Shen Jingyu suddenly said, "When we get married, the relatives from the Su Family will come again."
Su Xing blinked, confused by what the man was saying. So what? Does that mean we won't get married?
Shen Jingyu quickly replied, "You're overthinking! Even without them, I still have to marry you!"
Su Xing secretly curled the corners of his lips and hurried off to greet others.
It was clear that Shen Jingyu was not alone; as long as he stood there, many people would come up to him. The Su Family consisted mostly of intellectuals, while the Du Family had a more diverse crowd.
Du Gang had arranged six tables, and nearly everyone at those tables was focused on Shen Jingyu.
Surveying the scene, Shen Jingyu identified three potential troublemakers among the six tables!
He promptly informed Luo Hao and Rong Xigu that this Du Gang was becoming increasingly formidable!
Throughout the evening, Su Xing flitted around the venue, greeting guests, mingling, drinking, and helping her brother save face.
By around nine o'clock, people began to gradually disperse from the banquet hall, with some heading to their hotel rooms to rest.
However, Su Xing still needed to finalize tomorrow's security arrangements and various procedures.
Su He had left this whole affair to take care of his pregnant wife!
Watching his beloved woman so exhausted from running around all night, Shen Jingyu couldn't help but grit his teeth countless times at Brother-in-law.
Unfortunately, in this situation, Shen Jingyu really couldn't assist Su Xing. First of all, they were all relatives from the Su Family; even Shen Jingyu couldn't afford to neglect them. Secondly, he simply couldn't navigate things as perfectly as Su Xing did!
Eventually, only Su Xing and Shen Jingyu remained in the banquet hall.
From a distance, Shen Jingyu watched her. Despite being such a petite woman, she possessed immense energy!
Finally, Su Xing showed signs of fatigue in front of her man.
Shen Jingyu slightly opened his arms, and Su Xing almost dove into his embrace as if she wanted to press all her weight onto him!
"You've worked hard!" Shen Jingyu could only offer such a comforting remark.
Su Xing pouted, "If I don't do it, who will? I can't rely solely on my mom! Once Su He gets married, I can finally relax!"
Shen Jingyu coldly snorted inwardly: "You won't! You're just a worrywart!"
"Sweetheart! Have you rested yet?" He Xiaoqing's voice came from outside the door, followed by the sound of her high heels clicking on the floor.
Su Xing felt dizzy as she leaned against Shen Jingyu's embrace, essentially being half-dragged and held by him. Before she could fully process her surroundings, He Xiaoqing entered with her sister.
"Sweetheart, your little cousin is a bit hungry. The kitchen here has closed for the night, so I wanted to ask if we could send someone to prepare some food?" He Xiaoqing and her aunt walked in and immediately noticed Su Xing sitting on Shen Jingyu's lap. Their intimate posture made the atmosphere a bit awkward.
Su Xing's aunt chuckled nervously, "Uh, I’ll find a way to go buy something! I can have my son drive out; Xiao Xing is tired, so let’s not trouble her!"
"It's alright, Aunt! Your little grandson is still young, and there’s nothing suitable outside right now. I’ll arrange for the kitchen to help you out!" Su Xing took charge again.
"Mom, you take Aunt to wait for a bit. I’ll have someone prepare some food suitable for children and send it over," she suggested.
How could a mother not see her own daughter's exhaustion? He Xiaoqing frowned slightly, "Why don’t I go prepare it? You just send me to the kitchen here!"
At that moment, Su Xing stood up and shot her man a look that said, "This is your territory; you take charge!" She had no intention of doing everything herself.
This was the first time Shen Jingyu experienced a woman's reliance on him; he not only didn’t refuse her but felt quite pleased about it. His voice softened considerably, "No need, Aunt. I’ll handle it."
He Xiaoqing looked gratefully at her son-in-law, "Then I’ll take Aunt to see the baby!"
Tonight, their whole family would stay here since there were many relatives around, avoiding unnecessary hassle. Only after Su He lulled his wife to sleep would he need to head to the villa prepared by Su Xing for them. They would set off from there tomorrow morning to pick up the bride, with the remaining events taking place at the hotel to spare his pregnant wife from any trouble.
"Shen Jingyu," she said playfully, "what if we just travel and get married? Or maybe just get a marriage certificate? This grand affair is really exhausting."
When the banquet hall was left with just the two of them, Su Xing wrapped her arms around his neck and sat back down on his lap. Shen Jingyu held her legs with one arm while using his other hand to dial a number on his phone. He instructed Zhao Ming about preparing a late-night snack; with no chefs in the kitchen, it was an easy fix.
Then he looked at Su Xing with concern. "If this were our wedding, you would be the most relaxed wife. I won’t let my princess be busy running around."
Su Xing gazed at his strong jawline and watched his Adam's apple move as he spoke. Knowing he cared for her made her unable to resist leaning in and kissing his chin.
Shen Jingyu was now fully aroused and lost control of his desires. His passionate kiss devoured Su Xing's lips and tongue until it turned into an intoxicating embrace.
In that vast banquet hall, it seemed as though everyone could hear the soft sounds of their lips intertwining.
Time seemed to stretch indefinitely as Su Xing felt a corner of his shirt being lifted. His mind snapped back to reality, and he quickly slapped his palm down, exclaiming, "Hey! Calm down! Do you even know where we are? Stop it; there are other things to take care of!"
Shen Jingyu halted his actions, but it took a moment before he finally released his grip. His gaze was intense, almost burning, as he fixed his eyes on Su Xing. "I'll take you to rest. As for the rest, leave it to me. Don't refuse. I can't protect your friends and family, but I won't let you worry about anything else."
With that, Shen Jingyu effortlessly scooped Su Xing up in his arms and strode confidently toward the elevator, taking her to the exclusive suite on the top floor.
"Is this your room?" Su Xing asked, her eyes widening as she compared it to the lavish wedding suite they had booked downstairs. This room was luxuriously beyond anything she had imagined.
But why did it still feel so lived-in? When had he stayed here? Su Xing was a perceptive woman; she felt her mind racing with thoughts about everything concerning Shen Jingyu.
Shen Jingyu blinked uncomfortably; he really didn't want to explain. Over the past five years, every time he came here, he would stay for a while. He only dared to visit Xing Yu Mansion occasionally at night, but even that was hard to bear—the loneliness of being so close yet unable to see each other through just a wall.
