Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion - Chapter 109
Chapter 109: A Shining Green Patch on His Head
“Baby, my love for you has grown again today.”
The groom panicked, as he knew very well who that woman was.
Ye Erruo! That b*tch! How dare she pull this stunt on me during my engagement!
“Switch it off! Switch it off!” he howled at the organizer.
The emcee made a mad dash for the control board to try to switch off the equipment, but he somehow could not get it to stop working.
“My little baby, are you sleeping yet?”
“Not yet!”
“What are you doing? Are you thinking of me?”
“I saw a super cute child today.”
Lin Jingxuan’s voice could be heard saying, “Our future child will be cuter.”
“He locked me up today and forbade me to see you.”
“Wait for me. I’ll climb through the window to find you. I, Lin Jingxuan, promise to marry you and only you alone. May I be struck by lightning if I break my promise.” As the setting gold-rimmed sun was facing them, the man on the bridge declared his love for the woman.
Scene by scene, the dialogues between the groom and the woman played continuously on the screen one after another.
By now, the hall was buzzing with gossip, as everyone had started to talk among themselves.
Lin Jingxuan turned increasingly afraid and angry, while Gu Feirou looked terrible.
“Young Master, I can’t switch it off.” It seemed as if the machine had been attacked by a virus.
While breaking into a cold sweat, the man ordered hurriedly, “Switch off the power supply!”
“I-I’ll make a call now.”
After one minute, all the lights inside the hall suddenly went off without a warning. The images on the screen disappeared in a blink as well.
“Ah!”
“Is there a blackout?”
“Why are there no lights?” The guests started to grumble.
“Who did this?” Lin Jingxuan grabbed the emcee by the collar in the dark as he interrogated him furiously.
“Y-Young Master, I don’t know.”
“Did she tell you to do this to me?” One could almost hear his knuckles grinding against each other.
“What do you mean, Young Master?”
“Useless bum!” He threw the man out with a fierce tug.
SNAP! SNAP! SNAP!
Loud crackling sounds of firecrackers going off could be heard from outside all of a sudden. The door to the hall swung open petrifyingly by itself and the sound of the firecrackers overwhelmed the buzzing noise inside the hall.
Curious, everyone turned toward the door to have a look.
“Who set off firecrackers so late at night?”
After a few minutes, Lin Jingxuan and all the guests were standing outside the hall.
The firecrackers, which were bright green, could be seen hanging high in the middle of the road. They curled and twirled around ring after ring, and even the display they created was green. The firecrackers lined up the entire pavement, each one set 100 meters apart from the rest.
The bride and groom had turned green with anger by then!
The lights along the two sides of the pavement illuminated the color of the firecrackers brilliantly.
“Who did this?” The man shot a question through gritted teeth.
“Put out the firecrackers.”
The servants quickly extinguished the firecrackers with countless pails of water.
Soon, a batch of guards marched forth to disperse the crowd and get everyone to a safe place.
“Y-Young Master…” A servant had approached Lin Jingxuan, looking anxious.
After lowering his volume, he told him, “Madam Mo said that this is an engagement present from her to you. She wishes that all your years will be as good as this day and you’ll have many happy returns.”
“Ye Erruo!”
“She also added something else.”
“What is it?”
“She… She said not to invite her to your wedding, o-or else she will send you a truckload of firecrackers.”
The man was incensed. What a b*tch! She had thoroughly embarrassed him tonight. To think that he had wasted so much of himself on this ungrateful woman.
“Have they left?”
“Not yet, Young Master. They are still in the garden.”
