Chu Yuanxi hesitated. In the end, his love for Chu Wanwan had broken through everything. However, he still hesitated. “Chu Wanwan, are you serious? Are you really willing to come with me? I’ll trust you one last time. If you lie to me again, I won’t trust you anymore.”
Although he said that, he knew that if Chu Wanwan used the same trick again, he might still believe it.
“Of course it’s true. Could it be fake?”
Although Chu Wanwan felt a little guilty, she did not dare to say anything.
She felt that Chu Yuanxi was a complete lunatic. If she said anything wrong, she would be the one suffering.
“We used to have a good relationship. How could I lie to you now?” she quickly added, afraid that Chu Yuanxi would not believe her.
“Don’t worry. As long as you let me complete the ritual, I’ll definitely leave with you. But think about it. If you kidnap me now and stop me from continuing the ritual, I’ll hate you instead. Even if you imprison me for a lifetime, even if you treat me well, I won’t be moved. Instead, I’ll feel that everything that happened before is a lie.”
Her words were clear and logical. Chu Yuanxi could not help but listen to them. He nodded and said, “Alright then. I’ll do as you say.”
As he spoke, he put Chu Wanwan down. He glanced at the servant girl and untied the ropes on her body.
The servant girl immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Chu Yuanxi.
“Thank you, Young Master. You are a magnanimous person. Miss Wanwan will definitely fulfill her promise.”
Although she said so, she understood in her heart.
It was impossible for Chu Wanwan to really make it.
She could tell what Chu Wanwan was thinking. She was deeply in love with Jiang Ming. It was a friendship that she had never had with Chu Yuanxi before.
“I’ll wait for you at the usual place after your ritual.”
Chu Yuanxi looked at Chu Wanwan with deep affection, as if he could not see the servant girl at all.
He had a wonderful dream in his heart. He had always wanted to have a wonderful married life with Chu Wanwan. His wish could finally be fulfilled.
As he thought about it, he could not help but feel anxious.
He hoped that the ceremony would end soon. That way, he could be with Chu Wanwan sooner.
Chu Wanwan nodded and pretended to be full of happiness. “Chu Yuanxi, we will grow old together.”
Chu Yuanxi turned around and left. Chu Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief. Then, her entire body swayed as she sat down.
She really could not imagine what would have happened to her if Chu Yuanxi had not believed her and had taken her away.
This marriage was a big deal. If this ceremony was interrupted just like that, she would be sad for the rest of her life.
Even if she did it again, she would not feel as good as this time. She could finally continue the ritual.
The servant girl saw through Chu Wanwan’s thoughts and comforted her. “Miss, get up quickly. You still have to tidy up your clothes and headdress. Your clothes and hair are already dirty. That young master has already left and won’t be coming over for the time being. Don’t worry. Besides, after the ceremony is over, Jiu Zhu will definitely protect you as your husband. Chu Yuanxi will not be able to abduct you again no matter how hard he tries. I can tell that Jiu Zhu is much more powerful than Chu Yuanxi. Chu Yuanxi was only able to kidnap you because Jiu Zhu was still preparing the ceremony.”
Chu Wanwan nodded and raised her hand again.
“Help me stand up. My legs are a little weak.”
She still had some lingering fear in her heart. It was difficult to imagine the consequences.
The servant girl patted Chu Wanwan’s shoulder and comforted her. She then helped her up, turned around, and brought her to a chair. She then began to tidy up her clothes and hair accessories.
The servant girl’s hands were very skillful. In a short while, Chu Wanwan returned to her gorgeous appearance.
Meanwhile, Chu Yuanxi had snuck into a bush in the garden.
He was secretly delighted. The ceremony was almost halfway through, and he would be able to leave with Chu Wanwan soon. He could afford to wait for a little bit.
At this time, Chu Wanwan had already put on a red veil. She was supported by the servant girl and waited quietly for Jiang Ming to come over.
Her mood also changed, and she was extremely excited.
She could finally be the bride of Jiang Ming.
At this moment, Jiang Ming, who was wearing a red robe, had already mounted his horse and was heading toward Chu Wanwan.
Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe wanted to find the Yellow Gall Grass before it was too late, so they went back and forth in the stronghold and even found the village chief’s room.
“No?”
“No.”
Shaking their heads, the two of them could only come out first.
However, just as they took two steps out of the door, they heard a voice behind him.
The two of them were immediately frozen and did not dare to turn around.
They were all too familiar with this voice. It was the village chief.
As expected, the village chief walked over from behind and looked at the two of them.
Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe looked at the village chief’s sharp gaze and felt a little guilty. They did not know what to say.
“We…”
“Let’s see if there’s anything else we can help you with,” Yuan Hehe said quickly.
“Yes.”
“There’s no need. You guys go have fun first.” The village chief nodded.
“Alright.”
Yuan Hehe nodded, grabbed Sikong Wuyuan’s hand, and ran away.
The village chief looked at the backs of these two people and his throat moved. He frowned, but then he turned around and left.
“Today is a big day.”
There seemed to be something wrong with these two people. They seemed to be here for the Yellow Gall Grass.
Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe, who were lucky enough to escape, ran to a corner before they dared to stop. The two of them held their chests and panted, feeling that it was a close call.
“Yuan Hehe, are we alright?”
Sikong Wuyuan became worried.
He leaned against the tree and straightened his body.
Not far ahead, the people in the village were busy celebrating today’s wedding.
“It’s okay. It should be… Alright.”
Yuan Hehe had intended to appease Sikong Wuyuan, but he was not sure.
“Why don’t we see where Jiang Ming is?”
The two of them thought about it and decided to look for Jiang Ming.
They turned around and saw Qiu Zeshen standing not far away.
Qiu Zeshen stared at the two of them without saying anything. His expression was dark.
“Sikong Wuyuan…”
“Don’t be afraid!”
Before anyone came over, the two of them whispered.
Qiu Zeshen took a few steps forward. Like a magnet, he pulled the two of them closer.
“Mr. Qiu,” Yuan Hehe said carefully, almost wanting to retreat.
This person suddenly laughed, causing Yuan Hehe and the other two to feel inexplicably flustered.
“Is there anything you need?”
“There is indeed something.” In contrast, Qiu Zeshen was calm. “Can you guys come with me to the garden for a chat?”
