After accidentally sending a late-night reading to her ex-boyfriend
Chapter 118 Having Face Yet Losing Face
Upon arriving at Xiao Heng's wedding, the two were clearly late and were seated as arranged.
Su Yuyan wore the best haute couture wedding dress of the season, radiating an indescribable brilliance.
Everyone turned to look, knowing that the Su family had recently encountered some problems, but they believed that after this wedding, no one would think that the Su family had any issues.
After all, such a grand and lively event proves everything.
"Isn't the Xiao family dissatisfied with Su Yuyan? They must have spent quite a bit on this."
Despite the rushed wedding preparations, Su Yuyan acted as if it weren't so rushed, striving for perfection in every aspect.
In addition, all of Su Yuyan's clothes were obtained at a high price.
At this moment, Su Yuyan was as glamorous and wealthy as could be.
Jiang Yue felt that even top-tier wealthy families should think twice before indulging in such excessive wealth.
Money is not something you can just throw away.
"This is all Xiao Heng's money. Xiao Heng has been in charge of the Xiao family for so many years, he must have some money on him. Although this wedding is extravagant, it is not a problem for Xiao Heng. If he thinks that everything in the Xiao family will still be his after he goes back, he should not think it is too extravagant."
Mo Chenyuan explained softly.
"But if we can't stay at the Xiao family company, then things might be different."
Mo Chenyuan's tone was very calm.
He seemed not to care about it at all.
"Ah Yue, you're right. The wedding cost a lot. Perhaps this is Xiao Heng's last act of extravagance. Even if the Xiao family can't accept Xiao Heng... even if they do, Xiao Heng will still have to bear all of this himself."
Mo Chenyuan's tone was calm, yet his expression remained completely undisturbed.
He saw clearly that Xiao Heng would not have a future.
"Wouldn't he regret it now? Looking at it this way, all the glory is meaningless."
Xiao Heng never imagined that one day the Xiao family would no longer be under his control. His younger brother had been spoiled rotten, and only one person in the family was left who could shoulder the burden. But things are never that simple.
Mo Chenyuan looked at the spirited Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng seemed oblivious, still greeting outsiders with a smile.
Jiang Yue saw all of this and wondered whether it was arrogance or pathetic to have a wedding for a woman.
Soon, the newcomers entered.
In fact, everyone's thoughts were similar to his own, and the scene was roughly divided into two factions.
The first group felt that they were a perfect match, and that the union of Su Yuyan and Xiao Heng was the beginning of a better future for both families.
The second group also felt that they were just putting on a brave face.
However, everyone got along well at the wedding.
Mr. and Mrs. Xiao cooperated with Xiao Heng to complete the wedding.
Even after the tea ceremony, Mrs. Xiao only gave Su Yuyan a red envelope, and Su Yuyan's expression immediately turned ugly.
Xiao Heng was also embarrassed for a moment.
The awkwardness was obvious.
Jiang Yue looked at Mo Chenyuan with some curiosity.
"What happened?"
"Only I can answer this for you. Jiang Yueyue, if you call me 'good brother' three times, I'll tell you, okay?"
Jiang Yue rolled her eyes at Xiao Jing.
"If you wanted to say it, you would have said it already. If you didn't want to say it, I'll let you keep it to yourself!"
Jiang Yue seemed completely unconcerned.
Xiao Jing spoke up: "My brother and I both know that my mother has a jade bracelet. We heard it when we were little that it was meant to be given to the lady of the house. My brother probably thought it would end up in Su Yuyan's hands, but I didn't expect my mother to have no intention of giving it to her at all. If she were to give money, it would only be for appearances. There was only ten thousand in that red envelope."
This is quite common for ordinary families.
This is quite awkward for a wealthy family. I imagine Su Yuyan's expression will be even more unpleasant when she opens the red envelope tonight.
"mom!"
Xiao Heng whispered a reminder.
Su Yuyan also knew about the jade bracelet.
Su Yuyan's eyes reddened, but with so many people present, she couldn't say anything and could only bow her head and thank them.
After that, the arrogance that Su Yuyan had shown at the wedding was no longer visible on her face.
She looked unwell, but Jiang Yue was fine.
Next comes the toasting ceremony.
Because Mo Chenyuan was from one of the four great families, Su Yuyan and Xiao Heng were the first to arrive at this table.
"Shen Yuan, I didn't expect you to be willing to come to my wedding."
Xiao Heng raised his wine glass and offered a toast.
Even though they didn't get along, Jiang Yue still raised her glass.
He was pinned down by Mo Chenyuan.
"Jiang Yue would never dare drink Su Yuyan's wine!"
Su Yuyan was embarrassed.
Both servings of wine were problematic. Mo Chenyuan's implication couldn't be clearer.
Even if Su Yuyan is shameless, she won't be able to cause a scene today.
"It's alright if Miss Jiang can't drink alcohol. After all, the fact that you came proves that we've put aside our differences."
"Call her Mrs. Mo."
Mo Chenyuan added another jab, saying that the premise for not ruining the wedding was that Su Yuyan behaved herself today and didn't gossip.
As long as Su Yuyan dares to be sarcastic, Mo Chenyuan will absolutely not be polite.
"Yes, Mrs. Xiao, we're married."
At this moment, Jiang Yue didn't give Xiao Heng and the others any face either.
"It's all because I wasn't paying attention, Mrs. Mo."
After all, the Xiao family members were present today, and even if Su Yuyan had a lot of courage, she wouldn't dare to act recklessly at this time.
The toasting went smoothly.
The food at the banquet wasn't very good, and Jiang Yue wasn't even full yet. Mo Chenyuan immediately pulled Jiang Yue up and said, "I know a good restaurant. Let's go somewhere else to eat."
"The banquet isn't over yet!"
Jiang Yue reminded Mo Chenyuan.
"For this occasion, a token gesture is enough. Since the food here isn't very good, why force yourself to stay?"
After Mo Chenyuan finished speaking, he turned around and left with Jiang Yue.
……
The Xiao family after the wedding.
After a long day, her face was stiff from smiling. Because there were still media around, Su Yuyan had been forcing herself to maintain a facade. Finally, she relaxed, feeling utterly exhausted.
Su Yuyan had just changed out of her dress and was about to go downstairs to get a glass of water when she heard Xiao Heng talking to his parents downstairs.
"Mom and Dad, are you deliberately trying to embarrass Yu Yan today? I already told Yu Yan about the bracelet, but you deliberately kept it from her. Isn't that going too far? Su Yu Yan is my wife, the future mistress of the Xiao family. Won't this make Yu Yan think too much?"
Mrs. Xiao gave a forced smile.
"Su Yuyan is your wife, Xiao Heng, but I'm still the mistress of the Xiao family. Are you already planning to help her take her place? Is this your idea or Su Yuyan's? Su Yuyan has benefited the most from marrying into the family. Am I supposed to give her the title of mistress as well?"
"Mom, you know that's not what I meant. You also said that the bracelet is a wedding heirloom, so isn't that 10,000 yuan red envelope a bit excessive?"
Mr. Xiao slammed his hand on the table: "Xiao Heng, you know perfectly well who went too far."
