After Breaking Up, I Married the Dying Tycoon in a Flash
Chapter 29: Deep Affection

Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Deep Affection

On the day of the wedding, Jinci took care of everything, not allowing Yueyue to worry about a thing.

Yueyue had finished the procedures early and went back to rest.

Knowing that Yueyue wasn’t attending the wedding filled with happiness, Jinci didn’t ask her to wear a facade and go through with the ceremonies.

Jinci only hoped that Yueyue would be a bit happier.

Different from Yueyue’s contentment, the front page headline of the Xiangjiang Evening News and the trending searches were all about this wedding of the century.

From the news, Yueyue learned that the sapphire necklace casually worn around her neck when she left home in the morning was actually a unique piece from the coronation ceremony of the queen of Country Y, worth an astronomical figure.

On the eve of the wedding, when Jinci hadn’t returned home one night, it was because he took a private plane overseas to personally bid for this necklace at an auction.

Yueyue had no idea how much trouble this tiny gem had gone through before finally being worn on her neck.

It was also that night of the wedding when, for the first time this century, Victoria’s fireworks lit up the night sky all night.

Yueyue sat in the rest area, watching the splendid fireworks from the best vantage point.

Those young ladies from noble families all envied the spectacle of Yueyue’s wedding.

A scene that could be called once in a century.

No one knew why Mr. Shen, such a low-key person, would be so ostentatious with his wedding, so in the end, they could only think it must be due to immense love.

Yueyue wasn’t so bold as to flatter herself like that; she thought perhaps the recent negative news had too big an impact on Lixing Group, so they had no choice but to divert attention with such a lavish and extravagant wedding.

When Jinci returned home, it was late into the night.

His body carried a faint scent of alcohol but his complexion didn’t show it, seeming as if nothing had happened.

In the living room, Yueyue sat on the sofa with her knees hugged, quickly standing up when she saw the pair enter.

She noticed that Jinci had been drinking and frowned as she took over from Kang Yu in supporting him.

Jinci’s eyes drooped as he saw Yueyue with a serious look taking over to support him, and he bent forward to gently rest his chin on her shoulder.

Yueyue didn’t notice Jinci’s small gesture, she steadied him, and couldn’t help but frown with concern, "Your health isn’t good, and you’re sick, why would you drink so much?"

Kang Yu tactfully left.

The night was bright, and Jinci’s eyes held a scattered smile; he gently pinched Yueyue’s cheek, his voice soft, "Happy, I accidentally drank a bit too much."

Yueyue truly didn’t know what there was to be so happy about.

She helped Jinci sit down on the nearby sofa, "I’ll pour you a glass of water."

After speaking, she intended to stand up.

The man grabbed her wrist, gently pulling her into his embrace, he said, "Yueyue, stay and talk with me, will you?"

Yueyue agreed, asking Jinci what he wanted to talk about.

Under the light, Jinci looked at Yueyue’s delicate and beautiful face; her complex wedding dress had been custom-made by a top luxury Italian designer, understated luxury making the little princess shine.

But now, wearing pajamas, her face washed clean of makeup, her apricot eyes clear, and her lips rosy red.

Jinci realized he loved Yueyue even more when she was unadorned like this.

Perhaps because Yueyue in full dress was simply too dazzling, dazzling to the point that it made his heart flutter.

He seemed to have been strategizing ever since he was pushed into this position.

But Bian Yue was uncontrollable.

Shen Jinci knew that Bian Yue was not a doll that he could control; she was intelligent and calm, had her own bottom lines and principles, and possessed her own radiant aura.

Bian Yue shone brightly wherever she was, not just dazzling when by Shen Jinci’s side.

Yet at this moment, the bright moon he had coveted for so many years was hanging high right before him, visible only to him.

How could he not feel secretly pleased?

Shen Jinci’s fingers affectionately traced Bian Yue’s eyebrows and eyes, with a faint smile on his face, "You look... very beautiful in your wedding dress today."

It was obviously heartfelt.

After all, Bian Yue was a girl, and of course, she liked being told she looked good. With an unhidden smile and confident pride, she said, "Of course, I’m already pretty, so I surely look good in a wedding dress too."

"Uh-huh." Shen Jinci stroked her hair, his smile deepening, "I’ll go to the company and deal with some work tonight, so you should go to bed early."

Bian Yue frowned, looking anxiously at Shen Jinci’s slightly drunken eyes with concern, "You’re going to the company today too? You’ve been busy all day. Maybe you shouldn’t go, get some rest early!"

Shen Jinci just looked at Bian Yue, not saying a word.

Bian Yue became even more anxious, blinking uneasily, "What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

Shen Jinci gazed at her leisurely, teasingly and rarely in jest, "Where should I rest?"

His gentle whisper left Bian Yue belatedly blushing and standing still, not knowing what to say.

A soft emotion flickered in Shen Jinci’s eyes. He touched Bian Yue’s hair and didn’t continue to joke. He paused before saying, "We’re just in a partnership. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you. It’s late, go get some rest."

The wedding night passed without waves, more smoothly than Bian Yue had anticipated.

Bian Yue sat on the bed, messaging Wen Jiao who was far away overseas.

Bian Yue said, "Shen Jinci doesn’t seem to plan on sleeping in the same room as me."

Wen Jiao excitedly called, which Bian Yue answered, only to hear Wen Jiao’s shocked voice, "Bian Yue, did Shen Jinci go to a temple before to become a monk? He actually won’t even enter your room?"

Bian Yue composed her words, after a while, she carefully said, "Maybe it’s because Shen Jinci doesn’t like me and doesn’t want our partnership to be any more entangled?"

"Nonsense! How could Shen Jinci not like you? That day, he went to Xiangjiang Hotel to give Shi An’an a lesson for your sake. If he didn’t like you, how could he have done that? Pan Ni and the others said that Shen Jinci must fancy you!"

Wen Jiao was confident, but Bian Yue found it amusing and hurriedly said, "Don’t talk nonsense, it’s really not like what you think! Just before he left, he said again that we are just partners."

"Alright, I won’t argue with you, whatever you say goes!" Wen Jiao responded cheerily, "Little princess, come on, tell me, what interesting things happened at the wedding?"

Bian Yue said nothing; she had left early.

Wen Jiao knew she wouldn’t get any news from Bian Yue, but still couldn’t help thinking about the gossip she had just heard.

Apparently, Li Sihe had looked for Shen Jinci at the wedding.

Obviously, Bian Yue was unaware of it.

At this moment in Lixing Group, in the chairman’s office, two men sat opposite each other, with the night sky outside the window so deep that it seemed bottomless.

Li Sihe, not yet recovered from his serious illness, looked pale. Seeing Shen Jinci suppressed his cough, Li Sihe momentarily felt a mistaken sense of empathy.

But the next second Li Sihe sneered, his voice cool and slow, "Mr. Shen looks unwell; are you sick too?"

"Given the overwhelming news recently, I thought you might have seen it." Shen Jinci’s expression was calm, without causing ripples, "I wonder, what brings Mr. Li here so late?"
