The sweetheart of a strong president

Chapter 28 Love rivals meet

There was a flash of surprise in Dai Chao's eyes. As he looked deeper, a hint of joy appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if he saw some possibility in this unexpected reunion.

Although he was aware of Mr. Lin's presence, his eyes still unscrupulously followed Amelia Su, and that look also revealed his unfriendly attitude towards Mr. Lin.

Mr. Lin was keenly aware of the abnormality. He frowned but quickly returned to normal.

He did not show any extreme emotions, but gently held Su Wan's hand in a decent way, as if silently telling her:

"I am here."

Su Wan's first reaction was a brief panic. She did not expect to meet him in such an occasion, and she did not expect that he would openly show his attention to her.

She quickly calmed herself down. She knew that at this moment, she was representing not only herself, but also Mr. Lin and their shared social image.

She extended her hand generously and said, "Hello, Mr. Dai, long time no see."

After saying that, she nodded gracefully to Dai Chao, then turned around and showed her most decent smile to the boss and her new friend.

Her answers were fluent and appropriate, and there was nothing wrong with them.

"haven't seen you for a long time……"

Dai Chao had more to say, but General Lin did not give him a chance to continue.

He noticed something unusual and felt a little uneasy, so he deliberately said:

"Nice to meet you, Lin Zihan. Su Wan is my girlfriend, and we will be friends from now on."

He observed Dai Chao's painful expression for a moment.

Lin Zihan didn't want to get entangled with him and quickly changed the subject.

The cocktail party continued, and the three of them adjusted their mindsets and reintegrated into this social feast.

Although the appearance of the ex briefly stirred up their inner turmoil, Su Wan's wise response and Mr. Lin's silent support made them the focus of the party again.

Dai Chao gradually faded out of the crowd, and this time the meeting between Su and Dai became an insignificant episode.

As the banquet began, Mr. Li warmly welcomed every distinguished guest as the host.

He ordered his steward to lead the guests to their seats, and Lin Zihan, Su Wan and Dai Chao happened to be arranged at the same table.

Lin Zihan and Su Wan sat in the main seats, which was obviously an affirmation and respect for their status.

The guests gathered around this table were some prominent CEOs, some of whom were Lin Zihan’s old friends, and some were business people he had recently met.

Despite their different backgrounds, everyone was polite and respectful to each other on such occasions, especially to Lin Zihan, to whom they showed extra respect.

Although the atmosphere was lively at the banquet, there was no chaotic scene of people toasting each other or arguing over wine.

On the contrary, everything went smoothly and both the guests and the hosts enjoyed themselves.

Lin Zihan and Su Wan became the focus of the party. The natural harmony revealed in their manners, conversations and laughter made people couldn't help but admire that they were a match made in heaven.

During the dinner, the CEOs either exchanged business information or had a casual chat, but they all maintained a certain sense of propriety and no one dared to lose their composure in front of Lin Zihan.

Mr. Lin, on the other hand, showed his love and took good care of Su Wan. A steamed lobster was served on the table.

He picked up a lobster and started to peel it with skillful and meticulous technique. He first gently twisted the lobster's head and then lightly picked it up with his fingers, and the shell was easily peeled off.

Then, he picked up the shrimp with a fork and put it on Su Wan's plate. Su Wan remained calm and ate silently, knowing that the CEO's dark and dramatic spirit had taken over.

If these tricks of his could fool Dai Chao and make him give up, it would be considered as helping her, so she would just cooperate.

Dai Chao felt mixed emotions. The person he loved with all his heart became someone else's girlfriend, and her new boyfriend was showing off their love in front of him. I'm sure Su Wan could understand how he felt.

She didn't dare look at Dai Chao and just focused on eating.

As the dinner came to an end, everyone had a satisfied smile on their face, and this banquet would undoubtedly become another wonderful night in their memories.

For Su Wan and Lin Zihan, this was not only a social success, but also a deepening of their relationship.

Su Wan felt a little bit sorry for Dai Chao's embarrassing situation. After all, there was nothing wrong with him admiring her, but he had given her the wrong treatment. She felt sorry for him and hoped that he would turn around sooner and not suffer such unnecessary torture.

The dinner was over, Lin Zihan and his friend said goodbye to the host and prepared to get in the car to leave, but Dai Chao caught up with them.

"Mr. Lin, I want to talk to Su Wan, is that okay?" He looked at Su Wan.

"You have to ask Wan'er." He looked at her affectionately and deliberately called her "Wan'er".

"Mr. Lin, wait for me five minutes." She looked at Lin Zihan.

"Call me Zi Han, girl. I've told you so many times but you still can't remember." He touched her head.

"I will definitely change it next time."

She also pretended to be serious and responded meekly.

The two walked one after the other and came to a place about 50 meters away.

Time flies. Perhaps Dai Chao's persistence touched God, and finally allowed him to reunite with Su Wan in the vast crowd.

The girl in front of him was the one who kept him awake at night.

She is still radiant and the years have left no trace on her face.

His heart was in turmoil. Was it excitement? Was it loss? Or was it the love that had never faded? Thousands of words came to his mind, but they only turned into a gentle greeting: "Are you okay?"

"Didn't you see everything?"

"Are you hiding from me because of him?" He pointed at Lin Zihan.

"Yes."

“But I think you’re just acting.”

"is it necessary?"

"It's true that he likes you, but you don't necessarily like him."

"Why do you think so?"

"Because you called him Mr. Lin, which is the way employees address their bosses, not something that should be used between lovers." She admitted that she was negligent for the moment.

"I'm used to it. Is that all you want to tell me?"

"I thought I had forgotten you, but when I saw you, I knew I was wrong."

He was very frustrated. "Su Wan, can we start over? At least give me a chance and let me compete with him fairly?"

"Dai Chao, I gave up everything and left you. Do you think I was joking? If you keep talking about this, we won't even be friends anymore." After saying that, he was about to leave.

"Su Wan, can't you consider my feelings?" It was almost a pleading tone.

Su Wan left without looking back, got into Lin Zihan's car and drove away.

Dai Chao felt as if his heart was being cut out. He had waited for more than a year, but this was still the result.

Lin Zihan could no longer act as if nothing had happened. He felt that there was something going on between them, and he was worried that the appearance of this person would hinder the further development of his relationship with Su Wan.
