Seeing the two of them looking back, the group of four also halted, each with a different expression.
After a while, Zhuang Shuqing spoke, "Miss Tan, what a coincidence, are you here for dinner?"
As these words ca out, everyone’s eyes focused on her, no one noticed Jiang Fu’s eyes widened in shock when she saw her.
Tan Biyang smiled warmly, "Hello, Miss Zhuang, Major Lu, are you also here for dinner?"
"No." Zhuang Shuqing shook her head, "We won’t disturb you, by the way, congratulations on your recent marriage."
After speaking, she left arm in arm with Lu Jinyang.
Throughout the whole exchange, Si Nanchen didn’t say a word, nor did his eyes linger on her, as if he didn’t recognize Zhuang Shuqing.
Tan Biyang glanced at him indifferently and said nothing.
Behind them, Jiang Fu walked absentmindedly. When she reached the revolving door, she stumbled, and Si Nuomin scolded her, snapping her back to reality.
She instinctively looked towards Si Nanchen and seeing him without any peculiar reaction, she felt slightly at ease.
During the al, Tan Biyang acted perfectly, leaving no room for criticism. Indeed, Si Nuomin and Jiang Fu had nothing negative to say about her throughout the dinner.
Later, on the way back to Jinxiu Garden to escort the elders, Si Nuomin said to Si Nanchen: "There’s no problem with the guest list for the banquet, I’ve added so nas, these people you must invite."
Si Nanchen: "Okay, dad, think if there’s anything else to add, we will do as you wish."
Si Nuomin nodded satisfactorily, "You’ve grown up, you can make so decisions on your own now."
"Mhm."
"Nanchen, who were those two people we t at the hotel entrance today? Both so attractive, a feast for the eyes." Finally, unable to suppress her anxiety, Jiang Fu voiced the question she most wanted to ask.
Si Nanchen casually said, "The man is the Imperial Major from the Lu Family; the woman should be his wife, I guess."
"What! The Imperial Major is him?"
Hearing the shock in Jiang Fu’s voice, Si Nanchen’s expression remained unchanged, "Yes, that’s him."
"Is that... is that woman really his wife?"
"That I don’t know. I suppose I could check his status when I am able to, then perhaps find out the woman’s identity."
Jiang Fu took a deep breath and muttered to herself: "That’s good, that’s good."
-
On the eve of Si Nanchen and Tan Biyang’s wedding, Lu Jinyang was called back by the army.
He has been really busy lately, running to the military district during the day and rushing back at night. Zhuang Shuqing felt sorry for him, telling him to rest in the district, but he refused, saying he couldn’t sleep well without his wife at the military district.
Tonight, Zhuang Shuqing returned to Jinxiu Garden alone. Walking on the cobblestone road, she realized how much she missed Lu Jinyang after not seeing him for just a day.
"Miss Zhuang~"
Zhuang Shuqing looked up upon hearing the voice, only to see a person standing at the end of the cobblestone road.
Seeing her stop, the person slowly walked towards her.
Only a few steps later, she was in front of Zhuang Shuqing.
"Miss Zhuang, we et again."
Observing the dignified lady in front of her, Zhuang Shuqing’s eyes turned slightly cold, she nodded distantly, "Hello, Mrs. Si."
"It seems you still rember , which ans you also rember what happened three years ago...."
The mont she ntioned the incident from three years ago, Zhuang Shuqing imdiately interrupted her, "Sorry, Mrs. Si, I’m in a hurry to get ho and cook for my husband, maybe we can talk another ti if there’s nothing urgent."
