In the past, Jiang Chen had given her a Body Refining Pill, and she had felt this way then too, but this time, the sensation was even stronger. Lin Bingbing wanted to open her eyes and take a look, but in front of Jiang Chen, she wanted to be obedient and well-behaved. Although she was curious, she ultimately kept her eyes closed.
When the feeling subsided, Jiang Chen's voice rang out again. "You can open your eyes now."
Lin Bingbing quickly opened her eyes and looked down at her thighs. They were as smooth as jade, flawless and without a single scar. She then turned to the dressing mirror to examine her back; the scars there had also vanished. Her body had undergone the refinement of the Body Refining Pill, leaving her skin in pristine condition, resembling a beautifully carved jade beauty. A drop of water would bead on her skin like it would on a lotus leaf, rolling off effortlessly.
As the saying goes, "A fair complexion covers a multitude of flaws." Moreover, Lin Bingbing was already exceptionally beautiful; it was no wonder that Shi Family Second Young Master couldn't forget her and insisted on marrying her.
"Thank you, Jiang Chen!" Lin Bingbing snapped back to reality and sincerely expressed her gratitude to him. If the scars hadn't been removed, she would never have been able to wear short skirts or shorts for the rest of her life—a notion unacceptable for any girl, especially one who was a major star.
"Don't mention it. Change into your outfit; we should be heading out soon," Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"Then help me pick a gown. I have several beautiful evening dresses; I'll try them on for you," Lin Bingbing replied before heading off to change.
The first evening dress was a red, sexy gown with a deep V-neckline—seductive yet lacking in elegance. The second dress resembled a cheongsam design, adorned with blue embroidery that mirrored the azure sky. When Lin Bingbing put it on, it showcased her graceful figure perfectly.
"This one is perfect," Jiang Chen said.
Once they chose the evening dress, Lin Bingbing styled her long hair and walked out of the room with Jiang Chen. In the hall, Lin Bingbing's family had also changed into their outfits. Judging by their attire, they indeed resembled members of high society.
Upon seeing Jiang Chen's clothing, they couldn't help but sneer.
"Look at how he's dressed; I bet he won't even get past security without us saying anything," Brother Lin scoffed.
"Bingbing, since you're all set, let's go," Mother Lin said as she noticed her daughter getting too close to Jiang Chen. She hurried over to take Lin Bingbing's arm and separate them.
"By the way, I'm sorry Xiao Jiang, but our car only seats five—just enough for our family. Why don't you take a taxi?" Mother Lin said coldly while glancing at Jiang Chen.
"Mom, I'll drive and go with Jiang Chen; you all can take one car," Lin Bingbing insisted.
"How can you drive looking like that? Never mind; let your dad take another car. You can ride with us while Xiao Jiang goes with your dad," Mother Lin replied.
"I must be with Jiang Chen; if not, I'm not going," Lin Bingbing stubbornly declared.
"You..." Mother Lin was furious.
Father Lin spoke up to mediate, "Alright, Bingbing can ride with me. Let's all keep our comments to ourselves; today is a joyous occasion, and we shouldn't spoil it."
Mother Lin's expression was icy as she shot a glare at Jiang Chen, but in the end, she had no choice but to compromise.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at the entrance of the most luxurious hotel in Yulu City. The hotel had been booked by the Shi family for the evening. Although the Second Young Master of the Shi family was a notorious playboy, he was still a member of the Shi family, and naturally, the engagement banquet needed to be grand and lively.
