Chapter 309: Chapter 309: A Woman’s Mouth, A Liar’s Ghost

The sun set, and the moon rose.

The Gong Family was exceptionally lively tonight.

As a famous Martial Cultivator family in Jiangning.

Various connections were intricately woven like a web.

Today was the wedding of the Gong family’s eldest grandson.

Inside, the guests numbered over a thousand.

The vast Gong property was bustling with a grand feast tonight.

Two hundred banquet tables occupied the hundred-acre courtyard of the Gong family.

High shelters were built and the lights shone brilliantly.

As the groom, Gong Tianao, stood red and green at the door welcoming the guests.

A convoy of over a hundred luxury cars had grandly returned with the bride from the Shangguan Family.

Now, awaiting the auspicious moment to perform the earth and heaven worship on the constructed stage.

Gong Tianao, finally having married his beautiful bride, was grinning from ear to ear.

After all, as an ordinary person.

If he wanted to smoothly claim the seat of the heir.

He had to surpass all rivals.

So, tonight was the day he defied fate and changed his destiny.

Once he drained Shangguan Min Yue’s True Qi.

Who would dare to stop him from becoming the new Family Head then?

Up front, the excitement was particularly high.

But at this moment in the backyard, two figures were silently moving forward.

"Hey, weren’t we here to enjoy the wedding feast? Why are we sneaking in?"

Following behind Zhao Jiaqi, Lin Fan asked curiously.

This feeling, it was just like being thieves.

"You crippled the Gong Family’s bodyguard last time, do you think the Gong Family would have allowed it if you had entered through the front door?"

Zhao Jiaqi gave him a look.

The Gong Family didn’t dare to settle scores, all because of the Dragon Fang’s face.

This guy, how could he forget so easily.

"Even if they don’t agree, could they really kick me out on such a joyous occasion? Besides, if I don’t attend, I just don’t attend. Worst comes to worst; I’ll go home and sleep. Sneaking around like this, what kind of wedding participation is this? I almost feel like we’re eloping with the bride."

Lin Fan stopped as he spoke.

Previously, it was to quickly get away from Prince Zhen Nan.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had to play the thief following Zhao Jiaqi.

"What ugly words you’re speaking. What do you mean by ’eloping’? Look around; there’s no one here."

Zhao Jiaqi hurried back to Lin Fan’s side.

The auspicious time was nearly upon them.

If they didn’t act now, they would be too late.

"Little junior sister, why do I feel like this is a trap? Are you hiding something from me?"

Seeing Zhao Jiaqi’s nervous demeanor.

Lin Fan immediately sensed a hint of a conspiracy.

"What kind of trap could I possibly have? It’s just that Sister Min Yue wanted to meet you before getting married, to tell you something. Can’t you stop thinking so lowly of everyone?"

Zhao Jiaqi certainly wasn’t willing to admit it.

"Say something to me? What are you talking about? I’ve only met Shangguan Min Yue twice, and each time she chased me with a knife. What good would she possibly have to say to me?"

Lin Fan, however, didn’t quite believe this pretty lady.

Although, he had almost seen all there was to see of Shangguan Min Yue.

But they had only met twice.

One could only say that each time they met, she was barely dressed.

"How would I know? She wants to talk to you, not me. Just go see her, and that’ll solve it."

Zhao Jiaqi, with arms crossed, said, "Even if it’s only been twice, each time, you’ve taken advantage of the situation. You touched what you shouldn’t have and saw what you shouldn’t have. Can you not act innocent after reaping the benefits? Not even fulfilling her last wish before marriage, do you even qualify as a man?"

"Cut the crap. I’m not a fool."

Lin Fan snorted coldly, "Met twice and both times turned out bad. Sneaking around this time too, I don’t even know what kind of mess they’d have me bear. Forget it. The wedding booze isn’t even good anymore. I’d rather go back home and sleep."

Having said that, Lin Fan tried to leave.

But he was abruptly pulled back by Zhao Jiaqi.

"Hey, you can’t go. If you leave, Min Yue will die at her wedding tonight."

"Now you want to tell the truth, don’t you?"

Lin Fan turned around with a sneer.

He knew there was more to the story, "Be honest, and I might help you out. But if you plan to rely on lying, then I might just leave for real."

"It’s all because of that damn Gong Aotian, insisting on this forced marriage. Min Yue had no choice but to use her master as a shield. I don’t know what kind of spell she cast on Master Miejue, but she actually agreed to this marriage. Orders from a master cannot be disobeyed. Min Yue doesn’t want to get married and wants to escape, but she’s worried the Gong Family might retaliate against the Shangguan Family, so she wants your help."

Zhao Jiaqi could only pout as she explained the whole situation.

"Damn, her master agreed to the marriage and you want me to help? With the Seven Killings Alliance and the Gong Family involved, I might as well turn myself into a porcupine."

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan rolled his eyes.

This wasn’t helping; it was suicide.

"You’re the alpha wolf, since when have you been afraid of them? Where is your bravery? Besides, think about poor Min Yue. Can you really watch her jump into a pit of fire? You’re the only one who could help her right now."

Zhao Jiaqi quickly grabbed onto Lin Fan, fearing that he would escape.

"I have no morals, so don’t use morality to threaten me."

Lin Fan brushed off her hand, "I’m not afraid, but why should I provoke these people? People are marrying by their own choice, and I’m supposed to interrupt? Besides, don’t forget, I’m a married man. What if this gets out? What about my wife?"

"It’s not like I’m asking you to elope with her. Just mess up the bridal chamber a bit, leave some traces of an expert’s handiwork, then I can take Min Yue and escape back to Beijing. It’ll be clean and unseen. Later the Shangguan Family can even turn the tables, claiming it was enemies of the Gong Family who took the bride."

Zhao Jiaqi looked at Lin Fan with a pleading face.

"Enough, those knife-wielding tyrants marrying into the Gong Family is their own bad luck. Why should I stop what’s fated to happen? I’m staying out of this."

Lin Fan didn’t believe it would be that simple.

He turned to leave but was grabbed around the waist by Zhao Caini.

"Fine, even if you have no compassion, you must have some shame. I saw your wife today. If you don’t help me, I’ll bring Min Yue to your house tomorrow and let your wife know how you took advantage of us. Oh, and there’s also the matter with the holy maiden!"

"Why must you do this!"

Zhao Jiaqi’s words struck deep in Lin Fan’s heart.

With a look of resignation, he turned around and moved away Zhao Jiaqi’s hand.

"It’s just messing up the scene and leaving some marks, right? Such a small favor, of course, I should help. But let’s make this clear, I’m not doing this because I’m scared of your slander, but because of the justice in my heart, which compels me to rescue women oppressed by archaic thoughts. This is merely a display of righteousness!"

He had just managed to mend his relationship with Ning Mengyao.

He was about to succeed now.

He couldn’t let Zhao Caini ruin it.

"Right, right, your heart is full of righteousness, a paragon among men."

Zhao Jiaqi said with a sly grin, "The world’s great hero, hurry up then. The bride is waiting for you."
