Chapter 905: Chapter 904: What Kind of Celestial Love Is This?

Everyone present was stunned.

Especially Jiang Chaoge, who was gritting her teeth.

If Lin Hua hadn’t interfered, these jewels would have been hers.

Jiang Chaoge’s gaze was almost ablaze, with an urge to tear Lin Hua into pieces, but she held back given the occasion.

She knew her uncle and aunt from the Jiang Family were already displeased with her. If she acted impulsively, she would end up with nothing and would have to go abroad to seek refuge again.

Jiang Chaoge clenched her fists and suppressed her emotions.

Lu Heng, always aloof and quite cutting with his words, turned to her, "Why isn’t the bride you?"

Jiang Chaoge couldn’t respond.

Lu Heng smirked, his attention falling on the little brat.

Truly favored, the main characters were King Jingyao and Lin Hua, but it was Gu Anxi nestled in the grandma’s arms, treated like a beloved granddaughter.

Gu Anxi didn’t meet his gaze, focused only on her elder brother, watching him face the music.

However, Bo Xichen noticed Lu Heng’s unusually intense gaze, lowered his eyes, and smiled silently.

The scene was still bustling, despite the Jiang Family’s displeasure, they forced out some congratulatory words, which Old Wang graciously accepted, completely disregarding Jiang Chaoge and showing great respect for Lin Hua.

Later, the banquet continued, with the ladies quietly gossiping.

"In the end, Lin Hua is the one who got the last laugh."

"Who could say otherwise?"

"She’s indeed lucky... I’d say this kind of luck is innate, you can’t force it."

"Right, right, just looking at Lin Hua, she has a great presence, unlike some others who look mean and not blessed; seeing them today, I truly believe it."

...

Lin Hua’s mother sat in the center, surrounded by flattering attendees, yet she remained composed, unmoved by honor or disgrace.

Her gaze fell upon her daughter, who was engaging in conversation with the grandma. On the grandma’s left was Anxi, on the right was Lin Hua, talking about everyday matters, while King Jingyao accompanied them nearby.

Lin Hua’s mother’s eyes subtly reddened...

Over there, Grandma was particularly delighted, feeling content. With Lin Hua beside her, what more could she wish for?

In her joy, she shared some benefits with others as well, creating a festive atmosphere in the hall.

Except for the Jiang Family.

No matter their displeasure, the matter was settled; the lively affair went on until eleven at night, when it was time to disperse, King Jingyao finally couldn’t help but speak up: "The old lady has kept my wife for the whole evening, it’s time she returns to me."

Grandma laughed, "Such an eager demeanor. Well, you should discuss this with your mother-in-law, see if she agrees to let Lin Hua go with you."

King Jingyao chuckled, "I’ll ask Lin Hua."

Lin Hua naturally declined with grace, but no matter how she refused, she couldn’t resist Old Wang’s coaxing. She exchanged a few words with her mother before being taken away...

The black limousine drove off, followed by several others, speeding away.

Grandma watched the car disappear and said to the old gentleman: ’See, I told you not to worry, when he’s anxious he’ll act quickly.’

The old gentleman touched his nose, glancing at Gu Anxi.

Grandma nudged him, "Always thinking about playing chess, never considering the youngsters."

She calculated that Anxi and Xichen had been together for only a year, not like an old married couple yet, surely they couldn’t always hang around with us old folks?

Grandma tugged the old gentleman away too.

Gu Anxi looked at Uncle Bo, softly asking, "Uncle, have you been drinking?"

He chuckled, "Just a little."

"I’ll drive then." She opened the car door and got in, deftly buckling her seatbelt.

Bo Xichen turned his head, exchanged pleasantries with Lu Heng and Jiang Chaoge briefly, and then got into the car.

As soon as he sat down, the red Ferrari zoomed away...

Lu Heng frowned, "Are they always like this?"

Jiang Chaoge had lost a prime opportunity to marry into wealth, feeling disheartened, she wasn’t in the mood to notice Lu Heng’s thoughts, and casually replied, "They’ve always been like this, Gu Anxi even picks up Bo Xichen from work."

Lu Heng was surprised.

But soon, he squinted his eyes.

Truly unique.

Gu Anxi drove and stopped at a red light, turning to look at her uncle, "Uncle, what do you think?"

Professor Bo reclined against the seat back, resting his eyes, upon hearing her, he turned and smiled, "Think about what?"

As he spoke, he gently tugged her soft earlobe, leaving the little darling slightly embarrassed, "I’m talking about elder brother and Lin Hua."

Professor Bo adjusted his posture, still smiling, "Calling him elder brother again, I thought you were at odds with him."

Gu Anxi pouted, "I’m not as petty as he is."

She urged again, "I’m asking you, Uncle."

Bo Xichen chuckled, finally speaking, "King Jingyao made the normal choice any man would make."

He thought, perhaps what Anxi said the other day had an impact; otherwise, with King Jingyao’s personality, he wouldn’t have acted so swiftly, but it’s clear from his haste that he really values Lin Hua, hence quickly clearing things with Jiang Chaoge.

As he thought about it, the little darling nodded in agreement and added, "But Jiang Chaoge is probably furious."

Bo Xichen just smiled.

"Then, does he not want Jiang Chaoge’s projects anymore?" Gu Anxi probed cautiously.

Uncle Bo looked ahead, after a moment he said, "Do you think your elder brother is that foolish? Otherwise, why would Jingchuan be staying with you? He’s someone King Jingyao is used to handling."

Gu Anxi pressed the gas pedal, speaking indifferently, "Welcoming gods is easy, seeing them off is hard; until Jiang’s matters are exposed, he won’t leave."

Bo Xichen laughed, "Weren’t you using him to pull several projects?"

Gu Anxi huffed softly, ’I already gave them to An Pu, it’s my own money.’

Uncle’s money is her money, her money is her money too.

Uncle Bo shook his head, glanced at her, then reclined again as if to rest, seeing the little darling’s concern.

Just as her concern persisted, he softly said, "Stay away from Lu Heng in the future! Also, I have things to ask you when we get home."
