I Became Super Rich After Resigning-Chapter 141 - Crown Prince Consort Shi Yi

Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Crown Prince Consort Shi Yi

Gao Yang’s matchmaking targets were all married; she likely wouldn’t lean towards becoming a homewrecker, nor would she so blatantly sacrifice her own reputation for publicity.

Yuan Xi finished decorating the bridal room around ten o’clock at night and, seeing the preliminary results, she descended the stairs upon hearing Huo Shiyuan’s voice.

Huo Shiyuan wrapped Yuan Xi in his arms, saying, “It’s late now, come help again tomorrow.”

Yuan Xi responded, “Hmm, Shitou, Yuanzi, I’m leaving now and will come back tomorrow morning to help.”

Chen Yuan glanced at the clock, “It’s already ten, quite late indeed. You should rush back to rest.”

Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyuan went out the door; the October night was a bit cold. Yuan Xi was wearing only a thin silk short-sleeved shirt. She removed the hairband from her bun, and her long hair cascaded down.

...

Huo Shiyuan took off his jacket and put it on Yuan Xi.

After she put on the jacket, Yuan Xi smiled faintly at Huo Shiyuan, “Thank you.”

Huo Shiyuan tousled Yuan Xi’s just-released hair.

Yuan Xi, covering her head, complained, “Why are you just like when you were a child? You’ve made my hair all messy.”

When they were children and Huo Shiyuan was feeling discontent, he would ruffle her hair until it was a complete mess.

She hadn’t expected that he still had that habit.

Huo Shiyuan spoke softly, “I’ve told you many times not to thank me.”

Yuan Xi whispered, “It’s just a habit of politeness.”

Huo Shiyuan reached out and pulled Yuan Xi into his arms, “Are you resting tomorrow?”

Yuan Xi, anxious that Huo Shiyuan might take advantage knowing she had no work, said: “But I have to help Yuanzi and Shitou. After all, their wedding is the day after tomorrow.”

Huo Shiyuan remarked, “When we were kids, Shitou often bullied Yuanzi. I never imagined they’d end up getting married.”

Yuan Xi laughed softly, “They probably also didn’t expect that I would marry you.”

Huo Shiyuan asked quietly, “Do you regret marrying me?”

“At least up to now, I haven’t regretted it.”

Huo Shiyuan once again messed up Yuan Xi’s long hair.

Yuan Xi raised her hands to protect her hair and looking up at Huo Shiyuan said, “What’s gotten into you today? Are you being possessed by Gu Hanchen?”

Huo Shiyuan asked, “Has he tousled your hair before?”

Yuan Xi shook her head, “No, but the way you mess up my hair is even more juvenile than Gu Hanchen.”

Huo Shiyuan: “…”

On October first, the day of Chen Yuan and Shi Lei’s wedding.

Yuan Xi woke up early, put on light makeup, changed into a dress, and went to Chen Yuan’s new house.

Chen Yuan’s newly purchased apartment complex wasn’t far from Jiangyan Villa. Although it wasn’t a high-end neighborhood, the living environment was good given it was new.

However, Mr. and Mrs. Chen seemed somewhat unaccustomed to living in an urban apartment, having lived in a spacious house in the countryside for so long, they found the urban apartments restrictive and inconvenient.

When Yuan Xi arrived at the Chen’s, Liang Suisui and Chen Fang, Chen Yuan’s biological sister, were already dressed in bridesmaid gowns.

“Sister Xiao Xi!” Chen Fang called out upon seeing Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi, hardly recognizing Chen Fang in front of her, said, “You’ve grown so much.”

“I’m in my second year of high school, Sister Xiao Xi!” Chen Fang looked at Yuan Xi’s belly, “Are you pregnant?”

Yuan Xi smiled faintly, “Yes, almost 24 weeks now.”

Liang Suisui looked at Yuan Xi, “Why didn’t Huo Shiyuan come with you?”

Yuan Xi smiled, “Shi Lei invited him to join the groomsmen; he’s coming soon for the bridal procession.”

Busy with many tasks, the wedding day proved hectic, and when the wedding car arrived for the bridal procession in the afternoon, the Chen household was filled with family and friends.

Chen Yuan didn’t set up many games, and during the tea ceremony for Mr. and Mrs. Chen, Yuan Xi saw Mrs. Chen’s eyes brimming with tears.

Even though she had watched Shi Lei grow up, she couldn’t help shedding tears at Chen Yuan’s wedding.

Chen Yuan had a hard time holding back her tears, but it was Liang Suisui and the make-up artist constantly encouraging her not to cry.

Yuan Xi couldn’t help looking out the window, thinking that at her own wedding, she probably wouldn’t have such a moment; with Yang Ying, she doubted if she could really cry….

The evening wedding, masterminded by Liang Suisui, proved to be romantic, beautiful, and humorous.

The video played at the wedding was tear-jerking, starting with childhood photos of Shi Lei and Chen Yuan. Shi Lei was short and skinny as a child.

Later on, Shi Lei gradually grew taller, and Chen Yuan also matured. They graduated from high school together, entered university together, graduated together, started working together…

At the end of the video, there was an embarrassing childhood photo of Shi Lei and Chen Yuan. What was supposed to be a touching video made all the guests break into laughter upon seeing Shi Lei’s childhood photo.

Yuan Xi, with tears in her eyes, also let out a soft chuckle.

Beside her, Huo Shiyuan said to Yuan Xi, “For our wedding, we definitely can’t let Liang Suisui plan it.”

Yuan Xi smiled.

After the wedding banquet was over, on the way home, Yuan Xi posted photos of Chen Yuan and Shi Lei on her Moments with blessings and congratulations.

Huo Shiyuan, who rarely posted on Moments, also shared something about Chen Yuan and Shi Lei’s marriage.

Yuan Xi saw a message from Yang Ying in WeChat, which she hadn’t noticed today due to being busy.

Yuan Xi opened it to see.

“Xinxin, what’s up with Gao Yang? Are you on a long vacation? Do you want to come home and stay for a few days?”

Yuan Xi replied, “No worries, the stuff about Gao Yang is just netizens making a fuss. I won’t be coming home to stay.”

Yuan Xi exited WeChat and opened the short video app, only to see that Huo Shiyuan’s online popularity was still going strong.

Under the newly-released promotional video for the Shiyi Ruohu Resort Hotel by the official account of Shiyi Group, the comments of the netizens kept coming.

“Let President Huo Shiyuan do the promotion. I’ll definitely stay there once it opens!”

“Quickly sign Gao Yang as the spokesperson for the Ruohu Resort Hotel. I want to see President Huo and Miss Gao Yang shooting ads in the hotel [shy]”

Gao Yang released a new vlog of her first day of vacation by the Ruohu lake today.

The vaguely seen Ruohu Mansion was also powerfully identified by netizens as Huo Shiyuan’s residence.

But soon enough, Gao Yang deleted the vlog.

Deleting the video spurred more speculation than not deleting would have…

Netizens were already calling Gao Yang the Crown Princess Consort Shi Yi in her comment section.

In City A.

Chu Yan, dressed in a bright red silk slip, looked at the message from Yu Fu demanding money. This was not the first time Yu Fu had asked her for money.

It started with two hundred thousand and now each time he asked, it was millions.

Chu Yan didn’t know how deep this bottomless pit was.

Chu Yan saw a news alert pop up on her phone. She clicked on it and snorted with laughter, clearing away the gloom Yu Fu had brought her.

“Yuan Xi has her days too, huh.”

Fu Yi looked at Chu Yan and asked, “What’s up?”

Chu Yan burst out laughing, “What does it matter if Yuan Xi knew Huo Shiyuan when she was a child, or that she was his childhood sweetheart? Just look at Huo Shiyuan’s expression in this interview video. He’s obviously smitten with the female host.”

“Yuan Xi should just wait to be dumped by Huo Shiyuan, haha!”

But when Chu Yan clearly saw the face of the female host, she couldn’t laugh anymore.

“How could it be her?”

Fu Yi asked, “What’s wrong?”

Chu Yan’s hand shook violently. Compared to Yuan Xi, there was no way they could allow Gao Yang to enter the Huo Family home.

Once Gao Yang received backing from Huo Shiyuan…

Chu Yan didn’t tell Fu Yi the truth, saying, “It’s nothing! It’s fine.”

Fu Yi didn’t plan to pry further. After all, he had more pressing matters to attend to, like Ren Tian…

Ren Tian had already been pregnant for over a month, and Fu Yadong had no intention of letting her off.

It was clear that Fu Yadong intended harm against Ren Tian. Ren Tian had parents and a younger brother, but it could be said that she was as if without family.

Were Ren Tian to die, no one would defend her cause, and it was unlikely that Qian Qingqing would allow Fu An’s chairman position to be burdened with a criminal charge.

Fu Yi gripped Chu Yan’s hand and said, “Yanyan, I still think we should move abroad.

With our current savings combined, we have enough to live a middle-class lifestyle overseas. You wouldn’t have to worry about being blackmailed by Yu Fu anymore, okay?”

Chu Yan responded, “No, I refuse! I won’t skulk away to a foreign country in disgrace. I can’t bear to watch those despicable people prevail over me.

Fu Yi! You promised me, you’d let me stay on top, envied as the wealthy tycoon’s daughter.”

Fu Yi closed his eyes slightly and let out a soft sigh.
