Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 263 Engagement Ceremony
"What are you looking at so intently?" Qian Ke'er's gaze was fixed on his retracted hand.

Xiao Shen didn't answer directly, "It's almost time, haven't you finished testing yet?"

Qian Ke'er then remembered the important matter and quickly spun around to show him, "Brother Shen, what do you think of this one?"

Xiao Shen stood up, didn't even look at it, grabbed his coat and walked out, saying, "If you think it's good, then it's good!"

Qian Ke'er was snubbed and embarrassed. She glared at the staff member who had just flattered her, and the group immediately scattered like birds.

Xiao Shen eventually listened to Old Master Sheng's arrangement and got engaged to Qian Ke'er.

Today's engagement banquet was a gathering of many wealthy and influential families.

"Fourth Master and Miss Ke'er have arrived!"

As the door slowly opened, Qian Ke'er walked gracefully in, arm in arm with Xiao Shen. The spotlight shone on them, creating a dreamlike and romantic scene.

"Fourth Master and Miss Ke'er are a perfect match, a match made in heaven!"

"I heard that this Miss Ke'er has a bad temper and is very arrogant. She's so beautiful, the contrast is too great!"

"So what? Successful men love taming this kind of woman!"

Qian Ke'er had a sweet smile and a happy expression. Her gaze towards Xiao Shen was full of affection and infatuation. Xiao Shen, however, remained cold and aloof, making him unapproachable.

The marriage between Xiao and the Qian family can be described as a powerful alliance. At this point, almost no one in the country dares to confront them, which also serves as a threat and deterrent to various bigwigs in the industry.

Chen Wanru sighed bitterly, "Look at the fourth brother, and then look at Jiayang. We Jiayang are clearly the eldest grandson of the Xiao family, so why didn't this good thing fall into our laps? Fine, we didn't get it, but we ended up with the almost impoverished Nan family, which made us Jiayang get cheated out of money and our virtue. I really can't swallow this!"

Xiao Jiayang: "Don't worry, Mom. So what if Nan Wu is gone? At worst, I'll just find a rich woman who's not much worse than Qian Ke'er!"

Chen Wanru slapped him on the head, "How could I have given birth to such an idiot? Looking for a rich woman? Our Xiao family's eldest branch is no longer useful, does it need you to find a rich woman? Aren't you ashamed? Your parents and we are ashamed!"

Xiao Jiayang rubbed his head, looking aggrieved. "You're feeling resentful, aren't you? I'm just sacrificing myself for your sake!"

Chen Wanru almost fainted.

Jiang Rourou also arrived, dressed in a flamboyant manner, wearing almost all her valuable jewelry, practically with the words "I am the future mistress of the Qian family" written on her face!
For this reason, Qian Huai'an called Qian Xingjie aside and said, "Xingjie, remind Rou Rou in the future not to be so high-profile in public!"

Qian Xingjie wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground. "I know, Dad. I promise she won't do it again!"

He then dragged Jiang Rourou to a secluded corner, saying, "Quickly take off those things from your neck and wrists!"

Jiang Rourou was confused. "Why? It looks great, and it proves my class!" Qian Xingjie laughed upon hearing this. "What class do you think you are? You're just an illegitimate child! Do you really think wearing designer clothes can change that fact?"

"Young Master Qian, how could you say that to me? I did this to save face for you!" Jiang Rourou said, tears welling up in her eyes.

"You think I'm something to be proud of just because I'm wearing gold and silver? Tacky is tacky, and you're nowhere near as good as Su Ying!"

Jiang Rourou suddenly looked up. "What do you mean by that? Are you comparing me to Su Ying? Wait, how do you know that bitch?"

Qian Xingjie tidied her stray hairs, but there was not a trace of affection in his eyes for his lover. "Remember what I said, or I will take back my idea of ​​marrying you!"

"Hey, Qian Xingjie, stop right there and explain yourself!"

Damn it, he actually knows that bitch Su Ying too, how could this be?
During the engagement ceremony, only Qian Ke'er was smiling the whole time. Xiao Shen seemed to be there just to make up the numbers, and he had a sullen face the entire time.

"Brother Shen, shall we go over and have a drink with our friends over there?" Qian Ke'er turned around to look for someone, but didn't see Xiao Shen. She asked the Xiao family members who were with her, and the answer she got was, "Fourth Master said he has urgent business to attend to and that you don't need to wait for him!"

what?
This is their engagement party, and he's left her here all alone again!

Qian Ke'er wanted to lash out, but with so many people around, she had to force a smile and pretend that nothing had happened.

“Miss, Fourth Master has left!” Mu Sha came over.

Qian Ke'er trembled all over, her eyes reddening. "I know!"

"He went too far! He didn't consider your feelings at all!"

Qian Ke'er gave a sad laugh, "So what? It's because I like him so much!"

Mu Sha opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but seeing Qian Ke'er's bad expression, she held back.

"Let me take you back!"

"Shen-ge has left, I can't leave. Let's wait until the engagement banquet is over. Help me to the lounge first!"

Mu Sha admired Qian Ke'er's infatuation, but also sympathized with her persistence. Of all people to like, why did she have to like Xiao Shen, whose heart was harder than stone?

After seeing Qian Ke'er off, Mu Sha saw Jiang Rourou not far away, showing off her dress and looking extremely proud.

Jiang Rourou happened to be looking at her, but Mu Sha snorted and looked away.

"Musa, you stop right there!" Jiang Rourou chased after her.

Musa stopped.

What did you mean by that look you gave me just now?

Musa feigned ignorance, "What? What do you mean? What are you talking about?"

"I saw everything. Don't try to deny it. You look down on me, don't you? Sorry, but if you keep looking down on me, I'll be your master in the near future!"

Mu Sha glanced at her stomach. "Jiang Rourou, have you forgotten what I said last time? Why aren't you leaving yet? You won't shed a tear until you see the coffin, will you?"

Jiang Rourou, relying on Qian Xingjie's support, was fearless. "Fine, go ahead and sue me if you want. I'll remind you one more time: even if I'm carrying a girl, she's still a member of the Qian family. Uncle Qian will be disappointed at most, but you're a different story. You're a lackey. I can kill you in a minute!"

"Ha! Jiang Rourou, you have quite the nerve!"

Jiang Rourou stroked her lower abdomen, "Of course, I'm practically your master too, so you'll have to bow and scrape to me from now on!"

Musa stared at her with disdain and smiled, "You think you're worthy?"

This enraged Jiang Rourou. "You dog slave, how dare you speak to me like that? If I don't teach you a lesson, you'll never know your place, will you?"

Jiang Rourou grabbed a glass of red wine and splashed it at Mu Sha.

Instantly, deep red juice flowed down Musa's short hair.

"What are you doing here?"

Qian Xingjie was worried that Jiang Rourou would embarrass herself because she didn't know the rules, which would make him lose face, so he had been looking for her and found her here.
