Chapter 116: Qin Yun Shu and Cheng Han are to be married

Cheng Wan ate, one bite here and there.

After listening for a long while, she understood.

The purpose of eating today was to discuss the marriage alliance between the Chu Family and the Cheng Family.

Chu Li could not possibly enter into a marriage alliance, so this matter fell upon Qin Yun Shu.

It happened to be exactly what she wished for.

Cheng Wan thought, Chu Li was truly the model for all childhood sweethearts in this world.

He did not force what he could not obtain, and even helped his childhood sweetheart pursue her true love.

She suddenly understood everything.

From the moment Qin Yun Shu became Old Master Chu's god-granddaughter, Chu Li had been calculating this marriage alliance.

He would use any means necessary to ensure Qin Yun Shu caught her true love.

The bird's nest in her hand suddenly lost its flavor.

She set down her spoon.

She had no appetite.

Chu Li, who was in the middle of speaking, suddenly stopped, tilted his head slightly to look at her, and asked softly, "Not to your taste?"

Cheng Wan shook her head, "I'm full."

She was having a bit of morning sickness and didn't dare eat too much.

Chu Li reached out and moved the half-bowl of bird's nest in front of himself, and using the spoon Cheng Wan had used, finished the remaining half-bowl of bird's nest.

Cheng Wan didn't even have time to stop him.

"You..."

Chu Li asked her, "What else do you want to eat?"

Cheng Wan looked around the table and pointed at the soup not far away.

"I want that Sanxian Soup."

It looked light.

"Mm." Chu Li turned the table and ladled a bowl of soup for Cheng Wan.

The marriage discussion, which had been going well, was interrupted, and Qin Yun Shu's fingers were almost twisted to the point of breaking.

Cheng Wan was definitely doing it on purpose.

She was disgusting herself, and she was also disgusting Cheng Mingzhu.

But she could only endure it.

Her marriage to Cheng Han still relied on Chu Li.

She could endure it, but Cheng Mingzhu couldn't endure it at all.

She said resentfully, "Cheng Wan, we came here to discuss the marriage, not to watch you act out, can you be a little quieter?"

Cheng Wan's movement of drinking soup paused, and she looked across the table, her gaze landing on Qin Yun Shu's snow-white face.

She realized Qin Yun Shu's unhappiness a beat too late.

She was unhappy...

Cheng Wan was very happy.

She ignored Cheng Mingzhu and lowered her head to continue drinking her soup.

Only, every time they spoke for about two or three minutes, she would direct Chu Li to pick up food for her.

Chu Li followed her lead, stopping to pick up food for her, and even asked her how it tasted.

Cheng Wan would offer a comment or two.

After a few times like this, Qin Yun Shu couldn't take it anymore.

She silently set down her chopsticks, her eyes reddening, "Cheng Wan, did I offend you somewhere?"

She looked very aggrieved.

Cheng Wan calmly shook her head, "No."

Qin Yun Shu questioned, "Then why do you always have to interrupt our conversation? You know full well that my brother is talking about the marriage between me and Cheng Han,"

What an important matter this was.

As if suddenly realizing, Cheng Wan looked at Chu Li, "So Miss Qin is blaming me for disturbing her good deed."

She asked Chu Li, "Did I disturb you?"

"No." Chu Li understood Cheng Wan's intentions, but they were getting along harmoniously today, and he wanted to maintain that.

Moreover, he liked her obedience.

Cheng Wan smiled and raised an eyebrow at Qin Yun Shu, "Sorry, Miss Qin, A Li says I didn't disturb you."

"You're someone about to get married, it's better to have a steadier temperament. If you feel aggrieved and want to cry over such a small matter, then after you're married, are you going to go home and cry to your brother every day?"

Qin Yun Shu hated Cheng Wan to death in her heart, but on the surface, she still had to struggle to suppress herself so as not to reveal even a hint of resentment.

Her persona could not collapse.

She lowered her eyes and let out a sob.

"I didn't mean to blame you, I just thought we should settle things as soon as possible so everyone could eat in peace, otherwise the food will get cold."

Cheng Wan rested her chin on her hand, the corners of her mouth lifted, "So Miss Qin is hungry."

"You..."

Qin Yun Shu pinched her palm; Cheng Wan was deliberately making her lose face in front of the elders.

"If Miss Qin is hungry, then eat quickly, don't stare at me so longingly. There are so many dishes on the table, enough for Miss Qin to eat," Cheng Wan added.

Her depressed mood became wonderful.

Coming here today was truly the right choice.

Qin Yun Shu was about to cry.

Cheng Mingzhu could not watch any longer; she slammed the table and stood up, "Cheng Wan, are you ever going to finish?"

Cheng Wan raised her eyebrows faintly, looking very innocent, "What did I do now?"

"Are you a starving ghost reincarnated? You still aren't full?" Cheng Mingzhu spoke without thinking.

Chu Li placed the bowl in his hand heavily onto the table, the sound loud.

"Miss Cheng, are you cursing my child?"

Cheng Mingzhu realized what a stupid thing she had said and regretted it immensely, "I didn't mean that, A Li, you have to believe me."

Cheng Huade felt very helpless regarding his daughter's intelligence and said in a low voice, "Enough, Mingzhu, sit down."

Cheng Wan provoked the situation, Qin Yun Shu deliberately sobbed, and Cheng Mingzhu was used as a pawn without even knowing it.

Cheng Mingzhu sat down, full of anger.

To disgust Qin Yun Shu, Cheng Wan had eaten a bit too much, and her morning sickness came on fast and fierce.

She hurriedly stood up and went to the restroom.

After vomiting for a while, she felt much better.

After rinsing her mouth, she looked at her haggard self in the mirror and gave a helpless, bitter smile.

She did not know if it was because of her complicated feelings toward this child, but her morning sickness this time was much more severe than before.

Whatever she ate, she threw up.

She washed her face again.

When she looked up again, she saw Qin Yun Shu in the mirror.

The fatigue on Cheng Wan's face was gone.

She washed her hands unhurriedly before turning to look at Qin Yun Shu, "Is something the matter?"

Qin Yun Shu's expression was full of resentment, "Cheng Wan, you already have Brother's child in your belly; as long as you are willing, you can become Mrs. Chu again at any time. Can't you just let go of the past and stop going against me?"

"Cheng Han and I are going to have a marriage alliance."

She valued this marriage alliance; after all, as long as the two families reached an agreement, she and Cheng Han would inevitably marry.

She could not wait to become Cheng Han's wife.

Cheng Wan pulled a tissue to wipe her hands, finding it somewhat amusing, "What do you think?"

"Qin Yun Shu, taking things that belong to others comes with a price."

"Furthermore, you also caused Grandmother's death."

Cheng Wan threw away the tissue, a cold smile on her lips, "Believe it or not, with me here, things between you and Cheng Han will not succeed."

Qin Yun Shu bit her lip, her face looking ugly.

Cheng Wan was just saying it, but she had a feeling that Cheng Wan could do what she said.

Clearly, the marriage alliance was led by Chu Li, and Cheng Wan had absolutely no ability to change this matter.

But... that was Cheng Wan...

She had destroyed the Qin Family.

Qin Yun Shu dared not gamble.

But hiding a foul rage in her heart, she raised her palm and was about to strike.

Cheng Wan lifted her chin, not dodging or avoiding, a mocking smile on the corners of her mouth.

She bet that this slap would not land on her face.

Sure enough, she had bet correctly.

Qin Yun Shu's palm hung in mid-air, but in the end, she withdrew it.

She dared not hit her.

Cheng Wan was the woman in Chu Li's heart, and furthermore, she carried Chu Li's child.

She knew very well that if this slap landed, her marriage to Cheng Han would be ruined.

Cheng Wan walked to Qin Yun Shu's side and laughed in a low voice, "Qin Yun Shu, does Cheng Han really like you?"

She left directly.

Qin Yun Shu stood where she was, her face turning pale inch by inch.

Her mind was filled with Cheng Wan's words.

Did Cheng Han really like her?

Three years ago, she could be certain.

Three years later, she dared not even think about it.
