Chapter 851 Xu Chen's Suspicion
Thinking about this made Xu Chen feel restless and anxious, as if something was blocking his heart, making him very uncomfortable.
Lu Nanchu frowned, displeased with his actions: "This is the stage, with so many guests watching. Are you sure you want to discuss this with me here?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the fierceness in Xu Chen's eyes lessened considerably, and his thin lips finally pressed against her red lips.
The moment their lips touched, ribbons danced like snowflakes, and applause erupted from the guests, bringing the wedding to a perfect close.
After the ceremony, at the wedding banquet, Lu Nanchu, the bride, and Xu Chen, the groom, were required to toast according to the customs of the capital. Wen Qingyi and Gong Lian sat at one table, next to Bo Jinyan and Sang Ruo's table, which were very close to each other.
As they were toasting, Sang Ruo and Bo Jinyan raised their glasses to clink them together, when they heard a familiar voice beside them: "Brother Ayan, come, let me toast you too."
Sang Ruo turned her head and saw Wen Qingyi walking towards Bo Jinyan with a wine glass in her hand. She looked displeased, but said nothing.
On the contrary, Bo Jinyan, upon seeing her raise her wine glass, put it down again, even though he had already raised it.
Although he didn't say anything, his gestures and movements already conveyed a sense of rejection.
"Brother Ayan?" Wen Qingyi looked at him, her expression revealing a hint of grievance: "Brother Ayan, can't you forgive me yet?"
She has not seen Bo Jinyan since he released her.
During her time working as a maid in the Gong family, she missed him very much. Didn't he miss her too?
Upon hearing this, Bo Jinyan sneered and glanced at her sideways: "What have you done that I should forgive?"
The thought of what she had done to Xiao Ruo filled him with a burning rage; he wanted nothing more than to tear her to pieces!
He hates her so much, how could he possibly forgive her so easily?
"Brother Yan..." Wen Qingyi was extremely aggrieved. Before she could finish speaking, her waist was already possessively embraced by a pair of large hands. Gong Lian's voice, which was not smiling, fell in her ear: "President Bo, Yiyi has already raised her glass to toast you. Why don't you do her a favor?"
Bo Jinyan's brows seemed to furrow even more tightly: "Gong Lian, there are some things that others may not know, but don't you know? We both know why I'm unwilling to give her face. I don't think I'm generous enough to take someone else's life to make a profit from their expense."
Who this "other person" refers to is something everyone knows perfectly well.
He was unwilling, but Gong Lian did not force him. He simply pulled Wen Qingyi to Lu Nanchu and greeted her, "Miss Lu, I'm sorry, I have something to attend to today and may have to leave early. I am very sorry for what happened at the wedding. If Miss Lu needs anything, please feel free to call me anytime."
After saying this, Gong Lian didn't care what Xu Chen thought and directly pulled Wen Qingyi away.
But his words were like a boulder thrown into Xu Chen's heart, stirring up huge waves. He narrowed his eyes, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Gong Lian and Lu Nanchu, but because of the occasion, he did not voice the doubts in his heart.
After the wedding, everyone had different thoughts. Some were watching the show, while others were jealous. But after the wedding, the fact that Gong Lian liked Mrs. Bo, Sang Ruo, spread far and wide.
That evening, after the wedding, the guests had long since left, but it was only now that Lu Nanchu and Xu Chen were able to go back.
According to the agreement between the two families, Xu Chen was to marry into the Lu family, so naturally he had to return to the Lu family villa with Lu Nanchu.
Upon returning, Xu Chen couldn't help but question, "Nan Chu, how far have things progressed between you and Gong Lian? Why do you still have Gong Lian's phone number?"
“Gong Lian is a rising business tycoon in recent years. Is there a problem with me having his contact information?” Lu Nanchu felt that his questioning came out of nowhere: “Xu Chen, put away your jealousy! Your heart is no longer with me, so stop pretending to be so deeply in love.”
She found it disgusting.
He's having an ambiguous relationship with Wen Qingyi on one hand, and he's also jealous of her on the other.
Upon hearing this, Xu Chen narrowed his eyes: "So, you're very familiar with him? How familiar? To the point where you tell each other everything?"
Judging from the way Gong Lian greeted her just now, it seemed that he only saw Lu Nanchu and didn't even see the groom!
Could it be that they're colluding in some way?
Otherwise, he really couldn't think of any reason why Gong Lian would respect her so much!
"You want to know? Then go and find out for yourself!" Lu Nanchu didn't need to tell him these things: "You're asking me here, do you think I'll tell you these things? Don't forget, things are no longer the same between us. Now there's only self-interest left, no feelings."
Even if there were feelings left, those feelings had long been exhausted by his many experiences of treating Wen Qingyi so well after he returned to China.
No feelings?
Xu Chen, noticing her choice of words, clearly did not believe her: "We've gone from school uniforms to wedding dresses, how many years of feelings have we invested in each other? And you're telling me there are no feelings? Are you kidding me?"
The relationship between her and him wasn't built in a day or two; it was a relationship that had been nurtured over many years. How could it just disappear like that?
Lu Nanchu didn't speak, but the impatience in her eyes was obvious.
"Oh, I see. You've fallen for Gong Lian, that's why you told me you had no feelings for him, right?" Xu Chen thought of the kiss at the wedding today, and his heart was torn apart by jealousy. "Just like that kiss at the wedding today, you and he have an affair!"
Otherwise, how could she have let him see that scene at the wedding!
Upon hearing this, Lu Nanchu felt that he was just making excuses: "Are you ever going to stop? That kiss at the wedding was forced on me by Gong Lian! So many eyes saw it, how could I fake it?"
Since he doesn't trust her at all, why bother with these things?
Why don't you just go find Wen Qingyi?
“Yes, you can’t fake it. Although you slapped him, that doesn’t change the fact that you two are very close.” Xu Chen was also a man and could see that they were indeed very familiar with each other. “Nan Chu, tell me the truth, are you hiding something from me?”
He always felt that she was hiding something from him, and more than one thing.
Just like his plan to sell their New York apartment—he did it flawlessly, but she still found out in the end…
Did no one tip her off during all this?
He was really suspicious.
If this person exists, who would they be?
