“Mm.”
Lin Xuan nodded, producing a large stack of red envelopes.
“These are all red envelopes for you. Come over and collect them.”
“Thank you, Master.”
The servants stepped forward with smiles, each taking a red envelope.
Lin Xuan continued walking toward the villa.
Butler Wang said with a smile, “Master, the decorations at Night Garden were all done by the young lady herself over the last three days, with our help.”
“Mm.”
Lin Xuan’s lips curved slightly.
He walked step by step to the second floor, to the room he shared with Su Hua.
He pushed open the door.
Under the warm yellow light.
A figure in a wedding gown stood with her back to him.
Su Hua turned around.
Today, she wore slightly heavier makeup than usual, with bright red lipstick on her lips.
Her features were stunningly beautiful.
When she lifted her eyes, her gaze shimmered.
Her long hair was half pinned up, with a few strands clinging to her neck, and a long veil trailing behind her.
She was wrapped in white silk, the waistband studded with sparkling diamonds, the fitted design accentuating her graceful curves.
At that moment, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
Su Hua walked step by step toward Lin Xuan.
It was as if she were bathed entirely in warm, soft light.
Lin Xuan was utterly mesmerized.
Even on ordinary days, his Huabao was already stunning; he never imagined seeing her in a wedding gown would hit him with such force.
Su Hua reached Lin Xuan.
“Ah Xuan.”
Su Hua was pleased with the awe on Lin Xuan’s face. She curled her lips and extended a hand to him, “My husband, aren’t you going to take my hand, hmm?”
“Oh, right.”
Snapping back to reality, Lin Xuan quickly clasped Su Hua’s hand.
Su Hua and Lin Xuan appeared in the living room.
The servants erupted in applause.
“Congratulations to the young lady and the master on your union.”
Su Hua’s red lips curved uncontrollably.
It seemed she’d need to give them extra bonuses this month.
Su Hua and Lin Xuan got into the wedding car.
One hundred luxury cars set off from Night Garden in an imposing procession, heading toward the hotel.
Passersby stared at the seemingly endless line of luxury cars, completely dumbfounded.
“So many luxury cars! Who’s getting married?”
“You don’t know? It’s the head of Tianmu Group marrying the president of Su Corporation. How could their wedding be anything less than extravagant?”
“Are we witnessing history?”
The event was livestreamed the whole way.
Major social media platforms were dominated by the news of Su Hua and Lin Xuan’s wedding, with the online viewer count for their ceremony reaching fifty million.
Netizens thought the luxury cars, the fireworks, and the drones in the sky were already lavish enough.
But when the camera showed the wedding venue, they truly understood what opulence meant.
Netizens commented:
—Holy crap, how much did this wedding cost? Honestly, I’m jealous. Envy has twisted me beyond recognition.
—This is what a grand wedding looks like! A real grand wedding!
—Everyone’s staring at the venue, but am I the only one checking out the guests? Damn! So many big shots! These tycoons rarely even show up in TV dramas. Su Hua and Lin Xuan have serious pull…
The host smiled on stage, “Now, let’s welcome the bride and groom.”
The hotel doors swung open.
The camera focused on Su Hua and Lin Xuan.
Everyone present was visibly awestruck.
Jiang Shuqin, working on-site, also looked over curiously, wanting to know who was getting married.
One glance.
She froze on the spot, her pupils contracting sharply.
The people getting married were actually Xuan’er and Su Hua…
Jiang Shuqin’s eyes reddened instantly.
Her own biological son was getting married, and she, as his mother, didn’t even know.
“Xuan’er, I’m sorry.”
Jiang Shuqin’s heart ached.
Ever since she learned that Xuan’er wasn’t a curse—that everything was a scheme by Lin Li and Wang Yajun—she had been tormented by guilt, unable to sleep night after night.
If Xuan’er still hated her, that would mean he still cared about her as his mother.
But Xuan’er no longer hated her.
In his eyes, she had become a stranger.
A tear unconsciously rolled down Jiang Shuqin’s cheek.
The hotel service team leader frowned and walked over to Jiang Shuqin. “What are you standing around for? Why aren’t you working?”
“And on a wedding day like this, you’re crying? Wipe away those tears right now!”
“Yes.”
Head down, Jiang Shuqin wiped her tears and resumed clearing the trash from a table.
She no longer had the right to appear before Xuan’er.
If she could have a second chance.
She would have loved Xuan’er with all her heart.
But there would be no such chance.
A bitter smile tugged at Jiang Shuqin’s lips.
Still, being able to watch Xuan’er’s wedding was enough for her.
Unfortunately.
The hotel didn’t give Jiang Shuqin that chance.
The hotel manager noticed her.
He frowned.
“What are you doing here?”
The team leader walked up to the manager. “Manager, I assigned her here. Is there a problem?”
The manager said coldly, “You let her work here? Do you know who she is?”
“Who?” The team leader frowned.
The manager’s voice was icy. “This is Jiang Shuqin, the biological mother Lin Xuan cut ties with! Everyone knows that when Lin Xuan was in the Lin family, they abused him constantly. And you let Jiang Shuqin come to Lin Xuan’s wedding? If she does something, can you take responsibility?”
The team leader trembled. “Manager, I’m sorry. I didn’t know she was Lin Xuan’s blind mother.”
The manager cast a cold glance at Jiang Shuqin.
“Leave now.”
“You’ll still be paid your wages for today.”
Jiang Shuqin quickly pleaded, “Manager, please, I promise I won’t cause any trouble. Please don’t make me leave.”
She wanted to stay and witness Xuan’er’s wedding with her own eyes.
She had already wronged Xuan’er terribly.
His wedding was such an important moment—there was no way she would sabotage it.
She couldn’t do anything more to hurt little Xuan.
The manager said coldly, “I’m not taking any risks. Jiang Shuqin, if you don’t leave now, I’ll have security escort you out—and fire you on the spot.”
Jiang Shuqin had no choice.
This was the job she had barely managed to find, even if it was just cleaning. Losing it would leave her sweeping the streets to make a living.
“I’m sorry. I’ll leave now.”
Jiang Shuqin glanced reluctantly in Lin Xuan’s direction.
Her eyes were bloodshot.
Biting her lip, she turned and left.
