Chapter 1221: Xia Yehua’s Marriage (16)

She felt like the moment Sheng Liangchuan had slipped the beautiful ring into her finger was a dream.

He had proposed.

He had proposed to her!

Every woman dreamt of a beautiful wedding.

Walking into a church in a resplendent white dress, receiving good wishes from close friends and family.

It was no different for Qiao Lian. But ever since she married Shen Liangchuan, she had stopped fantasising about it.

She had not even taken to heart the remark that Xia Yehua had made earlier on.

They had been living together for almost a year and now they were even expecting a child, what sort of wedding could she possibly dream of?

But right now, this gesture by Shen Liangchuan had made up for all of the disappointment and regret.

With this ring, so what even if they had never had a wedding?

She, Qiao Lian, liked it like this.

As these thoughts ran through her mind, Shen Liangchuan said, “I’ve already got people to help with our wedding preparations. Let’s do this before you’re three months pregnant, while it’s not too obvious.”

Qiao Lian: …!

She looked up at Shen Liangchuan, astonished. She could hardly believe it. “What- what did you say?”

“I said that we’ll hold our wedding before Mom’s.”

A wedding… a wedding!

Her eyes lit up at once.

The wedding that she had always wanted!

Biting her lip, she looked at Shen Liangchuan and finally nodded.

They both slept soundly and sweetly that night.

Through the night and till the next morning. Since Qiao Lian had been experiencing excessive sleepiness after getting pregnant, she had been waking up later.

She got up at 9 a.m., washed up and went downstairs.

Expecting to get ready for breakfast, she saw that Xia Yehua, Shen Zihao, Xia Nuannuan and Shen Liangchuan were all sitting on the sofa.

She raised a hand to greet them, but fell silent at once when she realized that they didn’t look like their usual selves. Something was up.

Without making a noise, she made her way down and walked up to Shen Liangchuan. In a low voice, she asked, “What’s up?”

Shen Liangchuan frowned and was about to speak when Xia Nuannuan lightly tugged at her sleeves.

Qiao Lian turned around with a puzzled expression as Xia Nuannuan held out the cell phone towards her.

Qiao Lian took the cell phone and, the moment she looked, she saw the headline: [Married woman with surname Xia caused death of man’s wife, finally marrying man after years of cover up.]

The content told the story of a wealthy woman who had married a man with status and bore him two sons.

She had taken the elder son and left the family without taking a penny. From this point of the story, it was all wild guesses.

The woman had left the family without any demands, which probably meant something fishy.

And this fishy business was anyone’s guess.

Except that later on, a man who had been this woman’s childhood sweetheart had started to have trouble at home. His wife had discovered their affair and died of grief.

Many years ago, someone had suspected that the adulterous pair had chosen to lie low and not announce their relationship in the midst of all those problems.

But now that the rumors were dying off, they were going to announce their wedding.

However, one wondered if this woman felt bad for what she had done to the man’s wife.

Although this report had not mentioned any names throughout, anyone who had an inkling of Xia Yehua’s situation would be able to figure out with minimal guesswork that they were writing about her.

Qiao Lian narrowed her eyes and lifted her head after reading this. She looked at Xia Yehua, who was now frowning and so angry that she could hardly speak.

Immediately, she comforted the woman, “Mom, don’t be anxious.”
