Bab 143: The Engagement (2)

Feeling encouraged, she took one step forward and said, "Yang Xinyu, please relax. Shall I get you some wine? I would suggest that you call off this engagement, as that wretched girl will never come. She had the audacity to behave like a vamp on this occasion. She didn't even think about your reputation." Said Ying Yue, still speaking loud enough for everyone to hear.

The Chairman, on the other hand, was feeling extremely miserable. He had taken so much trouble to plan and execute this event and Wu Lina didn't even come. The entire evening was falling apart. His relatives were snickering. He felt all the more bad for his son. Yang Xinyu had been so looking forward to this occasion. He just didn't want his son to suffer anymore. He looked at his son's face. He was emitting a cold aura. He hadn't spoken a word to Ying Yue. Feeling dejected, the Chairman went to sit on a nearby chair and held his head in his hands. Perhaps his wife was right. Perhaps Wu Lina brought misfortune.
