Chapter 184: Are You Jealous?
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Jin Nian was not familiar with the people from the Lu family, so she didn’t feel the need to go over and greet them. Instead, she sat quietly in her seat, taking photos with her phone.
After a while, Jin Nian felt like she was just taking random pictures. She stood up and went to the dressing room to find Yu Feifei.
Even though Jin Nian wasn’t Yu Feifei’s bridesmaid, as the bride’s best friend, she didn’t feel out of place standing beside her.
There was still some time before the auspicious moment for the wedding, so Yu Feifei was feeling a bit bored in the dressing room and started chatting with Jin Nian.
Yu Feifei asked, “Have you seen the relatives from the Lu family?”
Jin Nian nodded.
Yu Feifei continued, “Aren’t they all very good-looking, even compared to models and actors?”
Jin Nian nodded again.
Yu Feifei then said with a meaningful tone, “That girl named Lin Yuan has a good relationship with several of the Lu family’s brothers. I’ve interacted with her before, and she’s indeed a girl with a good personality. But based on my intuition, 1 think Lin Yuan has a crush on Lu An.”
Jin Nian’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, but she pretended not to care and simply replied, “1 see.”
Yu Feifei asked, “Why do you react like that?”
Jin Nian replied, “If Lin Yuan likes Lu An, what does that have to do with me?”
Yu Feifei pressed further, “Can’t you be a bit more cautious?”
Jin Nian shook her head.
Yu Feifei looked somewhat disdainful and said, “Are you two just a superficial couple?”
Jin Nian nodded.
“Are you jealous?” Yu Feifei teased.
Jin Nian denied, “No, I’m not.”
However, Jin Nian’s words contradicted her true feelings. When she heard the name Lin Yuan, she couldn’t help but replay the scene in her mind of the lovely girl naturally hooking her arm around Lu An’s. In reality, it was just a simple gesture, holding an arm, and not an intimate or private act. But for some reason, Jin Nian found it unsettling.
She muttered to herself, “Stinky Lu An! Bad Lu An! He stinks and is so bad! I’ve never seen such a stinky and bad guy!”
The auspicious moment for the wedding arrived, and the emcee invited the guests back to their seats. The wedding ceremony officially began.
Jin Nian returned to her seat, and she soon realized that Lu An had taken a seat beside her. He now wore an additional suit jacket, giving him a more formal appearance.
Jin Nian knew that Lu An was sitting next to her, but she chose not to acknowledge him. Instead, she busied herself with her phone, swiping aimlessly on the screen before opening her photo album. She clicked on the picture she had taken of Lu An, which was quite flattering. Lu An looked very handsome in the photo.
However, in a fit of awkwardness, she deleted the photo of Lu An.
“Don’t delete it. Isn’t it a good shot?” Lu An’s voice came from beside her. He casually draped his arm over her other shoulder, making it look as if he were pulling her into an embrace.
“You know how to appreciate yourself,” Jin Nian retorted.
Lu An playfully took Jin Nian’s phone and effortlessly restored the deleted photo. He then said abruptly, “Look at the suit Lu Feng is wearing. Your hubby would undoubtedly look ten thousand times more handsome in it. Do you believe me?”
Jin Nian glanced at Lu An and replied, “I believe you. You’re the most handsome and the most incredible, right?”
Lu An chuckled and ruffled Jin Nian’s soft hair. “Why aren’t you in a good mood? Who upset you again?”
Jin Nian was about to respond when she heard a clear female voice nearby, speaking in Cantonese, “Lu An, why don’t you introduce the beauty next to you?”
Lu An certainly intended to introduce Jin Nian. He wished to introduce Jin Nian to the entire world. However, even without his introduction, his friends and family could discern how significant Jin Nian was to him.
Lin Yuan, right in front of them, understood this very well.
Lin Yuan scanned the surroundings and immediately noticed that Lu An treated the girl beside him differently. His eyes conveyed deep concern. She quickly realized that this girl was the one Lu An had been thinking about.
Lin Yuan and Lu An had a strong friendship, and their tastes were similar. As a non-straight woman, when Lin Yuan assessed Jin Nian, her eyes were filled with admiration.
Jin Nian seemed to align perfectly with Lin Yuan’s aesthetic preferences.
Jin Nian’s large innocent eyes gave her the appearance of a cute and delicate rabbit. There were always some big bad wolves with ulterior motives who wanted to swallow such a small rabbit in one bite. Even if they didn’t devour it, it would be fun to catch it and play with it in their palms.
When Lu An noticed Lin Yuan’s gaze, he couldn’t sit still any longer. He tried to block Lin Yuan’s line of sight with his body and said impatiently, “Don’t be so disrespectful. Call her sister-in-law.”
Lin Yuan sat down right next to Jin Nian, staring at her intently. She smiled and introduced herself briefly in Mandarin, “Sister-in-law, I’m Lin Yuan, Lu An’s good friend from Canada..”
