Husband-stealing story - Chapter 80
Moreover, Mr. Chai kindly offered to take responsibility for delivering the blow.
So, as soon as Tianxiu opened her eyes, she saw nothing but red, and a bright red wedding dress on her body.
Mr. Chai always finished what he started, and he even hired a matchmaker to help his new bride change her clothes. Tiger Earth was very pleased with this good friend he had never met.
Tiger Earth King rubbed his hands excitedly, looked at Xiu Mei'er who looked panicked, and smiled like a flower: "Xiu Mei'er...you look so beautiful today."
Tianxiu opened his mouth, only to find in astonishment that someone had struck his mute acupoint, rendering him unable to utter a single word.
Seeing that Xiu Mei was silent, Hu Tu Jun remembered Mr. Chai's teachings.
"A shy girl's silence means she agrees."
Seeing that bright red bridal gown made her fair skin look even more rosy and lovely, I couldn't resist going up and kissing Tianxiu's cheek...
Tianxiu collapsed, felt helpless, and was in chaos.
Having lived for over twenty years, I was actually taken advantage of by a man!
Seeing Xiu Mei'er's bewildered expression made Tiger Earth feel guilty. He quickly apologized and then took Xiu Mei'er's hand, leading her towards the main hall, where bright red lanterns hung high, creating a joyful and festive atmosphere.
Several tables had already been set up, and the guests were all passing by.
Tiger Earth whispered in Xiu Mei'er's ear, "If you don't say anything, it means you're willing to marry me."
Tianxiu wanted to cry but had no tears, opened his mouth but couldn't speak, and shook his head desperately.
Tiger Earth Lord only saw the red veil swaying wildly, and thought the bride was becoming increasingly shy. He then whispered, "Let's make do for now, and have a grand ceremony when we get home. From now on, all my family's land and property will be yours. I will take good care of you and treat you well. My daughter is young this year, but she is sensible and will never make things difficult for you."
Tianxiu opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word. He probably had something done to his body, so he couldn't use any martial arts skills, which made him even more desperate.
Tiger Earth Lord clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd: "Fellow brothers and heroes passing by, today is my wedding day. We men of the martial world don't concern ourselves with so many formalities. Today is my joyous day, Tiger Earth Lord. I must have accumulated good karma in my past life to marry such a wonderful wife. I ask you all to be my witnesses. I, Tiger Earth Lord, promise that if I ever wrong Xiu Mei'er in the slightest, may I be struck by lightning and have all the heroes of the martial world spit on me!"
His words were sincere, and everyone cheered and drank to celebrate.
Tiger Earth Lord held Xiu Mei'er's delicate hand and bowed to the crowd.
Tianxiu knew that once the wedding ceremony was completed, the entire martial arts world would know that Sang Tianxiu was Tiger Earth Lord's wife, which was utterly ridiculous! She was so anxious that her hands were sweating, but she couldn't break free.
Tiger Earth Lord thought the new bride was shy and nervous, so he squeezed her small, white hand and whispered, "No matter what happens, I will stand by your side."
No sooner had the words been spoken than the hastily hired matchmaker announced, "The newlyweds bow to heaven and earth—"
Everyone cheered in unison.
Tianxiu closed her eyes in despair.
He's still young, he hasn't even married yet, and now someone else is going to marry him...
Tiger Earth Lord was so excited his face turned red, and he pulled his wife down to bow, waiting for the second bow to begin...
Instead of the second bow, a loud and clear shout rang out: "Tiger Earth Lord! How dare you abduct a woman like me!"
A figure in red flew over the crowd and landed in front of the newlyweds. Tang Shijiu pulled Tianxiu behind him, saying, "This girl is mine! How dare you steal her?!"
The crowd was in uproar. They had seen people kidnap brides before, but they had never seen a girl kidnap her bride.
Tiger Earth Lord angrily said, "Miss Tang, you said it yourself that day that if she was willing, she would not interfere with Xiu Mei'er's decision to stay or leave."
Tang Shijiu found it amusing to see his anger rising, but kept a straight face: "She could never agree to that!"
Tiger Earth Lord said, "Young ladies are easily embarrassed; it's not a matter of saying no and then agreeing. Besides, looking around the martial world, how many men are like me?"
After holding it in for so long, Tianxiu finally broke free of her speech impediment. She immediately lifted the veil, clung to Tang Shijiu's shoulders, and said softly, "I understand Tiger Lord's good intentions, but... my heart already belongs to someone else!"
A chorus of boos erupted from the crowd.
Tiger Earth Lord was stunned, and took three steps back: "You...you...why didn't you say so just now!?"
Tianxiu's eyes were alluring as she glanced at Shijiu: "I thought... I thought he wouldn't accept me. I thought he didn't want me anymore..."
Tiger Earth Lord was full of doubt: "Do you now know that the person you have feelings for wants you?"
Tang Shijiu suddenly had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, Tianxiu said sweetly, "If you don't want me, why would you make such a fuss to snatch me away?" He suddenly turned around and hugged Tang Shijiu tightly, his voice trembling as he said, "Shijiu, I knew you would come to snatch me away. You would never leave me alone!"
Although people from the martial arts world are not bound by formalities, it is rare for two women to be so openly flirting and communicating. The hall fell silent, and some of the most respected elders shook their heads in disbelief.
Tianxiu hugged Tang Shijiu tightly: "If you try to separate us, I'll die right here!"
Tang Shijiu gritted her teeth and whispered, "If you keep holding me this tight, I'll make you die in front of them."
Tiger Earth sat in his chair in shock, his face filled with disbelief: "How...how is this possible?"
Tianxiu looked around and smiled brightly at Hutujun: "You think we're joking or just messing around?"
He pulled Tang Shijiu away, gazed into her eyes with deep affection, and then kissed her delicate and beautiful red lips fiercely.
Tiger Earth King could no longer hold on and fainted with a thud.
The assembled heroes were initially silent. A respected elder, unable to bear the sight, shook his head and left. Then, a few wandering, unconventional individuals began to applaud.
And just like that... I was forcibly kissed...
Tianxiu's lips were adorned with the finest rouge, which smelled sweet and pleasant, and wasn't unpleasant to eat.
Tang Shijiu's mind went blank; he was completely at a loss.
