“No matter how powerful a person is, there will always be a weakness. If I mean if one day, Ji Jingchen gets into trouble, but there is no one by his side who is sincere…” the old lady did not explain further and slowly drifted off.
“It was destiny that allowed us to meet one another. If such a day truly comes, I will definitely not stand by and watch.” Du Jiuyuan said.
After all, they could still be friends after the divorce, as long as Ji Jingchen would not be so annoying.
Hearing Du Jiuyuan’s words, the old lady’s eyes revealed a trace of relief. “Yes, I know. You can go!”
Du Jiuyuan walked out of the ward and saw Ji Jingchen who was talking on the phone. He saw her coming out of the corner of his eye and immediately hung up.
“I’ll send you back,” he walked to Du Jiuyuan and said.
Du Jiuyuan had just clicked on the car-hailing app. She took out her phone and showed him the user interface. “It’s alright. I’ll get a ride back myself.”
Ji Jingchen snatched the phone from her and pressed the cancel button. There was no room for negotiation.
Du Jiuyuan was speechless.
Ji Jingchen personally drove her back home. The two of them were silent all the way until the car reached the apartment building. Du Jiuyuan unbuckled her seatbelt and left without looking back.
“Yuanyuan.” Ji Jingchen frowned and got out of the car to call her.
Du Jiuyuan stopped and looked back. The sunlight fell on Ji Jingchen’s body, making it look as if he was wearing a luxurious coat.
“Yuanyuan, where do you want to go on our honeymoon after the wedding? I’ll let Peter arrange it.”Ji Jingchen’s tone was calm as if he was dealing with a business matter.
Du Jiuyuan merely gave a fake smile and turned to leave.
Ji Jingchen did not understand what that smile meant. In truth, he had heard what she had promised his grandmother.
Three days later, Ji Jingchen’s wedding became the most popular topic in Hong Kong city.
The streets were filled with excitement about this grand wedding and it was not unexpected. However, many did not realize the bride was actually Du Jiuyuan.
The media was not allowed to enter the wedding venue. Those who attended were either rich or nobility. The best actor within the entertainment industry was also there to warm up the wedding scene.
Under Ji Jingchen’s instructions, many media outlets reported on this matter. It was not a live report, but the words were able to describe how grand the wedding was.
For example, the best actor, Lu Ziang, was acting as the best man, and Diva Lin would be the maid of honor. All sorts of news came flooding in.

The entire wedding was arranged by special personnel and the process of picking up the bride was extremely smooth. Even He Lili, who had always been hot-tempered, lost her arrogance because the moment she saw Lu Ziang and Gu Xingchen standing in the best man’s entourage, she could not hide the joy in her eyes.
The wedding car arrived at the Ji family’s house without any obstruction. Du Jiuyuan wore a wedding dress embroidered with gold thread. She was elegant and delicate. She knelt in front of Ji Jingchen and kowtowed in front of Grandmother Ji.

The old lady sat on the sofa and watched them kowtow and toast tea to the elder. Then, she handed a big red packet that she had prepared in advance to Du Jiuyuan.
“Thank you, Grandmother!” Du Jiuyuan took the red packet and said with a smile.
The old lady looked at the two of them kneeling on the ground with gratified eyes. Her eyes were slightly red. “Get up!”
Ji Jingchen stood up first and then gently helped Du Jiuyuan up.
The entire action was not very intimate, but it also made Tang Yingxue, who was at the side, very mad. Old Madam Ji had been holding her arm, afraid that she would do something outrageous.
Fortunately, they did not stay in the Ji family house for long and moved on to a hotel. The wedding ceremony was completed there.
As soon as Ji Jingchen arrived at the hotel, he sent Du Jiuyuan to the lounge and went to receive the guests himself.
Du Jiuyuan did not have many friends in Hong Kong, thus most of the family members present were from Ji Jingchen’s family.
Du Jiuyuan had woken up before dawn. She had not eaten breakfast and only drank some water. At the moment, her stomach was a little uncomfortable, so she asked Lili to find her something to eat.
The makeup artist’s car was blocked halfway due to the heavy traffic to the wedding venue. Du Jiuyuan could only move freely once the makeup artist arrived to get her into the wedding dress.
A few minutes later, Lili’s scream was heard. Du Jiuyuan rushed out and saw Lili pointing at the wedding dress in surprise.
The expensive and gorgeous wedding dress had been cut into pieces like rags, and there were some unknown objects on it.
“Yuanyuan, with the wedding dress in this state, you don’t have to marry that annoying man anymore!” Lili said excitedly after a while as if she wanted the whole world to know.
Du Jiuyuan quickly covered Lili’s mouth. “You’re thinking too much. With Ji Jingchen’s ability, he can get me a new dress any time.” Back then, Ji Jingchen had shipped dozens of wedding dresses from abroad in one night for her to choose from.
Lili was really naive. She was only now learning about Ji Jingchen’s abilities.
“However, it seems that there are people who do not want to see me wearing this dress. Little do they know, this only makes me want to wear one even more!” Du Jiuyuan looked at the tragic wedding dress and said calmly.
He Lili came to her senses. “Yuanyuan, you’re really rebellious.” She paused for a moment and then said, “However, I like the way you think. Quick, tell me what you intend to do next..” He Lili was very excited.
