Chapter 868: Chapter 873: Attending a wedding, a bit too many acquaintances
Yang Gang didn’t know how to react.
The bride was actually Catherine!
Catherine had divorced Noah a long ti ago and was now single, so there was no problem with her getting married.
But,
The last ti he had reunited with Catherine in the Xilan Republic, and then parted ways in the Xueji Kingdom, it had only been a week. How could Catherine suddenly be getting married?
Catherine was also stunned to see Yang Gang.
Ashley said, "Miss Catherine, this is Father Jason. Since Father Jack had sothing urgent to attend to, Father Jason will officiate your wedding today. Hey, Miss Catherine?"
"Uh..." Catherine collected herself and smiled, "Oh, Father Jack just called
about it."
She paused, looking at Ashley, "Um, could you let
and Father Jason have a mont alone? I’d like to go over the wedding procedures with him."
"Sure," Ashley nodded and left.
After Ashley’s departure, Catherine closed the door, then turned to Yang Gang, "Yang Gang, how co you’re here? And how did you beco a priest?"
"Err, the groom’s mother is my mom’s friend. As for being a priest, well, that’s a long story," Yang Gang paused and looked at Catherine, puzzled, "But Catherine, what about you? How co you’re getting married all of a sudden?"
"Hehe, this, that..." Catherine hemd and hawed, "I and Lan Chuan were college classmates, and Lan Chuan has always liked . After divorcing Noah, he kept pursuing
and helped
a lot. Including helping
clear my identity and removing
from the Federal Security Bureau’s blacklist. I thought, it’s not often soone treats
this well, so I might as well remarry. Since it’s my second marriage, I didn’t want to make a big fuss. Lan Chuan agreed with , so we only invited a very few close friends and family to the wedding. I really didn’t expect you to be here."
"Hmm.. I see."
Catherine glanced at Yang Gang and smiled, "Seeing
about to get married, don’t you feel a little bit reluctant to let go?"
Yang Gang thought for a mont and smiled, "Actually, I do feel a little."
"Feeling a little reluctant is enough for ," Catherine paused and smiled, "To be honest, getting married to soone else in front of you is a bit embarrassing."
Just as Yang Gang was about to speak, there was a knock at the door.
Catherine got up and opened the door, smiling, "Coco, you’ve arrived. Oh, this is Father Jason who will be officiating the wedding today."
The knocker was a woman in her mid-twenties, with jet-black hair, skin fair as jade, eyes that sparkled with charm, and an indescribable grace in her smile. She was like a peony about to bloom, beautiful without being ostentatious, radiant without being vulgar.
Though the woman’s appearance was not top-notch, her exceptional deanor exuded an ethereal fairy-like aura.
The genuine temperant of a noble lady from a wealthy family.
"Hello," Yang Gang said.
He had probably guessed by now; this beauty must be Lan Ke.
Lan Ke was startled, "That voice, could it be the Big Gray Wolf?"
Yang Gang smiled, "I’m surprised you rember ."
Now it was Catherine’s turn to be surprised, "You two know each other?"
Lan Ke nodded, "I t him once when I went to Hangcheng for a masquerade ball. Well, more accurately, we saw each other’s masks."
A flicker of thought crossed Catherine’s eyes, but it was unclear what she was thinking.
Lan Ke’s gaze fell on Catherine, "Sister-in-law looks gorgeous."
"My wife has to be gorgeous," said a man’s voice at that mont.
Lan Ke turned around and smilingly said, "Brother, you’re here. Hmm... And Lord Shenwei is here too."
Yang Gang felt like he had been struck by lightning as he turned his head to look.
Standing at the door were two n, one of whom was dressed in a groom’s attire, mature and handso, while the other man was none other than Xiao Shenwei.
Damn it, attending a wedding seems to involve too many acquaintances!
Those he wished to see and those he did not wish to see were all here.
He and Xiao Shenwei had not seen each other since they last parted ways a long ti ago.
In Yang Gang’s heart, it would be best if they never crossed paths again.
At that mont, the groom Lan Chuan saw Yang Gang, dressed as a priest, and walked over, "Are you Jason, as ntioned by Father Jack?"
"Yes. The wedding was supposed to be officiated by Father Jack, but he..." Yang Gang said with forced composure.
"Haha, don’t be nervous, Father Jack speaks very highly of you. We have no objections." He turned to look at Catherine, "Catherine, what do you think?"
"Uh, I think Father Jason seems fine," Catherine said.
Xiao Shenwei also noticed Yang Gang but said nothing.
Lan Chuan was in a good mood today and turned to Coco, "Coco, you’re not getting any younger, it’s ti to think about marriage leave. How about my buddy, Xiao Shenwei? I think you two are quite a match."
Xiao Shenwei did not refuse, but Coco just smiled and said, "Shenwei is a popular candidate to be the next Family Head of the Xiao family on Crow Feather Island, how could I be a match for him? Moreover, all the won in Yanjing’s high society circles know that Shenwei has a woman he likes."
"Oh, he had a liking in the past. But that woman is now the second witch of the Dark Moon Sect, and her position is opposed to humanity. Her and Shenwei are impossible," Lan Chuan said.
Coco smiled, "Brother, today is your big day, let’s not play matchmaker anymore. If Shenwei and I are destined, naturally we will co together. If there’s no fate, it’s no use forcing it. Oh, I’m going to accompany mom; a friend of hers ca from Hangcheng."
Having said that, Coco left.
Lan Chuan laughed awkwardly, "Shenwei, don’t mind it, my sister naturally has this temperant. People often say she is like a fairy untouched by the mundane world."
"It’s okay," Xiao Shenwei said indifferently, his gaze landing on Catherine without saying anything further.
After a while, he spoke up, "Lan Chuan, co here for a mont."
Lan Chuan nodded.
The two went to a place further away and then stopped.
"What’s the matter, Shenwei?" Lan Chuan asked.
Xiao Shenwei pondered slightly, then asked, "How many months pregnant is your wife?"
"Huh? What do you an?"
"I fear that you, brother, might be raising another man’s child. I tend to speak quite directly, so please forgive , Brother Lan," Xiao Shenwei said flatly.
"Catherine is in fact getting married for the second ti, her forr husband was Noah, the forr Gothic King. But Noah is homosexual and hardly touched Catherine. So..."
Xiao Shenwei glanced at Lan Chuan, saying indifferently, "You’ve never slept with Catherine, have you?"
After a mont of silence, Lan Chuan sighed and gave a wry smile, "Nothing escapes you, brother."
"So that ans the child in Catherine’s belly is definitely soone else’s?"
"Er, although she has symptoms of vomiting, there has been no confirmation of pregnancy. I’ve asked Catherine to go for a check-up, but she refused," Lan Chuan said.
Lan Chuan paused, sighed again, and continued, "I also know that Catherine might be pregnant. But I can only choose to accept it. Because only under this condition would Catherine agree to marry . If it turns out that Catherine isn’t pregnant in the end, then I’ve hit the jackpot."
