Chapter 1088: Chapter 1087: 1087: Bringing the Bride Home

Jian Dan and her group had just left the bridal shop when they saw Chu Liyuan.

“Uncle, how come you’re here?”

“Why call Li Jing and not me?”

“Such a small matter, why would uncle need to personally intervene?”

“There’s no such thing as a small matter with your affairs!” Chu Liyuan said with an extremely serious tone, “From now on, you must tell me everything! Do you hear me?” He lightly flicked Jian Dan’s forehead.

“Got it!”

“Mr. Chu, do you have to start flaunting your affection as soon as you appear?” Sizhe complained.

“Mind your own business!”

“I can’t control it, but can’t I even complain a bit when I’m affected?”

“No, you can’t!”

“You’re still so stubborn. Only Jian Dan can handle you!”

“It goes both ways!” Chu Liyuan said while giving Yuanyuan a meaningful look with his eyes.

“I would never act like you!” Sizhe retorted stubbornly.

“Alright then! I will be waiting to see how tough you can be in the future!” Chu Liyuan said with a relaxed expression.

As someone with experience in this area, he was quite confident.

Sizhe was immediately at a loss for words, fearing he might be slapped in the face later on.

“Mr. Chu? What brings you here?” a well-dressed woman approached Chu Liyuan and asked.

This woman appeared to be nearly forty years old, her hair was meticulously combed without a hair out of place, and she was wearing a crisp women’s suit. Her capable aura was evident, clearly showing that she must be a powerful woman.

Sizhe knew this woman: the general manager of this shopping center, a high-ranking figure within Shang Sizhe, and her affection for Chu Liyuan was no secret. Although they didn’t get to see each other often, her proud and haughty nature never entertained the thought of giving up, resulting in her still being single.

“I’m here to pick up my wife!” Chu Liyuan said coldly, without even glancing at her.

“Miss Ruan, how do you have time to come here?” Sizhe interjected from the side.

Only then did Ruan Qin notice Sizhe standing next to her. “Young Master Sizhe, you’re also here?” It wasn’t out of the ordinary for her to overlook Sizhe in front of Chu Liyuan.

“Yeah! Just noticed?”

“No, I just happened to come down for inspection and saw Mr. Chu, so I came over to say hello!” In truth, someone had informed her, and that’s why she had come.

“Really? What a coincidence?” Sizhe said sarcastically.

Jian Dan was no fool; how could she fail to see that this woman had designs on her uncle?

“Uncle, I’m hungry. Can we go eat something?” Jian Dan wrapped her arms around Chu Liyuan’s arm and cooed.

A slight smile played on Chu Liyuan’s lips, knowing that Jian Jian was about to start her performance.

“Sure! What do you feel like eating?” He asked while lightly running his finger down Jian Dan’s nose.

Joining Jian Jian in her act was his favorite pastime.

“Uncle gets to decide!

As long as uncle is with me, I’ll be happy eating anything!”

“I know of a new restaurant nearby that’s quite good, want to give it a try?”

“Yes please!”

“Am I included in this outing as well?” Sizhe chimed in from the side.

He hadn’t eaten all day and was indeed getting a bit peckish.

“Yes!” Before Chu Liyuan could respond, Jian Dan had already spoken up.

“Appreciate it! Let’s not delay then; let’s get going!” Sizhe said with a smile as he took Yuanyuan’s hand.

“Since everyone who hears is included, does that mean I can also come?” She wasn’t going to miss this rare opportunity to see Chu Liyuan. How could she let this chance slip by?

Yuanyuan frowned upon hearing Ruan Qin’s words—she had never encountered a woman with such thick skin.

Just as she was about to speak, Jian Dan beat her to it, “Of course~ you can, let’s all go together!” Jian Dan’s unexpected response puzzled Yuanyuan.@@novelbin@@

On the way there, Yuanyuan leaned in and whispered to Jian Dan, “Jian, what’s with you? You can’t be oblivious to this woman’s intentions toward your uncle, can you?”

“Of course I can see it, but what does it matter? Uncle isn’t interested in her, and since she wants to be tormented so badly, I’ll gladly oblige and give her a good lesson today so she won’t dare aim for uncle again.”

The corners of Jian Dan’s mouth lifted into a mischievous smile…
