Chapter 490: The Honest Man's Way of Expressing Love

More and more people gathered, discussing it heatedly.

"This old man is so pitiful; he must have been dumped, otherwise he wouldn't be crying so sadly."

"Exactly, look at how pitifully he's crying. At his age, why get a divorce? Just make do and get by..."

No amount of persuasion worked just a moment ago, but this sentence did the trick.

Sheng Jiang stood up with a "whoosh," held up the bright red booklet, and said to the person who spoke: "Look closely, this is a marriage certificate, not a divorce certificate. I wasn't divorced; today I married the girl I wanted to marry over thirty years ago."

"Although she is no longer young, she will always be the best girl in my heart. I finally married her, I am so happy, boo-hoo-hoo..."

Wang Yinghao burst into tears.

Enthusiastic applause erupted from the surrounding crowd; so that was what it was about.

The two of them received blessings from strangers.

Everyone not only offered blessings, but some even wanted to take photos with them to soak up some of the joy.

A love that has been cherished for over thirty years is truly enviable and aspirational.

Sheng Jiang didn't lose face this time; he became famous.

This scene at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau in the afternoon was uploaded to the internet by someone.

The phones of Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan did not stop ringing all afternoon.

They were all calling to inquire.

At first, it was very close friends, such as the Jian Family siblings and the couple Yun Zhehao, who all called one after another to offer their blessings.

Jian Yixin was gushing excitedly on the phone: "That's great, Uncle and Aunt are finally together. I just said that good people should be rewarded, and bad people should get their retribution... Xuanxuan, have you told that old woman about this? If you haven't, I'll help you tell her."

"Old woman" refers to Wang Yingzhi.

To describe Jian Yixin's hatred for Wang Yingzhi as "hating her to the bone" is not an exaggeration at all.

Back then, in order to curry favor with Sheng Yukai, Wang Yingzhi acted as an accomplice, used Sheng Hanyu's name to trick her into a room, and she was almost bullied.

For so many years, it was only out of respect for Sheng Hanyu that she never took action against Wang Yingzhi.

Later on, Wang Yingzhi met with her own retribution and landed herself in Prison, and that was when Jian Yixin learned she was not Sheng Hanyu's biological mother!

She wanted to take revenge for the past, but since that woman had already entered Prison, she let it go.

Although Wang Yingzhi met with her own retribution, the hatred remained!

Seeing this video on the internet today, besides being moved, the first thing Jian Yixin thought of was to let Wang Yingzhi see this video; she wanted to see the look of distress on her face with her own eyes.

Shi Youxuan had no objections: "Sure, go ahead, but I won't accompany you; it's too far."

The Prison where Wang Yingzhi is located is a four or five-hour drive one way, and she is quite far along in her pregnancy now.

A ten-hour round trip just to annoy her, Shi Youxuan felt it wasn't worth it.

Jian Yixin felt it was worth it, so she went.

Jian Yining's call was much more practical, asking when the wedding would be held.

It must be held in a lively manner.

Or perhaps just have a group wedding, Sheng Jiang, Wang Yinghao.

Him and Jin Wan'er.

Sheng Hanyu, Shi Youxuan.

Three pairs getting married together, more people makes it lively!

Why join in the fun like that?

Except for the person who proposed it, no one agreed, so that was that.

Lady Jian was the first who could not agree; her precious son is taking a wife, of course, it must be a wedding of the century, how could it be sloppy?

A group wedding?

Don't even think about it.

It wasn't just her; others didn't agree either.

Wang Yinghao's intention was not to hold a wedding at all, just get the certificate, and at most have a meal together as a family or take a family portrait.

However, Sheng Jiang did not agree; he said Wang Yinghao owed him a wedding!

She stood him up over thirty years ago, so this time she has to make it up to him.

The new home is at the Sheng Hanyu Villa; it is quiet there, and both of them like the environment there.

Sheng Hanyu originally wanted to renovate it, redecorate the interior, and replace all the appliances and furniture.

But Wang Yinghao did not agree; she said it was fine as it was and didn't want to go through the trouble. Moreover, Shi Youxuan is heavily pregnant now, and there are a thousand things to attend to, so they shouldn't distract their energy on them.

Having time to take better care of the child and his wife is what Sheng Hanyu should be doing most!

This time Sheng Jiang did not object; he stood on his wife's side and also believed there was no need for renovation.

But it wasn't because he was afraid of trouble, but because he was too impatient to wait to hold the wedding and make up for his regrets of many years.

Although the wedding was small, it was very lively.

They didn't invite many people, setting up only three tables in total.

Just these few friends and relatives from the family.

No one from Wang Yinghao's maiden family came; they weren't notified.

Back when Wang Yingzhi was in power, she often colluded with relatives in the family to suppress Wang Yinghao, so the family ties had faded to the point of non-existence, and this time Wang Yinghao didn't intend to notify them either.

Jian Yining and Jin Wan'er were originally prepared to return to the United States, but because they had to attend the wedding, they stayed for two extra days.

Lady Jian also came.

She enthusiastically presented gifts and offered blessings.

She also helped bustle about, very warm-hearted.

As long as it didn't involve her own children, Lady Jian performed quite well in other respects.

The old master and mistress of the Jin Family traveled thousands of miles from the United States to attend the wedding.

They had three purposes for coming.

To attend the wedding of Sheng Jiang and Wang Yinghao.

To discuss the wedding date of Jian Yining and Jin Wan'er with the in-laws.

And the final, most important purpose—to conduct a paternity test with Shi Youxuan!

In fact, based on the appearance of Jin Wan'er and Shi Youxuan, that was the best proof; there was no need at all to do any so-called testing.

But the old master of the Jin Family had been rigorous in everything he did his whole life, accustomed to being meticulous.

At the wedding, the old master and mistress of the Jin Family sat at the head table; after all, they were elders and had come from afar.

The congratulatory gift presented by the old master was a piece of calligraphy he had written himself, which he had framed and stamped with his seal before bringing it.

Jin Lao's calligraphy and paintings were highly sought after in the international market, and his characters were hard to come by.

Sheng Jiang liked this gift so much that he immediately took down the painting originally hanging in the most prominent spot in the living room and replaced it with Jin Lao's calligraphy.

The wedding was simple yet lively; after it ended, everyone said their goodbyes and drove home.

Lady Jian had originally wanted the old master and mistress of the in-laws to stay at her home, but this time she was declined.

The old mistress hoped to have a talk with Shi Youxuan to get the most important matter done.

How clever was Shi Youxuan?

Before the old mistress could explain her intentions, she took the initiative to suggest going for a paternity test to prove her relationship with the Jin Family.

But she had one request: if the results proved she was indeed a child of the Jin Family, she could not change her surname.

She still had to be surnamed Shi, and Shi Yucheng would always be her father.

The result of the test could only mean having more relatives; it could not cause Shi Yucheng to lose a daughter.

The Jin Family members agreed readily, and then the group headed in a grand procession to the testing center!

Just as they entered, a Security Guard approached them with a face full of vigilance.

With a wary expression, he said full of sympathy: "Old master, old mistress, you are at an advanced age and cannot handle shocks; did you bring your blood pressure medication?"

"We have fast-acting heart pills here; let us know as soon as you need them, but you had best wait outside, you must be mentally prepared..."

The old mistress was a bit bewildered and couldn't make heads or tails of it.

But she still thanked the Security Guard: "Thank you, young man, our health is quite good, and we are mentally prepared; nothing will happen."

Although she said this, the Security Guard still dared not lower his guard.

He followed behind them the whole time, saying things like "restrain yourself," "control your emotions," and "don't get excited."
