As the alarm went off, Lin Fan finally opened his eyes.
At this moment, Feng Xiaoxiao, who was resting on his arm, also woke up. Her brows were still a bit blurry, but her soft body instinctively burrowed further into his embrace.
Lin Fan picked up his phone to check the time— it was only eight in the morning.
"It’s not early, don’t forget that today is our wedding day. The procession will arrive soon, and even though it’s fake, I still need to get ready."
Feng Xiaoxiao lifted her head and kissed Lin Fan on the face, saying, "Then you go downstairs and wait for the wedding procession."
"I should walk with the procession?"
Lin Fan kneaded Feng Xiaoxiao’s plump breasts, curiously asking.
"Of course, you are the real groom, how can I get married without you walking with the procession?"
Feng Xiaoxiao sat up playfully and said, "When the procession arrives, you find your iron buddy Xia Hongye, she will naturally arrange everything for you. You probably haven’t seen her yet, right? She’s no longer the tomboy with short hair. I guarantee you’ll be surprised."
"I’m already surprised."
Lin Fan muttered to himself, having not only seen Xia Hongye but seen her very thoroughly— he knew not just how long her hair was, but also exactly how long her body hair was.
As time approached, Lin Fan didn’t delay any further. He picked up the toothbrush Feng Xiaoxiao had prepared for him, and the two of them—naked as a couple—washed up together. Naturally, there were hugs and cuddles. Even though time was pressing, Lin Fan still rubbed his "iron pestle" against her perky buttocks a couple of times to quench his thirst.
"Groom, see you in a bit."
After kissing Lin Fan on the face, Feng Xiaoxiao finally sent him out the door. She still needed to hurry to do her makeup and put on her wedding dress, while Lin Fan took the elevator down to the first floor. At this moment, the wedding company had already set up inflatable arches, and the corridor was covered with a red carpet, just waiting for the bridegroom’s procession to arrive.
Lin Fan then sat down in the pavilion on the side, pulled out a cigarette and started smoking, his mind reflecting on his various experiences in Provincial City. Particularly after meeting Chu Shihan yesterday, he had even more considerations about Red Flag County, especially that seemingly jolly Zhao Chuanchun, whose behind-the-scenes actions were probably shocking, attracting attention from the province was naturally normal.
But the problem was, to resolve this hidden danger, why not pull people directly from the province, or take direct action against Zhao Chuanchun? Instead, they sent him, an insignificant pawn, alone into Red Flag County, which was practically a death sentence. Also, who exactly were Da Shuang and Little Shuang working for? Was his transfer ordered by them? All these questions were knotted and complicated, leaving Lin Fan clueless.
"Let’s see what message Qingyi sends tonight."
When Lin Fan finished his third cigarette, the mighty procession arrived, led by a stretch Lincoln, followed by several black cars. Feng Xiaoxiao had said these million-dollar luxury cars were specially arranged by Qiu Qingyi, while the cars behind belonged to the Jiang Family.
Standing in the pavilion, Lin Fan watched Jiang Chun Nian, surrounded by groomsmen. Dressed in a suit and holding flowers today, his smile was somewhat bitter. As a gay man, this marriage was largely about giving his family an explanation. At this moment, he couldn’t dare to compete with Lin Fan.
"Hey, what are you looking at, come over here quickly!"
Just as Lin Fan seemed to be spectating ambiguously by the side of the procession, Xia Hongye’s voice suddenly reached him. Lin Fan, surprised, looked at Xia Hongye, who was now sitting at the driver’s seat of the stretch Lincoln.
"You... aren’t you in... the bridesmaids’ group!"
Lin Fan hurriedly walked over, curiously looking at Xia Hongye holding the steering wheel.
"The bridesmaids don’t need me to drive. How else will you get on the car?"
She gave Lin Fan a look, then opened the side door.
"Me getting on the wedding car... isn’t that a bit much!"
Staring at the cosily decorated compartment, Lin Fan’s eyes widened.
"What else is a groom supposed to ride, get in quickly, everything is arranged."
Urged by Xia Hongye, Lin Fan eventually got on the car. As the rear was a separate compartment, communicating with the driver was only possible through a small window in the middle. So he leaned on the window, looking at Xia Hongye dressed in a red dress: "You knew Feng Xiaoxiao’s arrangement all along, why didn’t you tell me?"
"You didn’t ask, why should I tell you."
Xia Hongye rolled her eyes, looking quite righteous.
"Damn it, Hong Ye, you’re actually playing tricks on me? With our relationship now, and you still keep secrets from me, that’s so heartless!"
Lin Fan wished he could rush over now and strip her clothes off.
"Xiaoxiao and I are half-sisters with different fathers, and you and I are just like ordinary brothers, you’d better understand your distance!"
Xia Hongye snorted, deliberately ignoring Lin Fan.
"Damn it, we’re just ordinary brothers, huh? Fine, just you wait... Next time I won’t leave you crying for daddy, I’ll take your surname..."
Lin Fan smirked, looking like he needed some more time to completely tame this wild horse.
But he wasn’t in a rush; after all, there was still a lot of time ahead.
