After Being Cyber Bullied, She Reveals Her True Identity

Chapter 115: Chapter 115: The Auspicious Dragon and Phoenix Banquet Chapter 115: Chapter 115: The Auspicious Dragon and Phoenix Banquet Liu Su ran to the car and stood by the window, “Sir, I have already booked a spot at the small mansion for you. Today is your wedding day, and if you’re not going back home to celebrate, you should at least take your wife out for a meal to go through the motions.”

Qi Si didn’t refuse such an arrangement.

Liu Su returned satisfied to Shen Yan’s side, telling her to celebrate well with Qi Si.

The driver was sent away from the car, leaving with Liu Su in another vehicle.

Shen Yan sat in the passenger seat, admiring the streetscapes of Beijing along the way.

She didn’t know where Qi Si was taking her.

Even though they had registered their marriage, the way they interacted seemed to have not changed.

Seeing that Shen Yan was so engrossed in the view outside, he thought she was homesick.

“Do you want to go back to the Shen Family?”

“Eh?” Shen Yan turned around, “No need to go back to the Shen Family, I’d rather return to Shen City.”

Though Beijing looked nice too.

Compared to Shen City that she was getting used to, she longed for the familiarity of her own place.

Qi Si had already informed Shen Zheng about their registration.

The car entered the main urban area, passing a square.

Watching the fluttering red flags, Shen Yan rested her hand on the car window, gazing up at the waving red silk somewhat distractedly.

Qi Si slowed down the car.

Letting her appreciate the view at leisure.

Shen Yan withdrew her gaze from the far end of the square, her eyes then fell on the red walls and yellow tiles on the other side.

In the past, she too had wanted to visit Beijing to witness its grandeur.

She regretted not living freely before she turned fifteen.

Early on, she realized her own abnormality and used a low profile to hide herself.

Taking care of her younger siblings for her busy parents…

Although she was born into a scientific family like the Shen Family, the object of everyone’s admiration and envy, who knew she had fantasized about being just an ordinary girl with an ordinary family.

The car left that area, entering another bustling district, and Shen Yan grew calmer.

The small mansion was not small at all.

A courtyard-style dining venue.

Understated yet upscale.

Not to mention ordinary people, even those with a bit of status and background found it hard to book a spot here.

Qi Si drove straight into the open-air parking lot of the small mansion, where a spot had been waiting for them, and a waiter already there displayed a very respectful gesture upon seeing Qi Si, “Mr. Qi, the private room you requested is ready. Would you like to dine now, or…”

His words were cut off by a voice behind him.

“Qi Si.”

Shen Yan had just gotten out of the car when she heard someone call out to Qi Si and turned to look.

A tall figure hurried towards them, his handsome face shadowed with a hint of gloom, as if ready to confront Qi Si.

The other party indeed had changed his expression to come question Qi Si.

“Qi Si, what you did this time was really a bit too much,”

the man stood in front of Qi Si, his voice tinged with resentment.

Qi Si looked at Zhai Hongshen, who seemed about to throw a punch, his expression indifferent, “I warned the Zhai Family.”

Zhai Hongshen almost laughed out of anger, “Is that a warning? You’re clearly out to get Xilan’s life. That accident… my mother almost…”

Qi Si, like an emotionless robot, uttered a mechanical, icy voice, “Mrs. Zhai was informed and still acquiesced to your sister’s actions.”

Zhai Hongshen took a deep breath, “Xilan just wasn’t thinking, my mother also didn’t expect things to turn out like this.”

“You side with your family, which I understand,” Qi Si really didn’t want to explain to this friend.

Because his friend’s mind was still muddled.

Standing a few steps behind, Shen Yan gleaned a truth from their conversation.

The attack in Jin City was orchestrated by the sister of this man.

The Zhai Family.

Shen Yan sized up the man, making a mental note of the words Zhai Family.

Zhai Hongshen knew they were in the wrong, but Qi Si’s approach still left him irate, yet powerless to do anything about it.

“For the benefit of both families, you really are capable,” Zhai Hongshen now could only admit defeat, “So now what? What else do you want to do?”

“Retaliate all at once if you’re going to retaliate.

Don’t do it in drips and drabs; it’s exhausting.”

Qi Si didn’t say anything more.

The meaning was clear.

The matter would end here.

Of course, this required the cooperation of the Zhai Family.

If the Zhai Family wanted to stir up trouble still, he wouldn’t mind taking action again.

Watching Qi Si’s indifferent expression, Zhai Hongshen couldn’t help but curse inwardly.

He couldn’t understand why his sister would fall for him?

Zhai Hongshen’s gaze finally landed on Shen Yan. Seeing her here was just a bit surprising, and he couldn’t muster a smile for Shen Yan.

He nodded solemnly at Shen Yan as a greeting.

“The matter with Xilan ends here. I won’t let anything like this happen again. Since you’re busy, I won’t invite you over. When you’re free, let’s all get together again.”

After saying this to Qi Si, Zhai Hongshen strode away from Shen Yan’s side.

Shen Yan watched Zhai Hongshen’s figure disappear into the archaic arched doorway before she withdrew her gaze.

Qi Si saw that she didn’t ask or say anything.

*

The so-called side room was a dining area in the small courtyard.

From the moment she entered, Shen Yan felt as if she was in another era.

Everything was old-world charm, with very few modern things to be seen.

Pushing open the door to the side room, both Shen Yan and Qi Si were stunned!

The waiter smiled and said, “Mr. Qi, this is the ‘dragon and phoenix bring auspiciousness’ wedding feast you’ve ordered! Enjoy your meal at your leisure!”

Qi Si: “…”

Shen Yan: “…”

On both sides of the door, there hung large red silk flowers, above which were hung red paper-cut lanterns. There were also handmade red candles, red ‘double happiness’ window decorations, and the tablecloth was made of silk emblazoned with the character for jubilation…

Even the cushions on the rosewood chairs were embroidered with the character for happiness, and the food was all festive in style, with rosewood chopsticks also imprinted with the gleaming word for happiness.

Even the bowls were…

Even the soup placed in the center of the table had a “happiness” floating in it…

Everywhere you looked, it was all about celebration!

There was something slightly eerie amidst the festivity…

Shen Yan looked towards Qi Si.

Qi Si’s gaze was cold, and his fists were clenched so tightly they crackled.

She was sure that if Liu Su were here, he would have been throttled on the spot!

Shen Yan felt he must be quite embarrassed and suggested, “Shall we celebrate somewhere else instead?”

“No need,” Qi Si said with an icy tone that barely hid his gritted teeth.

“It’s a waste not to eat such a large spread,” they would just have to make do.

Shen Yan sat down at the table first, picking up the happiness-emblazoned chopsticks and looking at the big spread of red dishes… Some that were not originally red had been forcefully dyed.

Everything in sight was red; it was really glaring!

Shen Yan took a deep breath, picked up the bowl, and uncovered the rice beside her, then stopped.

“Snap.”

Shen Yan quickly covered the pot again, afraid that even the steam would turn red.

Qi Si’s face grew even colder.

Now Shen Yan also wanted to throttle Liu Su!

Everything else was tolerable.

But turning the rice into bright red was just overdoing the festiveness!

Unable to endure it any longer, Qi Si finally called the manager of the small mansion and asked for everything in the room to be removed.

The manager came quickly with his people, swiftly removing all the eerie celebration from the room, so efficiently that Shen Yan couldn’t help but praise them.

No wonder they were successful; this efficiency was impressive.

Soon, they served a new batch of normal dishes.

Shen Yan looked at the newly normal-colored dishes and felt much more at ease.

The two reseated themselves, and then Shen Yan’s phone rang with a call from Shen Zheng: “Since you’re back in Beijing and it’s your registration day, bring Qi Si home for dinner tonight.”
