Chapter 1267: Chapter 1264: The Wedding Ceremony Can Begin

Qi Longbing glanced at her and said nothing.

"I’ll go with you." Lin Mingxin said, as she took her arm and skirt, walking towards the side hall of the church.

At this time, after the two left, Fang Mingrui walked over towards Qi Longbing.

"Young Master, almost everyone is here, we can proceed with the wedding ceremony." Fang Mingrui said with a smile. Watching his biological son finally being able to marry a beautiful bride, Fang Mingrui felt somewhat comforted. Although it was impossible for him to hear Qi Longbing call him father, what did it matter? Qi Longbing had grown up under his watch and was now an outstanding success. These things already filled Fang Mingrui with contentment.

"Mm. Thank you, Uncle Fang. Why don’t you rest in the VIP room with me? Hua Xiaomo probably needs to touch up her makeup and won’t be out anytime soon." Qi Longbing said calmly, returning a smile to Fang Mingrui.

"Alright, alright." Fang Mingrui immediately replied. He then followed Qi Longbing towards the VIP room.

...

Outside the restroom was a makeup room; this royal-level church was quite luxurious.

Hua Xiaomo sat in the makeup chair, as two makeup artists approached, lifted her veil, and took out a blush puff to touch up her makeup. As soon as it touched her face, Hua Xiaomo turned her head away.

"Don’t touch me~" Hua Xiaomo snapped.

The makeup artists stood bewildered in place.

At this moment, Lin Mingxin heard the scolding and walked towards them.

"You all leave." Lin Mingxin instructed, then glanced at the two makeup artists.

After the two makeup artists left, only Lin Mingxin and Hua Xiaomo remained in the makeup room. As soon as the door closed, Hua Xiaomo stood up in panic, her face turning ashen white, her delicate eyebrows knitted together, sweating even more profusely than earlier in the car, causing her makeup to smear from the excessive sweating.

"Sister Xiao Mo, what’s wrong with you?" Lin Mingxin hurriedly asked, grabbing her shoulder, but felt icy coldness where she touched. Lin Mingxin exclaimed, "Why are you so cold? What’s wrong, Sister Xiao Mo? Don’t scare me!"

Overwhelmed with anxiety, Hua Xiaomo’s nose tingled, and uncontrollable tears burst from her eyes.

"I—I don’t want to get married, I don’t want to marry him, Xiner, help me, help me... help me..." Hua Xiaomo sobbed, her tear-blurred vision.

Uh...

"Sister Xiao Mo, what are you saying?!" Lin Mingxin felt dizzy from what she heard. Saying she doesn’t want to marry at this point—gosh! Why didn’t she say this earlier? However, considering Hua Xiaomo’s situation, she indeed couldn’t refuse this marriage. Qi Longbing was such a dominant person who took whatever he desired easily, and if he wanted Hua Xiaomo, she had to marry him... whether she agreed or not, it was as simple as that... she had no choice; she was just a puppet for his desires...

Oh... tragedy...

Hua Xiaomo weakly held Lin Mingxin’s hand with a melancholic expression.

"I don’t love Qi Longbing, Xiner, I can’t marry Qi Longbing... I love Zi Yunsui, I’ve had his child, I love Zi Yunsui!!" Hua Xiaomo struggled to speak, her gleaming eyes looking at Lin Mingxin with a mix of urgency and hope.

Child? She had Zi Yunsui’s child?! Uh...

Momentary doubt appeared on Lin Mingxin’s delicate face...

"Sister Xiao Mo, don’t be confused, would you give up the chance to join a wealthy family? Marrying Brother Long Bing would give you everything, a life of endless riches... which many people only dream of..." Lin Mingxin tried to persuade her.

But Hua Xiaomo simply shook her head repeatedly, tears falling from her shaking, her expression utterly defeated.

"I don’t care, I don’t care, I don’t care about anything, I only want Zi Yunsui, only my Hanhan... Xiner... I want to escape, I must escape..." Hua Xiaomo replied firmly. Next, she reached over her face, removing the crown from her head, then tore off her veil, throwing it on the ground.

Seeing Hua Xiaomo’s determined expression, Lin Mingxin was also alarmed. An escape plan?

"Sister Xiao Mo, have you thought this through? If you run away, Brother Long Bing will be furious! You know his temper, I don’t know what he would do... And with so many people waiting outside, I’m not sure you can get out?" Lin Mingxin’s heart was also somewhat chaotic. Honestly speaking, she couldn’t agree with Qi Longbing’s forced marriage approach. Although she had feelings for Zi Yunsui, she didn’t want to see him upset, nor did she want Hua Xiaomo caught between two men, pushing her into a tragic path. Upon reflection, as she was about to get married, her heart was still thinking of Zi Yunsui... They—they were truly a pair of ill-fated lovers.

"I can’t worry about that now, Xiner, I truly can’t hesitate any longer, I cannot step into that hall, I’d rather die than enter that church!!" Hua Xiaomo said fiercely, her demeanor turning tragic, her brilliant eyes shining with unwavering determination.

Uh, after hearing this, Lin Mingxin realized this was irreversible. She believed Sister Xiao Mo could do anything... if forced to complete the wedding, she might not survive. More pain would be felt by all three. If she brings them together, they could all be happy, and perhaps Brother Long Bing could truly give up!

Thinking of these things, Lin Mingxin’s bright eyes darkened.

"Alright, Sister Xiao Mo, I’ll help you, but don’t regret this!!" Lin Mingxin warned.

"I won’t regret it, I would only regret marrying Qi Longbing. Thank you, Xiner." Hua Xiaomo replied. With rain-brined tears, she forced a smile.

"Okay, with your word, I’ll help you escape." Lin Mingxin said, immediately taking out a spare blue cocktail dress from her bag and handing it to her. She said gently, "Here, quickly change into this."

Looking at Hua Xiaomo, she felt a sense of helplessness. Hoping she truly ends up alright.

"Mm." Hua Xiaomo replied, taking the dress and, with Lin Mingxin’s help, removed her wedding dress and put on Lin Mingxin’s blue cocktail dress.

Afterwards, glancing at her face, it still seemed too obvious.

"Uh, if only there were a wig..." Lin Mingxin mused.

"I have one." Hua Xiaomo smiled and pointed at her bag.

Lin Mingxin was startled upon hearing this. Uh, had she planned to escape all along?!

Hua Xiaomo quickly opened her white bag, taking out a long, curly wig and placed it on her head.
