Chapter 16 Engagement Day (Thursday)
There is no doubt that Shen Xing is of course an adult, and he has obtained a university diploma not long ago, but in the eyes of many people, Shen Xing is conspicuously dressed and carefree. Okay, in their minds they seem to still have the image of the little bully who would start a fight if they disagreed with someone.
And because Gu Chuan was so mature and steady among his peers, he made the little cousin following him look more like a child who didn't understand anything.
But now, this child, who in the eyes of many people knew nothing, was holding the hand of a girl who had only dared to look at her back secretly during his teenage years and into his youth.
Destiny is so amazing.
Shen Xing ran in a hurry. Ever since he received the call, he fell into an extremely frightening panic. This panic was no less than when he took Chu Yan out of the water before.
Many ideas popped up in his mind, and many possibilities were played out, but in the end there was only one result, and that was that Chu Yan would leave him without looking back.
Fear and uneasiness struck together, causing him to hold her hand involuntarily, and the strength in his hand grew faintly. He wanted to hold Chu Yan and escape from here immediately, but he couldn't.
Because Chu Yan was looking at him and smiling.
It's the kind of smile that makes you unconsciously feel reassured and happy when you see someone you trust.
She stepped into this dreamy kingdom of white roses, and strange confusion and fear enveloped her body. Then he appeared, and she suddenly found her direction, and all her uneasiness was swept away.
Gao Fei could feel something was wrong in the atmosphere, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Not only was Shen Xing wrong, but one of the previous protagonists, Gu Chuan, was also wrong.
Chu Yan asked: "Today is your cousin's engagement party. Did I come at the wrong time? How about I leave first."
He kept saying that they had been dating for many years and were even engaged as an unmarried couple. When they came to this place full of friends and relatives, he let her leave without saying a word. What was this?
Shen Xing has never had such a strong realization that he is really nothing.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Chu Yan didn't want to embarrass him, so she whispered, "I can leave alone."
"No." Before weighing the pros and cons in his head, Shen Xing had already made a decision. He bent down and looked at her closely, showing a bright smile, "My parents are here too. They must want to meet you."
Chu Yan thought that since they were engaged, they must have met their parents, but she had forgotten that there were many people here. She was very nervous, afraid that she would not perform well in front of his parents.
"I... Shen Xing..." Chu Yan grasped the corner of his clothes tightly, "I don't remember them..."
Shen Xing stroked her face, "It's okay, I'm here."
Gao Fei next to him gave an unexpected look. He finally understood where the sense of disobedience started from the day Shen Xing said he had a girlfriend.
The people around Chu Yan, the Shen Xing they said was completely different from the Shen Xing he knew. Chu Yan said she couldn't remember - she had lost her memory! ?
Combined with Shen Xing's reaction, maybe Chu Yan is not his girlfriend after all!
Gao Fei was extremely shocked. He knew that Shen Xing had no principles, but he never thought that Shen Xing's character was so low. He wanted to call Shen Xing out to question him quickly, but the time and place were not suitable.
Gao Fei also has a sister in his family. His sister is getting married. If his sister is cheated by a man, he will definitely want to beat her up!
How could Shen Xing bully a girl!
Shen Xing's parents were naturally paying attention to the situation here. They saw Shen Xing behaving intimately with a girl they had never seen before, and their hearts were beating fast.
You must know that they are all convincing themselves that Shen Xing may bring a man home one day, or that Shen Xing will go home with a man, but now that he is holding a girl's hand and walking over, these parents even think that he is too I wanted a daughter-in-law, so I had hallucinations.
As Shen Xing held Chu Yan's hand and led her closer to the guest seat, more and more people noticed the young couple walking slowly towards them.
This is not because many people know Chu Yan’s identity, but because Shen Xing is a “legend” in the circle. Of course, these two words have a derogatory meaning. Shen Xing has done too many ridiculous things, and it can be said that no one has Don't know.
The guests who originally paid attention to the protagonist of the engagement party couldn't help but look to the other side.
"Who is that girl?"
"Is she Shen Xing's girlfriend? She's quite pretty."
"Which lady is from that family? I've never seen her before."
The side where the students gathered knew more, and the female students' intuition was more accurate. They couldn't help but stand up and cover their mouths in surprise.
Mr. Gu was chatting with his business partners when he suddenly saw his wife beside him dropping her wine glass in excitement. He wondered, "What's wrong?"
Mrs. Gu stared at Chu Yan and said nothing.
Mr. Gu has never met Chu Yan because Gu Chuan has never brought Chu Yan home. However, Mrs. Gu has investigated Chu Yan and looked for Chu Yan. What impressed her most was that this girl was difficult to deal with.
"Mrs. Gu, as long as Gu Chuan is still willing to be with me, I will not leave him."
Chu Yan did what she said. She did not give up on Gu Chuan. It was not until the day when Gu Chuan proposed to break up that she packed up her things and left. Mrs. Gu never denied that she hated Chu Yan, but she also had an inexplicable understanding that once Chu Yan left Gu Chuan, she would definitely not come back, but why did she appear now?
"Dad, Mom."
Shen Xing actually called his parents in a polite manner instead of insulting the old man and old woman. Father Shen and Mother Shen stood up flattered. They were more nervous than Chu Yan.
She was afraid that this girl would dump him after knowing what kind of character her son was.
Shen Xing said: "Yanyan and I said that we will become a family in the future. You are both easy to get along with and you will like her very much."
Chu Yan didn't understand why so many eyes were focused on her, and she felt a little reserved. But facing her elders, she still allowed herself to smile politely, "Uncle, aunt..."
"We are all going to be a family. What are we called uncle and aunt? Good boy, we call you mom and dad." Mother Shen immediately took Chu Yan's hand enthusiastically, and Ma Liu took off a bracelet from her wrist and gave it to Chu Yan. He went up and said, "This is the heirloom passed down from our family to our daughter-in-law. If you take it, she will become our daughter-in-law."
Father Shen was amazed.
Mother Shen winked and had the girl trapped, so she felt at ease!
Chu Yan didn’t know if she could accept it, so she raised her eyes for help.
Shen Xing touched the top of her head and grinned, "Keep it."
Chu Yan smiled again and said to the elder: "Thank you."
Shen's mother became more and more satisfied as she looked at her. She felt that this girl was pretty, generous and comfortable, but she seemed to have a quieter temperament. She didn't know if she would be bullied by Shen Xing in the future.
Chu Yan treasured the bracelet on her wrist, but she was too thin and the bracelet was a bit big for her. Shen Xing saw it and held her hand, "I will go to the jewelry store to have it changed in the future."
She smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Unexpectedly, she came into contact with that silent gaze.
Shen Xing also looked at Gu Chuan. He then looked at Song Xueyuan next to Gu Chuan, as well as Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu sitting at the guest table. He was sure that Gu Chuan was a decent person. He smiled and said to Chu Yan Said, "This is my cousin and his fiancée. Although they haven't received the certificate yet, they have a good relationship, so we call them cousin."
Chu Yan asked: "Then shall we go to congratulate?"
Shen Xing hesitated for a while and asked, "Want to go?"
Chu Yan thought about it for a while. Cousins were not distant relatives. We might have the opportunity to meet each other often in the future. It seemed inappropriate not to express our preferences, so she nodded, "I want to go."
Shen Xing said: "Then let's go there."
Song Xueyuan watched them approaching step by step, her heart rising to her throat.
Gu Chuan and Chu Yan were together not for one or two years, but for seven years.
A full seven years, covering almost all of his youthful years.
The more frightened Song Xueyuan became, the more she couldn't help but hug Gu Chuan's arm tightly. Fortunately, Gu Chuan never thought of pushing her away.
"Cousin, cousin, I wish you a happy engagement." Shen Xing said congratulations calmly, then faced Gu Chuan's dark and unclear eyes, held Chu Yan's hand tightly, and raised the corners of his lips to introduce, "This is My fiancée."
Chu Yan didn't know what their names were, so she arched her eyebrows, smiled quietly, and said with her boyfriend: "Congratulations, cousin, cousin."
Some of the guests couldn't help but make an uproar, but quickly controlled themselves.
As one of the people who knew about that past, Fu Juan couldn't help but cover his mouth, whether he was laughing or making a sound in surprise.
This scene is simply unprecedentedly exciting.
Song Xueyuan looked at Gu Chuan nervously.
Gu Chuan's face was expressionless, his calm gaze fell on the hands held by the two people, and the dull feeling accumulated in his chest became more and more heavy.
There was a feeling called "betrayal" surging in his blood.
This must be because of Shen Xing, who has been with him since he was a child and is regarded as his younger brother, not because of Chu Yan, who has been put down by him long ago.
Absolutely, no.
