Chapter 922 Wedding

Gu Wanqiu curled her lips. The person in the mirror looked even more beautiful. She turned her gaze to the window. Quite a few people had come today. The housekeeper and servants were all busy preparing the wedding venue, blowing up balloons, arranging colored lights, preparing bouquets, rolling out the red carpet, and even boxes and boxes of fireworks...

Seeing how busy they were, Gu Wanqiu wanted to tell them to stop working, as it was uncertain whether Li Jinxing would be able to come back by then.

After the makeup artist finalized the look, she carefully removed the makeup from her face. Before leaving, she specifically told her to have a good rest and be the most beautiful bride waiting for Li Jinxing to marry her.

Gu Wanqiu lowered her head and looked at the diamond ring on her ring finger. She took out her cell phone and called Li Jinxing. However, no one answered the call from yesterday until now and the call could not be connected.

Li Jinxing decided that the wedding venue would be the church, where the two would take their vows.

When Gu Wanqiu heard him say that he wanted to hold the ceremony in the church, she almost couldn't help laughing, and she sneered in her heart.

The church is such a sacred place. How many people pray there? How many people’s hopes does it carry?

Li Jinxing actually dared to take her there to hold a ceremony, not afraid of desecrating such a place, and swear in front of the priest there, "I love you, and I will never leave you no matter what happens." Isn't it a great irony?

To be frank, the relationship between them was a sham. How could two people without sincerity be worthy of appearing in a church and making promises? Those vows simply couldn't bear the weight of it.

At 5 p.m. on April 14, a piece of news appeared online that the Haicheng Li Group was suspected of money laundering crimes and the police would conduct a large-scale investigation starting today.

This news spread like wildfire. Before it was dark, earth-shaking changes had taken place in Hai City. People were afraid of being implicated, and for a time they were in a panic, some fled, some ran away.

It is said that Li Jinxing is half a king in Haicheng. When he stomps his feet, the ground will shake. This is really true.

Li Jinxing was able to accomplish in such a short period of time what others could not accomplish in several lifetimes. He established himself at a young age and made it onto the rich list. He was involved in both the black and white worlds, and while seemingly making good money, he was actually corrupting others.

Nowadays, who among those of their stature hasn't committed a few dirty, illegal things? When they become powerful, they think they're not bound by the law, doing whatever they want and looking down on others.

As the saying goes, a tall tree attracts the wind. There are countless people who want to overthrow him, just like Gu Chaodong in the past.

In the manor, the servants also saw the news and began to prepare to pack up and leave. If the butler had not stopped these people to negotiate for their wages, they would have left long ago.

In the entire manor, the butler and Li Jinxing have the closest connection. Gu Wanqiu stood at the second-floor window and watched the butler arrange the entire scene in an orderly manner. He probably guessed in his heart that the butler and Li Jinxing should also have a connection.

It was impossible not to feel panicked. Even though the entire network had announced Li Jinxing's death, Gu Wanqiu's heart still hadn't completely settled down. She knew this man too well. He was cunning and scheming. What she could think of, Li Jinxing might be able to do as well. What if he had a back-up plan...

Seeing that the housekeeper was still decorating the wedding venue, Gu Wanqiu's heart tightened and her hands subconsciously clenched the curtains.

April 15th is an auspicious day.

Gu Wanqiu stayed awake all night. She stared at the tablet in her hand and looked at the red dot on the edge of Haicheng. She knew that Li Jinxing was back.

She gave out her location. Logically, she should have been able to catch Li Jinxing based on the location, but why was he still able to appear in Haicheng?

The only possibility is that the tiger is lured away from the mountain, and the location shown is not Li Jinxing's whereabouts.

At six o'clock in the morning, when it was just light, the bedroom door was opened and a large group of people came in. They were the stylists and makeup artists from the previous two days.

"Miss Gu, we are here to put on your makeup."

"The groom is not coming back, do I still need to put on makeup to get married?"

The stylist didn't pay much attention to Gu Wanqiu's attitude which was different from the previous two days.

"We are here on the orders of Butler He." None of them spoke much to Gu Wanqiu. After waking her up, they pushed her in front of the dressing table and asked her to sit down. There were people all around her, and it seemed as if she was tied here with ropes and could not move.

Several people had already done her makeup and arranged her hairstyle before. After they got familiar with her face, they worked very quickly and completed her makeup and hair in an hour. Then she changed into her wedding dress.

Normally, the first set of wedding attire should be a Chinese wedding dress, and she should wait here for the bride to come, but the stylist directly changed her into the wedding dress for the church.

After she changed her clothes, these people did not leave, but quietly guarded her. The servants in the manor also stood outside the door, as if they were worried that she would run away.

Gu Wanqiu subconsciously clutched the hem of her skirt, feeling a little uneasy.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the sound of propellers came from the air, the wind was blowing, the curtains were all opened, and looking out, you can see everything outside. You can see a helicopter in the air, and it is slowly landing at this time. As expected, the person inside is Li Jinxing. He came to "welcome the bride", and even though he is being chased by the police, he did not forget to hold this wedding.
