The Flying Star City was still the same as before. It was still the dreamy city in the fairytale world.
No. 6 in the western suburbs was still the same three-story exquisite villa. It was located on a small hill full of flowers. Standing in the courtyard of the villa and looking into the distance, there was an endless ocean in front of them. It was as blue as a beautiful gemstone.
A bright red carpet had been laid out on the lush green grass, and a long-legged girl was sitting on an elegant white bench. Her appearance was outstanding, and her hair was tied up high into a cloud-like bun, which made her oval face even more charming and moving. Moreover, she was wearing a pure white and sacred wedding dress. Under the shade of the peach blossoms and the color of the sea and sky, there was an indescribable breathtaking beauty.
However, the girl's face was very pale, as if she was enduring some kind of pain. Although there was heavy makeup between her eyebrows, there was still a trace of haggardness. At least, the blood vessels in her eyes had not completely disappeared. Most importantly, she was too cold. It was not the coldness in her temperament, but a kind of unhappiness in her face. This person was Dai Yi.
On the green grass by the hillside, the servants were busy. Dai Yi was lost in thought as she looked at the busy crowd.
She was not alone. On such a good day, her best friends Eirinn and Xu Qianqian had been accompanying her. However, looking at the expressions of the two, there was not a trace of joy on their faces.
Regarding this marriage, Eirinn and Xu Qianqian stood on the side of their best friends. They were not just a little bit disgusted with the Bai Family, but there was nothing they could do.
Dai Yi was lost in thought as she looked at the sea. Xu Mengqing did not guess wrong. Dai Yi first fell in love with Ding Meng here. At that time, Ding Meng killed Huang Long and carried her as he swung his sword. The place was still the same, but the person was not the same person.
At this time, a man in a suit walked over from the courtyard of the villa. The man's appearance and figure were very ordinary. If it was not for the expensive suit and shiny leather shoes, this person could really be described as ugly.
Not only was he ugly, but he also looked very wretched. His eyes were always squinting. This person was the founder of the Yuan Da Group, Bai Qingyun.
"Wife!" Bai Qingyun walked over with a smile.
In fact, he and Dai Yi weren't just classmates during the Starlight Era. Moreover, the relationship between the two families wasn't bad. They also had dealings with each other in Blue Pole Star City. It was just that their friendship wasn't deep. After all, the Dai Family and the Bai Family weren't on the same level.
When Ding Meng stood out in the Starlight exam, almost everyone thought that a genius was born. As Dai Yi's boyfriend, the future of the Dai family was also promising. Who knew that the MV Expedition would rush into the wormhole, and Ding Meng would never return. Bai Qingyun's mind became active again.
He had been drooling over Dai Yi's beauty for a long time, so he quickly launched a fierce pursuit. Unfortunately, Dai Yi didn't even look him in the eye. She rejected him again and again. After being rejected so many times, he became angry and officially found someone to propose marriage to the Dai family.
The situation on the Dai Family's side wasn't optimistic. Dai Ranjun was at the critical moment of her promotion, and the Dai Family's main industry was tourism related hotels, restaurants, entertainment, and other tertiary industries. If they hadn't maintained contact with the Bai Family all these years, the two sides would definitely be competitors.
If the Dai Family rejected, it wouldn't be a simple loss. It would hurt their foundation. However, if they agreed, not only would they advance by leaps and bounds, but they could also connect with the Starlight Corporation. As long as Dai Yi's grandfather, Dai Mingrong, wasn't an idiot, he should know what to choose.
However, Dai Yi herself wasn't happy. Especially when she heard this title, she was even more annoyed. Her face was cold and she didn't even care about Bai Qingyun.
In the years that Ding Meng had left, not only did Dai Yi's cultivation not stop, her speed was even astonishing. Half a year ago, she had already become a high-level Combat Master. The Dai family was probably afraid that she would stubbornly resist, so not only did they continue to persuade her day and night, Dai Yi's big brother, Dai Yue, had even injected quite a few source bodies into her, afraid that she would carelessly make a move and ruin their plans. Therefore, Dai Yi's expression was not very good. Not only had she not recovered her strength, she was also enduring intense pain.
Yao Manrou's position among Dai Ranjun's wives wasn't high, and after the Bai Family proposed marriage, the research institute was closed down, leaving behind an apprentice, Ding Wenhe, to guard it. Moreover, he was the kind of guard who didn't have a single cent, while Yao Manrou herself was placed under house arrest. As for when she would be released, that would depend on Dai Yi's performance.
"Wife, the guests are all here. It's almost time. It's already 14: 50, and we have to enter in half an hour." Bai Qingyun reminded.
Dai Yi still had a cold face and didn't reply. Eirinn helplessly said, "Bai Qingyun, go and greet the guests first. We still have to do Xiao Yi's hair."
Bai Qingyun smiled and swept his gaze over Dai Yi's body. Dai Yi's biggest advantage over other women was her pair of white and long legs. Every time he saw these legs, Bai Qingyun would feel a certain part of his body uncontrollably change, and the heat in his heart would rush straight to his head. This was also the reason why he had always liked Dai Yi.
Today was the day of the engagement ceremony. Once the ceremony was over, she would naturally become his second wife. He had made up his mind that he would spend the night in the villa in the Flying Star City. He would rub her long legs against him at least seven times.
Thinking about that, Bai Qingyun was so excited that he rubbed his hands together. His first wife wasn't bad either, but she was the eldest granddaughter of another family. She only married him for the sake of benefits, but after marriage, she was too cold in a certain aspect and couldn't satisfy him at all. His goal was to conquer a goddess-like beauty like Dai Yi …
He was still fantasizing when a servant carrying a tray bumped into him. The tray immediately fell, and the exquisite drinks scattered all over the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Young Master Bai!" The maid was frightened and quickly bowed her head to apologize.
If it was any other time, with Bai Qingyun's temper, he would have directly kicked him away. Did he not look where he was going?
However, since Dai Yi was present, he naturally had to maintain a good demeanor. "Forget it, just be careful in the future. Why did you bring these things over?
We're about to enter. "
The maid squatted on the ground and carefully tidied up the drinks. "I brought some drinks over."
These drinks were calming tea, a specialty of the Zhifan family. When Dai Yi first came to Flying Star City, Ding Meng, that country bumpkin, drank dozens of bottles of calming tea in one go. At first, Dai Yi was somewhat disdainful, but later, she felt that Ding Meng was very cute. Now, seeing the familiar packaging, Dai Yi's heart was filled with endless nostalgia and sadness.
Bai Qingyun frowned and said, "The ceremony is about to begin. Aren't you causing trouble?"
The maid didn't dare to raise her head at all. "Then I'll bring them back?"
At this time, Dai Yi said, "Bring them over. I'm a little thirsty."
Bai Qingyun immediately smiled and changed his words. "Okay, okay, okay. My wife has the final say. I'll listen to everything you say."
If someone who didn't know saw this scene, they would think that this couple was very loving.
The maid moved skillfully and placed the calming tea on the small table one by one. Looking at her attentive look, Dai Yi was somewhat curious. "Hello!"
The maid was well-trained. She immediately stood aside and bowed her head respectfully. "What can I do for you, Miss Dai?"
Dai Yi frowned slightly. "I feel that you look very familiar. It's as if I've seen you somewhere before, but I can't remember where."
The maid lowered her head even more. "Miss Dai, I've been working in Flying Star City. My duty is to maintain the normal use of the villa area in the western suburbs."
Dai Yi said, "What's your name?"
If there were experts present at this moment, they would definitely notice the unknown coldness in the maid's eyes. "Miss Dai, my name is Le Fei."
"Oh!
I see! "
Dai Yi's expression didn't seem to change. Obviously, she hadn't remembered this person. "Go do your work!"
Le Fei left respectfully. Eirinn and Xu Qianqian began to touch up Dai Yi's makeup again.
To the Bai Clan and Dai Clan, today was a joyous occasion. However, to Dai Yi and the other two, this was not a good day. It was simply an execution ground. Therefore, after Bai Qingyun and Le Fei left, the three of them sank into a gloomy and oppressive atmosphere.
Eirinn really wanted to say something to comfort the two sisters, but she didn't know what to say many times. At this moment, any words would seem pale and powerless.
Suddenly, Xu Qianqian spoke in surprise. "Why is there an extra necklace?
Sister Lin, is this yours? "
Eirinn turned her head and saw Xu Qianqian pick up a strange necklace from the grass. The necklace's chain was made of ordinary material, but it was tied to a small dark gold blade. The blade was in the shape of a crescent moon and had a twisted arc. It looked strange, cold, and mysterious.
"How can this be a girl's necklace?" Eirinn took the necklace. "Huh?
There are words on it?
Let me see. What fortune is there in gathering? What sorrow is there in parting? What joy is there in life? What bitterness is there in death? I think it's a poem … "
These few words immediately pulled Dai Yi back to reality from her thoughts. She snatched the necklace almost immediately. After carefully examining it, her breathing immediately quickened, and her chest rose and fell violently.
This wasn't a necklace at all. It was Ding Meng's "Hero's Knife". She was confident that she wasn't mistaken.
Dai Yi suddenly remembered that before Ding Meng left, he had specially passed the Hero's Knife to Meng Yan. This knife actually appeared here. Could it be that Meng Yan had come?
She immediately reacted. Wasn't that maid's name Le Fei?
The maid that Meng Yan had disguised herself as was also called Le Fei. Could it be that Meng Yan had already snuck into this place and left the knife here under the pretext of delivering drinks?
However, this wasn't the most important point. When Dai Yi had confessed to Ding Meng, she had said that the knife could be made into a necklace. Other than herself and Ding Meng, there was absolutely no third person who knew about this. Now, the knife had really been made into a necklace, and it was even personally delivered by Meng Yan. The only person who could have ordered Meng Yan to take such a risk was Ding Meng.
Suddenly, Dai Yi felt her heart beating faster than ever before. She had a strong intuition that Ding Meng was back!
"Xiao Yi, what's wrong?" Eirinn obviously sensed the great change in Dai Yi's mood.
Dai Yi stood up abruptly, and her whole body seemed to glow in an instant. "Come, let's go!"
"Go?
Go where? "Eirinn and Xu Qianqian were puzzled.
Dai Yi's expression was very confident. "Of course, we're going to the T stage in the courtyard to prepare for the ceremony."
Eirinn and Xu Qianqian were stunned. What was going on? Was Dai Yi so shocked that she lost her mind?
Why did her attitude change so quickly?
