Chapter 372: Sheng Hanyu Hesitates and Does Not Want to Marry

~9 min read 1,629 words

He felt it was very necessary to have a good talk with Shi Youxuan, a private talk.

He let his daughter stay by herself for a moment, then gave Shi Youxuan a look: "Come out with me, I have something to tell you."

Shi Youxuan felt it was unnecessary: "Don't say it, you go back and get the household register, or we don't even need to get the certificate, I'll book the hotel..." He pressed her hand and pulled her straight out.

In the hallway.

Sheng Hanyu stared at Shi Youxuan: "Xuanxuan, tell me the truth, what is wrong with you these past few days? Is there something going on with you?"

She said irritably: "What could be going on with me? It's all because of the child."

Shi Youxuan thought to herself, the child is so seriously ill, and you still have the heart to hold some grand wedding?

How could he be so oblivious?

But Sheng Hanyu misunderstood.

He mistakenly thought that Shi Youxuan was sacrificing herself for the child and actually didn't want to marry him at all... Although his analysis wasn't wrong, it was still a case of a miss being as good as a mile.

Sheng Hanyu was silent.

He was considering, struggling.

But Shi Youxuan kept urging him: "Don't dawdle, hurry up and book the hotel and invite the guests. We can skip the bridesmaids and groomsmen, but you must find an exceptionally outstanding boy to be the other flower girl..."

Sheng Hanyu finally spoke: "No, I don't agree."

"What do you not agree to?" Shi Youxuan didn't react for a moment.

He said word by word: "I don't agree to marry you, and getting married tomorrow is even more out of the question."

Shi Youxuan:...

She didn't expect that Sheng Hanyu would actually disagree!

Shi Youxuan immediately flared up, pointing at Sheng Hanyu and warning him: "I'm telling you clearly, this wedding must happen. You have to agree whether you want to or not. If you dare to disagree at a time like this, I will kill you."

She returned, fuming.

Shi Ran asked: "Mom, what's wrong? Are you angry?"

She didn't want to affect the child, so she forced a smile onto her face: "It's nothing, I'm not angry."

"Ranran, don't worry, Mom will definitely make you a flower girl tomorrow."

Sheng Hanyu wouldn't call to book a hotel, so Shi Youxuan called herself.

She first dialed Jian Yixin's number: "Yixin, do me a favor."

"Sure, what favor?"

Shi Youxuan: "Help me book a hotel, Sheng Hanyu and I are holding a wedding tomorrow. Also, what is the number for the place where you ordered your wedding Invitation? Never mind, don't order them."

"You help me invite the guests. There are no thresholds for the guest list, as long as they want to come, they can come. Anyway, the more people, the better..."

Jian Yixin was shocked at first!

Once she reacted, she hurriedly interrupted her: "Wait a second, you wait a moment!"

Shi Youxuan asked: "What's wrong?"

"What's wrong? I should be the one asking you what's wrong. Shi Youxuan, tell me, what on earth happened? You two have been very strange these past few days... Never mind, are you at home? I'll come find you."

Shi Youxuan: "I'm not at home, I'm at the hospital."

Jian Yixin:...

"Why are you at the hospital? Who is sick, and is it serious?"

Jian Yixin, an outsider, knew to ask if it was "serious or not," yet Sheng Hanyu, as the child's father, disregarded the child's health and only thought about a grand wedding.

Shi Youxuan grew to hate Sheng Hanyu in her heart.

With Shi Ran present, she couldn't say too much.

She only said to Jian Yixin: "Don't ask, I'm in a rush. We must get married tomorrow, you have to help me."

"I'll help, I'll definitely help!"

Hanging up the phone, Jian Yixin began to bustle about in a flurry. Although Shi Youxuan didn't give her a specific answer, she could tell from her tone that someone in their family of three must have fallen seriously ill!

A wedding to ward off bad luck!

Jian Yixin was extremely efficient; she booked the hotel very quickly, and the Invitation were being printed on an urgent basis. She even sent employees from her company to guard the printing company so that as soon as a batch was ready, they would write the names and send them out immediately.

In less than half a day.

The leading figures of Jiangzhou's high society had basically all received the wedding Invitation for Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan.

People were immediately blown away.

At the wedding a few days ago, Shi Youxuan was still denying that anything was going on, and in the blink of an eye, the Invitation were in their hands.

Jian Yining also received the news.

It was his sister who called him personally, telling him to return to the country immediately to attend the wedding of Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan!

"What did you say?"

"Whose wedding?"

Jian Yining didn't believe it at all. Amidst his shock, he suddenly laughed again: "Sis, stop messing around, you can't make jokes like this, I'll take it seriously."

Jian Yixin was very serious: "It's real. Come back quickly, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm busy organizing for them." After saying that, she hung up the phone.

Jian Yining had only been back in the United States for a few days, but he booked the next flight back to the country, preparing to return to attend the wedding!

Although everyone knew that these two would get back together, this was just too fast—so fast that people didn't even have time to react.

In the afternoon.

Sheng Hanyu's phone was almost blown up by people calling him.

Yun Zhehao, Sheng Zerong, and Wang Yong took turns calling him, asking why the wedding was so rushed?

What on earth had happened?

Sheng Hanyu said irritably, "You're crazy."

Everyone asked him, but in truth, he was also confused and wanted to know an accurate answer himself!

There must be some hidden reason for Shi Youxuan's sudden change in attitude, but when asked, she wouldn't say.

It wasn't that she wouldn't say, but she claimed it was for the children; why would they hold a wedding because of the children when the children were perfectly fine?

Sheng Hanyu felt this excuse was terrible.

He was not at all willing to have this wedding.

He wanted to marry Shi Youxuan, he dreamed of it, but there was a prerequisite: it had to be because of love, and she had to be willing.

Sheng Hanyu even had thoughts of "running away from the wedding."

However, this thought only flashed through his mind before he gave it up.

He couldn't run; if he ran away this time, how would Shi Youxuan and their daughter clean up the mess at the wedding venue?

They would become the laughingstock of all Jiangzhou, and this possibility could not be allowed.

Therefore, despite his reluctance, he could only cooperate.

It was easy for others, as they were all in Jiangzhou and could just drive to the wedding.

But Wang Yong was in L Country, and even if he booked the earliest flight, he wouldn't make it in time, so he discussed it with Sheng Hanyu: "Brother, why don't you and sister-in-law get married a day later? The day after tomorrow is an auspicious day, tomorrow is not suitable for weddings."

Sheng Hanyu said, "Don't ask me, I don't have the final say, go ask your sister-in-law."

Wang Yong:...

"Brother, this won't do; you're already afraid of your wife before you're even married, you'll be bullied to death by sister-in-law in the future."

Sheng Hanyu:...

He thought to himself, would it kill you not to tell the truth?

But he didn't answer directly, instead offering a well-intentioned reminder: "If you don't make the call now, I reckon it will be useless to call later, because the Invitations are being sent out one after another..." Once many were sent out, the wedding date certainly couldn't be changed at will just for one person.

When Shi Youxuan received Wang Yong's call, she could understand his feelings!

But the wedding date could not be changed.

Jian Yixin was very efficient; by now, basically all the Invitations had been sent out. Shi Youxuan wanted a grand event, and at least a thousand Invitations had been sent out, so it really couldn't be changed.

So she said to Wang Yong, "How about this, A Yong, if you can't make it to the wedding, I'll treat you to a separate meal later."

After hanging up on Wang Yong, Jian Yining's call came in.

Jian Yining was, of course, not as easy to dismiss as Wang Yong, and he started by questioning her: "Shi Youxuan, are you playing with me? If you were going to get married, you should have said so earlier; I just got back and you're getting married?"

"You are an absentee manager, just holding the title of Chairman and not managing anything. Do you know how many things there are to do at the company? I'm busy and overwhelmed every day, and you don't help, but you keep adding to my troubles..."

Before Jian Yining finished his grumbling, he felt something was wrong!

She seemed to be crying?

The sound of sobbing came from the other side of the phone, the voice very soft, as if she were trying hard to restrain herself.

"Xuanxuan, what's wrong with you? Did you encounter a difficult problem?" Others could guess immediately that there was a hidden reason, but Jian Yining was slow to realize it until she cried.
