Chapter 526
The feud between An Nuan and Gu Yan Sheng ran deep, and everyone in Qing City and even the entire North Wen Country knew about it.
Everyone believed that they were as separate as rivers and lakes, so how could An Nuan possibly show up at Gu Yan Sheng's wedding?
It was simply unthinkable.
That's why the media reporters were all so excited.
Everyone was thrilled, sensing there was a major news story to report.
When facing the reporters, An Nuan remained composed, not refusing their interviews, but instead standing before the reporters blocked by security guards, calmly accepting their questions.
"Miss An, are you here to attend Mr. Gu's wedding?" the reporter asked eagerly.
"What else?" she replied.
"With such deep conflicts between you two, would Mr. Gu invite you to his wedding?" the reporter asked in astonishment.
An Nuan smiled, "It's just business competition, not as fiery as everyone thinks. Our personal relationship isn't that bad. Regardless, as the four major families, we've always been united and friendly. For the Gu Family's grand wedding, inviting people from other families to the banquet is not inappropriate."
"But I heard that aside from the Xia Family, the Gu Family didn't invite the Ye Family or the An Family," the reporter raised a question.
"The Ye Family wasn't invited, probably because Ye Jinghuai is currently embroiled in a lawsuit, so the Gu Family has some concerns. I believe everyone should understand, and the Ye Family understands too, since Gu Yan Sheng is marrying the daughter of an elite family, they have to avoid impropriety." An Nuan answered smoothly, "As for our family, the Gu Family did invite us, but my parents' health wasn't good, so I'm here representing them."
"Really?" the reporter seemed unconvinced.
"Gu Yan Sheng is actually much more magnanimous than you think. Putting aside my relationship with Ye Jinghuai, Gu Yan Sheng and I grew up together. Back then, when we couldn't be together, it now seems like fate toying with us. But that's all in the past, and now we've both found our own places. The past is just smoke and clouds dissipating." An Nuan kept praising Gu Yan Sheng.
"Mr. Gu is really so generous," the reporter couldn't help but exclaim.
They never expected that after all the humiliation An Nuan suffered from him before, he could still let bygones be bygones.
Such a person is bound to achieve great things in the future!
"If there are no other questions, I'll go in and congratulate the newlyweds," An Nuan said as she prepared to leave.
"Miss An, wait!" Another reporter called out loudly.
An Nuan stopped in her tracks.
"About your husband Ye Jinghuai being detained for crimes recently, can you share any updates on the situation?" the reporter asked quickly.
An Nuan knew the reporters would ask such questions, so she was well prepared.
"Ye Jinghuai's case is quite complicated. The police are still further investigating, and I don't actually know the exact court date either, as they haven't given me a clear answer. As for whether Ye Jinghuai really committed any crimes..." An Nuan paused deliberately, seeming to have some emotional fluctuation.
All the reporters looked at her expectantly.
They wanted to find out some inside information from An Nuan.
"I believe Ye Jinghuai is innocent," An Nuan stated with certainty.
"But based on the evidence exposed so far, Ye Jinghuai's crimes seem quite obvious," the reporter pressed.
"Before the court rules Ye Jinghuai guilty, no one can say he is guilty, so please don't jump to conclusions," An Nuan's tone became heavier.
The reporter knew they couldn't get anything more, so they quickly changed the topic, "Miss An, do you have anything to say about Mr. Gu's wedding? After all, you and Mr. Gu were once an admired couple back then."
"As I said, that was back then. Now we each have our own lives. Aside from wishing them well, I have nothing else to say."
"Didn't you ever regret it, Miss An? No matter what happened between you two before, at least now, Mr. Gu seems better than Ye Jinghuai. And Mr. Gu has now found such a perfect wife. Aren't you jealous at all?" The reporter's questions were becoming sharper.
There's always one or two fearless media outlets that would deliberately say some provocative words.
An Nuan remained calm. She smiled, "I'm only happy for Gu Yan Sheng to have found his happiness. I have no regrets or jealousy. In fact, I'm very pleased for him. After we broke up, it took Gu Yan Sheng a long time to emerge from the shadows. Now that I see him coming out again, I only feel relieved, like a weight has finally been lifted from my heart."
"Miss An, you really don't feel even a bit of loss? You also said it took Gu Yan Sheng a long time to get over losing you. Now that he loves someone else, as a woman, don't you have any vanity at all?"
"No," An Nuan answered directly. "If I can love another man again, why can't Gu Yan Sheng love another woman? I'm not that hypocritical! And I'll say it again, I'm only here to give my blessings today."
"Miss An..."
"I'm sorry," An Nuan gave a slight bow, appearing very polite. "It's getting late, I should head inside."
Leaving those courteous words behind.
An Nuan went straight through the hotel's main entrance.
Inside was the grand lobby, with a long red carpet in the middle surrounded by fresh flowers, looking like a dream.
An Nuan walked confidently down the red carpet, step by step.
When she was halfway down, An Nuan smiled slightly.
She saw Gu Yan Sheng, dressed in a black suit, clearly having made an effort to groom himself today, looking more energetic and with a slightly improved demeanor than usual.
He strode towards An Nuan and pulled her off the red carpet, leading her into the side pedestrian passage.
"Have you gone insane?!" was the first thing he exploded with, in a muted but furious voice.
Of course, he kept his voice down.
Facing Gu Yan Sheng's rage, An Nuan remained serene.
It seemed he had just received the news of her arrival and immediately came out to block her.
She calmly said, "I just came to congratulate you."
"An Nuan, what kind of game are you playing!" Gu Yan Sheng tightly gripped An Nuan's arm, clearly increasing the pressure, causing An Nuan's brows to furrow in pain.
Ignoring the pain in her arm, An Nuan bluntly said, "I'm not playing games. I just came to see what this woman you spoke so highly of looks like."
"You think I'll let you in!" Gu Yan Sheng interrogated her harshly.
"If you don't let me in, it's fine, I'll just leave," An Nuan said nonchalantly. "But just now, in front of the reporters, I said we've let go of the past and are still friends. If you chase me away now, what do you think the media will think of you? Won't they think you're being petty?"
