The Two-Faced Venerate Emperor

Chapter 1070 – Steal Back Home To Keep!

However, today was Yan Lass’s big day, the Crazy Sage believes it will spoil the lass’s reputation if he starts a scene.

That was why even when on the verge of vomiting blood from anger, the Crazy Sage still endured it and allowed these people to continue talking. However, he made sure to order the members to remember every single one of the gossipers, he would deal with them after today has ended.

Bai Li Ren’s expression was also ugly, what is the Shang Qiu Clan implying by not coming when the auspicious hour has arrived? Backing out?

Did they really think the Bai Li Clan are pushovers? They want to trample on the reputation of the Bai Li Clan? Or did the entourage encounter an accident along the way?

No matter what, Bai Li Ren must get to the bottom of things first.

He waved his hand to call for his subordinates, ordering them to check the road to see where the Shang Qiu Clan was and if they were reaching. To check if they were still on the road or did not come at all.

Huan Qing Yan calmly sat in her seat, she had naturally heard all the discussions and had also noticed the anxious and gloomy mood of the Bai Li Clan members. However, deep down in her heart, she was feeling a sense of joy and relaxation that she should not be having.

If, if the Shang Qiu Clan really backed out, then didn’t it meant that she could...

Bai Li Jia Bao thought Huan Qing Yan was hurt by the gossipers when she saw the latter lowering her head, the former whispered to Huan Qing Yan to console her: “Ignore the sour words of those people, they are only jealous of you, jealous that you can marry into the Shang Qiu Clan. You should not worry as well, the auspicious hour is long, the Shang Qiu Clan might arrive soon.”

Huan Qing Yan smiled and nodded: “I am okay, I am not worried!”

“Sister Qing Yan, you don’t need to be afraid! The old ancestor is here, the elder loves to protect the juniors the most! Even if the Shang Qiu Clan really did not come, it is also nothing much. Since I had always found that he cannot be compared to Young Master Ya. If this really did not go through, you can always marry Young Master Ya, I believe he cannot wait to do so as well!”

Huan Qing Yan’s body froze for a moment when she heard Bai Li Jia Bao’s words, she did not know what her heart was feeling; shock, sorrow, or two parts happy?

She lowered her head to ponder when Bai Li Jia Bao suddenly exclaimed: “Which family is that baby from, he is soooo cute! I really want to steal it back home to keep!”

Huan Qing Yan lifted her head and saw a tiny figure at the entrance of the hall; he has round arms and legs, with a pink and healthy face which made him looked as though he was a cute baby celestial straight out from a painting.

The baby was wobbling as he crossed the doorstep and tripped. Fortunately, the ground was layered with a thick carpet and the little baby stood up unhurt and patted the dust off himself.

He lifted his head and used his big glossy eyes to sweep through the great hall before revealing a dimpled smile at Huan Qing Yan’s direction and he started walking unsteadily towards her direction.

Along the way, he would knock on a chair or table by accident or trip over something else and fall.

Yet the child was not finicky; he did not cry when he fell as well. He only laughed as he stood up and continued walking forward.

The guests within the great hall were feeling awkward when the family from the male side did not arrive and saw that the Bai Li Clan’s Half-Sage and Clan Patriarch were wearing unhappy expressions.

Making them feel as though they were sitting on a pincushion.

Everyone was here to deliver gifts and enjoy a round of good food and drinks, using the opportunity to build up good relations or maybe even benefit from this event. They did not expect to encounter a situation where the groom-to-be would back out, causing the family members of the female side to look as though they wanted to kill everyone present to silence them?

That was why the great hall was abnormally quiet, no one dared to speak or look around casually. They stiffly sat in their seats as though they were attending a funeral instead of an engagement ceremony.

That was why the gazes of everyone uncontrollably fell onto the cute baby who melted their hearts the very moment he suddenly appeared.
