Chapter 44: Big Marriage (2) Satire of Anzhao
After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband
The An family villa.
The entire place was festive for the wedding.
Many people came to the family home to deliver their blessings.
An Nuan and Xia Qiqi were both already fully dressed up.
Xia Qiqi kept gushing over how good-looking An Nuan was, and suddenly remarked, âBy the way, did you pick this wedding dress or did Gu Yan Sheng? The taste really isnât great!â
An Nuan didn't reply.
âIt was probably Gu Yan Sheng right?!â Xia Qiqi had already guessed, âAfter all your taste isnât this bad, plus youâve always been too accommodating of Gu Yan Sheng's feelings, in the end whatever he says goes.â
In my past life, I did always consider everything for his sake. This time, of course not.
âIâm a little confused now.â Xia Qiqi looked at An Nuan.
Did An Nuan actually like Gu Yan Sheng or not?
If she didn't like him, why did she still marry him?
If she did like him, why was she still tangled up with Ye Jinghuai? n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Just what was the relationship between An Nuan, and those two men?
Xia Qiqi just stared blankly at An Nuan, really unable to figure it out.
An Nuan also did not provide Xia Qiqi with any explanation.
Anyway, it would become clear soon.
At this time.
There was a knock on the door.
An Zhao was wearing a white dress, clearly a white formal dress that had been specially chosen, it even looked a little overly extravagant. If judging by just the formalwear, it seemed she was trying to outdo An Nuan a little. After all An Nuanâs wedding dress was very conservative, but An Zhao's formal dress was studded with sparkling diamonds, under the light it was dazzling.
As soon as Xia Qiqi saw An Zhao her expression was not good.
This woman's ambition was also too obvious, at An Nuan's wedding she had come to intentionally compete.
âCousin, you look so beautiful today?â An Xiao followed behind An Zhao into the room, her face full of sincerity.
An Nuan smiled lightly, âThank you.â
âThe wedding dress is really beautiful.â An Zhao deliberately complimented.
An Nuan looked at An Zhao, âYour formal dress also looks very good.â
âIs it?â An Zhao's smile became even more obvious, she quickly said, âA friend specially helped me pick it out, said it was the chief designer of the Se Family's newly designed dress this year, it hasn't even hit the market yet, my friend pulled some connections to get it. I waited half a month for it, specially for attending your wedding today.â
âBoyfriend?â Xia Qiqi cut in.
âNo.â An Zhaoâs face was flushed with shyness.
âGood thing itâs not a boyfriend. If it was a boyfriend, this kind of man really wouldnât do.â Xia Qiqi said kindly.
âWhy?â An Zhaoâs expression changed instantly.
âToday is Nuan Nuanâs wedding, you dressing so grandly, isnât that stealing the limelight?â Xia Qiqi did not give An Zhao any face, âIf it was just an ordinary friend it would be fine, after all they aren't that important. If it really was your boyfriend, you better think carefully, is a man who lacks understanding and education like this worth you liking.â
Listening to Xia Qiqi's words, An Zhaoâs face turned green.
On the surface Xia Qiqi was criticizing the âfriendâ she spoke of, but actually it was to satirize her for lacking understanding and education.
An Zhao glanced over at An Nuan.
According to An Nuanâs personality, An Nuan would definitely smooth things over for her. Especially since it was An Nuan's wedding, An Nuan would also have to consider the big picture, and wouldn't really stir up any conflicts.
Of course An Nuan also received An Zhao's signal.
The corner of her mouth pulled into a smile, âCousin, I think what Qiqi said makes sense.â
An Zhaoâs expression instantly turned extremely ugly.
Nowadays Xia Qiqi was already used to An Nuanâs transformation, no longer finding it strange.
âItâs not that what you wear today will affect me, after all since we were young, what you wore and used were always better than me, yet Iâve never heard anyone say you look better than me.â An Nuan's gentle words, satirized An Zhao to no end.
The fact was indeed so, ever since they were young, the things An Nuan used were very ordinary. Because of Li YaJu, their family life was truly not luxurious. But as for An Zhao, it was as if afraid others didnât know her family was rich, everything she wore was top international brands. Even so, whenever anyone mentioned An Nuan and An Zhao, everyone would still say An Nuan was Qing Cityâs number one beauty.
An Nuan looked as if she could not discern An Zhaoâs mood, and continued saying, âThe formal dress youâre wearing, I donât see it as the Se Familyâs new design, instead it looks more like an imitation of the Se Familyâs designs, a currently very popular second-tier brand among white-collars, Miya Houseâs product.â
âHow could a low-end brand like Miya possibly produce such exquisite work?â An Zhao refuted.
âBecause the Se Familyâs chief designer did not release any new designs this season.â An Nuan said directly.
âHow do you know?!â
An Nuan gave a cold laugh, âI just heard, believe it or not, up to you.â
Naturally An Zhao did not believe her words.
She would never believe Gu Yan Sheng bought her a second-rate low-end brand item.
He had clearly told her, that today he would make her look more beautiful than An Nuan.
Even if he could not marry her, he would still make her the center of attention at the wedding banquet, he absolutely wouldnât wrong her.
So last night Gu Yan Sheng had specially arranged for someone to deliver the formal dress to her. When she opened it and saw how beautiful it was, she was naturally overjoyed.
Yet she didnât expect to be so mocked and satirized by An Nuan and Xia Qiqi.
Fortunately at this time other relatives and friends also entered the room to congratulate An Nuan, easing the atmosphere. Only then did An Zhao swallow her anger and leave.
An Xiao naturally followed behind An Zhao properly.
Once out of earshot of the crowd, An Zhao could no longer maintain her expression, âThat wretched An Nuan, sour grapes! Her own wedding dress is hideously ugly, yet still dares to say mine is fake, simply disgusting.â
âSheâs just jealous and envious because you look better than her.â An Xiao quickly flattered, âBrother Yan Sheng clearly loves you more, it can be seen from the formal dress he picked for you. The one he got for An Nuan was just perfunctory!â
âOf course.â An Zhao was extremely smug. Just thinking about how her formal dress formed a stark contrast with An Nuanâs wedding dress, her entire being felt sweetness to the core.
That night, the two of them had also been extremely intimate.
Gu Yan Sheng said, he had long noticed she liked him, but because of his relationship with An Nuan, he couldn't express it.
He said, his marriage with An Nuan was just a political union, he didn't actually like An Nuan at all. A rigid and boring woman like An Nuan, no man would like.
After he had made use of An Nuan and accomplished his great cause, he would marry her instead.
Just thinking about Gu Yan Sheng's gentle as water attitude towards her, An Zhao couldn't help but blush and feel bashful.
Beside her, An Xiao watched as An Zhao had a completely infatuated expression.
Gu Yan Sheng just casually said a few honeyed words and she completely believed them, truly laughable.
Even taking a step back, even if Gu Yan Sheng didn't love An Nuan, it would be impossible for him to love a fool like An Zhao!
She would just wait for An Zhao to doom herself first. Once An Zhao died, she would become An YanKun's only daughter, then she would have the capital to compete with An Nuan.
The position of eldest miss of the An family could only be hers, An Xiao's!
An Xiao sinisterly schemed.
In the hall, someone suddenly shouted loudly, âThe groom has arrived!â
Within the bedroom, An Nuan's eyes turned cold.
Ever since she was reborn, she had been waiting for this day!
Now, it had finally come.
At this moment hearing the sounds from outside, Xia Qiqi hurriedly moved to close the door.
âQiqi.â An Nuan called out to stop her.
âHmm?â Xia Qiqi was clearly somewhat excited.
She just liked liveliness after all.
âNo need to close the door.â An Nuan said directly.
With Gu Yan Sheng, there was no need to expend any effort.
Just going through the motions was enough!
