Chapter 822: 822

The elderly couple stood facing each other with a look of bitterness and great resentment on their faces .





The bank simply wouldn’t allow their sudden request for withdrawal of 8 . 88 million dollars in cash .

The gift had come too late to be on time for this .

Now, they were unable to get 9 . 99 million for the dowry overnight .

Moreover, returning the 8 . 88 million check as part of the dowry would not look good .

Even if everyone knew that the 9 . 99 million dowry included a monetary gift of 8 . 88 million dollars by the Shen family, a family that was more particular would find that embarrassing .

What could they do now then?

Xia Nuannuan understood the plight her parents were facing and her heart ached for them .





She said, “Dad, Mom, actually you really don’t have to fret . The marriage is something between Zihao and I, and has little to do with dowry and monetary gifts . ”

Dad Xia frowned and said, “Nonsense! The dowry that accompanies you into the Shen family signifies that our daughter does not lack anything and is not dependent on his family . This is so that you can stand tall and proud!”

At this point he grunted and sighed again . “I think I shall take a walk and think of a solution . ”

Sensing his frustration, Xia Nuannuan bit her lip .

Her father had never been to Beijing, what sort of solution could he find here?

She said, “Dad, let me think of a solution . ”





It was already 9 p . m . when Qiao Lian received a call from Xia Nuannuan .


The skies had darkened . She was startled when she looked at her cell phone screen .

The wedding was the next day . Something must have happened for Xia Nuannuan to be calling so late at night .

After she picked up the call, Xia Nuannuan explained the situation and finally said, “I have a check here for 8 . 88 million and I can’t cash it . But I have no other friends in Beijing…”

By now she was at her wits’ end and it showed on her face .

Qiao Lian was most understanding and said to her, “Don’t panic . Let me talk to Shen Liangchuan, I’m sure there’s a solution . ”

Without hanging up, she walked to his study .





Because of the urgency of the situation, she entered the room without knocking .

She saw him sitting on a chair, staring at a vial of pills in his hand .

Stunned for a moment, she finally stepped forward and asked, “What are the pills for?”

Shen Liangchuan looked at her and for a fraction of a second, there was a flash of panic in his eyes . Then, very quickly, he put the vial back into his drawer calmly and steadily . He said, “Vitamins . You’re here to look for me? What’s the matter?”

After this quick change of topic, Qiao Lian spoke at once . She pointed at the cell phone and told him about Xia Nuannuan’s situation .

He stood up and picked up his jacket . “Tell her I’m coming over right now . ”

After hanging up, they went to the hotel . She took a long look at Shen Liangchuan . She realized that he was the sort of person that was cold on the outside but warm on the inside .

Although he didn’t think highly of Shen Zihao, when it came to his wedding, he would readily help Xia Nuannuan to think of a solution . For sure, he was doing this for the sake of Shen Zihao .

With Shen Liangchuan coming to the rescue, in no time a check of 9 . 99 million in Xia Nuannuan’s name was issued .

Even though Dad Xia felt really bad about this, he was truly grateful towards Shen Liangchuan .

After Shen Liangchuan and Qiao Lian had left, Dad Xia looked straight at Xia Nuannuan and gave her his earnest and most sincere advice, “The way I see it, that stepmother in the Shen family is difficult to ward off . In the future, try to keep frequent contact with Shen Zihao’s real mother . After all, they are blood-related . If there came a time you two ever need any help, perhaps his own mother and brother would be the only people you could turn to . ”
