Chapter 43: Big Wedding (1) Is Our Agreement Still There

Chapter 43

A month had passed.

In Beiwen State, Gu Yan Sheng and An Nuan’s wedding, which had been hyped up a great deal by the media, was taking place tomorrow in Qing City.

An Nuan tossed and turned, unable to sleep in bed.

She had also been sleepless in her previous life.

But for different reasons.

In her previous life, she was too excited anticipating the wedding and love to fall asleep.

In this life, she was only thinking about how to flawlessly expose Gu Yan Sheng's false mask in public tomorrow.

Late at night.

The phone suddenly rang.

An Nuan was startled.

As she looked at the caller ID, her heartbeat seemed to quicken by a second.

She suddenly remembered that at this time in her previous life, she had also received a call from Ye Jinghuai. Back then, he had asked her if he came to snatch her away the next day, would she leave with him?

She controlled her heart rate and answered, "Ye Jinghuai."

"Is our agreement still in place?" he asked, sounding sober without any detectable emotion.

After all, it was no longer the same words as her previous life.

The current Ye Jinghuai was also not drunk.

She said, "Did I ever revoke our agreement?"

"It's just that this past month, Miss An has been all over the news with Young Master Gu, taking wedding photos, picking out a wedding dress, looking inseparable. It made me think that Miss An was out of her mind and had played a joke on me."

An Nuan's expression changed slightly.

You bastard's the one out of your mind, your whole family's out of their minds!

How could he say that she and Gu Yan Sheng were inseparable this past month?

Admittedly.

In preparing for the wedding this past month, she had been busy dealing with the wedding preparations.

And the only reason she did this was to avoid Gu Yan Sheng's suspicions, or even better, to allow Gu Yan Sheng to put on an even more convincing act, and disguise himself even more perfectly. After all, the higher one flies, the harder they fall!

But what about Ye Jinghuai?

After spending one night at his place a month ago, he had not contacted her at all since, to the point that An Nuan had restrained herself multiple times from calling Ye Jinghuai to ask if he would show up on her wedding day. To be honest, with their current relationship, she really had no confidence that he would appear.

Yet those impulses were always abandoned in the end.

She didn’t want to coerce Ye Jinghuai into cooperating with her under the guise of marriage. As long as he was unwilling, she absolutely would not force him.

Moreover, she also thought it through very clearly - even if Ye Jinghuai didn't show up tomorrow, exposing Gu Yan Sheng's video would still bring Gu Yan Sheng to ruin.

It was just that being snatched away by another man at the wedding scene would deal an even greater blow to Gu Yan Sheng.

"It's alright Miss Xia. The bridesmaid's makeup isn't very complicated anyway, being a little late doesn't matter. Why don't you go to the bathroom first, and wash your face while you're at it?" the staff gently suggested.

"What! You can tell I didn't wash my face?" Xia Qiqi exclaimed uncouthly. "Don't tell me I have eye gunk!"

Usually people wouldn't be able to tell that Xia Qiqi was a young miss from a prominent family, a super prominent family with billions in assets at that. The staff was immediately amused by Xia Qiqi.

One really had to say, Xia Qiqi's affability made everyone feel that she was without pretense.

So Xia Qiqi had a rather good reputation in many service industries.

"No, it's just that there are still traces of drool at the corner of your mouth," the staff quickly explained.

"Oh, is that so?" Xia Qiqi touched the corner of her mouth, "I was even dreaming of gnawing on pig's trotters last night! I was fasting yesterday in preparation for my bridesmaid duties today!"

Saying so, she sidled up to An Nuan, "I've sacrificed to this extent for you, tell me you love me or not?"

"Love you to death, hurry up and go freshen up." An Nuan urged.

"Perfunctory." Xia Qiqi pouted.

It wasn't that she was being perfunctory.

Rather...making any sacrifice for her wedding with Gu Yan Sheng wasn't worth it!

After Xia Qiqi finished washing up in the bathroom, she obediently sat down to let the staff do her makeup.

Laughter would emanate from the room from time to time between Xia Qiqi and the staff joking around.

Only An Nuan.

Truly couldn't crack a smile at all.

Fortunately, Xia Qiqi was fairly easygoing. She didn't notice An Nuan's mood, and even if she did, she would attribute it to wedding jitters.

It took over 3 hours for An Nuan and Xia Qiqi's makeover to finish.

Seeing An Nuan's appearance, Xia Qiqi gnashed her teeth and asked, "An Nuan, how can such an ordinary wedding dress look so good on you?!"

An Nuan looked at herself in the full length mirror.

Indeed.

The wedding dress was very ordinary.

Not because she didn't look forward to this wedding and deliberately chose it, but because Gu Yan Sheng didn't put in that much thought.

When they went to pick the wedding dress, there were so many styles that her eyes glazed over from looking at too many. Gu Yan Sheng impatiently picked a few for her at random, coincidentally identical to her previous life.

In her previous life, An Nuan had nodded despite not liking them in order to cater to Gu Yan Sheng.

The current An Nuan only went along with it because she didn't care either way.

Yet at this moment.

The mirror still reflected a beautiful, breathtaking bride.

She was good-looking, the kind of good-looking that anyone would find attractive, with no flaws to be found on her face. With just a little makeup, she could be exquisite and alluring.

So the praises showered on her by the media for her wedding day appearance in her previous life really had nothing to do with Gu Yan Sheng's so-called "meticulous preparation"!
