After Jiang Xiao made up her mind, she lay down on the bed, temporarily setting the issue aside.
By now, Kuang Yunxian and Du Jinruo’s wedding banquet should have started, right?
She didn’t know if it was really that lively and joyful.
However, what she didn’t know was that at the moment in the Capital City Grand Hotel’s hall, Kuang Yunxian and Du Jinruo’s wedding banquet was being quite awkward due to Gao Wei leading Nian Mutong’s arrival.
"Xiao Ruo, congratulations, it’s your big day today."
Gao Wei held Nian Mutong’s hand as they approached Du Jinruo.
Nian Mutong slightly bowed her head, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Because she was also wearing a festive red dress.
Standing in front of Du Jinruo like this somewhat stole her thunder.
Moreover, the gemstone necklace around her neck was even more dazzling; Du Jinruo saw it and recognized it. How could she not know it was what Madam Gao had planned to give to her daughter-in-law?
Previously, when she visited the Gao Family as a guest, Madam Gao had shown her the Sapphire Necklace.
Back then, she thought she wouldn’t be swayed by such a necklace.
But now that Nian Mutong was wearing the necklace in front of her, it made her feel bullied and provoked.
She had thought she and Nian Mutong were friends.
She had sent Nian Mutong an invitation, only to be repaid by this?
The guests were already gossiping about them.
"Who’s the girl beside Young Master Wei? She’s really pretty, no less beautiful than Du Jinruo."
"If you ask me, she seems a few years younger than the Du Family’s Daughter?"
"Wasn’t it said that Gao Wei was very infatuated with Du Jinruo? It seems he now has someone else?"
"But, if he really has such a pretty panion, it might not be any worse than marrying Miss Du."
Du Jinruo was indeed furious inside.
She looked at Nian Mutong.
"Mutong, what’s going on with you now? Did you bring Gao Wei to disrupt my wedding?"
"Jinruo, I, I didn’t...." Nian Mutong shrank her neck, feeling guilty.
"Oh, right," Gao Wei wrapped his arm around Nian Mutong’s shoulder, smiled, and said, "Today is not only your big day, but also ours. Xiao Tong and I have registered, and we are husband and wife."
"What?"
Du Jinruo and Kuang Yunxian were both shocked.
"Mutong, is what he’s saying true?"
Nian Mutong nodded frantically, still somewhat dazed and unable to fully process it.
Earlier, Gao Wei had asked her to go home and fetch her household registration and ID card, then took her to the photo studio, and even bought her a gold ring at a Silver Pavilion, saying he was going to take her to register.
She was so stunned that she initially wanted to refuse, but Gao Wei’s next two sentences immediately made her forget how to refuse.
"As long as you marry me, you’ll be the Gao Family’s daughter-in-law. Do you know how high your status will be?"
"As long as we get married, the gemstone necklace around your neck will be yours, and you won’t have to give it back to my mom."
Upon hearing these two sentences, Nian Mutong followed him to register in a stupor.
Now, she had bee Gao Wei’s wife.
This was something Nian Mutong never imagined would happen.
Du Jinruo staggered.
She looked at Gao Wei, gritting her teeth, and said, "Gao Wei, what is this supposed to mean? Did you marry so hastily just to spite me? Have you ever considered how it might harm Nian Mutong? Also, have you thought about whether Uncle Gao and Aunt would agree?"
