Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qiao Lian stared at Xia Yehua’s figure and sighed deeply.
Both Xia Yehua and Shen Liangchuan were proud people.
If no one from that side of the Shen family had sent an invitation, the other side of the family wouldn’t ask as well.
But…
Things were so busy in the Shen household that, if Mei Feng deleted Xia Yehua off the guest list, how would a careless person like Shen Zihao know about it?
In addition, as Xia Nuannuan was the female spouse, it was even less likely that she would have paid attention to the people on the guest list.
But if no one voiced this matter, they would end up as the losing party for sure!
After everything was over, Mei Feng would probably dismiss the whole matter with a simple apology, giving the excuse that she had been careless.
Qiao Lian frowned.
What could they do now?
Well, if Xia Yehua and Shen Liangchuan had too much pride to do this themselves, she didn’t!
Quietly, Qiao Lian picked up her cell phone and went upstairs. She thought for a moment and then dialed Xia Nuannuan’s number.
Xia Nuannuan was having a fitting. The stylist had to design a few hairstyles for her to select, to complete her bridal look for tomorrow.
For this, Mom Xia, Mei Feng and Shen Zihao were all present.
When she picked up the phone call, the hairstylist was working on Xia Nuanuan’s hair.
Qiao Lian started, “Nuannuan, is it a good moment to speak now?”
Xia Nuannuan glanced at the others and said softly, “Yes, it is.”
“Ermmm… it’s like this… Why didn’t Mom get an invitation to the wedding?”
Xia Nuannuan’s eyes flashed and, immediately, she knew what Qiao Lian was hinting at. She answered, “I understand.”
Then she hung up and acted as though nothing had happened. After the stylist had coiled her locks, she stood up.
She lowered her gaze shyly, her fair skin looked flawless.
The white gown complemented and brought out her innate temperament, making her look like an angel. She was a dazzling sight.
Her make-up wasn’t too strong. It only took a small dab of scarlet lipstick to bring out the beauty in her features.
Xia Nuannuan had a personality that was gentle and soft, like water. She was a pretty girl, but she had never been particularly eye-catching. But right now, she looked like the star of the universe and her every movement was incredibly captivating.
At least, Shen Zihao was dazzled into a stupor.
In the past, he had thought that she was pretty, but he had never thought she could look this beautiful.
Mom Xia laughed heartily as she took a step forward, saying, “Our Nuannuan looks really pretty!”
As she said this, her eyes reddened.
Xia Nuannuan smiled shyly.
Mei Feng watched from the side and couldn’t help but add with jealousy, “The stylist is really skilled!”
Xia Nuannuan did not bother to read too much between the lines, but looked at Shen Zihao and said, “Your mom has always said that, with the shape of my face, I’d look good with my hair coiled up. At first I didn’t believe her and felt that letting out my hair would look good, but indeed, she’s right, this looks better. I’m sure she’ll laugh at me when she sees me tomorrow.”
When she said these words, she noticed that Mei Feng had started to look uncomfortable.
Shen Zihao’s heart sank when he heard her mention Xia Yehua.
But as he studied her hairstyle, he also felt that it looked better coiled up the way it was now.
He nodded, “Mom has always had good taste.”
When he was little, his mom had been the prettiest among all the other mothers.
When she was at the parents’ meetings, she always managed to catch everyone’s attention.
After all the parents left, all of his cla.s.smates would surround him and praise his pretty mother.
Now, he suddenly felt a little lost.
