She Becomes Glamorous After The Engagement Annulment Ⅱ - Chapter 1209

Chapter 1209: Xia Yehua’s Marriage (4)

Shen Liangchuan frowned as he looked at the doorway.

He knew that all these years, Xia Yehua had felt she couldn’t do enough to make up for leaving the Shen family without taking Shen Zihao with her.

Hence if Shen Zihao did not agree to the marriage, she would not go ahead with it.

But how were they going to persuade Shen Zihao?

He furrowed his brow, feeling perturbed by not knowing what his brother was thinking.

Seeing how troubled the two men were, Qiao Lian said with a wave of her hand, “Stop fretting already, you two. I can easily get Nuannuan to ask him.”

–

An hour later, just before dinner was ready, Xia Nuannuan knocked on the study door and walked in. Smiling, she greeted everyone as Qiao Lian hurriedly asked, “Nuannuan, why is Shen Zihao objecting? Mom has had a hard time for many years, it’s only reasonable that she finds a partner now.”

Xia Nuannuan coughed once and said, “Uh huh, that’s what I said. Zihao said of course he will give Mom his blessings if she got married, but—”

She hesitated as she looked at Li Tianyu.

Li Tianyu paused.

Shen Liangchuan pointed at him and said, “You, go make us some tea.”

Li Tianyu: …

“Sure, Big Brother, I’m here with my father to seek your mother’s hand in marriage, so of course I should help you with the chores.”

Saying this, he retreated from the study and shut the door behind him.

Qiao Lian looked at Xia Nuannuan and said, “Nuannuan, you can speak freely now.”

Before speaking, Xia Nuannuan sighed.

Then she started, “The reason Zihao is objecting is because of… you, Big Brother.”

Ever since Shen Zihao had reconciled with Shen Liangchuan and his mother, both Xia Nuannuan and he had been addressing Shen Liangchuan as big brother. They were truly a family again.

But right now, Xia Nuannuan’s remark completely stumped Qiao Lian. “What has Mom’s marriage got to do with Shen Liangchuan?”

Xia Nuannuan cleared her throat and said hesitantly, “Erm, actually… I’m not sure how to explain this myself. But I sort of understand where Zihao’s coming from.”

She lowered her head, looking quite embarrassed, and continued, “He said that after Mom gets married, he won’t be your only brother.”

Qiao Lian: …!!

Shen Liangchuan: …!!!

After all the talking, that was Shen Zihao’s reason for objecting?!

Qiao Lian couldn’t help grimacing.

Was Shen Zihao a child? He was actually worried about someone else taking his big brother away?

Grimacing, Qiao Lian lifted her head and looked at Xia Nuannuan, finally understanding why the girl was hesitating and looking embarrassed.

Even she thought that Shen Zihao’s thinking was absolutely childish.

However the next moment, Xia Nuannuan continued, “You two have always shared a mother, so he doesn’t mind someone else sharing her too. But he sees your role as a big brother as something that belongs exclusively to him alone. Especially in the last eight years, he has missed having a brother to go play tennis with, jog with. You have only just now fixed things, and then Li Tianyu comes along, so he doesn’t feel comfortable.”

Qiao Lian was stumped.

Shen Liangchuan got onto his feet and said, “What sort of craziness is this? Let me talk to him.”

Then he walked out of the study.

Bam. The door was slammed shut. The two women exchanged a look and suddenly burst out laughing.
