Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Backed by My Husband

Qin Xiao chuckled lightly and said, "Hmm, I know, I originally thought I'd be stood up today."

Hearing Xiao Li say she wanted to run away from the wedding, Qin Xiao wasn't surprised. Knowing her well, running away from a wedding was her usual move.

If there was any surprise, it was about Xiao Li's attitude today.

Just yesterday, she seemed to loathe him to death, so why was she suddenly so close today, so close that it felt unreal...

Qin Xiao wasn't surprised, but the driver in front was shocked to death. What kind of operation was this?

He was driving the wedding car! But the main characters of the wedding: one wanted to run away, and the other thought he'd be stood up at the wedding...

So shocked that the driver's hands wavered on the steering wheel, causing the car to wobble a bit...

Qin Xiao felt the car's instability, gave a chilly glance to the front, and the driver, seeing this in the rearview mirror, immediately understood and raised the partition in the car...

Xiao Li raised an eyebrow as the partition was raised, "If I really ran away, wouldn't you be angry?"

Qin Xiao laughed, "Not angry, didn't I say wherever you run, I'd chase you to wherever?"

As Qin Xiao spoke, he raised his eyes and looked seriously at Xiao Li.

When Qin Xiao looked at her like that, Xiao Li saw once again the deep affection she had seen in his eyes in her past life before her death...

Silently calming her fluctuating emotions, Xiao Li laughed, "So do you know why I didn't run away?"

Qin Xiao laughed softly, "Because I'm handsome?"

Xiao Li burst out laughing, "Yes, because you're so handsome that I fell in love with you at first sight."

Qin Xiao nodded, "I got it. From now on, there won't be any opposite sex around you who even remotely looks good."

Xiao Li clasped her mouth and laughed, then said, "What about you? Did you take a liking to me because I'm beautiful?"

Qin Xiao thought seriously, "Hmm... it's really possible..."

Xiao Li laughed even more joyfully, and after a while of laughter, she said seriously, "The biggest reason I didn't run away from the wedding is because I genuinely want to marry you.

The second reason is that my dear cousin, who kept saying she'd help me escape through the window, secretly placed iron sheets and shards of glass outside my window last night, and was eagerly waiting downstairs for me to jump...

After I found out, I didn't jump."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao's aura turned cold, with flashes of cold light crossing his eyes...

"If that's the case, I should properly thank my cousin. Without her, I'd have to start the journey of chasing my wife today."

Xiao Li nodded, "Yes, make sure to thank her properly!"

When she said the word 'thank,' Xiao Li's tone changed.

Qin Xiao smiled, "Don't worry, I'll prepare a generous gift, you don't need to worry about it..."

Hearing this, a hint of amusement passed through Xiao Li's eyes.

It's really nice to have a husband backing you up...

As the saying goes, the child who cries gets the candy, and the girl who complains should be cared for by her husband.

As for what grand gift Qin Xiao would give to Xiao Yan? Xiao Li wasn't concerned...

Although the identity Qin Xiao showed to others was that of a university professor, Xiao Li knew this was just one of his identities.

In her past life, he made the whole family of the eldest uncle pay the price, which wasn't something a university professor could have the power to do, so he mustn't be as simple as he appeared...

The wedding car smoothly stopped at the hotel entrance, Qin Xiao got out first and then helped Xiao Li out.

Inside the hotel's lounge, Xiao Li saw Xiao Yan again; it's really too much that she showed up.

After everything that happened, Xiao Li thought she wouldn't attend the wedding, but here she was.

Xiao Yan hurriedly approached Xiao Li, "Xiao Li, I just took a round in the lobby, and I found that not a single person from the Qin Family came.

Today is the day you marry into their family, and there's not a single person from the Qin Family here. Don't they value you?"

As Xiao Yan spoke, her eyes shone brightly at Xiao Li, the intent to sabotage was as clear as day.

But she only stayed excited for a while before losing her excitement, because she realized Xiao Li wasn't even listening to her.

At this moment, Xiao Li was resting her eyes. She didn't sleep well last night and needed to recharge for the red carpet walk...

As for what Xiao Yan just said, she had known about it, Qin Xiao explained it during the car ride over.

Qin's father and mother went abroad for a trip and turned off their phones once they left, making it hard for Qin Xiao to contact them.

He could only leave a message in their email, but there hasn't been a reply yet.

As for Qin Xiao's eldest brother, he's still in the country, but this wedding date was only set last night, so he's on his way here and should be arriving soon.

Actually, there are many people who didn't come to this wedding, because both Xiao Li and Qin Xiao only found out yesterday that they were getting married today.

Xiao Li found out when she was home for vacation, and on Qin Xiao's side, Xiao Zhennan knew when Xiao Li would be back and specifically asked Qin Xiao to come over on that day.

Then the three of them had dinner together, and at the table, Xiao Zhennan set the marriage, and the wedding arrangements were made.

With a wedding organized under those circumstances, can a lot of people really come?

It's normal that people couldn't make it!

While Xiao Li was resting, Xiao Zhennan pushed the door open and came in, Xiao Li opened her eyes, "Dad."

Xiao Zhennan smiled, "Let's go! Daddy is taking you to the starting point of the next chapter of your life."

Xiao Li smiled, stood up, took Xiao Zhennan's arm, and followed him out of the lounge.

In the hall, the emcee was presiding over the wedding, Xiao Li stood by with Xiao Zhennan at the entrance, and step by step followed the emcee's lead towards Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao took Xiao Li's hand from Xiao Zhennan, the two of them stood together, vowed in front of all the family and friends present, exchanged rings, and kissed.

After the ceremony, it was time for the wedding banquet toast. During toasting, Xiao Li saw the just-arrived brother of Qin Xiao - Qin Tan.

Qin Tan was in a suit, with glasses with golden frames, exuding a scholarly air, at first glance it felt like he was not Qin Xiao's older brother, but his younger brother,

Qin Tan hoisted a wine glass and spoke to Xiao Li, "Sister-in-law, big brother arrived late and missed your earlier ceremony, big brother here offers a cup of wine in apology first."

Saying that, he downed the drink in his cup.

Xiao Li laughed, "Big Brother, it should be us at fault, the wedding was arranged too hastily, we didn't give everyone time to prepare..."

Qin Tan quickly waved his hand, "No hurry, really no hurry, we don't need to prepare, this is perfect, perfect..."

Qin Xiao this kid finally agreed to get married, what's there to prepare? Hurry up and get it done while the iron's hot, if we prepare, we might even over-prepare and miss the chance.

This way, no preparations needed is the best!
