Chapter 1419 - 1246: Shock: Public Announcement_2
This is not the main issue.
The guests attending this wedding mostly know about the relationship between Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan.
They also know about Shi Nuan’s previous engagement to Song Yichuan.
In other words, Shi Nuan was almost going to become Song Yansheng’s niece-in-law!
But at this moment, Song Yansheng is actually holding Shi Nuan, who nearly became his niece-in-law!
What a joke! Yes, what a joke!
Shi Nuan had to admit, she was indeed shocked, but this shock that disturbed Song Yansheng so much indeed took her by surprise.
But by the time she realized what was happening, it was already too late.
Song Yansheng had already hit someone and was tightly holding her in front of everyone.
Though she had to admit, leaning into the man’s embrace, she felt very at peace.
The fear in her heart gradually calmed down.
But it can’t be; this can’t be between them!
The first to react to everything was Shi Yuanbo. He quickly walked over and said, "Mr. Song, thank you for standing up for our Nuannuan. She seems to be quite frightened, you know how little girls are, they’re easily scared..."
Shi Yuanbo naturally understood Song Yansheng’s feelings for Shi Nuan, and he was very happy if Shi Nuan could marry Song Yansheng.
But no matter how wealthy and powerful Song Yansheng was, he couldn’t silence the public’s gossip.
Perhaps he didn’t care, but he, Shi Yuanbo, did.
He couldn’t let his daughter be criticized, especially when his daughter held even a slightly significant position and had work achievements at the Shi Family.
What he said earlier was to tell others that my daughter is still a child, she’s just scared.
And Song Yansheng could be considered Shi Nuan’s Second Uncle; this kind of concern could be understood as an elder caring for a junior.
Let everyone stop overthinking.
But at that moment, Song Yansheng suddenly remembered what Shen Zui said that evening.
Indeed, in the half year he had been married to Shi Nuan, he hadn’t given Shi Nuan anything, especially the fact that he couldn’t make their relationship public.
Though clearly husband and wife, at such public occasions similar to a wedding banquet, they dared not say a word, couldn’t say a word.
Just as he entered the room, he saw her, seeing her with Yao Ziwan, he felt at ease then.
Throughout the wedding, he continuously observed her.
Earlier, seeing her hiding in a quiet corner drinking juice alone, he thought it was fine.
His little girl should be like this.
Of course, with Shi Nuan’s pure and beautiful looks, being approached by men was reasonable.
Previously, this happened on a few occasions, but during those times, with Yao Ziwan by her side, Shi Nuan didn’t have to say much, and Yao Ziwan had already chased the guys away.
Now, with Yao Ziwan not around, as for Shi Nuan, she wasn’t very adept at evasive maneuvers.
However, this matter was partly his fault.
Earlier, he noticed Shi Nuan’s juice was gone.
He called over a staff member to have them prepare a cup of hot mango juice.
But was then informed there were no mangoes left, so naturally, no mango juice either.
Just as he wanted to ask Chi Rui to buy some, during the time he was about to call Chi Rui, the incident with Shi Nuan occurred, making him feel guilty.
Shi Yuanbo’s attempt to console him was well-intentioned, but now, he suddenly didn’t want to accept this kindness.
He wanted to give Shi Nuan a legitimate identity, wanted to tell everyone, Shi Nuan was his person, his rightfully wed wife!
He didn’t want Shi Nuan to feel wronged, didn’t want to sneak around with Shi Nuan anymore; he wanted to love Shi Nuan openly and brightly.
He didn’t move, still firmly embracing Shi Nuan.
And Shi Nuan, just regaining some clarity, realized what was happening.
She struggled slightly, softly reminding, "Second Uncle, let go of me... quickly!"
Song Yansheng squinted his eyes.
Shi Yuanbo spoke again, "Mr. Song, thank you for protecting our Nuannuan, please hand her over to me. I will comfort her properly..."
Song Yansheng’s dark eyes flickered slightly, first glancing at Shi Yuanbo, then casually sweeping his gaze over the crowd.
After a while, his thin lips moved, saying, "No need to trouble the father-in-law, I will comfort my own wife!"
...
— No need to trouble the father-in-law, I will comfort my own wife!
A simple sentence, just a few words, spoken with a light and gentle tone.
But, it was just this sentence that left everyone present momentarily dumbfounded, completely stunned!
What? Father-in-law? Wife?
Whose father-in-law? Whose wife?
What was going on...
The air condensed for a few seconds, then someone finally reacted!
