Jiang Zhan, who was lying in the hospital bed pretending to be asleep under the covers, sat up when he heard the good news about Lu Zhiwei and Ruan Jizhou: "Don't forget, I want to sit at the head table at the wedding."
The atmosphere was romantic and subtle, but Jiang Zhan's words instantly shattered the pink bubble.
Ruan Jizhou smiled and said to Jiang Zhan, "Don't worry, you'll get your share. Come on, call me brother-in-law first."
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, brother-in-law," Jiang Zhan called out sweetly.
Lu Zhiwei looked at the warm and harmonious scene before her.
This is probably the life she wants from now on.
She and Ruan Jizhou officially announced their marriage, and Shen Jinmo had no reason to bother her anymore.
Shen Shuyuan, who hates her to the core, should at least stop now.
And she can use this opportunity to find a breakthrough to deal with Shen Shuyuan.
Bang--
The ward door was kicked open from the outside.
Shen Jinmo, wearing a black casual shirt and a stern face, walked in and glanced at Ruan Jizhou with a cold gaze.
She walked straight up to Lu Zhiwei, grabbed her slender white wrist, and said, "I won't allow you to marry him. Didn't you say you didn't want to get married again? Why did you choose to marry him?"
"Shen Jinmo, let her go." Ruan Jizhou pulled Shen Jinmo's hand away from Lu Zhiwei and shoved him hard.
Despite still being injured, Shen Jinmo took a step back with just a gentle push.
The pain in my heart was tearing at me and kept spreading.
"I'm asking you a question! Lu Zhiwei!" Shen Jinmo stared at Lu Zhiwei with bloodshot eyes.
Lu Zhiwei pursed her lips and rubbed the spot where he had pinched her sore: "It's not that I will never enter into marriage again, it's just that I will never enter into marriage with you again."
"What makes you think that he can give you the happiness that I can't?" Shen Jinmo roared.
"Whether I can give it or not, time will tell," Ruan Jizhou said firmly, his gentle eyes filled with a sense of security.
Shen Jinmo ignored everything Ruan Jizhou said, his gaze fixed solely on Lu Zhiwei. His hoarse voice held a hint of pleading: "If it's because Shen Shuyuan harmed your grandmother and your brother, I can find a way to punish her, to make her wish she were dead. I will definitely give you an explanation. If it's because you want to escape from me, I can also swear I will never bother you again. Please, I beg you, don't act impulsively, okay?"
Jiang Zhan lay on his hospital bed, silently eating melon seeds.
He simply couldn't imagine that this high and mighty young master of the Shen family would be so humble and subservient when pursuing his wife.
“I will never change my mind once I’ve made a decision. I will have An Yang contact the media to announce the marriage between the Lu and Zhou families.” After saying that, Lu Zhiwei gestured for him to leave.
Shen Jinmo bit her lip tightly, her eyes burning with resentment, "Lu Zhiwei, you are really cold-blooded."
After saying that, Shen Jinmo turned and walked out of the ward.
He stomped heavily over the bouquet of lilies he had brought to the ward entrance, crushing them into mud.
Just like their relationship.
It's shattered into pieces; how can it be pieced back together?
The news of the marriage alliance between the two families shocked the entire Yunzhou.
The wedding date has been set for three months from now.
Both families belong to the top wealthy families in Yunzhou, and the wedding preparations are extremely complicated, so they chose a date three months from now.
In addition, Lu Zhiwei wanted to wait until Jiang Zhan fully recovered so that she could witness him step into a new happiness.
That night.
The Zhou family villa was brightly lit, and the whole family was busy preparing for an extremely important dinner.
This was Lu Zhiwei's first time attending a family banquet at the Zhou family's home.
Zhou Zhengting took it very seriously and even went to the sanatorium in person to bring Ruan Qin back to the Zhou family.
The Zhou family was about to have a happy occasion, so Ruan Qin naturally gave them face and moved back to the Zhou family home from the sanatorium.
It was seven o'clock on a summer evening, just as night was falling.
A black Rolls-Royce pulled into the large courtyard. Ruan Jizhou got out of the car first, walked to the passenger seat, and helped Lu Zhiwei out of the car.
Today, Lu Zhiwei wore a loose white dress paired with white flats, looking fresh and elegant.
Lu Zhiwei also prepared a generous gift for each of the Zhou family elders in the trunk.
Ruan Jizhou personally opened the trunk and carried her into the Zhou family's house.
Zhou Zhengting and Ruan Qin, who were waiting in the sofa area, quickly got up to greet them upon hearing that they had arrived.
"Hello, Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou." Lu Zhiwei greeted them politely.
Ruan Qin and Zhou Zhengting liked her very much. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, they led her to sit on the sofa.
The family atmosphere in the Zhou family was completely different.
It was the kind of warm and natural place she longed for.
After settling Lu Zhiwei in, Ruan Jizhou put on an apron and went to the kitchen to show off his cooking skills.
Lu Zhiwei and Ruan Qin were chatting about women's topics at the dining table. Zhou Zhengting felt he couldn't join in, so he volunteered to go to the kitchen and cook a dish.
"Aunt Ruan, I've had a question for a long time." This question had been lingering in her mind for a long time.
Ruan Qin held her small hand and smiled kindly, saying, "Ask me anything."
"You and Uncle Zhou love each other very much, so why did you choose to stay at home and be taken care of by him when you were sick, instead of staying in a nursing home by yourself for so many years?"
Ruan Qin's smile froze instantly. Then she patted the back of her hand: "My illness came on suddenly. Back then, your Uncle Zhou put aside his drug research and insisted on taking me abroad for treatment. Those were the most critical years for the Zhou family. He treated curing my illness as an obsession, and that obsession became a torment, causing his research data to go wrong and almost resulting in a death. Patients from the clinical trials came to the Zhou family to cause trouble, and the Zhou family almost collapsed. It was at that time that I decided to leave the Zhou family and no longer be a burden to him. I wanted to find a place to die quietly. It's just a pity that I've had so many relapses, but I've never actually died."
