Temporary Husband: The Pregnant Wife Runs Away

Chapter 2: A Photo Of The Dead At The Wedding

“Brother… Brother Yun!” Li Haodong’s three sons shouted in unison.

“Uncle, it’s been a long time.”

The word “uncle” made Li Haodong tremble. He stood up and laughed, “It has indeed been a long time. I think the security guards wouldn’t have recognized you.”

“You mean those useless bums outside?” The man turned to one side, and there were already eight trained men standing outside the wide opened door. They were all dressed in the same bright silver suits, and security guards of the Li family had long been lying under their feet.

“What, are you linked to ‘Hidden’?” Li Haodong asked in disbelief.

It was said that Hidden was a transparent organization, and there was nothing that it couldn’t succeed in doing as long as it accepted something that it was entrusted to do. Whether it involved business or political circles, the police or the triads, or even transnational cases, they were just a piece of cake to them.

“I’m not here to catch up with you. I’ve already talked to the Tang family, I’ll marry the woman from the Tang family! I will take over as the president of Li Enterprise tomorrow!”

“Wait a minute! This condition is not applicable to you!”

His footsteps stopped, his cold gaze slowly swept over, and his thin lips curled, “Not applicable? Eighteen years ago, the Li family sold a person to the Tang family, today I will marry a woman from the Tang family! And ‘Li Enterprise’ is just a tool I use to defeat Tang Enterprise. It’ll be your turn after I’m done dealing with the Tang family.”

The voice was deep and powerful, but it made one’s blood run cold.

The man came and went in less than a minute. If it weren’t for the security guards lying outside the door, one might have thought that it was a dream.

Li Haodong collapsed on the sofa. The wolf cub of yesteryear had now become a deadly predator. His cold expression and sinister eyes made him look like Asura from hell, and his vicious aura made others tremble with fear.

“Dad, why did Brother Yun say that the Li family sold someone to the Tang family eighteen years ago?” Li Zhi asked doubtfully.

“This is not something that you should ask! What you should do now is to find a way to stop Li Yunshen from taking away ‘Li Enterprise’!”

Li Haodong reprimanded him fiercely before stalking off, leaving his three sons looking at each other blankly.

…

Three days later, it was a full moon.

As night fell, City A, which was known as the most beautiful coastal city in the world, was surrounded by romantic warm lights, looking as bright as day.

A grand wedding was being held here, and it was opened to the public with the whole process filmed by the media.

There were still luxury cars coming non-stop at this time, and there was no doubt that this was a wedding that had stirred up a worldwide sensation.

It was time for the wedding ceremony, and the wedding march could be heard at the romantic wedding venue.

In accordance with old customs, the bride took her father’s arm as she entered the door of happiness.

Everyone was stunned by the beauty of the bride. She was so petite, lovable, and refined, like a fairy from heaven.

However, the bride stood at the door of happiness for a long time but did not see the groom come over to walk down the red carpet with her, because the groom wasn’t even there!

Everyone knew that the groom had not come, but no one notified the bride and they had even let her enter the venue as per normal, deliberately wanting to embarrass the bride and her family.

She could neither retreat nor advance.

The introverted Tang Xin held the bouquet tightly, lowered her head, and dared not meet anyone’s eyes, as they would be filled with scorn and ridicule.

There was no one from the Li family at the seats for guests, and the Tang family had no one present other than her father, who had to take her in the arm to walk down red carpet.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes…

The bride lowered her head even more, and the bride’s father forced himself to keep his head up and his back straight.

It was not until nearly forty minutes had passed that someone shouted, “The bridegroom is here!”

Tang Xin couldn’t help but turn her head.

The figure that appeared at the entrance of the church was standing tall and straight, wearing a formal suit. However, his angular face was cold and grim, and…

He was even holding a photo of a dead person in his hands!

Some people stood up in astonishment, while some exclaimed.

The sound of people whispering to one another suddenly filled the place.

Tang Zhenhai’s first reaction after seeing this was to hold his daughter tight, afraid that she couldn’t endure and run away.

“No… he isn’t…” Tang Xin murmured in horror, and even the makeup on her face couldn’t conceal her paleness.

He’s not the eldest son of the Li family Li Zhi, he’s not…

The man immediately came to her and stood still. The coldness emanating from him struck her, making her feel as though she was in an ice cellar.

His bride was beautiful — this was Li Yunshen’s first thought when he saw her.

Even though he had seen her photo in the investigation materials, she was even more beautiful in real life, almost other-worldly. Her palm-sized heart-shaped face and exquisite facial features were graceful and pure, neither too alluring nor too plain. In particular, her bright eyes were looking at him with innocence and fear at this moment, making her look like a lost elf who had entered the human world by mistake.

She was delicate and beautiful, but this had no influence on him at all!

“I promised her I would let her witness my happiness!” He yanked his bride over, looked down, and said cruelly.

The big palm that had suddenly clasped on her waist made Tang Xin tremble, and her knees went weak when she saw the photo in his hand.

The girl’s smile was very bright, and also… very creepy.

“You can start,” Li Yunshen announced to his assistant, who was also the best man.

Although absurd, no one dared to say that what he was doing was inappropriate, because his aura was very repressive and no one dared to provoke him.

“Hold… hold on!” Unexpectedly, the aggrieved bride spoke. Although her voice was as low as a mosquito’s buzzing, it still got to the hearts of those present.
