After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband
Chapter 21

"Alright." After hesitating for 2 minutes, An Yanyuan agreed.

He hesitated because his family was really not used to being high-profile.

The only reason he didn't hesitate anymore was because he didn't want his wife to really suffer outside.

In this lifetime, he really hadn't given Li YaJu anything. Even their wedding back then was low-key because of his mother's dissatisfaction with Li YaJu.

Ever since then, he had never held any banquets for Li YaJu.

Her birthdays, their wedding anniversaries, were all spent quietly at home.

He really didn't expect that their family's warmth would make outsiders misunderstand Li YaJu like this.

When he thought about it carefully.

Ever since they got married.

Not to mention what outsiders thought of Li YaJu, even his mother and sister-in-law looked down on Li YaJu with disdain.

Previously he didn't want to provoke any family conflicts.

But it really was too unfair to Li YaJu.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

An Yanyuan said, "On your mum's 50th birthday that day, I will definitely make her the happiest woman in the world!"

"I knew my dad loved my mum very much." An Nuan said happily, "I'll take care of the banquet arrangements. Dad just has to give mum a surprise according to my arrangements that time."

"Alright." An Yanyuan still had 100% trust in his daughter, "But don't overwork yourself."

"Don't worry." An Nuan smiled brilliantly, "On mum's birthday, I will definitely make you and mum the highlights of the event, no, the highlights of the entire nation!"

"I'll listen to you on everything." An Yanyuan had a doting expression.

He was also rather looking forward to it.

"It's late, dad should sleep earlier."

"You should rest early too."

"Okay."

An Yanyuan went upstairs first.

An Nuan sat in the living room for a while.

Preparing this birthday banquet wasn't just to set a trap for Gu Yan Sheng, but also because she really didn't want her mother to suffer any longer.

All those years.

In the years she married Gu Yan Sheng.

Her mother was even looked down upon by Gu Yan Sheng's mother. Disdain could be heard in her words anytime towards her mother. But because she didn't want things to be difficult for her in the Gu family, her mother always endured it. And she herself, in order to be a good daughter-in-law, deliberately ignored her mother's grievances.

Thinking about it now, she really hated herself for it!

For a Gu Yan Sheng, she really lived without any sense of self!

An Nuan gnashed her teeth.

In this lifetime, she would never repeat the same mistakes again. She would definitely repay them doubly!

...

In a flash.

Half a month passed.

Tomorrow would be her mother's birthday banquet.

All the birthday banquet preparations were done secretly without her mother knowing.

She wanted to give her mother a surprise.

It was rare for someone to have a second 50th birthday. She must make her mother make up for all the regrets in the first half of her life.

After confirming the banquet details with the staff again, she had just gotten into her car to leave when she received a call from Ye Jinghuai.

It was rather unusual for this high and mighty character to take the initiative to call her.

One should know that in the past half month, they didn't have any contact at all.

Not only was there no communication with Ye Jinghuai, there was none with Gu Yan Sheng either.

Gu Yan Sheng was busy with a prestigious youth award evaluation these few days. He probably prepared a lot of materials and would also have to give a speech on site.

It was no wonder Gu Yan Sheng placed so much importance on it. This evaluation was a very prestigious event in North Wenguo. 80% of North Wenguo's rising politicians and people who embarked on official careers had obtained this title before.

So Gu Yan Sheng naturally devoted his all into it.

Once he was busy with his own matters, he definitely wouldn't pay any more attention to her.

Of course, she was glad for it instead.

After all, she didn't want to put on an act with Gu Yan Sheng at all.

As she drove, she answered the call, "Hello?"

"It's your mum's birthday tomorrow right?" Ye Jinghuai asked straight away.

"Did you receive an invitation?" An Nuan asked.

Today she had confirmed with the staff one-by-one that all the invitations were sent.

"I received it."

"Remember to come on time to attend."

"Let me give your future mother-in-law a birthday present." Ye Jinghuai said.

Future mother-in-law.

Why did it feel so... hard to articulate.

"No need." An Nuan steadied her emotions and said, "I've already prepared it."

"Oh?" Ye Jinghuai was a little surprised.

"You'll know when you come tomorrow." An Nuan deliberately didn't say.

Ye Jinghuai chuckled lightly and didn't ask further.

He said, "Free up some time to turn on the TV in a while."

"What for?"

"In half an hour's time."

"Hmm?"

"Remember to watch it." Ye Jinghuai hung up the call.

An Nuan frowned.

She looked at her phone, a little distracted.

What was this guy up to.

An Nuan didn't think too much about it. She drove directly to the largest jewellery store in Qingcheng.

As she walked in, she called Xia Qiqi, "Have you arrived?"

"Almost there, one minute away."

"Always late." An Nuan complained.

"Big sis, I'm already giving you a lot of face. I usually only get up at 12 noon. It's not even 11am but I'm already on the way. What more do you expect of me?"

"Drive safely, I'll wait for you."

"Then I'll hang up first."

An Nuan also put down her phone and was led by a service staff to the VIP suite of the jewellery store to enjoy the top-notch service.

"Miss An, please wait a moment. Our staff have gone to get the bridal crown for you. It'll be delivered soon." The service staff was respectful.

"Alright." An Nuan nodded while drinking coffee.

The moment she nodded, she suddenly recalled something.

She said, "Could you help me turn on the TV?"

The suite was equipped with a TV.

"Of course, please wait a moment." The service staff quickly agreed and swiftly turned on the TV for her, asking, "Is Miss An going to watch Mr Gu's live speech?"

An Nuan was startled.

She then remembered.

The prestigious youth award evaluation was today.

So just now when Ye Jinghuai asked her to watch TV, it was for her to watch Gu Yan Sheng's speech?!

From her memory.

Ye Jinghuai did not participate in this prestigious youth evaluation.

Ye Jinghuai's brilliance started from the second year after she married Gu Yan Sheng.

At the start, it was unstoppable.

However at this moment.

An Nuan saw on the TV screen that the on-site staff were introducing the list of nominees for this prestigious youth evaluation. The first name was none other than Ye Jinghuai.

The camera immediately zoomed in on Ye Jinghuai who was sitting in the first row below.

That devastatingly handsome face of his really had lethal power.

In that moment, even An Nuan was a little distracted looking at it.

"Damn! Why is this guy on the TV screen! And looking so freaking handsome!" Just then, Xia Qiqi's voice rang out from the doorway.

An Nuan looked back.

She turned to look at Xia Qiqi.

Looking at her still panting a little.

At this moment, she also seemed completely enraptured by the TV screen.

An Nuan explained, "North Wenguo's annual prestigious youth evaluation."

"The evaluation event you went to Qingtan Mountain to pray for Gu Yan Sheng last time?"

An Nuan gave a cold laugh.

She had already flushed that fortune pouch down the toilet.

Gu Yan Sheng was just like shit, both smelly and disgusting!
