Chapter 854: 854. Domineering Queen

Everyone’s gaze lingered on Lin Jingshu and Ming Zhengxun, observing them discreetly.

Seeing how well-matched the couple appeared, some even thought that Elder Mr. Lin marrying his daughter off to Qiao Sheng was like sticking a fresh flower into cow dung.

"Teacher."

Ming Zhengxun walked up to the Lin family’s elders and greeted them respectfully.

Elder Mr. Lin was delighted to see his accomplished protégé, and the annoyance caused by the Yian family father and daughter moments ago had somewhat dissipated.

"Zhengxun, it’s really a great effort on your part to come all the way here to celebrate my birthday," Elder Mr. Lin said with a hearty laugh.

Ming Zhengxun smiled in reply, "As your pupil, I naturally had to come for your birthday celebration. I’m sorry to have troubled my Senior Sister to pick me up from the airport specially."

As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Lin Jingshu.

Lin Jingshu returned the smile and teased, "You are my dad’s favorite student. If this were ancient times, you would have been carried in a palanquin to get you here."

Facing Lin Jingshu’s playful banter, Ming Zhengxun also smiled gently.

Lin Jingshu didn’t continue teasing Ming Zhengxun. Instead, she turned her gaze to Qiao Sheng and Su Suqin. As her glance swept over them, Qiao Sheng was momentarily stunned, feeling a sense of unease in his heart.

His mind used to be filled with Su Suqin, the white moonlight of his memories, and he had almost forgotten that Lin Jingshu was an undeniable beauty.

Normally she was quiet, appearing unassuming with her wings tucked. But now looking at Lin Jingshu, he realized that her beauty was unparalleled and she had a unique, domineering presence that few women possessed.

Only then did Qiao Sheng realize that the air of authority seen in Qiaoxu, that little scoundrel, was inherited entirely from Lin Jingshu.

He secretly looked at Lin Jingshu, but she wasn’t looking at him. Instead, she shifted her gaze to the Yian family father and daughter, narrowing her eyes ever so slightly with an expression of displeasure.

Soon after, she laughed dismissively and said, "Is it because I’m not by my daughter’s side that you take the chance to bully her?"

Her voice was soft, but it was laced with barely suppressed anger.

Seeing her mother arrive, Qiaoxu felt like a young girl with a parent’s support and smiled contentedly.

Lu Moqing leaned into her ear and whispered, "I was originally going to help you, but seeing my mother-in-law so domineering, I’ll just stand aside and watch."

Qiaoxu glanced at him, raising an eyebrow in triumph as a smug glint appeared in her eyes, saying:

"I also have parents."

Her delighted expression was reminiscent of a child whose parents had come to back her up in a fight with her classmates.

Lu Moqing reached out and gently pinched her cheek, affectionately indulging her by saying, "Look at you, being all pleased with yourself."

Qiaoxu raised her eyebrows and hummed softly twice.

Yan Xu felt uneasy under Lin Jingshu’s gaze, awkwardly touching the tip of his nose and saying:

"There may be a misunderstanding about this... why don’t we drop it?"

As he looked at Lin Jingshu, his appearance seemed to show some shortness of breath and guilt.

Especially when considering that it might be his daughter who had intentionally plotted against Qiaoxu, his reputation in this circle would be ruined.

Lin Jingshu looked at Yan Xu, sneered coldly, then turned to look at Yan Yufei, curving her lips slightly.
