"Nan, you are so lucky. This is the first time I have ever seen such a luxurious wedding."

Upon hearing this, Nan Zhi glanced at her indifferently and said, "Is that so?"

Even Chu Chu's eyes were practically glued to Shen Xingmian, which Nan Zhi found extremely displeasing.

Lian Chuchu, oblivious to her surroundings, continued to stare at Shen Xingmian, "Mr. Shen, it's truly a blessing that Junior Sister Nan is liked by you."

Nanzhi: "......"

Shen Xingmian frowned, her tone cold and merciless, "Unfortunately, you can't have it."

Lian Chuchu's face stiffened, and she didn't know how to respond. Didn't Shen Xingmian mean that she could never have such a wedding and be treated like this?

A look of grievance immediately appeared on her face. Lian Chuchu subconsciously nudged Li Weiwei, but Li Weiwei just kept her head down and ate her food, pretending that she didn't know what Lian Chuchu meant.

When Lian Chuchu saw that Li Weiwei did not agree with her or defend her, she was furious and could only glance at Nan Zhi, feeling extremely wronged.

"Nan, I know you hate me, but how could you curse me like that?"

Nan Zhi: "......" Damn, what did she do to deserve this?

"I have never met Mr. Shen before. Why would he say such things about me? Are you deliberately whispering in his ear?"

Shen Xingmian's displeasure and impatience were evident in his expression, but as a grown man, he couldn't very well engage in banter with this woman in such a grand setting.

Nan Zhi understood this as well. If Shen Xingmian and Lian Chuchu started arguing, it would only lower their status. So she stepped forward, smiling as she looked down at Lian Chuchu sitting at the round table.

“Miss Lian, you know I hate you, yet you still keep coming up to me. I know you like any man, but Shen Xingmian is mine. He's not one of those vulgar men who have their eyes on their foreheads. So please, put away your seduction skills. They're useless.”

After speaking, Nanzhi glanced around at the people at the table and said:

"Everyone, please enjoy your meal and drinks. We'll be leaving now."

With that, he grabbed Shen Xingmian's hand and left, heading to another table.

Lian Chuchu's face flushed red and then turned pale.

Li Weiwei kept her head down as she ate, unable to suppress the smile on her lips. Now, looking at her, Nan Zhi really had a keen eye.

Now that I understand, isn't that exactly what I think? Even Chu Chu has a knack for seducing men.

It's unbelievable that this woman is now trying to get close to Shen Xingmian. Thinking back to how she used to treat her like a sister, Li Weiwei felt a wave of unease.

The others at the table whispered among themselves as they looked at Lian Chuchu. Lian Chuchu looked embarrassed, but she was seething with hatred for Nan Zhi.

But she couldn't just leave, because that would make it seem like someone had touched a raw nerve.

"Nan, how could she say that about me?"

Tears immediately streamed down Lian Chuchu's face as she tugged at Li Weiwei's clothes, "Weiwei, I... you know me, how could I do such a thing? Right?"

Li Weiwei: "......"

Forced to look up, Li Weiwei smiled and said, "Sister Chuchu, of course you are the best. How could you possibly do something to seduce men? It's just that other men find you gentle and kind, which is why they can't help but be attracted to you."

Upon hearing this, Lian Chuchu frowned. She glanced at Li Weiwei strangely, feeling that her attitude today was a bit off.

Even Chu Chu sniffled, feeling uncomfortable. "Weiwei, am I... am I being wrong? Should I not be so nice to people?"

Li Weiwei rolled her eyes inwardly, but shook her head. "Sister Chuchu, being kind is not a bad thing. You can continue to be kind."

Only then did Chu Chu feel happy, and her heart felt much more at ease.

Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian are greeting the others at this moment.

"This must be Zhizhi. Do you still recognize us?"

A middle-aged woman smiled and spoke to Nanzhi, with a man and a girl sitting on either side of her.

Nanzhi looked at her with great confusion, for she had never seen such a person before.

“I am your aunt, he is your uncle, and this is your cousin. We are your mother’s relatives.”

A woman's bright smile, if she could conceal the greed in her eyes, might make others feel a little more comfortable.

The woman patted the man next to her, gesturing to him, "Your niece is getting married, why aren't you saying anything?"

The man then smiled and looked at Nanzhi, "I am your uncle."

Nanzhi: "......"

Bai Yarou had never told her about her relatives, not even Nan Li knew. To be honest, Nan Zhi didn't know if the other party was real or fake, so she just smiled and nodded.

"This is your cousin, Bai Xiaolian."

Seeing that Nanzhi was willing to pay attention to them, the woman introduced her daughter to Nanzhi. Bai Xiaolian was quite pretty, but she looked timid and hesitant. When facing Nanzhi, she only dared to raise her head to look at her once, and then lower her head again.

Nan Zhi didn't seem to have any feelings for her. Instead, being a woman, she reached out and slapped Bai Xiaolian hard, saying, "Say hello to your cousin."

Bai Xiaolian shrank back in fear before cautiously raising her head and nodding to Nan Zhi, "Hello, cousin."

Nan Zhi frowned. Bai Xiaolian's trembling appearance stirred a sense of pity and sympathy in her heart. It was clear that this family was run by her so-called aunt. Judging from Bai Xiaolian's reaction, she must have been beaten a lot since childhood.

"cousin."

Nan Zhi smiled gently and called out to Bai Xiaolian. Bai Xiaolian was clearly surprised and excited, her eyes brightening instantly. Her gaze towards Nan Zhi was filled with great kindness and gratitude.

Nan Zhi was slightly taken aback by this look. It was very similar to Qin Xi'er's look before, except that this girl was not as happy as Qin Xi'er.

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaolian's mother's smile was incredibly bright, and she stared at Nan Zhi as she spoke:

“Your cousin seems to be close to you. If you don’t mind, ask her to stay with you for a while.”

Nanzhi: "......"

That's asking too much of her; these people are just strangers to her.

Her gaze fell on Bai Xiaolian, who was sitting at the dining table. The girl's eyes were full of hope. Nan Zhi suddenly couldn't bring herself to refuse, as if she were facing another Qin Xi'er. Finally, under her gaze, she nodded slightly, "I don't mind, if my cousin is willing."

For the first time, Bai Xiaolian smiled. "I hope you don't mind me bothering you, cousin."

Nanzhi did not linger at the table and quickly went to attend to the other guests.

After the round, Nanzhi was indeed tired, and Shen Xingmian felt sorry for her, so she told her to go and rest.

He dealt with the group of guests who came to greet him all by himself.

"Miss Nan."

Nan Zhi was only on her way to the restroom when she was stopped by a stranger. She frowned in confusion, "Who are you?"
