Shen Qingqing slowly extended her hand.
The silver ring was slowly placed onto her finger.
Fu Jingshu's hand slowly tightened, pulling her into his embrace, and he imprinted a kiss on her forehead, "From now on, you are officially Mrs. Fu."
Shen Qingqing looked at the ring that fit her finger perfectly, "Say, were you planning this from the start?"
"Yes."
He actually admitted it directly.
Shen Qingqing's mouth twitched, and then she couldn't help but smile, "Anyway, from today onwards, you're mine. All those scummy exes need to be dealt with!"
Fu Jingshu agreed without a second thought, "Absolutely."
She was somewhat satisfied.
The twins peeked their heads in from the doorway, their bright eyes looking at them. Shen Jinxi was the first to ask, "Are you guys reconciled now?"
"Mhm."
Upon receiving the answer, Shen Jinxi beamed, "As long as Mommy is happy, that's what matters. Right, Brother?"
He didn't forget to nudge Chenchen with his elbow.
Chenchen nodded without a second thought.
The next day, Fu Jingshu took her to buy a wedding dress. Shen Qingqing was forced to wake up early, complaining, "This is too rushed. We agreed to rest for a few days."
They had agreed the day before to take a few days off, not go to work, and just enjoy their time… the four of them.
"You can rest, but it won't delay choosing the wedding dress."
Fu Jingshu pushed her into the car without further ado and took her to a top-tier bridal shop in the city.
"Originally, I thought you might like a wedding dress you designed yourself, but..."
Yet, he still wanted to personally pick out a unique wedding dress for her.
Shen Qingqing didn't have any particular obsession with wedding dresses, but as a woman, seeing the snow-white gowns, her heart still fluttered a little.
The manager personally came to greet them, "Guests, what kind of style are you looking for?"
Fu Jingshu said, "The best."
The manager immediately understood that Mr. Fu wasn't interested in the displayed items. Decisively, she ordered someone to bring out the shop's most prized wedding dresses.
This strapless wedding dress was as pure white as snow, with layers upon layers of skirt. It was embroidered with exquisite patterns in silver thread, and the lines of the patterns were adorned with white diamonds.
It was truly stunning.
Fu Jingshu only glanced at the wedding dress before looking at Shen Qingqing and then said, "Go try it on."
Shen Qingqing walked over and touched the hem of the skirt, very satisfied with the smooth fabric against her fingertips. She then asked a sales assistant to hold the wedding dress and followed her into the fitting room.
Just as she reached the doorway, she heard a familiar voice exclaim in surprise.
"Jingshu, Miss Shen!"
"Daddy!"
A little meatball ran to Fu Jingshu's side, looking up at him with pleading eyes. It was Nuonuo, and chasing after her was Lu Wanying.
Lu Wanying smiled and greeted them, "What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"
It was probably not a coincidence.
The smile on Shen Qingqing's lips gradually faded.
"What are you doing here?" Fu Jingshu frowned slightly.
His unwelcoming attitude was so obvious that Lu Wanying pursed her lips sadly. Beside her, Nuonuo suddenly started rubbing her eyes and crying.
"Daddy, do you not love me anymore? Are you really going to marry someone else? What about Mommy and me?"
One sentence carried a vast amount of information.
Everyone looked at them in stunned silence.
Just moments ago, they had seen a handsome man and a beautiful woman, looking perfectly matched. But now, a child suddenly appeared, calling another woman Mommy. Was this a third party interfering?
Times were truly changing!
Some people had already started shaking their heads in lament, their gazes towards Shen Qingqing shifting from admiration to disdain.
Lu Wanying's lips quickly curved upwards, feigning a sad expression, "Jingshu, if you really want to marry Miss Shen, I won't stop you. But Nuonuo, she is your child, you can't abandon her."
Nuonuo cried, "Daddy, don't leave me..."
The child's cries were young and pitiful, making it hard for people to bear. Someone accused, "How can a third party have the audacity to buy wedding dresses? They already have a child, can you stop destroying someone's family?"
"Exactly, breaking up a marriage is asking for thunder to strike!"
Fu Jingshu's brows furrowed, and his cold gaze swept around. Wherever his eyes fell, people were subdued by his imposing presence and averted their gaze.
Lu Wanying gritted her teeth and shifted her attack, "Miss Shen, a child cannot be without a father, please understand."
Shen Qingqing walked slowly to Fu Jingshu's side and calmly linked her arm through his, "What are you talking about, Miss Lu? This is my fiancé, what does he have to do with you?"
"I indeed have nothing to do with her."
Fu Jingshu's curt words gave her no face at all.
Shen Qingqing looked at Nuonuo, who was still rubbing her eyes but shedding no tears, "Lu Wanying, in the end, this is your child. I hope you can teach your child to be better, and not always resort to these 'green tea' tactics."
"Miss Shen, how can you say that? She's still a child!"
Lu Wanying hugged Nuonuo tightly, covering her ears.
What a devoted mother, protecting her daughter.
Everyone marveled.
Fu Jingshu, unwilling to watch her act, said blandly, "Lu Wanying, do you want me to reveal the truth?"
Lu Wanying's eyes shot up to him, *No, he wouldn't dare!*
"I will."
He seemed to see into her innermost thoughts and gave a firm answer. His cold expression and resolute demeanor told her.
He absolutely would.
If he were provoked.
Lu Wanying became somewhat afraid. The child's parentage absolutely could not be exposed. She dared not throw mud at them any longer, "Jingshu, this is all a misunderstanding. The child just misses her father too much. We have no ill intentions."
Her disjointed words had already drawn many strange glances.
She forced a smile, "If you two want to be together, I also offer my blessings."
At this point, some clever individuals had realized that the relationship between these three was not as simple as it appeared. Everyone was just observing, unwilling to get too involved, so no one spoke further.
Fu Jingshu gently nudged the woman beside him, "Go try on the wedding dress."
Shen Qingqing then went.
In less than five minutes, she emerged from the fitting room, clad in a pure white wedding dress, as pure as fresh snow. It dispelled some of the allure from her delicate face, adding a touch of sanctity instead.
Fu Jingshu stared, captivated, and with a wave of his hand, declared, "This one."
He slapped his card on the counter, and the manager immediately rushed to process the payment, beaming from ear to ear. She knew that Mr. Fu was undoubtedly her biggest client in the past six months.
This single wedding dress was equivalent to twenty ordinary wedding dresses.
Seeing all eyes on Shen Qingqing, Lu Wanying was naturally unwilling. While Fu Jingshu was taking a phone call, she followed him.
"I want a wedding dress too."
Fu Jingshu gave her a strange look and turned to leave.
Lu Wanying bit her lip, "Don't forget, I am Zhou Shifeng's deceased wife!"
Fu Jingshu stopped abruptly.
That name, for him, was indeed a tremendous blow. Lu Wanying couldn't help but smile triumphantly, "Jingshu, I only want one wedding dress. Buy it for me, and I promise I won't cause trouble or break you two up."
Fu Jingshu turned and gave her a cold look.
But Lu Wanying knew that he had compromised.
