Chapter 155 Setting the Wedding Date

They didn't even notice that she had been silently shouldering so much pressure, pushing herself to the limit all by herself.

"Shufen, don't worry. I'll find out whoever is talking nonsense. Remember, tell me everything that happens in the future, don't try to handle things alone. Don't push yourself too hard, it really hurts me to see you so tired. I'm here for you, everything will be alright."

Hearing his words warmed Zhou Shufen's heart.

"I'm not as fragile as you think... but I really appreciate you saying that."

She looked into Guo Zhenyi's eyes, and the corners of her mouth slightly turned up.

"I'm really fine, just a little tired. But with you here, I feel at ease."

The two chatted quietly, sharing intimate thoughts.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Shufen suddenly remembered something.

I glanced at the wall clock; it was already past 2 a.m.

She gently patted Guo Zhenyi's hand.

"Go and rest for a while. You have to get up early for work tomorrow. Don't let it interfere with your work."

Guo Zhenyi shook his head, still wanting to stay by her side.

"I won't feel at ease if you don't sleep. Be good, go lie down for a while, I'll stay here, I won't go anywhere."

He couldn't refuse her, so he agreed to lie in bed with her for a while.

If he could, he really wanted to stay by her side forever.

But reality didn't allow it; he had an important company meeting to chair the next morning at eight o'clock.

Before leaving, he secretly called Qin Guifang and asked her to come and take care of Zhou Shufen.

Qin Guifang hung up the phone and rushed to the hospital.

On the way, she thought about taking her daughter to see her mother.

Maybe it can cheer Zhou Shufen up.

So she carried the child into the ward.

"Mom, we've come to see you."

Zhou Shufen was initially very happy to learn that it was her fourth daughter-in-law who had come to visit her.

But when she saw that her swaddled granddaughter had also been brought over, her brows immediately furrowed.

"How could you take such a young child out like that? The air in the hospital is so polluted, what if he gets infected? How could you be so careless!"

Qin Guifang was not annoyed.

"It hasn't been long since I last visited you, and I've been missing you. My daughter has been talking about her grandma a lot lately. She keeps pouting and saying she wants to eat the sweet cakes that grandma makes, and she insists that I bring her here."

Upon hearing this, the coldness on Zhou Shufen's face instantly softened.

She raised her hand and gently tapped Qin Guifang's forehead.

"You're so clever and sweet-talking, I can't do anything with you. But the child is the apple of my eye, I can't be careless when we're out and about."

"From now on, when we go out with the baby, the fourth child must accompany us. It's too dangerous for one person to take care of the baby alone."

There are just too many bad people now, and the social atmosphere is not as stable as it used to be.

Qin Guifang nodded repeatedly in agreement.

She took out the food containers, fruit, and newly bought baby clothes one by one and placed them neatly on the cabinet.

“Mom, I know you enjoy design now, and I can see your passion for it. But even if you love something, you have to take care of your health. You can’t push yourself to the limit.”

She paused, remembering the nonsensical news headlines outside.

She quickly grasped her mother-in-law's hand.

“In my eyes, you are the most amazing. I don’t believe those who distort the facts, and I will not let them hurt you in the slightest. I believe that one day, everyone will see your value and the sweat and perseverance behind you.”

“You have always been my role model, not only for your career, but also for your perseverance and kindness. I also want my child to be as outstanding, talented, and principled as you in the future.”

As she spoke, she lowered her head and gently teased the baby in her arms.

I don't know if it's because my granddaughter's innocent smile is so healing.

I was deeply moved by my daughter-in-law's heartfelt words.

Zhou Shufen's mood, which had been low due to exhaustion, was suddenly reignited.

Actually, she doesn't have any major health problems.

It was just that overwork caused low blood sugar and fainting. A few days of rest and recuperation will do the trick.

Pan Yun tried several times to find out what was going on when Guo Zhenyi was not at home, but she never managed to run into him.

She later learned through inquiries that Guo Zhenyi had been leaving get off work on time almost every day recently.

It was just to have dinner with Zhou Shufen.

Upon hearing this news, an inexplicable anger flared up within her.

After much deliberation, she realized that she alone could not shake Zhou Shufen's position.

They then decided to seek outside help.

So she took a deep breath, took out her phone, and dialed the number directly.

After the phone rang a few times, Huang Chuanzhen answered it.

As soon as she heard Pan Yun's voice, she immediately began to comfort him.

"Ling, don't worry, Mom knows everything perfectly well. You're the only daughter-in-law I have, and I've always considered you the only one. As for Zhou Shufen, she has no chance at all; she can forget about stepping foot in my house!"

These words warmed Pan Yun's heart.

"mom……"

"Go ahead and do whatever you want, I'll support you."

Huang Chuanzhen spoke with certainty.

"Don't be afraid of what others say, and don't be afraid of causing trouble. That woman Zhou Shufen thinks she can turn things around with her little bit of cleverness? Dream on! Sooner or later I'll make her get lost, and no one can stop me!"

"Yes, we'll always be family."

Pan Yun responded.

The two chatted for more than half an hour before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

Pan Yun slowly put down her phone, feeling much more at ease.

Now, with the full support of her mother-in-law, Huang Chuanzhen.

She also became more confident in her actions.

She made up her mind that she could no longer remain silent and had to come forward and make her stance clear.

Not long after, under Huang Chuanzhen's covert instigation and deliberate dissemination,

The news that Pan Yun and Guo Zhenyi were about to remarry spread throughout the city.

Some people say, "No matter how good the people you bring back from outside are, they can't be relied on in the end. No one is as close as your own family."

These words, whether explicitly or implicitly, were all directed at Zhou Shufen.

They belittled her to the point of worthlessness, to the point that she could barely maintain her dignity.

Guo Zhenyi knew perfectly well what was going on.

This was definitely orchestrated by Pan Yun behind the scenes.

And his mother, Huang Chuanzhen, certainly played a part in pushing him along.

He got angrier the more he thought about it.

On one side is his mother, and on the other is the person he truly loves.

He tossed and turned all night.

Finally, he made up his mind to use the most public method to shut everyone up.

The next day, at the company's routine meeting, Guo Zhenyi addressed all employees.

"I have something to officially announce today: Zhou Shufen and I have registered our marriage, and the wedding date is set for the eighth day of next month. Everyone is welcome to come and celebrate with us."

His colleagues had previously been whispering among themselves about whether he would reconcile with his ex-wife, Pan Yun.

But upon hearing this sudden official statement, they all immediately fell silent.

Immediately afterwards, someone realized what was happening.

"Oh, congratulations, Mr. Guo! Getting married is a joyous occasion, I'll definitely do you the honor of attending!"

"Yes, yes, no one can be left out, we're all waiting to eat wedding candy!"

The meeting room quickly became lively, filled with congratulations.

On the other side, Zhou Shufen gradually heard the rumors coming from outside, and she was so upset that she couldn't speak.

This time, Pan Yun unexpectedly re-entered their lives.
