Chapter 57 Temporarily Agreeing to the Proposal
This Lin Shiyi is just like her mother—narrow-minded and fond of stirring up drama. Since she's already infatuated with Huo Yanting, she's bound to come up with all kinds of self-destructive schemes. I must make her taste the bitterness of being ruthlessly rejected by Huo Yanting.
Anyway, I'm in a cooperative relationship with Huo Yanting. If I add this condition, he should agree, right?
Lin Banxia carried her food and picked a seat to sit down, no longer paying attention to the happenings on Huo Qinglin's side.
However, Huo Qinglin suddenly became unusually enthusiastic toward her. After she ate a few bites, he walked over and grabbed her delicate hand, saying, "Banxia, come with me. I'll introduce you to a few friends."
"Let go first. I'm wearing heels and can't walk steadily!" Lin Banxia really didn't want him touching her, not even her hand.
Huo Qinglin had no choice but to release her, but his expression betrayed a hint of dissatisfaction from being rejected.
"Banxia, it's rare to have such a good opportunity. Could you be a little warmer? Don't keep a cold face. I promise, during the banquet later, I'll give you the biggest surprise." Huo Qinglin assumed Lin Banxia's unhappiness stemmed from his not having proposed yet.
Lin Banxia reluctantly forced out a smile. "Qinglin, I've always been waiting for you to surprise me. Don't let me down!"
"Don't worry, I definitely won't disappoint you." Huo Qinglin said confidently. The engagement ring he bought was something even the wealthiest families would struggle to afford. He truly went all out.
