Lin Chen felt the warmth from Xue Ying's fingertips and chuckled as he replied, "It's a great honor."
Just now in the car, Xue Ying had shared her story with Lin Chen.
It turned out that Xue Ying once had a happy family, but after her mother passed away, her father remarried.
The stepmother was very cunning, acting one way to her face and another behind her back.
On the surface, she seemed very loving towards Xue Ying, but behind closed doors, she constantly scolded and berated her.
As Xue Ying grew up, the stepmother kept trying to set her up with boyfriends, not caring at all about Xue Ying's feelings, as long as the suitor was wealthy; this was also why Xue Ying had decided to make her own way in the world.
The two entered the hotel, where the banquet had already started.
Most of the guests were young people; the banquet was essentially a matchmaking event for the upper class.
Upon seeing Xue Ying, Xue Li came over with a smile, "Ying, you finally made it."
