Chapter 379 Wedding
In front of the makeup mirror, several girls were complimenting Jiang Lingxue on her beauty.
The woman in the mirror was dressed in a white wedding gown, exquisitely made up, with a serene smile on her face. However, beneath that smile lay a haughty air that others could not discern.
Jiang Lingxue was not unaware of the envy and jealousy in their eyes.
Indeed, who would have thought that she, who was once hunted down by the Huo family and almost became a stray dog, would be living a better life now?
These wealthy families are all connected. When Jiang Lingxue and Huo Heng got engaged, these people were also present.
It wasn't just these few people; Jiang Lingxue deliberately invited the families who attended her engagement banquet this time, just to show them that she would only get better and better.
She is the female protagonist of this world, the center of everything, and an existence that everyone envies.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lingxue's smile became even more genuine.
The people in the dressing room stepped back first, and Chen Ruolan came in with a pale face. Even with heavy makeup, she couldn't hide her fatigue and fear.
"Mom, are you feeling better?" Jiang Lingxue asked with concern.
Chen Ruolan shook her head, her eyes filled with fear: "As soon as I close my eyes, I see those strange and eerie creatures chasing me. I don't even dare to sleep now."
Ever since encountering Jiang Liyue and Chu Li at the mall the day before yesterday, Chen Ruolan has been dreaming of terrifying, eerie creatures chasing her every time she goes to sleep.
Chen Ruolan didn't even dare to enter the dungeon, let alone bear this. She was woken up crying from her dream.
She initially thought it was just a normal nightmare, but for the past two days, whenever she closed her eyes, she would dream of those horrific scenes: blood-soaked human limbs and grotesque, distorted faces.
It almost drove Chen Ruolan to a mental breakdown.
Because she hadn't slept for two days, she looked very unwell, but she forced herself to attend today's wedding.
"I've already had Ah Feng examine you. Your condition has nothing to do with the strange game. Maybe you've been under too much pressure these past few days. You'll be able to relax properly after the wedding," Jiang Lingxue gently comforted her.
Chen Ruolan didn't feel pressured, but seeing what her daughter and son-in-law said, she didn't refute it.
She squeezed Jiang Lingxue's hand: "You will definitely shine today."
Jiang Lingxue smiled confidently: "Of course."
Jiang Liyue had been up too long with Chu Li last night and didn't get up early, so she didn't see the morning steps of Jiang Lingxue's wedding.
However, she wasn't interested in those things anyway, so she and Chu Li stayed in bed until almost noon before getting up to change their clothes and prepare for the banquet.
Fortunately, the wedding was held at this hotel, so it didn't take much time.
After going downstairs, you can hear lively sounds coming from inside the hotel. It seems that Jiang Lingxue's wedding today is indeed very grand, with many guests, not as shabby as Huang Linye said.
The wedding was held in a special hall of the hotel, and Jiang Liyue and Chu Li were able to enter after showing their invitations.
The waiter's gaze lingered on the two of them for a moment, marveling at where this divinely good-looking couple had come from.
The entire hall was spacious and luxurious, and it was divided into two floors. The upper floor had some lounges and dressing rooms for more important guests to rest.
At this moment, people were coming and going in the hall, and they had already begun to sit down and exchange pleasantries. Only occasionally did one or two people notice Jiang Liyue's presence.
She pulled Chu Li to a shady corner, a place for guests of lower status who were not close to the Jiang family.
Since we're here to watch a good show, we should definitely choose this kind of spot.
However, other people at the table noticed their appearance. The girl sitting next to Jiang Liyue asked curiously, "Miss, are you a relative of the Jiang family?"
“Of course not.” Jiang Liyue quickly shook her head.
It's bad luck to be related to them.
The girl wasn't familiar with the Jiang family, and they even had some minor conflicts. However, now that the Jiang family was in power, her family had to send someone to the banquet so as not to offend them.
Seeing Jiang Liyue's avoidance, the girl assumed she was in the same situation and became even more friendly.
Chu Li discovered that no matter where they were, his wife always attracted a lot of attention.
He silently put his large hand around her shoulder, declaring his status without a word.
The girl noticed this action, followed the hand on Jiang Liyue's shoulder, and almost blurted out a curse.
Where did this amazing man come from?!
His sharp, handsome features, combined with his possessive mannerisms, had already generated a hundred fanfictions in her mind.
This girl must be eating really well to have such a handsome boyfriend.
But the girl's gaze fell once again on Jiang Liyue's exquisite face.
...Well, this man eats well too.
The two of them were even more eye-catching than the two people who were actually at the wedding today.
The wedding was about to begin, and the entire ceremony fell silent as the lights went out, leaving only the groom on the stage.
The groom was actually quite handsome, but when the girl thought about the good-looking couples at their table, she suddenly felt that he wasn't all that great.
However, most people can't empathize with girls, and many are whispering about Jiang Lingxue's good luck.
As the music began, bathed in the soft lighting, Jiang Lingxue, dressed in a wedding gown, pushed open the hall door and slowly entered.
All eyes were on her, some with envy and some with jealousy.
Jiang Lingxue held her head high.
"Does Yueyue like this?" Chu Li pulled her into his arms and whispered in her ear.
Chu Li naturally knew something about human weddings.
In the dungeons, they would always be together, but each dungeon took too long. Even in the villa dungeon where they were legally married, they never had a wedding.
He proposed in the vampire instance, but didn't hold a grand wedding with many people invited.
As a monster, Chu Li felt nothing about such things.
Even if he knows it's a human custom, he can't truly understand the meaning of a wedding.
For monsters, as long as they possess something and leave their scent, they can have a lover.
But his Yueyue is human, would she like that?
If she likes it, Chu Li will grant her wish. They can hold a wedding in the real world, the supernatural world, or even a dungeon world.
Jiang Liyue seemed to sense his thoughts and quickly shook her head: "Please don't, I don't like it."
Jiang Liyue hated these complicated procedures, but she had experienced several weddings in their previous life when she was an actress.
It's not interesting at all.
Even if most people come to attend, it's just to maintain a superficial relationship and have a meal. Like Jiang Lingxue's wedding now, most people have their own agendas, how many of them are truly offering their blessings?
Besides, she has no relatives or friends in this world, so why would she need to hold a wedding?
Should she let a bunch of weirdos sitting below applaud her?
The thought of this scene only made Jiang Liyue laugh; she had absolutely no expectations.
So when Chu Li asked her if she really didn't like it, she quickly nodded: "Really, absolutely, I don't like it at all."
They were afraid that if she refused, she would have a wedding attended by all sorts of weirdos.
Let her go.
