At the wedding venue, just as the wedding was about to start, Lin Yuyan couldn't hold her nerves any longer. "Beichen, why isn't Wei Lan here yet?"
Mo Beichen, however, was completely unfazed. "Don't worry. I just talked to her on the phone. She said she's on her way."
"She's so irresponsible. Why didn't she come earlier?" Lin Yuyan grumbled.
The venue was filled with guests, all eagerly waiting. But they only saw Mo Beichen, and Xia Weilan was nowhere to be seen. The guests started whispering among themselves.
Lin Yuyan's face darkened. She stole a glance at the time and saw that there were only five minutes left. Her palms started to sweat.
Liu Yinyin looked at Lin Yuyan's anxious face and curled her lips. She loved seeing Xia Weilan make a fool of herself. It would be even better if Xia Weilan didn't show up at all.
But just when there was only one minute left, the door was pushed open. All eyes turned to the door, and everyone was stunned by the person who walked in.
The person who walked in didn't look like an ordinary person but more like a celestial being descending from the clouds.
Xia Weilan was dressed in a flowing wedding dress. She looked like a pure and innocent maiden. Holding the hem of her dress with one hand, she walked in carefully. Her eyes, as bright as a sprite's, scanned the crowd and then landed on Mo Beichen. She gave a faint smile and walked in gracefully.
Lin Yuyan was also momentarily stunned and then let out a sigh of relief. Xia Weilan was so good at timing. She came just in time. Lin Yuyan's heart was pounding.
Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen walked to the priest together. The whole venue fell silent as they listened to their vows.
"Now, it's time for the bride and groom to exchange rings," the priest announced.
As soon as the priest finished speaking, a small figure came up, holding two rings. It was Xiao Chun, dressed in a princess dress. She walked up to the two of them, looked up, and handed them the rings.
Xia Weilan winked at Xiao Chun playfully. Her cute gesture even melted the hearts of those who were watching the live broadcast.
Ouyang Mingqi also saw all this. He had sent someone to lure Xia Weilan away, but somehow she managed to escape.
At this moment, Ouyang Mingqi, who was drinking red wine, hoping to see Mo Beichen make a fool of himself, couldn't even force a smile.
Why? Why was Mo Beichen so happy, receiving everyone's attention? He had worked so hard, but in the end, he was bankrupted by Mo Beichen.
Ouyang Mingqi's face was as terrifying as a ghost. His secretary, Liu, who had just walked in, was startled.
"Sir, we just received a call. Miss Ruo Lin is eager to see you," Secretary Liu said.
"Don't let her in," Ouyang Mingqi said impatiently.
"Sir, but Miss Xia Ruo Lin is about to give birth. The doctor said we should try to meet her wishes during this period," Secretary Liu added.
"Fine. Tell her I'll go there later. That useless woman has caused me so much trouble," Ouyang Mingqi said.
Ouyang Mingqi thought that if he had known Xia Ruo Lin would be so troublesome, he would never have married her. Now, even if the child was born, the son would be the son of a criminal, carrying this stigma for the rest of his life.
On the other side, in an apartment, the wedding was being broadcast live on TV. The bride and groom hugged each other in the applause of the crowd and then walked down happily, receiving everyone's congratulations.
"What rubbish!" Xia Ruo Lin angrily threw the remote control on the ground. Still not satisfied, she started throwing whatever she could get her hands on.
"Why? Why am I so miserable while Xia Weilan is so happy!"
Why indeed?
On TV, the handsome groom was still walking on the red carpet, waving to the camera. It seemed as if he was deliberately showing off to Xia Ruo Lin, which made her even angrier.
In the room, Xia Ruo Lin was making a lot of noise by throwing things. But after a long time, no one came in to stop her. Finally, she slumped on the sofa, looking at the mess on the ground. Then she took out her phone and kept calling Ouyang Mingqi.
Mo Beichen took Xia Weilan to toast the guests table by table.
Finally, they came to Mo Donglin and Liu Yinyin's table.
"Congratulations, little brother," Mo Donglin raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Liu Yinyin was reluctant but had to drink. With so many people watching, she couldn't refuse. So she drank the toast with a strange look on her face and then angrily slammed the glass on the table.
"Yinyin, are you drunk?" Mo Donglin had to make an excuse for her.
Liu Yinyin drank silently, not saying a word. All the people at this table were close relatives of the Mo family. They didn't understand what was wrong with Liu Yinyin, so they pretended not to see.
But Mo Donglin knew the reason why Liu Yinyin was acting like this.
Not long after, Liu Yinyin got drunk. Her eyes were hazy, but she still remembered that Mo Beichen was getting married. She couldn't help but mutter, "It's a pity. Why did he get married?"
Since childhood, Mo Beichen had been her idol.
Liu Yinyin's pitiful words were mumbled, and only Mo Donglin could hear them.
Mo Donglin's face darkened. He leaned over and whispered in Liu Yinyin's ear, "Don't make a fool of yourself anymore."
Liu Yinyin glared at Mo Donglin and said without hesitation, "If you help me ruin this wedding, I'll help you get back to Mo Ying Group."
Mo Donglin was really angry this time. He secretly squeezed Liu Yinyin's wrist hard. This time, half of Liu Yinyin's drunkenness was sobered up by the pain. When she looked at Mo Donglin again, she saw his blood - red eyes filled with anger.
This was the first time Liu Yinyin had seen Mo Donglin so angry. She was stunned and didn't even dare to cry out in pain. She looked at Mo Donglin timidly.
"Donglin, what's wrong with you?" Liu Yinyin asked fearfully.
If it weren't for the relatives being present, Mo Donglin would have wanted to wake up this heartless woman. He suddenly shook off her hand and started drinking silently.
The atmosphere at this table suddenly became extremely cold. Mo Donglin's face was really ugly.
Liu Yinyin finally calmed down. She didn't dare to drink or talk nonsense anymore.
When the wedding was over, Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen took the wedding car back to the villa.
As soon as they arrived at the door, Xiao Chun yawned. The butler immediately picked her up. "Little miss, I'll take you to the room in the West Garden to rest tonight."
"Okay," Xiao Chun answered without hesitation and waved to Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen.
Mo Beichen took Xia Weilan's hand and led her into the hall.
In the hall, there were no servants at all. They had all disappeared, leaving the newly - weds alone.
In the room decorated in red everywhere, Mo Beichen looked at Xia Weilan, while Xia Weilan felt a bit embarrassed and turned to look at herself in the mirror.
"You look stunning today!" Mo Beichen took a step closer to her.
In the mirror, Xia Weilan was wearing beautiful jewelry on her head. Her wedding dress was floating gently. Her pink lips and cheeks were like a rosy cloud, looking so charming and inviting.
Her shy look even broke Mo Beichen's usual calmness. He reached out his hand a little eagerly and started to remove the hairpins on her head one by one.
The atmosphere was silent and sweet, and there was even a faint smell of hormones in the air, making Xia Weilan a bit unsteady on her feet.
Xia Weilan composed herself and then took the initiative to unbutton Mo Beichen's shirt.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Sir!"
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door several times. The butler's voice came from outside.
