Chapter 138: They Are Getting Married
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In Qin Zhen’s mind, the words he had spoken to Shen Qingyue continued to linger, and Wei Jiu’er’s chatter had turned into background noise. But he still remembered one thing… He suddenly turned to Wei Jiu’er and asked, “Do you want to marry me?”
This question caught Wei Jiu’er off guard, and she paused for a moment before nodding hastily. “You know, this has always been my wish. I will never want to marry anyone else in my lifetime. I only want to marry you.”
It seemed like Qin Zhen had made some significant decision. “Tomorrow, invite your family over…”
Wei Jiu’er’s heart skipped a beat, finding it hard to believe. “Are you saying…”
“I want to discuss our marriage with them.” Since Shen Qingyue had shown no interest in him, there was no need for him to dwell on that woman any longer. Choosing Wei Jiu’er had been his plan for a long time. Once they were married, he was determined to be a good husband. Moreover, it was a responsibility he should have fulfilled a long time ago.
In a matter of days, the news of Qin Zhen and Wei Jiu’er’s wedding set to take place in a month spread like wildfire. It caused a sensation not only in the entertainment industry but also online.
Shen Qingyue, as Qin Zhen’s ex-wife, once again became the center of attention. Many fans even sent her private messages, urging her to immediately marry someone else, preferably handsome, and beat Qin Zhen to it just to save face.
Shen Qingyue simply shrugged off these comments. She did not care about any of this. She had to focus on her real estate development project.
Tang Fangmo also heard about her securing a major project and insisted on throwing a celebration for her. In reality, it was just an excuse to cheer her up, as he was worried about her.
Shen Qingyue initially wanted to decline but, when Chen Ying learned that
Chen Song was not among the invited guests for the celebration, she persuaded Shen Qingyue to come along. Lately, in an effort to avoid Chen Song, Chen Ying had been staying at Shen Qingyue’s place, keeping a low profile, almost becoming a recluse. Shen Qingyue had no choice but to agree to go out together.
It was called a celebration banquet, but Tang Fangmo did not actually invite many people. It was mostly a few close acquaintances.
Chen Ying, who hadn’t interacted with outsiders for a long time, immediately began gossiping with a few socialites as soon as she entered the room. She learned that Qin Zhen and Wei Jiu’er were getting married, and she started complaining and gossiping right away. She had been holding it in for days and was finally able to talk to someone, so she had a lot to say, no matter what the topic.
Shen Qingyue sat beside Tang Fangmo and asked, “You’ve been back in the country for a while now, why haven’t you started working yet? This doesn’t seem like your usual busy self.”
Tang Fangmo sent a message to Chen Song and then put away his phone. “My contract with my previous company has expired, and my current plan is to sign with Chen Song’s company. The transition work hasn’t been completed yet, so I have to wait…”
Shen Qingyue asked, “Have you heard about the movie ‘He Came from the Darkness’ that Director Zhang Yi is preparing? The theme of his new work is the growth of young people and school bullying, which is very topical. I think you could even win another Best Actor award for it.” She remembered that in her previous life, this movie had a huge box office success, raking in 30 billion, but the only downside was that the male lead got into legal trouble a few years later, leading to the movie being taken down. Although the movie had already been released, it was still such as shame…
Tang Fangmo replied, “Chen Song also mentioned this film to me, but Director Zhang Yi has mainly made arthouse films in the past, and the reception hasn’t been very good. I’m still considering it…”
After chatting for a while, Shen Qingyue still hoped that Tang Fangmo would audition for the role. At the very least, Tang Fangmo wouldn’t lead to the movie being taken down.
When the gathering ended, she planned to call Chen Ying to take her home, only to realize that Chen Ying was already heavily intoxicated. Shen Qingyue sighed, bent down, and shook Chen Ying’s shoulder, trying to wake her up. However, the person on the sofa showed no response at all. She had really gone all out with the drinking tonight.
At that moment, a figure appeared behind her, lifted one of Chen Ying’s arms, and pulled her into a sitting position with ease. Shen Qingyue turned around in surprise and said, “Brother Chen Song, how did you get here?”
“Fangmo told me that Ying Ying was here,” Chen Song said with his usual gentle demeanor. “Thank you for taking care of Ying Ying during these past few days. I’ll take her home now.”
Shen Qingyue thought about stopping him but decided against it. This was their business, and Chen Ying had been avoiding it for a long time. She can’t avoid it forever.
After Chen Ying was taken away by Chen Song, Shen Qingyue tidied up and prepared to leave. However, as she passed by a private room, she heard people inside seeming to argue about something….
