Hearing the strange sounds over the phone, Su Lang couldn’t help but frown.

“Wife, why are you out of breath? What are you doing?”

“I’m… I’m… practicing… yoga.”

Listening to Yang Jingwan’s response, Su Lang found it increasingly odd. He knew that Yang Jingwan did have a habit of practicing yoga. However, they were about to leave for the ceremony; why would she be doing yoga now?

Su Lang wasn’t foolish; he wouldn’t easily believe Yang Jingwan’s words so quickly.

“Come here,” he called over a subordinate disguised as a waiter.

“Sir, what is it?”

“You’ve been guarding outside all this time. Did you notice anyone suspicious coming in?”

“We’ve been here the whole time, not leaving even for a moment, and haven’t noticed anyone suspicious.”

“Then, besides my wife, who else is in the room right now?”

“Miss Cheng is in there.”

“Cheng Rui is also inside…” Hearing this, Su Lang felt relieved. Earlier, hearing Yang Jingwan’s voice, he thought she was…

But after questioning his subordinate, his suspicions were dispelled. It seemed his wife was indeed practicing yoga. She was quite dedicated.

However, no matter how dedicated she was, the wedding ceremony had to start on time. Su Lang immediately called Cheng Rui.

When the call connected, he could vaguely hear Yang Jingwan’s panting from Cheng Rui’s side. Su Lang ignored it and said to Cheng Rui:

“The bridesmaids you found are too much. We can’t get in. Tell them to stop; the ceremony is about to start.”

“You guys, so many of you, haven’t even managed a little bit of the wine?” Cheng Rui asked in surprise.

“The whole corridor is lined with wine. Is that a little bit? And those wines are very strong; we can’t drink much. How did you handle this?” Su Lang said in a superior tone.

“This wasn’t my arrangement; it was organized by the hotel staff.”

“Regardless, this is your oversight. I don’t want excuses,” Su Lang snorted, “Quickly bring Jingwan out.”

“Ah!!!”

Before Cheng Rui could reply, Yang Jingwan let out a shout from the other end of the phone.

“What happened?” Su Lang asked in shock, ready to rush into the room to check.

“Nothing, nothing, Jingwan… she… she strained her back while practicing yoga.”

“What is this? The wedding is about to start. Is it serious?” Su Lang asked anxiously.

“It’s not a big problem, but she can’t walk for a while. I’ll help her massage it. You go and calm the guests. Once Jingwan is okay, I’ll bring her over immediately.”

“According to the process, shouldn’t I be the one to pick her up?”

“Forget the process. She can’t walk now.”

“Then keep an eye on her. Once she’s okay, bring her over immediately.”

Su Lang could only agree.

On the other end, after ending the call, Cheng Rui couldn’t help but snort in disdain. This Su Lang really thought he was someone important, bossing her around. Such nonsense.

After inwardly criticizing him, Cheng Rui walked out of the bathroom in the room. She awkwardly and blushingly glanced at Yang Jingwan, who was lying limp and disheveled from exhaustion.

“New bride, yoga is over. Hurry up and get ready; they’re urging us over there,” Cheng Rui reminded.

…

At the wedding venue, Su Lang absentmindedly greeted the guests, eagerly anticipating Yang Jingwan’s appearance. About ten minutes later, Cheng Rui finally appeared, escorting the bride in her wedding dress.

“The bride is so beautiful!”

“Yes, she’s stunning.”

The guests who came to congratulate were amazed just by the silhouette of the bride in her wedding dress, exclaiming in admiration.

Hearing the voices around him, Su Lang couldn’t help but smile. From today onwards, Yang Jingwan would truly be his wife. After enduring a year as a dismissed son-in-law, he was finally going to turn his life around. From now on, he wouldn’t have to live in separate bedrooms from Yang Jingwan.

Su Lang was full of anticipation as Yang Jingwan, supported by Cheng Rui, walked closer to Su Lang. Su Lang smiled, gazing foolishly at Yang Jingwan’s figure.

But soon, the smile on Su Lang’s face disappeared, replaced by a look of shock, as if struck by lightning. He noticed that Yang Jingwan’s walking posture was different, no longer…

Su Lang found it hard to believe. When he saw Yang Jingwan yesterday, she was perfectly fine. When did this happen? Right, just now, during the phone call!

She was no longer perfect… She was no longer perfect…

Su Lang’s dream shattered. In an instant, his eyes turned blood-red, and he shouted in despair.

“Ahhhh!”

Following closely behind Yang Jingwan, Wang Haoran, who had returned to the group of guests, received a series of system notifications. Without the “Invincible War God” skill, Su Lang was like a toothless tiger. Wang Haoran no longer needed to fear Su Lang.

Of course, the show wasn’t over yet; there was still more to unfold.

On the other side, Su Lang took a step forward, moving like a ghost, and reached Yang Jingwan. He tore off the veil from Yang Jingwan’s head.

“Who? Who is it?!”

Su Lang’s face was nearly terrifying. This sudden situation left everyone present bewildered. Was the groom out of his mind? What was he doing?

Su Lang’s abnormal behavior was only known to Wang Haoran, Yang Jingwan, and Cheng Rui.

With the veil removed, Yang Jingwan’s face, perfected by makeup, appeared in everyone’s view. At this moment, her face was filled with anger and resentment.
