Chapter 1398 - I Only Want You (1/2)
Su Yan and Qiao An proceeded to have their wedding photos taken and their weddings bands and gowns purchased. The wedding was to be held a few days later.
They had invited all their closest friends and family.
Their university schoolmates were included in the guest list too.
Everyone was surprised to see that they had reconciled.
Needless to say, Su Yan’s ex-wife, Yao Lan, was in utter disbelief. She could not tolerate the idea of her daughter addressing Qiao An as her mother.
Not to mention, she used to mock and sneer at Qiao An when they ran into her occasionally before she divorced Su Yan.
Yet Qiao An is getting married to Su Yan now. How poor of a taste he’s got, she thought.
She was extremely disgruntled and upset.
Hence, she racked her brains to come up with a way to sneak inside the Su family mansion on the day of their wedding, despite it being a tall order.
Everyone was dumbfounded the moment they saw her, for they all knew that she was Su Yan’s ex-wife. Su Yan, too, was astonished to see her showing up in the midst of the toasting ceremony. He shot his bodyguards a glance to hint them to chase her away. However, Qiao An grabbed his arm and hinted him not to act rashly, for there were lots of guests present.
Smiling, Qiao An walked toward her and handed her a glass of liquor from the tray. “Welcome to our wedding. I hereby toast to you.”
Unsurprisingly, Yao Lan did not accept the toast and instead knocked the glass of liquor out of Qiao An’s hand.
Everyone stared at each other in shock and dismay. They were all waiting to see a show. However, Qiao An kept a straight face and said softly to her, “If you still want to see Nainai in the future, you’d better drink up.”
She then handed the glass to Yao Lan again before saying, “Here, Ms. Yao, hold it properly. Don’t drop it again.”
Glowering at her, Yao Lan accepted the toast.
Qiao An smiled and clinked glasses with her, greatly disappointing the guests who were waiting for drama to break out.
She then turned around and walked toward Su Yan, after which they resumed the toasting ceremony.
Yao Lan did not cause a stir because she missed her daughter dearly. Ever since they got a divorce, Su Yan had been forbidding her from meeting Su Nainai, and Qiao An’s words had struck a sour note within her.
She swallowed her pride and suppressed her anger.
However, she was not the most upset person that day.
The Qiao family and Qiao An’s ex-husband, Xi Changzhi, were the most disgruntled.
They could not believe that the ex-convict, Qiao An, managed to get a new lease on life and married her old flame, Su Yan. Not to mention, Su Yan was the eldest heir of the wealthy Su family.
However, they had no choice but to accept the truth since nothing could be changed.
Qiao An transferred her name back to the Qiao family register after she divorced Xi Changzhi. Yet, her family had never once shown their concern toward her at all. To their embarrassment, she did not even inform them of her marriage and, thus, they thought that she went extremely overboard!
That was not all.
When they realized that she had gotten her marriage registered without informing them, the elderly matriarch of the Qiao family questioned, “Since you’d need a household register to get married, how did she manage to do so when the household register is with us?”
“Could it be that they only held a banquet without registering their marriage?” said Qiao An’s father.
“It can’t be. The Su family has a high status, they wouldn’t allow that. Go find out if Qiao An’s name is still under our register. She might have just removed it sneakily!”
