Chapter 17 Lin Family Birthday Banquet
Mrs. Lin’s 50th birthday party was organized by Zhao Yu.
That night, the guest list for the banquet had been basically finalized and the invitations had been sent out one by one, except for one invitation that was still pending.
Faced with such an important birthday celebration for Mrs. Lin, Zhao Yu felt very difficult about whether he should invite Ye Wanqing.
Although Zhao Yu was just an outsider, he could also clearly feel Mrs. Lin's preference for Ye Wanqing.
However, Ye Wanqing and Lin Xuan's marriage has come to an end. Zhao Yu has no idea whether he should send the invitation to Ye Wanqing, and if so, whether she will attend. He can only leave this difficult issue to Lin Xuan to decide.
"Mr. Lin."
Zhao Yu stood in front of Lin Xuan's desk, feeling a little uneasy.
Lin Xuan raised his head and looked at Zhao Yu coldly: "What's the matter?"
"Regarding Madam's birthday party, should we invite Miss Ye to attend?" Zhao Yu asked cautiously.
Hearing the mention of Mrs. Lin, Lin Xuan's brows frowned slightly: "Hmm."
Zhao Yu nodded immediately: "Okay, I will arrange for someone to deliver the invitation letter to Miss Ye right away."
"Wait a minute..." Lin Xuan's voice was calm.
Zhao Yu stopped and looked at Lin Xuan doubtfully: "Mr. Lin, are you going to personally deliver the invitation to Miss Ye?"
"Do you have any objections?" Lin Xuan's question left Zhao Yu speechless.
How could Zhao Yu dare to raise any objection? Not only did he not raise any objection, he was secretly happy in his heart.
Since Lin Xuan came personally, Ye Wanqing should give him some face. If Mrs. Lin saw Ye Wanqing, she would surely be very pleased.
Fearing that Lin Xuan would change his mind, Zhao Yu quickly placed the invitation on the table and hurriedly left the office.
Lin Xuan picked up the invitation letter. There was no warmth on his face, and he seemed to be unwilling to accept it. He slowly wrote the words "Ms. Ye Wanqing" in the inviter column with a pen.
Ye Wanqing had been staying indoors in her small villa for five or six days. The food at home was getting less and less. Finally, she decided to change into outdoor clothes and prepare to go out to buy some ingredients.
Last night, snowflakes drifted gently down, covering the dead branches in the yard. Looking from the balcony, the whole yard was covered in silver, appearing exceptionally peaceful and beautiful.
Ye Wanqing stopped for a moment, admiring this unique winter scenery, and then turned back to the warm room.
After standing outside for a while, her hands felt cold, so she picked up the hand warmer on the sofa and slowly walked to the kitchen, intending to cook a pot of porridge for dinner.
Just as she put down the hand warmer and was about to start cooking, the doorbell rang. Ye Wanqing was slightly startled, picked up the hand warmer again, put on her thick slippers, and walked downstairs slowly.
Opening the door, Ye Wanqing was a little surprised to see Lin Xuan standing outside: "Mr. Lin?"
Mr. Lin? This title instantly sent a chill through Lin Xuan's heart. Not long ago, she had been calling him by his first name intimately, but now it had become such a polite "Mr. Lin."
He couldn't help but sneer in his heart. The distance was widening so quickly.
Lin Xuan's face was cold as he handed her the invitation letter in his hand and said in a cold tone:
"Mother is about to celebrate her fiftieth birthday. If it's convenient for you, please come and attend. She should be happy to see you."
Ye Wanqing lowered her head and glanced at the invitation in his hand. Her eyebrows moved slightly and she responded softly, "Well, thank you."
She took the invitation, flipped it open and took a look. Then she looked up and found Lin Xuan still standing there. She was slightly startled: "Is there anything else?"
When Lin Xuan heard her words, his already stern expression became even gloomier.
He braved the wind and snow to personally deliver the invitation, but she just said "thank you" lightly, and even omitted the most basic courtesy of inviting him into the house.
The dissatisfaction and disappointment in his heart made his tone even colder: "It's okay."
After saying that, Lin Xuan turned around and prepared to leave with a lot of emotions.
However, Lin Xuan only took a few steps towards the door before he suddenly stopped. He turned back to look at Ye Wanqing, who was about to close the door, and the inexplicable emotion in his chest burned like a raging fire, rushing straight to his head.
His facial expression was stiff, and his eyes were fixed coldly on Ye Wanqing: "We no longer have any relationship. You don't need to go out of your way to please my mother. If you don't want to come to this birthday party, it's okay."
Ye Wanqing's expression was as calm as water. She replied calmly, "I understand."
As soon as she finished speaking, she gently closed the door, opened her umbrella, and slowly walked back to the villa.
Lin Xuan stood outside the door, his eyes closely following Ye Wanqing's back until her figure disappeared at the door of the villa. He unconsciously increased the strength in his hands, and the blue veins on the back of his hands bulged clearly.
Only after Ye Wanqing's figure completely disappeared from his sight did Lin Xuan turn around and return to the car with a mixed feeling in his heart. His mind kept replaying Ye Wanqing's indifferent eyes, and the dissatisfaction in his heart surged like a tide.
He fumbled out his cigarette case, took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep puff.
The car window was slightly open, and cold wind mixed with snowflakes blew into the car. Lin Xuan let the smoke stay in his lungs for a moment, then started the car and slowly drove away from Ye Wanqing's villa.
Mrs. Lin's fiftieth birthday banquet was so grand that it attracted almost all the influential people in the capital to come and congratulate her.
Even those who were not closely related to the Lin family tried their best to come and participate, hoping to use this opportunity to get closer to the Lin family.
Distinguished guests from other places who had business dealings with the Lin family traveled long distances to celebrate Mrs. Lin's birthday.
Ye Wanqing arrived at the banquet venue driving the bright red supercar. Such an eye-catching vehicle immediately became the focus of everyone's attention as soon as it drove into the hotel gate.
She took out the car keys, picked up the carefully prepared gift box from the car, then gracefully opened the door and stepped out of the car.
The lights in the banquet hall were soft and dim. At first, no one recognized Ye Wanqing. They only saw a woman in a pink dress with a light gauze scarf draped over her shoulders, walking slowly and gracefully towards the venue.
Obviously, she dressed up carefully today, with her hair gently tied up. Although her makeup was light, the bright red on her lips made her facial features look even more charming and beautiful.
She walked into the banquet hall gracefully with a gift in hand, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.
"Who is this beauty? This dress looks so charming on her!"
"That's Ye Wanqing! Lin Xuan's ex-wife! Why is she here?"
Whispers rose and fell all around, but Ye Wanqing seemed unaffected. She walked step by step into the depths of the venue in her high heels.
At this time, Lin Xuan, who was busy receiving guests, also noticed her arrival.
Although Lin Xuan felt unhappy about Ye Wanqing, he had to admit that Ye Wanqing's beauty was indeed a work of nature.
She was wearing a pink dress and had an elegant posture. Her bright face looked even more noble because of her indifferent eyes, which blended perfectly with the charm of the dress. Not only was she not tacky, but she looked more noble.
He originally thought that Ye Wanqing would not attend the birthday party, but he didn't expect that she not only came but also brought gifts.
Lin Xuan sneered in his heart. It seemed that her refusal that day was just a pretense.
If she really didn't care about him, why would she go to such great lengths and endure all the criticism she faced just to win his mother's favor? Did she really think he couldn't see through her intentions?
Lin Xuan put away his complicated look, turned to Zhao Yu who was standing beside him and said, "Zhao Yu, take Ye Wanqing to see my mother."
Zhao Yu nodded in agreement, quickly walked to Ye Wanqing, and politely called her, "Miss Ye."
Upon seeing Ye Wanqing, Zhao Yu couldn't help but be attracted by her beauty and was briefly distracted. Ye Wanqing remained calm and said with a smile, "This is a gift for Madam Lin."
Zhao Yu quickly recovered and continued, "Since this is a gift for Madam Lin, it would be most appropriate for Miss Ye to hand it over to Madam Lin personally."
Ye Wanqing thought for a moment and asked, "Where is Madam Lin?"
Although her marriage with Lin Xuan had ended, she had been the daughter-in-law of the Lin family for six years after all. Although Mrs. Lin was somewhat dissatisfied with her, she had never been overly harsh on her.
Today is Mrs. Lin’s 50th birthday. Ye Wanqing thinks her arrival is justified, otherwise it would seem too cold and heartless.
"Ms. Ye, please follow me." Zhao Yu said.
Ye Wanqing nodded slightly and followed Zhao Yu upstairs.
Not far away, Xu Xinyi saw Ye Wanqing appear, and her face immediately turned a little ugly. She was secretly surprised, why did Ye Wanqing appear here?
