Chapter 39: Chapter 39 His Love 1_1
Chapter 39 -39 His Love 1_1
The majority of guests at the banquet knew exactly who the distinguished and domineering handsome man on stage was.
After all, they were all prominent figures in C City, and Mu Yingchen’s identity was known to everyone.
Some had even had the fortune to meet him a few times, while others could only watch the business tycoon of Asia through the big screen.
And now, they were witnessing with their own eyes and ears the legendary figure declaring that the star of the banquet was his girlfriend?
Heavens! Were they hallucinating? Was the cold, ruthless, iron-fisted ruler of Asia changing his ways?
If the daughter of the Su Family were truly his girlfriend, then they hadn’t come here in vain—they were connecting with a massive powerhouse!
However, Su Wanxia’s parents were the first to snap out of their shock, their faces tinged with worry rather than joy at Mu Yingchen’s declaration.

Yan Yirou, Jian Manhui, and the rest of their group were also stunned in place, mouths agape enough to fit an egg.
The usually aloof man, Mu Yingchen, was publicly acknowledging Wanxia as his girlfriend in front of so many people—were they hearing this right?
Mu Feng and Meng Can didn’t seem as shocked as the others; one knew Mu Yingchen well, and the other had already sensed the unusual relationship between them, so this was expected.
However, Ji Hua and Mu Chuyang were far from composed, their eyes almost popping out. They had come with their big brother, for goodness’ sake, why didn’t he give them any hints? Didn’t he know their hearts were fragile?
But at that moment, Ji Hua was unaware that a gaze was piercing through the crowd, landing on him—infatuated, lingering, filled with unspoken longing.
At the same time, Su Wanxia stiffly turned her head, shifting her overly shocked eyes from what was in front to the tall, handsome man beside her.
As Mu Yingchen looked down, Su Wanxia found herself locked into the mesmerizing black orbs that always captivated her spirit. She could feel her heartbeat racing, her face burning up involuntarily, hot and intense, yet the sweet feeling deep within made her feel immensely guilty.
She ought to have denied it, so why couldn’t she utter a word?
Suddenly, she felt a cool sensation on her forehead and her eyes widened in astonishment.
He—he had kissed her in public!
All the people below the stage were utterly disheveled—
Mu Yingchen’s lips curved into a mischievous smirk, and the obsidian-like glint in his eyes flowed. The feeling of regaining control was indeed very pleasing.
He wanted the whole world to know she was his woman!
He wanted her to have no place to hide, no place to escape!
Su Wanxia’s heart skipped a beat; she felt like she was falling into an abyss with no bottom, falling and falling endlessly.
Mu Yingchen was very pleased with her reaction and turned his gaze towards the shell-shocked audience, his stunning lips parting slightly, “Please, enjoy yourselves.”
Then, he took Su Wanxia by the hand and walked through the crowds, heading outside.
As the couple was about to vanish from sight, everyone finally came to their senses—how could they enjoy themselves after he had taken the main attraction away?
It was only then that Su Wanxia’s parents apologetically said to the guests, “We are very sorry, but please help yourselves. They might come back later.”
What could the guests say now? The Su family’s distinguished future son-in-law was a top figure at the pinnacle of the pyramid; they couldn’t fawn over him enough, even though they knew that he might not come back. But they couldn’t just leave halfway through, could they?
Mu Yingchen suavely whisked Su Wanxia away from the birthday party, causing her parents a moment of embarrassment. However, everyone publicly said nothing, still lavishing praise on the treasured daughter, using every beautiful adjective in the book to describe her.
At that moment, when Mu Yingchen was pulling Su Wanxia along all the way to the car, she finally snapped out of the shock from his astonishing actions at the party. She glanced at him with her head slightly bowed, sneakily taking in the man next to her who was so devastatingly handsome it made people both envious and resentful.
Just a glimpse of his profile made her heart race uncontrollably.
It seemed that when she was with him, she had no immunity, constantly being mesmerized and losing herself.
The more Su Wanxia watched, the more troubled she became inside. Why did she lose all capacity to think for herself as soon as she saw him? Tonight was supposed to be her birthday party, and now he had pulled her away from it. What about all the people at the party? But why didn’t she protest at all and just followed him out?
Mu Yingchen, as if detecting her surreptitious gaze, turned his head sharply to look at her. She instantly raised her left hand to her forehead and pretended to adjust her hair.
Only when Mu Yingchen turned his face away did she lower her left hand and gently hmm’d twice, “So, where are you taking me?”
“I’m taking you to a place,” Mu Yingchen gave the impression he didn’t plan to tell her just yet.
“What place?” Forgive her curiosity, but she genuinely wanted to know where he intended to take her.
In fact, his appearance tonight had turned her initial astonishment into hidden joy. Yes, she was secretly excited, elated in her heart.
She was glad he hadn’t forgotten that today was her birthday.
She was thrilled that he openly called her his girlfriend in front of everyone. That statement was something she had longed for in her dreams.
In the past, he would never admit his fondness for her in front of so many people, or so directly declare her as his girlfriend, much less kiss her in public.
It was always her who chased after him persistently, possessively claiming him, making unreasonable demands, while he always silently accepted and doted on her.
But why, when she finally heard the words she once yearned for, does her heart feel as bitter as unsweetened coffee?
“You’ll know when we get there,” Mu Yingchen suddenly replied. Su Wanxia hurriedly gathered her thoughts, responded with an “Oh,” and fell silent.
When Mu Yingchen stopped the car and personally opened the door for her, helping her out, she felt an eerie familiarity with the place.
At this moment, Mu Yingchen’s expression was extremely tender. He gently placed his hands on Su Wanxia’s shoulders and softly said, “Turn around.”
Without much thought, Su Wanxia slowly turned as he guided her. At the moment she lifted her gaze, a magnificent, rainbow-colored arch bridge suddenly appeared before her. Its beautiful body reflected on the vast river surface, exuding spectacular and opulent splendor like a colorful fantasy.
She gazed in awe, eyes widening, lips slightly parted, captivated by the beauty of the bridge and the rippling reflections in the water, unable to recover her senses for a long while.
This was C City’s largest arch over the south-to-north water diversion channel, known as: The Crossing Bridge.
No wonder it felt so familiar; it was this place.
It was here that he first said “I love you” —
She remembered it was her first birthday after a year of dating him, and on that day, she finally heard the long-awaited “I love you!”
