Chapter 298: Chapter 297 Why Did You Break Off the Engagement?

Ying’er changed into a new dress and, with a hand on Su Yang’s arm, stood beaming at his side as if she were his girlfriend. Radiant and supremely beautiful, she left everyone genuinely astounded!

"What... What’s going on?" From a distance, the third uncle was also dumbfounded. "How come they’re standing together? And so affectionately?"

"Wasn’t Ying’er here to meet a friend? What... what’s this all about?" The second aunt was also completely bewildered.

Fang Cui snorted coldly and said, "You still don’t know? Ying’er’s friend is none other than Su Yang!"

"Ah?" The two nearly jumped up. What in the world was going on? Had they seen a ghost? How had Su Yang, a person of such low status... when had he made such a friend?

Unmatched in beauty, a double prodigy in talent and art, with a renowned reputation and a distinguished family background, Ying’er was simply the epitome of the perfect girlfriend!

But why, of all people, had she chosen Su Yang?

The third uncle couldn’t figure it out, the second aunt couldn’t figure it out, and just the same, the uncle and aunt in the front couldn’t make sense of it either.

Watching Su Yang standing next to Ying’er, all four of them racked their brains but still couldn’t understand what was happening.

However, there stood Ying’er, right beside Su Yang, accompanying the newlyweds, and walked straight to one of the tables.

The people seated nearby at this table were all CEOs of major companies in the province, each of them influential and well-respected figures.

Yet, when Su Yang arrived, they immediately stood up, displaying faces full of respect.

One of them was from Nan Biancheng, who smiled and said, "Master Su, let me introduce you. This is the CEO of Prosperity Corporation, Wang Xingye!"

"Master Su, meeting you is truly an honor! I’ll drink to that, you do as you wish!" Wang Xingye picked up his glass and drained it in one gulp.

"Hmm!" Su Yang nodded indifferently, not even touching his drink. But to Wang Xingye, this nod was thrilling, as if he felt honored by just this gesture from Su Yang.

Nan Biancheng continued the introductions all the way down the table. Each person there was no simple character. Whether in wealth or in power, they were figures that Zhao Xuefen’s uncles and aunts would have to look up to all their lives.

Yet, Su Yang merely held a glass of wine, without even touching it to his lips, and these people were all showing faces full of honor.

With Nan Biancheng’s accompaniment, they went from table to table. It was clear that the main focus of these people was not on the newlyweds but entirely on Su Yang.

However, because of Su Yang’s presence, they were also extremely complimentary to the newlyweds.

In actuality, for such a wedding, Su Yang had not planned to follow the bride and groom to offer toasts. He was well aware that his presence would overshadow the newlyweds.

But on this occasion, he had to come out. These people were all here for him; if he didn’t make an appearance, wouldn’t their trip be in vain?

Moreover, he needed to leave some paths open for Zhao Tao. By accompanying Zhao Tao to toast, these people would also get to know Zhao Tao. Whatever Zhao Tao did in the future would go very smoothly, and this was Su Yang paving the road for his brother’s future!

As they made their way, they soon reached the table where Zhao Xuefen sat.

Everyone at the table stood up, except for Su Ping and Zhao Xuefen, who remained seated.

Hearing those around them addressing him as "Master Su" and expressing their trembling honors, the uncle and aunt’s complexions turned red. They simply could not wrap their heads around the kind of person they had encountered.

However, Su Yang’s gaze didn’t linger on them for even a moment. These people, in his view, were nothing!

Finally, Su Yang arrived at the table where Lin Ze Ping was sitting, which was mainly occupied by some wealthy businessmen from Nanluo City.

These businessmen all got up to toast Su Yang, who nodded slightly to each one as he passed by, until his eyes finally settled on Lin Ze Ping. This man was, after all, an elder that Su Yang deeply respected.

"Uncle Lin!" Su Yang said softly.

Lin Ze Ping forced a smile: "Xiao Yang, the wedding is well organized; you’ve worked hard!"

"He organized it?" Both the second aunt and the third uncle were astonished; they still hadn’t figured out the situation. Weren’t these people invited by Zhao Old Qi?

"I didn’t do much!" Su Yang laughed: "It was mainly my friends who helped!"

"If it weren’t for your influence, how would these people have come?" Lin Ze Ping laughed, picked up his glass, and said, "Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Let’s have a drink, father and son. When you have time, come have a drink with Uncle Lin, eh!"

"Sure!" Su Yang smiled lightly and drained his glass in one go.

After Su Yang and the others left, the second aunt and third uncle were still confused. It took a while before the third uncle came to his senses, leaned close to Lin Ze Ping, and asked in a low voice, "Boss Lin, what’s going on? Did... did Su Yang arrange this wedding?"

Lin Ze Ping ignored him, and Fang Cui said mockingly at his side: "What, you still don’t know? These people, they all came for Su Yang!"

"What?" The third uncle was flabbergasted: "You mean all these people came for Su Yang? It seems to me that there are some people Su Yang doesn’t even know!"

"Of course, he doesn’t know them!" Fang Cui said: "But just one word from him is enough. With just one word, the wealthy people in Pingnan Province were scrambling to get here. Didn’t you know? Last night Su Yang made a few calls, and then all these people came. Because of their arrival, several expressways in Nanluo City were completely jammed. Haven’t you heard about it?"

The third uncle was dumbstruck; he knew about the traffic jams, but he hadn’t realized what was behind them. Now, he finally understood the situation!

Thinking back to what Su Yang had said last night, that they should find cars elsewhere quickly, or they wouldn’t have any cars available.

Before, they had mocked Su Yang as if he had gone mad, but now they finally realized that Su Yang was just stating a fact!

And thinking back to Zhao Xuefen arranging for their stay at the city hospital’s guesthouse, and the previous matters of making the second uncle’s relatives stay at their home. They suddenly discovered that Zhao Xuefen’s home was no longer the one they had known before; it had far exceeded the limits of their imagination!

At his command, the wealthy of Pingnan Province were all stirred; such was the astonishing power of his call!

This Su Yang, when did he become so incredible?

"Weren’t you looking for Ying’er’s autograph?" Fang Cui sneered: "Go to Su Yang. Didn’t you see how close Ying’er is to him? Just say the word to Su Yang, and it wouldn’t be just an autograph—she’d run over to take a photo with your daughter without a problem!"

The second aunt was dumbstruck; now, how could she have the face to approach Su Yang? During this time, she had ridiculed Su Yang a great deal!

Suddenly remembering something, the third uncle turned sharply to Lin Ze Ping and Fang Cui: "No, wait, if Su Yang has become so successful, why would you break off the engagement?"

The question froze the sneer on Fang Cui’s face, plunging her into a silence as still as death!

Indeed, with Su Yang doing so well, why break off the engagement?

Watching the scene of Su Yang being surrounded by those big shots, Fang Cui really felt like slapping herself to death!
