On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!
Chapter 71 Taking Charge for Her
As Su Chenxi recalled the past, tears welled up in her eyes without her realizing it. When she looked up, she saw the man hurriedly lower his head to wipe them away. The man had already seen it, and his eyes surged with emotion. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his chest.
Is this why she doesn't want to go home? For her, this home only holds memories of grievances.
Shen Yanchuan sat down next to her, wrapped his long arm around her, and pulled her slender shoulders into his embrace. Su Chenxi buried her face in his chest and used his expensive shirt as a handkerchief to wipe her eyes.
Shen Yanchuan lowered his head and kissed her head with his thin lips, gently rubbing her head in a comforting manner.
Behind the pillar, a pair of eyes were practically burning with jealousy. Jiang Yao had thought she could find an opportunity to spend time with Shen Yanchuan, but she never expected to stumble upon this scene.
Has Su Chenxi already won Shen Yanchuan's favor so much?
Returning from the garden to the dining table, where a sumptuous spread filled the round table, Shen Yanchuan led Su Chenxi in. Su Chenxi secretly tried to pull her hand away, but the man held it tightly, and she let him lead her to the table.
Jiang Liguo saw this and resentment welled up in his heart. He felt increasingly unbalanced. A perfectly good marriage alliance had allowed an outsider to get a great deal and marry into a top-tier wealthy family, while his own daughter's marriage was still undecided.
He felt that Su Chenxi was deliberately showing off to the Jiang family; she was truly an ungrateful wretch.
"Come on, Yan Chuan, have a drink." Jiang Liguo got up and poured a glass of wine.
Shen Yanchuan stopped him, saying, "Uncle Jiang, I'm driving tonight, so I won't be drinking."
"Just let Chenxi drive! It's a rare occasion for her to come all this way, we should at least have a drink!" Jiang Liguo enthusiastically urged.
Su Chenxi quickly said, "Uncle Jiang, I can't drive his car, so please don't force him."
Jiang Liguo had no choice but to sit down awkwardly. "Since that's the case, then eat some vegetables, eat more vegetables!"
"Uncle Jiang, Mom, there's something we need to tell you," Shen Yanchuan said loudly.
"What is it?" Su Meifen asked curiously.
Shen Yanchuan smiled and said, "I've decided to give Chenxi a grand wedding. We've already started making arrangements, and the wedding date is the fifth day of next month."
Jiang Yao's hand holding the chopsticks trembled with jealousy. She was the one with the strongest reaction, and her red-eyed gaze shot towards Su Chenxi.
Jiang Liguo was also quite surprised. Shen Yanchuan actually wanted to hold a wedding for Su Chenxi. Wouldn't that cost a huge amount of money?
Su Meifen was also surprised and laughed, "Yan Chuan, wouldn't that cost a lot of money?"
Su Chenxi's face was flushed. She had kept quiet about this matter because she was worried about upsetting the Jiang family.
"The wedding preparation budget is around 10 billion. Chenxi didn't mind my lameness and resolutely decided to marry me. For her affection, I can't treat her unfairly." Shen Yanchuan's words were honest and firm, but they were a slap in the face to the Jiang family.
Jiang Liguo's face flushed, and Jiang Yao lowered her head in guilt, her remorse almost overwhelming the father and daughter.
"Ten billion? This...this expense is too much!" Su Meifen exclaimed in astonishment.
Jiang Liguo also tried to force a smile, "Yan Chuan, there's no need for that. Our Chenxi isn't a vain person. This wedding is fine as it is."
Shen Yanchuan smiled and said, "I won't compromise on this wedding. If I'm going to give her something, I'll give her the best. After all, she's already a member of the Shen family and my wife, Shen Yanchuan's wife."
Su Chenxi, who hadn't dared to raise her head, looked up with emotion upon hearing these words. Tears welled up in her clear eyes. Finally, she understood why he insisted on coming to the Jiang family.
Is he trying to support her and make decisions for her?
Jiang Liguo's smile became even more stiff, and he chuckled, "Seeing how much Yan Chuan loves Chenxi, we elders are relieved."
Su Meifen's eyes were filled with joyful tears. "Come on, Yan Chuan, eat your food. I can rest assured now that I'm handing Chenxi over to you."
Jiang Yao lowered her head, not daring to utter a single word, her face flushed with shame.
The more she used to despise Shen Yanchuan, the more painful the slap in her face is now.
Shen Yanchuan raised his teacup. "Uncle Jiang, Mom, I'd like to toast you both. Thank you for raising Chenxi to be so outstanding and for marrying her to me."
Jiang Liguo and Su Meifen exchanged a glance and then raised their glasses to accept the gift of thanks.
Su Chenxi blushed shyly. Shen Yanchuan's words sounded ambiguous, as if from this moment on, she belonged to him.
Jiang Yao put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm going to the restroom."
Jiang Liguo, with a smile on his face, urged Shen Yanchuan to finish dinner. Shen Yanchuan didn't linger and bid farewell to the two of them.
"Uncle Jiang, Mom, I'm taking Chenxi home first. I still have work to do tonight."
"Go on! Drive carefully on the road." Su Meifen saw them off, and Jiang Liguo also came out to see them off without being negligent.
Just as Shen Yanchuan's sports car disappeared into the courtyard, Su Meifen had just sighed when a sudden slap landed hard on her face.
Jiang Liguo glared at her fiercely, "Su Meifen, your bastard daughter is so smug now! She's even showing off to me with her husband. I should have told you to throw her into an orphanage back then."
Su Meifen covered her face, tears of grievance falling down her cheeks. "What's the point of saying all this now?"
Jiang Liguo sneered, "Now I have to beg you, this bastard, for a favor. Look how she's bewitched Shen Yanchuan. You've taught this bastard the skills you used to seduce other men back then!"
“Jiang Liguo, don’t talk nonsense. Chenxi isn’t that kind of person,” Su Meifen retorted through gritted teeth.
Jiang Liguo glared at her, "A wedding worth 2 billion, the Shen family just throws it to her. You know perfectly well whether you taught her anything behind the scenes or not. What? You want to get rich by relying on your daughter?"
Su Meifen's tears fell again. She knew that her husband hated her for forcing their eldest daughter to marry into the Shen family. Now that Shen Yanchuan had become the person in power, Jiang Liguo was filled with resentment again.
"I didn't, Liguo. I've devoted half my life to this family. Even if I haven't done anything great, I've certainly worked hard. How could you treat me like this?"
A sinister glint flashed in Jiang Liguo's eyes. "Su Meifen, from now on, no matter how glamorous your daughter is in the Shen family, I will make sure you suffer just as much in the Jiang family. Starting this month, I will not give you any living expenses. If you want money, go earn it yourself!"
In the bathroom, Jiang Yao's eyes were red from crying, and she was sobbing uncontrollably. Finally, she angrily swept the cosmetics off the counter, "Why? Why is Su Chenxi so lucky, while I have nothing?"
The billion-dollar wedding is really driving her crazy! She's really going crazy! Shen Yanchuan is going to make up for Su Chenxi's billion-dollar wedding!
Hearing his daughter's frantic cries from the bathroom, Jiang Liguo clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in anger. The kindness his mother had accumulated should have allowed his daughter to enjoy wealth and luxury, but now that bastard Su Chenxi was letting her enjoy it. It was outrageous.
