Chapter 1598: Chapter 1613: Aftereffects

He no longer had those feelings he had for Xie Yuting during his younger days, but he felt her marriage to Chen Sheng had been unfair to her. Now knowing she was divorced, he hoped she would find a better future partner, but that partner would certainly not be him.

On the other side, Xiao Xiao walked straight into the crowd.

A lot of people had already arrived. Even though Mu Wanxin was absent due to health reasons, she sent several young secretaries with good drink tolerance from the Mu Family to be An Ran’s bridesmaids for the occasion tomorrow.

Also present were Lin Ruonan, Wang Xiaoyi, and several high-society ladies close to the Shen and Mu Families.

After arriving, Xiao Xiao was pulled by Lin Ruonan, who introduced everyone one by one before Xiao Xiao finally got a chance to speak with Wang Xiaoyi, who had greeted her earlier, "Xiaoyi, when did you arrive?"

"I got here in the morning, thought you’d be ahead of me, but turns out you arrived last." At this point, Wang Xiaoyi suddenly paused, looked at Xiao Xiao, and exclaimed, "Oh my, Xiao Xiao, you..."

Before she finished, Wang Xiaoyi suddenly covered her mouth.

She always thought Xiao Xiao didn’t have a boyfriend. Initially, she didn’t think in that direction, but suddenly remembered this was the Imperial City, and Xiao Xiao was with Young Master Lin.

However, her words were already halfway out, and though left incomplete, her exclamation had already drawn everyone’s attention to Xiao Xiao.

An Ran was even more exaggerated, like discovering a new continent, her eyes sparkling as she looked at her.

Lin Ruonan, fearing Xiao Xiao might feel embarrassed, quickly pulled her little hand over to rescue her, "Xiao Xiao, I suddenly feel like eating some salted plums. Could you help me get them from Brother’s car?"

Xiao Xiao was bewildered by their surprise, blinking blankly, not understanding what they meant.

Hearing Lin Ruonan’s words, she nodded, "Sure, I’ll go get them, Ruonan, you wait a bit."

Saying so, she first looked behind An Ran, where there was a large makeup mirror.

Just one glance made her want to hide away.

"Ruonan, how about I call Lin Junyang and ask him to bring it to you," knowing now where her issue was, Xiao Xiao felt too embarrassed to approach those men.

Being laughed at by these women was one thing, but those guys, every one of them as sharp as a tack, if they saw her like this, she really couldn’t bear to stay here any longer.

Lin Ruonan originally just used this as an excuse, seeing the little girl’s cluelessness.

No wonder, she knew her brother’s temperament all too well, straightforward like her own. Now that he had acknowledged his feelings for Xiao Xiao, and at this age...

Lin Ruonan did not make things difficult for her, "No need, I’ll just head over myself. I have something to discuss with them anyway."

Xiao Xiao apologized as she watched Lin Ruonan head towards the men. She was four months pregnant, yet thanks to her good health, didn’t look clumsy at all, merely a bit more voluptuous.

Looking past her, Xiao Xiao immediately spotted that man chatting and laughing, not knowing what he said to Young Master Sun, squinting his peach blossom eyes.

Xiao Xiao now wished she could run over and bite him to death. It was all his fault for embarrassing her, and she could already imagine An Ran teasing her about this for a year.

Lin Junyang suddenly sensed a gaze and saw a little woman glaring at him from afar with her eyes, as if he had done something unbearably wrong. When their eyes met, she even rolled her eyes at him.

Hmm, very cute.
