A Perfect Couple
(Begging for monthly votes, begging for collection)
The ancestors of the Yan and Lin families were both Zhejiang businessmen. They became business partners at the end of the Qing Dynasty. During the Republic of China, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang businessmen made use of their financial advantages in the business and political arena. Although the Yan and Lin families were not the kind of big families that were the leaders, they became the big winners in this wave of the times.
The Yan family entered Shanghai early on and had been taking root here. The Lin family, on the other hand, was deeply rooted in Zhejiang, with Ningbo as their base camp. Although they suffered a devastating blow during the turbulent times, they had a wide range of connections. In addition, many of their branches had already established a foothold abroad. Hence, after the reform and opening up, the two families quickly stood up again.
However, in Shanghai, which was at the forefront of the reform and opening up, the Yan family became more and more powerful. In comparison, the Lin family paled in comparison. Hence, the Lin family was quite satisfied with the marriage this time. The marriage between the most outstanding descendants of both families was the most satisfying marriage for both families.
Although Lin Su did not admit it, Yan Chaozong had long treated Lin Su as his fiancée. Hence, he was the one who organized the birthday party this year. He gathered the young people of the same generation of both families together and many of their mutual friends. Yan Chaozong naturally knew the intention of doing this. It was to satisfy the desire of the younger generation of the Lin family to interact with the Yan family. This way, not only would the younger generation be satisfied, but the elders would also appreciate it. This was his way of doing things. A simple birthday party with many reasons.
However, this was precisely what Lin Su did not like. For many things, Lin Su preferred the simpler the better. There was no need to be too complicated or mixed with other meanings. A birthday with a bouquet of flowers, a meal, a birthday cake, and a "Happy Birthday" was enough.
Yan Chaozong booked a medium-sized banquet hall in the Peninsula Hotel. At this time, the relatives and friends of both families had already arrived. They were all young people. Yan Chaozong did not invite the elders so that they would not be able to relax.
On the way to the Peninsula Hotel, Lin Su was still very depressed. She was thinking about what Qin Sheng had done. She had specially asked Qin Sheng if he had anything to do today. Qin Sheng also said that he was fine. Why did he suddenly disappear? Could it be that Qin Sheng met with danger or went on a business trip? With their current relationship, even if Qin Sheng went on a business trip, he would at least let her know.
"It's your birthday today, why do you seem to be in a bad mood?" Yan Chaozong asked in confusion. Yan Chaozong was quite happy that Lin Su had agreed to hold this gathering for him. At least to him, Lin Su still had him in her heart. From another perspective, there was really nothing between Lin Su and Qin Sheng. Otherwise, they would have gone to the world of the two of them and he would not have anything to do with it.
Lin Su naturally had to cover it up. She said casually, "It's nothing. Maybe I've been too tired from work recently and didn't rest well."
Yan Chaozong chuckled and said, "Well, work is never finished. When it's time to rest, you still have to rest. At the very least, you have to take good care of yourself. I want to take care of you, but if you don't give me a chance, I'm really afraid that Granny Lin, Uncle and Auntie will blame me."
Lin Su did not want to talk about these things, so she changed the topic. "Where are we going now?"
"The Peninsula Hotel. Your birthday party will be held there," Yan Chaozong explained.
Lin Su said awkwardly, "Are we going now? At least let me go back and change my clothes. "
"No need, I've already ordered a gown for you. You can just change in the guest room of the Peninsula Hotel. It's more convenient this way." Yan Chaozong had already arranged everything.
Elie's gowns were the world's top high-end custom-made gowns. They were worn by celebrities when they walked the red carpet. Some celebrities even rented them or wore knockoffs. But Yan Chaozong naturally did not lack this bit of money. After all, he was investing in his future wife.
Lin Su was a little helpless, but she still said politely, "Thank you."
"You don't have to thank me," Yan Chaozong said with a gentlemanly smile.
Putting everything else aside, any woman who met a man like Yan Chaozong would be the perfect life partner. But love was not something that could be settled just by being compatible. If two people lived together, it would be a lifetime. If there were no feelings, no chemistry, no topics to talk about, etc., it would not take long for them to get tired of each other.
Not long after, they arrived at the Peninsula Hotel. Lin Su's close friends had been waiting for a long time. Yan Chaozong brought Lin Su directly to the customer service. Seeing Lin Su enter, her close friends joked, "Our male and female leads are finally here tonight. They are indeed a perfect match."
This was Lin Su's best friend, Tan Jing. Currently, she was also in Shanghai, working in a consulting company of the world's top 500. Usually, she and Lin Su spent the most time together.
Beautiful women were often surrounded by beautiful women. These three close friends were also extremely beautiful. Each of them had different styles and temperaments. Lin Su stared at Tan Jing and said, "No one will think you're mute if you don't speak."
"Oh, are you shy?" Tan Jing said disapprovingly.
Lin Su really did not know what to do with her.
Yan Chaozong knew that it was not appropriate to stay here. He said sensibly, "Then you guys chat, I'll go up and see if everything is ready."
"Take care, Young Master Yan. We won't see you off." The few women teased him. They were more or less envious of Lin Su. But the Lin family was rich and Lin Su was also extremely outstanding. They could only be envious.
After Yan Chaozong left, Tan Jing quickly pulled Lin Su inside and said, "Beauty Lin, come and try on your Elie gown.
I'm dying of envy. When will a Prince Charming buy one for me? "
"You're really a gold digger," Lin Su said coquettishly.
Song Chu, another beautiful woman with a good figure at the side, pouted and said, "You really don't know how lucky you are. If not for the fact that we are close friends, I would have already made a move on Young Master Yan. Hahahaha."
The few women laughed and scolded. Yan Chaozong, on the other hand, went to another room. He had already arranged for people to receive the guests tonight. At this moment, there were already many guests in the banquet hall upstairs. Yan Chaozong's phone was also about to explode from the calls. However, he did not pick up. Instead, he frowned.
In front of him stood Feng He, who had just returned, and Uncle Zhen, who had been following him recently.
"Feng He, how's the investigation going?" Yan Chaozong asked in a low voice.
He has a daughter who is studying at Fudan University and is currently in her second year of university. Qin Sheng had a girlfriend called Su Qin when he was in high school. She was the joke of their school. The two of them entered Fudan University together and broke up before graduation. It was at that time that Qin Sheng's grandfather passed away. Then, he disappeared for two and a half years. He only returned to Shanghai a few months ago. Apart from the missing information of Qin Sheng for more than two years, all the information of Qin Sheng in Xi 'an is of no threat to us. "Feng He said slowly," We have found out where Qin Sheng was born. He came to Xi' an with his grandfather when he was six years old and has been living at the foot of the Zhongnan Mountains. His grandfather did not have any background and was just an ordinary old man. After Qin Sheng went to school, he was placed in foster parents' house. This man was a businessman and his business was doing quite well in Xi 'an with assets of hundreds of millions.
This was all the information that Feng He could find. Naturally, he could not find any further information. Even Qin Sheng himself did not know what his grandfather did in the past, let alone these outsiders.
After listening, Yan Chaozong was slightly satisfied. After all, the less threatening Qin Sheng was, the more at ease he felt. However, he suddenly realized something was wrong. He frowned and asked, "Where are his biological parents?"
"Qin Sheng is an orphan. We don't know anything about his parents," Feng He explained.
Yan Chaozong nodded slightly. However, he quickly looked at Uncle Zhen and said, "Uncle Zhen, you told me the day before yesterday that Qin Sheng went overseas?"
"Yes, I checked the flight records. He went to Chengdu and has not returned yet," Uncle Zhen explained.
Yan Chaozong chuckled, "It's best that he doesn't return."
He was not even at Lin Su's birthday. He really thought too highly of himself.
"Alright, let's go up," Yan Chaozong said happily.
When Qin Sheng came out of Pudong Airport, Xia Ding was already waiting outside. Qin Sheng frowned and asked, "Do you know where it is?"
"Boss, if I can't do this, I really don't have the face to see you. I found it long ago. It's at the Peninsula Hotel. I'll send you there directly," Xia Ding said honestly. This was the task that Qin Sheng had given him, he naturally had to complete it perfectly.
In the banquet hall of the Peninsula Hotel, the relatives and friends of the Yan and Lin family had all arrived. If they included each other's companions, there were a total of 40 to 50 people. It could be seen how grand the scene was today.
After Yan Chaozong came in, he became the focus of the crowd. He regarded himself as the male host and greeted all the guests present. He listened to their praises and enjoyed it.
After a while, Feng He came over to tell him that Lin Su was already prepared and was waiting outside. Yan Chaozong greeted everyone and left. At the same time, he asked Feng He to tell the host that they could start.
Outside the banquet hall, when Yan Chaozong saw Lin Su, he was really shocked. He felt that this purplish-pink Elie was really beautiful.
He felt that this purple and pink Elie Saab fairy gown was really suitable for Lin Su. Tonight, Lin Su was like a fairy that had fallen to the mortal world. Yan Chaozong stared at Lin Su and could not come back to his senses for a while.
Lin Su was a little embarrassed, but she really admired Yan Chaozong's taste. This gown was really beautiful and especially suited for her temperament. Lin Su coughed.
Yan Chaozong then came back to his senses and said sincerely, "Lin Su, you're really too beautiful tonight. I've never seen such a beautiful fairy before."
"Thank you," Lin Su nodded politely.
At this moment, after the host warmed up the crowd, he said slowly, "Next, let's give a warm round of applause to tonight's female lead, Lin Su."
Yan Chaozong bent his knees slightly and reached out his hand at the same time. Lin Su wanted to reject him, but she had no choice but to hold his hand. Yan Chaozong smiled knowingly. When the door of the banquet hall was pushed open, he led Lin Su in slowly.
