His Genius Wife Is A Superstar novel Chapter 1389

Chapter 1389 New Beginning

On the day of the wedding, the faces of the bride, groom and their families were all dark.

More than fifty percent of their invited guests had already called to cancel their attendance. Those were the courteous ones.

Then there were those who didn't even bother calling that they would no longer attend the wedding. They just failed to show up.

Mao Qiuyue was so upset that she almost didn't want to go through the wedding. It was only when her parents and her future mother-in-law, Zheng Suyin, persuaded her that she forced herself to endure today's humiliation.

She walked on the long aisle with stiff steps. It was only because of the team of photographers and videographers they hired for the wedding that she managed to maintain a smile.

Today was her wedding day.

It was one of the most important events of her life as a woman.

Even when she was boiling with fury and humiliation deep inside, she still had to show a happy expression for all the world to see. Her family's honour was on the line.

They also spent a lot of money for this wedding. They had to make it big and lavish for the sake of their reputation.

The Longs and the Zhengs also contributed to the costs, of course. But since the bride was a Mao, then her family was the one who had the most to lose if this marriage match failed.

Mao Qiuyue gritted her teeth and smiled wider, pretending not to see all the empty seats in such a large venue.

Long Hui was waiting for her at the end of the aisle. His expression was blank. He looked dead in the eyes as if there was nothing to live for after this.

Today was supposed to be a joyous occasion but the atmosphere was tense and grave instead.

In the front-row seats on the groom's side, Long Tengfei sat beside his wife, Yang Jiahui. He looked displeased and disappointed at the same time.

"This is an embarrassment," he muttered under his breath. "An complete embarrassment."

Yang Jiahui squeezed his arm, silently warning him not to say too much.

There was a cold snort from the seat nearby.

Zheng Suyin threw them a cold side-eye. "Look at what your youngest daughter and her husband did!"

"Don't you dare blame my youngest daughter and son-in-law!" Long Tengfei defended. "They have nothing to do with this!"

His ex-wife snorted. "Of course, they have everything to do with this. If Long Xiulan didn't side with that lowly bodyguard instead of her own brother and made her husband use his influence to put pressure on our son, then all of this would never have happened."

Long Tengfei was infuriated at her accusations. "You—"

"Tengfei," Yang Jiahui pulled him. "Please."

He restrained his temper and sat back. Everything today was already embarrassing enough. There was no need for him to add to the embarrassment by making a scene with his ex-wife.

Zheng Suyin wanted to continue shaming her ex-husband and his current wife but decided to let them off for now because the wedding ceremony was about to start.

She glanced at her son's in-laws, the Maos. Their eyes met. No words were needed at this point. All of them were upset. [Read official chapters on W e b n o v e l (dot) com. Please stop supporting piracy. Also follow author on Instagram: @arriacross]

They would remember this humiliation and make the culprits pay one way or another.

At the same time in Lin Yehan's farm villa, row upon row of vehicles started arriving along the rustic driveway.

Since this was a gala to celebrate the silver-medal victory of the national shooting team in the world championships, a few selected media representatives were invited to report on the event. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

The guest list included a rather wide lineup of people across the social strata.

One after another, notable figures across different fields appeared. Each one was more impressive than the last.

There were elite business leaders, members of high society, high-ranked politicians and even a few officers from the military and the police.

A number of celebrities and social media influencers also attended.

Academics and other athletes close to the members of the national shooting team also came to give their support.

Of course, the team's coaches and support groups were coming as well. Lin Yehan was their colleague after all.

The team's family and friends wouldn't miss this gala for the world.

And most importantly, the national team athletes themselves who brought pride and glory to their country were scheduled to be welcomed with great fanfare later. They were today's stars.
