The Lucky Bride is Pretty and Delicate

Chapter 61: Shock

Liu Sanniang shouted with all her might. She said to Liu Yinniang that Liu Shun was not a good person and that she shouldn’t marry him.

However, Liu Yinniang did not seem to hear her and still got married happily. Liu Shun held her hand and walked into the darkness.

When Liu Sanniang woke up, she was covered in sweat. Looking out of the window, the sky was still not bright.

Liu Sanniang recalled her dream from last night and was no longer sleepy.

In her dream, Liu Yinniang married Liu Shun and disappeared into the darkness. Liu Sanniang’s mood was affected. After she was reborn, she had had a few dreams and they were all omens that something bad was about to happen.

Because of that, Liu Sanniang felt a little depressed.

During the day, she heard some noises outside the door. Liu Sanniang was curious. She opened the door to find a group of people in red and green stopping at Liu Yinniang’s house, carrying a few large boxes.

The woman in the lead was wearing heavy makeup and smiling. A big red flower by her ear symbolized her status as a matchmaker.

Liu Sanniang closed the door. She still couldn’t forget the scene she saw in her dream. She had a feeling that once Liu Yinniang married Liu Shun, she would walk into the darkness just like in her dream.

In her previous life, she did not know much about Liu Yinniang. She only knew that after Liu Yinniang married the butcher in Ling County, she led a good life.

Every time Liu Yinniang returned home, she would bring back a lot of gifts. This made Madam Bai very proud. It was precisely because of this that Madam Wei was quite angry. After all, in Madam Wei’s eyes, her daughter was much better than Liu Yinniang, but she still stayed single all her life.

Liu Sanniang thought for a moment and prepared to go out.

Liu Shun was not a good person. Liu Sanniang did not want Liu Yinniang to marry him. She wanted to help her marry the guy in her previous life.

Madam Wei worked as a chef at the Yellow Crane Restaurant. Liu Sanniang used to go there often. After she turned 14 years old, Madam Wei stopped her from going out too much.

When a girl was at the age for marriage, she would have to stay at home to wait for her future husband and would seldom appear in public.

Business at Yellow Crane Restaurant was as good as ever.

When Liu Sanniang entered, a waiter came up to her. “Miss, what do you want to eat?”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “I’m here to look for Chef Wei. I’m her daughter.”

The waiter looked at Liu Sanniang and smiled. “Okay, I’ll call her for you immediately.”

Madam Wei had been a chef at the Yellow Crane Restaurant for more than ten years. Her culinary skills were superb, and now her main job was experimenting with new dishes.

Madam Wei came out of the kitchen and pulled Liu Sanniang upstairs. She asked the waiter to make a pot of tea.

After entering the private room and sitting down, Madam Wei asked immediately. “What’s wrong?”

Liu Sanniang told Madam Wei about Liu Yinniang’s marriage.

Madam Wei frowned. “Sanniang, I know you’re kind, but…”

Madam Wei really didn’t want to look for Madam Bai. She couldn’t stand Madam Bai’s sarcastic way of talking and Madam Bai couldn’t stand her arrogance.

However, before Madam Wei could finish speaking, Liu Sanniang grabbed her hand and shook it. “Mother, Liu Shun is not a good person. If Yinniang marries him, her life will be ruined.”

Madam Wei looked at Liu Sanniang and asked solemnly. “Sanniang, why did you say that Liu Shun is not a good person?”

Liu Sanniang said, “Mother, do you still remember what happened in March at Liu Cheng’s house.”

Madam Wei nodded. Of course she remembered. She would never forget it for the rest of her life.

If the magistrate didn’t find the evidence to prove her innocence, she would probably still be in jail.

Liu Sanniang told Madam Wei seriously, “Mother, originally, the case would have been solved after the coroner did the autopsy, but the mortuary suddenly burnt down. At that time, Liu Cheng’s family accused Father of bribing the coroner. The situation was very serious at that time, and the one who caused all this was Liu Shun. He was the one who asked Liu Cheng to burn the mortuary. I know this because I read Liu Cheng’s mind. Moreover, it was also Liu Shun who instigated Liu Cheng to kill his wife.”

Madam Wei’s expression changed. “Sanniang, are you saying that Liu Shun was the mastermind behind it all?”

Madam Wei looked at Liu Sanniang in disbelief, but judging from the genuine look on Sanniang’s face, she knew that what her daughter said was true.

It was hard to imagine how vicious a person had to be to commit those crimes and not feel any guilt.

Back then, she rejected Liu Shun’s proposal to marry her daughter because he was Liu Cheng’s cousin. However, she did not expect Liu Shun to be such a person.

Liu Sanniang nodded. “Mother, please persuade Third Aunt to turn down the marriage for her daughter.”

Madam Wei’s expression was a little solemn. She reached out and touched Liu Sanniang’s hair. “Sanniang, I’ll try. You’re really a kind girl.”

How could God bear to see such a good girl leading the rest of her life alone?

Liu Sanniang smiled. She had heard Madam Wei’s worry.

If she had the chance, she would be willing to marry. She would try to leave no regrets in this life.

After Madam Wei agreed, Liu Sanniang left the Yellow Crane Restaurant and went home.

Liu Sanniang felt that someone was following her, but when she turned around, she could not see anyone.

When they reached Willow Alley, the sound of footsteps suddenly quickened. Liu Sanniang was shocked by the sudden approaching footsteps. She turned around and saw Liu Shun dressed in white.

Liu Shun was dressed like a scholar. His white clothes made him look handsome and elegant.

If she did not know who he actually was, Liu Shun would look exactly like the husband Liu Sanniang wanted.

Liu Shun smiled at her and cupped his hands. “Miss Liu.”

Liu Sanniang looked at Liu Shun’s smile and felt a chill run down her spine.

Even though Liu Shun was smiling, and his smile was very gentle, Liu Sanniang could still feel the malice emanating from his body. The darkness hidden in his eyes was like a demon as he looked at her covetously.

Liu Sanniang did not want to talk to Liu Shun at all. She quickened her pace and wanted to go home as soon as possible.

However, Liu Shun kept walking by her side.

Liu Sanniang felt disgusted and started running.

Liu Shun took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes as he watched Liu Sanniang run away. “She smells really good…
