Yun Ran was jolted awake.
It felt like she was in a moving sedan chair.
She opened her eyes in a daze, almost blinded by the dazzling red everywhere! Red clothes, red carpet, red sedan curtains, even the ceiling was red...
Yun Ran: ???
Where is she? Where is she going? What is she doing?
She remembered, her third senior brother had finally found the supreme treasure Jiuli Xuan Mirror in Beiming after three years, sent a message back to the sect, so she disguised as a bandit to intercept him halfway, but before she could rob him, a shocking thunder roared above, and a burst of golden light almost blinded her eyes.
Then, there was nothing...
So, was she struck by lightning?
Did she die?
And ended up in a red sedan chair heading to the underworld...
"Land——"
"Inviting the bride to step down from the sedan——"
Suddenly, a high-pitched voice reached her ears, Yun Ran couldn't believe it, bride? Getting married? Her?! To whom???
Then two burly women dressed in gaudy clothes rushed into the sedan, picked up the red veil that had fallen to the ground, and roughly covered Yun Ran's head with it, dragging her out without a word.
If it were any other day, Yun Ran would have sent these old women flying, but her body had been filled with a large amount of Soft Muscle Powder, making her head dizzy and legs weak. She could barely stand, let alone fight.
Yun Ran was dragged all the way to the wedding hall by the two women, like a marionette, she was pressed by the head to bow to heaven and earth and to the parents, and just as the Ceremony Officer announced 'spouse bow to each other', Yun Ran heard a...
"Woof——"
That's right! It was a dog's bark!
Yun Ran could tell from the sound that the dog was just half a step in front of her.
That position should be...
Was she going to marry a dog?!
"Why are you dawdling? Hurry and bow!"
One woman impatiently pressed Yun Ran's head, and Yun Ran tilted her head sideways, causing the red veil to slip off, allowing her to clearly see the opposite...a particularly beautiful dog!
Its snow-white fur had not a single blemish, with a faint sheen, Yun Ran really wanted to touch it, and those eyes, as blue as a lake, were extremely beautiful.
It looked a bit like a fox, and a bit like a snow wolf, it was simply a superior dog!
The dog was held by a gentle-looking young man, with an arrogant posture, squinting at Yun Ran as if saying: Mr. Dog has arrived, hurry and bow!
Yun Ran rolled her eyes at it: Keep looking, and I'll make you into soup!
Besides, the person she was supposed to marry, Prince Qin Nangong Mo, actually had a dog marry a girl in the ceremony? Is this something a human would do?
Yun Ran narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, her gaze coldly sweeping over everyone in the hall, half smiling, "Wasn't Prince Qin supposed to marry me? Where is he? Has he turned into a dog?"
The crowd fell into a moment of dead silence, eerily quiet!
The wedding concierge was the first to come to her senses, giving Yun Ran a fierce glare, "Pah pah pah! What nonsense are you spouting? The Prince is fine, you're the one turning into a dog! Do not disrespect Prince Qin!"
The Prince's mansion's steward stepped forward to explain, "Princess, please do not blame! Today, our Prince suddenly suffered an old ailment and fainted, making it impossible to bow for the ceremony. However, auspicious times cannot be delayed, so we had no choice but to resort to this last-minute plan, hoping the Princess can understand."
Lord Dog fainted? Really?
"Understanding, of course, I understand, but..." Changing her tone, Yun Ran pointed at the dog held by the young man with a chilly smile on her lips, "Afterward, can this dog be made into soup?"
The dog: "Woof——" Are you polite?
The steward wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Princess, I'm afraid that is inappropriate."
The wedding concierge immediately shot Yun Ran a fierce look, "You still want to drink dog soup? You still want to drink dog soup? Is that an ordinary dog? Hm? That dog is... more precious than you!"
Yun Ran lazily interrupted her, "Oh right, it's not an ordinary dog, it's Prince Qin..."
"What did you say?"
The wedding concierge's eyes widened in anger, about to scold Yun Ran, when she directly collapsed unconscious.
The crowd was instantly in an uproar, everyone looking towards the steward.
"This... what to do?"
In a wedding where the groom fainted and didn't show up, and the bride also fainted halfway through the ceremony, how could this marriage be completed...
The steward raised his hand to rub the corner of his eye, waved to the Ceremony Officer, who promptly called out: "The wedding is complete, send them to the bridal chamber——"
...
Tingfeng Garden.
The effects of the Soft Muscle Powder had not yet worn off, Yun Ran couldn't do anything, so she lay on the bed, organizing the memories in her mind.
Lin Wanyue, seventeen years old, lost her mother early, her stepmother is vicious, her deadbeat father ignores her, her stepsisters bully her in every possible way, bearing the name of the eldest Miss of the Minister Mansion, but in reality, her life is worse than a dog's.
