Love lies between

Engagement party

the clothes were delivered to su jin's house that evening.staring at the huge box her room su jin decided to look at it when she wears it the next day.feeling tired she waddled to the bed falling asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow.

meanwhile at the hotel the man from earlier came back again to report."miss as per your orders we watched her, she never left the house today miss"

"am sure that conniving b***h is up to something but am prepared let's wait and see" staring at her self in the mirror tang ning grinned evilly

the next day su jin continued her daily routine eating,sleeping and lazing around until yeong su called and asked her to come to his house.raising a brow she asked

"why ? I thought you'd come here to pick me up"

" I hired a makeup artist for you" he replied while flipping through the files in his hands

"are you home now? should I head over?" she asked walking towards her closet and picked up a pink dress

"no but my mom is around I'll meet you once you are done mmm"

"Kay bye"

changing her clothes she picked up the dress and walked out of the house.she entered the car ,greeting the driver she told him her destination and the car sped off.

the car finally stopped at the entrance of the large mansion.the yeong family lived up to its reputation as a wealthy and influential family.the heavy bronze gate featured an ancient architectural design.the antique plaque above the gate was engraved with the words "yeong mansion.

passing through the gate they finally stopped .stepping out of the car su jin looked around with sparkling eyes .the garden was still as she remembered four years ago ,flowers blooming vibrantly and they looked fresh.seeing a familiar figure holding a watering can she talked quickly in her stilettos

"hello aunty GU" she greeted while beaming.

gu jinya turned a surprised look on her beautiful face." little jin you are back"?

"yes aunt I came back two days ago didnt yeong su inform you he even picked me up" she answered

gu jinya stared at the tender girl with her tiny face sharp chin and clear eyes she looked refreshing like morning dew on a rose.dressed in a pink vintage gown that showed her curvy body she was indeed a beauty

"back to earth aunt what have you been thinking" su jin came forward holding her hands

" nothing little jin " she smiled lightly

"okay is yeong home "?su jin asked ,gu jinya was about to answer when the butler interrupted

"miss su young master has gone for a meeting but he asked me to take you to the guest room ,the makeup artist is waiting"he bowed

"aunty I'll treat you to tea next time okay"she smiled and turned following the butler

looking at the girls back gu jinya sighed sadly knowing she had gone through a lot

"the artist is inside also your dress is there miss su please make yourself comfortable" the butler bowed again

"oh okay thanks for the hard work"nodding at him she pushed the door and entered.the afternoon flew by and soon it was evening

a black car drove into the mansion stopping right at the door for hyunjin to step out ,glancing at his watch he checked the time seeing it was still early he walked in

"greetings young master"the butler bowed at the door

tugging at his tie he asked "is she done"?

nodding the butler replied " yes miss su has been waiting"

he nodded and walked toward the stairs but suddenly stopped as he stared at the beauty descending from the stairs gracefully

"Hyunjin" she called out and smiled at him.

she was dressed in red which somehow did not look flirtatious on her instead of was so refreshing line a flower blooming after the rain.she looked pure and clean.

the makeup artist standing behind her couldn't help but comment "miss jin is very pretty and her skin is good"

getting closer to him she batted her eyelashes at him.lifting her dress she looked at yeong su "how do I look?good?

yeong su smiled at her tenderly his eyes looking gently as he pushed a stray hair from her face "beautiful " he said

beaming with joy su jin held his hands "you sure have good taste the gown suits me well"

"mmm it does" he agreed his eyes still having the gentel touch

"alright let's go " she tugged his arm

the engagement party was being held at the four season hotel.

housing a large hall, three pools a gym and spa,it was a perfect place for any party or banquet.the huge hall looked very classic and noble.

the car came to a halt and a radiant red lipped beauty stepped out,her pair of sparkling eyes shone radiantly.her red dress hugged her perfect figure intimately as her long hair fell beautifully on her shoulder stopping at her waist.

balanced confidently on her red heels she looked elegant,graceful and poised holding unto the man beside her she waltz confidently into the hotel.

heads turn towards them as they passed by people.the man looked charming in his whine red suit,his chiseled face looked cold but his eyes had a gentle touch as he kept stealing glances at the little woman beside him.her small face glowed underneath the light

"president gu is here,a big welcome for president gu please come in"a man greeted and ushered them.seeing su jin he couldn't help but steal more glances at her but a chilling gaze from hyunjin made him retract his eyes looking at his shoes.it was when they passed that a thought suddenly struck him

"holy f**k president hyunjin brought a woman with him"

su jin had begun to ganer attention in the big hall,her dress was exquisite,it was a beautiful red and flowed to the floor.it looked graceful and extremely elegant.

"who's that lady beside president gu"

"yeah she looks familiar I think I've met her somewhere"

"tch stop dreaming you are so ugly how could you have known such a beauty big dream" a guy snorted

murmurs continue to rise as they passed by women looked enviously at su jin while the men couldn't keep their eyes off her

"who's she"?clutching her wine cup Qiao ximin asked her face a dark shade

"huh her? I don't know but she looks familiar I just can't put my finger on it" a girl dressed in a green tulle dress responded

Qiao ximin eyes glowered with hatred as she stared at su jin.seeing her like this her friend lu jia asked in a worried tone"ximin what's wrong?"

"nothing excuse me" walking towards them she grabbed an extra whine glass from a waitress and gulped it down at once

"brother hyunjin ”she called out in a coquettish voice.su jin turned looking at the girl wearing a purple dress calling yeong su's name

Qiao ximin walked forward and held his free am,swaying it she complained with sugary voice"brother hyunjin you've been hiding from me all this while.I even went to your office but assistant shen won't let me in saying you are busy.I only wanted you to taste the lunch I made for you that day.my Mon even said she wanted to invite you for dinner someday..." Qiao ximin kept on chattering not looking the least bit tired

su jin waggled her brow at gu hyunjin who in turn gave Qiao ximin the death stare.frightened by the scowl on his face she shut her mouth

"did I give you permission to touch me"?gu hyunjin thunders

"no brother gu I jus....ahh"Qiao ximin let out a scream as yeong su pushed her hand from his arm.losing her balance she almost fell.the crowd turned towards them getting ready to watch a good show

"just because my mom likes you doesn't mean you have the right to look for me in my company or make lunch for me,we are not close " his voice boomed anger laced in it

"brother hyunjin you are mistaken I just wa......” qaio Ximin hurriedly tried to explain

"its president gu to you miss Qiao" he cut her off with a cold voice

"look at her she is so shameless"

"trying to fawn over president yeong who does she think she is "

"serves her right "

"can't even bear to look at disgusting face"

many voices spoke and looked at her mockingly.a wave of shame flushed through Qiao ximin as she ran out of the hall.

"hehehe brother hyunjin you are a big bully" su jin teased the man whose face had turn black

"stop it"

"hump such a kill joy"she huffed and droped his hand turning her body sideways

seeing that he angered his woman he signed and held her wrist"am sorry"

"unaccepted"she snorted keeping a straight face

"am sorry great aunt please forgive this little ancestor" he smiled bending his head to reach her height

stunned she blushed and knocked him"move back you are taking my space fine I forgive you"

opening her purse she picked her phone and called her mom

"hello mom where are you I can't find you here"

"is it serious"?

"are you sure mom"

"okay love you too"

"what's wrong with aunty"?

"she has a fever but its not serious so she didn't attend" shrugging her shoulder su jin responded.

at that moment tang ning came down the stairs dressed to the nine's in a sparkly champagne sequin mermaid dress,it was sleeveless with beaded patterns .hiding her hands was an equally handsome mo pingyu in a black tuxedo .they looked extremely pleasing to the eyes of onlookers but su jin found them an eye sore

keeping a serene smile on her face,tang ning held unto mo pingyu as they walked towards the stage. while nodding at the guests,her sights fell on su jin and she frowned but quickly straightened her face

"welcome everyone,I know you had things to do but you all decided to grace us with your presence thank you" mo pingyu spoke holding a mic

smiling he turned towards tang ning "ning from the first time I saw you I've always known in my heart that we are meant to e .we've been through thick and thin together both in the joy and sorrow.I hope we'll always be together .I love you ning" his voiced flowed gently as he declared his love for her

tears brimmed in tang ning's eyes as she smiled"I love you too brother pingyu"
