The pure white train of the wedding dress swept across the red carpet.
Dressed in formal attire, the couple walked side by side into the venue, where chattering guests abruptly fell silent, leaving only the strains of melancholic cello music.
Su Wan, clinging to Ajue's arm, approached and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to have kept all of you waiting. Mr. Host, the wedding may begin now."
Th host, belatedly grasping the situation, immediately nodded and started the long-delayed ceremony.
But internally he was wondering, who was this groom?
All the guests, staring at the handsome man, were stunned.
They hadn't expected Su Wan to suddenly switch grooms!?
The Huo Family was collectively losing their minds!
Even Huo Jiaojiao, who had always been gloating, was shocked by the scene before her, her jaw nearly hitting the floor.
Su Wan dared to marry another man! But who was this person? And quite good-looking at that...
The elder Mr. Huo had been feeling guilty all along because it was Yichang's fault for not understanding the seriousness of the situation and not showing up for his own wedding.
But now...
He tremblingly asked his old friend beside him, "Who is that?"
Ever since Yichang had been a no-show, Mr. Su had become increasingly displeased, thinking today's actions by the Huo Family were utterly disgraceful!
On hearing elder Mr. Huo's question, he stroked his beard with an air of nonchalance, "That should be my granddaughter's husband."
Elder Mr. Huo: "..."
Su Wan couldn't care less whether these people were shocked or not. She urged the host to speed up the process and then whispered to Ajue, "Can you still hold on?"
She felt Ajue's hand growing hotter by the minute!
Ajue silently nodded, but a cold sweat had formed on his forehead, dampening his long eyelashes and making his delicate features seem all the more pitiable and tempting.
Su Wan gripped his hand tighter and looked up to see her mother whispering something to her brother—probably asking for the exclusive medicine—then turned back impatiently to the host and said, "Hurry up!"
The host, also feeling innocent in the chaos, skipped a few steps and moved directly to the last one!
"Groom, do you take Miss Su Wan to be your wife?"
"I do."
"And you, bride, do you take Huo..." The host felt his own cold sweat dripping.
He didn't know the groom's name!
However, Su Wan was quick to respond, saying "I do" in a flash before standing on her tiptoes and wrapping her arms around Ajue's neck.
Ajue seemed to instinctively know what to do, bending down to kiss the corner of her mouth.
The sweetness of it somehow eased the alternating sensations of hot and cold coursing through his body.
Just then, however, Su Wan had already stepped back half a pace and away from him.
Ajue frowned, feeling a twinge of disappointment.
The host quickly wiped his forehead and declared, "By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife! Congratulations to the newlyweds! Now, let the banquet begin!"
As the clock neared midnight, Su Wan, unable to attend to the other guests, kicked off her high heels and, taking Ajue by the hand, dashed away through the backstage.
Ajue's condition was off, and Su Wan could not wait for her mother. She sent her a message via her mind-computer asking her to bring the exclusive medicine, then took Ajue back to the bridal room.
"Ajue, are you okay?" Su Wan, awake for less than two years, had no idea how to deal with a beastman's Manic-Depressive Period. She got a wet towel to wipe his face while activating her mind-computer to ask the AI, Xiaobai.
"What should I do if I encounter a beastman in Manic-Depressive Period?"
Xiaobai: "There are two solutions, one is to administer his exclusive medicine, the other is to become his exclusive medicine."
"What does that mean?" Su Wan frowned, intending to ask more questions, when suddenly a furry tail wrapped around her waist and with a forceful tug, she fell into a torrid embrace!
