Ji Man had seen things going wrong during wedding ceremonies, but never like this. Although she was actually delighted to see Zhu Yurun rushing over to Qian Yingchen's side of the procession, she had to play out the role of someone that was infuriated and horrified that had his bride had been stolen.
Ji Man dismounted from her horse. Before Qian Yingchen had time to react, she had already walked over and shoved him. "Sir Qian, what do you mean by this?"
Her stance looked as if she was about to fight with a hooligan.
Qian Yingchen retreated half a step. His brow was furrowed as he looked Ji Man, "Miss Zhu is doing this of her volition. This has nothing to do with this one. Brother Ji, why are you angry with this one?"
"Fine, then I'll take her away." With her chin raised, Ji Man stretched her hand out and was about to pull Zhu Yurun down.
Of course, Zhu Yurun stubbornly refused to move. Clinging to the side of the sedan chair, she exclaimed as if this was a matter of life and death, "I like this sedan!"
A crowd had gathered to watch this spectacle. Qian Yingchen was on the verge of losing his composure. "Stop messing around!"
"I'm not." Zhu Yurun stretched her head out and said, "You owe me a child! No matter what, it won't end until I get compensation."
There was uproar in the crowd. Miss Zhu's words and actions were really too shocking. Qian Yingchen's face was slightly red, and he somewhat helplessly looked at Ji Man.
Acting as if she was deeply heartbroken, Ji Man asked, "Miss Zhu, are you not willing to marry this one?"
Zhu Yurun bit her lip. The voice that came out from underneath the veil sounded sulky. "Older Brother Man, you're a good person, but I still like him and can't forget about him. I can't marry someone else."
Qian Yingchen was stunned.
"It's okay that this person doesn't like you?" Ji Man raised her eyebrows.
"There are lots of arranged marriages. At least I can marry someone that I like. Isn't that already fortunate enough?" Zhu Yurun lightly pushed the sedan chair and said, "Older brother Man, please support us!"
The gathered people sighed. A lot of people looked at Ji Man sympathetically.
Ji Man let out a long sigh. She looked at Qian Yingchen said, "Today, Sir Qian snatched Miss Zhu from this one's marriage sedan. If you don't cherish her in the future, this one won't let you off even if this one is only a mere commoner!"
Qian Yingchen was at a complete loss. How did it become him snatching her?
"Raise the sedan!" Ji Man shouted. Frightened, the nearby porters shakily followed the command. When the matchmaker saw this sight, for the sake of her bonus later, she hastily urged Qian Yingchen back onto his horse.
"Hey, it's a lucky day, and it's about time anyways. Hurry, let's head over to Qian Residence and complete the wedding ceremony."
With a clamoring sound, the grandiose procession for escorting the bride to the groom's home resumed. They squeezed past the crowd as they headed towards Qian Residence.
Qian Yingchen was blankly riding his horse for a long time. By the time he returned to his senses, they had already arrived at Qian Residence.
After Ji Man happily paid the members of the procession, she returned to her newly purchased home. She ordered a servant to take down the festive decorations, then she changed her clothes and went to Qian Residence to attend the wedding reception.
