Chapter 352: Justified
If he could marry her, it would mean that he would no longer be Shen Yu.
It's like the rules have reached a dead end, and no matter how hard you struggle, it always seems a little unreasonable.
She understood his painstaking efforts, but she couldn't really say how happy she was about this wedding that comforted her.
"Okay, whatever you say."
Wenwan responded with a faint smile.
Shen Yu looked at her reaction and didn't seem as happy as he imagined. His brows frowned slightly.
But he said nothing and continued to serve the mother and son their meal.

Wen Wan tossed and turned in bed on her first night in this mansion.
The step-out bed in the main house is very large, and a family of three does not feel crowded at all when sleeping on it.
Yan Sui was sleeping between the two adults, lying on his back, snoring adorably.
Shen Yu lay on his side, supporting his head with one hand, his eyes fixed on Yan Sui, unable to move away.
He looked past Yan Sui and smiled at Wen Wan, "Look, your son looks like you. His facial features are really good-looking."
When I look at my son, I always look through a filter and think that everything about him is the best in the world.
Even though he was a great general, he was not immune to worldly desires. When he looked at his son, he acted just like all other fathers in the world.
Wen Wan turned around, faced him, and smiled too.
"Well, don't you even look at who gave birth to it?"
Shen Yu became more and more emotional and grabbed Yan Sui's chubby little hand to play with it.
"Xiao Wan, I originally wanted to invite Mute Po, Granny Li, and the others to attend our wedding, but firstly, the border town is too far away, and secondly, Mute Po and the others have a close relationship with me, so there's no guarantee they don't have spies around. If someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of them, it could lead to disaster."
As he spoke, he stared at Wen Wan cautiously.
"Xiao Wan, do you... regret that they didn't come to witness our wedding?"
To say I have no regrets would be a lie.
But she herself didn't have much expectations for this wedding, so she waved her hand and said, "It's okay."
Seeing this, Shen Yu was silent for a long time.
Wen Wan yawned, turned her back to him, and whispered, "It's late, go to bed."
"Yeah." Shen Yu responded, but there was no trace of sleepiness in his eyes.
He stared at Wen Wan's back for a long time.
The candle on the table burned to the end, and the flame flickered for a moment before going out completely.
Although there was no candlelight, the room was not dark. The bright moon outside the window cast a little moonlight through the window.
Shen Yu pursed his lips and said softly: "Xiao Wan, how about...this wedding be held later."
In fact, Wen Wan had not fallen asleep. Upon hearing this, her eyes widened a little, but she did not respond to him.
Shen Yu continued, "I know you're still awake. What do you think... we can postpone the wedding?"
Wen Wan sighed weakly and then turned over.
Against the light, her eyebrows and eyes were hidden in the darkness, and her voice was cautious.
"Chen Yu, I don't mean to be dissatisfied, I just..."
She hesitated for a long time but still couldn't say the rest of the words.
Her thoughts were in such a mess that even she couldn't make sense of them.
She couldn't explain what she felt in her heart. She also wanted to pretend to be happy and complete the wedding ceremony with him.
Can……
She really couldn't ignore the heavy feeling in her heart.
Maybe she was being pretentious.
"sorry."
Although she didn't know where she was wrong, she felt a little guilty that he had wasted so much effort.
Shen Yu raised his hand and stroked her cheek, saying gently: "Don't apologize, it's not your fault. It's me...I can't marry you legitimately with my true identity."
He leaned closer to Yan Sui again, with a hint of self-mockery in his tone.
"That's right. If even the wedding ceremony requires a false identity, then what's the point of this ceremony?"
Chen Yu is still Chen Yu after all, still terrifyingly sharp.
He was more open than Wen Wan had expected.
"Xiao Wan, I was distracted."
As he spoke, he added firmly in a deep voice, "Xiao Wan, give me some time. In this life, unless I die, I will marry you legitimately and let Yan Sui call me daddy!"
The depression in Wen Wan's heart was finally relieved by his promise.
She held his hand and interlocked her fingers with his.
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
The night was filled with ripples. After the two of them started talking, Wen Wan couldn't help but yawn. This time she was really sleepy.
When Shen Yu saw her sleeping, like Yan Sui, with her arms and legs spread out, he immediately shook his head lovingly.

The next morning, Shen Yu informed Agui and asked him to remove all the wedding items from the house.
Everyone who had been busy in the house for most of the month was confused.
Banyue also secretly called Agui to the woodshed.
"What exactly does your young master mean?"
Banyue put her hands on her hips. Even though she was a head shorter than Agui, she was not inferior in momentum at all.
She saw it all. The young man and Wen Wan slept in the same room last night.
If a man and a woman sleep in the same room without getting married, that is considered hooliganism for women!
It had been a long time since Agui had been stopped and questioned by a woman, and for a moment he was a little amused and helpless.
He is very skilled in fighting. Not to mention a girl like Banyue, even if there are a few big men, he can knock them down with one hand.
So Banyue's bluffing was nothing in his eyes.
But Agui knew that this maid named Banyue had taken care of Wen Wan and Yan Sui for two years, so he could not look down on her.
"Miss Banyue, don't be so anxious. Believe me, the decision to cancel the wedding suddenly was definitely not made by my young master."
Banyue didn't understand what he meant.
Agui explained, "Think about it. My son has been eagerly preparing for so long, just waiting to marry Miss Wen. If Miss Wen hadn't been unhappy, how could this wedding be cancelled?"
"You mean, my wife is unhappy?" Banyue widened his eyes.
Agui nodded, "Almost exactly."
When Banyue heard this, he became even more confused.
Not to mention that she didn't understand, even Agui couldn't figure out what was going on.
Ah Gui pondered and said, "However, Miss Wen has always been different from other girls. She must have a reason for doing this."
"I've been with Miss Wen and Young Master for a long time. Over the years, the experience I've learned is that no matter what decision they make, we can always go wrong if we follow their instructions."
"They are smarter than us. They must have their own ideas about things that we cannot figure out."
After listening to his heartfelt words, Banyue's anger dissipated a lot.
But she still felt a little unsure.
"But what woman would rather live an ambiguous life with a man than accept the status of a legitimate wife?"
Ah Gui sneered, "Miss Wen, you are not an ordinary woman. Miss Banyue, do you have any misunderstandings about your master?"
Banyue was stunned.
Ah Gui asked again, "Do you know that when your master was in the border town, he commanded a hundred border town defenders and broke out of the encirclement of a thousand-man enemy army?"
"Did you know that your master, by simply writing an article on horse breeding, doubled the number of war horses in the border town garrison?"
