"It's nothing." Zhu Yuan snapped out of his reverie upon hearing Xi Xingxue's voice. He chuckled softly and said:
"We'll go on stage in twenty minutes. Once you put the ring on my finger, this engagement party will be officially complete."
Zhu Yuan's smile was both alluring and gentle.
Only the heart was restless, pounding against the chest.
He was very happy, very happy.
To be able to be with Xi Xingxue.
We must stay together forever and ever.
Xi Xingxue smiled and said, "Okay."
Before the two could say anything more, Zhu Yuan's stepmother strode over.
She first nodded to Xi Xingxue, then said to Zhu Yuan,
"Xiao Yuan, come with me first, after all, you'll be having..."
She reminded the two of the ritual that was about to take place.
"Okay." Zhu Yuan nodded coldly to his stepmother.
Then he turned to Xi Xingxue and said, "Then I'll go over there first."
"Okay, go ahead." Xi Xingxue smiled gently.
Once his figure disappeared from sight, Xi Xingxue hurriedly got up, preparing to go and look for Shen Yu.
I wonder how Shen Yu is doing. I need to hurry up and trick him into going to Xi Zhixu's room to complete this last part of the story.
I just don't know how he'll be exposed?
The original text reads in large characters: "The surveillance footage of Xi Xingxue drugging someone was exposed in the lobby, and she was ruined from then on."
Since Shen Yu doesn't dislike him now, she won't arrange for someone to expose him.
How could he be exposed?
"System, if I hadn't been exposed, would I have been struck by lightning?"
System: "At this level, the plot will automatically take corrective action. Simply put, some uncontrollable things will happen. As for being struck by lightning... it's unlikely, because it's not something you intentionally caused."
"Oh, I understand."
Xi Xingxue nodded, her gaze falling on the small cake that Zhu Yuan had just tasted.
Hmm, this cake looks really good. He's hungry, so he'll have a slice.
Hmm, this tastes pretty good.
Something just feels off. But what is it? Never mind, I don't want to think about it anymore.
...
There are ten minutes left until the ceremony with Zhu Yuan.
Guests who had been wandering around the venue gradually gathered towards the center.
At this moment, Xi Xingxue finally found Shen Yu.
The other person seemed to be looking for him as well. The moment they saw him, their eyes lit up, and they immediately grabbed his wrist.
"Come with me."
He didn't say a word.
"What's wrong?" Xi Xingxue didn't understand why they were in such a hurry.
He observed Shen Yu's complexion and eyes, trying to see if he had been given Chinese medicine.
However, he appeared perfectly normal, with nothing amiss.
Xi Xingxue felt a strange sensation in her heart.
Shen Yu didn't say anything, but pulled Xi Xingxue upstairs and ran into a room, locking the door behind them.
"what you do?"
Xi Xingxue became alert.
Shen Yu crossed his arms and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
"We'll go down when the real show begins."
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Shen Yu suddenly chuckled, his expression turning somewhat sinister.
He lifted his foot and approached Xi Xingxue step by step.
"You don't really think I'd let you get engaged to someone else, do you?"
Xi Xingxue took a deep breath.
"You want to interfere? Then why now?"
It can't be that...
The emotions in Xi Xingxue's eyes gradually became turbulent, and she was alarmed.
It has to be said that Shen Yu truly deserves his reputation for bankrupting his own family.
So cruel.
"If we don't do something at this time, how can we prevent future troubles?"
Shen Yu sat down on the edge of the bed, slowly patted the spot next to her, and gave him a gentle smile.
"Come and sit down."
Xi Xingxue shook her head.
He still has things to do.
If even the first step of "Shen Yu and Xi Zhixu rolling around together" can't be taken, one can't imagine how the plot will twist and degenerate.
He turned around and went to unlock the door.
Shen Yu saw his actions and clearly misunderstood.
His eyes darkened inch by inch, like a extinguished Milky Way.
He strode over and, using his superior strength, pinned Xi Xingxue against the door, gripping his wrist tightly.
"Want to marry someone else? Don't even think about it."
Xi Xingxue was taken aback.
He did not continue to do anything that would upset Shen Yu, and calmly guided her.
"So what exactly is this so-called good show?"
A smug smile spread across Shen Yu's face, growing larger and becoming somewhat perverse and strange.
"So that you can never get married."
Actually, this scene was quite predictable.
It simply exposes Zhu Yuan's true gender.
Under the public eye, this will be a sensational news story that cannot be suppressed by any means.
Xi Xingxue remained silent.
Just as he was pondering his next move, there was a sudden, loud banging on the door behind him.
Who's inside?
His voice was hoarse and low, with no discernible tone, as if he had come looking for a room to rest.
This floor consists of rooms for guests to rest temporarily.
It's just strange that someone would come at such a crucial moment.
The door was locked from the inside, and no one could open it from the outside. Neither of them spoke.
Seeing that they received no response, the people outside seemed to have left.
However, the next moment.
With the sound of a key turning in the lock, the doorknob was turned, as if someone was about to push open the door and see the fiancé entangled with someone else at their engagement party.
"Someone's coming in, you'd better hide!"
Xi Xingxue quickly pushed Shen Yu toward the wardrobe.
