Some of the younger guests could not help but sneer and did not conceal their laughter, making Ren Wan Yun almost rush forward to reason with them. Just as she could not bear it any longer, Shen Yuan suddenly reached out to grab her arm and gently shook his head at her. Only then did Ren Wan Yun calm down. Shen Yuan withdrew his hand and his gaze landed on Shen Gui who was smiling flatteringly in the distance and there was a moment of haze in his expression.
"Number Two's actions are too shameful." Luo Xue Yan said in disdain, "Allow others to bully one's own daughter like this?"
"I originally thought that he was only greedy for riches and did not think that he would be so insane." Shen Xin shook his head and said in a disappointed tone, "How did Number Two become like this?"
"We are doing well but are despised at the same time. Really unlucky." Shen Qiu said unhappily.
At the other end, Shen Yue's family were also somewhat ashamed. Even though Shen Wan was also ambitious in his career, he was not as brazen as Shen Gui and Chen Rou Qiu held herself to be noble and virtuous because she was from a scholarly family. After all they were all Shen family and Shen Gui's attitude made them feel ashamed.
After Prince Yu humiliated Shen Gui, he seemed to be very satisfied with everyone's disdain towards the Shen family. When the husband and wife bowed to each other, he deliberately dragged out the time. One did not know if Shen Miao's eyesight was blurry but when the bride walked past them, her body seemed to be trembling.
When a Prince of First Rank married, even the nuptial chamber was saved. Shen Qing was pregnant and if there was any accident in the nuptial chamber, no one would be able to bear the crime of murdering an heir of the Imperial Family. After Shen Qing was sent to the nuptial chamber, Prince Yu was still outside feasting with the guests and drinking and having fun.
"Congratulations Your Highness Prince of First Rank." The ministers came up to toast.
"Same to Prince Yu." Prince Yu also replied. On the surface, Prince Yu was really happy today and actually shared the joy with the ministers but Shen Miao did not ignore the cold expression that he occasionally swept over.
Prince Yu had suffered a setback at her hands and would always think of getting it back. As their gazes came closer, Prince Yu raised his cup to him and suddenly made an obscene gesture as he licked his lips.
Shen Miao only looked at such a malicious expression calmly. It was Shen Qiu who was at the side who saw her staring at a distance and followed her gaze, "What is Younger Sister looking at?"
Prince Yu of the First Rank had already turned his head to drink with others and Shen Qiu did not see anything. Shen Miao stood up, "It is somewhat stuffy and I will go to the door to breathe."
"I'll go with you," Shen Qiu quickly said.
"No need. With Mo Qing and the rest guarding outside, I will not go far and will be at the door. "Shen Miao rejected him and got up to leave the table.
Prince Yu residence was very big and Mo Qing was standing guard in the garden outside. When he saw her coming out, he immediately followed. Shen Miao did not go far and stood at the same spot, looking at the Southwest corner of Prince Yu residence in a daze.
Then, a voice came from behind, "Fifth Sister."
Shen Miao turned her head back and did not know when Shen Yuan had followed and smiled at her.
Shen Yuan's smile was different from Fu Xiu Yi's gentleness and also different from Shen Qiu's simple and honest smile. It was not like Ji Yu Shu's mischievous smile. His smile seemed to contain other meanings, making one very uncomfortable. When he stared into other people's eyes, it was like a venomous snake sizing up its prey. That gloomy and cold aura lingered.
Shen Yuan was the most fearful opponent in the Second household of the Shen family.
"The banquet was only halfway and Fifth Sister came out on her own. I thought that Fifth Sister had some secret and wanted to play behind the Older Brothers' back." There was a hidden meaning in his words.
Shen Miao looked at the flowers in the garden. It was already the twelfth month of the winter and the previously flourishing flowers had long withered. The branches were bare and there was nothing left, only the heavy snow on the branches, giving off a cold and desolate feeling. She said, "Then why did Second Older Brother follow out? To peep at my secret?"
