Yu Jing glanced at the people in the living room, smiled and said to Gu Ye, "I just said that too. Hurry up and change your shoes and come inside. What are you carrying? All those bags and packages."
"These are gifts that Sheng Sheng and I brought back for you and Uncle Shang from the Maldives."
As Gu Ye spoke, he handed the items to Yu Jing.
Yu Jing looked surprised and glanced at Yu Sheng, who was bending down to change into slippers, and asked, "You went to the Maldives? When did you go?"
"It was about two weeks ago, and I just got back yesterday."
Upon hearing Gu Ye's words, Yu Jing's initial concerns vanished.
The fact that this young couple can go to the Maldives means they're all fine. If they were having problems, they wouldn't be in the mood to have fun.
Thinking of this, Yu Jing handed the gift to Wang Ma, took Yu Sheng's arm and said, "You're such a tight-lipped girl, you didn't even tell me you were going out to play. What? Are you afraid I'll come along and disturb your time with Gu Ye?"
Yu Jing's teasing made Yu Sheng feel disgusted.
She knew that she said this on purpose to show off how good her relationship with Gu Ye was in front of the Shang family and Li Susu.
But doesn't she have any idea what their relationship is really like?
not to mention--
Whether Gu cheated on her with Jiang Jiang or Qiao Moya, Shang Yan knew everything!
Showing off how loving she and Gu Ye were in front of him was nothing short of humiliating herself.
Yu Sheng was extremely ashamed and embarrassed, and didn't dare to look Shang Yan in the eye. She could only see him sitting on the sofa looking at his phone out of the corner of her eye, completely ignoring her and Gu Ye's arrival.
After being led into the living room by Yu Jing, she greeted Shang Shichang, Shang Yan, and Li Susu, and said, "Will our sudden arrival disturb your conversation? If it is, we..."
Before Yu Sheng could finish speaking, Shang Shichang interrupted her: "You've come at the right time. Help me persuade your brother."
Yu Sheng glanced at Shang Yan, who was still looking at his phone, with a puzzled look, and asked Shang Shichang in a low voice, "What are you trying to persuade me of?"
Shang Shichang glanced at Shang Yan and Li Susu and said, "Your brother and Susu are getting married."
The moment Yu Sheng learned that Shang Yan and Li Susu were there, she guessed why they had come.
Even so, she still felt a little uncomfortable when Shang Shichang said those words.
She didn't know why she felt unwell, nor did she have time to investigate. Seeing that Shang Shichang's expression wasn't cheerful but rather clouded with worry, she asked in confusion:
"Isn't this a good thing? But Uncle Shang's tone sounds like he's having some kind of trouble?"
Shang Shichang sighed and said, "We're family, so I won't hide it anymore. The reason your brother and Susu decided to get married so quickly is because Susu is pregnant."
I discussed it with Su Su's parents, and we originally wanted to postpone their wedding until closer to the New Year, taking advantage of the festive atmosphere.
But Yao Yao had to go to Argentina for a competition those few days and wouldn't be able to come back, so A Yan wanted to postpone the wedding until after the New Year. Su Su's parents were worried that if they postponed it until after the New Year, and people found out that Su Su was pregnant out of wedlock, they would be ridiculed.
At this point, Shang Shichang glanced at Shang Yan, sighed, and said in a rather helpless tone:
"But Ayan insists on waiting until after the New Year when Yaoyao returns to China to hold the wedding. I can understand the feelings between the siblings, but this concerns his lifelong happiness, as well as the reputation of the Li family and Susu..."
But your brother won't listen, so the wedding date has been stuck indefinitely. Now that you're back, could you please help me persuade your brother?
Yu Sheng felt that Shang Shichang either overestimated her or was grasping at straws in desperation.
But he had already said it, and it wouldn't be good for her not to say anything, but she didn't know what to say.
She looked at Shang Yan, who was still looking at his phone, nervously clenched her hands, and mustered up her courage to call out "Brother." Before she could finish speaking, Shang Shichang said, "You two siblings can go to my study to talk."
Upon hearing this, Yu Sheng quickly said, "It's alright, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shang Yan had already gotten up and walked upstairs while looking at his phone.
While Yu Sheng was still in a daze, Yu Jing urged her, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go."
Although Yu Jing had little hope that Yu Sheng would persuade Shang Yan, what if he succeeded?
Then Shang Shichang must remember the good things about the mother and daughter, right?
Urged on by Yu Jing, Yu Sheng got up and walked upstairs in a daze.
Her feet felt like they were stepping on cotton as she walked on the stairs; her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to leap out of her mouth.
She didn't know how she got upstairs; in any case, when she came to her senses, she was already in the study, where Shang Yan, who had been looking down at his phone, was sitting on the sofa watching her.
His eyes looked strange, tinged with sadness. He didn't look like a groom about to get married; he looked more like a man who had lost his beloved!
