Hua Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, seemed unfazed, walking forward with practiced ease and knocking on the Mo family's door.
Soon, a servant peeked out and opened the door. When he saw Hua Xiaoxiao's face outside, his eyes widened, and he immediately shouted, "Ahhh! The demoness is here!"
Gu Liyan was startled by the servant: Is there any need to be so agitated?
Watching the servant run inside without looking back, one could still hear his panicked voice coming from inside:
"Witch! The witch is here! The witch is here to harm the young master!"
Gu Liyan's lips twitched involuntarily. Something about what he said just didn't feel right. He turned his head and looked at Hua Xiaoxiao with a questioning gaze.
Hua Xiaoxiao pouted, looking all coquettish:
"Brother Mo is really something. He said he would marry me today, but why didn't he tell his family? They're all here, and he's still not ready. He's so shy!"
Gu Liyan: ...This can no longer be described as shyness, but rather as shock!
Unable to speak, Gu Liyan already had too many questions in her mind. This was clearly not a marriage, but forcing a good woman into prostitution!
Seeing the puzzled look on Gu Liyan's face, Hua Xiaoxiao immediately explained with a smile, "Brother Mo said that as long as there's a grand sedan chair carried by eight men, the matchmaker will marry me! My master arranged everything for me, but unexpectedly, we encountered a storm on the way, and a small problem arose..."
Gu Liyan: ...The person is dead, this must be a big problem!
"But it's okay, I won't give up on marrying Brother Mo!"
Gu Liyan's eyes widened: ...How did it become you marrying him?
However, upon hearing Hua Xiaoxiao's words, Gu Liyan finally understood that the bridal sedan chair and the matchmaker were her people, not members of the Mo family.
So this marriage... is it a case of the man marrying the woman?!
My goodness, Xiaoxiao is amazing!
However, Gu Liyan was still puzzled as to why the servant had called Hua Xiaoxiao a demoness.
Just then, a group of people from the Mo family suddenly ran out, wielding sticks and surrounding Gu Liyan and Hua Xiaoxiao. Their gazes were filled with vigilance and anger as they looked at Hua Xiaoxiao.
Seeing the approaching group's menacing manner, Gu Liyan frowned and watched them warily, instinctively shielding Hua Xiaoxiao behind him. However, Hua Xiaoxiao seemed completely unconcerned, instead calmly smiling as she looked at them.
Are you here to welcome me?
As soon as Hua Xiaoxiao spoke, the thugs around her subconsciously took a step back, becoming even more vigilant.
Gu Liyan was even more puzzled when he saw this. Logically speaking, how could a group of them be afraid of Hua Xiaoxiao, a weak woman?
Gu Liyan glanced at Hua Xiaoxiao. There was no energy fluctuation at all; she was just an ordinary woman! There was no need to be so afraid, was there?
"Witch!"
A shout suddenly came from inside the Mo family's gate, followed by a handsome young man who walked out, followed by several middle-aged men.
Seeing the other party's imposing manner and accusatory look, Gu Liyan's face darkened: What exactly is going on? It's not a wedding banquet, so why do they all act like they're mortal enemies?
The handsome young man was none other than Brother Mo, Mo Shang, whom Hua Xiaoxiao had mentioned.
He was also dressed in white, looking like a young master, holding a blue sword in his hand. His eyebrows were as black as ink, and his gaze was sharp and cold as he looked at Hua Xiaoxiao.
Hua Xiaoxiao was overjoyed to see Mo Shang come out:
"Brother Mo, you've come! Look, I've come to find you in my wedding dress. Are you going to marry me?"
Hearing Hua Xiaoxiao's words, Gu Liyan couldn't help but smile bitterly: She had said before that she wanted Brother Mo to marry her, but now it has turned into Mo Shang marrying her!
Hearing Hua Xiaoxiao's absurd words, Mo Shang angrily and coldly retorted, "She really is a cursed witch! She's utterly unbearable to look at! Utterly unbearable to look at!"
Upon hearing Mo Shang's words, Hua Xiaoxiao's smile vanished completely. "Brother Mo, you...you mean I'm ugly? Don't you like me anymore...?"
Tears welled up in Hua Xiaoxiao's eyes, and her pitiful and aggrieved appearance made people feel sorry for her.
Mo Shang was taken aback, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes. Behind him, Mo Shang's father, Mo Yi, immediately rebuked him:
"Witch! Stop spreading your lies! How could my son possibly fall for a cursed witch like you?"
Hua Xiaoxiao glared at Mo Yi, put her hands on her hips, pouted angrily, and said:
"You old scoundrel, Brother Mo and I are truly in love, and your attempts to stop us are futile!"
Upon hearing Hua Xiaoxiao's words, everyone stared at her with wide eyes. The Mo family was the richest family in Xicheng. Today, the head of the family was called an "old scoundrel" by a little girl. It was truly an eye-opener!
Mo Yi was so angry that his face turned red and his neck bulged. He pointed at Hua Xiaoxiao but couldn't speak. He was always flattered by everyone. When had he ever been insulted?
He remained silent, and the others dared not speak either. Just then, Gu Liyan, who was next to Hua Xiaoxiao, blinked and couldn't help but burst out laughing, breaking the awkward situation.
Only then did everyone turn their attention to Gu Liyan. His stunningly beautiful face made them unconsciously frown, completely stunning everyone present.
Everyone in the Mo family stared at Gu Liyan's face in fascination; they had never seen such a beautiful person before!
"Why are you staring at my little sister Li? She'll help me, but she won't help you break me up with Brother Mo!"
Seeing everyone staring at Gu Liyan, Hua Xiaoxiao immediately put her hands on her hips and spoke up, not forgetting to say to Gu Liyan, "Right? Sister Xiaoli?"
Everyone was stunned. This thing is a woman? Kid, are you sure you can see right?!
"Such a handsome young man would surely be furious to be called a woman by Hua Xiaoxiao!" Mo Shang thought to himself.
However, the truth is—
