Marrying the Wrong Mr. Right

Chapter 14: Encountering the Bar Again

Two weeks later, the wedding of Chu Haoxuan and Shen Ningxuan was held at the grand celebration organized by the Chu family. The Shen family only came to attend the wedding. Qiao Yuzhen was still thinking about asking for the betrothal money but didn't know how to bring it up. Recalling Chu Haoxuan's words from last time, she held back until the end of the wedding without saying anything.

Ye Yanbin watched the happy couple walking down the aisle, his heart bleeding with pain, but he was powerless. After all, it was he who had hurt Shen Ningxuan's heart in the past, and now the person getting married to Shen Ningxuan was his own uncle. He could only watch helplessly as the woman he loved married someone else. The feeling was one he would never forget for the rest of his life.

After the wedding, Chu Haoxuan and Shen Ningxuan moved into a luxury villa in the suburbs, a wedding gift from the old master. Seeing the spacious house that belonged to them, Shen Ningxuan's face showed a joyful expression. She had long wanted to own such a warm home.

And Chu Haoxuan, seeing the woman's happy demeanor, was also overjoyed in his heart. He didn't know when it started, but this woman's mood directly influenced his own. When she was happy, he felt relaxed; when she was sad and upset, he would frown.

The days passed by in a mundane fashion. In the past, Chu Haoxuan would rather stay in the army than go home, but since getting married, he wished he could spend twenty-four hours a day at home, watching the woman move around within his sight. However, all of these were just fantasies.

Shen Ningxuan, carrying her bag, planned to go to the bar to find Xia Lingwei. During the wedding, Xia Lingwei had been her bridesmaid, and she had not yet thanked this good sister. Today she had the time, so she decided to visit this good sister. She couldn't just forget her girlfriends after getting a man, right?

As soon as she walked into the bar, she saw Xia Lingwei mixing drinks at the bar counter. Shen Ningxuan happily walked over.

"Beauty Xia, how about a drink?" Shen Ningxuan pretended to be a customer.

Seeing it was Shen Ningxuan, Xia Lingwei said happily, "Ningxuan, you're here."

"En, when do you get off work? Let's go out for a walk," Shen Ningxuan said with a smile. "There's still half an hour left. Why don't you sit over there and wait for me?" Xia Lingwei suggested. "Okay, I got it." Shen Ningxuan sat in a corner, waiting for Xia Lingwei to get off work. Suddenly, Shen Ningxuan seemed to hear someone calling her. "Miss Shen," a voice came through. Shen Ningxuan quickly looked over, and it was actually An Yuhang. "An, President An," Shen Ningxuan promptly addressed him. An Yuhang sat opposite Shen Ningxuan, looking at her and gently spoke, "Did Miss Shen come today to wait for Xia Lingwei as well?" "Yes, Lingwei said she would get off work soon, so I'm sitting here waiting for her," Shen Ningxuan replied politely. Although the man in front of her gave off a sense of coldness and unapproachability, she just maintained the attitude of talking to an ordinary acquaintance and felt no pressure at all. "Oh, I see," An Yuhang said, "Then may I keep you company for a chat?"

“Seeing you sitting here all by yourself, it seems like you're not up to much.” Shen Ningxuan felt that chatting should be harmless, and she didn't mind talking to An Yuhang. As an ordinary friend, there was nothing inappropriate. Shen Ningxuan nodded gently. The scene of Shen Ningxuan and An Yuhang chatting in a corner of the bar was spotted by Lu Yu. Lu Yu had intended to come to the bar to find a buddy, but to his surprise, as soon as he entered the bar, he saw An Yuhang and Shen Ningxuan sitting there chatting. Although the two were just talking and occasionally laughing, without any overly intimate gestures, Lu Yu still felt a bit worried, especially since An Yuhang was not an outsider. Lu Yu eventually dialed Chu Haoxuan's number and informed him. After hanging up the phone, Lu Yu walked towards Shen Ningxuan and An Yuhang, his eyes filled with anger. Shen Ningxuan noticed someone slowly approaching from the corner of her eye and turned to see it was Lu Yu. “Lu Yu, how come you're here?” Shen Ningxuan was a bit surprised. Chu Haoxuan had said he was returning to the military today, so Lu Yu should have been there too. How could he appear in the bar? Lu Yu ignored Shen Ningxuan and stood beside her, glaring at An Yuhang with hatred. “An Yuhang, what exactly are you trying to do?” Lu Yu's words were laced with anger. An Yuhang, however, stared back at Lu Yu nonchalantly, “Mr. Lu, I'm just chatting with a friend. Is there anything wrong with that?” “An Yuhang, you should understand Chu Haoxuan's ways. Don't touch his things,” Lu Yu seemed to be warning. Shen Ningxuan, however, couldn't understand a word of what the two were talking about. Did they know each other? Were they very familiar?

Do they understand each other? An Yuhang was a bit infuriated by Lu Yu's words. He slowly stood up, his gaze locking with Lu Yu's, his tone chillingly intimidating, 'Lu Yu, shouldn't you understand the reason why I did this?' 'If there's anything, you can come to me and Haoxuan. Don't play petty tricks behind our backs,' Lu Yu said. Shen Ningxuan vaguely felt as if they were talking about her, yet she also sensed that there was more to their words. She slowly stood up, looking at Lu Yu beside her, and asked, 'Lu Yu, I just sat here waiting for Lingwei and had a few words with President An.' Lu Yu turned to look at Shen Ningxuan, wanting to tell her the truth, but he didn't have the courage, fearing that Chu Haoxuan would blame him. He could only helplessly say, 'Sister-in-law, it's not like that, I'm not blaming you.' 'Then are you blaming me?' An Yuhang suddenly blurted out. Lu Yu's gaze shifted back to An Yuhang, his eyes filled with hatred, wishing he could kill An Yuhang. His existence was a threat. 'An Yuhang, I'm warning you, don't bother Haoxuan again,' Lu Yu's anger made even Shen Ningxuan feel scared. An Yuhang's face also changed, 'You're not qualified to warn me.' 'Do I have the qualifications?' A voice came from a distance. The gazes of all three turned simultaneously to Chu Haoxuan. Chu Haoxuan walked over, standing directly in front of Lu Yu and Shen Ningxuan, his eyes meeting An Yuhang's, the hatred between his brows clearly visible. 'An Yuhang, do I need to say it a second time?'

Chu Haoxuan's aura was so powerful that it attracted the attention of many people around him. An Yuhang, however, remained calm, 'Chu Haoxuan, since you personally came, it seems that she holds a deep position in your heart, doesn't she?' Chu Haoxuan didn't care about An Yuhang's words; the person he cared about was Shen Ningxuan, so what did An Yuhang's words count for? 'An Yuhang, touch her, and I will make you pay the price,' Chu Haoxuan's words were a command, not a warning. 'Chu Haoxuan, I heard that you two got married through a blind date, there's no affection at all, right?' An Yuhang's words further stimulated Chu Haoxuan. Shen Ningxuan on the side was also surprised and couldn't help but call out, 'President An.' Shen Ningxuan had never expected that An Yuhang would use this fact to compete with Chu Haoxuan. She had just casually mentioned that she met Chu Haoxuan at a blind date, but she didn't expect An Yuhang to bring it up in such a way.
