628 Something Wrong
The crowd was very alert and began to praise them. Shen Hanxing could not help but look up at Ji Yan with a reproachful look. Her cheeks blushed slightly. She liked how Ji Yan cared for her without hiding it at all.
Shen Hanxing pursed her lips and was about to say something when a voice was heard. “Cousin brother, cousin-in-law.”
Looking in the direction of the voice, Cheng Songyang was seen wearing a light-colored suit. His hair was neatly combed and he had a warm smile on his face. He was standing outside the crowd and looking over. Standing beside him, Bai Youyou was so thin that she was out of shape. Bai Youyou secretly kept a distance from Cheng Songyang while staring at Ji Yan.
How did Bai Youyou become so thin? She was originally a charming beauty. Now, she was wearing beautiful clothes and had proper makeup on, but no one would say that she was beautiful. Her cheeks were sunken like a skeleton underneath a thin layer of skin. She could not even hold up her clothes.Her eyes looked particularly big on her skinny face. She appeared inexplicably a little creepy. Shen Hanxing’s brows furrowed coldly.
As if he didn’t notice Shen Hanxing’s displeasure, Cheng Songyang held Bai Youyou’s hand and walked through the crowd to stand in front of them. He looked at Shen Hanxing and stretched out his hand with a smile. “It’s been a while. You look more radiant now, cousin-in-law.” He looked handsome and gentle. His gold-rimmed glasses made him look even more refined and polite, but his smile made Shen Hanxing feel extremely uncomfortable. Behind his gentle-looking eyes, there seemed to be a venomous snake clinging onto her and ready to give her a fatal blow. Was it an illusion? She felt that Cheng Songyang was different from before.
Before Ji Mei went to prison and when Cheng Liu was alright, Cheng Songyang didn’t look as unpleasant as he did now.
“It’s been a long time.” Perhaps sensing Shen Hanxing’s discomfort, Ji Yan suddenly took a step forward and stood in front of her, blocking Cheng Songyang’s gaze. He said softly, “Your wedding with Miss Bai Youyou should be happening soon, right?”
“It’s rare that you’d care about such trifle matters.” Cheng Songyang smiled, “It’s about time. I’ll invite both of you to the wedding.” He shook hands with Ji Yan. As both of them exchanged stares, a hidden sharpness flashed in their eyes.
The crowd was smart and sensed the strange atmosphere. It was a family matter after all, so they did not stay any longer. Soon, the people around Ji Yan left one after another. The previously lively scene turned into almost silence in a moment, leaving only the four of them.
“Youyou, why didn’t you say hello to cousin brother and cousin-in-law?” After a long while, Cheng Songyang was the first to pull his hand back. He silently hid his red and painful hand behind his back and gently shook it. The smile in his eyes deepened. He couldn’t help but look at Shen Hanxing. However, when he realized that she was completely blocked by Ji Yan, Cheng Songyang’s gaze turned cold again. His cousin shook his hand really hard just now. The more strength Ji Yan used to shake his hands, the more it showed that he was bothered. It was unexpected. The cold, perfect, and cold-hearted person like Ji Yan had a weakness too. How stupid.
Since Ji Yan’s weakness was exposed, he couldn’t be blamed for being ruthless. Many thoughts flashed through Cheng Songyang’s mind, but the smile on his face didn’t change. He reached out to hold Bai Youyou and urged her in a warm voice, “Let’s invite them to our wedding together, okay?”
From the moment Bai Youyou appeared, her eyes were fixed on Ji Yan. There was a dull and bright light in her eyes as if she was obsessed with him. It was a little scary. She only came bac to her senses when she felt a tight grip around her waist and heard Cheng Songyang speak. When she realized what Cheng Songyang was saying, her expression suddenly changed. She shouted, ” “Who wants to marry you? I won’t marry you, don’t even think about it!”
Something was wrong. Bai Youyou’s reaction seemed to be slow. She was immersed in her own thoughts and did not connect with the outside world. When she suddenly realized it, her reaction was over-the-top. It was as if she could not control her emotions.
