Not a Surprise, but a Shock

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In addition, there were also friends of Old Master Song in the medical field. When they found out that Long Qin used a single punch to fix Cang Xiaolou's leg, they all wanted to take the opportunity at the banquet to discuss medical skills with Long Qin. Perhaps if they encountered the same case in the future, they would not have to amputate and could benefit the people.

Old Master Su was the first to arrive. He had not given up on the idea of letting one of his grandsons marry Long Qin. This time, he called Su Huo over. Su Huo avoided Long Qin like she was a fly. After the banquet began, he hid among the men, afraid that Long Qin would pester him.

The most eye-catching people in the entire banquet were Old Madam Cang and Cang Xiaolou. When the butler of the Song family reported the arrival of Old Madam Cang, the banquet hall was silent. People could not believe their ears.

After all, there was still a difference between wealthy families. For example, the Cang family had a noble status. It was impossible for them to participate in a banquet for second-tier wealthy families like the Song family. The so-called rich people in the banquet hall were nothing in comparison to the Cang family.

Someone asked in a low voice, "Hasn't the news about Cang Xu marrying Long Qin been suppressed a few days ago?"

The news had only been out for a day, but it had been deleted completely. It must have been suppressed by the Cang family, so the netizens felt that it was Long Qin who deliberately put it out there for hype.

Someone was puzzled. "Since Long Qin created the hype, why are Old Madam Cang and the little young master of the Cang family still attending the banquet? That's the young master of the Cang family, Cang Xiaolou, right?"

The people in the banquet hall looked around and saw Cang Xiaolou wearing a suit and an exquisite bow tie. He walked over with a bouquet of beautiful flowers in his hands. When he saw Long Qin, his cold expression changed. He walked over eagerly and offered the flowers to Long Qin. He said sweetly, "Qinqin, you're so beautiful today. On account of your beauty, I won't argue with you about not picking me up from school for two days."

Long Qin was amused. She took the flowers and bent down to kiss Cang Xiaolou's fair forehead. "I've been busy for the past two days. The flowers are beautiful. Thank you, Xiaolou."

Cang Xiaolou said proudly, "Hmph, this is the first time I've given a woman flowers. Do you like them?"

Long Qin replied, "I like it. This is the first time I've received flowers."

Cang Xiaolou instantly smiled. "Then I'll help you realize many firsts in the future."

Long Qin couldn't help but laugh when she heard that. At this moment, Old Madam Cang also walked over. Long Qin rubbed Cang Xiaolou's head and greeted Old Madam Cang, "Old Madam, thank you for coming to the banquet."

Old Madam Cang held Long Qin's hand. "What are you being so polite for? You're just like my own granddaughter. This time, not only are we here, even Cang Xu is here to support you."

"What?!" Long Qin almost lost her composure and felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her head. She subconsciously raised her head and looked at the entrance of the banquet hall. She did not see Cang Xu's figure, but Old Madam Cang's words were enough to sound the alarm.

Old Madam Cang smiled and said, "You saved Xiaolou, so Cang Xu definitely has to express his gratitude. He got someone to delete all the news about him wanting to marry you on the internet. Right now, who knows how many people are waiting to see you make a fool of yourself? If he comes over to support you tonight, no one will dare to laugh at you anymore. This is what he should do, so you don't have to be surprised."

Long Qin wanted to say that she was not surprised, but more frightened! She took a deep breath and asked Old Madam Cang, "Where is Mr. Cang Xu?"

Old Madam Cang replied, "He just received a call at the door, so we came in first. He'll come over after making the call."

Long Qin was speechless. It seemed that she was doomed tonight. However, the matter was not serious. She was more afraid that Cang Xu would not let her treat his illness in a fit of anger after finding out that he had made a mistake and kissed her. However, her original goal was not to treat Cang Xu but to destroy the Song family's plan and ruin Song Xuelan's marriage. Now she knew that Cang Xu was a lovesick person. Since he was still thinking about the love of his life and would definitely not marry Song Xuelan, her goal had been achieved. As for whether she was chased away by Cang Xu, it did not seem to be that important.

Long Qin calmed herself down and helped Old Madam Cang fend off waves of people who wanted to curry favor with her. She brought Old Madam Cang to a quiet place to sit down. Old Madam Cang increasingly felt that Long Qin was sensible. She was old and the most annoying thing was socializing. This time, she only attended such a banquet on Long Qin's account.
