"Miss, the wedding car has arrived, and the master and madam are waiting downstairs." A woman in her fifties said from the door of a room on the second floor of the villa.
Inside, a girl wearing an exquisite and beautiful white gown stood in front of the mirror. Her delicate features reflected in the mirror were nothing short of breathtaking.
It's just a pity that such beauty is not for him to behold as his bride.
Gu Qimiao came back to her senses from the mirror and replied softly, "Alright, I'll be down in a moment."
Descending the stairs, a middle-aged woman dressed in expensive mink fur approached her, saying sternly, "You know how important this wedding is, don't mess it up! Our Gu family has raised you all these years, it's time for you to repay us!"
Gu Qimiao nodded faintly. Despite her immense reluctance, she had no other choice.
This woman was the mistress of the Gu family, her benefactor who had saved her life. As she said, it was time to repay the kindness.
Seeing such grandeur, Gu Qimiao couldn't help but silently sigh. Indeed, a wealthy family could make even a loveless wedding so elaborate.
Gu Qimiao sat in the first car, with three people inside—her, a driver, and someone who looked like a male family butler. She was alone in the back seat.
The master and madam of the Gu family were in the car behind, and all their relatives had come.
The convoy gradually entered Mai City. Gu Qimiao took a deep breath, looking at the city where she would live in the future.
The distance between him and her clearly became closer, but there was no way they could ever be together again.
She still remembered their first meeting, her three-year-old self wandering the streets. He, dressed in fine clothes, did not avoid her dirty self; instead, he gave her bread and hot milk when she was hungry and took her home.
He was the one who changed her life, her true savior. But they were destined to be apart. After two years together, they were separated, and now eighteen years had passed...
"Can you open the window? I feel a bit stuffy."
The butler turned around, smiling, "It's a bit cold, but we'll be there soon... Ah!"
Suddenly, there was a clatter in her ears, followed by a screeching sound. The car made an emergency stop, and Gu Qimiao's whole body lunged forward. Looking up, she saw a bright red sports car blocking their way.
"Crash—" Both the driver's and the butler's windows were smashed, each with a black gun barrel pointing at them.
Gu Qimiao was frightened by the scene. Before she could process what was happening, the car door was pulled open from the outside...
Looking up, she locked eyes with a man's deep black gaze. This face seemed unreal to her, and she stared at it blankly for a long time. If she hadn't kept up with his news and imprinted his features in her mind, she would have thought she was mistaken.
The man was dressed in a black tailored suit that perfectly wrapped around his tall and slender frame of 188 cm. His icy eyes added an extra chill to the winter cold.
This man was the piece of her heart she could never remove.
"Brother Yan Chen..." Gu Qimiao was stunned for a long time before uttering these three words. Joy burst from her eyes, sweeping away the darkness in her heart, making her pulse race with excitement.
"Get down." Among the commotion, his tone was very calm as he extended a hand to her.
This... was this a wedding disruption?
Being her secret crush's rebellious bride?
She felt that fate still favored her. She had never thought he'd remember her all these years, let alone rescue her at such a critical moment.
Overwhelmed by happiness, Gu Qimiao did not hesitate. One hand lifted her gown, and the other clasped Shen Yanchen's hand.
Without considering the consequences.
She knew that missing this chance would mean never having it again in her lifetime.
Her Brother Yan Chen had come!!
