I Became Super Rich After Resigning-Chapter 82 - Yuan Xi, Let Me Have Mom and Dad for Another Day
Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Yuan Xi, Let Me Have Mom and Dad for Another Day
Bao Yan looked at Chu Yan’s expression and sensed something was amiss. She asked, “What about the other bridesmaid?”
Chu Yan suppressed the panic in her heart. “Something came up with her family, how about we just go with five bridesmaids?”
Bao Yan was dejected. “We’ve already settled on six groomsmen; how can we change to five bridesmaids now?”
Chu Yan quickly sent a message to one of her own follower’s daughters, then told Bao Yan, “I’ll find someone right away to be the bridesmaid.”
Chu Yan, being well-known among the young ladies in social circles of Jiang City, had no shortage of little followers. Many young heiresses were flattered at the chance to be Chu Yan’s bridesmaid, so naturally, it didn’t take long to find a new one.
The rehearsal proceeded amidst bustling activity.
...
After the rehearsal, Chu Yan remembered Zhou Jiameng mentioning that Chairman Chu forbade Chuneng Group employees from attending her wedding, so she drove to Chu’s Mansion.
It had grown dark, and the iron gate of Chu’s Mansion was shut tight.
Chu Yan honked the car horn, but no one came to open the gate.
Chu Yan got out of the car and walked up to the entrance, shouting as she looked inside, “Nanny Zhang, it’s me, I’m back. Won’t you open the door for me?”
Nanny Zhang sighed helplessly. “Miss, Chairman Chu and the lady have ordered that you cannot enter the Chu Family.”
Chu Yan, in the rain, clasping the iron gate with both hands, pleaded, “Nanny Zhang, please, let me see my father and mother.”
Nanny Zhang looked at Chu Yan getting drenched in the rain and felt a pang of sorrow. “Please wait a moment.”
Inside Chu’s Mansion.
Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyuan were having a meal at the Chu Family’s home today.
Long ago, when they were on Star Island, Yuan Xi had received an invitation from Yang Ying to stay at the Chu Family’s for a few days, but those days were so busy without a free moment.

Today, it was only because Gu Hanchen had a rehearsal for the groomsmen that Yuan Xi managed to finish work early.
By coincidence, Yang Ying called again to invite her home, so Yuan Xi, together with Huo Shiyuan and Xiao Shihuo, came over to the Chu Family’s home for dinner.
At the dinner table, without Chu Yan and Chu Lin, the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Chu Qing watched as, over several meals, Huo Shiyuan had served dishes to Yuan Xi, peeled crabs, and shrimps for her and began to feel slightly more satisfied with this son-in-law.
Whether a man liked a woman or not, his eyes would not lie.
Chu Qing could see that Huo Shiyuan truly liked and cared for Yuan Xi.
Xiao Shihuo served a shrimp to Huo Shiyuan, who effortlessly peeled it and gave it to Yuan Xi.
Xiao Shihuo widened his eyes in surprise. “Brother, I wanted you to peel the shrimp for me! I want to eat the shrimp!”
Huo Shiyuan frowned tightly. “Peel it yourself, you’re big enough.”
Xiao Shihuo pointed at Yuan Xi. “But sister is much older than me, and all the shrimp she eats are peeled by you. I’m too small and don’t know how to peel them.”
Yuan Xi chuckled and handed the shrimp Huo Shiyuan had peeled for her to Xiao Shihuo. “Eat it.”
Yang Ying, seeing Xiao Shihuo smiling as he received the shrimp, laughed softly along.
Yang Ying never understood why Mrs. Gu, despite being young, had always been so eager to have grandchildren.
Now seeing Xiao Shihuo’s adorable little face, she was greatly looking forward to having grandchildren early, especially since Yuan Xi was already pregnant.
The bond they had missed with Yuan Xi, they could not afford to miss again with the beloved little grandchild.
Nanny Zhang came in at this moment and saw the warmth filling the dining room, pausing before she spoke, “Chairman Chu, madam, Yanyan is outside the large iron gate getting soaked in the rain, wanting to come in.”
Yuan Xi slightly knitted her brows and put down the chopsticks in her hand.
Yang Ying said, “She insists on marrying Bo Fan, so it’s impossible for me to let her enter Chu Family’s door again.”
As soon as Yang Ying finished speaking, the door was opened, and Chu Lin rushed in, travel-worn.
Chu Lin said, “Dad, Mom, if it weren’t for the news, I wouldn’t have known that Yanyan is getting married tomorrow. How could such a big matter not be discussed with me?”
Yuan Xi saw the suitcase carried by Chu Lin’s assistant and it was clear that Chu Lin had been away on a business trip for some time.
Yuan Xi finally understood why Chu Lin, the famous “sister-doting fanatic” of Jiang City, didn’t speak out for Chu Yan after the Chu Family kicked her out.
Chu Yan followed behind Chu Lin and entered, her figure pitiful and drenched in the rain, tears rolling down her cheeks.
“Dad, you once said that on my wedding day, you would hold my hand and entrust me to my other half. I’m getting married tomorrow, and I hope Dad can come hold my hand, personally hand me over to Bo Fan…”
Yang Ying said firmly, “Impossible, Chu Yan, we have already told you, if you insist on marrying Bo Fan, then you are no longer a member of the Chu Family!”
Chu Yan sobbed, “Mommy.”
Chu Qing also said, “The wedding is not until tomorrow, Chu Yan, you still have a chance to change your mind.”
Chu Yan looked at Huo Shiyuan, sitting next to Yuan Xi, pointed at him and said, “Dad, Mom, you chose Yuan Xi over me in a decision. I don’t blame you because after all, Yuan Xi is your biological daughter.
But I have also called you mom and dad for twenty-five years, you can’t just because your biological daughter didn’t marry to your liking, begrudge me for marrying Bo Fan, begrudge that my wedding is better than Yuan Xi’s.”
Chu Qing was extremely irritated and said, “Chu Yan! What’s so good about Bo Fan? His infidelity is public knowledge. When our Chu Family chooses spouses for our children, the most important thing is not wealth but character.
When I married your mother, her father’s family didn’t despise me for just being the owner of a small private gas station, and that’s how Chuneng Group stands today.
This John may not be as well-born as Bo Fan, but what counts is that he is wholeheartedly devoted to Yuan Xi, unlike Bo Fan, who made his indiscretions known to everyone.”
Yang Ying also said, “Chu Yan, if you still stubbornly insist on marrying Bo Fan, our relationship will be completely cut off. Tomorrow, no one from Chuneng Group will attend your wedding.”
Chu Yan cried with reddened eyes, “Mom, for the sake of Yuan Xi, are you going to disregard our Chu Family’s many years of friendship and face with the Bo Family?”
“Mom, you know about the collaboration between President Fu An and the Bo Family. The Bo Family’s position in Jiang City will only grow stronger in the future. If the Chu Family does not attend the wedding tomorrow, it would be tantamount to severing ties with the Bo Family!”
Chu Lin, who usually doted on his sister, also did not speak for Chu Yan this time.
Chu Lin said, “Yanyan, what do you mean by us severing ties with the Bo Family? Was it not Bo Fan who cheated first? If the Bo Family valued us, they wouldn’t have done such a disgusting thing.”
Chu Yan tearfully knelt and kowtowed, “Dad, Mom, even if you no longer wish to adopt me, tomorrow is the most important day of my life. Would you please come to my wedding? I beg you.”
Chu Yan’s tearful and ceaseless kowtowing was pitiful to see.
Nanny Zhang watched from the side, finding it heartrending.
Yang Ying looked at Chu Yan in such a sorry state, her expression softening slightly.
Chu Yan then knelt and kowtowed towards Yuan Xi, “I shouldn’t have instigated cyberbullying against you. I realize my mistake, Yuan Xi. I kowtow to you, please persuade Mom and Dad to come to my wedding!
Yuan Xi, just for one day tomorrow, can you let me have Mom and Dad? After that, I will never compete with you for them again, and I will willingly leave the Chu Family.”
Yuan Xi found Chu Yan kneeling and kowtowing quite disgusting, thinking she had a nerve to do it.
Chu Lin said, “Dad, Mom, Yanyan is now set on marrying Bo Fan, and no amount of persuasion will sway her. Tomorrow, Dad, you should still go to the wedding and give Yanyan’s hand to Bo Fan.”
Yuan Xi looked at the kowtowing Chu Yan, and a surge of morning sickness rose from the pit of her throat.
