She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment Ⅱ Chapter 691

Chapter 691

Chapter 691: Discussing the Marriage (8)

Shen Zihao was stunned and rendered speechless.

His expression turned gloomy at once.

He cleared his throat and said, “My father doesn’t seem to understand what’s important and what’s not. Aunty Mei doesn’t even say anything about this, so why does he interfere? It’s not an issue, you can address her as Aunty Mei. Aunty Mei is young, it’s not right to call her Mom anyway.”

Dad Xia looked at him and said with a half-smile, “Aunty Mei was there when your father said this. She did appear as though she wishes you’d call her Mom. Zihao, you should go home and sort things out.”

Shen Zihao was silent for a moment and then nodded.

As Xia Nuannuan was about to get into the car after Dad Xia and Mom Xia, Shen Zihao suddenly said, “Nuannuan, why don’t you stay? We’re married and can live together.”

At this suggestion, Dad Xia’s head popped out of the window from inside the car. “Zihao, you’d better not. Your father already thinks that the both of you are immature. In our Chinese tradition, you can only live together after the wedding ceremony. I wouldn’t want your father thinking that Nuannuan doesn’t know her customs.”

Shen Zihao was not clueless. He realized from his words that his father had probably berated her. At once, his expression darkened.

After the Xia family left, Shen Zihao marched into the house in a huff.

He glared at Shen Xiu furiously. “Dad, this is too much! How could you do this?! This is your first meeting with them, you’re being so embarrassing!”

Shen Xiu snorted icily. “A family that could raise that vixen can’t be a very decent family. I’ve done a background check. This Xia Nuannuan was once a waitress at Glitter. How decent can she be? Once the child is born, I will have a DNA test done. I’m not going to bring up someone else’s child.”

Shen Zihao was stunned, speechless.

For the first time, he was seeing this acrimonious side of his father.

Shen Xiu had not been like this in the past.

This was also the first time he considered the possibility that, years ago when his mother left the Shen family home without a cent in her pocket and in such a hurry, she might have had her reasons.

For a moment, he looked distracted and lost in his thoughts.

He hung his head for a moment before he dashed upstairs to his bedroom, without another word.

He needed some silence.

The Shen family’s dinner invitation not only caused anxiety in the Xia family, even Xia Yehua was nervous about it.

She knew more than anyone else what sort of man Shen Xiu was.

It was only when Xia Nuannuan and her parents were back in the hotel that Xia Yehua heaved a sigh of relief.

Qiao Lian wanted to both laugh and cry when she saw that look on the woman’s face.

Unfortunately, very soon, she would find herself unable to laugh.

Around 10 p.m. that night, the villa district’s guard called them saying someone was looking for Qiao Lian.

She was puzzled. Who could be looking for her?

The guard was tripping over his own words and only said that she should go take a look.

Having no choice, she put on her jumper and walked outside.

“I’ll come with you.” Shen Liangchuan followed her.

“Why? You’re worried about me? Afraid that I might be sneaking out for a date with another man?” Qiao Lian joked as they walked out of the door.

Unfortunately, very soon, she would find herself unable to laugh.

Just outside the door, she saw that a small crowd had gathered.

Someone with a sharp eye spotted her, hurriedly walked up to her and grabbed her by the sleeve. “It’s her! The scammers’ daughter! Return my family’s money! Return my son to me!” the person cried.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Lian felt a part of her brain snap.
