Chapter 351: Chapter 351 – The World Isn’t Worth It, But You Are (Third Update)
Beijiang.
The plane slowly came to a stop.
As Xue An and An Yan walked down the spiral staircase,
countless fireworks soared into the sky, bursting one after another, lighting up the night sky of Beijiang like a kaleidoscope with their dazzling brilliance.
A red carpet led from the temporary airfield all the way to the Number One Tian Villa.
Hand in hand, Xue An and An Yan made their way over it.
Behind them was a vast expanse of fireworks going off, while in front of them were countless watching eyes.
All of this made An Yan somewhat nervous.
Noticing this, Xue An squeezed An Yan’s hand and said softly, “Don’t be afraid!”
An Yan hummed in response, her voice low.
But immediately after, her stomach let out several rumbles.
Xue An couldn’t help but chuckle and asked quietly, “Hungry?”
Even though she was beneath the bridal veil, Xue An could still see An Yan’s face turning red at a visible rate.
In fact, An Yan hadn’t had a proper meal since yesterday, and the scent of food wafting over was naturally making her stomach growl.
“Just wait a bit longer, I’ll cook for you!”
“Mm-hmm!” An Yan nodded happily.
“Daddy, Nian Nian is hungry too!”
Xue Nian, who was following behind, heard about cooking and couldn’t help but say with her mouth watering.
Xiang Xiang, who was on the side pulling at her mother’s wedding dress, heard this and couldn’t help but say, “Didn’t you just eat a piece of cake on the plane?”
“But cake is not as good, Daddy’s cooking is the best!” Xue Nian said with a pitiful look.
“You still ate so much even if it wasn’t good!”
“You’re talking about me, but you ate a lot too!” Xue Nian retorted.
“Still, I didn’t eat as much as you did!”
“Big sister ate more!”
The two little girls started chattering and bickering again.
Xue An and An Yan exchanged a smile, then Xue An took An Yan’s hand and slowly headed towards the wedding venue.
He had promised to fulfill every commitment he made to this girl.
This wedding was just the beginning.
“Bow to heaven and earth!”
Following the customs of Beijiang, the most important ceremony for the couple is the final bow to heaven and earth.
But when Song Yi shouted these words, many people couldn’t help but hesitate.
Like Tang Xuan’er.
She looked at the stage worriedly.
Would Xue An, so formidable, be willing to kneel down?
In the midst of everyone’s concerned gazes, Xue An smiled slightly and knelt on the ground alongside An Yan.
An Yan said with some excitement, “Husband…”
Xue An said softly, “It’s okay, heaven and earth aren’t worth it, but you are!”
This remark immediately choked An Yan up.
And this scene was witnessed by Fan Mengxue, who had rushed to the site.
She stood at a distance, staring at the couple on the stage, her eyes becoming lost in a daze.
“Meng Xue!” Han Yao called out worriedly.
She was afraid Fan Mengxue couldn’t withstand the impact.
But unexpectedly, Fan Mengxue smiled.
“Did you notice? He looks so handsome in a suit!”
Now Han Yao was even more worried, “Meng Xue, if you’re upset, just cry it out!”
“Cry? Why should I cry? He’s gotten married, and he’s so happy, I’m too delighted to even consider crying! Let’s go, let’s drink to his happiness!” Fan Mengxue walked into the venue cheerfully.
Her arrival also caused a stir among the crowd.
“My God, it’s Fan Mengxue!”
“Didn’t she go abroad? Why has she come back now?”
Many people exclaimed.
And Tang Xuan’er was also startled, quickly walking over.
“Meng Xue!”
Fan Mengxue smiled, “I’m a bit late, but luckily, I’ve still made it in time!”
Tang Xuan’er nodded, but turned her head away with a bit of a heavy heart, seemingly unable to bear the sight of Fan Mengxue’s smile.
The ceremony concluded.
The wedding banquet officially began.
Top chefs from Beijiang and the provincial city had been ready for action, and as soon as the command to start the meal was given, they immediately began cooking the dishes.
The exquisite cuisine flowed like water, the mere scent of which was enough to make one’s mouth water.
At that moment, An Yan called out with a hint of surprise, “Meng Xue!”
Fan Mengxue nodded and said with a smile, “Happy wedding!”
This scene between the two raised eyebrows among the crowd.
Could it really be this harmonious?
Then Fan Mengxue turned with a smile to Xue An and extended her hand generously, “Congratulations, congratulations!”
Xue An smiled and shook her hand lightly, “I was about ready to fly to Europe to drag you back!”
Fan Mengxue just smiled, without a word.
Seeing everyone present, she said, “Let me make something fresh for you!”
With that, Xue An turned and headed to the kitchen.
The busy staff in the kitchen all jumped when they saw him coming.
“Mr. Xue, what are you doing? It’s all greasy in here; you should go back out front!”
“Never mind me, clear a stove for me!”
The crowd didn’t know what Xue An was planning, but they cleared a stove for him as instructed.
Xue An took out the octopus monster meat he had obtained the other day and deftly began to skewer it.
Then he placed it over the fire to grill.
Soon, a strange fragrance wafted through the air.
Many were taken aback by the scent.
“What is Mr. Xue cooking? It smells incredible?” someone asked.
Xue An, however, paid no mind to the surprised looks and quickly finished grilling the skewers before taking them outside.
An Yan was already starving by this point, and Xue An handed her one, “Try this!”
An Yan didn’t hesitate to take a bite, and her eyes immediately lit up.
“This is so delicious!”
Xue An then distributed the remaining skewers among the people.
The two young girls couldn’t wait to grab one and start eating.
Everyone had nothing but praise.
Tan Xiaoyu, after eating a skewer, paused slightly.
The meat, once consumed, turned into a surge of pure energy, and it seemed to enhance her Cultivation Level a smidge.
What in the world was this?
Many others noticed something unusual and expressed their amazement.
“Mr. Xue, what kind of meat is this? It’s so delicious!” someone inquired.
Xue An smiled, “This is the meat of an octopus monster I captured a few days ago, with two to three hundred years of Cultivation Level. Naturally, it’s extraordinary!”
Many people’s eyes brightened at this revelation.
So these were actually the meat of a demon beast that had lived for two to three hundred years?
Therefore, the skewers that Xue An had grilled were quickly gone in a flash.
Only Fan Mengxue didn’t partake; she just kept happily sipping her drink.
Many admirers came to toast her, and she didn’t decline.
The banquet continued until late into the night before finally concluding.
As people at last began to leave.
Fan Mengxue was still drinking her drinks with a drunken gaze.
Tang Xuan’Er approached with a sigh, “Enough, no more drinking!”
Fan Mengxue looked up at her with teary eyes but said with a laugh, “It’s fine, I just wanted to drink a bit more of her wedding wine!”
Tang Xuan’Er remained silent and then sat beside Fan Mengxue.
“In fact, I know that right now, you feel just like me, don’t you?” Fan Mengxue said softly.
This statement sent a shiver through Tang Xuan’Er, who quickly turned her face away, not daring to let Fan Mengxue see the tears in her eyes.
“It’s not wrong to like someone. The mistake is that we didn’t meet him at the right time, did we, Xuan’Er?” Fan Mengxue whispered.
“You’re really drunk! Come on, let me help you go back to sleep,” Tang Xuan’Er said after a moment of silence.
Fan Mengxue shook her head, took up another cup, and said dreamily, “With this last cup of drink, whom shall I appear to be in my drunkenness?”
She then began to laugh, and suddenly, she was crying.
