42: Chapter 42: You were the one who broke up, why are you crying when I’m getting married?
Lin Xueyao almost cried as she said the first few sentences, her words somewhat incoherent.
She wanted to properly question him: how could he just disregard his promises and turn around to marry another woman as if nothing had happened?
In just ten short days, he had seamlessly moved on to another woman, flaunting their affection in front of her. How could she possibly accept this?
She could accept that Song Yuan had never loved her from the start, but she couldn't accept him suddenly letting her go after loving her.
Song Yuan looked at Lin Xueyao helplessly; he couldn't answer her questions.
Why did his marriage need her approval?
"Miss, you were the one who broke up with me. Why are you crying on my wedding day?"
Lin Xueyao cried even harder.
"Song Yuan, I don't believe your marriage to Gu Shiyu is serious. You're just trying to provoke me. Now I admit I've been provoked. Please let go of her hand and come with me immediately!"
Lin Xueyao was crying so much that snot was running down her nose. Usually so concerned with her appearance, she now had no image to maintain, not caring if her makeup ran.
She was desperate.
Song Yuan took Gu Shiyu's hand and formally introduced her.
"Lin Xueyao, this is my newlywed wife, Gu Shiyu. Today is our joyous wedding day. She doesn't mind you being here. The reason you haven't been thrown out is because of her generosity. Please stop making a scene!"
Lin Xueyao was so choked up with sobs that she could barely speak.
"Song Yuan, I know you're angry about me breaking up with you before. I'm telling you now, I won't look for Xiao Nianchen anymore. I also said a lot of disparaging things about you, and I take them all back now.
I apologize to you. Let's stop playing these games of hurting each other. Let's make up right now!"
Lin Xueyao had lowered herself to the absolute minimum, doing the most undignified thing she had ever done in her life.
Crashing her ex-boyfriend's wedding and begging him for forgiveness—she never would have dreamed she could do such a thing.
She had always been a noble princess, with a beautiful face and figure. A beautiful woman was meant to enjoy men's adoration, care, and praise.
But at this moment, she shed all her pride.
Nothing else mattered.
After Lin Xueyao finished speaking, before Song Yuan could say anything, Qiao Xi couldn't hold back anymore.
She hadn't expected Lin Xueyao to abandon all dignity and so humbly beg Song Yuan for forgiveness. What if Song Yuan actually forgave her?
Would she still have a chance?
Between Lin Xueyao and Gu Shiyu, Qiao Xi believed Lin Xueyao was the biggest threat to her, so she chose to side with Gu Shiyu.
After all, Song Yuan and Gu Shiyu had only known each other for a few days; she could definitely break up that relationship.
Qiao Xi took tissues from her bag to wipe Lin Xueyao's face and hugged her tightly.
"Silly girl, don't be so lowly. Have you forgotten what your parents and brother taught you? They insisted Song Yuan had to give a million yuan as a betrothal gift for you two to marry.
Song Yuan is no longer a suitable match for you."
Lin Xueyao was practically sobbing uncontrollably.
"I'm not leaving, Qiao Xi, don't pull me. Song Yuan hasn't given me an answer yet, and I won't leave."
Song Yuan and she had once been together, and he didn't want things to become too awkward between them. Not contacting each other in the future was the best blessing they could give each other.
"Lin Xueyao, please leave."
Lin Xueyao stubbornly said,
"I won't leave unless you come with me!"
As the few of them tugged at each other, some of the relatives and friends finally couldn't stand it anymore.
Song Heng and Tao Yulian walked forward, supporting each other. Tao Yulian had a gentle temper and had never argued with anyone in her life, but today's events concerned her son. Song Yuan was her bottom line, and she couldn't stand by and do nothing.
"Lin Xueyao, no matter what happened between you and my son before, it's all in the past now. What's the point of causing a scene now besides losing face? Please maintain some dignity for yourself."
Song Heng chimed in,
"When you were with Song Yuan, we treated you like our own daughter, and Song Yuan protected you wholeheartedly. But you thought we were poor and fell for another man.
Now you're back making trouble? Didn't you break up with him?"
Lin Xueyao's cheeks burned with shame from the barrage of questions. Only now did she realize how foolish her actions were.
Aside from her pretty face, she had nothing else to show for herself. Compared to Gu Shiyu, who controlled a conglomerate, she wasn't even fit to carry her shoes.
She shouldn't have broken up with Song Yuan. If that incident hadn't happened, today, they would have been getting married witnessed by so many relatives and friends.
It was all her own doing.
Lin Xueyao calmed down, her eyes red as she looked at Song Yuan.
"Song Yuan, are you really that heartless?"
Song Yuan didn't stop his parents from speaking about her. Throughout, he only cared about his newlywed wife's feelings. Lin Xueyao was now a familiar stranger to him.
"Please leave. Let's both maintain some dignity."
Lin Xueyao's heart was now being cut by a knife.
"What about the promises you made to me? Are you just going to pretend you never said them? Song Yuan, how can you treat me like this and be qualified to marry another woman? If you're so cruel to someone you loved for three years, will you truly love a woman you married in a flash after knowing her for only a few days?"
In the relatives' section, Gu Shiyuan, who had been silently eating sunflower seeds at a table, was provoked by these words.
He had originally planned to quietly leave after attending his older sister's wedding, but he never expected a woman to suddenly appear.
Wanting to ruin his sister's wedding? Not if he had anything to say about it!
Gu Shiyuan threw down the few sunflower seeds he hadn't eaten, strode to the front, grabbed Lin Xueyao by the collar, and without a word, dragged her out of the venue.
Everyone present was stunned.
Gu Shiyuan wouldn't hit a woman, but throwing her out was something he didn't need to think about at all.
Only after he had taken her outside did he let go.
"If you're sick, get treatment. Don't act like a slut in front of my Senior Brother!"
Lin Xueyao could no longer hear what others were saying or if they were laughing at her. She was numb, as if her spirit had been drained.
The moment Gu Shiyuan dragged her out, she was still watching Song Yuan. He just stood there, watching her being forced out of the wedding venue, not stopping it, not even saying a word.
He didn't even offer her comfort.
At this moment, she finally realized how terribly wrong she had been before.
Why did she break up with Song Yuan?
And not just break up, but use such a malicious reason, abandoning him and turning to another man's embrace? Any man would be extremely bothered by that, right?
She now deeply regretted her actions.
If time could be reversed, she would absolutely never break up with Song Yuan. Unfortunately, it was all too late.
She looked at Qiao Xi, who was standing nearby, and asked her hoarsely,
"Qiao Xi, do you think I still have a chance?"
What Qiao Xi feared most now was Lin Xueyao turning back. As long as Lin Xueyao didn't shamelessly beg for forgiveness, she felt that she would eventually be able to win Song Yuan over. Song Yuan's flash-marriage wife posed no threat to her.
"Yaoyao, it's just one man. Why bother?"
Lin Xueyao shrieked,
"No, Song Yuan and that woman have no feelings for each other. Maybe they just had a wedding and didn't even get their marriage certificate! I have a way, yes, I have a way to win Song Yuan back!"
Qiao Xi asked nervously,
"Lin Xueyao, what are you going to do?"
