Chapter 654: She’s Going to Adopt My Surname

Gao Lihua shuddered when she saw Qiao Yu’s cold stare. She felt as if the temperature in the room had dropped. Her voice was lower when she said, “I’m only trying to do what’s good for you...”

Keeping his gaze on Gao Lihua, Qiao Yu said in a colder voice. “You’re in no position to interfere with my marriage!”

“Are you listening to yourself? I’m your aunt, of course, I have the right to. I’m only trying to watch out for you. Are you really going to marry that woman?” Gao Lihua was used to having things her way and she had little respect for even her own sister, let alone her nephew. She stared at Qiao Yu, displeased. “Have you lost your mind? You want to marry that actress when you have all the daughters of eminent families to choose from?!”

“Mom, stop it!” Shen Tianlang stared at her mother. She looked like a crazy person to him, which worried him. Had she realized that she had enraged Qiao Yu?!

“If you weren’t my mother’s sister...” Qiao Yu looked like he was covered with ice and his voice was without warmth. “Do you think I would even let you speak to me?”

He meant that he was only talking to Gao Lihua because of his mother. Otherwise, the woman meant nothing to him. What she said just then was enough to make him wipe her off the face of the earth.

And it wasn’t just an empty threat. As the owner of Shengshi, he could achieve that easily.

Gao Lihua stumbled back at that cold, intimidating stare and her voice was trembling. “I, I...”

Shen Tianlang apologized to Qiao Yu. “Yu, my mum didn’t mean to. I’m sorry.”

Although he didn’t like what Gao Lihua said, she was still his mother and he had to help her out.

Darting a look at Shen Tianlang, Qiao Yu calmed down a little.

Leaning against the wall on his sickbed, Shen Donglai said to the tall, nonchalant man. “Yu, don’t listen to your aunt. Xia Ning is only asking for what was supposed to be hers. After all, we were the ones who had hurt her mother. I’m happy to see the two of you getting married. Her mother would like that too.”

“I see you were close to Xia Ning’s mother,” said Qiao Yu in an indifferent tone.

Shen Donglai looked sad. “She was my sister and I cared about her. I couldn’t have Chuxia back in the family. I didn’t like that decision, but I had my difficulties. I didn’t know Xia Ning would keep grudges against me and the Shen family for it. Please talk to her. Tell her that we’re all her family and we want her back.”

Qiao Yu glanced at Shen Donglai. “Mr. Shen, if you really cared about Xia Ning’s mother like you said, you wouldn’t have cut her off when she had cancer or covered things up after her car accident. That’s all I will say for now. As for if she wants to reconcile with your family, that’s not a decision I can make.”

Shen Donglai didn’t expect Qiao Yu to know about what happened back then, but that was his least concern at the moment.

He believed that if Qiao Yu married Xia Ning, the money of the Shen family would become too petty a sum for Qiao Yu to come after. He had to come up with a reason for Qiao Yu to spare the Shen family.

He said to Qiao Yu, who had turned his back on him. “Xia Ning is still a member of the Shen family. Aren’t you guys getting married soon? Her grandfather and I both hope that she can get married from our family home. That way, the marriage will draw all the attention of S City.”

Qiao Yu stopped and turned around. There was an arrogant look on his handsome face. “Mr. Shen, that won’t be a problem. It doesn’t matter which my family my wife is from. As long as she adopts my surname, she will be envied by the entire world.”
