Chapter 296: Chapter 295: The Tragic Bravery of Cutting off One’s Own Arm

Jiang Xinxuan and Bai Wanting seemed to have accepted the facts, ready to head upstairs.

"I’m not done speaking yet."

Su Mu’s expression remained calm.

The previous statement was made because, as Su Mu approached, everyone had been looking at him with serious expressions.

Su Mu felt the atmosphere was a bit too oppressive, and it was just a joke.

Of course, Su Mu didn’t know that his joke had quite an impact on Xuanxuan’s heart.

Jiang Xinxuan had even taken things to the level of "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships."

Hearing Su Mu’s words, Allen’s eyes lit up, could there be a chance?

With the previous experience of Bai Wanting’s intervention, Allen didn’t dare to be the first to respond this time.

Allen was afraid he might say something inappropriate again, which would not sit well with his fiancée.

Bai Wanting and Jiang Xinxuan also didn’t speak, only turning to look at Su Mu.

Perhaps they truly held no hope in their hearts.

Adhering to the principle that less hope meant less disappointment, they both felt it was better not to harbor unrealistic expectations.

"Aren’t you all curious?"

Seeing that even Allen was silent, Su Mu was in no rush to speak.

Shouldn’t the most anxious people here be Allen and Bai Wanting, the leading male and female characters?

Why had they collectively fallen silent now?

"Mu, I, I’m very curious, it’s just that..."

Allan glanced at Bai Wanting and didn’t continue.

What Allen wanted to say was that he didn’t know if his words would be wrong again, or if he would make another cultural faux pas.

Allen was now somewhat traumatized.

Allen believed that his future father-in-law was right.

The culture in this country is profound; he really should study it well.

Just look at today’s simple situation for proof.

Allen knew he must have made some mistake, it’s just that he didn’t yet realize what it was.

Allen felt he should really ask his fiancée about it when he got back.

That way, he could avoid making the same mistake in the future, right?

If he made today’s mistake in front of his future father-in-law, Allen didn’t even want to think about what would await him.

One thing Allen could be sure of was that the look his future father-in-law gave him would surely become even more unsatisfied.

A smart man learns from his mistakes; Allen thought it best to speak less.

Bai Wanting had taught Allen a saying: The more you speak, the more mistakes you make.

Previously, Allen thought his fiancée was just trying to scare him.

But today, Allen had begun to vaguely understand that his fiancée’s words seemed to make a lot of sense.

"Just what? Do you still want that wedding dress or not?"

Su Mu found Allen’s hesitations quite uncharacteristic.

During Su Mu’s brief encounters with Allen, he had found Allen to be a very sunny, outgoing big boy.

Su Mu was actually quite unaccustomed to Allen’s current behavior.

He always felt it odd, as if a sunny and handsome foreign boy had suddenly turned into a housewife.

"Want it, of course I want it."

Upon hearing Su Mu mention the wedding dress, Allen instantly cast aside the earlier incident where Bai Wanting had stopped him from speaking.

"But, Mu, didn’t you say your mother disagreed with selling the wedding dress in the cabinet?"

After the excitement, Allen also realized the crux of the matter.

The first thing Su Mu said when he came back after hanging up the phone was that his mother disagreed with selling the wedding dress designed by Ms. Wang Weiwei.

Allen couldn’t quite grasp Su Mu’s intention.

Can he actually buy the wedding dress in the cabinet now or not?

Jiang Xinxuan and Bai Wanting were also taken aback by Su Mu’s words.

Jiang Xinxuan understood Su Mu and knew he wouldn’t say something meaningless.

If the wedding dress in the cabinet was definitely not going to be sold to his cousin, there was no need for Su Mu to say otherwise to Allen, right?

Yet, Jiang Xinxuan was a little confused now.

Just like Allen, Jiang Xinxuan felt an impulse to ask Su Mu.

Wasn’t it Su Mu himself who said Aunt Bai disagreed with selling the wedding dress in the cabinet?

So, what did Su Mu mean now?

Could it be that Su Mu wanted to decide on his own and sell the wedding dress in the cabinet to Allen?

Thinking of that possibility, Jiang Xinxuan became anxious all at once.

Glancing at Bai Wanting, Jiang Xinxuan could see a trace of worry in his cousin’s eyes as well.

It seemed like the two cousins had come to the same conclusion.

Both thought that Su Mu intended to go against Bai Xiuping’s wishes and sell the wedding dress to Allen privately.

Jiang Xinxuan knew that if such a thing happened, he wouldn’t just leave a bad impression on Su Mu’s mother.

He guessed that Su Mu’s mother would probably take an instant dislike to him.

"Su Mu, I think I’ll just choose another wedding dress."

He didn’t want his own affairs to affect the relationship between Xuanxuan and Su Mu.

Bai Wanting took the initiative to speak up, indicating that she had given up the idea of buying the wedding dress in the cabinet.

In Bai Wanting’s view, if Xuanxuan left a bad impression with Su Mu’s mother, it could also potentially disrupt their relationship.

The workers at the wedding dress shop revealed a mysterious smile upon hearing the Crown Prince’s first words after returning.

In their hearts, they felt that Director Bai’s outright rejection of the groom-to-be’s request was a snub to Miss Jiang.

Not giving Miss Jiang face meant that even though she was the Crown Prince’s girlfriend,

She had not yet received Director Bai’s approval, hadn’t she?

Thinking this, the staff felt a bit more balanced in their minds.

Otherwise, with her looks, family background, and even her boyfriend being the Crown Prince of their parent company,

They always thought Miss Jiang’s luck was just a little too good.

Now seeing Miss Jiang’s cousin, today’s bride-to-be, voluntarily proposing to select another dress,

The staff became even more certain of their speculation.

Miss Jiang must not have received Director Bai’s approval.

Otherwise, they would have given her face instead of outright rejecting her.

Holding a mentality of watching a good show, the staff didn’t immediately step forward to attend to them when Bai Wanting suggested choosing another wedding dress.

After all, their dereliction of duty was already a confirmed fact in the eyes of the Crown Prince, and there was no need for any defense.

The staff didn’t know what kind of ending awaited them.

So, the staff found it quite satisfying to watch a beautiful woman fall into an awkward situation.

Who made Miss Jiang so fortunate to have caught the Crown Prince’s favor?

"Are you sure you don’t want it anymore?"

Su Mu looked at Bai Wanting with amusement, always feeling that there was a kind of tragic heroism in her words.
