Supreme Divine Physician in the City Chapter 6 - 6 6 CEO's Wife Lin Tong
Previously on Supreme Divine Physician in the City...
The man in the black suit wore a peculiar expression, scrutinizing Ye Xuan once more. "Are you absolutely certain your wife's name is Lin Tong?"
"Of course, I'm certain! How could I possibly mistake my own wife's name?" Ye Xuan replied, annoyed, puffing out his lips. "Look! My wife knew I was coming and even prepared a banquet for me. How could it be fake?"
"Kid, you've got some serious guts, daring to impersonate the young lady's husband!" The man in the black suit advanced, his hand gripping Ye Xuan's collar. "Today, our Lin Family is hosting the son of the Song Family. He is our young lady's actual fiancé! Confess now, what is your true intention in pretending to be the young lady's husband?"
Ye Xuan frowned. "What nonsense is this Master Song you speak of? I am Lin Tong's real fiancé! I'm telling you to show some respect, or I'll have my wife fire you!"
"Damn it, you still dare to spout such rubbish! Since you won't leave willingly, I'll force you!" The man in the black suit declared indignantly, raising his security baton to strike Ye Xuan's shoulder. Ye Xuan snorted coldly, seizing the hand gripping his collar and twisting it backward. The man in the black suit grunted, his face paling as he doubled over, gasping in pain. "Scum; you dare to act so arrogant in front of me." Ye Xuan delivered a kick to the man, sending him sprawling. Disregarding the fallen guard, he strode towards the villa.
…
Inside the opulent Lin Family estate.
A portly middle-aged man, clad in a business suit, raised his glass towards the handsome young man before him, his tone exceedingly kind. "Shaopeng, from this moment on, consider this your home. Lin Tong is your fiancée, and I am your father-in-law!" The speaker, a square-faced middle-aged man, was Lin Dongfang, Lin Tong's father. The young man opposite him was Song Shaopeng, the eldest son of the Song Family from East Sea City.
Beside Lin Dongfang sat a woman of regal beauty. "Yes, Shaopeng, families don't mince words. Lin Tong lost her mother at a young age, and I, acting as her stepmother, hope she marries into a good family. In East Sea City, no one matches Lin Tong in terms of family background and status except you," she added, enthusiastically serving Song Shaopeng food, her words dripping with flattery.
"Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, we are family now; this is my home!" Song Shaopeng responded with a smile, greatly lifting the spirits of Lin Dongfang and Mei Ruohua. As he spoke, Song Shaopeng's gaze shifted to the woman seated across from him, who possessed an ethereal beauty. A fervent glint flickered in his eyes. This was Lin Tong, renowned as 'Jiangdu's number one beauty CEO,' highly coveted by many men in Jiangdu and consistently topping the 'most desired woman' lists. Furthermore, she was his fiancée.
"Brother-in-law, I'll be following your lead from now on; you've got to take good care of me," said a slim young man with a crew cut, seated beside Lin Tong. He appeared extremely ingratiating as he toasted Song Shaopeng. This young man was Lin Zifeng, Lin Tong's half-brother.
"Heh, Zifeng, we're all family now. Just stick close to your brother-in-law, and I'll lead you to glory and beyond!" Song Shaopeng declared expansively.
"Song Shaopeng, keep dreaming about spring and autumn. I never said I would marry you, and you are not worthy!" Lin Tong finally spoke, her voice laced with coldness, having remained silent until this point.
"Lin Tong, your father and I only wish for the best for you. Master Song is the son of the Bangyao Group's CEO; marrying him is the optimal choice for you," Mei Ruohua urged.
"Mei Ruohua, whether I marry or not is my personal affair. It has nothing to do with you, and you have no right to meddle in my marriage!" Lin Tong retorted, showing no deference to her stepmother, her voice carrying a distinct chill.
"Husband, listen to how your daughter is speaking to me! Alas, not being her biological mother..." Mei Ruohua appeared visibly distressed, pulling Lin Dongfang closer to act the part of a wronged wife.
"Lin Tong, how can you speak to Aunt Mei like that?" Lin Dongfang chastised, his face stern. "Dad, did you summon me back from the company just for this? Do you realize I have a major project this afternoon? Do you know how much this will cost the company?"
"Hmph, a woman's opinion! What is that potential loss compared to a marriage alliance with the Song Family?" Lin Dongfang stated coldly.
"In your eyes, are there only family benefits? I should be the one to decide matters of my marriage; why do you have the right to sacrifice my happiness?" Lin Tong stood her ground, unyielding.
"You have no right to choose!"
“I am your father; I raised you, therefore I have the authority to make any decision concerning you!” Lin Dongfang sternly declared.
“Lin Tong, my feelings for you are genuine; please consent to marry me!”
Song Shaopeng presented the roses he had prepared earlier, approached Lin Tong, knelt on one knee, and spoke with utter sincerity.
Dressed in a sharp suit, his smile was gentle and refined, projecting the image of a perfect prince charming. Yet, his inner thoughts dripped with malice: “Lin Tong, oh Lin Tong, the moment you become my wife and step into my household, I will turn you into my personal plaything. I’ll make you a saintly snow lotus exposed to all, and force you to act the proud, aloof ice queen just for my amusement!”
“Haha, Shaopeng, I have complete faith that you will treat Lin Tong with the utmost kindness!”
Lin Dongfang boomed with laughter. “Excellent, it is decided.
The engagement ceremony will take place in three days!
Lin Tong, you must prepare yourself to join the Song Family through marriage.”
“Ah, respected future father-in-law…
No, Father!
Once Lin Tong is a part of the Song Family, I guarantee she will be treated well, and I shall provide substantial support for her business endeavors.”
Song Shaopeng was ecstatic, his joy palpable.
Heh heh heh, Lin Tong, once I grow tired of you, I’ll cast you aside and then seize control of the Lin Family's fortunes!
“Song Shaopeng, banish that thought from your mind; I would sooner marry anyone else than you!”
Lin Tong’s face contorted in fury, and she made a move to depart.
Bang!
Suddenly, the grand doors to the banquet hall were flung open, and a man with unkempt hair, resembling a chaotic bird's nest, entered, a battered snakeskin bag slung over his shoulder.
“A pack of curs, wasting my precious time and compelling me to engage in conflict; it’s truly infuriating.”
Ye Xuan muttered to himself before casually taking a seat, reaching for the red wine before him, and downing it in one gulp. “Allow me to introduce myself, I am Ye Xuan, and….
who exactly is Lin Tong?”
Observing Ye Xuan take a sip from the wine glass she had just used, Lin Tong’s delicate face flushed faintly.
Regaining her composure, Lin Tong responded, “That would be me.”
“So, you are my intended wife?”
Ye Xuan appraised Lin Tong from head to toe, a subtle glint appearing in his eyes.
The woman possessed a face of unparalleled beauty, as if sculpted by divine hands, a masterpiece of celestial artistry.
Her long, dark tresses were elegantly styled, her slender brows finely arched, reminiscent of exquisite ink wash paintings, radiating breathtaking allure!
Her entire presence exuded an aura of timeless, classical elegance, seamlessly integrated with contemporary fashionable charm.
Seated there, she appeared less like a mortal and more like a celestial maiden from the Nine Heavens, gracing the earthly realm!
From her bearing and figure to her exquisite face, she was undeniably a stunning beauty capable of driving countless men to madness.
Even Ye Xuan, accustomed to the allure of Western beauties during his travels abroad, was profoundly struck by Lin Tong’s unique and captivating radiance!
“It seems the old man finally managed to do something right for once, arranging such a remarkable beauty to be my bride; life certainly won’t be dull from now on.” Ye Xuan felt a surge of genuine satisfaction.
“Hey, you vagabond, this place is not for the likes of you.
Vanish at once!” Song Shaopeng’s voice was sharp and disdainful.
Ye Xuan looked up, his brow furrowing. “And who might you be?
To dare court my fiancée right before my eyes, you’d best disappear, or prepare yourself for a severe beating!”
What?
These words, upon being spoken, left everyone present utterly astonished!
