Chapter 1258 A Strange Wedding (1)
Ji Mingyue struck her head. “I’ve been hesitating between work and family matters, and those people kept telling me things that made me so confused. Your Second Cousin will be home from work soon; I had better go home now!”
With that, she grabbed her two sons and hurried home. She was probably going home to cook and be nice to her husband.
Gu Qingyao did not know whether to laugh or to cry!
Time pa.s.sed swiftly. Over the past few days, the entire capital had been watching to see what the Huo family would do. Would they really go through with the wedding?
One must know that for the past few days, many people had been secretly trying to free Huo Tianning from Mo Beihan in order to win the Huo family’s favor!
The Qiao and Qin families were back in China, and the wealth that they brought to the Gu and Mo families had aroused a great deal of envy. The Huo family’s arrival had set many people thinking.
They wanted an alliance with the Huo family, and this was a good opportunity to do the Huo family a favor in hopes that the Huo family would belong to them.
At the moment, the people in the capital had not found out what had happened overseas. They still thought that the Huo family was a huge financial group!
Unfortunately, after delaying the wedding for many days, Huo Tianning still was not released.
The Huo family prepared for the wedding, and the day soon arrived.
Ye Yihong was finally marrying into a n.o.ble family. She was too excited to sleep. When the Huo family sent the bridal gifts, the Ye family placed them in the courtyard so that everyone could admire them. They were really showing
off.
But it was precisely because of the Ye family’s actions that so many people heard about the incident and discussed it. It drew an increasing amount of attention.
At last, Mo Beihan released Huo Tianning three days before the wedding.
He dumped Huo Tianning along a public road, not too far from the Huo family’s front door. Everyone who lived in the area would certainly use that road.
That day, Huo Tianning lay on the road like a corpse.
He had a broken leg, a broken arm, and was covered with blood!
Huo Tianxiang felt helpless. When he saw the state that his brother was in, he did not feel pity. He only felt terror.
He brought Huo Tianning home and immediately got doctors to work through the night to treat him and clean his wounds. Huo Tianning’s head was incredibly swollen. The Mo subordinates certainly had not held back. They had even arrogantly left many whip marks on his face.
Huo Tianning rested at home for three days. Three days later, he was still in terrible pain, but he obediently crawled out of bed to get married.
He had no choice. During the time he had spent in the Mo house, he had been beaten until he was terrified. He was completely compliant now!
The Ye house was bustling that day. Over the past three days, everyone in the capital had heard that the Mo family had let Huo Tianning go. They even knew that Huo Tianning had been beaten so badly he could not get out of bed. Many people were speculating whether Huo Tianning would appear in person to fetch the bride?
Hehehe!
He was marrying Ye Yihong!
This woman was very famous within a select circle. She was a socialite! Huo Tianning was the young master of a n.o.ble family and he was marrying a woman like that. Tsk, tsk,
tsk!
They discussed it, expressed their opinions, and made mocking remarks. But no one dared to inquire into what happened. There were even more people who were waiting to watch the show.
It was such a strange wedding, but it miraculously took place amidst the odd atmosphere. Huo Tianning was almost half-dead, but he obediently partic.i.p.ated in the bridal procession. He even personally alighted and went into the Ye house to fetch her.
For the rest of his life, Huo Tianning would remember the expression on the faces of the crowd when he emerged from the car.
He had rested for three days, but he had not improved much. His face was still as swollen as a pig’s head.
