Chapter 1415 - 1245: Love Will Never Be Lonely
The wedding banquet has reached the latter half, and some guests have started to leave. Several groomsmen and bridesmaids are responsible for seeing them off.
Yu Dou and Song Qingyang left after the ceremony and haven’t returned, but everyone present knows that this wedding is actually a business alliance.
It’s well-known that the Shi Family and the Song Family are currently collaborating on the Lishui Project, and the fate of both companies has greatly changed because of this project.
Whether this project can be successfully completed impacts the entire future development of these two companies.
Under such circumstances, whether Shi Yuanbo or Song Zhongming, they both hope to use a direct relationship to make this profit-driven collaboration more stable.
Thus, Song Qingyang, who was already engaged, marrying Yu Dou is undoubtedly the most reliable and solid method.
Naturally, everyone on-site knows one side of it but not the other.
Because the instigator of this marriage is actually Song Zhongming; Shi Yuanbo was not involved.
Although Shi Yuanbo also hopes to strengthen the relationship between the Shi Family and the Song Family, there is still Li Guirong between him and Yu Dou, and nowadays, Shi Yuanbo doesn’t really handle much of the company’s affairs.
That can only mean that Yu Dou sacrificed himself to fulfill Song Zhongming’s desires.
So, undoubtedly the happiest person at this wedding banquet is Song Zhongming.
In his mind, the Lishui Project and maximization of benefits are not the most important things.
All he wants is Yu Dou; he just wants to use Yu Dou to protect the Song Family and preserve his own life.
"Weddings are supposed to be events filled with happiness and warmth, but for some reason, I didn’t feel that from today’s wedding!"
Yao Ziwan looked at the still fairly bustling wedding venue and the guests chatting with wine glasses in hand, and couldn’t help but sigh.
Shi Nuan blinked her eyes and said, "What Sister Yao means is that you can’t feel the love?"
Yao Ziwan said, "Song Qingyang doesn’t love Yu Dou; the look in someone’s eyes when they love another isn’t like that... Yu Dou too, he doesn’t love Song Qingyang. Actually, the fact that Song Qingyang would marry Yu Dou doesn’t surprise me; what surprises me is why Yu Dou would choose to marry Song Qingyang. With his abilities, he could really choose freely among the socialites of T City..."
Shi Nuan pursed her lips and said, "I don’t find it strange at all. Sister Qingyang... Sister Qingyang is quite good!"
"But she is Song Zhongming’s daughter. Such a shrewd person as Yu Dou, how could he not see that the relationship between Mr. Song and Song Zhongming is not simple at the surface level? By marrying Song Qingyang, he essentially becomes Song Zhongming’s son-in-law, which surely pits him against Mr. Song in the future..."
Shi Nuan’s gaze rested on Song Zhongming; at this moment, he was chatting with Shi Yuanbo, and it was clear he was genuinely happy.
After a moment’s pause, Shi Nuan said, "I heard that when Yu Dou was young, his family situation wasn’t very good; his parents passed away when he was very little, and no relatives or friends were willing to take him in. He always relied on the kindness of others to complete his studies... Having experienced poverty and hardship, one desires success and recognition more strongly, and looking around T City, Sister Qingyang is considered outstanding among the socialites. Choosing her, I don’t think it’s strange at all..."
Yao Ziwan glanced at Shi Nuan with furrowed brows and in the end, didn’t say anything.
But actually, she agreed somewhat with Shi Nuan’s words.
Back then, didn’t she feel deeply lonely and isolated, which led her to develop such intense feelings for K, whom she had only met once?
But in truth, her father was quite good to her, and although her stepmother was only superficially amicable with her, she didn’t excessively make things difficult for her in private.
Yao Shuyan and her younger sister treated her quite well too.
It’s just that she resisted, resisted her mother’s absence, and the sudden arrival of so many unrelated people at home.
Because of the resistance, she didn’t feel warmth, and hence felt lonely.
However, K ultimately became a thing of the past; these eight years of waiting were only hers alone.
Just hers alone.
"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt, are you Miss Yao Ziwan?"
At this moment, a young man dressed like a staff member walked over and asked Yao Ziwan.
Yao Ziwan came to her senses and nodded, "Yes... I am!"
The young man nodded his head and said, "Hello Miss Yao, there is a girl outside claiming to be your sister, and she asked for you to come out for a moment!"
"Sister?" Yao Ziwan was stunned for a second, thinking, could it be Yu Fei? How did she come?
She answered in acknowledgment, "Alright, I understand, thank you!"
The staff member left, and Yao Ziwan said, "Nuannuan, my sister might have come, I’ll go out to take a look. Will you be alright by yourself?"
