Yun Nan and Xiang Yang nodded and praised, “Mom is so thoughtful.”

The ladies around them couldn’t help but laugh. “Xu Yun, you’re so lucky. People would mistake your daughters-in-law for your daughters with how sweet they are to you. I’m so envious.”

Xu Yun smugly stated, “I may not be able to compare with you ladies in other aspects, but I won’t lose when it comes to my daughters-in-law!”

Han Yuan sized up Yun Nan, smiled, and said, “So you’re the woman Shi Nian married without a wedding ceremony.”

Everyone suddenly went silent for a couple of seconds before Xu Yun pulled Yun Nan close and smilingly told everyone, “We’re still busy making preparations for that. Ladies, none of you are allowed to refuse our invitation when we hold the wedding. You all simply must come and show your support!” Everyone hurriedly went along and replied, “Of course. We’ll definitely be there.”

“Yes, definitely!”

Han Yuan looked at Yun Nan with a smile. “Look at how supportive all of us are! But you still haven’t told us when the ceremony will be. Yun Nan, when are you going to hold the wedding? You have to be careful; you wouldn’t want to get pregnant before the wedding—you won’t be able to wear a beautiful wedding dress if that happens. Although you two have registered your marriage, people will talk if you’re a pregnant bride on your wedding day. They might think this is your second marriage after getting pregnant from your first!”

Yun Nan was about to speak when Xiang Yang tugged her hand and stage-whispered, “If you ask me, you should just forego the wedding ceremony. You have no idea how tired I was during the wedding when Shi Ke and I married. Just the banquet alone took three days. Really, there’s truly no need to use the wedding to prove anything. Our family can give you a large bride-dowry to show how much we appreciate you, and we don’t have to prove anything to others.”

Yun Nan smiled and nodded. “Xiang Yang, I totally agree. Shi Nian and I don’t want to deal with all that, so we don’t want to hold a wedding. However, Grandpa loves a good party; he asked Mom and Dad to hold a grand wedding for us. Shi Nian and I were terrified when we heard that.” Xiang Yang and Yun Nan huddled together and laughed.

However, Han Yuan wouldn’t stop pestering them about the wedding. “Oh, Xiang Yang, that’s wrong of you to say that. How can your sister-in-law not have a wedding? Are you worried your sister-in-law’s wedding will overshadow yours, so you don’t want them to have a wedding?”

As she spoke, she turned around and shared a look with the ladies on good terms with her, and they all laughed together.

Xiang Yang’s face lost its smile and turned cold. Xu Yun glanced at Han Yuan, and her smile also faded. “I think you should worry about Xi Cheng and Lin Yu before worrying about others,” Xu Yun remarked. “Their engagement ceremony was so grand you’ll be hard-pressed to hold an even grander wedding ceremony; I’m really worried something might go wrong. I heard that Xi Cheng is always at odds with Lin Yu. You should give them some advice and guidance, or I fear we might not have a wedding ceremony to attend. ”

Seeing Xu Yun’s cold expression, Han Yuan didn’t dare to cause further trouble and replied sheepishly, “Of course, I will!”

Xiang Yang and Yun Nan looked at each other and smiled. Their mother-in-law wasn’t a suggestible and biased paper tiger. She wouldn’t allow such insolence from anyone, especially if they were targeting her family.

Xiang Yang and Yun Nan accompanied their mother-in-law and gave the group of ladies a tour of the entire exhibition hall. Xiang Yang informed everyone about the origin of each and every piece of jewelry and what they symbolized. She also introduced Yun Nan’s paintings. Although most of these people didn’t understand what Xiang Yang was talking about, they pretended they did and still tried their best to praise the artworks and jewelry.

Yun Nan saw Xiang Yang’s calm expression and knew she was used to such “spectacles.” She couldn’t help but smile and think, ‘This sister-in-law ofmine is indeed interesting. ‘

Yun Nan had heard Xiang Yang and Shi Ke’s romance story from Shi Xiu. However, Shi Xiu tends to side with her sisters-in-law over her elder brothers, so her story is definitely biased due to her rose-tinted glasses.

Xiang Yang had accompanied Shi Ke into the army. She’d made huge sacrifices when she married Shi Ke and became an army wife. Only love could have made this cold beauty sacrifice herself to help her husband.

Although Yun Nan didn’t believe in love, she didn’t dislike love stories; she admired both the happy and the unhappy ones. Those who dared to love were brave. No matter if it was Xiang Yang—who succeeded in love—or Fang Xi— who failed—they were all brave and endearing people.

The exhibition will officially be held in two days. During these two days, the important figures in Yun Nan’s studio had all become good friends with Xiang Yang. They all took a three-day holiday to come support Xiang Yang the day her exhibition officially began.

Xiang Yang was very busy during the exhibition. The venue was full of notable figures and elites, brought in by a perfect combination of Xiang Yang’s reputation and the Shi family’s status. Yun Nan and Shi Xiu accompanied Xu Yun and stayed by her side during the event.

The jewelry pieces that were available for sale were sold out in less than an hour on the first day of the exhibition. Then, people began to queue up to make pre-orders. Both the host and guests enjoyed themselves in such a lively scene..
