The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

5: The Wedding

An Xiaoning opened the door and alighted from the car. "Let's meet at the Civil Administration Bureau at 3 PM," she said to Jin Qingyan, then she quickly waved him goodbye while closing the door.

Watching her figure recede, Jin Qingyan began to develop a mix of emotions.

--

Within just 10 minutes, news of Jin Qingyan's marriage broke out and the word spread fast. The breaking news made the headlines of tabloids and was broadcasted across primetime TV channels all over the world.

The Jin family did not intentionally try to conceal the identity of the bride, An Xiaoning, either.

Netizens soon found out that the bride was actually An Xiaoning, who had caught her ex-husband and his mistress red-handed in front of the supermarket at Bin Jiang Avenue last night. They could not understand how she got so lucky - getting married in the afternoon, right after she filed for a divorce in the morning.

This was especially due to the fact that wealthy families are usually known to abstain from the taboo of selecting daughter-in-laws who were once married. Besides, Jin Qingyan was too much of a great catch to have to marry a divorced woman like An Xiaoning.

It did not make any sense at all.

After getting her hair done at the salon, An Xiaoning overheard the women next to her gossiping about her marriage. A mix of emotions stirred within her.

"Did you hear? Jin Qingyan is getting married!" Woman A exclaimed loudly to Woman B. "The bride is a divorcee who just filed for her divorce this morning. How outrageous!" she continued.

"Do you have a photo of her?"

"Yes, here's a CCTV footage of her exposing her husband last night. Oh my god, look how short she is... Can her waist get any thicker? She must be a plain Jane who looks nothing more than ordinary."

"You're right. Mr. Jin must be blind to have chosen her!"

"Well, she must be really good in bed. Why else would he be attracted to her?"

"Exactly..."

Taking a deep breath, An Xiaoning urged herself to stay still and endure the humiliation just a little longer until all of her sleek, straight hair had been curled.

After making her payment at the cashier, she stormed furiously towards the two women and confronted them, "It's me, An Xiaoning! Excuse you, please have a thorough look at me. Do I have a short stature and a thick waist like you said?"

"Oh, um... Certainly not," answered Woman B, mellowing her tone significantly.

"Thank you," An Xiaoning said with an assertive smile. She left confidently.

Boiling with rage as she exited the salon, she immediately proceeded to buy herself two other sets of expensive and classy clothing. She did not want to be branded as a bride who was as unstylish as a country bumpkin.

With her arms full of shopping bags, An Xiaoning strode quickly towards Jin Qingyan, who had arrived on time at the Civil Administration Bureau and was waiting for her. After placing the shopping bags in his car, she turned to him and asked, "Mr. Jin, how do you like my new hairstyle and outfit?"

Jin Qingyan kept his eyes steadily on An Xiaoning, almost not recognizing her new look.

He already thought she looked pretty and intelligent, exuding a pure and refined demeanor. However, he never knew that she could transform into a ravishing beauty with just a change of outfit and hairstyle, along with some exquisite make up tailored to her features.
