Chen Xueru looked at herself in the wedding gown and smiled. Once upon a time, she had dreamed of wearing a wedding dress one day, walking towards marriage alongside Gu Rui, but now, she was putting on this gown for someone else.

Her emotions were complex.

However, beauty is pleasing to the eye; anyone would feel wonderful, absolutely wonderful, when dressed in such a wedding dress...

"Xiao Nian, does mommy look pretty" Tang Mandong asked.

Xiao Nian cooed in English, "So beautiful! Mommy looks like an angel!" Both Tang Warm and Tang Mandong laughed.

Aside from the slight alteration needed at the waist, there were no issues with the wedding dress. Actually, it could be worn as is; Chen Xueru also liked this gown very much. After the photographer took a set of pictures for backup purposes, Chen Xueru changed back into her own clothes.

Warm felt envious and wished she could wear a wedding dress too...

However, such impulses were merely that—impulses. For her, marriage was still very far away; the moment she thought of Ye Feimo, her heart sank. How long would it take for him to clarify his boundaries with Han Bi

When Chen Xueru was changing into her wedding dress, an unexpected guest arrived at the studio—Zhao Yuning.

She looked sickly with a pale and haggard expression, appearing frail. She wore a slip skirt, a beige long coat, black boot pants, and tall boots. Her posture was perfect, exuding the elegance and grace of an aristocratic lady.

Zhao Yuning's gaze fell upon Xiao Nian, making Xiao Nian feel afraid. Tang Mandong bent down to pick up her nephew and coldly looked at Zhao Yuning, "Miss Zhao, what brings you here"

Wasn't she in the hospital

What is she doing at the studio

How did she know that my sister-in-law was here

"I want to see Chen Xueru," Zhao Yuning said, her voice soft and weak, evoking pity. Just then, Chen Xueru had changed into a light pink knitted top with a white knitted outer jacket and a white scarf around her neck. She looked at Zhao Yuning with some guilt when she saw her, feeling somewhat awkward as she glanced at Warming and Tang Mandong.

Xiao Nian called out "Mommy," and Chen Xueru walked over, politely greeting Zhao Yuning, "Hello, Miss Zhao."

"So you know who I am.

Chen Xier nodded, and Zhao Yunning smiled slightly, "Miss Chen, may I speak with you alone"

Tang Mandong said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, there's a café nearby. Shall we go for a drink Little Nian is hungry too; let's get something to eat. Miss Zhao, if it doesn't bother you, would you like to join us"

The term 'sister-in-law' caused Zhao Yunning's expression to change slightly, and she clenched her teeth tightly as she realized that originally, she should have been Tang Mandong's sister-in-law.

"Miss Chen, I insist on speaking with you alone," Zhao Yunning maintained firmly. Chen Xier wasn't very keen on talking separately with her, not because she couldn't handle it but because she didn't want to deal with it.

Tang Shuwen had after all harmed Zhao Yunning for the sake of their mother-son relationship, and upon meeting, she always felt that she was at fault. She didn’t know what to say to Zhao Yunning, while Tang Mandong said, "Miss Zhao, there's nothing my sister-in-law has to keep from us. Either you join us for a cup of coffee or please leave."

Café.

The group ordered coffees; Warmth usually drank cappuccino, while Tang Mandong and Chen Xier opted for latte, Zhao Yunning ordered a mocha, and Little Nian requested a slice of Black Forest cake to eat.

Zhao Yunning sat with Warmth on one side, while Tang Mandong and Chen Xier were seated together. Little Nian was sitting between her aunt and mother eating the cake. Zhao Yunning's eyes fell upon Little Nian, which greatly displeased Tang Mandong; she said sternly, "If you have something to say, just spit it out. Why are you staring at my Little Nian I believe your health isn't good. Once you've finished speaking, please return home for rest immediately. Your frail body can’t afford to catch a cold—otherwise, we won’t be able to bear the responsibility."

Zhao Yunning's expression changed; she stared straight at Chen Xier, her intention clear: she must speak with Chen Xier alone. Chen Xier pursed her lips and said coolly, "Miss Zhao, there isn't anything about me that I need to hide from Mandong or Warmth. If you have something to say, feel free."

"Miss Chen, you’ve taken another woman’s man, yet you don’t dare to speak a word with me alone" Zhao Yuning asked sharply.

Tang Mandong suddenly slammed her fist on the table. "Please address me as Mr. Tang's wife."

Zhao Yuning’s face instantly turned pale; she looked at Tang Mandong in disbelief, then coldly laughed. "They haven’t married yet—there’s still a chance for everything to change. Addressing you as Mr. Tang’s wife might be premature."

Tang Mandong gave a cold laugh. This woman was still dreaming.

Chen Xierui said, "Miss Zhao, what you call me doesn’t matter; what do you want"

"Wouldn’t you know why I’m here Leaving Shu Wen, Miss Chen, we’re all women. How could you be so heartless Your marriage to Shu Wen will make all three of us unhappy, including your son—he’ll suffer too. You can’t marry him and ignore everyone’s happiness in the process. Miss Chen, let’s set things right."

Zhao Yuning said, "You might not feel it now, but you’re going to regret this. Taking a man who doesn’t belong to you and forcing a marriage that isn’t yours—how can that bring you happiness"

When Tang Mandong spoke, Chen Xierui shook her head; she had just held back her temper. Smiling, Chen Xierui said, "Miss Zhao, I’ve told these things to Tang Shuwen too. He’s determined to marry me regardless. I understand your feelings and can empathize with your situation. But you’re mistaken—there’s nothing I can do for you. You should talk to Tang Shuwen; if he gives up on this marriage, I have no complaints."

She would even be happy as long as Tang Shuwen was willing to let go and not take Xiao Nian from her.

Zhao Yuning gave a cold laugh. "You speak so prettily, do you think I don’t know what’s going through your mind Chen Xierui, you’ve been with my cousin in the entertainment industry for years—how many people have you been with Now that you finally have a chance to use the child to control Shu Wen, how could you let go of it This is your opportunity to rise from obscurity and become a phoenix. So regardless of everyone else’s feelings, you’re exploiting an innocent child to sabotage us—you’ll ruin all our lives.arm couldn't bear listening anymore and spoke up. If their roles were reversed and Chen Xier had her boyfriend taken away by someone else, she would immediately step in and slap the other woman twice....
