Lu Ying didn’t grab another microphone. She stood beside Xi Cheng and Lin Yu with a genial smile but uttered coldly, “This is your wedding. It’ll affect the Xi family’s reputation if you make a scene here, Lin Yu.”
Lin Yu returned her words with a smile equally as cold. “There’s not much left of the Xi family’s reputation to ruin, thanks to you guys. Besides, aren’t you here to watch the show, Auntie?”
Lu Ying didn’t expect Lin Yu to drop all pretense. Lin Yu held the microphone and walked straight to Fang Xi. Xi Cheng quickly went to grab her, his voice filled with warning as he hissed, “Lin Yu!”
Lin Yu lightly shook off his hand, smiled gently at him, and said to him with the microphone, “This is my wedding. I value it more than anyone else, so naturally, I won’t allow anyone to defile it!”
Before Xi Cheng could respond, she turned to Fang Xi. “Miss Fang, it’s been a while! I didn’t expect you would actually come to my wedding. You’re the most special guest here.”
She once again pushed Xi Cheng, who was trying to stop her, away and faced the audience. “Let me introduce her to you all. This is Miss Fang Xi. She used to be Xi Cheng’s girlfriend. Back then, for my mother-in-law, I kneeled and begged her to leave Xi Cheng.”
“I didn’t expect Miss Fang Xi to turn around and promptly find a new boyfriend, Ye Kun. I heard that Ye Kun swore in public that he would marry no one but her and that he would never abandon her, even if she was crippled. As everyone knows, Xi Cheng and Ye Kun were childhood friends, but because of Miss Fang Xi, the two buddies are now at odds with each other,” Lin Yu remarked.
“I’m a little worried that the two will rekindle their old flame, to be honest. I’m not as pretty as Miss Fang Xi, after all! With my mother-in-law being seriously ill nowadays, there’s no one to stand up for me. Since Auntie Lu said they’re here to witness the wedding ceremony on my mother-in-law’s behalf, then allow me to brazenly ask you, Auntie, to keep an eye on your daughter-in-law. I also ask you, Ye Kun, to watch over your fiancée for the sake of your childhood friendship with Xi Cheng!” Lin Yu stated and bowed to Lu Ying and the others.
Lu Ying was livid, and her chest felt tight with anger. She staggered back, and Ye Kun hurriedly supported his mother. “Mom, calm down!” he said, worried.
Fang Xi strenuously stood up by pushing on the wheelchair’s armrests with both hands, and Yun Nan quickly reached out to support her. Fang Xi reached out her hand to one side, and Lu Hui immediately snatched the host’s microphone and handed it to Fang Xi.
Fang Xi smiled at Lin Yu. Her voice was clear and pleasing with a hint of laughter as she said, “Miss Lin, today’s your wedding day, and we’re here to give you our blessings out of goodwill. I didn’t expect you to ruin your own wedding when I haven’t done anything. It doesn’t bode well for the bride to be so unconfident! ”
Lin Yu didn’t give in. “Excuse me for making a fool of myself, Miss Fang. Xi Cheng and I were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. To me, he has long been a part of my life. It’s precisely because he holds too much value to me that I have such worries, fearing he would leave me for someone else. It’s because there are too many women like you in this world, Miss Fang, that I have no choice but to put all my efforts into guarding against them!” “Lin Yu!” Xi Cheng came and grabbed Lin Yu, his eyes pleading.
Fang Xi looked at the two pulling and tugging and smiled. “Miss Lin, as the most special Quest here, I think I must make a comment, iust to be clear. When I was with Xi Cheng, he never mentioned that he had a fiancée he had to marry. Obviously, you’re not as important to him as he is to you!”
“Back then, you kneeled before me the moment we met and begged me to leave Xi Cheng. I didn’t say a word and immediately returned him to you. I think I’ve done the best I could, right? However, isn’t it too much for you to want to kill me time and time again just because of your insecurities, Miss Lin?”
Fang Xi continued, “Today is your wedding day. Instead of treating us as honored guests, you used a method that hurt everyone, including yourself, to publicize our past to all and sundry. Evidently, even if you two are standing here holding a wedding, you guys may outwardly appear to be a harmonious couple but are divided at heart.”
Fang Xi looked at the stunned Xi Cheng and smiled sweetly. “Mr. Xi, you seem very surprised. You didn’t expect me to be so brutal, did you? But you and your wife asked for it!”
“I’ve been through two life-and-death situations in the past six months. Those two near-death experiences were God’s punishment to me for being a lovestruck fool, but if you’re curious to know, Mr. Xi, why don’t you ask Miss Lin Zhu why she hit me with her car? Why don’t you ask how you guys were
‘coincidentally’ at the bridal shop at the same time we were?”
“Go find out where your fiancée was when you locked me up in Ling Yun Borough that day.. *Cough!* I have the sneaking suspicion that the accident that landed your mother in a hospital bed also has something to do with your fiancée!”
