Chapter 23: She Doesn’t Belong to You

Chapter 23: Chapter 23: She Doesn’t Belong to You

Bian Yue waited for him for a full two hours since getting off the plane.

He knew, he should explain to Bian Yue.

But he only looked at her, speaking in a faint voice, "There was some delay on the way, Bian Yue, please forgive me."

Anger was rising in Bian Yue’s eyes, she coldly looked at him and silently got into the car.

As the car door slammed shut with a ’bang’, neither of them spoke all the way.

Li Sihe thought that he may never get to hear Bian Yue speak up.

— After waiting for two whole hours, the young girl was genuinely angry.

However, halfway through the journey, Bian Yue spoke.

In the dense rainy night, she looked at him with tears beginning to fall, "Li Sihe, don’t I even deserve to hear the truth from you?"

At that moment, his heart felt calm, even finding the young girl overly emotional, causing trouble for himself.

But thinking about it now, he was filled with regret.

Shi An’an watched as Li Sihe suddenly stood up.

"Ah Hen, what are you doing?" Shi An’an stood up in shock, seeing Li Sihe quickly walking past her out the door.

Shi An’an hurried after him, and just as Li Sihe was about to step out the door, she held him tight from behind: "It’s too late to go after Bian Yue now!"

Li Sihe stopped in his tracks, grabbed Shi An’an’s hand that was clinging around his waist, shook it off, and said coldly, "What do you mean?"

"On my way here, I heard that Bian Yue and Shen Jinci have already gone to register their marriage! It’s officially announced by the Shen Family that the wedding banquet will be in 7 days!"

After Shi An’an finished, she looked at Li Sihe with teary eyes, pleading lowly, "Ah Hen, what’s the point of persisting over Bian Yue now? She is destined not to be yours anymore!"

Li Sihe remained silent, his peach blossom eyes dark and seemingly emotionless.

Standing silently for a while under Shi An’an’s gaze, he coughed up blood without any expression.

The blood stained his refined and elegant face, shocking and vivid.

Shi An’an was scared pale instantly, she supported Li Sihe, crying out, "Ah Hen! What’s wrong with you! Where’s the doctor! The doctor!"

Meanwhile, after Bian Yue and Shen Jinci had their marriage registered, the two had a rather awkward meal.

Shen Jinci dropped Bian Yue off at the Shen Family Mansion but didn’t stay long, stating he had matters to attend to.

Bian Yue breathed a sigh of relief; she was not ready to interact with Shen Jinci as his wife yet.

She hoped that Shen Jinci would be busy with his matters recently.

After Shen Jinci left, Bian Yue was left with nothing to do, so she wandered around the Shen Family Mansion alone.

It must be said, the landscaping of the Shen Family Mansion was meticulously done, very classical and refined; among Xiangjiang’s mansions, it was a rare style.

Not to mention, the mansion itself held quite a value, much like an artwork.

It would even be sufficient if auctioned to a museum.

However, regardless of anything, it was too deserted. Shen Jinci wasn’t fond of lively places, so the Shen Family Mansion also remained desolate, with barely any subordinates in sight.

Having finally seen a few people, they all stepped aside at the sight of Bian Yue.

—— Apparently, Jinci always disliked them approaching.

When Bian Yue passed by the study, she remembered Jinci mentioning he was preparing invitations.

After all, it was her lifelong event, Bian Yue was somewhat curious, she was just about to push the door to see what the invitation looked like when Wen Jiao called.

Wen Jiao said, "Bian Yue, want to come hang out? There’s a gathering, everyone wants to see you."

The news of the Shen Family’s wedding had already spread, and now Bian Yue was the focus of the entire high society circle.

Wen Jiao didn’t elaborate, but Bian Yue could guess what this banquet was for.

Wen Jiao said, "If you’re interested, I’ll accept on your behalf. However, since you’ve chosen to marry Jinci, such occasions will not be few in the future."

Jinci’s status was too valuable, and in the whole circle, people were eager to cling to him like carps crossing a river.

Yet the man himself was extremely difficult to get along with, now everyone was evaluating what little miss Bian Yue weighed in Jinci’s heart.

Bian Yue didn’t mind being gossiped about, especially since she took the initiative for this marriage.

Thus, Bian Yue asked for the address, which was the riverside private room at the Xiangjiang Hotel.

Bian Yue said she would be there soon.

Hennessy Road was bustling with traffic during the day, just as lively as its night’s glitz and glamour, but without the neon lights and night sky, making the contrast between the two worlds even starker.

Bian Yue saw some young couples on the roadside, sitting on motorcycles, speeding along, youthful and invincible.

Bian Yue sat in the backseat of the Bentley, surrounded by the expensive fragrance that adorned the upper class, yet her mind was absent until the couple disappeared from sight, belatedly feeling envious.

The people in the private room had all arrived early, as the Shen Family had just suppressed the headline news of Jinci’s terminal illness with their wedding, and everyone wanted to see the heroine of this marriage and hear some firsthand gossip.

Liking to chat about others’ affairs, this trait is not limited by social class.

As Bian Yue opened the door, she heard a group of women inside laughing and discussing.

They were discussing someone’s father who had gotten a young student pregnant and was now competing with his wife over the man, and someone else who had recently acquired some land to build a new shopping center on.

Bian Yue walked in, and the gentle and sweet Miss Pan Ni was saying, "That An’an is really crafty! She’s back with Li Sihe again! Luckily, Bian Yue and Mr. Shen’s marriage is settled, otherwise, how embarrassing would it be?"

Pan Ni, possessing a plain and delicate beauty, reportedly because her mother was from the mainland and she took after her, was the sixteenth in the Pan Family and the youngest daughter.

The youngest daughter, pampered and spoiled, dared to say anything, only realizing the atmosphere was off after she finished.

Pan Ni, looking terrified from the glares around, saw Bian Yue standing by the door, her face turning pale.

"Bian Yue, we’ve been waiting for you!" Wen Jiao had been making calls outside, and now coming back in, saw Bian Yue standing by the door, smiling as she patted her shoulder, "Why don’t you come in instead of standing out here alone?"

Bian Yue just smiled as if nothing happened, softly saying, "I just arrived, and you were already standing next to me."

"That means we are in sync!" Wen Jiao laughed, pulling Bian Yue in and instructed the waiter to serve the food.

Everyone sat down, with Bian Yue taking the main seat, and Wen Jiao and Pan Ni on either side.

Pan Ni observing Bian Yue’s expression, her smile awkward, "Bian Yue, about what I just... I was just speaking without thinking, don’t take it to heart, and bear me a grudge..."

"Miss Pan jests, I won’t take it seriously," Bian Yue spoke with a smile in her eyes, her voice gentle, exuding an air of ease, "You are right, if I hadn’t married Jinci, it indeed would have been embarrassing."

"An An being the other woman is the embarrassing thing!" Pan Ni said embarrassedly, filled with righteous indignation, and then changing her expression, she curiously looked towards Bian Yue, "By the way, Bian Yue, how did you and Mr. Shen meet?"
