Chapter 1320: The Wedding (15)

Shen Liangchuan and Lu Nanze were both extremely stubborn people. If this matter didn’t get sorted out, they wouldn’t be able to get on with the wedding.

Qiao Lian frowned and, as she was still trying to think of an out, Shen Liangchuan sighed deeply.

She immediately understood that he was about to compromise.

After all, this was their wedding.

But she didn’t like that the man she loved had to compromise.

Hence before Shen Liangchuan could say anything, she looked at Lu Nanze and said, “Fine, I will accept these shares.”

Lu Nanze’s eyes lit up. However the next moment, Qiao Lian turned and signaled Qiao Yi.

Qiao Yi walked towards her. Then she held out the doc.u.ment to Qiao Yi and turned to Lu Nanze, saying, “We, the Qiao family, accept this act of apology. The head of the Qiao family is Qiao Yi, not me. These shares belong to Qiao Yi.”

Qiao Yi was stunned upon hearing these words and he immediately spoke, “Sis…”

But in that same moment, he suddenly understood. Given this particular situation, he had no choice but to accept it.

He lowered his head and looked at the amount written on the check, casting his gaze down.

In the past, before his legs had recovered, he had depended on his elder sister to earn a living for the two of them.

Now that his legs had recovered, he had in the first instance given his sister 500 000 as a wedding gift, but now in turn she gave him a few hundred million.

A sister like this… How could he possibly fail her?

He took the check in his hand and looked up, saying, “Fine, I will accept this check.”

Having said this, Qiao Yi pocketed the check.

At the same time, he told himself…

Giving his sister happiness was not just about ensuring she had money.

His gaze fell on the empty seat on the front row.

Senior Master Shen had not come to the wedding. It was a clear signal to everyone that he didn’t like this commoner as his granddaughter-in-law.

But… that was alright.

Qiao Yi cast his gaze down.

From now on, he would be his sister’s support. He was determined to work hard, so that his sister would become a woman with a good family background.

There was a flash of determination and far-sighted wisdom in his eyes as he stood there, looking at the person before him.

No one would have guessed that this young man in his twenties would one day achieve such a huge accomplishment, that he would build a business empire and become a legend in the industry.

When the reporters would interview him and ask him what had inspired him, his answer would be: to protect someone he loved dearly.

Later on, Senior Master Shen would live with one regret for the rest of his life. He would often tell Qiao Yi that the one thing in his life that he regretted the most was not that he had had a hopeless son, and it was not that he had done nothing when Shen Liangchuan and his mother had been kicked out of the Shen Family, but that he hadn’t attended Shen Liangchuan’s wedding. He had missed an important moment for his excellent granddaughter-in-law.

Of course, these are stories that would come much later.

Right now, Qiao Lian’s remark made Lu Nanze’s expression change immediately.

But Qiao Lian did not look at him again. Instead, she had turned to Shen Liangchuan and asked, “Is the wedding ceremony about to start?”

Shen Liangchuan nodded.

She did not speak further. She turned and headed back into her lounge.

Lu Nanze stood on the spot as he stared at her figue. Then his lips turned upwards into a self-mocking smile.

It was only after Qiao Lian had walked into her lounge that he took in a deep breath.

Shen Liangchuan, on the other hand, lowered his gaze as he invited the man, “Mr. Lu, please take your seat.”

Everyone who had turned up was a guest, of course he was polite with them.

Lu Nanze frowned as he nodded. At this same time, a quiet, shy voice sounded behind Lu Nanze, “Hub- hubby.”
