The Gu family members were very well trained. Even with a different bride, they managed to help Su Ning up from the ground in just three minutes, change her into a wedding dress, and do her makeup.
They found the wedding dress somewhere, and it fit Su Ning perfectly.
Su Ning let them do whatever they wanted. Having ruined her legs for many years, she had long since passed the stage of fearing and resisting being touched by others.
She looked up at herself in the mirror, her makeup making her even more glamorous. There was no joy in her eyes, only the pain of her heart being torn apart, spreading through her body in waves and thread by thread.
Wedding banquet hall
News of Qiao Yimo's disappearance had already spread among the guests. They saw both families leaving in a hurry and assumed the wedding couldn't continue. But then, just as the appointed time arrived, a smartly dressed emcee came up on stage with a microphone and invited the bride and groom to appear.
Thinking that Qiao Yimo had been found, everyone quieted down and looked expectantly at the entrance of the banquet hall.
In the dimly lit hall, all the lights focused on the entrance. As the door slowly opened, rose petals rained down from the air, creating a dreamlike scene. A group of people entered, and the man at the head of the group was aloof and perfect, instantly attracting the attention of all the female guests present. Their eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
A month ago, the cold and indifferent Gu Jingchen suddenly announced that he would marry Su family's stepdaughter, Qiao Yimo. This move broke the hearts of countless girls.
Then look around him...
No, there's no one around Gu Jingchen.
The guests' gazes shifted in confusion to Gu Jingchen, whose long, slender fingers gripped the handle of his wheelchair.
The one sitting in the wheelchair is the bride.
From a distance, before the guests could clearly see the woman in the wheelchair, they asked in surprise, "Qiao Yimo is injured?"
As Su Ning's elegant and beautiful smile slowly came into everyone's view, the people in the banquet hall exclaimed in shock, "Isn't this Qiao Yimo? Who is it?"
Su Ning has been away from Nancheng for so long that few people remember her. When her name is mentioned, most people are in a daze.
"Su Ning, it's Su Ning!"
Then someone else exclaimed, "They finally remember who she is!"
"The one who was dumped by Gu Jingchen four years ago."
Four years ago, Gu Jingchen had a lover he cherished dearly, whom he doted on to the extreme. She loved fireworks, so on her birthday, Gu Jingchen had the entire southern city light up with fireworks all night long for her. When a woman became jealous and offended her, Gu Jingchen taught that woman a lesson and directly shut down her company.
Later, for reasons unknown, Su Ning offended Gu Jingchen and was kicked out of Nancheng. On the night she left, a car accident left her with crippled legs, and the Su family patriarch sent her abroad for treatment.
"She's been back for a while now, what's she doing here?"
"Someone just saw her go to see Gu Jingchen. Could Qiao Yimo's disappearance be related to her?"
Upon contact, the guests concluded that Su Ning was responsible for Qiao Yimo's disappearance.
"How shameless! Qiao Yimo is also her sister!"
It must be Su Ning who forced Gu Jingchen to marry her. This woman was just as willful and vicious as she was four years ago, only now that she was a cripple, the guests were even more disgusted and contemptuous of her.
Unpleasant words came one after another, and Su Ning heard them all. She was used to it, and kept smiling as she looked at the audience.
You're daydreaming!
Suddenly, that face, so deeply ingrained in her bones, magnified in her eyes. Before Su Ning could react, his lips covered hers, kissing her gently and deeply, as if he wanted to swallow her up little by little.
Su Ning gripped the wheelchair armrests tightly, holding her breath and staring blankly until her face turned red from holding her breath, before Gu Jingchen finally released her.
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Gu on your marriage!
The emcee's voice rang out again, pulling Su Ning back from her wandering thoughts.
Coming to her senses, Su Ning looked up and saw Gu Jingchen standing beside her, his cold profile a far cry from the tenderness he had shown when he kissed her earlier.
His tenderness just now felt like a dream.
