1611 Grand Finale: Extravagant Wedding

Night fell. The moon was veiled, and with the gentle breeze of the spring breeze, the stars seemed to have the fragrance of peach blossoms.

In a corner of Beijing, the two of them sat opposite each other in the small courtyard. Steam slowly rose, blocking their gazes.

“I didn’t expect it to be you.” The bottom of the cup touched the stone table with a crisp sound, breaking the silence of the night sky and the silence between the two of them.

Lin Qingyuan looked across quietly at Lin Qingdai, whom he had ignored all along. Killing intent flashed across his eyes, but in the end, he calmed down.

!!
In the ten years that Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan had disappeared, he had thought that the Jun family would completely sink. Who would have thought that the young child of the Jun family would barely hold on for so many years? Seeing that he was about to collapse, Jun Shiling actually returned.

Over the years, surpassing the Jun family had almost become an obsession in his heart. Seeing Jun Shiling return, the Jun family improved day by day. Lin Qingyuan threw caution to the wind and prepared to do his best and gamble at Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan’s wedding.

Who would have thought that at the last moment, his good younger brother would actually destroy everything?

Being stared at by Lin Qingyuan’s sharp gaze, Lin Qingdai’s expression was calm and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

Lin Qingdai had always been gentle and scholarly. However, at this moment, there was a completely different boldness and determination on his elegant face.

In fact, there was an indescribable gentleness hidden under his clear eyes.

Lin Qingyuan was a smart person. The moment he saw that gentleness, all his confusion was instantly answered.

It was because of Jiang Yun.

“Do you know? Jiang Yun has always dreamed of a peaceful life.” Before Lin Qingyuan could speak, Lin Qingdai began to speak.

A breeze blew past, bringing with it the fragrance of flowers in the night sky. In a daze, Lin Qingdai seemed to see the young lady from many years ago.

From the day he met Jiang Yun, Jiang Yun’s dream was something Lin Qingdai was willing to pursue at all costs.

Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan’s return meant that this short peace that had lasted for more than ten years was about to end. What was about to come was a battle that no one could protect themselves.

Lin Qingdai, this man who was ignored by everyone and relied on Jiang Yun to survive in the eyes of the outside world, quietly disintegrated the entire Lin family, causing this impending battle to end silently.

“Ha.” The truth had been torn apart, and Lin Qingyuan could not be bothered to maintain his calm on the surface. “You used your entire family behind you as a stepping stone for a woman. Can you face the Lin family’s ancestors?”

Lin Qingdai smiled and looked at Lin Qingyuan quietly. “From the day I was expelled from the Lin family, the Lin family’s ancestors have nothing to do with me.”

With that, Lin Qingdai left, leaving Lin Qingyuan alone.

The moment Lin Qingdai’s back disappeared at the door, the porcelain cup in the courtyard fell to the ground and emitted an ear-piercing sound in the night.

Hearing the shattering sound from the wall, Lin Qingdai’s face was expressionless. He slowly controlled the wheelchair forward until he left the door and suddenly stopped.

“Ah Yun, why are you here?” A sincere smile appeared in Lin Qingdai’s eyes as he reached out to Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun glanced at the courtyard calmly, then walked forward and draped a thin blanket over Lin Qingdai. “I saw that it’s late and you weren’t back, so I came to take a look.”

“It’s nothing. A friend from before said that he wanted to visit me. We chatted for a while and lost track of time. I’m sorry.” Lin Qingdai held Jiang Yun’s hand and gently stroked it to comfort her.

“Mm.” Jiang Yun stood behind Lin Qingdai and pushed the wheelchair slowly forward. “I’m fine, but…”

Jiang Yun stopped halfway through her sentence. Lin Qingdai waited for a while but did not hear anything else. Just as he was about to ask what was wrong, he heard Jiang Yun speak.

“I just miss you.” Jiang Yun’s voice was very soft, but in the silent night, it smashed into Lin Qingdai’s heart like a thunderclap.

Over the years, they had respected each other and were the most model couple in the eyes of the outside world. Jiang Yun had also become the most perfect wife.

However, Jiang Yun had never said anything like today.

After being shocked, Lin Qingdai instantly turned around to look at Jiang Yun, but Jiang Yun covered his eyes.

“Don’t look. Go home first.” Jiang Yun’s voice was a little nervous. “It’s cold at night.”

“Okay.” The corners of Lin Qingdai’s lips curled up. He slowly turned around and sat down. “It’s indeed quite cold. Let’s go home.”

“Mm.” Jiang Yun retracted her hand and supported the wheelchair towards the parking lot.

The moonlight poured down, dyeing their backs with a peaceful glow…

…

The night before the wedding seemed especially long.

This was already the tenth time Xia Wanyuan could not help but look at the time. She frowned slightly. “Is this watch broken? Why is it only one now?”

Jun Shiling smiled and hugged Xia Wanyuan. “Nervous?”

Xia Wanyuan raised an eyebrow. “How is that possible? I’m just looking at the time.”

“Really?” Looking at Xia Wanyuan, Jun Shiling could not help but laugh. “Then let’s go to sleep.”

“I’m not tired.” Xia Wanyuan coughed lightly and could not help but look at the time.

Although she had lived for a few lifetimes, this was the first time she had gotten married. Even though she had been married to Jun Shiling for many years, she could not suppress her anticipation and nervousness.

She, who had always had a regular schedule, naturally could not sleep.

Jun Shiling did not expose her. He held her hand and walked out the door. “Since you can’t sleep, go and see someone.”

“Who?” Xia Wanyuan was a little curious.

All the guests had already arrived in Beijing and were properly placed in the hotel. They were only waiting to arrive at the wedding venue tomorrow. Who would come to the manor in the middle of the night now?

As Xia Wanyuan followed Jun Shiling out, she ran through it in her mind. Soon, a guess appeared in her heart.

“Is it…” Xia Wanyuan was halfway through her sentence when Jun Shiling stopped. Xia Wanyuan stopped with him. Following Jun Shiling’s gaze, Xia Wanyuan saw the person standing not far away.

“Sister, long time no see.”

“Xia Yu?” Consistent with Xia Wanyuan’s guess, a smile appeared on her face as she walked towards Xia Yu. “You’re back.”

“Mm.” Living in the desert all year round, Xia Yu’s facial features were more tenacious than before. However, when he smiled, he revealed a row of neat white teeth, still filled with youth like many years ago. “Congratulations on the wedding.”

“It’s good that you’re back.” Xia Wanyuan patted Xia Yu, who was already a head taller than her. “How long are you back this time? Let’s have a good gathering.”

“A month’s leave.” In front of Xia Wanyuan, Xia Yu was always very dependent. “I can stay in the manor the whole time.”

“Okay.” Seeing the fatigue on Xia Yu’s face, Xia Wanyuan thought that he must have come here the moment he landed and must be tired now. “Go and rest first. We’ll talk tomorrow.”

“Okay.” After more than twenty hours of running around, Xia Yu was indeed exhausted. He nodded and bade farewell to Xia Wanyuan before going to the guest room to rest.

After Xia Yu left, Jun Shiling pulled Xia Wanyuan over and whispered into her ear, “I’m afraid you can’t catch up with others tomorrow.”

“Mm?”

“After all, you’re my bride in the day and at night.”

Xia Wanyuan reacted for a second and finally realized what Jun Shiling was saying. She glanced at Jun Shiling angrily. “I’m going to sleep.”

“Mm.” Jun Shiling did not continue to tease Xia Wanyuan this time and quietly followed her back to the bedroom.

However, just as Xia Wanyuan was already lying on the bed and closing her eyes to sleep, Jun Shiling suddenly said faintly, “Madam, you do have to rest well. After all, you probably won’t be able to sleep tomorrow night.”

Xia Wanyuan’s eyes were still closed, as if she had already fallen asleep. However, the dazzling red hue gradually spread from her neck to her face.

Jun Shiling stood at the side and watched quietly, his eyes filled with smiles.

He estimated in his heart that Xia Wanyuan was about to explode. A second before Xia Wanyuan opened her eyes, he quickly lay beside her and turned off the light. “Alright, sleep. It’s late.”

“You…” Xia Wanyuan had just opened her mouth when Jun Shiling hugged her. “I was wrong, Madam. Goodnight.”

Two seconds later, Xia Wanyuan’s voice sounded in the night.

“Hmph.”

Hearing Xia Wanyuan’s soft snort, Jun Shiling laughed. He lowered his head and gently kissed Xia Wanyuan. Sensing Xia Wanyuan’s hug, the smile on Jun Shiling’s face widened.

Not long after, the room fell completely silent. Only beautiful dreams flowed quietly.

…

The next day, the sky had just lit up when Beijing, which had been silent the entire night, woke up.

The people who woke up in the morning passed by the palace standing in the center of Beijing and were very surprised to discover that the barrier outside had been removed at some point, revealing the red silk that fluttered in the sky.

Spring in Beijing was originally filled with colorful flowers. However, at this moment, the bustling world was covered in red.

The two sides of the road were filled with roses that stretched as far as the eye could see. A faint fragrance spread between the sky and the earth.

Just as everyone was discussing this magical scene in surprise, someone suddenly exclaimed, “Look!”

Everyone looked over. The palace door was slowly pushed open, and a wide red carpet spread from the main hall to the door. The red carpet was filled with red roses, and the edges of the petals were carefully inlaid with gold, shining in the morning sunlight.

“Oh my god, which family is so generous in filming? This prop is too luxurious.”

“What filming? Is there no Internet at your house? Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan are getting married today. This should be a wedding venue.”

“Wedding?” Hearing the person beside him say this, the passerby was shocked. “Wedding here? How is that possible? Rich people have special privileges?”

“Brother, these words don’t sound good. It’s true that Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan are rich, but among so many rich people, only the two of them can hold a wedding here. With their contributions, it’s not too much to do anything.”

Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling were passionate about charity. After the two of them disappeared for more than ten years, the Jun Corporation would take out a huge sum of money every year to do charity and pray for the two of them.

Hence, in the hearts of ordinary people, Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan had an extremely good reputation. Holding a wedding in this palace, which usually seemed like a fantasy, became acceptable to Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan.

The originally shocked crowd did not ask further after hearing the explanation. Instead, they focused their attention on this wedding.

“This is the first time I’ve seen such a scene. Even the outside is so beautiful. How beautiful must the inside be?”

However, no matter how rich everyone’s imagination was, they did not expect this wedding to be so grand and leave behind so many interesting legends for future generations.
