My Ex-Wife Disappeared for Years and Had My Babies-Chapter 120 - 96: Snatching Auntie’s Man

Chapter 120: Chapter 96: Snatching Auntie’s Man

She glanced at the clock in the front of the car; it was nearly twelve, and the time for that highly anticipated engagement party was fast approaching.

Unable to help herself, Su Nian broke the silence and asked him, “Your engagement party is about to start.”

He freed up his gaze to look at her once, then stared straight ahead at the road, and said indifferently, “I thought you didn’t care.”

“Are you taking me to attend it now?” Letting her witness his and Su Yalan’s grand engagement party…

However, before she could ponder further, she heard him chuckle subtly and say, “You’re overthinking it.”

Su Nian looked forward again. The tree-lined road was straight, and in the distance, one could vaguely see the great river.

This place seemed not unfamiliar, as if it was here that they spent their first Valentine’s Day after getting married.

The long bridge not far away was known to the locals as Magpie Bridge, and every Qixi Festival, it became a must-visit for couples.

The car stopped by the roadside, likely the luxury of the Phantom drawing many gazes.

Before opening the car door, Shen Hanxiu tossed her a pair of sunglasses, and then picked up another pair and put them on himself.

The buildings on both ends of the bridge were full of Jiangnan charm, and under the blazing sun, couples still used oil-paper umbrellas.

Watching the passing couples hand in hand, intimate lovers, Su Nian felt so out of place here.

A divorced couple spending Qixi Festival together at Magpie Bridge, they might be the first.

As Su Nian watched the couples pass by in a daze, she suddenly felt a pair of hands wrap around her waist, and a warm chest pressed against her side: “Shall we eat first?”

His questions were always merely that, not waiting for Su Nian’s response, he had already wrapped his arms around her and walked away.

…

Inside Century Park, the grand engagement party was a mess.

There were more media than guests, and yet, after being hyped up for half a month, the grand wedding saw no sign of the groom.

Hearing from Deng Tonglian that Shen Hanxiu had been taken away by Su Nian, Su Yalan panicked, “Mom, the media are all waiting, what do we do now?”

“It looks like Ah Shu is determined not to come, but…” Liu Yuyuan paused as she looked at Su Yalan before saying, “Yalan, this is just a delaying tactic for now, just do as I say.”

“What should I do?”

“Announce that Shen Hanxiu won’t be coming, and emphasize that he’s with your niece Su Nian right now, the reports we intercepted earlier can be put to use now.”

Su Yalan was somewhat against such an approach: “But Mom, if we acknowledge that Shen Hanxiu likes Su Nian, then I’ll have no chance with Ah Shu in the future!”

“What else can we do now? Only by doing this can we aim the spearhead at Su Nian, and you’ll have a way out, and you’ll be the beneficiary anyway. For now, just follow Mom’s advice, we’ll deal with what comes after, later.”

Su Yalan was struggling to decide, hesitating, and then finally nodded: “Okay…”

Liu Yuyuan smiled reassuringly, asking, “You know what to do, right?”

“I know.”

…

Half an hour later, under the anxious anticipation of the media, the lady of the engagement party showed up.

By now, half an hour had passed since the expected time of the wedding banquet.

When Su Yalan went on stage, it was still Liu Yuyuan who helped her, holding a tissue in one hand, crying and wiping her tears, looking like she had been greatly wronged.

Her appearance naturally drew the media’s attention quickly, turning the engagement party into a press conference straight away.

Everyone had been watching the live broadcast of the wedding, and seeing that something had gone wrong, they became even more glued to their TV screens.

“Ms. Su, may I ask what happened?”

“Ms. Su, has Third Young Master Shen stood you up again since he hasn’t appeared until now?”

“Ms. Su, during the period when the engagement news was released, Third Young Master Shen has never made an appearance; are there cracks in your relationship?”

“Ms. Su…”
