Seeing Zhou Hanyun leave like that, Yang Yan's gaze became increasingly profound.

At this moment, the elder on the stage had already finished his congratulatory speech.

He sat there in a bold and imposing manner, fully displaying the demeanor of a superior.

"Please wait a moment, everyone. My fiancée is preparing to meet you all now! Moreover, there's a surprise waiting for you later!"

Li Zheng said with a smile.

Arriving backstage, Zhou Hanyun looked around. Just as she awaited the next instructions from the other party, a few women suddenly approached and dragged Zhou Hanyun into a room without a word.

Inside the room, the women took out a white wedding dress and handed it to Zhou Hanyun, saying:

"The young master instructed to have you wear this."

Zhou Hanyun glanced at the wedding dress, her eyes darkening, not intending to wear it.

"Sister-in-law, I think you'd better wear this dress. After all, you wish for your grandfather to live a few more years, don't you?"

Li Faction's sinister voice suddenly sounded behind Zhou Hanyun.

"What exactly do you want? You know, even if I wear the dress now, when I go out, do you think I'll let you manipulate me?"

"Moreover, do you think others won't suspect such an engagement ceremony?"

Zhou Hanyun said coldly, looking at Li Faction.

"Heh, going out? After tonight, sister-in-law, you will belong to the Li Family. Not just you, your sister will be part of the Li Family too!"

"Of course, you are my brother's, and Zhou Hanyu is mine. As for suspecting the ceremony, do you think anyone will suspect Mr. Zhou?"

Li Faction said with a smile.

"What do you mean by that?"

Zhou Hanyun asked Li Faction.

"Mr. Zhou will also attend the ceremony later. Do you think anyone will suspect?"

Li Faction said arrogantly.

"Impossible, you use my grandfather to threaten me, and what else can you use to threaten my grandfather?"

"If it's using me or Hanyu to threaten him, I think you've got the wrong idea."

Zhou Hanyun said, looking at Li Faction.

"Haha! We understand your grandfather's nature. If it's just using you or Zhou Hanyu to threaten him, then maybe it wouldn't work."

"But if we change some people, it will certainly succeed!"

Li Faction said with a cold snort.

"Other people?"

Zhou Hanyun thought for a moment, then looked at Li Faction in surprise and said:

"You dare to use other elders to threaten him! Are you crazy? Don't you know what backgrounds those old men have?"

Li Faction laughed heartily:

"Old war buddies who've not seen each other for long meet suddenly; getting too excited and having a heart attack isn't problematic, is it?"

Zhou Hanyun trembled with rage!

"Crazy, you two brothers are truly lunatics."

"Heh! We're still young, what's wrong with going a bit crazy? Sister-in-law, I advise you to hurry and change clothes!"

"Otherwise, my brother might lose patience. If anything unpleasant happens, it won't be us regretting it."

After saying this, Li Faction turned and walked toward the door.

Watching Li Faction leave, Zhou Hanyun hesitated for a full five seconds before gritting her teeth and taking the wedding dress to start changing.

As Zhou Hanyun remained unseen for a long time, Yang Yan pulled out a jade pendant and looked at it.

Once assuring Zhou Hanyun's safety, he turned his head back to fix his gaze on Li Zheng on the stage.

As long as Zhou Hanyun is safe, no matter what trickery, he can handle it.

Li Zheng met Yang Yan's gaze with a mysterious smile.

Suddenly, his phone rang.

He pulled out his phone and glanced at it, the smile on his face growing broader.

"Alright, I suppose everyone is growing impatient. I won't keep you waiting any longer; let me bring my fiancée up and unveil today's second surprise."

Li Zheng glanced across the audience and finally fixed his eyes on Yang Yan again, then smiled lightly and walked away.

Watching Li Zheng leave, Yang Yan's right eye twitched gently.

The saying goes, left eye for fortune, right eye for misfortune.

At this moment, Yang Yan's right eye was twitching fiercely.

As someone from the Hidden World, he knew a little about such sayings.

Coupled with some unsettling premonitions, Yang Yan knew something bad was bound to happen tonight.

"Hello! It's me, Xiaocao, where are you now?"

Yang Yan pulled out his phone and dialed Xiaocao's number.

Just last night, Xiaocao arrived in the Imperial Capital.

However, Yang Yan initially wanted her to rest for a few days, so he hadn't gone to disturb her.

"Right outside Times Hotel."

Xiaocao replied.

"Quickly find out what exactly the situation with tonight's banquet is, and hurry."

Yang Yan coldly instructed.

Xiaocao didn't respond but hung up directly.

She always followed Yang Yan's orders without a hint of perfunctoriness.

As the stage lights changed once more, the wedding march suddenly played, amplifying Yang Yan's sense of foreboding.

When Li Zheng led Zhou Hanyun, dressed in a wedding gown, up onto the stage, Yang Yan stood up sharply, eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Damn it, what did he do to Hanyun?"

At the moment Li Zheng appeared holding Zhou Hanyun's hand, Yang Yan almost couldn't resist going up and taking out Li Zheng directly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the second surprise I wanted to give everyone is, today isn't my engagement day, oh!"

Li Zheng glancing at the stunning Zhou Hanyun beside him, then continued with a smile:

"Today is my wedding day!"

"Wow!"

With Li Zheng's words, cheers erupted from the audience.

"Don't get excited, everyone; don't get excited. It's all arranged by my wife, the beautiful Miss Zhou Hanyun."

"She said she didn't want our wedding to be too extravagant, hence today's scene. Surely, you won't blame me, will you?"

Li Zheng said with a face full of smiles.

"Master Li played this hand splendidly! Silently giving everyone such a big surprise. Honestly, I don't even know what to say."

Someone in the audience shouted loudly.

"Sorry, sorry!" Li Zheng clasped his hands repeatedly, "After today, I'll properly apologize to everyone. But for now, please offer me your blessings!"

At some unknown point, a dapper and spirited host appeared on stage, holding a microphone and speaking passionately:

"Let's invite the bride's grandfather, Mr. Zhou, to the stage to bless our newlyweds."

After the host's words, Mr. Zhou walked onto the stage with Dragon Walk and Tiger Stride.

"Haha! Buddy, never thought we'd end up being related through marriage, huh?"

Li Dongguo said to Mr. Zhou, full of smiles.

"Heh! Yes, I didn't expect us to be related through marriage either! Li Dongguo, you have an extraordinary grandson."

Mr. Zhou said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.

"Hmm?"

Li Dongguo looked at Mr. Zhou with some confusion.

He could certainly hear that Mr. Zhou was speaking with hidden meanings.
