Chapter 2645: You Don’t Know Me at All
Lu Yuanfan was extremely frustrated. The two already had a marital relationship, but they wouldn’t get married.
“What are you going to do if you don’t get married? You tell me what you want to do. You better not tell me that Prince Chen was like your sister and Li Yu and took that other path.” Lu Yuanfan said somewhat recklessly.
It was quite awkward for a father to say such things to his daughter.
Lu Junning’s face turned ashen. “I won’t get married, Father. You don’t know me at all.”
“If you don’t tell me, how am I supposed to know what you’re thinking? You two have already done the deed, what else do you want to do? Are you willing to marry or not?” Lu Yuanfan issued his final ultimatum.
“I won’t marry, Father. You’ve never considered me your daughter. The only one you care about is Lu Mingxuan. I don’t know why Mother even still had hope that you’d care about us?” Lu Junning turned and walked away.
Lu Yuanfan was so enraged that he felt like he was going to have a brain hemorrhage.
However, Lu Junning had really wrongly blamed him this time. Lu Yuanfan didn’t care about Lu Mingxuan. The person he loved the most was himself, his power.
On the day of the wedding, Lu Mingxuan was assisted in wearing her bridal gown and then helped out of the room.
Still feeling uneasy, Lu Yuanfan asked the matchmaker to lift Lu Mingxuan’s veil and take a look.
Seeing that it was his eldest daughter, Lu Mingxuan, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Since you’re getting married, you have to become more sensible. I will arrange for some people to accompany you until you enter Prince Chen’s residence.”
“Thank you, Father,” Lu Mingxuan expressed her gratitude.
Lu Mingxuan was helped onto the bridal sedan, while Shen Yichen sat on horseback, his expression like he had nothing left to live for. He was searching for Lu Junning’s figure with his eyes.
But Lu Junning never appeared, making Shen Yichen’s expression even more dim.
Shen Yichen was extra slow with every step of the process, occasionally looking back, but Lu Junning never appeared.
Shen Yichen originally wanted to just provoke Lu Junning. As long as she showed up now and asked him not to marry someone else, he would disregard everything.
But Lu Junning didn’t show up.
Lu Yuanfan knew what Shen Yichen was waiting for and could only say, “Prince, the auspicious time is passing.”
Shen Yichen’s face trembled, and in the end, he turned his horse’s head and left…
The wedding procession gradually moved away, with all the blowing and beating of festive instruments.
Another bride was married off, and she was even using her name. Ning Shu couldn’t help but shake her head. She turned around and saw Lu Junning standing there, motionless.
“Second Sister.” Ning Shu called out.
Lu Junning turned and walked away, but her figure looked very desolate.
Opportunities should be seized. If one has decided to live a life of solitude, then they should stop being bothered over things like these. However, Lu Junning waited until she lost her opportunity and then acted like she was blindsided, betrayed, and in despair.
Ning Shu wondered what would happen between Lu Junning and Shen Yichen in the end. Would they end up as star-crossed lovers?
If they continued to still have strong feelings for each other, with Shen Yichen already married and Lu Mingxuan in the mix, Lu Mingxuan would still be the legal wife.
With Lu Junning’s temperament, could she really tolerate being a concubine while her half-sister was the legal wife?
In the beginning, Lu Junning had arranged for Lu Yujing to steal Lu Mingxuan’s marriage opportunity, and now Lu Mingxuan had snatched her man and married over in her place.
What goes around comes around.
Ning Shu felt that now that there were only her and Lu Junning left in the mansion, she’d have to go head to head against Lu Junning again.
Lu Junning’s desolate figure was truly heartbreaking.
“Father, have you found what you’ve lost?” Ning Shu asked Lu Yuanfan.
Lu Yuanfan’s face immediately darkened. On such a joyous day, she had to bring up such matters.
She really had no sense of timing.
Lu Yuanfan said directly, “I found it.”
Ning Shu nodded, “It’s good that you found it.” As if.
