Upon hearing the words "send them to the bridal chamber," both of them froze, and couldn't help but mutter to themselves.

The Prince Ping's Mansion/Marquis Jing'an's Mansion shouldn't have the guts to pull off a substitution, right?

Surely not?

That's impossible!

Sitting on the new bed covered with fruits and melons, Jiang Xuelin was tense all over, and an ominous premonition was brewing in her heart.

Fu Hanlai sat down as instructed, his expression calm and composed, but his eyes were filled with confusion and disbelief.

When the wedding ceremonial token was handed to him, the cheers around him urged him to quickly lift the bride's veil so they could see what she looked like. Fu Hanlai's hands trembled.

...No way?

That shouldn't be possible, right?

His throat bobbed, and Fu Hanlai nervously swallowed, knowing that the die was cast and he had to lift the veil now. His hands trembled as he lifted the veil...

He had only lifted half of it when he noticed the familiar lower half of the face, and Fu Hanlai abruptly withdrew his hand.

"Young Master is too excited, look, his hands are trembling!"

This teasing remark was met with cheers and laughter from those around.

Fu Hanlai: "..."

You guys don't know anything!

I could recognize Jiang Xuelin just by looking at her chin!

No, no, no, you must be mistaken. Jiang Xuelin has already run away from her wedding, she definitely won't be here. You must be mistaken!

Swallowing hard again, Fu Hanlai steeled his resolve and quickly removed the bridal veil blocking Jiang Xuelin's view.

The reddish view in front of her finally cleared up a lot. Jiang Xue looked up and met Fu Han's eyes.

Fu Hanlai: "..."

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

The ominous premonition came true...

"It's you?!"

"It's you?!"

The guests, who were originally going to praise the bride's beauty, were momentarily speechless at the two people's unanimous words.

Why isn't it the other person? Didn't you two get married? Why do you look like you've seen a ghost when you see each other?!

"Didn't you run away from your wedding?!"

"Didn't you run away from your wedding?!"

So shocked were they that they forgot the occasion and exclaimed in surprise.

The guest, who had just put on a smile and was about to speak, was speechless.

The smile froze on his lips, and he fell into a deep silence.

Now it was their turn to be bewildered and confused.

—What's going on here?

Jiang Xuelin and Fu Hanlai were shocked. The others who were in the bridal chamber preparing to see the bride were also stunned, their worldviews shattered, and a million thoughts raced through their minds.

The nanny, who had been sent by the worried Princess Ping, overheard their conversation at the door and nearly collapsed.

The atmosphere in the new house became tense; no one spoke for a moment, and a deathly silence fell.
