Li Qingmu gently embraced Long Yue, resting his chin on her forehead, softly caressing her.
By rights, having one’s own woman still thinking of another man should make him angry, disgruntled, and indignant. Indeed, his gaze at Pei Jinheng monts ago was filled with those emotions, genuine and effective. But facing Long Yue now, he felt only heartache.
Yes, his heart ached for all the suffering she had endured, for the fact she had t an unworthy man.
But it was precisely because Pei Jinheng gave up that he could have Yue’er as a wonderful wife, and he was content!
"Bow to the high ancestors—"
"Haha, very good, rise, please!"
In the distance, the wedding continued, Pri Minister Pei was stroking his beard, satisfied with his gentle and virtuous daughter-in-law. Beside him was Mrs. Pei, who took out two pouches and handed them to the newlyweds.
"Husband and wife bow to each other—"
Long Yue raised her eyes and coldly watched the couple bowing to each other.
The good show was about to start, and Long Yue and Li Qingmu had already moved closer. As Pang Shuangyue bent down, Long Yue saw her slightly turn her head, using the mont when the wedding canopy tilted to flash her a smug smile.
Ha, smug indeed, for snatching her position, taking her fiancé, ruining her reputation. What in this world could be more triumphant?
Long Yue took a deep breath and clenched her fist.
"Ceremony complete, send them to the bridal chamber—"
Just as everyone joyfully prepared to escort the newlyweds to the bridal chamber!
"Wait—"
With a terrified voice suddenly ringing out, the crowd parted, revealing a disheveled and ragged man rushing in. Before anyone could react, he grabbed Pang Shuangyue’s leg.
"Little Yueyue, my Little Yueyue, how could you get married? How could you marry? You promised that if I helped you fra your sister, you’d elope with ! I risked my life doing it, but you didn’t keep your promise. You told to wait, and I waited, year after year, thinking my sincerity would make you co back, but instead... instead, you beco soone else’s wife, ah, why? Why are you so cruel to ?"
The man clung tightly to Pang Shuangyue’s leg, crying miserably, tears and snot streaming.
This scene shocked everyone!
The atmosphere in the hall beca stagnant, and everyone’s breathing grew rapid.
What... what is going on?
People chanically looked at Pang Shuangyue, who was dumbfounded by the sudden scene.
This... where did this beggar co from? Dirty dog dared to cling to her leg and cry on her luxurious gown?
"Ah, get away, who are you! How dare you disrespect ?"
Pang Shuangyue felt she was about to go crazy, her delicate body trembling with excessive excitent and anger, this brute, brute!
From the mont he ntioned framing Long Yue, she knew who he was. Her mind roared, as if exploding, but was imdiately filled with intense anger and fear!
Why? Damn it, why is he here, speaking these things? What’s he trying to do?!
Fear obscuring her mind, she scread and kicked the man’s chest with all her strength, using almost all her energy, yet she was just a weak woman and only knocked He Laosan away a bit.
He Laosan clung like sticky candy, tightly holding onto Pang Shuangyue, crying pitifully, "Little Yueyue, it’s , I am He Laosan? How could you forget ?"
He released his grip, tidied his dry, straw-like hair, revealing a dirty face, pointed to himself, "Little Yueyue, don’t you rember? Two years ago, right around this ti, your mother’s birthday, you made go into your sister’s room to disrespect her, to sully her. As long as I successfully ruined her, you’d promise to fly away with . You... have you forgotten?"
He Laosan tried to put on a deeply affectionate appearance, but facing a beauty like Pang Shuangyue, he didn’t need to act to be affectionate.
Even while looking at Pang Shuangyue, he was swallowing hard.
This behavior was truly disgusting to everyone watching!
As his words fell, the entire wedding scene plumted into a deadly silence!
Two years ago, Madam Minister Pang, Liu Bingxin’s birthday, invited many noble maidens and distinguished won to a banquet at her mansion. That evening, soone reported that Long Yue was secretly eting a lover behind the house. So, people went to catch them, and indeed found them together in her room.
Many people saw it at the ti, and those witnesses were present today!
He Laosan used this very appearance to embrace Long Yue years ago; now it seed everything repeated itself, only with a different target.
The old scene resurfaced, and these noble won instantly rembered the events from two years ago, many letting out a gasp.
Too scary, just too frightening, could things have been like this?
The Chief of Staff’s legitimate daughter wasn’t engaging in an affair, but being frad?
Of course, one’s a dignified Pri Minister’s legitimate eldest son, charming and promising, while the other is a filthy thug, dirty and sleazy, less than an ant. Anyone with sanity knows whom to choose, right?
Yet, at the sight of two people intimately clothed, everyone assud they were having an affair.
One couldn’t bla their ignorance; people only want to watch a spectacle. Whatever darkness or outcos there are, what does it matter to them?
When the public says one, I say one; when they say two, I echo two. Being a fence-sitter is easier, bearing no responsibility, avoiding any risk.
"How dreadful... too, too dreadful!"
"Is this true? No... can’t be? That beggar, we must inquire clearly!"
The noble ladies and daughters started their conversations, attending the wedding just for fun, as Pang Shuangyue climbed too high to reach, leaving flattery the only choice. But if a noblewoman were to fall from grace?
In an instant, many ladies rejoiced at her misfortune.
If there’s anything distressing, speak it out to make happy, oh hohohoho...
The won whispered and discussed as a figure suddenly pushed through the crowd, bursting into the wedding hall.
"Pang Shuangyue, you wretch! It was you, you! You vile person, framing ! Why, why did you do this? I am your sister, how could you be so cruel-hearted to fra ? Why..."
Long Yue rushed into the hall, crying out in sorrow and fury. After He Laosan’s intrusion, people grew vigilant, halting her forceful entry as two tall and strong servants seized her.
But Long Yue kept struggling, crying, "Pang Shuangyue, how could you ruin my reputation, spoil my chances of marriage, you... vile woman, may you die a bad death!"
