Chapter 634: Something Goes Wrong at the Wedding
The wedding preparations were proceeding in an orderly manner.
Li Beijue changed his clothes, then huddled with Li Xiao to confirm security matters.
Li Xiao had already planted quite a few men, and Li Beijue had also deployed security personnel from Li Corporation and Li Mansion.
Today was the most important day for Li Beijue, and they did not want a single slip-up.
The two discussed things carefully once more, then heard a burst of cheerful footsteps suddenly ring out from outside the room.
"Daddy! Do you think I look pretty!"
Tiantian, wearing a princess dress, flew in like a little butterfly and spun around in front of Li Beijue.
"Pretty! Our Tiantian is the prettiest little princess in the world!"
Li Beijue smiled and picked the little girl up, then looked up to see Mobai and Yanbao also walking in, dressed in handsome little suits.
The three of them were going to follow Li Xiao onto the stage in a while, so they had been arranged to change clothes here.
Li Xiao was also in a good mood; he held Yanbao with one hand and Mobai with the other, praising them: "Not bad! Our family's two little handsome guys look quite the part too!"
Upon hearing this, Mobai immediately looked proud: "Of course I'm handsome! Third Great-Uncle is also handsome! But compared to me, he's still a little bit off!"
The little one's innocent words instantly amused everyone in the room, and almost everyone was immersed in the joy that this wedding was about to begin.
……
Half an hour later—the ceremony officially began.
All the guests were seated in the front.
Li Laoyezi sat in the main seat, and seeing Li Beijue standing on the stage in a suit, he couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear.
At the end of the red carpet, Jiang Baobao also walked over with Cai Xiaotang.
The three little ones were standing at the other end with Li Xiao; as soon as they saw Jiang Baobao, they waved at her frantically, their faces full of excitement.
"Baobao, look, Mobai and the others are waving at you..."
Cai Xiaotang whispered a reminder in Jiang Baobao's ear.
Jiang Baobao hurriedly looked over as well, smiling at the three little ones, her face full of unconcealable happiness.
She turned her head to look at the stage, just in time to meet the gaze Li Beijue was casting over.
At this moment, it seemed as if only the two of them remained in each other's eyes.
The music started, and Jiang Baobao walked toward the person on the stage step by step, looking at the hand he was extending toward her, her eyes full of anticipation.
Not far away, Li Xiao also bent down to remind the three little ones beside him: "It will be your turn to go on stage soon, are you nervous?"
"Not nervous!"
The three little ones spoke in unison, drawing the guests sitting nearby to look over and reveal kind smiles.
Li Xiao patted their little heads one by one, then turned his head to look at the stage.
Cai Xiaotang had already walked up while arm-in-arm with Jiang Baobao, then took two steps back to stand with Gu Ruohan.
The two of them were of similar age and were both wearing formal suits and gowns, looking inexplicably pleasing to the eye.
Li Xiao's gaze flickered for a moment, and he suddenly couldn't help but feel a bit sour in his heart again.
Xiao Tang had said before that she wanted to divorce him, but she hadn't mentioned it since; perhaps she wanted to wait until after the wedding was over?
Li Xiao's gaze flickered for a moment, and he suddenly couldn't help but imagine the scene of Cai Xiaotang wearing a wedding dress and standing with another man, which instantly made his heart feel blocked.
"Third Great-Uncle! It's almost our turn!"
Yanbao suddenly tugged at Li Xiao's hand, instantly pulling back his attention.
Li Xiao finally came back to his senses, gave a casual response, and forced himself to forget the scene from just now.
On the stage, Li Beijue was already holding Jiang Baobao's hand and reciting the vows.
Li Xiao braced himself, preparing to lead the three little ones to deliver the rings and the bouquet in a moment.
Meanwhile, in the corner of the changing room—a man stealthily opened the back door and let in a stranger wearing a suit with a camera hanging around his neck.
The wedding had already begun, and everyone had gone to the venue; he had just snuck to the back door to break the surveillance, so the timing to let someone in was perfect.
"Thanks, Wang Ge, I owe it all to you today!"
The stranger thanked the man wearing the waiter uniform.
The waiter called Wang Ge hurriedly whispered: "The higher-ups gave orders that absolutely no one is allowed in today. I've taken a huge risk, so you must be careful. Just blend into the crowd and take some secret shots. Once you get the scoop and hit the headlines, remember to split the money with me..."
"Easy, easy, just rest assured!"
The man promised.
Wang Ge nodded, intending to bring the person in with satisfaction.
But he didn't expect that just as he turned around—a sharp, needle-like pain suddenly struck the back of his neck!
He instantly widened his eyes in disbelief and tried to turn around, but his whole body lost its strength; with a *thud*, he collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth.
In less than a minute, he stopped breathing.
The man gave a cold snort, directly dismantled the camera, and took out a palm-sized small box from inside.
Inside the box, two devices the size of large batteries were arranged neatly.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was coming, he quickly stripped off the man's clothes to change into them, then found his work ID and hung it around his own neck.
After finishing all this, he locked the changing room door from the inside and climbed out through the window he had come from.
At this time, the ceremony was in progress; the man scanned the area, saw someone else wearing a waiter uniform carrying a tray walking from afar, and headed straight toward them.
"Give it to me."
He said to the other person.
The other person truly did not question him and handed the tray directly to him.
The man took the tray and moved toward the crowd without changing his expression.
On both sides of the carpet, there were two huge bouquets of flowers.
He walked toward the flowering tree, stood beside it for a few seconds, and before long, moved away with a natural expression, heading toward another bouquet.
There were many large bouquets placed all around the venue, so he did not attract anyone else's attention.
The man lowered his head to glance at the empty little box in his hand and smiled with satisfaction.
……
Over at Li Xiao's side.
Less than five minutes after the man entered the venue, his people sensed something was wrong.
A man dressed in plain clothes suddenly walked over and leaned in close to his ear.
"Shura, there is a situation."
The man's expression was somewhat serious as he spoke something rapidly.
The next second, Li Xiao's expression changed abruptly, a flash of ruthlessness appearing in the depths of his eyes.
That viper dares to stir up trouble today... does he want to die!
Li Xiao sneered: "Gather all the waiters together right now; we must find that person! Also... try not to alarm the guests..."
Li Xiao looked at the three little ones before him with some hesitation, then said in a low voice: "I will handle this personally."
"Yes."
The subordinate acknowledged the order and left.
Li Xiao crouched down and asked the most steady Yanbao: "Yanbao, how about Third Great-Uncle gives you a mission?"
