Chapter 666 - 667: I Am Not Willing
The Shui Family and the Liu Family were two of the top families in Lin City. Their union was an extraordinary event. On the day of the wedding, guests had converged in droves. Leaders of Lin City, members of other families, and almost all of the wealthy had been present.
The wedding ceremony took place at the Liu Family’s grounds, on an outdoor lawn. Guests, dressed in luxurious attire, gathered in groups, engaged in discussions about the impact this union between the two powerful families would have on Lin City.
As the wedding march began, everyone assembled in the center of the venue, where a stage was set up. At that time, Liu Minghui stood on the stage, with a priest by his side, and rows of young men and women to either side.
Below the platform was a bright red carpet flanked by flowers, with numerous cameras set up all around, ready to record the grand wedding ceremony.
"The bride is coming!"
Following a loud shout, Shui Qingyue walked down the red carpet on her father’s arm, advancing toward the stage step by step. She was so beautiful that she seemed like a fairy descending from heaven, eliciting endless praise from the crowd.
It was a Western-style wedding, and the priest began to officiate.
"Today we gather in the presence of God and these guests to celebrate the sacred matrimony of Liu Minghui and Shui Qingyue. Marriage is a precious treasure bequeathed by God since the beginning of creation. Therefore, one must not enter into it lightly, but reverently and earnestly. In this sacred moment, these two are to be joined. If anyone can show just cause why they may not be lawfully married, speak now or forever hold your peace."
Shui Qingyue’s body jerked slightly, and she involuntarily scanned the crowd with her eyes, seemingly hoping for something. However, no one stepped forward.
Liu Minghui, standing next to Shui Qingyue, moved his lips slightly and whispered, "Are you hoping that lecher would stand up for you?"
