The women looked at each other, the eerie atmosphere still lingering.
Fortunately, Xu Shi didn't let the situation continue to deteriorate.
"Hahahaha-----------Jingying, stop joking. Xu Mo and I are siblings, how could we do something like that? Even if I wanted to, our relationship is clear, isn't it?"
Oh man, this is like a taboo relationship.
Xu Shi deliberately emphasized the word "siblings" when speaking.
She wanted to expose the truth.
Obviously, now was not a good time.
Yang Jingying and the others were momentarily stunned.
It seemed Xu Shi had a point.
How could Xu Mo accept Xu Shi?
Isn't that incest?
Unless he was utterly insane, not even human.
Doing something like that would be beyond comprehension.
It would be better to just let the rest of them take advantage instead.
At least there wouldn't be the psychological burden of familial ties.
Yang Jingying blushed, feeling embarrassed, and coughed lightly.
"Sorry, Xu Shi, it was thoughtless of me to say something like that. Please don't take it to heart."
Seeing that she had managed to steer the conversation away, Xu Shi grinned, revealing her two sharp, cute little tiger teeth, and said cheerfully:
"It's fine, Jingying, no big deal."
Pausing for a moment, she continued: "So, are you all coming tomorrow?"
The women looked at each other.
Han Zhiqi straightened her back with a sinuous grace and said, "Of course, why wouldn't we?"
Sss!!
The others gasped.
Han Zhiqi's temper came and went quickly.
As soon as she heard about taking down the bride's (Zhou Qiaoqiao) spotlight, she didn't hesitate to join in.
She was a real wolf.
Even wilder than the "tough person".
"I'm in too!" Gao Liyuan snorted lightly through her nose, raising her hand.
Being a homebody doesn't mean you lack beauty, only that you're too lazy to put on makeup.
She simply doesn't want to compete with those flashy, shallow women.
But since it's about stealing the bride's thunder, Gao Liyuan didn't mind dressing up a bit more.
After all, it’s only once in a lifetime.
Why not?
"Count me in."
"Me too."
"If anyone needs clothes, come with me to the high-end fashion boutiques. They're all designed by famous international designers. Take whatever you like. Tomorrow, we don't want to lose the battle of looks while we step on Zhou Qiaoqiao's shine."
The women chattered excitedly.
The atmosphere was vibrant.
Xu Shi smiled, feeling satisfied.
It wasn't in vain that she played the mediator.
The reconciliation was successful.
Let them create chaos.
The more chaotic, the better.
Only then could she legitimately stay by Xu Mo's side and become his woman.
In her previous life, they were best friends.
Why not in this life?
If she couldn't have Du Le Le…
Why not share everything together?
Imagining not having to live a life of fleeing and wandering with Xu Mo,
Imaging being able to stay with him again,
And also being able to see her parents,
Xu Shi felt an overwhelming excitement within her.
Besides excitement,
There was also a thrilling sense of stimulation.
Right under her parents' watchful eyes,
Though she couldn't openly declare it,
The secrecy itself was enough of a thrill, wasn't it?
Needless to say more.
And so,
The women came to some kind of agreement.
Some went to pick out clothes,
Some went to buy jewelry,
Those who already had everything ready,
Went home to their respective families.
The next day, just as the sky began to lighten,
The heart of Shanghai was already bustling with activity.
Luxury sports cars,
Usually a rarity on the streets,
All came out to shine.
Exuding an atmosphere of grandeur.
Even leading to traffic police being dispatched to maintain order.
The cause of all this commotion?
Xu Mo’s and Zhou Qiao Qiao’s wedding.
At the same time,
In Shanghai's top-tier international hotel,
Today, it was decked out in festive decorations,
With guests coming and going,
All arriving in cars worth millions.
Because it was little Xu’s wedding,
Old Xu (Xu Mo’s father) was extremely generous,
Spending heavily,
Not only renting the entire hotel,
But committing to an entire month.
Considering that some guests were coming from out of town,
This gave them a place to stay,
And even after the wedding,
Those who wanted to explore, could do so.
In short, the Xu Family wasn’t short on cash.
“Brother, Xumogugu already got married, you need to step up your game,” Tao Xiaofeng said with slightly red eyes.
Tao Xiaoyi rolled his eyes. “What does a brat like you know? Your Xumogugu’s life has just gotten into a grave, but your brother’s still living a carefree life.”
The two siblings Tao Xiaofeng and Tao Xiaoyi were among the crowd.
Tao Xiaofeng wore a dark green, high-slit dress.
She chose green primarily because Xu Mo liked green.
Over time, influenced by him,
Tao Xiaofeng too grew fond of the color,
Showing how one becomes like the person one admires.
Tao Xiaoyi, on the other hand, wore a formal blue suit.
Because Xu Mo and Zhou Qiao Qiao had specifically requested that certain traditions be simplified,
Such as getting married and not requiring traditional customs like bridesmaids or groomsmen,
Tao Xiaoyi and Tao Xiaofeng remained here with the majority instead of attending the ceremony.
This place was spacious,
Frequented by the rich and powerful,
All figures of status in society.
Guests invited by the Xu Family—very few were ordinary.
Tao Xiaofeng rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue at her brother.
“Dad said if you don’t find someone soon, he’s going to kick you out.”
“What?!”
(ÒωÓױ)!!!
Tao Xiaoyi look as if someone had just played a prank on him.
“Really? Is the old man that serious?”
Tao Xiaofeng gave a stylish eye roll.
“Believe me, you can just test it out for yourself, won’t you?”
“Testing? No way. Forget it, thanks but no thanks.”
Tao Xiaoyi almost fainted right there, shaking his head vigorously.
“No need, no need, thanks, bye-bye.”
Tao Xiaofeng couldn’t help but laugh and be exasperated at the same time.
“You’re such a coward, look how scared you are.”
“Xiaofeng, you’re here!”
A childish, cute voice rang out.
Tao Xiaofeng turned to see who it was.
Xu Shi in a dazzling white dress, was heading their way.
Her stunning figure on full display,
Enough to make any man’s heart race,
Any woman envying her.
Not just her outfit,
But her makeup was clearly the result of hours of careful preparation.
Charmingly seductive,
Yet pure like an elfin junior sister,
Simply mesmerizing!!!!
Tao Xiaofeng stared wide-eyed.
She couldn’t help swallowing her praise, laughing and exasperated:
“Xu Shi, hello.”
Slight pause.
Tao Xiaofeng continued: “I mean, it’s your brother’s wedding day, is it really appropriate for you to dress like this?”
Tao Xiaofeng glanced repeatedly at Xu Shi.
ε=(´ο｀*))) Sigh
When would she ever grow to that same level?
Xu Shi smiled, clearly aware of her friend's concerns.
“Hahahaha----------What’s wrong with how I’m dressed?”
Tao Xiaofeng made a gesture with her hand, hesitating.
“I mean, that—that-----”
“You mean, not stealing the bride’s spotlight?”
“Yes, yes.”
Tao Xiaofeng nodded like a little chick pecking.
Xu Shi couldn’t hold back and revealed a smile.
“It’s not just me dressed like this, the others are too.”
“?”
Tao Xiaofeng’s small head was filled with big questions.
What do you mean by the others?
