Chapter 407: Chapter 407

Shen Bin looked at his adoptive parents, gave just a light glance, and didn’t say much else, only nodded. Yet this simple gesture made three of the four people in front of him smile, while only Shen Chun remained silent.

The people who were taken out of the compound were brought back by Shen Bin, and he even called security over, directly asking to have them taken to the restaurant first, then returned inside. Ye Zhenfen knew her son brought them back again, and her face naturally did not look good. But after all, her cultural upbringing was there, and with so many people from the compound watching, she couldn’t just disregard everything and lose her temper; she could only force a smile.

Yet after being in poor health for some years, and thinking about not knowing when she might pass on, seeing the Shen Family act this way today, Ye Zhenfen vaguely told the wedding guests that these adoptive parents were the ones who secretly took the child away back then, leaving everyone stunned.

Ye Zhenfen, however, had her own plans. Without saying much, if one day she was gone, and the Shen Family unapologetically clung to her son, regardless of the truth, others might see it as her son being unfilial. It was better to reveal what the Shen Family was truly like, so that even if her son disregarded them in the future, no one would accuse him of being ungrateful.

After revealing the truth, Ye Zhenfen’s anger subsided a bit. Her son went to pick up the bride, and her mood improved. Speaking of the flat, after having breakfast, Ye Ling tidied up the house before changing into her wedding dress. She also simply styled her hair herself, and a pair of red high-heeled shoes exuded joy. Her entire outfit was arranged by the Shen Family.

Ye Qian looked at Ye Ling’s wedding dress with envy, but didn’t show it on her face. After their falling out that night, she only smiled faintly and had nothing to say. If it weren’t for Ye He Ping’s presence, Ye Qian wouldn’t have been able to muster a smile. Bai Xue, disapproving of Ye Ling’s good fortune, commented on Ye Ling’s wedding dress, saying white is unlucky, prompting a sharp look from Ye He Ping, silencing her.

Bai Hehua, however, spoke enviously, "Little sister, you look so beautiful; the Li Family treats you so well."

It’s impossible not to feel jealous, but this compliment pleased Ye Ling. No matter what, you can’t hit a smiling face, and on the other side, it deepened Ye Qian’s jealousy toward Ye Ling, killing two birds with one stone.

Before Ye Ling could respond, or perhaps she never planned to speak, she only smiled faintly. Over there, Bai Xue’s sharp voice continued the conversation, "Speaking of which, I wonder what the Li Family is thinking. Since their biological son has returned, why hasn’t Shen Bin’s surname been changed to Li? Why is he still Shen? What did the Li Family say?"

Bai Xue sat there with an air of seniority, lofty and dismissive. She originally thought the other people in the room would echo her, but after a moment, hearing no response, her face flushed with embarrassment.

Ye Qian resented her mother for picking at the Li Family with so many people present on such a day, feeling unhappy inside, but outwardly she could only help save face for her mother, "Mom, you’re worrying too much. You’re concerned about my sister, but this is the Li Family’s matter, don’t fret over it."

Bai Xue forced a smile, saying, "I’m just worried about your sister."

Her husband shot her a harsh look, and Bai Xue dared not speak recklessly again.

Everyone in the room came from the compound, who couldn’t see through Bai Xue’s intentions, knowing she was displeased with her eldest daughter. But on such a joyous day, she also behaved so unsympathetically, people naturally didn’t respond to her, especially since the other side was a leader.

Ye Ling completely acted as if she hadn’t heard, never placing her thoughts on her mother. Surrounded by Zhao Guodong and the others, when Xiang Weilai entered the room, he only congratulated Ye Ling, then remained silent, just standing quietly by, watching Ye Ling with a tender smile, a pampering smile, making Ye Ling’s heart sink. She knew the two were impossible, and after adjusting her mood and looking over at Xiang Weilai again, her face carried a calm smile.

Xiang Weilai’s smile remained unchanged, but his heart was filled with bitterness.

He knew Ye Ling truly let go of him, knowing well that doing so was fair to Shen Bin and was the right thing to do, yet he couldn’t help but feel sad.

When they heard the knocking from outside, everyone knew it was the groom coming to fetch the bride, and they all went out to greet him. Zhao Guodong and a few others took the lead, blocking the entrance, teasing Shen Bin for red envelopes, giving one each, before letting them in. After the formalities of recognizing relatives and changing the bride’s shoes, until Ye Ling was carried out and seated in the Jeep, as the car slowly started up, with the sound of firecrackers echoing, Ye Ling finally truly felt she was married.

Living through two lifetimes, the first time getting married was quiet without alerting anyone, just obtaining a certificate. Now, living a second life, marrying the same person again, it’s this grand. When getting on the flower-decorated car, even with just a glance, Ye Ling saw four or five cars parked outside. In this era, using cars for marriage was rare, and having five or six was unheard of. This kind of spectacle was beyond Ye Ling’s own expectations.

"Are you nervous?" Beside her, Shen Bin’s voice was cool, but Ye Ling could hear the hidden joy within.

Ye Ling truthfully shook her head, "Not nervous."

After living two lifetimes, even though she hadn’t experienced it all, she could face some things with calmness.

Shen Bin slightly tugged at the corners of his mouth and said in a low voice, "Some people from my hometown came, and during the toasting, don’t take what they say to heart."

Seeing him reminding her , Ye Ling knew he was concerned for her. Get full chapters from NoveI~Fire.net

Ye Ling’s heart warmed, smiling brightly and nodded. No matter what, the two were already considered a couple. Living together for a lifetime, being able to discuss things with each other and being considerate of each other is a good start.

Seeing Shen Bin still staring at her, Ye Ling thought he was still not at ease and softly said, "I remember what you said, don’t worry, I know what’s important."

The adoptive parents, who were the ones who took him away initially, wouldn’t matter to Ye Ling. On this joyous day, she would give them face, but in the future, that depends on whether they wanted to maintain face. If not, Ye Ling wouldn’t tolerate them.

Shen Bin seriously said, "I used to see village brides wearing thick makeup during weddings. But now looking at you, I find not wearing makeup looks better."

This person, suddenly saying this, even though Ye Ling didn’t think much of it, she couldn’t help but blush. The driver in front couldn’t hold back a laugh. Ye Ling, realizing she was being teased, glanced at Shen Bin half-jokingly, half-angrily, and turned her head to look out the window, ignoring him, but her hand was held tightly by Shen Bin, feeling the gentle rub of his thumb on the back of her hand, and slowly, a warm feeling welled up from within her heart.
