On the sofa, she looked extremely haggard.
Even though she had dressed up meticulously, the thick foundation still couldnât hide her already dead face.
On the other side, the Cheng family was happily welcoming the guests who came to attend the engagement party tonight. Old Cheng was also sitting in his wheelchair, grinning from ear to ear.
Although it was her daughterâs engagement party, Shen Lanzhi didnât look happy at all.
âMrs. Shi, Whatâs Wrong?âSeeing that she was still sulking, Mrs. Cheng couldnât help but walk over and ask with concern.
Shen Lanzhi looked up and smiled when she saw Mrs. Cheng, but she was a little forced. âNothing, I probably got up too early.â
âReally? Then, do you want to sit over there for a while?â
,m âNo, Iâll go up and check on nuannuan.â
Shen Lanzhi turned around and went to the lounge on the second floor.
When she arrived at the lounge, Zuo Weiyi and Shi Yuting were accompanying her.
Shi Nuannuan, who had been silent the whole time, could not help but raise her head when she heard the sound of the door opening. She saw her mother walk in.
âWhereâs Xiang Yi? Did he come?â
One sentence made Shen Lanzhiâs heart ache.
She walked over and touched the hair on her forehead. âMom didnât see him.â
Zuo Weiyi could not help but hold her hand. âDonât worry. Youâll definitely see Xiang Yi when you go out later.â
Hearing this, Shi Nuannuanâs face returned to its dead silence.
Suddenly, she felt a wave of discomfort in her chest. She could not help but frown and raise her hand to cover her chest.
Sensing that something was wrong with her, Zuo Weiyi could not help but ask, âWhatâs wrong with you?â
Shi Nuannuan did not speak. She only calmed down the suffocating feeling in her chest.
Seven oâclock.
The engagement party started on time.
In the hotel elevator, Xiang Yi held the invitation card and quietly stared at the familiar name on it.
In the wedding banquet hall, under the applause of everyone, a couple slowly walked down the stairs.
Even though they were holding Cheng Huanâs hand, Shi Nuannuanâs face did not have the slightest hint of a smile.
âCheng Huan, from now on, you must treat Nuannuan well.âThe two of them came in front of Cheng Huan. Looking at the couple in front of him, Cheng Huan smiled and reminded his grandson. Then, he put their hands together, it implied that they would be together until they were old.
However, the moment Cheng Huan put his hand on Nuannuanâs hand, she suddenly took it away. She didnât have any expression on her face, nor did she look at the grandfather and grandson in front of her.
Her action couldnât help but make Cheng Huan and Cheng Huan stunned.
He looked up and saw that there wasnât a trace of a smile on her face. Cheng Huan was a little puzzled.
These days, he heard that she was sick, so he had not seen her for more than a week. He did not expect that she had lost a lot of weight.
Looking at her indifferent expression, old Cheng could not help but think, did this kid, Cheng Huan, make her angry? Was that why she was so unhappy?
Just as he was lost in thought, Shi Nuannuan turned her head and looked at Shi Le, who was standing at the side.
âWhereâs Xiang Yi?â
When she said this, the Cheng family members couldnât help but be stunned.
Xiang Yi? Whoâs Xiang Yi?
The Cheng couple glanced at each other and didnât understand who Xiang Yi was.
Moreover, at such an important moment, why did she mention another person?
When he met his granddaughterâs gaze, even though Shi Leâs heart was slightly depressed and didnât want to mention Xiang Yi at this moment, but he still looked towards the direction of the main entrance of the hall.
