Chapter 870: Brother Xichen, You Can’t Take the Bride Away Without A Confession
Unexpectedly, the wedding came to be held at night!
And now, even more reporters turned up than during the day, they were even more enthusiastic!
As Mu Xichen’s car pulled to a stop, Li Beinian saw a crowd of people outside.
When the reporters saw them, their eyes lit up at once.
However, two rows of bodyguards dressed in black managed to do a good job in maintaining order.
How could Li Beinian not realize!
If the party had been over long ago, there would’ve been no one around. Hence this crowd was obviously pre-arranged!
The number of reporters alone was twice as many as during the day.
At this point, the crowd had spread out nicely. They stood apart to form a clear path with just enough s.p.a.ce for three people to walk side by side on the red carpet. At the end of the brand new red carpet, Will was supporting Nico in his formal suit.
Nico’s exotic looking face was beaming with joy.
The moment Will saw Li Beinian, his smile became even more gentlemanly and elegant. He looked at Li Beinian for a while and then lowered his head to whisper in Nico’s ear.
Li Beinian smiled and nodded at Nico. Then, Will walked towards her with Nico under his escort.
They took one slow step at a time.
As Li Beinian looked at the slowly approaching Nico, the guilt that she had been suppressing for a long time started to resurface.
She began walking towards him as well. At first, her footsteps were hesitant, but after taking two steps, she couldn’t help but run towards the man, shouting, “Daddy.”
The reporters were stunned.
“Daddy?”
“This is Li Beinian’s father? Then… what about Li Haoran?”
“That’s right, where’s Li Haoran? Why isn’t he here? Isn’t his daughter getting married today?”
“That’s shocking! I didn’t expect Li Haoran to not be Li Beinian’s father! No wonder!”
There was a flurry of discussion.
However, the person in question did not seem to notice them. Li Beinian took over Butler Will’s duty and supported Nico.
As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to recover from a serious injury. Although Nico’s leg had not fully recovered, he could at this point abandon his crutches wheelchair.
Except that, being afraid of looking bad when he tried to walk, he had to get someone to support him.
Now that he was looking straight at his daughter, Nico’s expression softened as he whispered, “It’s been hard on you, Beinian.”
“You already knew?” Li Beinian thought about it and felt that this was the most likely possibility.
It was only because Nico knew about Mu Xichen’s plan, that he had not reacted upon knowing that they had been arrested.
It was only because Nico knew what was going to happen, that he could now do his duty as a father and witness at their wedding.
Sure enough, Nico nodded and said, “When Xichen found me, he had asked my help to hide it from you. Were you frightened?”
Li Beinian was a little frightened, but more than that, she was upset. She pouted and said, “How dare you hide such a big matter from me. It seems more like you two are father and son!”
Nico laughed. “Xichen is doing this for your own good. If you knew, wouldn’t the plot be exposed?”
However, he had to admire Mu Xichen’s meticulousness.
After the plan was set up, they only had to wait for the enemies to fall prey one by one.
Lin Ya thought that he had caught a big fish, but instead, he ended up losing a great general.
According to Mu Xichen’s a.n.a.lysis, in order to keep his own hands clean and protect himself, Lin Ya would have directed all the evidence to point to Mu Donglin.
Nico didn’t know Lin Ya, nor did he know Mu Donglin. However, judging from their style of working, Lin Ya probably wouldn’t just do this.
Perhaps… he would do something more extreme.
As for what it might be, no one knew.
Li Beinian was quickly led in by Nico. At this point, the reporters and media people who were working overtime were all extremely excited!
Time and again, Li Beinian had surprised them!
Just earlier on in the day, she was being criticized on the internet. Suddenly, there was an unexpected reversal. Not only was her name suddenly cleared, she also drew apologies, sympathy and attention from everyone on the internet. Then, after all that, the mystery of her ident.i.ty suddenly surfaced out of the blue, attracting much attention.
To the reporters, Li Beinian was a powerhouse of news!
Sure enough, the news of Li Beinian’s mysterious ident.i.ty attracted the attention of the internet world.
In less than half an hour, she made her way to the top three trending topics.

# Li Beinian’s biological father #
The number of views increased at an alarming rate!
Bo Chengcheng was also staying up late to deal with this matter. Seeing that the matter had been resolved quickly, she finally smiled in relief.
Then, she picked up her bag and said, “Let’s go.”
Jiang Yeqing, even when dressed decently, could not conceal his sloppy gangster aura.
He put his arm around Bo Chengcheng’s shoulder and said, “Alright, let’s go.”
The Mo family had turned up in full force, including Old Master Mo and the other military men in the courtyard. They were all here for the wedding.
There was a significant number of groomsmen. Gu Mingye led the pack, followed by Bai Yuan, Yang Dawu, and Mo Shengran.
The rest of the men could only play supporting roles, unfortunately. However, they were in a similarly good mood, as if they were the ones getting hitched.
This was a traditional Chinese wedding ceremony.
Nico somehow managed to employ a maid to wait on the bride. After inviting Li Beinian in, he got the maid to tidy up her hair and clothes. As she combed the bride’s hair and freshened her gown, she even said auspicious words.
At once, Li Beinian felt like she was a bride from ancient times.
Perhaps because she had had a long nap, Li Beinian felt a little dazed.
Before she knew it, Mu Xichen was already knocking on the door.
The bridesmaids kept the door firmly locked as Cheng Su shouted, “What are you here for!”
The person outside replied, “We’re here to get the bride!”
“Ah, you may collect the bride, but first say something nice!” Mo Shengyun shouted. “Is Brother Xichen outside?”
“Of course the groom is here!”
“Does the groom like the bride?”
The groomsmen shouted in unison, “Of course he does!”
“How much do you like her?” Mo Shengge p.r.i.c.ked up her ears and deliberately made things difficult for him. “Brother Xichen, you can’t take the bride away without a confession!”
Mu Xichen laughed. Gu Mingye said, “Shengge, don’t regret this!”
Mo Shengge pretended not to understand. “If there’s no confession, you can’t take the bride away!”
“Ok.” Mu Xichen’s voice was faint. “Let me think about it.”
“You have to think about it? That’s so insincere!” Mo Shengge hooted. Cheng Su laughed hysterically. Mo Shengyun also felt that Mo Shengge was evil.
Mu Xichen smiled and started slowly and clearly, “Ah Nian.”
“Shh!” Mo Shengge gestured to everyone. In a flash, the room fell silent.
