Chapter 251 I've Already Given You Face
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend Beisheng and my wedding. Beisheng had something urgent to do today and couldn't attend, but as his wife, I will understand him. In the future of our marriage, he may often have such moments because of his busy work, but I will also understand and support him as I did today and play the role of a good wife. I hope everyone eats and drinks well, and I also want to share the happiness of Beisheng and me with everyone!"
After the words were spoken, there was silence in the audience.
Seeing no one react, Yu Hanming was the first to shout, "Well said! Applause!"
He clapped his hands so hard that his palms turned red.
Someone took the lead and everyone applauded.
The ladies of the guests who were discussing this earlier didn't buy Luo Yan's products very often. They didn't have a deep relationship with the Xiao family, and most of them came here today because their husbands had cooperation with the Xiao family.
"Whose husband isn't busy? I've never seen one so busy he couldn't attend a wedding! What's wrong with Xiao Beisheng? He's not the president of a country!"
"Today is such a big day, and Madam Xiao didn't even come! Although the groom's mother is here, didn't the groom's biological mother remarry? How can she still be considered a member of the Xiao family!"
“That’s right…”
Tao Jinmei heard these discussions and stepped forward to interrupt everyone:
"I don't know what you are talking about, it's so lively."
Everyone immediately fell silent, with embarrassed expressions on their faces.
Tao Jinmei smiled but concealed a knife: "Leave a way out for others so that we can meet again in the future. We shouldn't be too harsh in what we say and do."
Everyone glanced around and gestured to each other, but no one dared to make any more sarcastic remarks.
"I am still very satisfied with my daughter-in-law. She handled today's situation very well and has the demeanor of a mistress of the house. She will definitely be a good Mrs. Xiao in the future and support Beisheng." Tao Jinmei's words had hidden meaning.
No matter what Luo Yan is, she will be Xiao Beisheng's wife in the future.
Mrs. Xiao's identity is enough to suppress all the rich ladies present.
Tao Jinmei is trying to shock everyone present.
After saying this, Tao Jinmei saw the new guests outside the door, her eyes lit up, and she deliberately said loudly: "Oh, the in-laws are coming!"
She twisted her slender waist and went over to greet them: "Isn't this Director Yang and Director Zhang? We've been waiting for you for a long time. Come on, come on, the seats in the front are reserved for you."
The rich ladies looked at each other and said sarcastically:
"Let's talk less, so as not to offend the officials!"
"Although his father is currently embroiled in a lawsuit, he still has many connections in the officialdom! The fact that he can come today shows that he is still doing the Luo family a favor."
"So what? The most unpredictable thing is the officialdom. Officialdom is not like the business world. If a business fails, you can always start over. But if an official fails, everyone else has to avoid suspicion. If you want to make a comeback, it will be impossible in this lifetime. I really don't know what there is to be proud of."
Xiao Beisheng did not show up until the end of the wedding.
Although Luo Yan's father's colleagues and friends came to help save face, Luo Yan still lost face.
Previously, people on the Internet said that Luo Yan was treated better than Su Man.
It is said that Xiao Beisheng’s first wife did not even have a wedding, but his second wife had a grand wedding, which shows that she was very favored.
However, after this day, the previous public opinion reversed:
"The second wife wasn't any better than the first! The groom disappeared throughout the entire wedding!! The bride had to go through the whole thing alone. How pathetic and embarrassing! It would have been better if there had been no wedding at all!"
"First wife: no wedding; second wife: wedding, but no groom; guess what will happen to the third wife."
"So what if it's a grand wedding? The Xiao family has plenty of money. Planning a wedding is as easy as throwing a coin into the water and listening to the sound. They say that to tell whether a man loves you, don't look at how much he gives, but whether he uses his scarce resources for you. It seems that President Xiao doesn't care much about his second wife..."
…
Luo Yan sat in the car on the way home, reading these comments and was furious.
She was already tired from wearing the heavy wedding dress today, and after finally taking it off, she saw these comments. The face she had tried so hard to maintain and the illusion she had tried so hard to uphold were easily shattered by this group of netizens.
The car returned to Dilan Garden and Luo Yan got out of the car.
Now, she has moved into Dilanyuan openly.
Before entering the house, Luo Yan saw that the house was brightly lit.
This means that Xiao Beisheng is at home.
Luo Yan was feeling angry.
No matter what, I have to demand an explanation from Xiao Bei today.
Although there was a rift in her relationship with Xiao Beisheng because of the previous incident, she still had to maintain her bottom line. She could not allow Xiao Beisheng to trample on her bottom line and neglect her again and again.
She wants to take back the initiative in their relationship.
She wanted Xiao Beisheng to be obedient and follow her every command like he did in the past.
I opened the door and just entered the hallway when I heard a sound from the bar.
Luo Yan kicked off her high heels, put on a pair of slippers, and walked towards the bar angrily.
Xiao Beisheng was taking ice cubes out of the refrigerator. He heard Luo Yan come in, but didn't react.
Still slowly, he used tongs to put the ice cubes into the wine glass.
There are two crisp sounds of "ding, ding".
Ice cubes rolled into a wine glass filled with orange liquid.
He picked up the glass and took a sip.
Luo Yan walked over and said, "Bei Sheng, don't you think you should give me an explanation? Why didn't you come today? You left me alone in front of all the guests. Do you know how embarrassing it is that I endured the entire wedding by myself?"
"You don't have to go." Xiao Beisheng said calmly, "I've already let Gao Xun know about you. It was you who chose to show up and embarrass yourself. Why blame me?"
"But you shouldn't have changed your mind at the last minute. You promised to give me a wedding. I paid so much for this wedding. We rehearsed the ceremony three months in advance, wasn't it just for that day? What are these three months?" Luo Yan tried to play the victim.
Xiao Beisheng blinked slowly, "Yes, I promised you a wedding, and I did."
The logic was full of loopholes, but Xiao Beisheng seemed to be at ease with it.
It seemed as if he had all the reason.
Luo Yan was extremely angry.
This time she wasn't going to back down.
When Xiao Beisheng raised his glass and took a sip of wine, Luo Yan went up and snatched the glass from him.
"Beisheng, I don't want to listen to your sophistry. I want to talk this over with you, otherwise, this glass of wine would have been smashed to the ground."
She was half a head shorter than Xiao Beisheng. At this moment, she despised Xiao Beisheng and felt a chill all over her body.
Xiao Beisheng looked at her quietly, his expression calm, but his eyes gradually cooled. It was as if beneath the still ice, a man-eating sea monster was lurking, its mouth wide open, its horrifying fangs bared, ready to devour everything on the ice.
"What was the condition when I agreed to marry you? Was it that you slowly cut off your business? But in Southeast Asia, two large businesses were recently discovered, and the goods were from your hands. How do you explain this?"
Luo Yan was stunned.
The momentum of launching an attack to punish the enemy is completely gone.
"Tonight, I can go out and have a good time drinking and partying, and the media will report it heavily tomorrow. Not only was you stood up on your wedding day, but you also had to spend your wedding night alone. My presence here is the greatest respect I can give you." Xiao Beisheng said as he took the glass of wine back from Luo Yan.
He held the wine glass, placed the bottom of the glass against Luo Yan's chin, and slid it up along her face, little by little, in a frivolous manner.
The cold touch made Luo Yan tremble slightly.
"The reason I'm still marrying you is because I'm still giving you a chance. Cut off those businesses, and I'll give you the life you want. Do you understand?"
His voice was very soft, like the whisper of a devil.
