Chapter 382: Thank you...
Chapter 382: Thank you…
Jianyu widened his eyes in shock as her soft lips invaded his. He rapidly blinked his eyes. His brain went completely blank, and he stood frozen on the spot.
Serena didn’t care about the horrified looks the guests were giving them.
“Oh, gosh! Who is that pregnant woman?”
“How can she so brazenly kiss Chen Jianyu?”
“Is she his girlfriend?”
“How can it be possible? She is pregnant. I didn’t hear any news about his relationship or that he was going to become a father.”
“Yes, and why would the Chen family hide about their heir if that was the case?”
Serena kissed him for a whole minute before she parted away.
Jianyu was shocked, silly. He was still staring at her in a daze.
Serena cheekily grinned. “You don’t have to thank me. I enjoyed it too.”
Jianyu snapped out. He finally realized that Serena actually kissed him in front of everybody.
“Don’t dare say you dislike it. I could practically see your lonely face, looking at the couples shamelessly enjoying themselves.”
Jianyu gritted his teeth. He didn’t know if he should be angry at her or be happy that his wish got fulfilled even though he refused to admit it to himself.
“You…you have gone too far, Serena!” Jianyu whispered.
Serena smiled. “Oh, really?”
Jianyu took a deep breath and grabbed her arm. “Come with me right now! Idiot!”
He dragged her away to which Serena let him, leaving the guests in a state of frenzy.
“Is it really true!? Chen Jianyu is dating?”
“That woman is pregnant. Oh, my God! Is it Chen Jianyu’s child?”
“That is such explosive news!”
Nana heard the commotion, but she couldn’t pay any attention to it. She buried her face in Jinhai’s chest. She thought that she completely lost her face tonight.
How am I supposed to face Mom and Dad and everyone again?
But when she raised her head, her eyes popped out of her sockets when, one by one, she saw all the elder couples kissing too. She was totally speechless. Her face turned scarlet as she saw them making out in front of everybody.
“What happened? T-that…Mom and Dad… everybody is…”
Jinhai chuckled. “Kissing.”
Nana glared at him. “I can see that! But why?”
“Let’s say I inspired all the husbands to be more romantic. I made their inner romanticism and shamelessness to awaken. Actually, you should take responsibility.”
Nana’s mouth twitched.
“You said you love me. It was so natural considering how we are…apart now. I couldn’t hold myself back.”
So, it’s my fault? Did I trigger this?
Jinhai’s sight fell upon the bouquet that Pei Yuan bought. His face darkened.
He called a maid and coldly ordered. “Throw them away.”
Nana asked, “What? Why? They are beautiful flowers.”
“They are beautiful flowers given by another man who likes you. How can I tolerate it? And I will give you even a better-no best bouquet than this.”
“You…why are you so domineering?”
Jinhai casually glanced at her and smiled. “You know that I am damn possessive about you.”
Nana blushed and looked away. “Let me go. You have not left any face for me to show anyone. Stupid. Idiot.”
From the side, Pei Yuan’s blood boiled in anger.
That bastard!
His face contorted in an ugly expression, looking at Jinhai and Nana kissing each other.
How dare you force yourself on her!
Pei Yuan couldn’t take it anymore. He went outside and dialed a number.
“Tang Feng. What is the status?”
“We have just reached the control room. We will play the tape in a few minutes.”
“Do it fast!”
Pei Yuan was hardly able to contain his fury. When he turned, and his gaze fell upon Liu Hai; he narrowed his eyes.
Liu Hai…You started everything. First, you snatched everything away from, and now your bastard son is following your footsteps. But not for long. Tonight will be the end of your reign.

Tang Ning and Tang Feng made their way to the control room but not before seeing Serena kiss Jianyu. They knew that she now carried his child.
When they looked at Jinhai and Nana, Tang Ning felt an urge to scratch that happiness off that faces.
Liu Jinhai, Nana…you destroyed my daughter’s life. You will have to pay it with yours!
They didn’t know what was in the tape that Pei Yuan gave them to play in the banquet. He only told them to play it when the banquet would be at its peak.
They reached the main control room, and as expected, Pei Yuan had already made the arrangements for them to sneak in easily.
Tang Feng said, “Let’s go, Ning.”
Tang Ning narrowed her eyes. “Yes, Feng. Let’s go.”

Outside the restroom, Chi Hua and Fang Che lost their faces to know that Huian was Shin’s girlfriend.
This bitch! Chi Hua cursed. Why does she have such good luck! First Liu Jinhai and now Liang Shin?
Shin even told Huian that she could slap them! That was so humiliating!
“E-excuse us…”
She quickly dragged Fang Che away with her.
Huian snorted and finally felt relieved. When she remembered how Shin called her baby, her face turned crimson again.
She felt a hand on her forehead. “Do you have a fever? You look all red.”
Shin frowned as he asked.
Huian wanted to cough three liters of blood.
It is because you called me like that! It’s not a fever!
Huian wanted to scream, but she couldn’t.
“N-nothing. It feels a little hot in here. And thank you for helping me out there. But you didn’t have to.”
Shin shook his head. “How can I not? They were clearly bullying you. Don’t suffer alone like that. Even if you made some mistakes, being divorced is not a shameful thing. If anything happens like that again…call me.”
Huian froze.
Shin’s words were simple, but it struck her heart hard. Tears pooled in her eyes, but she didn’t let them fall.
Strangely, she felt as if a huge burden was lifted off her chest when he said that he didn’t mind her divorce.
Even if she said to those women that divorced women had the right to have a second chance and be happy; reality was harsh. Indeed, people thought twice about considering a relationship with a divorcee.
So even if she wanted a happy life like Jinhai and Nana, she couldn’t see that future for herself. She wondered if any man would accept her with her past.
“Thank you…” Huian softly said.
