A whirlwind marriage leads to doting affection; the husband pampers her every night.

Take the bus to the nearest bus stop, and it's still almost two kilometers to their house.

After getting off the car, Shen Nian slowly walked towards the familiar place.

The surrounding environment remains unchanged, still beautiful.

When we bought this villa, my mother chose it because of its good environment and fresh air.

Little did I know that I had ended up doing all the work for someone else.

Shen Nian walked into the villa area,

Beneath my feet lies the tree-lined avenue I have walked countless times before.

The house in the distance became clearer and clearer.

But I feel increasingly unfamiliar with myself.

There were many cars parked in front of the villa.

Although the Shen family's businesses are not among the top in Jiangcheng, they still hold a certain status.

It looks like quite a few people came today.

Shen Nian walked in through the main gate.

Sure enough, the living room was bustling with activity.

As soon as she entered, she saw Shen Ximan in a formal dress and Chu Yunyi in a suit, both holding wine glasses and chatting happily.

The servants in the house simply ignored her, since Lu Jiao had long since replaced the former servants with her own people, and they no longer respected her as a young lady of the Shen family.

Shen Guoqiang saw her.

She walked towards her together with Lu Jiao.

"Niannian, you're here?" Shen Guoqiang said with a loving smile.

Shen Nian didn't reply, standing there expressionless.

"Take Niannian upstairs to change her clothes first," Shen Guoqiang said to Lu Jiao.

Lu Jiao, adopting the air of a loving mother, took the initiative to pull Shen Nian, "Niannian, I've prepared several outfits for you. Come upstairs and try them on to see which one you like."

Shen Nian broke free from Lu Jiao's hand and asked her father, "Where's the bracelet?"

Shen Guoqiang was slightly taken aback, then said, "After the banquet, I'll have your Aunt Lu bring it to you. Go change your clothes quickly."

Shen Nian glanced at Shen Guoqiang; she still believed what he said to some extent.

If I could stay for two more hours, I could get my mother's bracelet back.

Shen Nian followed Lu Jiao upstairs.

Upon reaching the room door, Shen Nian said, "I'll go in and change myself."

Lu Jiao rolled her eyes at her. "Fine, the clothes are on the bed. Change yourself. Anyway, I've completed my mission." With that, she turned around and walked downstairs in her high heels.

Shen Nian opened her bedroom door. There were three dresses on the bed. Although they were all designer brands, they looked outdated.

Although she doesn't pay attention to big brands, she still has a keen sense of design since she studied art before.

Moreover, she was very familiar with Lu Jiao's usual tricks.

Shen Nian locked the door first, and then walked towards the bed.

You should always learn from your mistakes.

Even at home, she was very careful.

She bent down, picked up the dress from the bed, and looked at it.

really,

Not only is the style outdated, but it's also incredibly old-fashioned.

Lu Jiao herself probably wouldn't even know how to wear it.

Shen Nian picked up one of the black dresses and found a pair of scissors in the room.

Without hesitation, I started cutting.

Soon, the black dress in her hand underwent a complete transformation.

She put down the scissors with satisfaction and changed into a dress.

He looked at himself in the mirror and smiled confidently.

They don't want to stand out; they want to embarrass themselves.

She deliberately stole Shen Ximan's thunder.

Shen Nian changed into a dress, did her makeup, and styled her hair in a high bun, revealing her beautiful, slender, and fair neck, just like a swan's.

Although her neck was completely bare, it made her even more eye-catching.

She opened the door and walked downstairs.

As soon as it appeared at the top of the stairs, it attracted the attention of everyone below.

Most of the attendees at the banquet were long-term partners of the Shen Group.

They all knew Shen Nian's identity.

Her sudden and stunning appearance sparked a flurry of discussion among the crowd below.

"Is this Shen Nian? She's grown up to be so beautiful, and she looks just like her mother."

"Yes, Mr. Shen is really lucky. Both of his daughters are so beautiful."

"However, Miss Shen Nian has a better temperament than the other one. After all, she was raised outside and could never develop the temperament of a well-bred lady."

"That's true. I've watched Miss Shen Nian grow up since she was a child. She's truly proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. In the past, she would personally paint and play the piano to celebrate President Shen's birthday."

"Yes, yes, I remember too."

"Looking at it this way, the current Miss Shen is a bit too vulgar, huh?"

......

The whispers reached Shen Ximan's ears. She clenched her fists in anger, her nails digging into her palms, her eyes fixed on Shen Nian as she gracefully walked down the stairs.

"Shen Nian, you little slut, you actually altered your dress yourself. What kind of refined lady are you? You've already climbed into someone else's bed."

Shen Ximan felt a little better when she thought about how Shen Nian had been...

Standing next to her, Chu Yunyi was also amazed by Shen Nian's appearance.

He had always known that Shen Nian was beautiful, after all, her mother was a famous beauty.

He stared blankly at the people coming down from upstairs, momentarily dazed.

She thought to herself, "Niannian, why do you demean yourself like this? If only you were still the pure person you used to be, but alas..."

After Shen Nian came downstairs, many people took the initiative to greet her.

Lu Jiao stared at the clothes she was wearing, momentarily stunned.

At first glance, no one recognized that the clothes Shen Nian was wearing were the ones she had prepared.

Others praised, "President Shen is so lucky! Both of his daughters are so beautiful. He can pick any son-in-law he wants."

"There will be more wine than we can finish drinking in the future."

Shen Guoqiang glanced at Shen Nian, and was overjoyed to hear everyone's compliments.

"Haha, Niannian is still young, no rush, no rush."

"He's not young anymore, just over twenty. I wonder if my son will have the good fortune to be with her," someone said with a smile, wanting to introduce their son to Shen Nian and open up another connection with the Shen Group.

"Haha, that's really unfortunate. Niannian was engaged to the young master of the Chu family a long time ago," Shen Guoqiang replied with a hearty laugh.

The other party was surprised that Shen Nian was already engaged, and laughed to smooth things over, saying, "Too late, too late, hahaha."

Just then, Shen Ximan and Chu Yunyi walked over.

Upon seeing Chu Yunyi, the man immediately said, "Oh, Young Master Chu is here. You can chat with your family." Then he walked away.

"You young people should chat more," Shen Guoqiang said, pulling Lu Jiao away.

Shen Nian didn't really want to talk to the two people in front of her and decided to go out for some fresh air.

Chu Yunyi grabbed her arm, "Niannian~"

"What is it?" Shen Nian turned her head and asked coldly.

"How did you get here? Why didn't you call so I could pick you up?" Chu Yunyi said.

"No need to trouble Young Master Chu," Shen Nian said expressionlessly.

“Niannian, what do you mean by this? Yunyi is just concerned about you. Are you going to misinterpret everyone’s good intentions?” Shen Ximan chimed in from the side.

Shen Nian turned to look at Shen Ximan, her cold gaze making Shen Ximan tremble.

Shen Nian said to her, "None of your business."
