After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 52

An Nuan's heart beat faster as she looked at the man in front of her, Ye Jinghuai.

She had never seen him wear a white suit, neither in the previous life nor in this one.

His hair was neatly combed, every single strand, as if he had carefully groomed himself.

There wasn't a single crease on his clothes, making him appear more steady and mature than ever.

Even the way he was looking at her now carried a hint of...affection.

An Nuan unconsciously moistened her lips.

It was still the same Ye Jinghuai after all.

Yet at this moment, why did she feel like he had become a different person, as if he had been reborn.

Completely different from the usual Ye Jinghuai.

She calmed herself down and quietly adjusted her emotions until she became composed again.

Obviously, this was just an act, a performance they had agreed upon from the start.

She had thought Ye Jinghuai wouldn't come, so his sudden appearance still pleasantly surprised her after all.

She looked up at him.

At his eyes that hadn't left her face, that were still fixed on her.

His hand suddenly reached out in a handsome and carefree motion.

Qin Jiang who was below the stage immediately handed him a bouquet of red roses which he took in his hand.

The roses seemed to have diamonds on them, sparkling brilliantly under the lights.

Everyone was captivated by that dazzling bouquet.

So beautiful that it made every woman present tremble.

At that moment, An Nuan was also deeply attracted.

She felt that Ye Jinghuai would always bring unexpected surprises.

Completely different from Gu Yan Sheng.

Everything Gu Yan Sheng could think of and do was conventional. Even those so-called romantic acts, she could easily guess them with her eyes closed.

Now that she thought about it, Gu Yan Sheng had criticized her for being rigid and lacking passion.

And she equally disliked him for being inflexible and uncreative.

Indeed, it was only with comparison that there would be grievances.

She watched as Ye Jinghuai went down on one knee.

Her heartbeat seemed to become irregular again.

She watched the tall and handsome Ye Jinghuai half-kneeling before her.

It was as if the whole world had fallen silent.

Due to Ye Jinghuai's sudden action, the entire venue had also become pin-drop silent.

Fearing that even the slightest sound would affect the beautiful scene unfolding before them.

The scene before their eyes was truly picturesque.

He said, "An Nuan, marry me."

An Nuan bit her lip tightly.

She had to admit, her fingers were even trembling at that moment.

She hadn't actually expected Ye Jinghuai to go to such lengths.

In fact, as long as he came and casually asked her, she would marry him.

She released her tightly bitten lips, the corners of her mouth curving into a dazzling smile, stunningly beautiful.

She said, "Okay."

With just an "Okay", everyone present was stunned.

They felt that such a dramatic thing couldn't possibly happen in real life, yet it was unfolding among Qingcheng's most prominent aristocratic families.

The event they had come to attend was not a wedding banquet, but a big drama of the year!

An Nuan reached out to take the roses from Ye Jinghuai.

At that moment, it seemed Gu Yan Sheng finally reacted from the shock. He quickly went over to pull An Nuan away.

But in that instant, a big hand even faster wrapped An Nuan's entire body into his embrace, completely avoiding Gu Yan Sheng's approach. His speed was astonishing.

An Nuan didn't even know how she had fallen into Ye Jinghuai's arms.

Not just An Nuan.

Gu Yan Sheng was also stunned by the scene before him, unable to react for quite some time.

"Young Master Gu, please restrain yourself," Ye Jinghuai said as he hugged An Nuan in his arms, clearly displaying his ownership.

Gu Yan Sheng clenched his fists tightly.

He cursed An Nuan, "Have you lost your mind? You'd marry just anyone?"

"The third young master of the prominent Ye family, one of Qingcheng's four great families, who do you mean by 'just anyone'?" An Nuan's face darkened.

At that moment, she strangely disliked Gu Yan Sheng's contempt for Ye Jinghuai.

"Do you know what kind of person he is? Do you know how many women he has fooled around with? And you actually agreed to marry him! An Nuan, you'd better think clearly about what you're doing!" Gu Yan Sheng threatened in suppressed anger.

"Hypocrisy!" An Nuan ridiculed, "When you fool around with women, it's a mistake that all men make, but when Ye Jinghuai does it, it becomes a problem with his moral character?"

"How can you compare me to him?" Gu Yan Sheng gnashed his teeth.

"You're right, you can't be compared to him," An Nuan bluntly said, "Your nature is more malicious than his."

"An Nuan!" At that moment, Gu Yan Sheng really wanted to kill her.

Even if An Nuan didn't marry him, she couldn't marry another man so publicly.

This was a man's dignity.

Not to be violated!

"I do not allow this!" Wen QingCui suddenly spoke again.

An Nuan's face darkened.

Just as she wanted to retort, Ye Jinghuai gently covered her mouth with his hand.

An Nuan's heart stirred.

The warmth of his palm made her lips feel a wave of warmth.

So she still needed that little bit of support after all.

Just that she didn't dare hope for it.

And the intimacy of their action made Gu Yan Sheng's eyes burn with anger!

"Does Madam An have any dissatisfaction with me?" Ye Jinghuai asked humbly and politely.

Forming a sharp contrast against the currently furious Gu Yan Sheng.

How times have changed.

Ye Jinghuai used to be the prodigal playboy who accomplished nothing.

While Gu Yan Sheng was the gentle and accomplished young master.

In an instant, the images of the two had perfectly switched.

Ye Jinghuai now looked a hundred times nobler than Gu Yan Sheng!

"What is there for me to be satisfied about with you?" Wen QingCui showed her disdain for Ye Jinghuai.

"In terms of family background, is the Ye family not comparable to the prestigious An family?" Ye Jinghuai did not show any abnormal reaction to Wen QingCui's contempt. He maintained his humility.

Wen QingCui was rendered speechless.

The prominent Ye family was more than qualified to match the An family, way above the Gu family.

"In looks, do I fall far short of Gu Yan Sheng?" Ye Jinghuai continued asking.

It was widely known that Ye Jinghuai was the most handsome man in all of Qingcheng, without equal.

While without the pretense of his gentle image, Gu Yan Sheng could hardly be considered good-looking.

"In achievements, as far as I know, Gu Yan Sheng's greatest honor so far is Outstanding Youth of Beiwen Nation. And I, happen to share the same honor." Ye Jinghuai's magnetic voice carried a gentle tone.

Yet it left Wen QingCui speechless.

"In generosity, I was able to spend 30 million to buy the blue sapphire that An Nuan loves, while Gu Yan Sheng could only watch as someone else took away An Nuan's beloved gem."

At this point, it wasn't just Wen QingCui whose complexion changed, Gu Yan Sheng's did too.

"In scholarship, Gu Yan Sheng holds dual master's degrees from Beiwen Nation's top institution, while I hold dual master's degrees from the world's top institution." Ye Jinghuai raised his eyebrows, "Qin Jiang."

Qin Jiang immediately understood and quickly handed over Ye Jinghuai's degree certificates.

Ye Jinghuai passed them to Wen QingCui.

Wen QingCui did not take them, but still glanced at them.

She seemed disbelief that Ye Jinghuai would have such high credentials.

"Most importantly," Ye Jinghuai enunciated word for word, "I will only have An Nuan for the rest of my life, the one and only woman!"
