from him, but she ignored him and pursed her lips. Shanshan will be at the presidential palace tonight. She’ll be spending time with Grandpa and Grandma.
Since she knew that Leng Yejin was not interested in Guo Ying at all, there was no need for her to care about Guo Ying. They merely nodded at each other and did not say anything else.
Even though she was upset that Leng Yejin had agreed to two of her requests, he had done so on the premise that he was able to do what he could. She did not think that Leng Yejin would agree to any of her requests unconditionally. This domineering man would never allow himself to be manipulated by others.
Just because she did not mind, it did not mean that Guo Ying did not mind. As far as she knew, Leng Yejin rarely brought a female companion with him to various events. Now, he was giving his arm to his sister-in-law. How envious was that? If she hadn’t abandoned Shanshan back then, would that position now belong to her?
Guo Ying’s face was noble and cold, but a trace of regret and unwillingness flashed through her heart. If she had known that ye Shuo’s life was so short, why didn’t she take care of Shanshan for two more years? If that was the case, she would be able to live in the Leng family’s house and live in the same villa as him. That was something she had always dreamed of.
However, she did not want to be Leng Yejin’s sister-in-law!
At the side, Leng Yejin and Minister Guo were having a small talk. When Minister Guo saw this, he praised Tong Lu.”Miss Tong, you’re so beautiful tonight.”
“Thank you, Minister Guo,” Tong Lu smiled faintly.
Courtesy demands reciprocity. It was time for Leng Yejin to praise the woman by Minister Guo’s side. Guo Ying was all smiles as she waited.
To her surprise, Leng Yejin lowered his head and agreed with her in a very serious manner.”She’s indeed very beautiful, and she has a good foundation.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he strode forward with his long legs. Tong Lu held his arm as they continued walking toward the venue. It was as if Guo Ying was just air.
