Chapter 432 - They’re Really Getting Married
Evil Prince, Come Play With Me
The crowd had no time for gossip right now as they were busy picking up the wedding coins.
Fruit and coins were left behind in the paradeâs wake, and many people scrambled to pick them up behind the sedan chairs.
It was livelier than ever.
Gu Bailu saw a red horse trot by in front of her. The bridegroom on the horse was as gorgeous as ever, the big cheesy flower on his chest not detracting from his handsomeness at all.
Feng Qingtian was indeed second to none in terms of looks.
Gu Bailu decided to let it go. After all, she had slept with such a pretty boy for so long without needing to pay for it.
She followed the parade all the way to Prince Ziâs house and watched Feng Qingtian escort his bride into the house carefully while the matchmakers said propitious words behind them.
Many guests entered the house as well. It was said that the royal chefs had been hired for the wedding.
âAh Luo, letâs go back.â Gu Bailu didnât want to go in as she hadnât been invited.
Ah Luo, however, pulled on her sleeve. âMy lady, I want to eat pork. The pork in our house isnât as delicious as the one in Prince Ziâs.â
Gu Bailu dropped her forehead into her hand. âDidnât you just bring back dragon meat from Cloud Mirror Academy? How can pork compare with dragon meat?â
âThereâs not enough dragon meat. Iâm saving it for my lady. I want to have pork.â Ah Luo clutched her sleeve and wouldnât let go.
She had never been so wilful before. Gu Bailu thought that she must be really hungry.
The previous cooks in the Gu house had left, and the new ones werenât very good at their job.
However... was it really appropriate for the former Princess Zi to visit Prince Ziâs house without being invited?
While she was hesitating, Ah Luo had already pulled her to the gate of Prince Ziâs house.
When Gu Bailu hesitated again, Ah Luo dragged her into the house as if it were her own place.
...Hm, she really hadnât come voluntarily.
Why didnât anybody stop her? Could just anybody enter Prince Ziâs house right now?
Actually, that was true for today. Everybody was free to enjoy a meal at Prince Ziâs house.
However, not everybody had the courage to enter.
Gu Bailu sat down at the least conspicuous table in a corner with Ah Luo.
It was truly embarrassing that she had come to her ex-husbandâs wedding for food.
Those who didnât know her might think that she still had feelings for him, or that she was here to create trouble.
âDid I see the former Princess Zi just now?â someone whispered.
Gu Bailuâs ears were very sharp right now, allowing her to catch whatever people said.
âReally? Sheâs shameless enough to come here? Sheâs not here to cause trouble, is she?â
Gu Bailu pouted. Iâm not a troublemaker; Iâm only here for the pork because Ah Luo loves it.
âI just saw her. Iâm certain itâs her. She must be hiding.â
Gu Bailu sat up straight and said to Ah Luo, âAh Luo, finish quickly, and letâs get out of here.â
She really didnât want to hear the whispers, but they kept pouring into her ears.
Up front, the wedding host said in a shrill voice, âThe first bow to the heavens and the earth.â
Gu Bailu slightly frowned. After the ritual, they would be a real couple...
âMy lady, Iâm done. Letâs go,â Ah Luo said with her mouth full.
Gu Bailu stood up. Although she said she was fine, she didnât really want to watch them get married. She had a heart, after all.
They had barely stood up, when a bolt of lightning smashed the hall.
Everybody screamed, and Gu Bailu saw through the crowd that the bride in her red wedding dress had been hit dead on by the lightning.
