Chapter 560 Twists and Turns
Flaming Qilin had always been a hot-tempered person. After hearing Yan Wushuang’s words, he wanted to lock down the Qianlong Mountain and find the people of the Liu Family.
Yan Wushuang stopped him. “It’s Chu Xun’s wedding today. Don’t make trouble. We just need to defend ourselves.”
Then they told Gao Mohan and the others about the news.
“How about notifying the disciples to be more careful. Also, let’s see if we can find the people of the Liu Family first and temporarily control them till the wedding ceremony ends.” Gao Mohan put forward this compromise calmly.
“In my opinion, why don’t we lock down the mountain directly, find them out, and then kill them?” Flaming Qilin held a cigar between his lips, with a murderous look on his face, and looked like a hooligan.
“No, it’s useless to find them. They haven’t yet made any trouble. If they say that they come here to congratulate Brother Chu, then it will be inappropriate for us to catch them,” Gao Mohan said.
Flaming Qilin muttered, “What a boring speech. If Chu Xun were here, he would agree to my idea.”
Gao Mohan and the others smiled bitterly. Flaming Qilin’s killing intent was strong.
“Let’s do as Brother Gao said. The wedding is the most important thing today. Let’s talk about other things after it’s over,” Yan Wushuang said.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
They issued one order after another.
Gao Mohan confirmed the time. It was almost time for the wedding ceremony to begin.
After Chu Tianhe and his wife had taken their seats, Gao Mohan stepped forward and shouted, “The auspicious time has arrived. Bridegroom and brides, please come out.”
The square suddenly quieted down, and all the guests took their seats.
The red carpet spread to the end of the square.
Chu Xun, Jing Hong, and Hua Qingwu appeared in wedding clothes, holding onto a red silk cloth.
The red silk cloth was called “Hand in Hand”, suggesting that they were destined to get married.
At this time, countless petals fell from the sky.
All the guests stood up and congratulated Chu Xun.
There were so many guests that Chu Xun had to respond to them one by one.
Thus, it took Chu Xun several minutes to walk just 10 meters with Jing Hong and Hua Qingwu.
Gao Mohan was anxious. If it went on like this, the auspicious time would be over soon.
“Ladies and gentlemen, the auspicious time waits for no one. After the ceremony is over, you can tease him as you like,” Gao Mohan had no choice but to shout.
Everyone quieted down.
Flaming Qilin, Yan Wushuang, Yue Jingchou, and the others followed Chu Xun from a distance.
“Why do I feel we’re like weirdos?” Yan Wushuang muttered.
“I think so too,” Flaming Qilin nodded in agreement.
“Are we silly? Why do we become groomsmen for the wedding?”
The three strangely dressed fellows couldn’t step forward any further, so they blended into the crowd.
Chu Xun and two brides came to the front of the hall.
“Mr. Chu Xun, are you willing to marry the two nice, gentle, and beautiful young ladies next to you?” Gao Mohan asked.
The corners of Chu Xun’s mouth twitched. “Is the wedding Huaxia-style or Western-style?” he asked.
“You aren’t allowed to speak except to answer yes or no.” Gao Mohan looked stern, but he felt happy secretly.
Chu Xun didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He shouldn’t have let these people prepare for the wedding for him.
“Yes.”
“Will you love and cherish them for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, till death do you part?” Gao Mohan asked.
The crowd burst into laughter.
Would such things like being poor, sick ever happen to Chu the Devil? Would he ever die?
Chu Xun was speechless and could only reply, “Yes.”
“Chu the Devil, can you promise to let the brides give birth to eight or ten babies within a year to satisfy the wishes of your parents?” Someone in the crowd shouted. Everyone looked over and saw Flaming Qilin.
The crowd burst into laughter.
Chu Xun’s face suddenly darkened. “Eight or ten babies? It sounds like a sow giving birth to piglets.”
“Can I hit him?” Chu Xun asked.
“You’re the bridegroom and you can’t do anything violent,” Gao Mohan said seriously.
“Well, the ceremony will come to an end sooner or later,” Chu Xun muttered.
Gao Mohan stiffened. “Right, the ceremony will end sooner or later. I’d better restrain myself and not offend him.”
“All right, the wedding begins.” Gao Mohan shouted.
“First, bow to heaven and the earth.”
“Please wait,” Jing Hong and Hua Qingwu suddenly spoke.
Everyone present was stunned. What was going on?
Could it be that the brides were unwilling to marry Chu Xun?
Chu Xun looked at Gao Mohan. “Is there any other trick?”
Gao Mohan was also in confusion.
“Little Wu, don’t mess around.” Yan Lan reminded her. They were at the wedding, so she would not allow her to mess around.
“Don’t worry. The wedding ceremony will continue,” Jing Hong said. “It’s just that there is another bride. We have to wait for her. Otherwise, the wedding will be imperfect.”
Another bride?
Not to mention the guests at the scene, even Chu Xun himself was full of doubts. How could he not know that there was another bride?
Their parents looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.
“Jing Hong, Little Wu, what do you mean?” Chu Xun frowned.
“Honey, don’t worry. It’s a good thing for you.” Hua Qingwu pouted. As her head was covered with a red cloth, Chu Xun couldn’t see her expression.
Chu Xun had a vague idea in his heart. “Could it be...”
“The bride is coming,” Hua Qingwu pointed to the other end of the red carpet and said.
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed to and saw Tang Wenyan and his wife walking over with a graceful lady.
The “another bride” turned out to be Tang Rou.
Chu Xun froze. He had already guessed it, but he was still stunned when what he had thought came true.
Chu Tianhe, his wife, and others stood up directly.
“Congratulations.” All of a sudden, there were voices of congratulations.
Chu the Devil was really worth it. He married three brides at the same time, which was unprecedented.
“What are you doing?” Chu Xun asked Jing Hong and Hua Qingwu in a low voice.
“Getting married,” Jing Hong replied briefly.
“Honey, are you surprised?” Hua Qingwu asked.
“I’m shocked,” Chu Xun was speechless.
“Stop pretending. Your smile betrays you,” Hua Qingwu whispered disdainfully.
“Really?” Chu Xun touched the corner of his mouth and thought. “It’s not that obvious, is it?”
At this time, Tang Wenyan and his wife came to Chu Xun with Tang Rou.
“Little Xun, I’ll leave Tang Rou to be with you in the future,” Tang Wenyan said.
Chu Xun was a little confused.
“Old Tang, what are you doing?” Chu Tianhe was confused.
“Old Chu, we have known each other for long, right? Little Xun and Rourou have known each other since childhood. You know what they feel for each other, don’t you?” Tang Wenyan asked.
Chu Tianhe and Liu Ran looked at each other. They certainly knew that Tang Rou loved Chu Xun.
“Little Xun, what are you waiting for?” Tang Wenyan asked with a smile.
Chu Xun took Tang Rou’s hand blankly.
“It’s about time.” Gao Mohan urged them.
“Bow to heaven and the earth quickly...” Chu Tianhe said.
They still wanted the wedding ceremony to go smoothly, and they didn’t want to miss the auspicious time.
“I want you to promise the three of us that you’ll never fall in love with another woman, Chu Xun,” Jing Hong suddenly said.
“Yes, it is already our biggest concession to accept Tang Rou. If you dare to fall in love with another woman, the three of us will leave you forever,” Hua Qingwu continued.
“Brother Chu Xun, I’m sorry to put you in a dilemma,” Tang Rou said softly.
Chu Xun had mixed feelings. What had he done to deserve Jing Hong and Hua Qingwu’s such compromise?
No woman was willing to share her lover with other women, including Jing Hong and Hua Qingwu, but for his sake, they still chose to accept Tang Rou.
He suddenly turned around, looked around at the crowd, and said loudly, “I promise, and the heroes at the wedding are all witnesses.”
As soon as Chu Xun said that, Jade Rabbit, who was in the crowd, burst into tears. Her gem-like eyes lost their radiance as she quietly left the crowd.
“The wedding ceremony continues.”
“First bow to heaven and the earth.” Gao Mohan shouted.
“Second bow to parents. Bridegrooms and brides...”
“Wait a minute.”
Just when they prepared a bow for the last time, someone in the crowd suddenly interrupted Gao Mohan’s words.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old man with grey hair and beard coming forward with several young men.
The crowd subconsciously gave way to them.
Everyone was wondering who the old man was that dared to interrupt Chu Xun’s wedding.
Chu the Devil’s wedding ceremony had been full of twists and turns.
The expressions of Flaming Qilin and Yan Wushuang changed slightly. They stepped forward to stop the old man and his followers.
“How dare you interrupt the wedding? You are courting death!” Flaming Qilin’s eyes surged with killing intent.
The wedding was about to end, so they subconsciously let down the guard, which caused something to go wrong.
“My friend, you are at the wedding of Chu the Devil. Isn’t it too immoral for you to interrupt the wedding?” someone in the crowd asked.
The elder stroked his white beard and said with a bright smile, “Don’t get me wrong. We are not here to ruin the wedding but to congratulate Chu Xun. He is a descendant of the Liu Family. Without the witnesses from the Liu Family, his wedding doesn’t count at all.”
The Liu Family?
Everyone was surprised and looked at Chu Xun. They had never heard of Chu Xun’s relationship with the Liu Family.
“Who do you think you are? How dare you claim that Chu Xun is a descendant of your family? His surname is Chu, and he has nothing to do with the Liu Family,” Flaming Qilin said angrily. “You interrupted the wedding. If you don’t give us a reasonable explanation, we won’t let you get out of Qianlong Mountain today.”
The old man’s face darkened slightly. He stared at Flaming Qilin and said, “Young man, watch your mouth. I’m Liu Wenzheng. You only know that Chu Xun’s surname is Chu, but do you know that his mother’s surname is Liu, and her name is Liu Ran?”
The crowd was in an uproar after hearing the words. People of Chu Mansion knew that Chu Xun’s mother’s name was Liu Ran, but no one else knew about it.
Liu Wenzheng looked at Liu Ran and said, “Liu Ran, you are a descendant of the Liu Family. You should call me Elder Ancestor according to my seniority.”
Liu Ran was so angry that she was trembling all over.
“Shut up. My surname is Liu, but I have nothing to do with the Liu Family.” Thinking of what the Liu Family had done to them back then, Liu Ran could not help roaring.
“Liu Ran, I know the Liu Family in the secular world has hurt you and your son, but we didn’t know these things before. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have let them do this. I know you hate the Liu Family, but you can’t change your bloodline, can you?”
“Shut up. I’ll repeat the words. I have no relationship with your Liu Family. Get out of here.”
“Liu Ran, I know you have resentment in your heart. I came here today with great sincerity to ask for your forgiveness. If you are willing, you can return to the Liu Family at any time. It’s all our fault. If you are willing to go home, we will try our best to make up for it,” Liu Wenzheng said affectionately.
