After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 285

Gu Yan Sheng forced himself to shift his gaze away.

Compared to Di Xinyao,

An Nuan was worth nothing.

He didn't need to feel regret.

And he would never have any lingering attachment to An Nuan.

When the day comes that he truly marries Di Xinyao, An Nuan will know just how little he thinks of her.

In the banquet hall,

The crowd grew larger and larger.

An Nuan kept greeting the guests coming and going.

It's been a while.

An Yanyuan returned to An Nuan's side with Ye Jinghuai and accompanied her in greeting the guests.

Ye Jinghuai whispered in An Nuan's ear.

He wanted to go to the backyard to smoke.

But because of his affectionate gesture, it appeared as if they were deeply in love.

Ye Jinghuai walked out to the backyard.

He paused for a moment.

Qin Jiang followed him.

Seeing the scene before her, she also paused.

"Nan Chen, Xia Qiqi really doesn't like you," Gu YanXuan said, somewhat agitated.

It had been so long,

And she still couldn't accept the fact that he was marrying Xia Qiqi.

Knowing that she couldn't have any influence on Xiao Nanchen, she still went to find him right after her conversation with Nie Ziming.

She found him alone in the backyard, sitting in a wheelchair, looking distinctively lonely.

Since he was so lonely, why didn't he let her accompany him?

Even if he was disabled, so what?!

She wouldn't mind.

She, too, could love him for a lifetime.

"Even if Xia Qiqi doesn't like me, I won't like you. Don't waste your time and youth on me. It's not worth it," Xiao Nanchen advised.

Although his voice was soft,

There was still a hint of impatience in his tone.

He was always impatient with her.

But he always showed unconditional patience towards Xia Qiqi.

She truly didn't understand.

Why did Xiao Nanchen like Xia Qiqi so much?

She really didn't know what made Xia Qiqi better than her?!

Was it just because of her figure?

Was she so captivating to Xiao Nanchen?!

"Everything is worth it for you," Gu YanXuan said with a hint of despair.

Every time Xiao Nanchen rejected her, she felt deeply distressed.

"Even if I stay single and wait for you my whole life, I am worth it! There will come a day when you and Xia Qiqi will break up, there will come a day when Xia Qiqi can't stand being with you anymore, there will come a day when Xia Qiqi will abandon you! I'll wait for that day! I'll wait even until death!" Gu YanXuan said firmly.

So resolute and deeply affectionate.

If it were someone else, they would be moved a thousand times.

Xiao Nanchen was also somewhat moved.

But he wouldn't waver.

After all,

If there's no love, there's no love.

Either be alone for a lifetime, or... be with the person he loves the most.

That's his principle.

Xia Qiqi couldn't change it, his principle.

Gu YanXuan's declaration and confession received no response.

Her eyes were filled with redness.

She said, "Xiao Nanchen, I will never give up!"

Leaving behind those words,

With teary eyes, she departed.

Perhaps,

She couldn't accept Xiao Nanchen's indifference towards her.

No matter what she did,

He wouldn't have any emotional fluctuations.

But just a glance from Xia Qiqi was enough to make him give up everything.

Gu YanXuan left Ye Jinghuai and Qin Jiang's side.

Clearly, she was deeply hurt.

Qin Jiang couldn't help but tease, "If Gu YanXuan wasn't Gu Yan Sheng's sister, if she wasn't part of the Gu family, I might have suggested that you choose Gu YanXuan."

After all, Gu YanXuan was the true love of Xiao Nanchen.

Unlike Xia Qiqi, who was carefree and thoughtless.

Xiao Nanchen didn't respond to Qin Jiang.

At this moment, Qin Jiang followed Ye Jinghuai and walked towards Xiao Nanchen.

Naturally, Ye Jinghuai led Xiao Nanchen to a secluded corner of the backyard.

Then he spoke about the matter, "I intend to develop a relationship with the Jun family."

"Why?" Qin Jiang was shocked.

Xiao Nanchen was also surprised.

But he didn't have as rich a range of facial expressions as Qin Jiang.

"An Nuan suggested that I take the Jun family's path," Ye Jinghuai stated frankly.

"It's An Nuan again!" Qin Jiang couldn't help but complain, "I knew one day you would fall into An Nuan's hands."

"I think An Nuan's analysis makes a lot of sense," Ye Jinghuai explained. "We have always suspected that there was someone behind Gu Yan Sheng supporting him. We haven't been able to find out who that person is, but now we can basically conclude that it's the Di family."

"Just based on An Nuan's words?"

"An Nuan knows many things that we don't, as if she has prophetic abilities, and she wouldn't deceive me."

"Even if she deceives you, you would willingly accept it," Qin Jiang persisted.

Ye Jinghuai glanced at Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang had the expression of someone who knew he had misspoken.

"Now that Gu Yan Sheng has colluded with the Di family, if I take the same path as him, I won't necessarily lose, but it won't be easy to succeed. So, I've decided to take the shortcut of the Jun family," Ye Jinghuai spoke with a firm tone and said to Qin Jiang, "Go back and tell your father."

"Okay," Qin Jiang nodded.

No matter how much objection he had, he would eventually compromise.

"Let's go," after finishing the matter, Ye Jinghuai left.

Qin Jiang looked at Ye Jinghuai's figure.

He had a feeling that Ye Jinghuai wanted to see An Nuan.

The kind of inseparability that couldn't last even for a second.

He turned back to Xiao Nanchen, "Can you go in by yourself?"

After all.

Their relationship was better off not known by others.

Xiao Nanchen nodded, "Yes."

"Then I'll go in too," Qin Jiang said, and reminded him, "Honestly, Gu YanXuan is better than Xia Qiqi. Consider it."

Xiao Nanchen smiled.

He didn't answer Qin Jiang because even if he did, Qin Jiang wouldn't be satisfied.

Qin Jiang also knew that Xiao Nanchen couldn't be convinced.

He could convince him, but it had been hundreds of years since he convinced him not to love Xia Qiqi.

Feeling somewhat speechless, he left too.

Xiao Nanchen stayed in the backyard for a while before heading to the banquet hall.

He rarely attended such banquets before.

Now that his leg was injured, he didn't want to attend even more.

But he still pushed the wheelchair and went in.

The banquet hall was bustling with people coming and going.

"Nanchen," someone walked over from a distance, it was Xia Zheng Hai.

Xiao Nanchen smiled lightly, "Dad."

"Where's Qiqi?" Xia Zheng Hai seemed to have looked around and didn't see her.

Xiao Nanchen didn't know either.

He didn't even know.

If she had gone with Nie Ziming.

"I asked her to come with you, not to leave you behind," Xia Zheng Hai said.

"It's okay," Xiao Nanchen smiled indifferently, "I'm fine now, I can take care of myself."

"Is your health much better?" Xia Zheng Hai asked with concern.

"External injuries have healed, and there's sensation returning to my left leg. The right leg is gradually recovering," Xiao Nanchen always said optimistically.

Since childhood, he never wanted to make others worry about him.

Sometimes Xia Zheng Hai would feel pity for this son who wasn't related by blood.

He felt that this child was truly too passive and unassertive.

If only he showed a little more initiative, Xia Bank would be handed over to him for management.

"That's good," Xia Zheng Hai nodded, seeming to hesitate for a few seconds before asking, "How is your mother doing now?"

"She's doing pretty well. Since she lives alone and doesn't have much going on, she went on a trip to relax these past few days," Xiao Nanchen replied.
