Chapter 19 - Married

"Senior, I'm very grateful for my brother's matter. I'll leave it to you. The driver is here to pick us up. I still have something to do in the afternoon, so I'll leave with Aunt Xiang first. We'll contact each other again. Thank you."

Before Chen Shaocong could finish his sentence, Song Yunshu interrupted him.

She didn't give him a chance to speak again. She nodded politely and pulled Aunt Xiang toward her car.

Xiao Liu looked at Chen Shaocong with a smug look as if he was saying something.

Look, this is our young mistress. Not just anyone can covet her.

Xiao Liu gave him a provocative look, then turned around and quickly caught up with Song Yunshu and the others.

He went to the car door and opened it for them.

Chen Shaocong kept looking at their distant figures until the car completely disappeared from his sight. Only then did he finally withdraw his gaze.

The tip of his tongue pressed against the roof of his mouth, and he felt an indescribable bitter feeling in his heart.

Had he still been one step too late?

...

On the way back, Aunt Xiang was still in a state of shock.

Song Yunshu told Xiao Liu the location of Aunt Xiang's house.

It wasn't until she got out of the car and sent Aunt Xiang upstairs that she came back to her senses and held Song Yunshu's hand tightly.

"Song Song, what's going on? Why did the chauffeur downstairs call you Madam? You..."

"Don't be nervous and don't worry. Actually, Huo Cen and I registered our marriage yesterday."

"What?"

Song Yunshu's explanation shocked Aunt Xiang.

Aunt Xiang immediately reached out her rough and calloused hand and held Song Yunshu's hand tightly.

"But isn't Huo Cen supposed to marry the An family's daughter? Didn't you say that you were going to attend a wedding yesterday? How did it suddenly turn into you and Huo Cen getting married?"

Aunt Xiang didn't know how to describe her feelings.

She had watched Yunshu grow up.

But now, she had inexplicably married someone.

Moreover, she had married into the Huo family's den of tigers and wolves.

How could she not be worried?

"Something happened to An Jiaqing and a scandal was exposed the night before the wedding. An Linghe begged me to marry Huo Cen in place of An Jiaqing."

"What? An Linghe, that old man, first harmed your parents, then Yunsheng, and now he won't even let you off. What did your family owe him for him to harm your family one by one?"

Aunt Xiang was so angry that her chest heaved up and down violently.

She suddenly let go of Song Yunshu's hand and turned to walk downstairs.

"This matter can't be left like this. I have to go find An Linghe. I want to ask him what else this bastard wants!"

Song Yunshu quickly reached out to stop her. "Auntie, don't go. I agreed to this myself. It's useless even if you go to him. What's done is done."

"Besides, it's not like I'm completely without benefits. I'll exchange the company's shares for it. Now, I'm the largest shareholder of Xu'an Group. I'll take back everything that he stole from my parents step by step."

Seeing how determined she was.

Aunt Xiang gave up.

For a moment, she felt as if her heartache was about to overflow.

"Song Song, if you need any help, just let me know. Although I'm not very capable, I can still do some small favors. If that old fool An Linghe tries to bully you again, don't keep it to yourself. You must tell me, okay?"

"Aunt Xiang, don't worry. Before I find out what happened to my parents and Yunsheng, I won't let anything happen to me."
