Chapter 158: Staying Alone in the Empty Room on the Wedding Night

Chapter 158: Staying Alone in the Empty Room on the Wedding Night

After putting on makeup, it's time to go to the wedding scene.

Many people came to the marriage between the Jiang and Shen families. They were all well-known figures in City A, and many of them were about the same age as Jiang Yuan. However, because Jiang Qi never forced her to go out socializing, and she was not a sociable person, she didn't know almost all of the people who came.

Jiang Yuan basically only appears at two birthday parties every year. There have always been stories about her in the circle, but many people have never seen her.

At the wedding today, they finally met Mr. Jiang's beautiful sister.

Jiang Qi's appearance is the best in the circle. Looking at his appearance, you can roughly guess how beautiful his sister is.

Now that they have seen the real person, they feel that their previous imagination was still a bit conservative.

It’s really a bargain for Shen Yu.

Shen Yu was only so lucky because he had a better relationship with Jiang Qi. Everyone knew that Miss Jiang didn't like going out and there were very few people she met.

There were people present who had had a good relationship with Jiang Qi, but no matter how good they were, they could not compare to the friendship between Jiang Qi and Shen Yu for more than ten years since childhood, and the loss of the right to marry Miss Jiang.

However, although Miss Jiang got married today, the Jiang family still has Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi is 28 years old and still not married. According to people familiar with the matter, he is worried about his sister.

Now that his sister is married and entrusted to someone Jiang Qi trusts, he will definitely feel at ease to start a family.

Everyone in the guest seats had their own thoughts. Some had already begun whispering to their daughters to talk to Jiang Qi more often. Some wealthy daughters had already taken out mirrors to fix their makeup.

Jiang's father passed away early, and she walked down the red carpet holding Jiang Qi's arm.

Unlike what is shown on TV where everyone's eyes are full of tears, one of them had a calm expression while the other's eyes were filled with deep reluctance, and in his eyes were complex emotions that she could not understand.

The Shen family and the Jiang family live in the same villa area, not too far apart, so it is very convenient for Jiang Yuan to go home or for Jiang Qi to visit him.

Although I left home, I didn't leave it completely.

The reluctance probably comes from not wanting to see my sister get married.

Jiang Yuan's hand was handed to Shen Yu. This was the third time they met, but it was the first time Jiang Yuan looked at him.

The last time we met was half a year ago, and the two families decided on the wedding date together.

Jiang Qi was in charge of all subsequent matters and had nothing to do with Jiang Yuan.

Although Jiang Yuan added Shen Yu as a friend, the two of them didn't chat much. Apart from a few sentences at the beginning, they never chatted again after that.

It's basically a stranger state.

When I saw Shen Yu again half a year later, he was different from what I remembered.

Shen Yu and Jiang Qi seem to be of completely different types. Shen Yu is as cold and ascetic as Han Chuan, and his whole body exudes an indifference that keeps people at a distance. The word gentle is naturally not associated with him.

Even on such an occasion, at his own wedding, facing the wife with whom he would spend the rest of his life, he remained expressionless.

So does Jiang Yuan.

The wedding came to the oath-taking stage. After Shen Yu finished his oath, it was Jiang Yuan's turn.

"Bride, are you willing to marry the bridegroom as your husband and live with him in a sacred marriage? Whether in sickness or health, poverty or wealth, beauty or fading, success or failure, you are willing to love him, comfort him, respect him, and protect him? And are willing to be faithful to him forever in your life?"

There was a brief pause after the priest finished reading, but even in these few short seconds, Jiang Yuan actually saw tension on Shen Yu's face.

It wasn't obvious, but she was close enough to see it clearly.

"I am willing."

When they toasted, Jiang Qi was surrounded by a large group of people. Due to past experiences, Jiang Qi and Jiang Yuan had no connection with those who coveted Jiang's father and mother's inheritance, so naturally they did not invite those people to the wedding.

Therefore, the table for the bride's family was not full, so there were many empty seats when someone came to see Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi was surrounded by people who came to congratulate him. Fortunately, everyone was tactful and made way for him when they saw the bride coming.

Jiang Qi has a good alcohol tolerance. Just now a group of people gave him some wine, and he can still drink it now.

Jiang Yuan only drank a few glasses of wine at the beginning, and Shen Yu drank the rest for her.

After the wedding, Jiang Yuan should go to Shen's house.

Shen Yu lost his mother at a young age, and his father never remarried after that.

Shen Yu has a younger brother, Shen Che, who did not attend the wedding today due to poor health.

Jiang Yuan was originally going back with Shen Yu, but on the way Shen Yu received a call saying that there was an urgent matter at the company that needed his attention, and it looked quite tricky, so even Shen's father went with him.

Jiang Yuan had already changed out of her wedding dress and removed her makeup and hair.

It is now eleven o'clock in the evening, and the lights in the Shen family villa are still on.

Shen Yu had already told her the password when she came, but Jiang Yuan didn't need to enter it.

Even so late, there were still two servants standing at the door of the Shen family, obviously waiting for her.

The car stopped at the door and someone immediately came over to open the door for Jiang Yuan.

"Hello, madam."

Jiang Yuan nodded in response, walked through the small courtyard in front of the yard and came to the gate.

The door was open, and the crystal chandelier in the living room emitted a warm yellow light.

The owner of the villa obviously has excellent taste, and the overall decoration of the house is low-key yet luxurious.

Although it is different from the Jiang family’s design, it can be seen that they are all in the same style.

There's nothing strange about living here.

It was already very late. Shen Yu had told her the location of the master bedroom before coming. Jiang Yuan was about to go upstairs when she saw a figure on the sofa out of the corner of her eye.

He was covered with a blanket of the same color as the sofa. If Jiang Yuan hadn't had sharp eyes, he wouldn't have noticed it.

Jiang Yuan walked over and stood in front of him.

The boy's skin was a little pale, with soft hair sticking to his forehead. He lay there with his eyes closed, looking well-behaved and lovable.

The servant lowered his voice and whispered, "The young master had a headache today and couldn't go out, so he didn't attend the wedding. He felt guilty and had been waiting for you on the sofa after dinner. He wanted to apologize to you in person. Maybe he was too tired and fell asleep while waiting."

Shen Che had been weak and sickly since childhood. His health gradually recovered, but he was still more susceptible to illness than the average person.

With Shen Yu taking care of the family, Shen Che doesn't have to do anything on weekdays. He has a regular and healthy schedule and goes to bed no later than 10 o'clock at the latest.

It's already past eleven o'clock, it would be strange if Shen Che wasn't sleepy.

It's also very late now, and most of the servants are resting, so the two of them are working overtime.

Shen Che didn't like women touching him, and it was not easy for the two of them to lift him up in a comfortable position, so they just covered him with a blanket and prepared to wake up the bodyguards and send Shen Che back to the room.
