Chapter 180: Awkward Wedding
Chapter 180: Awkward Wedding
"Invitation?" Alex looked at the invitation handed by Shen Han, curious, and asked, "Is it for the wedding of that horsehair worm, Ping Qiyun?"
"Yes, master. My father sent someone to inform us that Guangbei Jia and Gu have become wary of us. They want to secretly unite with Lv Weijiang to suppress us. From what I see, Lv Weijiang and Ping Deyuan have probably sensed something amiss too. Ping Qiyun is so eager to marry Zhang Jingwu; it's likely for a quick and complete allegiance from him," Shen Han said with a disdainful smile.
"However, tomorrow is Ping Qiyun and Zhang Jingwu's wedding day. If the master invites Ping Qiyun to accompany you tonight, I wonder if this woman will come."
Alex grinned mischievously, self-satisfied. "Last time, I got her all excited. This time, how could she bear to refuse me? Hahaha!"
As Alex finished speaking, a knock on the door echoed from outside.
"Come in!" Alex's lips curled up in a faint smile.
Sure enough, it was Ping Qiyun who entered.
Ping Qiyun was draped in a black cloak, wearing a mask that covered her face, enveloping her entire figure in the darkness of the cloak. After entering, she removed the cloak and mask.
Looking at Ping Qiyun, who had carefully dressed up, Alex couldn't help but laugh. "Little sweetheart, you came to find me so quickly? I thought you wouldn't be able to make it today, after all, tomorrow is your big wedding day. Such an important day, even if you didn't come, I wouldn't blame you."
"I..." Ping Qiyun blushed, lowered her head, and bit her lip tightly.
Today, she wore a low-cut evening gown, emitting the brilliance of gemstones, dazzling and accentuating her charming figure.
In addition to that enchanting ladylike quality, she looked absolutely stunning. "Alex... Lv Weijiang has already begun to distrust you, and it seems he's not convinced about your allegiance... He sent Lv Qi to contact people on Guangbei Jia's side, seemingly wanting to unite with Guangbei Jia to deal with you... You need to be careful," Ping Qiyun said, unsure why she was saying these things but inexplicably speaking out after seeing Alex.
And before coming, she involuntarily dressed up a bit.
"What's wrong with me?! Am I going crazy? Could it be... Could it be that I've fallen for this man... But... But this man is so despicable, shameless...
Such a rogue scoundrel! And, he's just an uncultured loser..."
Ping Qiyun bit her lip tightly, looking at Alex with eyes full of complexity.
"Very well, Qiyun, I'm very satisfied with your performance today. I'll definitely reward you properly!" Alex said, walking towards Ping Qiyun and lifting her up.
Ping Qiyun's face turned red, thinking about what was going to happen next. Unable to help it, her face blushed even more, and her gaze towards Alex was filled with a dazed look.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"What am I doing?! Why... why am I looking forward to this so much..."
"No! I'm doing this for my family, for my parents and my brother..."
"I'm forced! He has my pictures, and I have no choice..."
"How could I possibly like this loser... I'm a high-achieving scholar who returned from studying abroad..."
"I'm a refined lady! How could he, a loser, possibly be worthy of me..."
"But why... when I see him, my heart is filled with excitement..."
"And that time, why was I so excited? Why am I so eager now..."
After a series of conflicting thoughts, Alex lay comfortably on the sofa, allowing Shen Han to light a cigarette for him.
"Master... I'm getting married to Zhang Jingwu tomorrow... Are you just going to watch me marry him like this?" Ping Qiyun looked at Alex with anticipation, tears shimmering in her eyes.
In reality, she was a devoted woman. Moreover, what Alex said earlier was indeed correct. After breaking through the barriers of her body, her heart had also begun to open up to Alex. Now, she really didn't want to be with any other man; she just wanted to stay with Alex. Leisurely exhaling smoke, Alex looked at Ping Qiyun, who was filled with anticipation, and sneered inwardly. This was exactly the effect he wanted. If Ping Qiyun was willing to cooperate with him, things would be much easier.
Alex gently touched Ping Qiyun's hair and comforted her, saying, "Qiyun, on the day of the wedding, I will arrange for someone to pick you up. At that time, follow my instructions, okay? How could I bear to watch my woman marry someone else?"
Upon hearing Alex's words, Ping Qiyun felt a sudden surge of happiness.
"Remember, about us eloping, don't let your father know either, or we both could be in danger," Alex said seriously to Ping Qiyun.
Nestled in Alex's arms, Ping Qiyun nodded happily and earnestly, "Master, I will. I will definitely follow your instructions. I won't tell anyone about this as long as you're willing to take me away..."
...
Early the next morning, Alex got up and, accompanied by Shen Han, Lv Bao, and others, went to the only building in the base.
This place used to be a barracks where the soldiers of the city defense force lived. The barracks occupied a large area and had complete facilities. There was even a large auditorium, perfect for Zhang Jingwu and Ping Qiyun's wedding ceremony.
The auditorium was meticulously decorated, appearing grand and luxurious. Representatives and important figures from various factions attended the event. Guangbei Jia and Shen Xudong were also present in person. Only Gu, citing concerns about city defense work and his past conflicts with Zhang Jingwu, did not attend in person. However, he symbolically sent
some gifts.
Lv Weijiang personally took on the role of officiant. The dining table was filled with various fresh fruits and vegetables that were hard to come by in the post-apocalyptic world.
Amidst the blessings of the guests, Zhang Jingwu happily accepted various compliments. Watching his proud and beautiful goddess in a wedding dress, Zhang Jingwu was almost melting with happiness. He had never expected to marry such an outstanding goddess in his lifetime, bringing the woman he had secretly admired for many years as his beautiful bride!
In this regard, Zhang Jingwu couldn't help but feel grateful for the apocalypse. Without it, he might never have had the chance to marry such an exceptional woman as Ping Qiyun. He was enchanted by her beauty.
Throughout the wedding, Ping Qiyun, from beginning to end, secretly glanced at Alex. Her gaze towards Alex was filled with tenderness and fascination. Even when Lv Weijiang asked her if she was willing to accompany Zhang Jingwu for a lifetime, the images that came to her mind were the passionate moments with Alex from the night before.
"The groom may now kiss the bride!" Lv Weijiang finished the blessings, finally announcing that the groom could kiss the bride. Zhang Jingwu, with a rosy face, looked at his goddess with eyes full of love. At this moment, he felt like the luckiest person in the world.
Closing his eyes, Zhang Jingwu leaned towards Ping Qiyun slowly. However, Ping Qiyun instinctively took a step back, her face showing disgust. The scene suddenly fell into extreme awkwardness.
