Chapter 273: Engagement Ceremony
Li Haoran and Bai Zihan continued to be left on the mountain at night, this is also easy to understand, after all, Xu Yuchen's illness is getting better little by little, and the treatment has been carried out to this point, if Li Haoran has any mistakes, then Xu Yuchen's hope of restoring his health will be shattered again, which is something that Xu Lao does not want to see, and it is unacceptable!
Li Haoran and Bai Zihan don't matter, Yuquan Mountain is not something that ordinary people can come in casually, many of them can only appear on the news network, but Xu Zitong led Li Haoran and Bai Zihan to visit around, as long as it is a person who often appears in the news network, Li Haoran mostly knows where their mansion is, the architectural style of the mansion, and can guess the living habits of the leader!
After dinner, back to their respective rooms, Li Haoran was about to wash and sleep when Ouyang Yangming's phone called!
"Brother Haoran is me, Xiao Ming!"
Li Haoran frowned, feeling a little uneasy in his heart: "Xiao Ming, is there something important about calling me so late? Is there a change in my uncle's condition!"
Ou Yangming shook his head: "No, my father's condition has improved greatly after taking the medicine you prescribed, and after my grandfather used the medicine package you gave, he also said that the effect is obvious, the quality of sleep has improved a lot, and his body is much tougher than before!"
"Then what's the matter with you calling me in such a hurry?" Ou Yangming's tone was obviously abnormal, Li Haoran had learned the art of looking at qi, how could he not hear it!
"Brother Haoran, here's the thing, Rao Xue has returned to the capital, and Ming'er is about to get engaged to the son of the ancient family in the capital!"
"What?" Li Haoran couldn't believe his ears at all, "Rao Xue is getting engaged?"
"Yes, Brother Haoran, I also just got the news that Gu Li is holding a banquet in the Qingzhu Club to celebrate, for fear that the world will not know!"
Li Haoran forcibly endured the anger in his heart, calmed himself down with his true qi of slashing affection, and only after a while did he speak: "Well, I know about this, Ouyang know where Ming'er's engagement banquet is held?"
"Ming'er is also in the Qingzhu Club, the Gu Rao family has invited many dignitaries and nobles in Kyoto, Brother Haoran needs me to do something for you?" asked Ou Yangming.
Li Haoran thought for a while: "I'm still on Yuquan Mountain, I'll go down the mountain, you pick me up at the foot of the mountain!"
"Good!"
Li Haoran hurriedly got up and made a call to Xu Zitong: "Brother Haoran, call here so late, do you miss your sister-in-law?" but tonight my sister-in-law is mine...... Xu Zitong quipped, through the two days of getting along with Bai Zihan, Xu Zitong thought that Bai Zihan was indeed the most suitable candidate for Li Haoran, so he slowly relieved his careful thoughts and accepted the qiē in front of him!
"Zitong, I'm looking for you, I have something important and need to go down the mountain, you see?"
"You want to go down the mountain?" Xu Zitong accentuated his tone, looking a little shocked!
"Yes, I have to go down the mountain!"
"But grandpa has already explained that you are not allowed to go down the mountain until your brother's illness is cured, so I am afraid that something will go wrong!"
"Zitong, you have to help me with this, otherwise I'm really not in the mood to treat your brother, if I'm not in the state and reluctantly treat your brother, then it's the easiest thing to have problems!"
Xu Zitong bit his lip and wandered for a long time and said: "Okay, Brother Haoran's grandfather has already fallen asleep, I will personally send you down the mountain, but my sister-in-law must stay on the mountain, otherwise Grandpa and Uncle Zhang will be suspicious!"
"Good!"
Xu Zitong personally drove Li Haoran down the mountain, and asked Li Haoran several times along the way what happened, but Li Haoran was reluctant to talk about it, and when he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Ou Yangming was already waiting there, said hello to Xu Zitong, and went to Qingzhu, with the previous membership card, Li Haoran and Ou Yangming simply lived here!
The next day, the Qingzhu Club was very lively, in order to prepare for this engagement, the Gu family specially invited a planning company to come over to arrange, for the so-called cards, especially Gu Li, who is only 30 years old and is already the head of a county, and it is also the hope of the Gu family in the future, of course, the Gu family attaches importance to the object of their marriage, several uncles of the Rao family are the governors of various provinces, and the two can compete with other families in the highest position in the future!
The people of the Gu family came first, as the master of the family first is a matter of course, Gu Li's father Gu Wenwu is the deputy mayor of Kyoto, the strength can be seen, some officials large and small in the capital, and some local officials do not have a reason, there are not a few people, it seems to be extremely lively, but the old man of the Gu family did not appear!
At half past eleven o'clock at noon, several cars of the Rao family also rushed over, and the old man Rao Hui brought Rao Hui, Rao Chi, Rao Feng three sons, daughter-in-law and grandchildren to the scene.
The most brilliant thing is Rao Xue, when she entered, the audience was stunned! She walked into the hall elegantly step by step like a princess, and the crystal strawberries pinned to her bangs flickered with her footsteps, reflecting dazzling light.
The pure snow-white tunic with the pure black dress, like the last touch of white that can't break free from the darkness, as if the charming black is staring at it quietly, watching the white powerless struggle, waiting to devour it and occupy its last opportunity!
Solemn and frivolous, pure and evil......
She raised her head proudly, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, looking still so noble and cold.
Rao Xue's beauty amazed the audience, even Liu Yu and the son of the Qin family were envious, Rao Xue can be regarded as the beauty of the beauties among the children of the nobles in Kyoto, but due to political factors, the family did not agree to marry a third-rate aristocratic woman, otherwise, how could Rao Xue be the best in his turn to get Gu Li, it was just a flower inserted in cow dung, so angry that Liu Yu gritted his teeth, he really regretted not being at the beginning!
Under the signal of his father, Gu Li stepped forward and took Rao Xue's Qianqian jade hand, Rao Xue's face flashed a trace of disgust, but then showed a slight smile, although it was a smile, but it exuded a temperament that rejected people thousands of miles away, which made many men out of reach!
Li Haoran was at the scene, seeing that his beloved woman was held by another man who originally belonged to his hands, Li Haoran's heart was like a knife, if it wasn't for Ou Yangming holding him, I'm afraid he would have rushed up and slapped Gu Li twice!
Soon it was the so-called auspicious day, Gu Wenwu came to the stage to preside, what thank you for coming to participate in the engagement ceremony of Inuzi and Rao Xue, and then invited the old man of the Gu family, Gu Bai, and let him come to the stage to say a paragraph!
The next thing is that the old man Rao of the Rao family came to the stage to welcome his relatives and friends here, the content is basically the same and the official language, thank you for coming to the engagement ceremony!
The latter link, which is the most important part of this engagement ceremony, is the exchange of engagement rings between men and women, which is considered a successful completion of the engagement ceremony!
Gu Li took Rao Xue's hand and walked onto the rostrum, at this time Rao Xue's heart was also mixed, I really regretted why I was angry, why I agreed to the engagement of the Gu family, at this time, I am afraid that it is too late to regret it, the key is that I did not tell Li Haoran about this matter, Li Haoran didn't know that she was going to be engaged to other men at all, at this moment, she hoped that Li Haoran could appear in front of her, as long as Li Haoran could appear, she didn't care about anything, even if she made herself a concubine, she was willing, but Li Haoran, where are you?
Thinking of this, Rao Xue couldn't help but leave tears of remorse, which happened to be seen by Li Haoran!
"Yes, Rao Xue is not voluntary, she must have a last resort!" Li Haoran finally couldn't help it and rushed to the rostrum!
At the moment when Gu Li was about to put on an engagement ring for Rao Xue, Li Haoran rushed out and yelled, "Slow!"
"Haoran!" Rao Xue reacted immediately, turned around, and was about to run in the direction where Li Haoran was, but was held by Gu Li and failed to succeed!
"Let her go!" Li Haoran roared angrily.
"Who are you?Friend, it seems that the two Gurao families didn't invite you, right?"
Li Haoran snorted coldly: "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I want to take Rao Xue with me!"
"Take Rao Xue away, she is my fiancée, who are you?" Gu Li glared at Li Haoran viciously, in Kyoto's own Lao Tzu's territory, there was such a kid who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth dared to come to trouble him, if it weren't for so many people, Lao Tzu would definitely let you walk in and lie down!
"She's my woman!" Li Haoran said lightly.
"Your woman, boy, are you here to make trouble?" Xiaoxue, do you know him?" Gu Li forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and asked Rao Xue rhetorically!
The people of the Gu family don't know Li Haoran, but it doesn't mean that the people of the Rao family don't know Li Haoran, Rao Hui and Rao Chi hope that Rao Xue doesn't know this man, otherwise the Rao Gu family is going to look at each other today!
"I ...... No...... Know him!" Rao Xue gritted her teeth and denied it.
"Xiaoxue, I'm Haoran, what's wrong with you?"
"I don't know you at all?" Rao Xue asked rhetorically.
At this time, Li Haoran's heart was tumbling, and he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of pus and blood: "Xiaoxue, do you really remember me?" Originally, Li Haoran could have judged whether Rao Xue was lying through the technique of looking at qi, but at this moment, he had already entered the role, where could he calm down!
"Hao ......" saw Li Haoran vomiting blood, Rao Xue was worried, and was about to shout, but was stopped by Gu Li, she was just angry, Li Haoran didn't come to her for so long, she was deliberately angry Li Haoran, who knew that Li Haoran cared so much about herself, and actually vomited blood!
At this time, Rao Feng saw Li Haoran's appearance, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Haoran, after all, Li Haoran cured his cancer, and he couldn't be like the rest of the Rao family, turning his face and not recognizing people, and said: "Haoran, Xiaoxue's matter is already a deal, you better go......"
Li Haoran used his innate true qi to quickly regulate his body, and then pushed away Rao Feng's support, and said, "Uncle Feng, I'm fine, I must take a little snow with me today!"
"Hehe, dare to come to my ancient house to rob your relatives, I think you are tired of living, you are Li Haoran, I have heard of you, Xiaoxue is already my fiancée, what qualifications do you have to take her away?"
"Your ring doesn't count if you haven't put it on yet!" After speaking, Li Haoran shot out a golden needle, and shot the diamond ring that Gu Li was going to wear on Rao Xue's hand to the row of glasses not far away, and the glass was not broken, which shocked some masters of practicing handles on the scene, this kid's internal cultivation is not bad!
"You ......"
Li Haoran came to Rao Xue with a quick step, shook Gu Li's hand and grabbed Rao Xue, hugged Rao Xue's slender waist, and flew back to the position just now!
"I'm sorry, Xiaoxue, I'm late!" Li Haoran looked very remorseful!
"No, no, you came in time!" Rao Xue's psychological state at this time had changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and Li Haoran was really caught off guard and happy to appear, just like the Zixia Fairy and the Supreme Treasure!
My crush is a hero of the world, and I know that one day, he will appear in a high-profile situation, dressed in golden armor, and stepping on the seven-colored clouds to marry me.
"Rao Xue, is your choice me or him?" Gu Li was somehow fixed there by Li Haoran and couldn't move, so he had to complain angrily!
"Of course, my choice is Li Haoran, Gu Li, I have never loved you from beginning to end, my heart has always been here with Li Haoran, and I am already Li Haoran's person, you still die of this heart!"
"You ......"
......The scene was in an uproar, I didn't expect that at the engagement ceremony of the Gu family, the bride-to-be would say such a thing, even if she was married, Gu Li was wearing a huge green hat on her head!
