Chapter 2: She’s Back

After the butler left, a ringtone rang.

Picking up his phone, seeing it was his grandfather, Zhan Jingting pulled himself back from his thoughts, his long fingers swiping to answer. “Hello, Grandpa.”

“Another month has passed, have you found a girlfriend yet?” The old man seemed to have lost his patience, issuing him an ultimatum.

“If you can’t find one yourself, when Qianxue returns to China, you’ll just have to marry her first, then fall in love! This is a major life event, it’s time to put it on the agenda, get married first, then start a career, this is the family tradition.”

Another marriage proposal!

Zhan Jingting, as usual, just gave a few perfunctory replies.

Before hanging up, the old man instructed, “By the way, the Shu family and the Lin family will be having a wedding for their union in a few days, you go attend for me, Grandpa has something to do and can’t make it.”

“The Shu family? The Lin family?” What Shu family, Lin family? Zhan Jingting had never heard of them.

The old man said, “I’ve sent the time and location to your WeChat.”

He didn’t ask any further, he had to complete the tasks assigned by his grandfather.

In Yincheng, only the Zhan family, the Jun family, the Ji family, and the Jiang family were considered the four major families that Zhan Jingting was familiar with, financial giants, the rest were small fry.

•  

Victoria, Canada, serene and beautiful.

On the second floor of a villa, Lin Banxia, wearing a French dress, stood by the window with her arms crossed, her pretty face clouded with uncertainty, because she had just accidentally seen a news article.

Yang Yiming, the head of the Lin family in Yincheng, was seeking medical treatment for Ming Shu, the butler who was seriously ill, at great expense! This act of loyalty had earned him praise from countless people.

And a photo of Ming Shu sitting in a wheelchair, dressed neatly, but looking gaunt, was released!

Lin Banxia stared at the photo, her memory quickly flashing back to six years ago.

Ming Shu took her from the Lin family’s mansion, they were beaten down by a group of people… blood flowed freely.

Now they’re saying this injury is a serious illness? Who would believe that?

However, Ming Shu was still alive, which made Lin Banxia very happy!

Over the past six years, Yang Yiming had been ambitious, but he had never dared to change the Lin family to the Yang family, and he had also gained a reputation for being a filial son! It is said that the outside world has a good evaluation of this person.

“Banxia.” An Yu knew that this matter could not be concealed, she came to her side, “Actually, the news has been circulating abroad for half a month.”

Lin Banxia blinked away the tears in her eyes, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” There was no blame in her tone.

“…” An Yu was silent, it was out of concern.

Lin Banxia immediately decided, “I’m going back to Yincheng, it’s time to get revenge.”

“Mommy!!” At this time, the door was pushed open.

Two adorable little meat buns rushed in, “Mommy, what did you just say? Are we going back to our country?”

The little ones were very excited, “Mommy! Can we see Daddy when we go back?”

As soon as the children appeared, Lin Banxia immediately turned to a smile, squatting down and hugging them into her arms, “Good, there are monsters in Yincheng, Mommy will come back to pick you up after I defeat the monsters!”

“Mommy, aren’t you taking us with you?” The little one was very depressed.

Another little one also frowned, “But Mommy…”

“Be good!” Lin Banxia’s tone became heavy, and the children dared not speak again. She had no time to waste, she had to return to her country immediately and save Uncle Ming!

An Yu knew that not taking the children was a form of protection, after all, they had almost died together back then.

After settling the children, as Lin Banxia was packing her bags to leave, An Yu reminded her, “Banxia, the news about finding a doctor for the housekeeper has spread all over the world, and this advertising campaign is also a huge expense.”

“So Yang Eiming is willing to do anything to lure me back, this time, I will definitely let him have his way.” The kind Lin Banxia would never forget what happened six years ago.

Soon, a plane took off from Victoria International Airport, heading straight for Yincheng International Airport.

Six years, this woman has been reborn.

Ten hours later, Yincheng International Airport, the sky was clear, and a flight landed.

Lin Banxia followed the crowd down the gangway, her feet stepped back on the land of Yincheng, facing the hometown wind blowing against her face, she looked up at the sky, a pang of pain in her heart.

Arriving in front of the house where her grandparents had lived, the former prosperity was gone, the laughter and joy were all gone, amidst the ashes, the remnants of the building that had not been completely burned six years ago remained.

This desolation overlapped with the sea of fire in her memory, it was extremely heartbreaking.

The tragic scene was vivid in her mind, she bent her knees, knelt down, and kowtowed three times towards the ashes.

“Grandpa, Grandma, Banxia is unfilial, I will definitely avenge you.” Tears blurred her vision, she hated herself for being powerless that day.

On this day, she also learned from the news, unexpectedly, a piece of news –

The Lin and Shu families were getting married, Shu family’s only son, will marry the Lin family’s only daughter, Lin Yiyao, the day after tomorrow.

Seeing the words “only daughter” of the Lin family, Lin Banxia smiled, “Interesting, it seems I need to prepare, and send a big gift.”

Soon, on the day of the wedding, in the old Yincheng church.

The Lin and Shu families were getting married, it was a grand event, many media were invited, the wedding cost hundreds of thousands, and it would be broadcast live.

In the parking lot of the church, luxury cars were everywhere, guests arrived one after another, the limited edition Lamborghini was particularly eye-catching.

The appearance of Jun Sheng Group President Zhan Jingting caused a frenzy and astonishment, his limelight overshadowed the newlyweds.

“Wow, it’s Mr. Zhan! Am I seeing things? It’s really Mr. Zhan!”

“Why is Mr. Zhan here?” Someone wondered, “The Zhan family is a top-tier family! How can the Shu and Lin families be worthy? They are not in the same circle at all.”

“So handsome! Even more handsome than in the newspaper!”

At this moment, someone chimed in, “I heard that Warlord Grandpa and Shu Grandpa know each other, so is Young Master Warlord here to attend the wedding on behalf of his grandfather? The two families shouldn’t have any business dealings.”

 Zhan Jingting, dressed in a black tailored suit, exuded an air of nobility and serenity, setting him apart from the crowd. Even standing discreetly in a corner, he was the most dazzling presence, attracting the attention of many women who were excitedly taking photos of him with their phones.

As the wedding march began, Lin Yiyao, adorned in a custom-made white wedding dress and a veil, walked towards the handsome man in a white suit, her arm linked with her father, Yang Yiming.

Wearing the cloak of the Lin family, Yang Yiming still maintained the image of a respectable and well-regarded son-in-law of the Lin family. He was now in charge of the entire Lin Group.

Lin Yiyao was willing to marry Shu Chengyun because she wanted to use the Shu family’s influence to solidify her position as the eldest daughter of the Lin family.

After all, her position was stolen.

The wedding march played a melodious tune, bringing joy to some and sorrow to others. Some people felt a constant twitch in their eyelids.

Just as the ceremony was about to end and the priest was about to pronounce the exchange of rings, the closed double doors were flung open.

“Wait!”

Everyone turned their heads at the sound, and a girl in a red dress appeared, radiating elegance and grace like a celestial being.

She walked in, her high heels clicking rhythmically, “How can I, the only daughter of the Lin family, not know about the marriage of the Lin family’s only daughter?”

The voice was familiar, the tone casual. Yang Yiming and his wife’s faces turned pale as they recognized the girl’s face.

Lin Banxia?

The girl’s gaze swept over Lin Yiyao, who was dressed in a wedding gown, “Who are you? What kind of imposter are you?”

The bride lifted her veil, her face flushed with embarrassment, but she was also stunned by the girl’s beauty.

Along with the guests,  Zhan Jingting was also shocked. Attending a wedding for his grandfather, he could also enjoy a good show?

 Zhan Jingting’s gaze also fell upon the girl in the red dress. Her features were exquisite, her cheeks were fair and delicate, and her entire being exuded an air of regal nobility and elegance.

The media reporters, eager to witness the drama unfold, raised their cameras and clicked away! At the same time, they also captured the nervousness and unease on the faces of Yang Yiming and his wife.
