5. Chapter 5
She never dreamed that he would agree so easily, and most of the principles she had prepared were not used. It felt like she had worked in vain, but she was also relieved that giving up her freedom was already a tragic thing, and she did not want to devote her body and mind to the marriage anymore.
This was the best solution she came up with, and it was rare that Lin Chutian also supported it.
She gave him a grateful smile, this time from the bottom of her heart.
As if Lin Chutian didn't notice, he leaned lazily on the back of the chair and said casually, "There is a banquet tonight. You will accompany me to it as my fiancée!"
"The first floor of the Rose Hotel!" It seemed like a casual statement, but it was an order that could not be refused. "It is necessary to let all the good uncles in the business world know about the marriage!"
Ye Ruling nodded cooperatively. Some things require mutual benefit, she understands.
"You said Chutian would come tonight?" This news, which was nothing special in Ye Ruling's eyes, was relayed home and became more important than a nuclear war.
The word "surprise" was written big on the mother's face, "Since Chu Tian is coming, I will prepare a table of the most sumptuous home-cooked dishes for you, and open two bottles of red wine at the same time. The atmosphere will become warm and romantic!"
"Mom..." Ye Ruling didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "He just came to pick me up for the banquet, and he might not even come in. Don't waste your work!"
Father Ye, who was watering the flowers by the window sill, heard the word "banquet" and turned around and asked, "Whose banquet?"
"It's Uncle Chen celebrating her daughter's birthday..."
Father Ye forced out a wry smile, looking more and more embarrassed. Ye Ruling hurriedly tried to smooth things over for her father, "It's not an important matter. I heard that not many people were invited..."
"You don't need to comfort me. Although I am old, I am not confused yet. I understand in my heart..."
In the past, if there was such a banquet, Ye's father would be invited. In addition, he liked to make friends, so he often went out to entertain.
Ever since the Ye family had problems, all of their so-called friends have avoided the Ye family, let alone invitations.
Although Ye's father saw through the hypocrisy of those people, he also felt sad because this Uncle Chen was one of his best friends at that time. His current status was largely due to Ye's father's treatment of him.
With help, now that he has turned his back and refuses to recognize anyone, how can Father Ye not be heartbroken.
This is also the reason why Ye Ruling is willing to accompany Lin Chutian to attend the banquet. She wants to show those uncles who look down on others that her Ye family will one day make a comeback.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Bai Yu couldn't bear her husband to recall those sad things anymore, so she quickly changed the subject, "As Chu Tian's female companion, she must be more beautiful than anyone else. I'll help Xiao Ling dress up~"
Bai Yu was a well-known fashion designer when she was young. It was only later that she met her father that she was willing to support her husband and raise children at home. She used to arrange all the outfits for a family of three attending banquets, and Ye Ruling also believed in her vision.
She was pushed upstairs by Bai Yu. From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of her father watering the flowers and sighing at the windowsill. Ye Ruling secretly swore that tonight, those who add insult to injury would be slapped in the face!
Although there were still a few hours before the banquet started, Bai Yu was impatient and demanded perfection. She dragged Ye Ruling to pick out clothes in the dressing room for an hour. The next makeup and small accessories took a lot of time, all of which
