My Ex-Wife Disappeared for Years and Had My Babies-Chapter 71 - 68 Banquet Celebration (3)_2

Chapter 71: Chapter 68 Banquet Celebration (3)_2

Shen Hanxiu pulled her down, and seeing her pouting lips about to cry, he said, “Let’s walk together with Mom.”

Su Zhen then smiled happily, tightly holding onto Shen Hanxiu’s fingers with one hand, and turned to hold Su Nian’s hand, “Mom, let’s walk together.”

Su Nian didn’t want to make a scene. If she had driven herself today, she would now want to take her child and go home: “We’re not going over, we’ll sit here, and after we’re full we’ll go home.”

Su Zhen turned her head to look at Shen Hanxiu and immediately protested: “No, we want to go to the front.”

Deng Tonglian, looking at how her son and the Su Family were tugging and pulling, couldn’t help but burst into anger: “How can you be so thoughtless, little girl? How did your mother teach you?”

Su Zhen, who was most afraid of being scolded, immediately cried out in grievance, clinging to Shen Hanxiu and complaining while crying, “Wuu… this old hag is so mean… I don’t want to talk to her…”

...

Su Nian was also stunned, not expecting Su Zhen to say such things. As she reached out to hold her, Shen Hanxiu had already picked her up first, his big hand wiping the tears from her small face, with an indulgent and doting expression coaxing her: “Okay, we won’t talk to her, let’s find something delicious over there.”

Saying so, he turned and walked away, leaving Deng Tonglian with a greenish complexion with anger. She was Shen Hanxiu’s biological mother, yet she couldn’t compare to a little girl who showed up unexpectedly!

Unable to do anything to Shen Hanxiu, Deng Tonglian then turned to Su Nian and said resentfully: “Like mother, like daughter!” before angrily turning to leave.

Su Nian found the scene amusing when she thought back on it. When she had just married Shen Hanxiu, she was given a hard time by Deng Tonglian, but luckily, Shen Hanxiu had his own opinions, and even when Deng Tonglian disagreed, there was nothing she could do.

Every time Deng Tonglian criticized Su Nian, Shen Hanxiu always stood by Su Nian’s side.

Deng Tonglian did things her way, and Shen Hanxiu generally ignored them, just like this time when Deng Tonglian unilaterally announced the engagement with the Su Family, he did not come forward to clarify anything.

While they made a fuss, Shen Hanxiu was like a bystander, sitting steady in his fishing boat amidst the storm.

Su Bao tugged at Su Nian, chasing in Shen Hanxiu’s direction: “Mom, Su Zhen will be sold off like this.”

Indeed, Su Zhen was now too dependent on Shen Hanxiu. What would she do if one day Shen Hanxiu set his sights on Su Zhen?

On the stage, Su Guotian held the microphone, and after a bunch of thank-you speeches, he said solemnly: “Today, the birthday party is one thing, there is another matter I would like to announce to everyone.”

There was whispering in the audience, and Su Nian stopped and listened carefully.

Deng Tonglian went up to the stage with a beaming smile, and Su Guotian continued, “My youngest daughter Su Yalan, on the Qixi Festival in August, will formally hold an engagement ceremony with Shen Family’s Third Young Master Shen Hanxiu. I hope everyone can show their support at that time.”

There was a burst of applause from below, searching for the figures of Su Yalan and Shen Hanxiu.

Su Yalan, following Liu Yuyuan, also went up on the stage, her face bashful as she stood beside her parents.

Meanwhile, Shen Hanxiu was holding Su Zhen and eating at the table.

The news had never reported Su Yalan and Shen Hanxiu appearing together at an event. After the adults from both families finished speaking, Deng Tonglian said: “Being in-laws with the Su Family has always been my wish, and with today’s good atmosphere, I’d also like my son to come up and say a few words.”

Su Yalan’s eyes had been on Shen Hanxiu all along, and the audience also turned their eyes to him.

Shen Hanxiu stood below the stage, expressionless, holding Su Zhen who was licking a lollipop.

He already knew that the Su Family’s special invitation wasn’t for a simple celebration, but how did they know he would surely comply with their wishes?

He glanced at Su Zhen with lowered eyes: “Uncle will take you up there to play.”

Su Zhen, licking her lollipop, followed Shen Hanxiu without a word.

Under the watchful eyes of the audience, they saw Shen Hanxiu leading a little girl up to the stage.

Once on the stage, he did not go to Su Yalan’s side, but took the microphone from the host, holding Su Zhen’s hand without letting go, looking down at the dark crowd, and quickly cast his gaze straight to Su Nian and her son at the edge of the crowd.

Their eyes met, and the first to look away was always Su Nian.

Her heart started beating erratically.

Everyone held their breath waiting for Shen Hanxiu to speak, and Su Zhen, carefree, tugged at Shen Hanxiu’s trouser leg, completely oblivious to the situation.

Su Yalan took a step towards Shen Hanxiu, but before she reached him, they heard his deep and pleasant voice from the speakers: “The one I’m going to marry, is someone else.”

There was a murmur from below, Su Nian looked up in shock, his gaze still on her, so passionate…

Su Yalan’s footsteps halted abruptly, everyone on the stage was stunned, only for Deng Tonglian to hastily step forward and snatch the microphone from Shen Hanxiu’s hand.

She whispered fiercely at him: “Do you know what you’re doing?”

Shen Hanxiu averted his gaze, responding coolly and indifferently to the bewildered crowd: “I’m very sober.” Then he looked back at Su Yalan and said to a few elders on the stage: “Let’s end this farce here. After all, today is Old Master Su’s birthday celebration, I don’t want to end this with everyone feeling embarrassed.”

Then he walked to Su Guotian with Su Zhen in tow: “Old Master Su, what do you think?”

Su Guotian was slightly stunned, very dissatisfied with Shen Hanxiu’s arrogance and disregard for others, but also helpless, watching him nonchalantly walk away from the mess, leading Su Zhen off the stage.

Su Yalan hastily followed: “Ah Shu!”

The host, regaining composure, stuttered uncertainly about how to smooth things over.

He chuckled twice and announced directly: “The birthday banquet officially starts now, I hope everyone enjoys themselves.”

Out of respect for the Su Family’s influence, no one dared to discuss the matter that was extremely embarrassing for the Su Family. They all turned around, pretending they hadn’t heard anything, only to talk about it privately in the corners.
