Reborn on My Wedding Night: This Time, I Won't Fail My Soldier Husband
The driver for the Ouyang family was at the wheel: "Miss Dong, the young mistress is at the Ouyang estate today, so I'm afraid I have to trouble you to make the trip."
With a car provided for pickup and drop-off, what trouble could there be?
There is no such thing as an easy job in business.
Having accepted such a large payment, Dong Shuyao had no reason to be impatient.
She smiled and shook her head without saying a word, though her eyelids twitched.
It must be a lack of sleep from rushing to finish the wedding dress.
The hillside seaside villa—
As the wealthiest family on the island, the Ouyang estate occupied an astonishing amount of land.
The entire mountainside was a massive Chinese-style garden.
The Ouyang family had distinguished guests today, and the nannies and housekeepers moving about wore solemn expressions.
The black sedan emitted a dark luster under the sunlight.
Xie Shangjin rubbed his brow. Outside the half-open window stood a man dressed like a private investigator: "Young Master Xie, the painting you asked me to investigate is inextricably linked to Commander Hu's daughter. It is said that the model was introduced to the great painter Shen by Hu Jiaojiao."
Today was the day the Ouyang and Hu families were announcing their engagement, so Miss Hu's close friends would certainly be in attendance.
Perhaps the person Xie Shangjin was looking for was at the Ouyang banquet today.
Inside the dim car, a figure shifted: "Understood, you may go."
Yao Mingyue sat beside Xie Shangjin: "What is it? Has Young Master Xie not given up on finding that muse yet? Aren't you afraid that I, your fiancée, might get jealous?"
Xie Shangjin gave a wicked smile: "Ours is a business marriage; we each take what we need. I believe Miss Yao understands that."
The way of life in wealthy marriages was for each to play their own games, while uniting against outsiders when necessary to consolidate family status.
"I'm just joking, Young Master Xie. It's time to get out of the car."
