Chapter 44: Being Called Away on the Wedding Night
"Yaoyao, I feel so happy today. I finally married you." Gu Huai stared at Lu Yaoyao's face, which was particularly beautiful tonight, and said with tenderness and happiness on his face.
Miss Lu did not respond, but just looked at him with a faint smile.
Maybe the next moment, she would disappear from his sight.
She called the system softly, "Gu Huai's love for me has reached its peak at this moment, right? I should have succeeded in conquering him."
But there was no response from the system for a long time.
Lu Yaoyao didn’t know what was wrong with the system and hadn’t been able to get in touch with it recently.
She could only delay time, "Let's drink to each other's cup first!"
"Okay, I'll hold your hand." Gu Huai held her hand, interlocking their fingers, wishing he would never let go.
The two of them walked slowly to the table. Gu Huai held the jade pot and poured the wedding wine into two cups.
He handed one of the glasses of wine to Lu Yaoyao.
Lu Yaoyao reached out to take it, and the two of them held hands and were about to drink the wedding wine when the door of the bridal chamber was suddenly kicked open.
What followed was a chaotic noise of people outside the door.
Then, footsteps came in.
"What's going on?" Gu Huai, who has always been generous, easy-going and doesn't like to argue with others, frowned.
He didn't want his wedding night to be disturbed or ruined.
This is the most important day in his life.
The leader said urgently, "General Gu, the emperor has issued an urgent decree, summoning you to the palace immediately."
"What? What happened on my wedding night?" Gu Huai's brows darkened.
"General Gu, please."
Gu Huai and Lu Yaoyao's eyes met, and there was a deep reluctance and attachment in Gu Huai's eyes.
Lu Yaoyao thought that this was a good excuse to get away and not spend the wedding night together.
"Ahuai, go ahead. The Emperor has issued an urgent decree. His orders are above all else. I will wait here for you to return."
"Okay." Gu Huai gritted his teeth and agreed.
He said in an uneasy, almost worried voice, "No matter what happens, you must wait for me to come back."
He suddenly felt his eyelids twitching violently, and had a feeling that something bad was going to happen.
He wanted to stop it, but he was powerless.
Gu Huai left in a hurry surrounded by her attendants. Gu's mother came in and comforted her. But judging from the urgency of the imperial order, something serious must have happened, otherwise the emperor would not have called him away on the night of Gu Huai's wedding. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were not in the mood to chat.
After Gu's mother left, Lu Yaoyao was upset and wanted to be alone, so she dismissed the servants. Soon, Lu Yaoyao was the only one left in the new house.
At this moment, she felt both relieved and relaxed at not having to spend the bridal chamber, but also inexplicably worried about Gu Huai.
I don’t know what happened.
The flickering candlelight in the new house illuminated Lu Yaoyao's lonely figure.
She sighed softly and was about to get up to close the window when she heard a slight noise outside the door.
Lu Yaoyao was shocked. Could it be that Gu Huai came back?
She walked quickly to the door, but before she could see who was coming, a man in black flashed into the room and stabbed her in the chest when she was completely defenseless.
Lu Yaoyao felt a pain in her chest, and warm blood quickly soaked her clothes. She staggered a few steps and almost fell.
The man in black moved skillfully and clearly intended to kill her.
She endured the severe pain and looked at the man in black with sharp eyes. She soon recognized that he was the one who sneaked into her boudoir and assassinated her last time.
This guy is so persistent that he even followed him to the Gu family.
Something unexpected happened tonight and the defense was not so tight, so he took advantage of the chaos to come in and kill her.
The first stab failed to kill Lu Yaoyao, so the man in black swung the knife at Lu Yaoyao again.
Lu Yaoyao had been stabbed and her movements became slow. She was unable to dodge and her left arm was cut, with blood flowing out.
She knew that she was no match for the man in black at the moment, and that fighting head-on would only cost her life.
Quickly look around for items you can use to defend yourself.
Her eyes fell on the candlestick on the table, and she suddenly had an idea. She rushed forward, grabbed the candlestick and threw it at the man in black.
The wax dripped onto him and instantly caught fire.
This unexpected change caused him to temporarily pause his offensive.
Lu Yaoyao took the opportunity to rush to the door, wanting to escape and call for help.
However, the man in black was extremely fast. After putting out the sparks on his body, he instantly stood in front of her, with the sharp blade in his hand flashing with a cold light.
"I won't let you get away so easily this time!" The man in black sneered and swung his knife again.
In the blink of an eye, a white figure fell from the sky.
It's a breeze.
He was dressed in white, with a graceful figure, like a banished immortal, and the long sword in his hand shone coldly in the moonlight.
Lu Yaoyao's face immediately glowed with a light as if she had been reborn, "Qingfeng, save me!"
Qingfeng nodded slightly, then looked at the man in black with cold eyes, as if he was looking at a dead person.
He didn't waste any time and attacked directly.
The fierce sword skills are dazzling.
The fight between Qingfeng and the man in black was extremely fierce, with sword lights and knife shadows intertwined, and the sound of metal collision was crisp and harsh.
Lu Yaoyao leaned against the door, covering her wound, and watched this life-and-death struggle nervously.
Every time Qingfeng's sword tip narrowly avoided the attack of the man in black, her heart would hang in the air, and then relax a little when Qingfeng counterattacked.
Fortunately, the sound of fighting quickly attracted the guards in the Gu family mansion.
They rushed over upon hearing the noise and surrounded the men in black. Their torches made the night as bright as day.
The man in black looked coldly at the guards surrounding him, knowing that he could not kill Lu Yaoyao under their noses. He tiptoed over the wall.
Qingfeng chased after her, but stopped when Gu's mother screamed "Yaoyao".
He returned to Lu Yaoyao's side. Mother Gu knew him and asked in surprise, "Master Qingfeng, why are you here?"
This is the Gu family. He appeared here inexplicably, and he really needs a convincing reason.
What's more, tonight is Gu Huai and Lu Yaoyao's wedding night.
He couldn't let others doubt Lu Yaoyao's loyalty to Gu Huai, so as not to damage her reputation.
Qingfeng explained, "Because Miss Lu was assassinated last time, the Crown Prince specifically ordered me to stay in the capital to continue tracking down the assassin before he went to the Dian River to control the flood. However, after tracking for many days, there was no progress. I could only stay by Miss Lu's side, watching to see if the assassin would appear again to harm her. Unexpectedly, I ran into him."
Mother Gu nodded, ordered someone to carry the unconscious Lu Yaoyao back to the room, and then ordered the servant to call a doctor to treat Lu Yaoyao.
The doctor came hurriedly, carefully examined Lu Yaoyao's wound, and began to treat it.
Mother Gu anxiously asked about the injury, "Doctor, is my daughter-in-law okay?"
The doctor comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam. Although Miss Lu is injured and the wound is deep, her life is not in danger."
"That's good."
Mother Gu breathed a sigh of relief. The bride had just married into the family. If something happened in her family, she really didn't know how to explain it, especially to her youngest son who loved Lu Yaoyao to bits.
