Chapter 248 It’s Too Late
Xiao Beisheng seemed to give Su Man a lot of room to choose.
He gave her the initiative.
After saying that, he stopped pestering and turned away.
Su Man naturally didn't believe him.
Who was Xiao Beisheng? He was the heir to the Xiao family, a child of destiny, and yet he was willing to raise another man's child. He must have other motives.
In order to snatch Su Man's child away and give it to Luo Yan, he has lost all his bottom line.
Su Man turned around and put Xiao Beisheng's words behind her.
The 28th.
The happy day arrived as expected.
It was the weekend and Qiao Shiyan didn't have to go to work, so he changed into a white shirt early in the morning. He looked in the mirror and styled his hair, looking energetic and serious.
Su Man also dressed up carefully.
Even though it's a fake marriage, we still have to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau today to take photos and register.
Even if she didn't care, Qiao Shiyan still had to save face.
The two of them were ready and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to queue up early in the morning.
Standing at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau again, Su Man felt mixed emotions. The last time she stood here was when she came with Xiao Beisheng to get her marriage certificate.
That time, she and Xiao Beisheng got their marriage certificate very suddenly.
It can be said to be a flash marriage.
They say that a quick marriage won’t have a good outcome, and it really came true.
Just as Su Man was lost in thought, a big hand took her hand. Su Man turned her head and saw Qiao Shiyan's warm smile: "After today, you will be Mrs. Qiao. Are you ready?"
Perhaps it was because Qiao Shiyan gave people a sense of security that Su Man's melancholy and sadness were dispelled.
"Well, I'm ready. Please give me more advice in the future, Lawyer Qiao. Let's move forward together."
Suman also responded to him with a smile.
The other end.
The wedding of Luo Yan and Xiao Beisheng also began to proceed.
Luo Yan didn't sleep the whole night last night. After waiting for so long, she is finally going to marry Xiao Beisheng.
Moreover, she married into the Xiao family in a grand manner.
This was something she had never dared to hope for in the first half of her life.
Early this morning, the makeup artist and photographer came to do her makeup and take pictures.
She has no close sisters or friends, and her bridesmaids are all professional bridesmaids hired by the Xiao family.
But this did not stop her from being in a good mood.
"Hey, the auspicious time is almost here, why hasn't the groom come to pick him up yet?" The bridesmaid kept checking the time and looking anxiously out the door from time to time.
Luo Yan sat on the wedding bed, not saying a word. Her face was still calm, but her mind had already wandered away.
She was also very anxious.
Another bridesmaid whispered, "Nothing's going to go wrong, is it?"
Luo Yan immediately exploded, "What nonsense are you talking about on a day like today? You're talking dirty and bringing bad luck to me!"
The bridesmaid immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant..."
"I don't want to see you now. Go outside and ask what's going on." Luo Yan ordered in a bad mood.
The bridesmaid responded and immediately slipped out the door.
After leaving the house, he grumbled in dissatisfaction: "What a bad temper! No wonder I have no friends! If it weren't for the generous reward, I would leave right now!"
When the bridesmaid went out to ask, she got the news: something unexpected happened to the groom.
——I can’t pick up the bride!
The bridesmaid was shocked and asked, "What do you mean I can't pick up the bride? Then should we still get married?"
The messenger shook his head: "We don't know either."
"It's really weird. I've accepted so many part-time bridesmaid orders, but this is the first time I've encountered something like this. The groom didn't show up, and didn't even give a clear answer, leaving a bunch of people hanging around like headless flies."
"Go talk to the bride and ask her what she plans to do."
The bridesmaid returned to the bridal chamber to inform Luo Yan.
But after being treated like that by Luo Yan just now, the bridesmaid was not worried about Luo Yan, but instead had a mentality of watching the show.
"Bride, someone from the groom's side came and said he can't come to pick her up... What do you think we should do?"
"There's no other way?" Luo Yan raised her voice and immediately said, "Give me my phone."
The bridesmaid handed the phone over, and Luo Yan immediately called Xiao Beisheng.
However.
No one answered.
She hit again.
No one answered again.
…
The bridesmaid checked the time and said, "Bride, the auspicious time has arrived."
Luo Yan squeezed the phone hard and said, "Let's not wait for the groom. Let's go directly to the banquet hall."
"Ah? Bride, go by yourself...?"
"Why, is it not possible?" Luo Yan's eyes were sharp.
The two bridesmaids looked at each other and didn't answer.
"I know what you're thinking. If the groom doesn't come to pick me up, it would be cheap of me to rush over. But Bei Sheng is not an ordinary man. Maybe something at the company is holding him back. Besides, if he didn't want to marry me, he wouldn't have accompanied me to wedding rehearsals every day during this period. It's settled. Bring me the wedding shoes and put them on."
The bridesmaid handed over the wedding shoes and squatted down to help Luo Yan put them on. Before Luo Yan could get up, she stood up suddenly and the bridesmaid almost fell down.
Luo Yan didn't even look at her, but picked up her skirt and walked out in a hurry.
Another bridesmaid came up to support her, "Are you okay?"
"What a difficult person to please! No wonder the groom ran away!"
"Yeah, so what if we rehearse every day? I've seen so many people prepare grand weddings but break up right before the wedding, run off with their ex-girlfriends, or even run away from their marriages."
"Let's go, let's go to the wedding and watch the show."
The two bridesmaids complained as they chased after him.
that's all.
A wedding car team with only the bride and bridesmaids but no groom missed the auspicious time, but still insisted on going to the Lu family residence.
Lu family residence.
The red carpet in front of the door stretched for dozens of feet.
The entire wedding venue was decorated in a luxurious and extravagant manner.
When the two bridesmaids saw the grand scale of the wedding, they could no longer utter the sarcastic remarks they had just made.
I have to say that this wedding gave the bride enough face.
But when the guests saw that only the bride Luo Yan showed up alone, they couldn't help but talk about it:
"What's going on? Where's the groom? Why is the bride alone?"
"The groom won't run away from the wedding, will he? How could the bride come here alone? Isn't this just 'paying the price'?"
"I don't think the Xiao family is sincere about marrying this bride. Not to mention that Old Madam Xiao didn't come, almost no one from the Xiao family was present."
"Should we continue with the wedding? Wouldn't it be like the bride will have to hold the ceremony alone?"
…
When Luo Yan heard these sarcastic remarks, her face turned pale and blue, her nails dug into her palms, and her knuckles turned white.
Only in this way can she maintain normalcy.
Just at this moment, Tao Jinmei and Yu Hanming arrived.
The two walked straight towards Luo Yan with a warm attitude:
"Oh, what's wrong with Beisheng? He didn't even tell me in advance when something urgent happened. He's a career-oriented person. As his wife, you should be more considerate of him."
"It's okay, sister-in-law. We are both your family and the groom's in-laws' family. We support you." Yu Hanming was also very affectionate to Luo Yan.
When the guests saw this scene, they swallowed their words back into their stomachs.
Who is Tao Jinmei?
But the groom's mother.
Since ancient times, the most difficult relationship to handle is the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. However, this bride has already dealt with her mother-in-law before she even got married. She gets along so well with her mother-in-law, how could she be neglected?
The expression on Luo Yan's face eased a lot, and that hint of arrogance returned.
The two bridesmaids who followed her were uneasy when they saw the attitude of the bride's mother-in-law and brother-in-law towards the bride.
It seems that this bride is quite valued by her in-laws.
This wedding will probably continue.
After the welcoming ceremony, the wedding began.
However, Luo Yan was still waiting for Xiao Beisheng outside the mansion.
Tao Jinmei came out and urged, "It's time to invite the guests and start the meal. Xiaoyan, why don't we not wait and start eating right away?"
"But I still have to perform the ceremony with Beisheng."
"Oh, it's already this late, why bother with the ceremony? Why not just start the feast? It's not good to keep all these guests waiting. If they keep waiting like this, others will think Bei Sheng is leaving you alone!"
Luo Yan remained motionless, standing at the door, staring intently at the direction from which he came. "No hurry, wait a little longer."
She was wearing a heavy wedding dress and ten-centimeter high heels. She didn't know how long she had been standing, and her waist and legs were sore.
However, she stood there, as if her whole body was frozen.
Finally, a car drove up at the end of the alley.
"Here it comes! The groom's car is here!" someone shouted happily.
As the car approached, Luo Yan saw the license plate number clearly. It was Xiao Beisheng's private car.
Her heart finally settled down.
Beisheng, you are finally here.
