So You’re Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 476

The emcee wanted to curse. He was very happy for Li Shaobin’s wedding. After all, to be able to get chosen by the Li Family to be the emcee was an honor. However, he was regretting it now. Why was he so unlucky? He had hosted various weddings but had never encountered something like this.
He cleared his throat and tried his best to sound calm. “Because of the delay just now, several minutes have already passed. In case we miss the auspicious timing, let’s skip this part and move on to the part that we’re all waiting for. May I ask our groom: are you willing to marry Miss Ruan Yang to be your wedded bride, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?”
Li Shaobin calmed down and squeezed out a smile on his stiff face. “I do.”
The emcee heaved a sigh of relief. “May I ask our bride: are you willing to marry Mr. Li Shaobin to be your wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?”
“I do,” Ruan Yang said softly.
“Alright, you may now exchange your wedding rings to prove your faithful and never-changing love for each other. Let the bridesmaid and best man present the rings,” the emcee said.
After they exchanged their wedding rings, Li Shaobin gave Ruan Yang a kiss with trembling lips with the veil between them. Although he could already imagine what the guests must be feeling as they watched this, she had finally become his wife.
…
When the ceremony ended, the lunch course started and the guests were having their meal. Li Shaobin helped Ruan Yang to the waiting room. He was walking very quickly but Ruan Yang could only walk slowly and towards the end, Ruan Yang even almost fell.
Guan Ying reminded him, “Slow down.”
Li Shaobin felt as though he had woken up from a dream. He suddenly realized that Ruan Yang’s hand was very cold and she was also swaying from side to side.
He felt a hint of guilt. Although he was very angry right now, this had nothing to do with her. He knew everything about her clearly a long time ago. He had also seen such pictures before. It was just that when those pictures appeared at their wedding ceremony, he was embarrassed after all. However, he didn’t blame her. He could only blame the person behind this. Besides, Ruan Yang might not be feeling any better than he was.
“Yangyang, it’s all my fault for being too careless.” Li Shaobin bent down and carried her into the waiting room.
Yan Molun wanted to follow them in but Guan Ying stopped him. “Let them have a chat first.”
Yan Molun was stunned for a while but quickly understood. He reached out to block the people behind him and helped them to close the door to the waiting room.
Ruan Yang was carried in by him and placed on the couch. He lifted her veil and Li Shaobin saw that even the makeup couldn’t hide the paleness of her gorgeous face.
He thought it was because of what happened and felt even more guilty. “Yangyang, I…”
“I’m sorry. Shaobin, I still embarrassed you,” Ruan Yang said softly as she lowered her gaze.
This wedding ceremony might’ve been extravagant and grand but those who attended would probably return with mockery.
The Li Family was such an awe-inspiring family but they were embarrassed because of her.
“This is none of your business. Didn’t I tell you that I got someone to stalk you and Xin Ziao before? I knew all about this already…” Li Shaobin sighed softly. Except when he saw Ruan Yang and Xin Ziao smiling so happily and sweetly together in the photos, he felt a blunt pain pulsing inside.
He didn’t seem to remember Ruan Yang smiling so sweetly very often when she was with him.
She also wasn’t very willing to take photos with him.
However, she had so many sweet memories with Xin Ziao.
Aye. He couldn’t let his thoughts run wild. Today was their wedding day. This might’ve just been part of Xin Ziao’s schemes. “I was too careless; I actually let someone smuggle this into the wedding. Yangyang, don’t think too much. Go change into the Chinese wedding gown first and we’ll go out to offer our toast, alright? The guests are still waiting for us outside. If we don’t go out, they might think we’re having a fight. Isn’t it just a few photos? What’s the big deal? I, Li Shaobin, have already been prepared to be gossiped about since I wanted to marry you. Besides, I have a very thick skin. I don’t care what people say.”
“Shaobin…” Ruan Yang’s eyes welled up with tears.
She knew that he must be feeling terrible inside, but he was still trying his best to comfort her. What kind of good karma must she have accumulated in her previous life to have someone embrace and love her so much?
“Aiya, why are you crying? I couldn’t tell that you were such a crybaby int the past.” Li Shaobin wiped away a tear at the corner of her eye. “Don’t cry. I’ll call the stylist over to help you change.”
“Mm.” Ruan Yang nodded. She forced herself to stop crying and smiled. “You should get changed too.”
Li Shaobin kissed her forehead and left.
It didn’t take much time to change into a mandarin jacket. When Li Shaobin came out after changing, Ruan Yang wasn’t done changing yet and she still had to touch up her makeup after changing.
He said a few words to the stylist and left the waiting room. The moment he walked out of the room, his gentle face immediately became malevolent and frightening.
———————————-
In a room on the second floor of the hotel, the curtains were drawn and the lights were on. The wedding planner, Manager Zhong, and the manager of the hotel, Manager Ma, were kneeling with fear on the ground. There were seven to eight burly men in black standing by the side. The two only lifted their heads slightly to take a few glances and couldn’t stop their legs from trembling as they begged for forgiveness. “Brother Hu, I really didn’t know about this. I wouldn’t have dared to embarrass Boss Li so much even if you gave me the guts. Not unless I was tired of living.”
“You’re just f*cking tired of living.” Hu Zhi kicked Manager Zhong in the chest and slapped Manager Ma. “You’re in charge of coordinating the jobs and you’re the manager of the hotel. You two are in charge of the entire flow of events. Who am I supposed to blame if not you? You want to earn the money but when something happens, you don’t know who’s responsible? Then don’t even think of leaving this room without a beating.”
Just then, the door was opened. Li Shaobin walked in wearing his yellow mandarin jacket. The dragons embroidered on his collar were very life-like and he looked distinguished and elegant. His face should’ve been joyous at this moment but right now, it was expressionless.
Li Shaobin was rarely expressionless. He was usually grinning, furious, or disdainful. The moment he was expressionless meant he was already furious to the extreme.
Hu Zhi shuddered. Manager Zhong kept kowtowing with all his might in fear. “Boss Li, I gave your SD card personally to Manager Ma back then. Manager Ma said that he would make sure it was carried out well. This has nothing to do with me.”
Manager Ma’s face was deathly white. “I got Zheng Qianjie from the hotel to screen it afterward.”
“Where is Zheng Qianjie? Bring him over.” Li Shaobin turned over to look at Hu Zhi.
Manager Ma suddenly stared wide-eyed. He said after gulping, “I think he might’ve run away. I don’t think I’ve seen him since the wedding started.”
“Run away?” Li Shaobin scoffed. “In Northern City, even if he can run out of my reach, I can still dig out his relatives and ancestral grave.”
Manager Ma took a deep breath.
…
10 minutes later, Hu Zhi rushed in and said, “We can’t find Zheng Qianjie anywhere. We asked the security officer and he said that when the wedding just started, Zheng Qianjie said he was going out to buy something for the wedding and he hasn’t been back since.”
“It’s just been a little over 40 minutes. I doubt he could’ve run very far away. Get him back in one day.” Li Shaobin turned around to look at Manager Zhong and Manager Ma who were crouching on the floor. He picked up a chair at the side and threw it at them. “You useless things. After all, it’s because you used the wrong person to do the job. Don’t ever think of finding a job in this industry ever again.”
Manager Zhong and Manager Ma’s heads were bleeding from being hit by the chair. They exchanged glances and shuddered. When a wedding with the Li Family went well, it meant boundless glory, but when something bad happened, trouble would come crashing.
“Clean this place up. I still have to go out to offer my toast.” Li Shaobin straightened his mandarin jacket and went back to the waiting room.
Ruan Yang was already changed into her Chinese-style wedding gown. The bright red wedding gown was created using Suzhou embroidery. It was made stitch-by-stitch by Suzhou’s best embroider, who was specifically requested by Li Shaobin a month ago. A phoenix with its wings spread was embroidered with multi-colored silk and the gown wrapped around Ruan Yang’s body perfectly to show her curves. She had a slim waist and every movement was filled with elegance which made her look stunning and ravishing.
Li Shaobin gazed deeply at her and his troubled heart seemed to calm down significantly.
Ruan Yang also looked at him. She didn’t ask him where he went—she could guess too. He wouldn’t let matters rest after something like that happened.
When they walked into the hall, they offered their toasts with smiles. The guests were also full of smiles, as though nothing had happened.
After lunch, it was the cake-cutting ceremony.
A hotel staff member wheeled out a nine-tier cake.
Ruan Yang had a few mouthfuls of cake as she sat in a chair that she had finally found with much effort, finally able to take a breather. Changqing then walked over with Yan Wo in her arms. She asked worriedly, “Ruan Yang, are you alright?”
Ruan Yang shook her head weakly. She wanted to reach out to hold Yan Wo but felt like she was out of energy.
Changqing looked at her. She knew better than anyone when Ruan Yang was putting on a forced smile. This wedding ceremony, which was supposed to paint a happy marriage, was still tainted by a spot of black ink.
Ruan Yang seemed to know what she was thinking about. After a while, she lowered her head and said softly, “If Xin Ziao was behind this, I can only say that he’s achieved his motive.”
