Chapter 915: Isn’t the One Embarra.s.sing Himself the Sc.u.mbag?
Old Master Lin received Mu Qiqi’s signal and pushed his daughter away. He walked from the guest seats to the white carpet. At this moment, Old Master Lin’s att.i.tude toward the matter was extremely important.
“I’m really sorry everyone. Today, I, Lin, have embarra.s.sed myself here.
“A good engagement ceremony has been ruined. On behalf of my grandson and granddaughter-in-law, I apologize to everyone.”
Upon hearing the word ‘granddaughter-in-law’, Mu Qiqi heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that Old Master Lin had acknowledged Lu Qianqian.
“Actually, a few days ago, the president of Yashang Group, Mr. Song, hinted to me many times in the open and in the dark. He wanted me to misunderstand that my granddaughter-in-law, Lu Qianqian, had an unknown relations.h.i.+p with another man.
“In fact, I’ve wanted to ask him for a long time. Who do you think you are? Are you in charge of my family’s affairs? If you have the ability, come out and s.n.a.t.c.h the marriage right in front of me. I might even respect you as a man then.
“I, Lin, have been in the military all my life. I have never liked any unorthodox methods. What I understand is that Mr. Song likes my granddaughter-in-law, but he can’t love her. That’s why he wants to cause trouble at my granddaughter-in-law and grandson’s engagement party.
“If you really like her, you should fight openly with my grandson and not do some shady things behind his back. His actions are really looked down upon.
“Photos? Miss Shen has already cleared up the matter for my granddaughter-in-law. I hope that everyone will not misunderstand my granddaughter-in-law’s character. I also hope that Mr. Song can respect himself and not be so shameless that he has to pursue women to such an extent. It shows just how dirty and dark the business culture of his Yashang Group is.
“Since today is my grandson and granddaughter-in-law’s engagement party, as their grandfather, I also hope that they can continue to work together in the future without fear of any difficulties. Especially in the face of those wolves, tigers, and leopards, there’s no need to be polite.”
Lu Qianqian looked at Old Master Lin, Mama Lu, and Mu Qiqi, who were blocking her way, and couldn’t help but shed tears.
She could understand why her mother and Qiqi would completely believe in her. But for the old man to actually stand by her?
Lin Mu’an smiled when he saw her reddened eyes. “Are you stupid?”
“You’re the one who’s stupid. I’m touched. I really didn’t expect your grandfather…”
“I didn’t expect it either.”
Hence, he remembered what his aunt said last night. Don’t underestimate the old man.
Indeed, he wouldn’t dare to underestimate him in the future.
“I hope everyone can treat what happened just now as a small interlude and let things go. I believe that the young couple will cherish their feelings even more after experiencing storms and waves.
“There will be a sumptuous lunch waiting for everyone. I hope everyone can enjoy it to their heart’s content.”
Now, everyone knew that Song Bozhi from Yashang Group liked the young miss of the Lu family and couldn’t get what he wanted. He had done despicable things. As there were many important figures in Jianchuan and rich people involved in education and finance, after hearing about these things, how could they work with him nowi?
The old man was right. A leader represented the corporate culture. If Song Bozhi was such a despicable person, then they wouldn’t bother to work with such a leader. No, he wasn’t fit to be a person.
This was the original intention of the old man. He wanted everyone to think that Song Bozhi wanted and begged for Lu Qianqian but failed. He didn’t want to show the enmity between the Shen family and the Song family. It wasn’t good for anyone.
Soon after, the guests went to the restaurant for the luncheon. Lu Qianqian gently hugged Mu Qiqi and Mama Lu and walked up to Old Master Lin.
“Grandfather, I’m sorry. Also, thank you.”
“It’s not your fault,” Old Master Lin replied. “Although I doubted you, deep down, I’m more willing to trust you.”
“You and that brat have been through so much. It’s all thanks to you that he has matured so. I believe that only a positive person can make a person become optimistic and brave.
“So, don’t be afraid in the future. If there’s anything, you can explain it to me. I will definitely believe you.”
“Yes, I just feel that I’ve embarra.s.sed you.”
“How am I embarra.s.sed? Isn’t the one who’s embarra.s.sing himself the sc.u.mbag?” Old Master Lin softened his expression and smiled. “My move to divert the trouble isn’t bad, right?”
“I’m going to be scared to death by you!” Old Master Shen walked over and patted his old friend’s shoulder. “I was almost afraid that you wouldn’t be able to hold on and fall down. And it’ll be all because of the Shen family.”
“We’ve been good friends for decades. Why are you still talking about this? The enmity between the Shen family and the Song family shouldn’t be put on the table. If you have any debts, you can settle them slowly in the future.”
The two elders chatted and laughed as they headed to the banquet hall together.
Seeing this, Mama Lu also let out a sigh of relief. “In the future, you’ll be blessed. Let’s go and thank the guests.”
“Mommy, today, you’re like a giant.”
“You don’t have a father, but mommy can’t let you get bullied.” Mama Lu ruffled Lu Qianqian’s hair. “Silly child, Xiao Qi is still angry because she’s pregnant.”
“I know. You both love me.”
“Let’s go.” Lin Mu’an hugged the two of them, one on each side. “Today is perfect.”
On the stage, Sheng Xiao walked over and hugged his little one. However, he felt that her expression was not right.
“Master Xiao, I haven’t gotten my revenge yet because I didn’t humiliate that sc.u.m in front of everyone.”
“I’ll give you a chance,” Sheng Xiao answered without thinking. “But you have to listen to me obediently for two days.”
“Are you serious?” Mu Qiqi’s eyes immediately lit up.
“In two days, there will be an education lecture at Ashang. Song Bozhi will be attending the lecture to tell us about his entrepreneurial history.”
“He’s trash and yet he’s in the education field. I feel ashamed for him.” Mu Qiqi snorted. “Then, get me tickets. I’m going to settle the score.”
“He didn’t dare to show himself today. He only knows how to play dirty tricks behind our backs. I want to face him head-on.”
“Don’t go too far.” Sheng Xiao pinched her nose as he instructed her, but his eyes were filled with indulgence.
If he didn’t let her vent, wouldn’t that be harmful to a pregnant woman’s body and mind?
Moreover, he had already let the Song family be arrogant for too long.
Xu Che took the opportunity to send the two accomplices to the police station. As for the media, as they had signed a confidentiality agreement, they couldn’t widely report what happened at the banquet hall today. They could only post photos of the newlyweds happily hugging each other.
The old man was not really embarra.s.sed.
In short, the main goal today was to drag the Lu and Lin families out of the Song and Shen family’s quagmire.
The old man had achieved his goal.
He had saved the Lin and Lu families’ face.
But did he think that was the end? Mu Qiqi secretly thought in her heart. Sc.u.mbag Song, wait for it. In two days, I will let you enjoy the same treatment Qianqian enjoyed today.
Trash should appear in the garbage heap, and be cast aside by people!
