"Impressive work from you."
Everyone's attention was on that farce on the red carpet, so no one noticed that Fei Ye who had been away for a while quietly sat down beside Yun Che. Yun Che smoothly poured a cup of tea and handed it to him. His plan wouldn't have worked so well if it wasn't for Fei Ye. Of course, Xing Feng also contributed. One of them changed Zhou Ting's look while the other hypnotized her. That was the reason why no one suspected when they brought Zhou Ting in.
"Gee. A lady of a big family shows no mercy when she makes a move. That old woman is a superfunction possessor of strength, isn't she?"
Taking the tea to his lips, Fei Ye exclaimed as he looked towards the red carpet. He didn't intentionally keep his voice down, but since everyone present was in heated discussion, not many people heard what he said.
"Well, she's a very low level superfunction possessor of strength."
Following his sight, Yun Che hooked his lips and smiled coldly. Zhou Zhijun carefully helped Zhou Ting up, while Zhou Ting who was beaten to the point of delirium kept mumbling for help. She looked so poor, but Liu Xizhao and the others opposite them did not sympathize with her at all. Instead, they wanted to dash forward and kill her like Zhou Wang.
"Zhijun…"
Liu Yuan, who was leaning in the arms of her mother, had tears well up in her eyes, and she called out to Zhou Zhijun aggrievedly. Zhou Zhijun turned to her, and said to her as he looked into her eyes, "Ting is a little clouded in mind, and she's talking pure nonsense. Don't take her words seriously."
"Okay."
Not expecting him to explain to her, Liu Yuan felt as if she was instantly over the moon and whatever aggravation she felt disappeared completely.
Seeing this, Liu Xizhao and his wife despised their daughter's lack of guts while he said with a long face, "If she's delirious, why don't you keep her at home? Have someone send her back and find a doctor to check on her."
Their daughter was madly in love with Zhou Zhijun, and was pregnant with his child. This was no longer a wedding that they could call off. Under such circumstance, violence was absolutely not the best way to solve the problem. They had to put up with this no matter they wanted it or not.
"Okay."
It would be best if they could understand. Zhou Zhijun nodded and beckoned the guards waiting at the door to come over and take Zhou Ting away, but Zhou Ting would not let go of his arm, "No, please don't. brother. Mom and dad, they will kill me. Please don't turn me away, please…"
In fact, Xing Feng had stopped hypnosis when she said she loved Zhou Zhijun, but this time he had allowed her to clearly remember what she had said. Under such a dire circumstance, she had to throw the handle after the blade.
"Bitch…"
Zhou Wang almost made another dive at her, but Zhou Mingyuan managed to stop her as he received a warning look from Liu Xizhao.
"Stop embarrassing yourself. Let Sun and others take you home. Isn't it normal for a little sister to fall for her brother? You are just acting a little too excited. Don't worry, I promise that mom and dad won't hurt you."
Zhou Zhijun was not stupid and he knew that the most important thing now was to make their relationship clear, otherwise if this got out, not only the Zhou Family, but also the Liu and Xiao families would be disgraced, and then the Zhou Family's situation would grow even more difficult.
"Really?!"
Timidly glancing at Zhou Mingyuan and his wife, Zhou Ting hid behind Zhou Zhijun and asked uncertainly. As far as she knew about the Zhou Family, they would not possibly let her go easily, and the only one who could save her was her brother.
"Yeah, if you don't believe me, ask dad."
Smiling and nodding, Zhou Zhijun pouted his lips at his parents. Zhou Wang was so furious, and Zhou Mingyuan felt similar. However, he still managed to force out a smile, "Silly girl, what are you talking about? How can we kill you? I'm sorry, I was being too impulsive just now. You know, your sister-in-law is pregnant, and you suddenly rushed out like that to knock her down and made such an improper joke. How can't I not be angry?"
His hatred instantly hidden, Zhou Mingyuan was now like a loving father. Although his words were pure lies, no one would confront him in such a situation.
"…"
Zhou Ting was not stupid. She could see that his father was pretending to be smiling, but meanwhile she knew very well that if she continued to pester, even Zhou Zhijun would be pissed off, and then she would really be finished.
As if he had seen through what was going on, Zhou Zhijun smiled more gently, "Go ahead, trust me. You'll be fine."
"Okay."
After repeated assessments, Zhou Ting finally nodded. Watching her leaving with the guards, Zhou Zhijun's eyes suddenly turned gloomy. It was such a coincidence. If his parents didn't really want to kill Ting, forcing her to come up with such a method, then this must have been deliberately arranged by someone else. Someone must be controlling Ting.
Whether it was the former or the latter, obviously it was not a situation one could easily deal with.
"Sorry for such a mess. My sister recently suffered from something, so she's a little mentally unstable. I hope you do not take her words seriously. She is adopted by the Zhou Family, so we are not related by blood. If there were anything between us, we would have been together long time ago and we'll not end up like this. Today is the wedding day of Yuan and me…"
Zhou Zhijun cupped his hands in front of his chest and finally resumed the responsibility of a groom. Liu Xizhao and the Xiao Family seemed to be in a better mood, but his words were cut off short. He stared somewhere obsessively. Liu Yuan felt something was not quite right, so she followed his gaze. It was a beautiful woman. Even she had to admit that the woman was even prettier than herself.
Liu Xizhao and Zhou Mingyuan and their wives also looked over as well as all the guests and friends present who noticed this. Although Liu Xizhao hadn't seen Yun Yao before, he knew Xing Feng. Almost immediately, he guessed who Yun Yao was. Then he looked at Zhou Zhijun's reaction, and his face went livid again.
"Damn bitch!"
Zhou Wang, after noticing her son's gaze, lowered her head and cursed in a low voice as she gritted her teeth. Luckily that it was noisy in the venue, otherwise a lot of people would've heard her. However, Zhou Mingyuan, who was standing next to her, still heard her words. Fearing that she might again impulsively do something, he quickly pinched her on the waist. At the same time, he wanted to go over and wake up his son. However, they were more than a meter away, and people would suspect if he really walked over.
Zhou Zhijun never dreamed that the next time he saw Yun Yao would be on such an occasion. They had not seen each other for more than two years, and she seemed to be younger and prettier than he remembered. For the moment, he completely forgot that he was marrying another woman, and all he could think of was Yun Yao's smile. When Yun Yao looked over, he thought that she would still smile at him gently like she used to, but Yun Yao soon looked away, as if she didn't see him at all, and smiled brightly at the man next to her, just like how he wished she would smile at him. Zhou Zhijun suddenly felt as if a hole had been dug out on his heart. That was his wife, the woman he loved the most. Once she was also deeply in love with him, but why did they end up like this in just two years? If he didn't chicken out and didn't promise his parents to stay here to make arrangements, would it be different? Or when the doomsday arrived, if he ignored the army's deployment and went straight back home, would they still be together?
"Zhijun…"
So many possibilities flashed through Zhou Zhijun's mind, until someone grabbed his arm and called out to him. Only at that point did he retrieve his gaze somewhat at a loss. He saw Liu Yuan look at him concernedly.
"Zhijun."
Woman's intuition was always accurate. Liu Yuan knew that the beautiful woman was his ex-wife, someone he loved dearly. Under panic, she held his arm without hesitation. It was their wedding now and Zhou Zhijun was the father of the child in her belly. She would not give him to anyone, not even his ex-wife.
"I'm okay."
After looking deeply at her for a long time, Zhou Zhijun forced out a smile and continued his unfinished words. Then the wedding started and the when the Wedding March started to play, the bride and groom once again walked down the aisle, as if the previous interlude didn't happen at all. However, anyone sensible seemed to have noticed something and they kept darting looks towards Yun Yao and others.
"Gee, he pretends to be an infatuated man in his wedding with another woman. That's so disgusting."
When no one was noticing, Chu Haoling cursed in a low voice. Yao was his goddess, and that bastard Zhou Zhijun should better pray that he wouldn't fall into his hands, otherwise he would burn him to ashes so nothing would be left of him.
"There's no need to get angry with that kind of person. Come on, have an apple. I specifically put it in the space container this morning"
Not wanting him to get angry for that kind of man, Lu Haixuan fished out a giant apple from the space ring and handed it to him. Chu Haoling was speechless, "Do you think all I could ever think of is food? How gluttonous I am to you?"
"Well…"
Everyone was confused at this. Why did he think he was not gluttonous?
"No, I just like to see you eating. I'm the one who insisted on feeding you."
After spending so much time with Yun Che, Lu Haixuan had also learned to talk nonsense in a serious manner, and all the people present couldn't help but roll their eyes. He was definitely obsessed with his husband. How dare he spoil his sweetheart like this?
"That's more like it."
"Crack!"
Chu Haoling, who insisted that he was not gluttonous seconds ago, grabbed the apple and took a bite. Yun Che and others lost the desire to roast. Who else could be considered as gluttonous if he was not?
However, after this interlude, the previously tensed atmosphere was eased, and the bride and the groom continued their wedding on stage in an orderly manner. The alien priest had asked them to exchange their vows, and they were now exchanging wedding rings. The dramatic wedding was finally coming to an end.
"Are there any objections to their marriage? If not, I will hereby declare on behalf of the Father…"
"Yes!"
Before the alien priest could finish his words, someone spoke in a loud voice, and everyone present looked over, including Yun Che and his group of people, who were about to make the same objection but was beaten to it. A group of military officers above the rank of major general, who was dressed in their uniform, walked into the entrance, and the senior officer leading the way lost an arm, while the tall man side by side with him walked in a steady and domineering manner. Next to them was a handsome young man. It was indeed Tam Weiye, his grandfather and Mo Wenyang.
They were just right on time!
Yun Che and the others smiled when they saw them, while the others who knew them were confused, having no idea what they were doing now. And those who didn't know them gloated that they were going to have another show to watch. The wedding of Zhou Zhiyuan and Liu Yuan was not going to end easily.
