Chapter 488 The Wedding is Over!
The wedding proceeded in an orderly manner.
For the villagers of Taoyuan Village, this was truly the grandest wedding they had ever seen. There were flowers, delicacies, and beauties. There were also helicopters and more than twenty luxury cars.
However, no one knew that while Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu were holding their wedding ceremony, there was a tall and cold man standing in the distance for a long time. His eyes were fixated on this grand and blissful wedding.
“Tianhao, Lingyu, you have to be happy!” Jiang Tao stood at the intersection with a solemn and sincere expression. Then, a sincere smile appeared on his face. “I wish you all the best!”
One was his good brother, and the other was the person he liked. Their union had once made him struggle and feel sad and even confused. However, by now, he had found release.
With his current status, he simply did not have the ability to bring happiness to others.
Instead of bringing harm to the person he liked, he might as well let go and allow her to seek happiness on her own.
His interest in her had attracted the attention of his grandfather, and she was almost killed because of it. The only person who could protect her now was Gong Tianhao and Grandfather Gong.
“Eldest young master, it’s time for us to leave!” A person wearing a black suit and sunglasses appeared beside Jiang Tao. “If we don’t leave now, the old master will notice your disappearance.”
Jiang Tao nodded without any expression. “Okay!”
Before Jiang Tao left, he looked back again.
Gong Tianhao seemed to have sensed something. He looked towards the village entrance and only saw a black car slowly leaving
Gong Tianhao’s eyes flashed. There was a hint of apology in his eyes, but more than that, there was determination!
“What’s wrong?” Xiao Lingyu raised her head and suddenly asked.
Gong Tianhao shook his head and said, “Nothing.”
Then, he grabbed her chubby little hand and said very gently, “Yu ‘Er, from today onwards, you are my wife. In the future, I will definitely give you happiness.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Okay.”
Two days before the wedding, Yan Siming came to question Xiao Lingyu.
However, when he found out that the child in Xiao Lingyu’s stomach was Gong Tianhao’s, he suffered a huge blow and left Taoyuan Village. He didn’t even attend their wedding.
However, as soon as he returned home, he quarreled with his grandfather.
“Grandfather, are you satisfied now? The woman I like has married another man. You don’t have to worry anymore in the future!” Yan Siming was completely drunk. As soon as he returned to the Yan family, he yelled at Old Master Yan.
Old Master Yan was a little shocked at first, but when he came back to his senses, his old eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly, “What did you say? Xiao Lingyu got married?”
That was good news. It meant that his eldest grandson could finally let her go. But he wondered who Xiao Lingyu got married to.
If he remembered correctly, the grandson of his old leader seemed to be pursuing Xiao Lingyu as well.
However, what he did not understand was why his old leader would allow his grandson to pursue a woman who was pregnant with an unknown child?
Was he not afraid that the Gong family’s reputation would be damaged?
Yan Siming was so drunk that he did not have a clear mind, but he still answered instinctively. He said in pain, “Yes, she’s married. She’s married to a man who likes her, and she likes him too. Hehe, I don’t have a chance. I don’t have a chance at all.”
Hearing that, Old Master Yan was completely relieved.
He didn’t care who Xiao Lingyu married as long as he wasn’t his eldest grandson.
Old Master Yan’s face darkened, and he said, “Look at yourself. So she got married. Why are you so sad?
“You have money and looks. Xiao Lingyu doesn’t deserve you. There are a lot of socialites in City Z who admire you. Any one of them would be better than that Xiao Lingyu from that remote corner of the mountain village.”
When Yan Siming heard his grandfather’s words, he laughed coldly and said, “Xiao Lingyu doesn’t deserve me? Do you know who she is marrying?”
“Who?” Grandfather Yan frowned slightly.
“Who else could it be? It’s just your old leader’s grandson, Gong Tianhao.” Yan Siming said loudly, “Haha, you’ve always said that Xiao Lingyu isn’t good enough for me. Grandfather, let me tell you, I’m the one who is not good enough for her.
“You said I’m rich and powerful, and a village girl is not good enough for me. But your old leader’s grandson is even richer and more powerful than me. Only an old antique like you will think Xiao Lingyu isn’t good enough for me.”
Old Master Yan was so angry that he was about to tremble.
He picked up his walking stick and pointed it at Yan Siming, shouting angrily, “Yan Siming!”
However, Yan Siming sneered and said, “Hehe, Grandpa, do you not like the truth? You are a stubborn old antique. You have always wanted me to marry a woman who is worthy of me. Tell me. Among the circles of fake socialites, which one of them is worthy of me? The funny thing is, you don’t like the person who is truly worthy of me.
“So, are you satisfied now? That woman has married someone else.” Yan Siming said loudly, “From now on, you should prepare to see your eldest grandson die as an old bachelor.”
Old Master Yan’s face was livid with anger. He pointed at Yan Siming angrily and wanted to curse. He shouted angrily, “Yan Siming, you unfilial son, are you trying to anger your grandfather to death?”
However, what answered him was the sound of a deep snore.
“Dad, what’s wrong?” At this moment, the anxious voice of his second son, Yan Yihai, came from outside the study. Then, he pushed open the door and saw Yan Siming sleeping soundly on the chair. However, the entire study reeked of alcohol. Then, he noticed his father glaring at him with a livid expression.
Yan Yihai asked in a low voice, “Dad, what happened to Siming? Why did he drink until this state?” Why was he still making a scene in the study?
Old Master Yan glared at Yan Siming and said angrily, “This useless thing. For a woman, he actually called me a stubborn old antique.”
“Ah?” Yan Yihai was a little dumbfounded. Then, he reacted, “Xiao Lingyu? What does this have to do with Xiao Lingyu?”
During this period of time, Yan Siming would often have a big argument with the old man. The cause was a woman, the one who sold strawberries and vegetables, Xiao Lingyu.
He did not know why his nephew would have such deep feelings for Xiao Lingyu because Xiao Lingyu was pregnant with an unknown child. His father naturally would not allow the eldest grandson of the Yan family to marry an unclean woman.
Unless Xiao Lingyu aborted the child.
It was obvious that Xiao Lingyu was not willing to abort the child.
However, Yan Siming seemed to have been possessed. He would quarrel with the old man every few days.
Hence, recently, the entire Yan family had been in a state of chaos.
This caused Yan Yihai to have a strong opinion of Xiao Lingyu. ‘What a dangerous woman. She hasn’t even married into the family, but she has already caused chaos in the Yan family.
“The Yan Family will die if she really manages to step into our doors.’
Therefore, other than Yan Ruyu, no one in the Yan family agreed to have Yan Siming marry Xiao Lingyu.
Thinking of this, Yan Yihai asked with a sullen face, “Dad, what did Siming do this time? Is he still clamoring to marry that Xiao Lingyu?”
Old Master Yan looked at Yan Siming coldly and snorted, “Hmph, this unfilial son. He complained and blamed me because Xiao Lingyu married someone else. Go and get me a bucket of cold water. I want him to wake up and clear his mind.”
Why was he so resistant? It was all for Yan Siming
First, it was for the face of the Yan Family. The Yan Family couldn’t allow a woman with an unknown child to be the mistress of the family.
Second, it was for Yan Siming. Yan Siming was the young master of City Z. He had money and power. If he married a country bumpkin carrying an unknown child, he would lose all his face. How was he going to survive in City Z in the future?
However, his eldest grandson would come quarrel with him every few days because of that woman. Thankfully, the news didn’t spread out from the family.
When Yan Yihai heard that Xiao Lingyu was married, he was shocked and in disbelief.
“Xiao Lingyu is married?!” Yan Yihai asked suspiciously. He was in disbelief.
Xiao Lingyu was pregnant with a child, so who would marry her? Plus, Yan Yihai really believed that Xiao Lingyu was the reason why Yan Siming had been arguing with Old Master Yan. She was urging him to create trouble at home so that she could be the young mistress of the Yan Family. That way, she wouldn’t need to worry about her life anymore. She would have endless money to spend and a group of servants to serve her. Which woman didn’t want that kind of life?
That was probably why Xiao Lingyu stuck so close to Yan Siming. Or at least that was what Yan Yihai thought.
So, when he heard that Xiao Lingyu was married, he was confused. ‘Shouldn’t Xiao Lingyu be latching onto nephew? How did she get married all of a sudden? Could it be that she found a richer family than the Yan Family?’
Old Master Yan glanced at his second son and said loudly, “I told you to get a bucket of ice water. Didn’t you hear me?”
Seeing that his father was about to get angry again, Yan Yihai immediately nodded and said, “Okay, okay, I’ll go now!”
When he walked out, he was still wondering how Xiao Lingyu got married. It was very unbelievable.
When Yan Yihai went to the kitchen to get ice water, he happened to meet his sister-in-law.
“Yihai, what are you doing in the kitchen?” His eldest sister-in-law asked.
When Yan Yihai saw his sister-in-law, he immediately said excitedly, “Sister-in-law, that Xiao Lingyu has gotten married.”
His sister-in-law’s eyes lit up. She said happily, “That’s great news.”
However, Yan Yihai said, “What’s so great about it? That Brat, Siming, had gotten drunk because of it. He just had a huge argument with Father.”
“What?” His sister-in-law was shocked. Then, she said worriedly, “I’ll go and take a look.” Then, she thought of something and said, “I’ll go and give his father a call first.”
Yan Yihai carried the ice water to the study room and said to Old Master Yan, “Father, the ice water is here.”
“Pour it directly on his face,” Old Master Yan said with a cold expression.
When Yan Siming’s mother rushed to the study, she saw Yan Siming, who was sleeping on the ground. Her heart instantly ached.
She walked over, shook his arm, and kept shouting, “Ming ‘Er, wake up.” Then, she saw that her brother-in-law was about to splash ice water on her son, so she immediately stopped him, “Dad, the water is too cold. Ming ‘Er will catch a cold.”
Old Master Yan said coldly, “A cold won’t kill him. Do it!”
The icy water splashed onto Yan Siming’s body. The bone-chilling cold woke him up from his drunken stupor.
He opened his muddled eyes and looked around. When he noticed Old Master Yan, he immediately sneered, “Hehe, Grandpa, Xiao Lingyu is already married. What are you angry about now? Shouldn’t I be the one who is angry?”
Everyone, “…”
