"I..." Shuman didn’t know what to say; Shao Zhiheng’s meaning was all too clear, leaving no room for maneuver.
She glanced up at Gu Annan as if he were her mainstay.
Gu Annan still stood there, unconcerned, and said to Shao Zhiheng, "She won’t talk."
Shuman immediately nodded, "I... won’t tell anyone."
Lu Wanwan had a solemn expression, walking out while holding Xu Yuan’s arm.
She didn’t know what had transpired, but now she didn’t want to ask anything extra.
The indescribable feeling in her heart made her just want to leave this place immediately.
"Wait for me in Parking Lot C," Shao Zhiheng added before the two of them stepped out.
Lu Wanwan glanced at Xu Yuan, who had been silent the whole time and didn’t express any opinion.
They could only talk about it once outside, after all, what else could she say in front of so many people?
Shao Zhiheng decided not to get married and seemed to have his mind set, not something Xu Yuan could change.
After causing such a scene, Ji Shaoyang shook his head, "Think it through. Calling off the wedding now could minimize the fallout. If you back out on the wedding day... the Xiao Family will hate you, your parents won’t forgive you, and others in the Shao Family who would rather you not marry will use this as an opportunity to suppress you. Even if your grandfather likes you, it won’t stand against such public pressure."
Shao Zhiheng’s lips curled into a wicked smile, "Underestimating me? No matter how great the pressure, if it really comes to marrying someone else, I’d rather die!"
Ji Shaoyang looked at his frustrating attitude and knew it was pointless to say anything.
No one knew what had happened between him and Xu Yuan, but this attitude of preferring death to marriage with someone else was definitely new.
"Looks like there won’t be a wedding feast," Ji Shaoyang said, not surprised nor regretful.
Given Shao Zhiheng’s temperament, Ji Shaoyang had already found it unbelievable when he agreed to the marriage.
If this marriage did go through, it’s likely that the girl would be marrying in vain.
If they didn’t divorce within three months, he’d write his name backward!
"What’s this about?" Ji Shaoyang asked, noticing the disarray on Gu Annan’s clothes, which looked like they’d been clawed at, with some damp spots.
He glanced at Shuman; without saying it directly, he believed that Gu Annan would understand.
Lu Wanwan must have seen it a moment ago, her face didn’t look too good either.
"Big Brother Ji, you’ve got it wrong... just now, there was a little girl, clinging to him and wouldn’t let go," Shuman quickly explained, worried his friend might think she was too casual.
"Little girl?" Ji Shaoyang looked at her with an even more meaningful gaze.
What kind of little girl could cling to Gu Annan without letting go?
Or rather, since when would Gu Annan tolerate a little girl clinging to him without letting go if he didn’t allow it?
It was an ovesible attempt at concealment!
He had always thought Gu Annan wasn’t the type to mess around; if he was stirring up trouble with another woman just to make Lu Wanwan jealous, it was too unfair for her.
Better for her to find a real boyfriend than to be messed around by Gu Annan .
Ji Shaoyang glared at Gu Annan with dissatisfaction and walked away.
When Gu Annan came out of the restroom, those two kids had already disappeared.
"Big Brother Gu, should I explain it to Big Brother Ji again?"
Gu Annan wasn’t in the mood to care about her feelings at the moment, he took out his phone, and said to her, "You go to the event hall and see what Shao Zhiheng is making a fuss about."
Once Shuman left, he dialed Zhao Chen’s number, "Pull up the guest list, see if anyone’s surname is Mo. And send a few people over, I need to find someone now."
