Marriage, a ceremony like this one, was what Tang Xiaomin was currently anticipating.
Just as she was about to nod in response to Yan Jue, a woman's voice suddenly interrupted the ongoing wedding.
"Hold on!"
The person who arrived was Ye Die. She stumbled forward, gasping for breath, clearly exhausted.
Upon seeing Ye Die, Ye Fengxing's expression instantly changed.
Soon, several men in suits, bodyguards, stepped forward and unceremoniously dragged Ye Die away.
Ye Die, however, shouted at the top of her lungs, "Brother, you can't marry Nangong Shanshan, that bitch! She's not worthy of you at all."
"She's cheating, she's shameless, believe me, brother..."
"Brother..."
Before long, Ye Die's voice disappeared.
The word "cheating" caused the guests present to start whispering among themselves.
"What's wrong with Ye Die, coming here to say these things? Is she doing it on purpose?"
"Maybe she really knows something. Otherwise, why would those bodyguards stop her from finishing her sentence just now?"
"Oh, no way, she's not actually cheating, is she?"
"Well, before marriage, even if the bride had something with another man, it wouldn't be considered cheating, would it?"
"That depends on whether the groom minds."
...
Nangong Shanshan immediately lost her composure. She knew what she had done.
She forced herself to remain calm and looked at Ye Fengxing.
The ceremony had reached the sacred moment of reciting vows and exchanging rings. She absolutely would not allow any accidents to occur.
"Ye Die has always been unhappy about me marrying you and becoming her sister-in-law. Her coming to the wedding to say these things is clearly an attempt to sabotage our wedding."
Ye Fengxing also understood Ye Die's intentions, which was why he had the bodyguards take her away immediately.
This commercial marriage was also very important to him, even though he had no feelings for Nangong Shanshan.
Ye Die's appearance did not cause any ripples.
The wedding continued.
Reciting vows:
The vows were written by someone Nangong Shanshan had hired and were quite well-crafted.
Just as Nangong Shanshan was about to utter the words "I do," another figure suddenly burst into the venue.
"I object! I object!"
"Shanshan, you can't marry him!"
The speaker was none other than Lu Zelei, a handsome idol from the entertainment industry.
Lu Zelei's face bore fresh bruises and swelling. He had clearly taken a beating and overcome numerous obstacles to get here.
He wanted to stop this wedding, to prevent Nangong Shanshan from marrying Ye Fengxing.
A wave of uproar swept through the entire venue.
At this moment, another dozen or so bodyguards in black suits rushed towards Lu Zelei.
Clearly, their intention was to act just as they had with Ye Die, clearing away Lu Zelei, an obstacle to the wedding's progress.
Lu Zelei tried to shout something, but a bodyguard clamped his hand over his mouth, allowing only muffled sounds to escape. He was about to be dragged away.
Just then, a figure shot out from the guest seating area. With a series of sharp sounds, the bodyguards who had been so imposing and holding Lu Zelei down were now lying scattered on the ground, groaning and unable to move.
"He has something to say, why not let him finish?"
The person standing in the center of the venue was none other than Tang Xiaomin.
She had come here, having anticipated such a scene.
Ye Fengxing's wedding was heavily guarded. Apart from distinguished guests, ordinary people could not get in.
Sometimes, it wasn't that Tang Xiaomin wanted to steal the spotlight, but she had no choice.
Upon seeing Lu Zelei, Nangong Shanshan lost her composure.
"Tang Xiaomin, you're just jealous that I'm marrying Fengxing, so you deliberately helped this man sabotage my wedding! You're jealous, you're doing it on purpose!"
Nangong Shanshan clutched Ye Fengxing's arm, pleading nervously.
"Fengxing, they're in cahoots. Hurry up and deal with them, Fengxing..."
Tang Xiaomin's disruption of the wedding, for some reason, made Ye Fengxing wish that it was indeed as Nangong Shanshan claimed – that she was deliberately sabotaging it out of jealousy, trying to snatch the groom...
She had once accepted his marriage proposal, and they had actually gotten along very well in the beginning.
If she regretted it now and didn't want him to marry Nangong Shanshan, then he...
Ye Fengxing looked at Tang Xiaomin with a hopeful gaze and asked her solemnly.
"Are you doing this because you don't want me to get married?"
Ye Fengxing even impulsively thought that he wouldn't go through with this marriage. If she changed her mind, he would let go of everything without hesitation.
...
"My goodness, is Tang Xiaomin trying to snatch the groom?"
"If she does this, where does that leave Mr. Yan?"
"Mr. Yan just said that as long as he was here, Tang Xiaomin wouldn't be able to snatch the groom. Why isn't Mr. Yan taking action yet?"
"With his wife getting all the attention, how can he remain so calm?"
"Mr. Yan, quickly take this troublemaker away! She causes trouble wherever she goes."
The people at the scene even desperately wished for Yan Jue to step forward quickly and deal with Tang Xiaomin severely.
Of course, there were also those who hoped that Yan Jue would completely discard Tang Xiaomin because of this incident and send her away.
Why did she get all the good men?
...
Yan Jue remained silent, then slowly walked to Tang Xiaomin's side.
"Minmin, you haven't answered me about our marriage yet."
Tang Xiaomin looked at Yan Jue speechlessly.
"This is not the time for that. We can talk about it later."
"No."
Yan Jue's sudden stubbornness demanded a definitive answer.
This was someone else's wedding, and they were discussing their own marriage here. What kind of behavior was this?
Tang Xiaomin glared fiercely at Yan Jue, feeling an urge to curse him out at that moment.
Suddenly, Yan Jue knelt on one knee, producing a diamond ring from somewhere. Under the light of the chapel, it refracted a dazzling, brilliant gleam.
"This diamond ring was made by professionals, using a rib I removed from myself. Minmin, I love you, will you marry me?"
What kind of love was this, to prove it with a diamond ring made from one's own rib?
Romantic?
It was more like horrifying.
The entire venue fell silent, stunned by Yan Jue's sudden action.
Even Tang Xiaomin herself was in a daze. She even thought she was dreaming, a chaotic and messy dream at that.
Looking at Yan Jue, who was devoutly kneeling before Tang Xiaomin, everyone finally understood what Yan Jue meant earlier when he said that as long as he was there, Tang Xiaomin wouldn't be able to snatch the groom.
Could it be that Yan Jue had guessed long ago that Tang Xiaomin would try to snatch the groom at the wedding, so he was also proposing to her at the wedding to try again?
The women present looked at Tang Xiaomin with such envy that they wished for this public enemy of women to vanish immediately, replaced by themselves.
At the same time, some felt a deep sympathy for Yan Jue.
The president of a conglomerate loved a woman so humbly.
