If you provoke Chen Dongwen and make him unhappy, it would be bad if he retaliates against them in secret.
Some people were eager to express themselves and couldn’t help but shout at Su Changfeng in front of Chen Dongwen.
"Su Changfeng, get the hell out of here, this is not a place where you can propose."
"Who wants to see you propose up there? Get out immediately."
"If you don’t come down, we’ll have security escort you out."
Su Changfeng stood up with an indifferent expression.
Tang Qiulu tightly held Su Changfeng’s hand, feeling a bit nervous and scared, because this was Chen Dongwen’s wedding venue, and Su Changfeng’s actions could easily lead to public outrage.
At this point, another round of applause was heard.
Everyone was surprised and turned their heads to see who was clapping.
An angry Chen Dongwen said in annoyance, "Who’s going against me? If you’ve got the guts, stand up!"
Gu Qing’er clapped as she walked in, and when the crowd saw Gu Qingwen and Gu Qingwen together, they quickly covered their mouths and swallowed back their curses.
Fortunately, they held their tongues in time, as cursing the Gu Family would mean they couldn’t survive in Jiang City.
Chen Dongwen seemed to be hit by lightning, standing frozen in place.
The person clapping was actually Gu Qing’er!
Li Cuiwen ran to Gu Qingwen and said coldly, "Qingwen, I don’t know where they came in from, but they dared to cause trouble at Dongwen’s wedding. You must stand up for our Chen Family."
Gu Qingwen sneered, turned his head towards Li Cuiwen and said, "I don’t have the qualifications to stand up for you now."
Li Cuiwen looked at Gu Qingwen in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
At this moment, Gu Qing’er said, "I was the one clapping, I’m standing right here."
Frightened out of his wits, Chen Dongwen hurriedly ran to Gu Qing’er and said quickly, "Qing’er, I’m terribly sorry, it was just something said in the heat of the moment, I didn’t know it was you."
"Don’t call me so affectionately, do we really have that kind of relationship?" Gu Qing’er said disdainfully.
Chen Dongwen tried to get closer to the Gu Family, calling all the members affectionately.
Previously, he called Gu Qing’er "Qing’er" and she said nothing, but now her sudden change in attitude left him puzzled.
"Qing’er, if you’re upset, I can compensate you. You can buy whatever you want," Chen Dongwen said.
"Compensate?" Gu Qing’er smiled slightly and said, "Do I, Gu Qing’er, need anyone else’s money to buy what I want? Do you look down on me, Gu Qing’er, or the Gu Family?"
These words made Chen Dongwen feel numb, as he couldn’t possibly look down on the Gu Family. Although they were partners, the Li Family didn’t have the standing to speak uprightly in front of the Gu Family. If the Gu Family wanted to change partners, it would only take a word.
"No, no, no, I didn’t mean it that way. I just wanted to make up for what I said," Chen Dongwen said.
"If you want to make amends, then kneel," Gu Qing’er said coldly. Since Chen Dongwen kicked Su Changfeng, if Su Changfeng didn’t settle the score, she would do it for him.
Upon hearing this, Chen Dongwen’s face turned ashen: it was his wedding, and at such a venue, he was the main character. If he kneeled, the wedding would become a joke.
He often viewed Su Changfeng’s previous wedding as a joke, and didn’t want that to replay at his own ceremony.
"Uncle Qingwen, can’t we discuss this after the wedding?" Chen Dongwen asked Gu Qingwen.
Gu Qingwen looked at Su Changfeng and said calmly, "No, you kicked Su Changfeng earlier; do you think this matter can just be settled like that?"
"What!" Chen Dongwen looked at Gu Qingwen in disbelief.
How could this coward Su Changfeng be Gu Qing’er’s brother!
Gu Qing’er walked over to Su Changfeng, with a radiant smile on her face, "Brother, you really know how to spread sweetness, I’m so jealous."
Su Changfeng smiled helplessly; it was sudden, and even he hadn’t expected it, driven by an impulse from deep within.
He suddenly thought of the grievances Tang Qiulu endured during their three years of marriage and the words she said when he knelt on one knee during their photoshoot on Heaven Island, making him feel he should propose to Tang Qiulu.
Although they were already married, this act seemed unnecessary to outsiders, but to Su Changfeng, it was something he had to do for Tang Qiulu.
"What are you up to here?" Su Changfeng asked.
Gu Qing’er pouted and said, "The Chen Family has some cooperation with our Gu Family, so my dad came over, kind of giving them some face."
Su Changfeng nodded, understanding why Chen Dongwen dared to make things difficult for him, relying on the Gu Family connection.
After Gu Qing’er finished speaking, she walked to Tang Qiulu, held her hand and asked, "Sister-in-law, what does it feel like to have someone propose to you? Happy?"
Tang Qiulu felt a bit embarrassed, she had been too moved earlier, crying until her makeup was ruined. Now, thinking back, she felt shy having cried in front of everyone.
"Happy." Although feeling shy, the happiness in her heart was undeniable. Proposing during someone else’s wedding was crazy, something only Su Changfeng would dare to do.
Looking at the affectionate interaction between Gu Qing’er and the Su-Tang couple, Chen Dongwen felt a bit despondent.
Back at Gu Changsheng’s birthday banquet, Gu Changsheng showed a degree of importance towards Su Changfeng, leading many to believe it was all just for using Su Changfeng.
To put it bluntly, Su Changfeng was considered a puppet, having no status in the eyes of the Old Master Gu.
These rumors widely spread among Jiang City’s upper society, leading many, including Chen Dongwen, to believe them. That’s why he dared to create trouble for Su Changfeng.
But looking at the situation now, the facts clearly differ from the rumors.
Were Su Changfeng truly being used by the Gu Family, Gu Qing’er wouldn’t recognize him as her brother.
Besides Chen Dongwen, others present were equally shocked. If Gu Qing’er truly acknowledged Su Changfeng as her brother, his position would be beyond theirs.
Many people looked at Su Changfeng with changes in their eyes, recalling the incident at Jiuwu Square, further persuading them Su Changfeng was not simple.
"Qingwen, this isn’t a big deal; let Dongwen proceed with the wedding first," said Chen Zhenhai, Chen Dongwen’s father, approaching Gu Qingwen, hoping to resolve the matter as they had a good relationship.
