The Indifferent Young Master's Flash Marriage

Chapter 117: An Unexpected Guest

The atmosphere was warmer and warmer. Su Yurou and Gu Zihang looked at each other and smiled. Both of them walked side by side along the red carpet towards the stage.

The guests saw how matching they were and couldn’t help cheering and marveling at the appearance of the couple.

Su Wan stood silently at a secluded corner. She heard how a girl admired the couple from the side.

“Mr. Gu is so handsome and Miss Su is so pretty! I heard they were high schoolmates and have been together since then. I really envy their relationship!”

“They seem to look perfect on the surface but I heard that she wasn’t Mr. Gu’s previous girlfriend...”

Su Wan was slightly taken aback. When she saw Gu Zihang and Su Yurou walking through the floral arch, she was in a trance.

Many years ago, Su Wan had imagined Gu Zihang holding her hand walking abreast down the aisle of the church under the blessings and well wishes of others.

This scene had overlapped with her imagination many years ago. Gu Zihang was still tall and handsome but the person whose arm was linked with his was now her cousin sister...

If it was not because he had dated two girls simultaneously and deliberately planned to seize the assets her parents left for her, Su Wan could probably send them her well wishes and blessings smilingly.

However, the truth was cruel. She had been stabbed in the back by her family and her lover at the same time. That pain was so intense she could not breathe.

Luckily, her wounds were patching up. Today, she could end this pain.

The emcee passed the microphone to Gu Zihang and Gu Zihang held Su Yurou’s hand affectionately with a smile in his eyes.

“Thank you everyone for attending my engagement party. Yurou is the purest and kindest girl I’ve ever met. I’ll treat her well for the rest of my life!”

Su Yurou showed a sweet and bashful smile. She tiptoed to kiss Gu Zihang. Gu Zihang put his hand on Su Yurou’s back and hugged her passionately.

When both of them kissed till they couldn’t part, the guests whistled and their applause went on and on.

That moment, Gu Zihang’s mother, Du Huimin, and Su Yurou’s father, Su Jiankai, walked up to the stage together.

Both of them stood beside Gu Zihang and Su Yurou and waved to the guests. Everyone turned silent instantly.

Du Huimin nodded and there was a smile in her eyes.

“Today isn’t only an important day for Zihang and Yurou but is also a moment of unity for Gu Group and Sheng Yuan Group. Together with Sheng Yuan Group’s CEO, Mr. Su Jiankai, we have an important announcement to make!”

The guests started whispering when they heard this. Gu Zihang and Su Yurou’s marriage had the nature of a commercial marriage.

With Du Huimin’s statement, were Gu Group and Sheng Yuan Group going to merge?

However, although Gu Group was larger than Sheng Yuan Group, Sheng Yuan Group’s influence in the market could not be underestimated. Even if Su Jiankai’s daughter was getting married, he couldn’t be giving away his family business just like that, could he?

Su Wan trembled when she heard the comments of several guests beside her. No matter how hard she tried to keep calm, her face was still pale. She had guessed what they wanted to announce.

Back at Aloes Tea House, Su Yurou had told her that her grandfather had agreed to transfer her shares to the Gu family.

Su Wan knew this but had not expected her uncle’s family to be so shameless as to transfer her shares during Su Yurou’s engagement party!

Why would Su Jiankai, an uncle, feel hurt when the shares they were regifting were Su Wan’s and not Su Yurou’s?

Did they firmly believe that she had no opportunity to revolt?

Su Wan pursed her lips tightly and suppressed the cold laughter in her which was about to explode.

Su Jiankai, who was standing on the stage, was beaming. He took the microphone and announced solemnly, “On behalf of Sheng Yuan Group, it’s my pleasure to announce that we have decided to transfer twenty-five percent of Sheng Yuan’s shares to my son-in-law, Gu Zihang!”

The audience went into an uproar following the announcement.

Twenty-five percent of Shen Yuan Group’s shares was extremely valuable!

Those who envied Su Yurou marrying a rich man realized that this deal was not worthwhile because the dowry from the Su family was too much!

“Mr. Su is too generous!”

“That’s right. It’s worthwhile for the Gu family to have this daughter-in-law. It’s much better than involvement in any business!”

Just when everyone was feeling how rich the Su family was, a female voice was heard.

“Uncle, may I know whose shares you’ve given to the Gu family?”

Everyone looked at the direction of the girl who spoke. They saw a beautiful and slim girl walking firmly toward the stage.

A few people who had attended Beitong’s charity dinner several days ago recognized this young lady at one glance.

She was the mysterious second young missy of the Su family, Su Wan.

When Su Yurou saw Su Wan, she held Gu Zihang’s hand tightly. She tilted her head up arrogantly and was the first to speak.

“Wan, Sheng Yuan Group’s shares are under the care of my father and grandfather. Are you doubting your uncle and grandfather by asking this question in public? You are unfilial!”

Huh, unfilial. It was such a huge accusation!

They were ruthless towards her. Did she still need to treat them as family?

Su Wan shot a glance at Su Yurou and with obvious disdane in her tone, she said, “I’m asking your father. What right do you have to interrupt?”

Su Yurou couldn’t help but tremble. Today was her engagement party, what right did Su Wan have to be so arrogant?

“You!”

Su Yurou’s look turned grim. She angrily walked forward and was about to slap Su Wan, but Gu Zihang tugged her sleeves and asked her to note the situation she was in.

To the Gu family and the Su family, the most important thing now was reason. Now that they had more people on their side, did they have to fear Su Wan, a weak girl?

If she were to slap Su Wan, it would give rise to much discussion in the newspaper tomorrow.

Su Yurou sensed her loss of composure. She quickly switched to a gentle look. She pouted and looked at her father. Su Jiankai stood out.

Su Jiankai darted a side glance at Su Wan. “Today is Zihang and your cousin sister’s big day. Wan, are you here to cause trouble?”

Su Wan straightened her back and fixed her eyes on Su Jiankai. Su Jiankai felt cold being stared at by her.

“I just want to know whose shares you’ve given out. Coincidently, I have twenty-five percent of shares in Sheng Yuan Group too.”

Su Jiankai frowned and his expression was cold. “Nonsense! How could you have so much shares in Sheng Yuan?”

Just as Su Jiankai and Su Wan were arguing, the door of the hall was pushed open and the sound of the door opening broke the tension that instant.

“Who says she doesn’t?”

The magnetic voice of a man filled the air.

That faint and cold voice entered everyone’s ears, just like sandpaper rubbing one’s heart, covering the noise all of a sudden.
