Yun Wu wanted to go with Lin Shanchu.
Zhou Yan stopped her. “Miss Yun, please go to the banquet hall and take a seat.”
“Go.” Lin Shanchu reminded her seriously, “The food in this hotel tastes good.”
Yun Wu said unhappily, “…Am I that kind of person?”
How could she still eat at a time like this?
However, reality proved that Yun Wu was that kind of person.
The moment she went to the entrance hall, she could smell the fragrance of food.
“Yun Wu, over here!” Nan Mu waved at her from afar.
Nan Mu, Qi Cheng, and He Xiang sat at the same table.
Yun Wu walked closer and saw that Wen Tongtong and Ji Yuan were also present.
Yun Wu swallowed as she looked at the food in front of her
She could tell it was delicious just by looking at it.
Nan Mu reminded her in time, “We can only start eating after the wedding ceremony.”
Yun Wu silent withdrew her hand that was about to reach for the chopsticks.
Since Yun Wu was unable to eat the food, she had nothing to do. Then, she turned to Nan Mu and whispered, “Where is my Third Brother? Why isn’t he here?”
Lu Shiyuan had arranged for many bodyguards to stop Huo Xunzhou from attending the wedding. If Huo Xunzhou insisted on coming over, she believed that those bodyguards would not be able to stop him. Nan Mu replied, “I don’t know.”
“Then do you know why Shanshan…” Yun Wu asked.
Without waiting for Yun Wu to finish speaking, Nan Mu said frankly, “I don’t know. ”
Yun Wu asked, “How come you don’t know anything?”
Nan Mu thought about it seriously and said firmly, “I know Huo Chaosheng would come and cause trouble for sure.”
Yun Wu’s expression froze. She silently placed her chin on the dining table and did not ask further questions.
“Why is she here?”
“Who is it? Xia Jinmeng?”
“How dare she come here? Today is Lu Shiyuan and Lin Shanchu’s wedding day.
If Lin Shanchu sees her, will she let her off the hook?”
After hearing the discussion, Yun Wu turned around and saw Xia Jinmeng sitting at the next table.
Xia Jinmeng dressed up for the wedding today. Her clothes and accessories from head to toe were expensive and eye-catching.
Obviously, Xia Jinmeng was here to steal Lin Shanchu’s limelight on purpose.
Yun Wu could not understand why Xia Jinmeng would think that she could make up for the difference in appearance and temperament by using so-called luxury items.
Xia Jinmeng also noticed Yun Wu’s gaze.
She glanced at Yun Wu and deliberately raised her chin to put on a proud look.
Yun Wu felt bored and continued to lie on the dining table, staring at the dishes in front of her.
“Lin Shanchu is here! ”
“She seems to be coming this way?”
“Probably?”
“Xia Jinmeng is done for…”
Although Xia Jinmeng kept her chin up and pretended to be arrogant, she could hear the discussion beside her clearly.
She raised her head and looked in the direction of everyone’s gaze.
However, when Xia Jinmeng looked over, the first thing she noticed was Lin
Shanchu’s attractive eyes and the beautiful outlines of her shoulders and neck.
Then, she noticed that Lin Shanchu was still wearing that dreamy blue princess haircut. Other than the veil, there was not much decoration on her head. The simple white wedding dress was obviously made by a famous designer at a glance.
Her outfit was not as grand as those worn by female celebrities when they walked the red carpet.
However, people around her whispered words like “so beautiful” and “so pretty”.
Lin Shanchu walked straight towards Xia Jinmeng.
The guests in discussion earlier fell silent, looking like they were watching a drama unfold.
“Shanshan is here.” Yun Wu tugged at Nan Mu beside her.
Nan Mu looked back and asked, “Aren’t brides supposed to walk the red carpet to make their entrance? Why is she here now?”
Yun Wu snorted. “Shanshan will never walk the red carpet with that disgusting man.”
No wonder Huo Xunzhou did not come.
If Shanshan really had to walk the red carpet with that disgusting man, Huo Xunzhou might vomit blood in rage on the spot.
Even now, she felt angry just by thinking of that scene.
That disgusting man was not worthy of walking the red carpet with Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu walked up to Xia Jinmeng and looked down at her. “You’re here too.”
Lin Shanchu’s tone sounded gentle, but her condescending attitude was unfriendly.
Xia Jinmeng felt that she was at a disadvantage by sitting down. Her aura was much weaker than that of Lin Shanchu who was standing.
Hence, she stood up and replied, “How can I not come to President Lu’s wedding?”
Xia Jinmeng tried her best to raise her chin, trying to make herself look more arrogant and imposing.
Unfortunately, Lin Shanchu was taller than her. Even though Xia Jinmeng tried her best to raise her chin, Lin Shanchu could still look down at her.
Lin Shanchu’s voice was filled with contempt. “You are here with what identity?”
“What do you think?” Xia Jinmeng replied resentfully.
Lin Shanchu initially promised to help her win Lu Shiyuan’s favor.
However, just as her relationship with Lu Shiyuan had progressed a little, he was going to marry Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu must have been jealous of her and deliberately made Lu Shiyuan anxious to marry her.
Lin Shanchu smiled faintly.
She casually picked up a wine glass on the table. Then, she splashed all the wine onto Xia Jinmeng’s gown with a gentle wave of her arm.
“Ah!” Xia Jinmeng screamed, “What are you doing?”
“I’m sorry. I didn’t hold it properly.” Lin Shanchu shook the empty glass in her hand and said innocently, “Hurry up and get changed before coming back.” “You…” Xia Jinmeng was bereft of speech due to anger.
Lin Shanchu placed the wine glass back on the table and looked at the wine stains on Xia Jinmeng’s gown before she said regretfully, “What a pity.” It was a pity that such a good gown was ruined just like that.
Unfortunately, Xia Jinmeng would have to pay the price for everything that happened today for the rest of her life.
Xia Jinmeng felt that Lin Shanchu was extremely despicable.
Not only had she had dirtied her gown on purpose, but she even pretended to say that it was a pity.
She would not give up just like that.
So what if Lu Shiyuan was married?
She could still think of a way to snatch Lu Shiyuan away from Lin Shanchu.
Xia Jinmeng glared at Lin Shanchu coldly before leaving her seat to change her gown.
The emcee walked over anxiously. “Miss Lin, the wedding is about to begin.”
“Let’s begin then.”
Lin Shanchu turned around and walked towards the stage.
The emcee followed closely behind her. “But according to the ceremony, you should come in through the door and walk the red carpet with President Lu.” “The red carpet is too long. My high heels are hurting my feet.” Lin Shanchu lifted her dress and ran after she finished speaking.
The emcee was bewildered.
If she did not want to walk the red carpet, she could just say so. How did this look like her feet were hurting?
The emcee was on the verge of tears as he ran behind Lin Shanchu and said,
“Miss Lin, many guests are watching us. Look…”
“Yes, many guests are watching us. We can’t let them wait too long. There’s no need for those tedious processes. The most important thing is to start the banquet early.”
Yun Wu was starved, so Lin Shanchu could not let her wait too long.
The emcee wanted to say something, but when he saw Lu Shiyuan walking over from backstage, he quickly called out, “President Lu.”
Lu Shiyuan strode over to Lin Shanchu.
“Lin Shanchu, what are you trying to do?”
