In the previous life, the people of Xun Feng attacked Jiangcheng by blending in with the guests celebrating and the accompanying team.
Especially Wen Chengjun, who only appeared on the battlefield at the very last moment.
So, when I saw Wen Chengjun standing at the door with a big red invitation in hand, smiling brightly as he handed me the gift, my heart sank halfway, and I stood there dumbfounded.
"What's wrong? Not happy to see me?" Wen Chengjun knowingly asked.
I stood at the door, blocking the guests who were about to enter, even Jiang Chengyue, who was welcoming guests on the side, sensed something amiss and quickly came over to greet Wen Chengjun.
It's worth noting that Wen Chengjun of Xun Feng has never shown his face in the martial arts world.
If I were to point him out on the spot, even if the Jiang family listened to my words with caution, there would still be a risk of my identity being exposed.
At that time, whether the Jiang family could overlook past grievances and accept me would be uncertain.
"So, you're Brother Wen from the Qing Shan Sect. My apologies for not recognizing your sect's emblem, as my brother-in-law doesn't move around in the martial world. Please forgive us." Jiang Chengyue took the invitation handed by Wen Chengjun, stepped aside, and ushered him in.
Wen Chengjun stood in front of me, his eyes scrutinizing me, his face half-smiling, as if waiting to see my reaction.
I clenched my fists, bowed slightly, and gestured to invite him in.
As Wen Chengjun walked past me, the wide sleeves of his robe intentionally or unintentionally brushed against my bright red wedding gown, as if warning me of something.
【Madman!】
My hands trembled slightly, suppressing my inner fear and anger.
Wen Chengjun's appearance completely disrupted my inner peace, to the point that during the ceremony, my mind was filled with confusion.
The large red silk ribbon on my chest slipped off, fluttered to the ground, and tangled in the elaborate and heavy dress of Abi.
Abi, unsteady on her feet, rushed towards me and knocked me down.
The red veil slowly fell off, revealing Abi's exquisitely made-up face devoid of any shyness or joy, replaced by a cold and frosty vigilance.
My hands rested on her waist, feeling lost.
"A-Nian?" Abi called softly, but it sounded more like a sigh.
I snapped back to reality, and the unfamiliar expression on Abi's face had vanished.
"The newlyweds are so inseparable, so deeply in love, they can't bear to get up!" The wedding matron teased amidst the chaos, and the people around us rushed forward, helping us both up.
"The ceremony is complete, escort them to the bridal chamber!" The wedding matron announced loudly.
Abi's palm, once soft and warm, now felt cold and stiff.
I took her hand and led her to the new room.
