"… Friends, the moment we've been waiting for has finally come. Please allow me to announce that Princess Su 'Er's 16th birthday celebration will now begin! "
"Please welcome Princess Su 'Er onto the stage to receive the flowers and blessings from her loved ones and guests. Let us welcome her with a round of applause."
As the applause rang out, countless petals of various colors floated down from the sky. Among the petals, a fairy-like girl slowly walked up from the backstage. Her appearance caused the warm applause to pause for a moment. Everyone who looked at this girl released a strange light in their eyes.
"Su 'Er …" Looking at the girl in front of him, Ling Chen couldn't help but mutter her name.
It had been nearly four to five months since the last time he had been separated from her. During this period of time, he had received help from her, felt her efforts and her quiet efforts, but he had never been able to see her.
Su 'Er was wearing a pure white birthday dress, and she looked quite petite and elegant. Her steps were very light and slow, and she seemed to be very careful. It was as if she was a celestial fairy from the Moon Palace walking towards them.
Standing next to the beautiful MC, she silently raised her head. Her beautiful eyes were like sparkling spring water, clear and moving. Her face was soft and beautiful, and paired with her bright red lips, she seemed quite gentle and moving. Her eyes and expression clearly revealed an innate tenderness and frailty. When this kind of natural frailty appeared on such a beautiful and delicate woman, it made people want to love and protect her.
Su 'Er … was today's main character.
Looking at his niece, the usually cold-blooded Su Yi Cheng was grinning from ear to ear. He couldn't stop smiling no matter what … This is my niece! Heheh, whose niece was as beautiful, cute, obedient, sensible, and didn't have a bad temper at all! You can all be jealous, hahahahaha …
The beautiful MC slightly leaned forwards and smiled as she said, "Princess Su 'Er, first of all, I would like to express my boundless blessings to you on your 16th birthday. Today is your first day, and so many people have come from afar to celebrate with you. Are you happy? "
"I'm very happy, thank you all." Su 'Er lightly smiled, her voice as gentle as a warm breeze.
"Then, do you have anything to say to everyone?" The beautiful MC continued to smile as she asked.
Su'Er took the microphone and bowed slightly to the people in front of her. "Thank you, everyone, for accompanying Su'Er on her 16th birthday. Thank you for your blessings. Thank you."
After saying that, he fell silent.
As the main character today, she said very little. Her words were very casual, but if one looked carefully, they would find that her smiling expression was slightly stiff, and there was almost no emotion in her voice.
She knew very well that most of the people in the hall were not here for her, but for her parents and uncle.
In the past, she would spend her birthdays with Xiao Qi and her other sisters. Her uncle Su Yi Cheng would also put aside everything and eat birthday cake with her. In the past, she was always in a good mood. Today was her first birthday party in her life. There were many people celebrating her birthday with her, but at a glance, there was almost no one she knew. Although the upper-class circle was really small, she rarely went out, so her social circle was very small. She didn't know too many people at all.
At the same time, she knew very well that the main point of this party was not her birthday, but her engagement.
The beautiful MC immediately continued, smiling as she said, "As everyone knows, our Princess Su 'Er is very shy and delicate, and she's not very good at speaking. However, I'm sure everyone can feel her excitement and gratitude …"
Su 'Er didn't hear a single word the MC said. She secretly looked around the hall again and again. After looking around many times, the light in her eyes completely dimmed … she wanted that person to appear, but she knew that he shouldn't and couldn't appear. At the same time, she was afraid that he would appear … these conflicting feelings had been in her heart for a very long time, and finally turned into complete disappointment.
Big brother Ling Tian, you have to protect yourself. Your safety is my greatest wish …
However …
However …
"Princess Su 'Er, seeing that you've finally grown to 16 years old, your family must be very happy. Your father raised you for 16 years and gave a lot. He's the Mayor Su that everyone looks up to, but behind all the glory, he's first and foremost a great father. Today, you're 16 years old, so you must have a lot to say to your father, right? "
"…"
"And your mother … although she's not your birth mother, she's treated you like her own all these years. She's loved you more than anything else. For you, she's shed countless tears and sweat. Right now, what do you want to say to your mother?"
"…"
"Your uncle, he's the respected Leader Su, but almost everyone in Hua Xia knows that he only shows the warmest smile in front of his niece. Leader Su doesn't have a son, and has always treated you like his own daughter. I'm sure you have a lot to say to him, right? "
"…"
"And …"
… …
… …
The birthday party went according to plan. Su 'Er responded like a puppet. She didn't speak much, and didn't show much emotion. However, people didn't find this strange. Those who knew the Su family well knew that there was only one Su 'Er in this generation. When Su 'Er was 6 years old, she had just established a close relationship with her mother. When she needed her mother the most, her mother, Murong Lan, passed away. This was a huge blow to her, and had a huge impact on her personality. When Su 'Er was 10 years old, Su Hong Cheng married Murong Lan's younger sister, who was also Su' Er's aunt, Murong Xiu. Murong Xiu treated Su 'Er like her own daughter and did everything a mother should do. However, no matter how good she was, she was still a stepmother. Su 'Er was close to her, but even now, she still called her' aunt 'and rarely called her' mother '.
Thus, even though she was born in a rich family like the Su family, people rarely saw Su 'Er. If Su 'Er was very active today, people would be surprised.
Ling Chen kept looking at Su 'Er, but Su' Er couldn't see him. His current face was worlds apart from his original face, and even his body shape was different by at least one size. Seeing Su 'Er at a loss, his heart ached, and he silently said in his heart … Su Su, I'm here. So, whatever you don't want to happen, it definitely won't happen! Even if all of your family is willing, I will … completely destroy them!
By now, Ling Chen could clearly see everyone in the hall. Most of them were unfamiliar faces, but the familiar ones all caught Ling Chen's attention.
Xuanyuan Xue Yi was here, and today's topic was the engagement. So, how could his father, Xuanyuan Sheng, not be here?
Xuanyuan Sheng sat in the corner of the front row, his right arm barely moving. Even when it moved a few times, it looked very unnatural. Ling Chen coldly laughed … That night, he had paid the price of Xuanyuan Sheng's full strength slash and ripped off Xuanyuan Sheng's right arm. He had ripped it off! The process of ripping off the skin, flesh, bones, tendons, nerves, and blood vessels were all ripped off. The pain was simply indescribable, and it was at least 10 times more painful than being cut off with a knife! Although the medical technology for reattaching severed arms was perfect, with his tearing technique, Xuanyuan Sheng would never be able to use his right arm again.
There was also another person, Murong Xiong Tian. He was the commander of the seven secret forces, and one of Long Zheng Yang's two most powerful guards. That night, he had been beaten up by Ling Chen to the point of bleeding from his seven orifices. However, his body was incredibly strong, and there were no signs of him suffering from any side effects. He was Murong Xiu's older brother, and Su 'Er's uncle, so it wasn't strange for him to be here today.
"Haha …" Ling Chen coldly laughed to himself. Even if the Heavenly Emperor was here today, he would definitely cripple Xuanyuan Xue Yi!
The birthday banquet began with the gift-giving and congratulatory gifts. Of course, the birthday gift for the princess of the Su Family could not be an ordinary one. One after another, a dazzling array of rare treasures was given out, along with a variety of simple and complicated congratulatory words. Chao Ying and Chao Xi also gave out their birthday gifts. It was a piece of Sea Heart Jade that could nourish one's skin and was worth more than a million. With the Li family's wealth, it wasn't difficult for them to give out such a gift. Of course, the most important reason why the gifts were so expensive was because Li Xiao Xue knew about the relationship between Ling Chen and Su 'Er.
A 2 metre tall cake was brought onto the stage, and there were many unlit candles on it. The beautiful MC said in high spirits, "Before we light the candles and allow our Princess Su 'Er to make a beautiful wish, our beloved Mayor Su has something important to announce. This will make this birthday banquet one of the most unforgettable memories in Princess Su' Er's life … please welcome our beloved Mayor Su 'Er."
Applause sounded out as Su Hong Cheng walked onto the stage with a face full of smiles. Everyone had a tacit smile on their faces. Everyone was well aware of what Su Hong Cheng was going to announce. What he was going to announce was the true purpose of this banquet.
Ling Chen, who was standing behind Chao Ying and Chao Xi, didn't say anything as he walked away with a stiff expression on his face. Chao Ying and Chao Xi didn't look back, as if they didn't know that he was leaving. As a 'bodyguard', no one would pay attention to his movements. A few people subconsciously glanced at him, but when they saw him walking towards the washroom, they didn't give him a second glance.
After entering the washroom, Ling Chen locked the door and wiped his face with his hand, returning to his original appearance. He then took off his black suit and put it back on, turning it into a proper white suit. He flipped his pants over, turning them into a pair of white trousers. He bent down and pulled on his shoes, taking off a layer of black material … even his shoes turned white.
Finally, he put on a baseball cap that did not match his outfit. He pulled down the brim of the cap and walked out unhurriedly.
