However, she couldn’t let anyone know her thoughts, not even her mother-in-law who doted on her. Although Han Yuan was good to her, she would always love her son the most. If it was back in the day when polygamy was the norm, her mother-in-law would probably have Xi Cheng marry half the girls in the city and take them as his concubines, and would also remind

Lin Yu that—as a wife—she had to be tolerant.

When Lin Yu saw that Han Yuan was distressed by Gu Man’s tears, she informed her, “We had dinner with Shi Nian.”

“Why would a dinner result in tears?” Han Yuan asked before she finally realized. “Oh! Did Gu Man take a fancy to Shi Nian?”

Lin Yu lightly nodded. Han Yuan immediately chuckled, “Shi Nian is a good match! Our Manman has good taste.”

Gu Man cried even harder. Confused, Han Yu questioned Lin Yu, “What’s wrong? Don’t tell me Shi Nian doesn’t like our Manman?”

Lin Yu nodded again, and Gu Man wailed, “Godmother! He’s married! I can’t believe he married a run-of-the-mill woman!”

Lin Yu lowered her eyes. Yun Nan was far from ‘run-of-the-mill’ in terms of looks and career.

“He’s married?” Han Yuan repeated, surprised. “That’s impossible! The Shi family would have held a banquet for Shi Nian’s wedding if that was the case. Take Shi Ke for example; when he got married, his family threw a three-day banquet in celebration! I doubt the celebration of Shi Nian’s wedding would be any less than his brother’s! Besides, Shi Nian would’ve invited us to his wedding, so he can’t be married! Impossible!”

Both Lin Yu and Gu Man felt that her words made sense. “Maybe they’re still making wedding preparations. Perhaps they’ll inform us about their wedding soon?” Lin Yu stated hesitantly.

Gu Man, however, didn’t think so. Her eyes lit up, and she said, “There’s another possibility; the Shi family might not have acknowledged their marriage at all! Shi Nian’s elders probably didn’t like that woman! Hmph! She may have charmed Shi Nian, but it’s not that easy getting accepted into his family! ”

Lin Yu didn’t say anything. Shi Nian had been in charge of his family and its businesses for many years; everyone knew he had the final say in the Shi family.

Gu Man held Han Yuan’s hand and sweetly whined, “Godmother, why don’t we have a meal with Auntie Shi? Can you ask Auntie Shi for me, please?”

Han Yuan smiled. “It’s not a big deal; I’ll just ask her directly. I’ll tell her you’ve taken a fancy to Shi Nian and ask her if she wants to be in-laws!”

Gu Man panicked. “No! Don’t, Godmother! You can’t do that! That’ll be too embarrassing! ”

Han Yuan laughed and teased, “Seems like you really do like Shi Nian. Alright, alright! Godmother will help you invite your Auntie Shi! How does tomorrow sound?” Gu Man hugged Han Yuan in delight and acted coquettishly, making Han Yuan extremely happy.

Lin Yu smiled and left. She saw Xi Cheng holding a glass of red wine in the parlor on the second floor. Lin Yu frowned and chided, ‘Why are you drinking again? Didn’t you have enough to drink at dinner? I saw you consume a considerable amount of alcohol.”

Lin Yu reached out to take Xi Cheng’s wine glass away, but Xi Cheng transferred the wine glass to his other hand. He stood up, walked to the staircase railings, and downed the wine. “Do you find it interesting?” he casually inquired.

Lin Yu was startled. “What?”

Xi Cheng didn’t respond. He just stared at Han Yuan and Gu Man chatting intimately downstairs.

Lin Yu walked up to him and softly asked, “Are you talking about us? Or are you talking about Gu Man and Shi Nian?”

. Both,” Xi Cheng answered without looking away from the two downstairs—he didn’t look at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu pursed her lips and avoided the first question. She smiled and said, “Gu

Man likes Shi Nian and begged Auntie to help her mention it to Auntie Xu Yun.”

Xi Cheng frowned, looked at Lin Yu, and growled, “Haven’t you girls done enough already?! Now you want to use my mother to do something so shameless?”

Lin Yu paled, and she quickly denied, “It wasn’t me!”

“Hmph!” Xi Cheng snorted.

Lin Yu defended, “Auntie said the Shi family didn’t hold a wedding ceremony for Shi Nian. Gu Man thought it must be because Shi Nian’s girlfriend didn’t have his family’s approval. Gu Man felt she still had a chance, so she asked Auntie to talk to Auntie Shi and see if she could create opportunities for her and Shi Nian to spend more time together. Xi Cheng, Gu Man is Auntie’s goddaughter. It’s not my place to interfere.”

“Well, you sure kept your hands clean there!” Xi Cheng clearly didn’t buy it at all.

Lin Yu felt wronged. “Xi Cheng, do you really think that badly of me? I’m your fiancée. Everything I do is from the perspective of your wife. Those two are my mother-in-law and her goddaughter; there’s only so much I can do and say from my standpoint. There’s nothing else I could do!”

Xi Cheng was used to Lin Yu’s prevarications and blame-shifting. Normally, he would turn around and leave without saying a word, but today, he couldn’t take

it anymore..
