"Give it to me?"
Cheng Shanshan found this statement ridiculous!
Liu Liu noticed something was wrong with her eyes and was afraid that she might hurt Ye Dong in a fit of anger, so she became extremely anxious.
But she didn't notice that Ye Dong's eyes were getting angrier and bulging veins on his forehead: "Liu Liu, are you even still a member of the Ye family?"
"Of course!"
Liu Liu answered matter-of-factly: "No matter how angry you are with me, whether you hit me or scold me, I will always be surnamed Ye!"
"Alright then."
Despite having a knife to his neck, Ye Dong stood tall and unyielding: "Then I, Ye Dong, hereby declare that the marriage between Liu Liu and Huo Mingchen is null and void!"
"..."
Everyone was filled with astonishment.
Liu Liu was stunned for a moment, her eyes filled with disbelief: "Big brother, what are you talking about?"
Ye Dong completely ignored Liu Liu's reaction: "As the eldest brother, I am fulfilling my duties as an elder and today I am announcing the engagement on behalf of my sister!"
Let alone anyone else, even Cheng Shanshan was surprised that Ye Dong would suddenly say something like, "If you say that, then things get interesting." Always eager for drama, she crossed her arms and looked at Liu Liu with amusement: "Since your older brother has said that, are you going to back down or not?"
Liu Liu panicked, tears welling in her eyes: "Big brother, you know, Brother Huo and I have already... have..." She didn't finish her sentence, but the implication was clear.
These words only made Ye Dong angrier, since losing one's virginity before marriage was extremely shameful: "Liu Liu, I've already given you a chance. If you continue to act this way, then I, Ye Dong, swear on the ancestors of the Ye family that I will never acknowledge you as my sister again!"
He spoke slowly and deliberately.
The air froze instantly.
Everyone present turned to look at Liu Liu.
Even Ye Xi, who usually disliked Liu Liu, realized that something was wrong: "Liu Liu, you can make a fuss all you want, but listen to your older brother."
"I……"
Liu Liu staggered back several steps, her face deathly pale: "Big brother, why are you forcing me like this?"
Ye Dong didn't speak, but just looked at her coldly: "You said I forced you, so I forced you. Now, are you going to come home with me?"
"..."
Liu Liu cried.
Large tears rolled down her cheeks.
Ye Dong stepped forward and extended his hand to him.
"sorry."
Just three words.
Liu Liu was already sobbing uncontrollably: "Big brother, I've already given my body to Brother Huo, and I'm carrying his child in my belly. I really can't go with you."
Once those words were spoken, there was no turning back.
Ye Dong withdrew his hand, his eyes filled with utter disappointment as he looked at her: "Since you've made your choice, that's fine." With that, he turned and left.
"Liu Liu, are you confused?!"
Ye Xi stomped her foot and then chased after him.
Liu Liu watched the two figures disappear into the distance, tears streaming down her face. After a moment, she suddenly looked up at Cheng Shanshan, her eyes filled with resentment: "Sister, are you satisfied now? Now I have nothing left! Is this what you wanted?!" She knew Ye Dong's temper; this time he was serious.
The thought of having no home made her heart ache so much she could hardly breathe!
Cheng Shanshan raised an eyebrow slightly: "Liu Liu, it seems you really don't understand me." As she spoke, she took out a white silk handkerchief and gently wiped away her tears before continuing: "I have a problem, which is that I hold grudges very much."
If you strike a snake three inches from its inch, you will be seriously injured.
She was no longer willing to tolerate such a shameless person, and this was just the beginning!
Liu Liu shuddered, feeling a chill creep down her spine: "What else do you want to do?"
"Nothing else."
Cheng Shanshan threw the handkerchief she had used to wipe her tears on the ground, then straightened up and looked at her with a contemptuous gaze: "Just give me the antidote first."
"Antidote...?"
Liu Liu subconsciously took out a bottle of medicine powder and gave it to her.
But he regretted it after giving it to her, since it was tantamount to admitting that he had poisoned her.
Cheng Shanshan had no intention of wasting any more words with her, so she took the things and left gracefully.
The room was left with only a bunch of people, all looking at each other, unsure whether to sympathize with Liu Liu or what to say.
However, what they knew was that if the eve of the wedding was this exciting, wouldn't the wedding itself be incredibly lively?
After having this idea, everyone was looking forward to it the next day!
...
Peace City.
The streets were deserted as everyone flocked to the area, and lanterns and decorations were everywhere.
This bustling scene stands in stark contrast to the poverty and desolation of the outside world.
Ever since Huo Mingchen brought down Prefect Dong and cured the medicine man, the people in the city have regarded him as a benefactor and a god.
He was now being promoted to the position of prefect by everyone, which should have been a joyous occasion, and he was also getting married, which was another joyous occasion. However, on this day of double happiness, Huo Mingchen showed no joy at all.
He stood alone at the doorway, his bright red robes unable to tint his features, instead adding to his sense of loneliness.
He looked into the distance, as if anticipating something.
But after thinking about it carefully, she gave up the idea. After all, someone as proud as her would never come.
As he pondered, someone behind him called out again, "Prefect Huo, the auspicious time has arrived."
"good."
Huo Mingchen responded with a single word.
Then he turned around and quickly walked inside.
When he appeared, everyone bowed and congratulated him.
Liu Liu, with her head covered by a red veil, was so nervous that her palms were sweating. At that moment, she thought about how happy she was to be able to marry the person she loved.
The officiant cleared his throat: "First bow to Heaven and Earth!"
Six times six times.
Huo Mingchen didn't move, but looked outside.
"Bowing to the parents twice."
But the Ye family didn't come; they only paid respects to the Huo family's memorial tablet.
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
"etc!"
Suddenly, a cold voice rang out.
The appearance of this sound invigorated everyone present!
In particular, Huo Mingchen's originally dim eyes instantly brightened when he saw that figure in white.
He silently loosened his clenched fist and wanted to walk towards Cheng Shanshan.
But Liu Liu secretly grabbed his hand: "Brother Huo, you can't go over there!"
This action was seen by Cheng Shanshan, who had just entered. She couldn't help but sneer, "I haven't even arrived yet, what are you doing here?"
Huo Mingchen forcefully withdrew his hand: "I've been waiting..."
"Don't speak."
Cheng Shanshan said coldly.
Then she pulled off the veil on Liu Liu's head before continuing, "Sister Liu Liu, you said you would give me your Brother Huo, was that a lie?"
Liu Liu's face turned pale: "Sister, what...do you mean?"
yes.
What's the meaning?
The onlookers stared with fervent eyes.
I even couldn't help but want to grab some sunflower seeds!
"What I mean is, how can the wedding ceremony be complete without me? After all, we agreed that the three of us would be doing it together!" Cheng Shanshan said, glancing at Huo Mingchen with a hint of suppressed anger in her eyes. "Brother Huo, you don't have any objections, do you?"
