Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 405 Wedding

Chapter 405: Chapter 405 Wedding

Time flew by quickly, and before they knew it, the Mid-Autumn Festival was about to arrive.

With the arrival of the Mid-Autumn Festival came the wedding date.

Yin Hehe worried that there wouldn’t be enough time to arrange for the guests from her family on the day of the wedding, so she had called them all over two days in advance.

Some were friends from the Landun Law Firm, who had specially come over from abroad.

Then there were, of course, people from the Empire’s capital. This time they came in full attendance, everyone except the couple Xiahou Maolin had arrived.

"Deputy Captain Cheng, could you please take these guests to our hotel? I have already arranged their rooms," she requested.

"Certainly, ma’am," he replied.

Cheng Chi immediately agreed.

Thus, that afternoon, many people in Jiangbei witnessed a lot of guests arriving at the five-star hotel owned by Shengshi Group, located in the city center.

They wore festive expressions and were dressed very grandly, clearly there to offer their sincere congratulations at the wedding.

"I heard that those people are from the Xiahou family in the capital," someone in the crowd of onlookers remarked as they recognized where these guests were from, sparking immediate discussion there and then.

"The Xiahou family?"

As soon as this surname was mentioned, a stir immediately rippled through the crowd.

It couldn’t be helped; that surname was quite sensitive here. A mere statement from Shengshi Group was enough to suppress it, but the ambiguous attitude still kept their curiosity piqued about the matter.

Hence, their excitement upon seeing them was quite understandable.

"This president of Shengshi Group is having a wedding and has even invited this family. Does that mean he acknowledges his Xiahou family identity?" someone speculated.

"Shh!"

No sooner had the words been spoken than they were promptly silenced by a caution from Xiaosen standing beside them.

"Don’t talk nonsense. The Legal Department of Shengshi Group is very formidable, be careful they don’t sue you for spreading rumors!"

"..."

After that, no one dared to speak another word.

However, once all the guests had entered the hotel, it wasn’t long before they discovered that the matriarch of Shengshi Group had also arrived, and she had promptly entered the hotel as well.

With her presence confirmed, it was almost certain.

As a result, that evening, the issue of the identity of Shengshi Group’s president once again surged to the top of the online search rankings, and this time, the group did not respond until the next day.

The online ferment continued.

Finally, when the wedding day arrived, on the 15th of August, this matter had virtually become a national sensation.

Because of this, many media outlets camped out at the wedding venue, all waiting for a conclusion.

Dressed in a pristine white wedding gown, Yin Hehe sat in the old house of the Yin Family that had once seen Jin Jinxiu off on her wedding day. All morning, she was absent-minded.

Was she afraid?

Of course, if she had been reassured by Sheng Siyuan’s nonchalant demeanor over the past few days, not that anxious.

But now, things had escalated, and eventually, she began to worry.

Today’s wedding seemed destined to be anything but peaceful.

"Hehe, what’s on your mind?"

Meishan Qiandai, noticing her preoccupation, came over to ask.

Caicai raised an eyebrow: "Isn’t it obvious? It’s definitely about all that stuff on the internet. What is your husband thinking? The place is swarming with journalists outside. What will you do if they start asking about it when you arrive at the wedding?"

She said this angrily.

Anyone with clear eyesight could see that this was the current situation. Otherwise, what were all those journalists doing there?

And this was precisely what certain people wanted to see.

Yin Hehe’s palms were even sweatier now.

Yet she remained in the bridal room without moving, even as the wedding cars arrived in a grand procession below.

She didn’t call the groom to throw a tantrum.

Nor did she panic; instead, she waited with tremendous willpower for this man to come and fetch her.

"I’m sorry for the delay on the road, I’m a bit late."

The man in a black suit, with a groom’s flower pinned to his lapel, looked even more strikingly handsome that morning. His stern and clear brows were filled entirely with joy.

Upon seeing him, Yin Hehe felt her heart, which had been suspended all morning, suddenly settle down.

"It’s okay."

Dressed in her immaculate wedding gown, she sat on the bed, looking up with a bright, smiling shake of her head.

The man hooked his lips into a smile.

In a moment, he gestured to the groomsmen behind him to take out two thick red envelopes and stuff them into Caicai and Meishan Qiandai’s hands before he stepped forward and lifted Yin Hehe from the wedding bed.

"Wife, I’m taking you home."

"Alright~"

Nothing could be sweeter than these words.

So even though today’s wedding was filled with unknown dangers, in this moment, Yin Hehe was content.

The wedding procession made its grand entrance at the ceremony site.

"Here they come~"

As the floral car finally arrived, the focus of both the guests on site and the reporters immediately turned to them.

They were all waiting for the pivotal moment.

But to their disappointment, when the floral car stopped and the doors opened, the man who emerged carrying the bride showed nothing but a joyful smile throughout the entire process, without any other expressions.

"How can he be so calm? Doesn’t he fear these reporters?"

"Indeed, if they start asking questions later, one slip could drag the entire Shengshi Group down to hell."

These onlookers were all very puzzled.

Just as their comments ended, a few reporters from some of the more authoritative media outlets indeed began to ask questions.

"Mr. Sheng, today is your big day. May we ask you a few questions?"

"Go ahead."

The man nodded agreeably, clearly in an excellent mood.

So, in front of everyone, the reporters asked their questions.

"Mr. Sheng, our visit today is firstly to wish Mr. Sheng a happy marriage and secondly to address the recent online issues concerning Shengshi. Do you have anything to say about this matter?"

"Yes, Mr. Sheng, do you really have a connection with the elder Mr. Xiahou Yi? We’ve noticed that members of the Xiahou Family are at your wedding banquet."

"..."

Just two questions made the extensive wedding venue so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

It seemed that everyone loved a piece of gossip.

Standing by, Yin Hehe couldn’t help but feel another layer of sweat forming in her palms.

She turned to look at the man beside her, only to find that he still wore a smile, including the hand that held hers which maintained the most comfortable warmth.

"Regarding my relationship with elder Mr. Xiahou Yi, I regret to inform you that I am not very clear on the matter because he has never mentioned it to me. I believe that everyone present has their own past, and whether this past will be spoken about in the future, no one knows."

"So, I won’t force him if he doesn’t want to speak. However, since he has entrusted the Xiahou Family to me, I will certainly not let him down. From today onward, as long as I, Sheng Siyuan, am alive, no one shall lay a finger on the Xiahou Family!"

As he spoke that last sentence, his gaze suddenly sharpened.

It was as if, in that moment, he wasn’t the one being interviewed but rather the one making a declaration, and this wedding had transformed into his press conference!
