Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 781 - The Day of the Wedding

However, faced with Madame Wu's "sincere outpouring," the woman in the bed remained utterly unmoved!

After so many years, could it be that one still cannot see the true face of a person?

"Ye Mei, I know you must think that this old lady is doing this because she wants you to marry into the Situ Family, that it's all false courtesy, both sycophantic and thieving!"

Madame Wu sat down on a chair and spoke with grave sincerity:

"It takes more than one cold day for the river to freeze three feet deep. It's normal for you to suspect me given my past wrongdoings, I understand! Who made me commit sins in the past?"

As she spoke, Madame Wu's voice grew even more sorrowful:

"But Ye Mei, don't forget one thing, you are, after all, my own granddaughter. Blood is thicker than water; how could I possibly truly wish to harm you?"

"I admit, I do want to arrange a marriage with Yandu's Situ Family. Wouldn't anyone want the same?"

Madame Wu continued, regardless of whether Ye Mei reacted or not:

"However, isn't this also a wonderful matrimonial match for you? Consider letting go of your preconceptions and think about it. How many women wish to enter the doors of the Situ Family but can't?"

"Moreover, the Situ Family's third son is academically successful, competent, and can be considered quite handsome. Even without his family background, he wouldn't be a bad husband at all!"

"There are even rumors that the third son might replace the eldest and become the future heir of the Situ Family. If you don't wish to marry such a man, who would you want to marry?"

"Again, you are my own granddaughter. If it were truly a pit of fire, how could I push you into it? I would rather jump in myself!"

At this point, Madame Wu had begun to sob softly, her words ringing with deep emotion.

It must be said that Madame Wu was clever enough. Most of what she said was the statement of facts, and she was also honest about her past mistakes!

"No matter how much you say, in the end, it's still about marrying me off to the Situ Family so that you can hitch a ride on the Situ Family's big ship."

Only then did Ye Mei show a slight reaction, turning her head and scoffing coldly:

"Madame Wu, you think by lowering your stance, I'll be moved, and then behave as if nothing has happened?"

At this moment, Ye Mei's face was filled with exhaustion, and her complexion lacked any color!

"I know you still harbor deep prejudices, but time will reveal a person's true nature, and you will eventually realize that this old lady wants the best for you!"

Madame Wu, unconcerned by Ye Mei's attitude, sighed deeply and said.

"Indeed, time reveals a person's true nature, and I've certainly seen enough of the Wu Family's!"

Ye Mei's tone remained chillingly cold:

"Madame Wu, you aren't foolish, and I am not stupid either, so spare me your earth-shattering rhetoric. It spares you from saying things against your will, and spares me from feeling nauseous hearing them!"

At this moment, Ye Mei felt deep regret, regretting that she hadn't taken action sooner!

Before she went to Europe, her mother's attitude had gradually softened. She had just been too busy recently!

She had planned to go through with persuading her mother once she returned from Europe, and then take her mother away with her!

She had already thought of the place, a residence within the Phillip Family's domain. She had spoken to the head of the Phillip Family, who had agreed to take in her mother for retirement and had even guaranteed they would take great care of her!

She knew that all this was thanks to Su Chen's face!

She hadn't acted because she had yet to come up with a good place to settle her mother, but now she had finally found an ideal location!

In her opinion, surely the Wu Family wouldn't dare to snatch someone from the Phillip Family's territory?

Forget about the Wu Family; even the Situ Family wouldn't dare!

For her, a single woman, to oppose the Phillip Family and even possibly cause diplomatic disputes would be unwise indeed!

She had it all planned out, but who knew that as soon as she returned from Europe and barely stepped off the plane, she was "invited" by the Wu Family's people!

She had never expected that the Wu Family would press her to marry Situ Guang so soon; she had thought there would be at least until the first half of next year, giving her some time!

At this moment, she knew she had no choice left, as previously they had allowed her mother some freedom, but now they were definitely keeping a tight rein on her mother.

Because they knew that was the most effective way to control her! freewebnøvel.coɱ

In the current situation, even if Su Chen came, she doubted he could rescue her mother!

After all, having been in a position of authority for so many years, the elderly Mrs. Wu showed a flash of annoyance on her withered face upon hearing Ye Mei's blunt and merciless words, but she quickly reined it in!

"Cut the pretense. With my mother in your hands, rest assured, I will marry!"

Ye Mei spat out coldly.

"Ah, Ye Mei, I'm only doing this for your good. You will thank me one day!"

Mrs. Wu again spoke with sincerity.

"Alright, try to eat a little something at least."

Mrs. Wu stood up and said, then walked out.

Then the door was locked once more. Knowing that her mother was in her hands and she dared not escape, but Mrs. Wu still couldn't afford to be careless.

Because any mishap and the Wu Family would have no way to explain it to the Situ Family!

The consequences would be too grave!

....

For the past couple of days, Su Chen's life had been quite normal: work as usual, sleep as usual, "cultivation" as usual, without the slightest worry for Ye Mei's situation.

Time flew by, and before long, it was Friday, two days later!

That day, the Situ Family's home was decorated with lanterns and streamers, big red "happiness" characters posted everywhere, filled with a festive atmosphere!

Everyone in the Situ Family, from top to bottom, was busy as could be, albeit with smiles on their faces.

Early in the morning, a line of dozens of luxury cars was already heading towards the Centrium Hotel in the city center; the Wu Family had been staying there since they arrived in Yandu. Of course, these dozens of luxury cars were off to fetch the bride!

At this moment, the groom, Situ Guang, was seated in the first of the stretch Bentleys. Today he was wearing a hand-tailored black suit, his hair sleek and perfectly styled!

At first glance, he really looked like a fine figure of a man!

At the time, Situ Guang was somewhat nervous. He had been captivated by Ye Mei ever since he first laid eyes on her several years ago!

And today, this woman was finally going to be his!

When he arrived at the Centrium Hotel and went through a series of procedures and finally saw Ye Mei, he was momentarily stunned!

To be honest, Situ Guang had been abroad these past two or three years and hadn't really seen Ye Mei since.

Seeing her again, he found she had grown even more beautiful than before! And even more tasteful!

Her black hair was swept up high, exuding elegance and dignity!

Her brows were delicately drawn, her eyes like blooming peach blossoms, her skin as smooth as creamy jade, and her face a perfect oval!

Most importantly, she exuded a seductive charm from head to toe!

However, this charm was not as flamboyant as that of other women, but more restrained, as if it radiated from within her bones…
