The woman standing by the door had a head of long and straight black hair and was wearing a long light pink dress. She did not look the prettiest, but was very clean-looking, bright and she was more beautiful than a crystal.
Tang Ci knew this woman. She was not a socialite, but had grown up with the Mo Ji and Mo Shi brothers in the slums.
Her relationship with the brothers were beyond the reach of any woman outside.
Mo Ji looked at the woman at the door and the eyes under his glasses turned gentle. “I’ll be right there.” Then, he looked at Tang Ci.
Tang Ci also looked at him, her beautiful cat-liked eyes bright and challenging.
Mo Ji’s face was expressionless and seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black smoke, gloomy and cold. “After marrying Mo Shi, behave yourself and treat him well.”
Before Tang Ci could say anything, he had already turned and left.
Looking at his tall and cold back, Tang Ci furrowed her eyebrows thoughtfully.
…
When An Feng reached the church, almost all the guests had arrived.
“Sister An, Sister An…”
Hearing Bernice calling her, An Feng broke out of her thoughts on Tang Ci and looked at Bernice.
Bernice and Helian Xiao were sitting together and there was an empty seat beside her, which must be for her.
Helian Xiao was looking at his business phone and hearing Bernice calling her, he did not look up, the side of his face serious and dark.
Looking at his slightly cold attitude, An Feng felt a bitterness in her heart.
They had an intimate relationship last night. Why was he still so indifferent?
An Feng walked over. Bernice wanted to let An Feng and Helian Xiao to sit together, but An Feng shook her head and sat beside Bernice.
Bernice looked at An Feng and then at Helian Xiao.
What was the matter with these two?
Did they really not get together last and had a fight? Bernice looked at An Feng’s neck and saw that she was wearing a scarf. Judging from her rich experience, something must have happened.
“Sister An, where did you go this morning? My brother’s expression is dark like he had taken gunpowder when he did not see you!”
An Feng felt like Bernice knew what happened last night with her gaze and she said with a tingle in her scalp, “I went to see Tang Ci this morning.”
Speaking of Tang Ci, Bernice sighed. “It’s not easy for the girl. I heard that her daddy received several billions from the Mo family. This is equivalent to selling his daughter!”
An Feng thought of how Second Young Master Mo had thrown an ashtray at Tang Ci and was upset and pained. “She is also a child with a hard life.” After marrying into the Mo family, her days ahead would not be much better.
An Feng and Bernice were whispering, but Helian Xiao did not say anything.
Noticing his indifference, An Feng was confused and uneasy. Why did he seem to change after a night?
If she remembered correctly, he told her last night that he would treat her well in the future and that he would be by her side every rainy night, not letting her be afraid anymore.
Did he not want to treasure her anymore once he had gotten it?
An Feng had a complicated feeling in her heart.
Soon, the wedding of Tang Ci and Second Young Master Mo began.
Second Young Master was pushed up to the priest by Mo Ji. Then, Tang Ci walked alone on the carpet that was covered with rose petals.
The priest announced the vows and they exchanged rings.
An Feng felt terrible as she looked at Tang Ci bending down and kissing Second Young Master Mo’s face that was burned beyond recognition.
After the wedding ceremony, the guests went to the hotel to attend the wedding banquet. They drank the wine toasted by newly weds, and An Feng looked towards the table Helian Xiao was at.
She did not know when he had left the VIP table and Bernice was not there as well.
An Feng was sitting at the table of the bride’s relatives and she had not said anything to Helian Xiao when she came out of the church.
She also did not know where she had offended him. If she was honest, she felt a little panicked by the change of his attitude overnight. But since he wanted to ignore her, she would not take the initiative to talk to him either!
An Feng did not want to think about it anymore and she stood up to go to the washroom.
Coming out from the washroom, she was about to enter the banquet hall when suddenly a slightly bloated figure adorned with jewels and pearls blocked in front of her.
“You’re not young anymore, are you? Why are you still acting pure and arrogant?”
The woman said in a strange tone, glaring at An Feng furiously.
An Feng thought the woman had gotten the wrong person, but when she looked at her clearly, she thought the woman seemed familiar. Was it the woman who had pulled Zhou Li’s ear yesterday? It was Zhou Li’s wife.
Knowing that she was deliberately making it difficult for her, An Feng ignored her. She also did not want to make trouble at Tang Ci’s wedding banquet so she turned to leave.
She had not expected that several women were surrounding her from behind. All of them were adorned in jewels and were clearly wealthy ladies just by looking at them.
“You’re trying to leave, just like that? You’re guilty, aren’t you? Seducing my husband, you’re really shameless!” The woman pulled at An Feng’s clothes. “Last night Zhou Li didn’t go back to our room. Were you together with him at night?”
An Feng shook off the woman’s hand, lowering her eyes. “Madam, I have nothing to do with your husband!”
The woman caught a glimpse of the scarf around An Feng’s neck. “You’re wearing a scarf to cover intimate marks, right? Did you two have an affair last night?”
The woman’s voice was so loud that many guests looked over towards them.
An Feng furrowed her eyebrows. Faced with this kind of unreasonable woman, it was useless to reason with her. “I was with a man last night, but it was not your husband.”
“Huh?” The woman did not believe it. Taking out her phone, she found a picture. It was an image of when Zhou Li had hugged her outside the dressing room earlier. The woman’s eyes were full of anger. “You dare say that the woman in Zhou Li’s arms is not you? Yesterday, he looked like he was under a spell when he saw you. He didn’t return last night and even hugged you in the morning. Who would believe you when you say there’s nothing between the both of you?”
The woman pulled off the scarf around An Feng’s neck roughly. An Feng wanted to push her away, but the other ladies were surrounding her. An Feng was smaller than them and was unable to handle several powerful rich ladies. Very soon, the scarf was pulled away from her neck.
Seeing the marks on An Feng’s fair neck, the expression of Mrs Zhou changed. “Slut, you still say you haven’t been with Zhou Li? The marks on your neck are clearly made by a man!”
An Feng had always been good-tempered, but even good-tempered people would be angered sometimes. When Mrs Zhou pulled the scarf off An Feng’s neck, it was without doubt, a kind of humiliation to her.
Seeing a waiter passing by the door, An Feng picked up a glass of red wine and splashed it at Mrs Zhou’s face. “I was with Helian Xiao last night. How can your Zhou Li compare to Helian Xiao?”
Helian Xiao? Mrs Zhou was stunned at first, then she laughed sarcastically. “Oh? You say you were with the world’s richest man last night? He’s handsome and rich and any woman would flock to him with a curl of his finger. Who are you to say something so ludicrous?”
Even if An Feng looked younger among her peers, she was not a beauty. How would Helian Xiao be interested in her?
