Chapter 841: Huo Yingcheng, Yu Bao’er (13)
At 5 am, before the wedding started, Yu Bao’er was up early.
She stealthily left Huo Yingcheng’s room while there wasn’t anyone around.
The bridesmaid dress that she had to change into was in her room.
At this hour, the servants were starting to get busy, so likely no one would notice where she came out from. It took Yu Bao’er much effort before she successfully found a female servant who could understand Mandarin, to ask for directions to her room.
Yu Bao’er had just entered her room to change into the bridesmaid dress when her phone rang.
The makeup artist was going to help her do her makeup and styling.
The royal palace was indeed extravagant; even the bridesmaids had their makeup artists and makeup room.
When Yu Bao’er went over and opened the door, the makeup artist started rambling on things that she could not comprehend.
Yu Bao’er: “...”
Geez, why couldn’t they have sent a makeup artist who could speak Mandarin?
Thankfully they likely knew that Yu Bao’er couldn’t speak English, for a translator went in subsequently to facilitate communication between the makeup artist and Yu Bao’er.
After much busying, Yu Bao’er was dolled up nicely and went on to take the bridesmaid vehicle to head to the church.
When it came to weddings, the customs overseas differed in some aspects from what they did in China. Add to the fact that Gu Qingjiu was around, to begin with, the groom didn’t have to meet his bride at her home before escorting her back to his own home for the wedding.
But the awkward thing for Yu Bao’er was, Huo Yingcheng was in the same car.
After all, he was one of the best men.
The duo secretly sized up each other ever since they got into the car. Huo Yingcheng felt that judging from the way Yu Bao’er was dressed, he couldn’t at all see the boorish woman of last night.
Yu Bao’er felt that somehow Huo Yingcheng looked kind of handsome and gentlemanly dressed in this manner.
Among the bridesmaids, other than Yu Bao’er who was from China, the other bridesmaids who were from Penalan were chatting merrily among themselves.
She didn’t know the other best men either...
Except for Huo Yingcheng.
It seemed like Huo Yingcheng was of rather high status. At least when he spoke with others, the others didn’t seem to mind his nonchalant attitude. Instead, they were rather cautious.
After a long silence, Yu Bao’er couldn’t hold it back anymore. “Commander Huo, I need to ask you something. Last night when I got drunk that person who had tried to... who was he?”
Huo Yingcheng narrowed his eyes slightly. “Why? Surely you’re not thinking of walloping him? He’s not someone you can afford to mess with.”
Yu Bao’er: “...”
What a brutal truth.
“Judging from your performance yesterday, since you can’t drink, then you should try to stay away from alcohol. Be more careful at tonight’s wedding banquet. Don’t make Qingjiu have to worry about you”
“I know.”
Yu Bao’er was indignant. “What happened last night was an accident. I was drinking only fruit juice and had no idea that there was wine amongst them...”
As many of the guests liked wine, it was natural that there was wine available.
Huo Yingcheng rolled his eyes, then crossed his arms and looked out the car window.
His behavior made Yu Bao’er feel like smacking him.
They subsequently arrived at the wedding venue.
As a bridesmaid, seeing that her good friend Gu Qingjiu was able to find her happiness, Yu Bao’er felt touched.
Watching as Gu Qingjiu walked towards Helian Niancheng with her arm hooked around her father’s, Yu Bao’er felt so touched it was as if she was watching her daughter get married...
As hot tears welled up in her eyes, she saw that opposite of her, Huo Yingcheng was gazing at her with an expression of mockery.
The contempt in his eyes upon seeing her being touched to tears was very obvious.
Yu Bao’er: “...”
Dammit. That touched feeling vanished in an instant!
She very much wanted to thank him, but why was this person so punch-worthy?
