Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Whoever is good to you, I will be good to them too

"Is this Jinzhi?" the aunt said with a smiling face.

Xu Jinzhi just smiled, and then listened as Xie Yanchuan introduced all the elders present, calling each by name.

The last few elders started talking to Xu Jinzhi, their warm demeanor as if they had known her all along.

Xie Yanchuan still stood quietly to the side until the aunt sighed, "Yanchuan has been so worry-free from childhood to adulthood, but then there’s Lin Chuan..."

The aunt didn’t finish her sentence, but her disappointment was more than evident.

Xie Yanchuan glanced at the aunt indifferently, as if it meant nothing special.

The younger auntie then said, "Why bring up these matters now? After all, everything has already been settled. There’s no need to keep rehashing it."

The aunt wanted to argue when she heard this, but the rebuttal got stuck in her throat and couldn’t come out, especially with He Shuying’s unpleasant expression.

Indeed, He Shuying was very dissatisfied with the situation between Xie Linchuan and Liang Shiyu, but these relatives kept bringing it up, time and again, seemingly comforting, but who didn’t know they had ulterior motives?

Especially now, He Shuying and these relatives had known each other for decades. They’d never been so fond of Xie Yanchuan before, and now here they were, chattering on and on.

Could He Shuying be happy?

"Aunt, you all continue chatting, I’m going to the restroom. I’ll take my leave first," said Xu Jinzhi.

He Shuying nodded, "Go ahead."

So Xu Jinzhi left with Xie Yanchuan. Watching their departing figures, the aunt couldn’t help but say, "Had I known, I would have let my Jiating have a try."

The younger aunt rolled her eyes. "Sister-in-law, did your brain get squeezed by a door?"

"What do you mean by that?" the aunt asked, glaring at her with anger.

The younger aunt replied, "Could your Jiating compare with Yanchuan? You’ve got some nerve!"

"How dare I not? Our Jiating is such a good child! I think you’re just jealous! You too wish for such a marriage, but you can’t even have a son!" the aunt retorted with full vigor.

At that moment, their conversations finally dropped all pretense. Earlier on, in front of the younger generation, they had all been pretending, but now they were bickering as if they were market aunties squabbling.

Elsewhere, Xu Jinzhi didn’t actually go to the restroom. After walking a distance, Xie Yanchuan said calmly, "Auntie is someone who doesn’t show up without a profit motive. If she asks you for anything in the future, just refuse."

Xu Jinzhi turned to look at Xie Yanchuan, "Are you angry?"

Xie Yanchuan shook his head, "No."

Xu Jinzhi kept looking at Xie Yanchuan, as if trying to determine whether he was truly not angry, and Xie Yanchuan smiled somewhat helplessly, prompting a smile from Xu Jinzhi as well.

"It’s not worth getting angry about. I just don’t want them to bother you," Xie Yanchuan explained.

He had never cared about their previous neglect, and he was not happy now just because they had spoken a few more words to him.

He was just worried they would bother Xu Jinzhi.

Suddenly, Xu Jinzhi took Xie Yanchuan’s arm and said with a radiant smile, "Xie Yanchuan, whoever is good to you, I will be good to them."

A sentence that one would expect to hear from a three-year-old in kindergarten was now said by Xu Jinzhi, so seriously.

Xie Yanchuan just looked at Xu Jinzhi, his heart struck by a feeling, a tingling sensation that spread from his heart, and then he felt somewhat dazed.

Seeing Xie Yanchuan’s astonished expression, Xu Jinzhi was very satisfied; she was just this protective.

Because Liang Shiyu had arrived at the hotel earlier, and the bridal pickup was also taking place inside the hotel, so it would happen a bit later.

By the time they went to pick up the bride, Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan also went together, but they stood towards the back.

Looking at the lively scene in front, Xu Jinzhi held Xie Yanchuan’s hand, "Next month at our wedding, you had better be prepared, Youyou won’t let you off easily."

Xie Yanchuan, who had been watching everything with an undisturbed heart, suddenly felt a bit nervous upon hearing Xu Jinzhi’s words.

"I will prepare well," Xie Yanchuan said.

Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but smile a little, "Don’t be nervous, if all else fails, I’ll knock Youyou out and elope with you myself."

"No, no need, I can do it," Xie Yanchuan said, his ears turning slightly red.

"Second Brother, don’t be scared, I’ll be there when the time comes, and I’ll make sure you can marry your bride!" Xie Xingchuan suddenly spoke up from one side.

Xu Jinzhi and Xie Yanchuan both turned their heads to look over and saw Xie Xingchuan grinning at them.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t know what to say, but Xu Jinzhi instead asked, "Why aren’t you going up to help?"

Xie Xingchuan shook his head firmly, "Forget it."

Xu Jinzhi raised her eyebrows slightly; of course, she knew that her brother-in-law really disliked Liang Shiyu.

After all, Liang Shiyu had caused He Shuying to still be angry to this day.

Xie Xingchuan was not a mama’s boy, but undeniably, he had the closest mother-son relationship with He Shuying; how could Xie Xingchuan possibly like someone who constantly upset his mother?

But this was just the beginning; in the future, Xie Xingchuan would grow to dislike Liang Shiyu even more.

The proceedings went smoothly on this end, and Xie Linchuan successfully carried Liang Shiyu out of the room, with a crowd escorting them downstairs.

The wedding ceremony would still need a little more time, so for now, Liang Shiyu was taken to a rest room prepared downstairs in advance.

Only Liang Shiyu and her two bridesmaids were left in the rest room.

One of these bridesmaids was Liang Shiyu’s cousin Liang Shiqi, and the other was Lin Chu, Liang Shiyu’s good friend from the entertainment industry.

"Shiyu, I just saw that sister-in-law you mentioned earlier," Lin Chu said.

Liang Shiyu didn’t know what Lin Chu meant by that; she simply responded faintly, and her smile also faded a bit.

"She seems quite proud," Lin Chu said, nodding while agreeing with the complaints Liang Shiyu had previously shared with her.

"Really? I didn’t notice," Liang Shiqi said, looking at them both with a confused and puzzled face.

Liang Shiyu glanced at her cousin, a hint of impatience flashing in her eyes.

Actually, from the start, she hadn’t wanted her cousin to be a bridesmaid, but her family insisted, and the Xie Family was also not happy with her inviting so many from the entertainment circle.

Because of the wedding, she had argued with Xie Linchuan several times.

Sometimes, Liang Shiyu wondered whether it was all worth it.

Lin Chu didn’t pay attention to Liang Shiqi either and continued, "No worries, now that you are marrying Xie Linchuan, no matter what, you are her elder sister-in-law, and she has to respect you."

"Of course, she wouldn’t dare treat me any differently," Liang Shiyu said in a low voice.
