Chapter 118: Chapter 118: The Groom Ran Away on His Wedding Night 29

Lv Ling had just seen Shen Chi yesterday and recognized the voice, causing his expression to change immediately, quickly rolling up his sleeves.

That guy actually dared to come again?

Now he’s very satisfied with Ah Yin.

Lin Shumei’s expression was hard to describe; even as President Lv, how could he still be so childish?

Ah Yin didn’t know Shen Chi, but a man coming to see Sister Ah Chen so early in the morning seemed off, and his usually gentle and friendly demeanor became irritable. Most of the time, it was fine, but just the thought of anyone coveting Sister Ah Chen made him lose control.

Ah Chen pressed his hand, “Eat breakfast.”

“I’ll go send him away.”

Ah Chen stood up, and Ah Yin, refusing to eat breakfast, stood up and held onto her tightly, afraid she might disappear. That thought arose again, and he pursed his lips to control it, holding her hand carefully for fear of hurting her by mistake.

Ah Chen didn’t let go of him either; he was always like this.

Standing outside the Lv Family home was Shen Chi, who had thought a lot last night and on the way here. He felt it would be a great regret to just miss Lv Chen like that.

Though Lv Chen was ruthless yesterday, there’s a saying that love turns to hate.

If Lv Chen didn’t love him first, how could she hate or loathe him? She must have liked him once, and if he admits his mistakes and shows his determination to live a good life with her, she might have a change of heart. It’s often said that women’s hearts are soft, and as long as he admits his faults sincerely, she surely…

Shen Chi’s thoughts were interrupted as the Lv Family’s front gate opened.

He watched nervously, clutching the roses in his hands.

Yes, he went to town early in the morning to buy flowers, which had just been delivered to the florist; they were very fresh and beautiful, wrapped urgently by the shopkeeper.

Shen Chi had many things to say, but couldn’t utter a single word, because standing next to Lv Chen was a tall and exceptionally handsome young man. A shirt on top and dress pants below, even wearing slippers, one could still tell this man was extraordinary, certainly successful in his career. The watch on his wrist, Shen Chi didn’t recognize, but he still thought it wasn’t something an average person could afford.

Most importantly, he was holding Lv Chen’s hand tightly.

Coming back to his senses, Shen Chi, in anger and shame, raised his voice, “So you’ve been involved with someone else for a while, no wonder you were so cold yesterday. And I thought you were sincere, just sulking, coming to find you today.”

He felt betrayed, for the second time.

Ah Chen smiled faintly, “Shen Chi, who do you think you are! You, who ran away on your wedding day, have no right to say this.”

“What do you mean by coming to find me? Do you think coming to find me is charity? How long has it been since you looked in the mirror? Overconfident.” At this, Ah Chen kindly reminded, “You seem to be 33, right? Almost 40, be more rational. Do you think you still have the capital to make someone wholeheartedly devoted with just one word? You’re not a sought-after item, not worth anything.”

Ah Chen toyed with Ah Yin’s hand, saying casually, “We just started dating last night, you better not ruin his reputation.”

The irritation in Ah Yin’s body dissipated.

So this is Shen Chi?

He edged closer to Ah Chen, looking down at the other party, thinking there’s nothing about him that could compete, given his age, he felt relieved.

“If you know what’s good for you, hurry up and leave. Don’t make a fool of yourself here, or you’ll just be asking for trouble.” Ah Chen advised seriously.

Though Ah Yin hadn’t turned into a hooligan, his temper wasn’t great either, just more restrained in front of her. He wouldn’t do anything excessive, but he had plenty of ways to make someone uncomfortable.

But if Shen Chi didn’t provoke him, Ah Yin wouldn’t do anything extra.

Shen Chi’s face turned beet red, lips trembling, he finally turned around to leave, throwing a sentence behind, “I guess I’m being self-indulgent.”

Then he hurriedly left.

“Good that you know.” Ah Chen’s voice drifted over, causing Shen Chi’s eyes to turn red with anger.

“Still watching what?” Ah Chen pulled Ah Yin inside, “Let’s go back for breakfast.”

“Have you been eating well lately?”

Ah Yin replied, “Yes.”

He often skipped meals when busy, and Yuan Zhicheng, that big mouth, would inform Sister Ah Chen about it. Sister Ah Chen would call him, and he had to listen, eating every meal on time.

He specifically made Yuan Zhicheng do it!

Because the other party was so talkative.

Over the years, Yuan Zhicheng’s cooking skills improved and the food was quite delicious.

So, wherever he went, he would bring Yuan Zhicheng along.

Because Sister Ah Chen had said that outside food wasn’t healthy.

The Lv Family quickly finished their meal and went back to being busy, smiling as they left space for the two of them. Lv Ling wanted to watch a bit longer, but Lin Shumei pulled him away, giving Ah Yin a glare as they left. But that guy didn’t seem to mind, with all his attention on his sister.

“I need to visit the Yun Family.” Ah Yin suddenly said, “Some things need to be resolved too.”

Ah Chen hadn’t paid attention to the Yun Family in a long time, not caring about the people there, but Ah Yin cared a bit about Xiang Yue, so she had someone keep an eye on Xiang Yue’s safety. In reality, Xiang Yue was a smart and capable person, and after knowing the true nature of the Yun Family, she had always been cautious.

As she occasionally went mad, for years, she only caused trouble at home. The Yun Family, although annoyed, never thought she could cause any real issues, convinced that Xiang Yue, like them, couldn’t bear to see their hard work jeopardized.

If Xiang Yue had investigated anything concrete, Ah Chen hadn’t paid much attention.

Ah Yin suddenly mentioning this might mean he’s discovered something.

“She sent new information,” Ah Yin said, “asked me to go there, said she wanted to avenge me.”

He had actually been preparing to strike against the Yun Family’s industry, only lacking the right opportunity.

“Go ahead,” Ah Chen said.

After so many years, it should be settled.

“Once this matter is resolved, my focus will come back, North City will be handled by someone else.” Ah Yin’s eyes were bright, with only Ah Chen in them.

Ah Chen smiled faintly, “Whatever makes you happy.”

“Sister Ah Chen, I bought you a little something, I’ll send it back in a few days,” Ah Yin said, “though I’m leaving in the afternoon, you can open it yourself then.”

He also didn’t want to leave, but now that there was a good outcome, he wanted to quickly resolve those unimportant matters so he could always stay by her side.

Ah Chen nodded, “Okay.”

In the afternoon, Ah Yin walked out of the Lv Family home.

His look of hesitation at every step made Yuan Zhicheng’s eye twitch. Don’t be fooled by how the boss is now; once the car door closes, his face changes, quicker than flipping a book.

Seeing he was about to reach the car door, Ah Yin quickly walked back and hugged Ah Chen tight, “A hug.”

Ah Chen wrapped her arms around his waist, satisfying his wish.

Once he let go, she asked with a slight smile, “Do you want a kiss too?”

Ah Yin’s heart raced, could he?

She beckoned, signaling him to crouch down.

He hurriedly crouched, his heart pounding as if it would leap out.

She cradled his face, lightly touched his lips, and let go.

But he was a greedy person, holding her, he didn’t want to let go, reconnecting with that sweet softness.

Really didn’t want to leave.

“Wait for me.”

“Alright, I’ll wait for you.”

Ah Yin quickly returned to the car, eyes on the view outside, until she was out of sight, then closed the window.

To Yuan Zhicheng’s surprise, today’s boss was smiling the entire time inside the car, exuding a delightful aura, filling the car with warmth.

The boss has changed!

Today he actually didn’t change his expression.

And he took out his phone, browsing luxury brand websites, which were said to be accessible only to black diamond-level clients.

After selecting something, the boss started flipping through the calendar again. Sneaking a peek, it turned out to be the Chinese almanac, only the auspicious wedding dates were being selected.

Oh my gosh!

Is there really a need to rush like this? Looking so desperate.

This mood lasted until landing in Jiang City. Seeing the boss’s usual stern and cold demeanor, Yuan Zhicheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really worried the boss would keep up that silly demeanor.

As for the Shen Family, Shen Chi hadn’t mentioned his visit to Lv Chen to them.

The bouquet of roses was also quietly discarded, after which he wandered around Dengtong Town, hoping to find something he could do.

He still had a few ten thousand yuan in hand.

Thinking that returning to his hometown, he could at least start a small business, but reality was somewhat too harsh.

Mei Li had run away with someone wealthy, Lv Chen also found someone who seemed wealthy, and he too wanted to become a wealthy person.

He would succeed.

Someday, those who looked down on him would all regret it.

Today is Saturday, at noon, Wei Menglan returned home and told Jiang Hongying, “Mom, I took the afternoon off.”
