Chapter 1380 - A Side Story About Si Yiyan (8)

Chapter 1380: A Side Story About Si Yiyan (8) New Century Manor looked just like a European palace in the last century. There were all sorts of colorful chandeliers and pillars. The lights seemed to have spread open like petals and they were embellished with agate.
The elaborate flooring was made from a special marble exclusive to the Cangshan mountain in Yunnan, in a carefully-selected shade of yellow. Glistering under the chandelier lightings, it reflected elegance and class and brought the natural grains above to life.
The high ceiling was embellished with 108 night luminescent pearls that were intertwined like bright stars in the sky. Xia Ruya was clad in a wedding dress that was snowy white, accompanied with a tiara that had nine colorless diamonds and pears. The train of her gown was made of stacks of white roses. She held onto Old Mrs. Wen’s arm and made her way down the long stairs of the second floor.
All eyes were on her all of a sudden.
On the other hand, Xiao Jingnan was dressed in a white tuxedo, appearing as suave as a prince from the Middle Ages. He looked like he was waiting for his princess.
When Old Mrs. Wen placed Xia Ruya’s hand in Xiao Jingnan’s, the pastor began to make his speech.
Staring at Xia Ruya longingly with affection, Xiao Jingnan asked,
Ruya, this special day has finally come. Do you know why I organized this white-rose-themed wedding for you? It’s because you’re just like a white rose to me; beautiful, pure, noble, elegant and kindhearted. A white rose symbolizes purity and kindness. You’re sacred and I’m compatible with you. I’m also willing to do everything for you. So… are you willing to marry me?

Xiao Jingnan’s words touched the hearts of many, including Xia Ruya.
Staring at Xiao Jingnan, she sobbed and exclaimed,
Yes!

The two of them exchanged rings after exchanging vows.
The video montage of Xia Ruya’s and Xiao Jingnan’s relationship began to play on the screen.

Do you know who the person who spiked your drink and caused you to get gang-raped by a few men who then posted the video of the entire process a while ago?

A smug and sharp voice sounded loudly in the venue, making Xia Ruya and Xiao Jingnan extremely astonished.
Ning Shuqian and Wen Yuya were dumbfounded as well because the voice belonged to Wen Yuya. Wen Yuya had said those words before Wen Xinya died.
The guests were flabbergasted and they stared at the screen immediately, only to discover that the montage was no longer displayed on the screen and had instead gotten replaced by Wen Yuya’s face which was twisted into a vicious grin. Wen Xinya’s face was also displayed on the screen. She was disheveled and full of resentment.
The reporters were sent into a frenzy and dashed towards Xia Ruya and Xiao Jingnan before flashing their cameras in their faces and snapping photos continuously. The situation was out of control.
They initially invited a large bunch of reporters so as to create more publicity for themselves. However, they ended up shooting themselves in the foot.
Xiao Jingnan snapped out of his shock and hollered.
Switch it off, hurry and switch the recording off…

However, his voice was soon drowned out by the flabbergasted crowd.

It was me!
answered another voice, which was extremely sweet and delicate. Everyone recognized it to be Xia Ruya’s voice too.
Xia Ruya’s face turned as pale as a sheet. She was initially full of splendor and glory. Yet, she was now in a disheveled and pathetic state. She frantically said,
Where are the people from Soaring Public Relations company? They didn’t even realize that they played the wrong recording.

Her words were weak and powerless.
She could feel the cameras flashing in her face continuously. The wedding of the century that she was initially looking forward to turned out to be as terrifying as hell. She retreated backwards in a bid to hide in a corner where no one could see her.

Don’t blame me. If you must, blame it on the fact that you’re Mo Yunyao’s daughter. What’s so good about that bitch Mo Yunyao? Why does everyone have to compare me to her? Haha… I refuse to give in. Isn’t she very outstanding? I shall make her daughter become the only stain in her life. Her daughter is a drug addict, alcoholic, promiscuous and boorish girl who often gets into fights. Hahahaha…

Ning Shuqian fell onto the ground after hearing her own voice. She screeched.
It’s not me, it wasn’t me. Hurry and switch off the recording…

Ning Shuqian dashed towards the screen in an attempt to destroy the grotesque image. However, the gown was too complicated and caused her to trip and fall onto the ground. Someone happened to snap a photo of that.
Time seemed to have frozen at that instant. Everyone stared at the screen before staring at Ning Shuqian, who seemed to be calm and kindhearted in the eyes of everyone, as well as the virtuous and demure Wen Yuya.
That turned out to be the truth behind Wen Xinya’s death.
Xiao Jingnan almost lost his mind. He instructed the staff members of the hotel and Soaring Public Relations company to switch off the recording. However, some seemed to ignore him and stared at him condescendingly. He decided to go backstage to switch it off himself, only to be thrown onto the ground by a burly man.

Xinya, I’ve actually been rather grateful towards you, because everything that I own used to belong to you. So, don’t worry, I’ll live well and blissfully. On your behalf…
Xia Ruya suddenly whipped out a syringe and stuck it into Wen Xinya’s arm forcefully.
So… go ahead… and die in peace! Remember to give me and Jingnan your blessings after you’re dead!

The camera fixated on the scene of Wen Xinya’s death.
At this moment, two sentences were displayed on the screen:

Are you fit for white roses which are pure, noble and genuine?


You’re just tainting them!

A posse of policemen rushed in and one of them said,
Xia Ruya, you’re suspected to have murdered Miss Wen Xinya. Please follow us back to the police station.

Xia Ruya shook her head continuously while retreating in a bid to flee. She knew that once she stepped into the police station, she would no longer get to be released. She had no idea what had happened and why things turned out that way.
However, Xia Ruya was destined to be arrested because of Si Yiyan’s arrangements.
Ning Shuqian and Wen Yuya were taken away together with Xiao Jingnan, who frantically yelled,
I didn’t commit a crime. What rights have you guys got to arrest me? Wen Xinya’s death has nothing to do with me…

However, his yelling was to no avail.
