4430 When Will the Ancestor Arrive?
After arriving at the wedding venue with her father, Ye Qiang Wei parted ways with him, saying that she was going to accompany her best friend, w.a.n.g Luo Yu, since w.a.n.g Luo Yu was getting married today.
Ye Cheng naturally did not have any objections. After learning that w.a.n.g Luo Yu’s husband, ‘Li Feng’, was a peerless prodigy, he naturally hoped his daughter would have an even better relations.h.i.+p with w.a.n.g Luo Yu. He nodded in agreement as soon as his daughter spoke up.
Following that, Ye Qiang Wei left, accompanied by the old woman who followed her like a shadow.
Ye Cheng might not know his daughter’s thoughts, but the old woman, who was always Ye Qiang Wei, could vaguely guess her thoughts. She said, “Miss, some people are only meant to be a pa.s.serby in our lives. Don’t take this matter too seriously.”
!!
The old woman was aware that Ye Qiang Wei had a crush on Duan Ling Tian. Although Ye Qiang Wei did not admit it, it was not hard for her to tell since she herself had felt this way as well in the past.
“Grandma, why didn’t he tell me his real name?” Ye Qiang Wei asked, clearly disappointed. She thought that his name was Li Feng, not Duan Ling Tian. She wanted to know why had lied to her and wondered if she was not worthy of knowing his real name.
The old woman shook her head and said, “Miss, don’t overthink this matter. Since Young Master Li Feng didn’t reveal his name, I’m sure he has his own reasons and concerns. You should understand this. He’ll soon be Miss Luo Yu’s husband. You’ll be meeting him after this…”
There was a hidden meaning behind the old woman’s words. She was trying to remind Ye Qiang Wei that Duan Ling Tian was getting married, hoping that Ye Qiang Wei would stop thinking about him. She was aware that Ye Qiang Wei was arrogant and had never taken a liking to any man in the past. Duan Ling Tian was the first person Ye Qiang Wei liked.
Ye Qiang Wei’s delicate body trembled slightly as she said, “That’s right… He’ll soon be Sister Luo Yu’s husband. He’ll be my best friend’s husband from today onward. Grandma, I’m fine… Let’s go and look for Luo Yu. Since her brother’s gone, I’ll accompany her on her brother’s behalf and witness her getting happily married.”
The old woman sighed in relief inwardly upon hearing Ye Qiang Wei’s words and hurriedly agreed. It seemed to her that Ye Qiang Wei was going to let go of her feelings. Even if Ye Qiang Wei could not completely let go yet, she was certain that Ye Qiang Wei would be able to do so with time.
…
“Sister Qiang Wei!” w.a.n.g Luo Yu called out when she saw Ye Qiang Wei.
At this time, w.a.n.g Luo Yu was getting ready at the back courtyard of the w.a.n.g clan’s estate. She was surrounded by a group of people who were helping her to get ready. Three or four women were helping her to apply her makeup at this time. Although it was not done yet, she looked far more beautiful than she usually did. If Duan Ling Tian were here, he would have been stunned by her appearance.
Even Ye Qiang Wei’s eyes could not help but light up when she saw how beautiful w.a.n.g Luo Yu was. She said with a smile, filled with praise, “Sister Luo Yu, you’re so beautiful.”
While the women continued to apply makeup for her, w.a.n.g Luo Yu smiled in response before she asked, “Sister Qiang Wei, since you came with Uncle Ye, you should’ve met Brother Li Feng, right?”
w.a.n.g Luo Yu knew that Ye Qiang Wei had been curious about Duan Ling Tian. Unfortunately, Duan Ling Tian did not want to meet Ye Qiang Wei previously. Today, Ye Qiang Wei finally got to meet him.
Ye Qiang Wei nodded. “I did. Sister Luo Yu, do you remember when I told you I was saved by a young man during my journey here?”
A hint of fear could be seen on w.a.n.g Luo Yu’s face as she nodded and said, “Yes. Fortunately, that young man saved you, Sister Qiang Wei. Otherwise, I really couldn’t imagine what would have happened to you…”
When w.a.n.g Luo Yu thought about the incident again, she could not help but feel frightened.
In fact, Ye Qiang Wei also knew that w.a.n.g Luo Yu would be frightened and worried. As such, when she just arrived, she did not tell w.a.n.g Luo Yu about this matter. It was not until many days later that she mentioned this matter when they were chatting.
Unsurprisingly, w.a.n.g Luo Yu had been concerned and frightened when she learned that her best friend was almost kidnapped by the members of the Blood Sea Organization. She was truly thankful that a young man happened to pa.s.s by and saved Ye Qiang Wei.
“I saw him again today,” Ye Qiang Wei said.
“Hm?” w.a.n.g Luo Yu was slightly confused. After a moment, she asked curiously, “Sister Qiang Wei, is a guest at my and Brother Li Feng’s wedding? Did you greet him? Did he tell you his name?”
Previously, Ye Qiang Wei had told w.a.n.g Luo Yu that the other party was very aloof and refused to tell Ye Qiang Wei his name. At that time, she was surprised. After all, she could not imagine what kind of person would not be moved by Ye Qiang Wei’s beauty. She even wondered if the other party did not like women.
A complicated expression appeared on Ye Qiang Wei’s face before she said with a sigh, “He’s not a guest at your wedding. He’s your Brother Li Feng.”
w.a.n.g Luo Yu was stunned.
‘Brother Li Feng? No, Brother Duan? Brother Duan is the one who saved Sister Qiang Wei?’
A complicated expression appeared on w.a.n.g Luo Yu’s face as well when she learned that the young man who traveled all the way to Blue Dawn City to fulfill his promise to her brother met Ye Qiang Wei before she did and even rescued Ye Qiang Wei. She also felt even more complicated when she saw a hint of loneliness in Ye Qiang Wei’s eyes.
‘What a twist of fate… As it turns out, Brother Duan is the one who saved you… Moreover, it’s clear that you have a crush on him,’ w.a.n.g Luo Yu thought to herself. At the same time, her eyes flashed slightly. She wanted to tell Ye Qiang Wei the truth about Duan Ling Tian and how he had come to bring her away from the w.a.n.g clan. However, at the last minute, she quickly held back. She remembered that Duan Ling Tian had reminded her not to reveal his ident.i.ty.
In the end, w.a.n.g Luo Yu forced a smile on her face and said, feeling guilty, “What a coincidence. I didn’t expect the person who saved you to be Brother Li Feng. He didn’t mention this matter to me before…”
Ye Qiang Wei returned to her senses and quickly changed the topic to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere. At this moment, she regretted expressing her admiration for her savior to w.a.n.g Luo Yu previously.
w.a.n.g Luo Yu and Ye Qiang Wei continued to chat as w.a.n.g Luo Yu got ready.
Not too long after, someone rushed over and said, “Miss Luo Yu, it’s almost time. Let’s get ready and go out.”
The people around w.a.n.g Luo Yu became even more busy putting on the finis.h.i.+ng touches before they helped w.a.n.g Luo Yu out of the courtyard.
Ye Qiang Wei stayed with w.a.n.g Luo Yu, planning to represent w.a.n.g Luo Yu’s brother and watch her marry Duan Ling Tian.
…
At this time, Duan Ling Tian was already waiting at the side of the venue.
According to wedding customs of the Blue Dawn City’s w.a.n.g clan, Duan Ling Tian and w.a.n.g Luo Yu would enter the hall from two different entrances and meet at the high platform, facing the guests seated below. After that, they would have to go through a series of ceremonies. After the ceremonies were over, the wedding would be completed, and they would toast and entertain the guests.
The wedding was held in a large hall in the w.a.n.g clan’s estate. It was decorated with lights and festoons.
At this time, Meng Yu Zheng, who was seated at one of the banquet tables, looked at Tan Xiu Teng and asked excitedly through Voice Transmission, “Uncle Tan, is… is the ancestor really coming?”
Tan Xiu Teng nodded and replied through Voice Transmission, “Yes. The lord said that he wants to meet the young man since the w.a.n.g clan dared to refuse the Meng clan and him, who’s now a supreme powerhouse.”
Meng Yu Zheng’s eyes brightened. He was like a drowning man who was suddenly given a raft. He asked impatiently, “When will the ancestor arrive?”
