On the day of the wedding, the Century Hotel in the Magic City, one of the city's top landmark buildings, was completely booked by Su Yang with an almost exaggerated display of extravagance.
Inside and outside the hotel, everything was extremely luxurious and festive.
From the hundred-meter-long red carpet at the entrance, to the dazzling crystal chandeliers in the banquet hall, and the arrangements on every dining table... every detail silently spoke of the immense financial power and extraordinary status of the wedding's host.
Su Yang, dressed in a white groom's tuxedo, looked dashing and extraordinary.
He held a glass of champagne, moving among the elegantly dressed guests, his face beaming with unprecedented confidence and pride!
Today was Su Yang's moment of glory, returning to his peak after three years!
It was also his perfect stage to prove his true strength to everyone, especially to Yun Xiyue!
The surrounding guests, his invited friends, whether business magnates or influential dignitaries, now looked at him with awe and flattery.
And among them, his mother-in-law, Lin Meizhu, who had once been endlessly difficult and sarcastic towards him, was now like a pug, following him closely, her face plastered with fawning smiles, showering Su Yang with 瘋狂 praise!
"Oh, my good son-in-law!"
"Look at you today, dressed in this suit, you're a hundred times more handsome than those movie stars!"
"I knew it! I knew you weren't an ordinary person, and you would soar to great heights sooner or later!"
Listening to these words, Su Yang felt extremely pleased!
Hahaha, do you see!
Today, I am the most dazzling guy in the Magic City!
Just then, one of his subordinates, responsible for security at the wedding, hurried to his side, lowered his voice, and reported with a solemn expression:
"God of War! Something seems to be wrong at the venue!"
"I just found several people among the guests with malicious auras. It looks like they might be your former..."
Upon hearing this, Su Yang merely waved his hand casually, interrupting him.
"It's nothing."
"Just a few clowns, no need to pay attention to them."
"Today is Xi Xi's and my big day, and I don't want anything unpleasant to happen."
"Let them watch, let them watch carefully!"
"Let them know that I, Su Yang, am still not someone they can easily provoke!"
The tranquility amidst the clinking of glasses was merely a superficial illusion, beneath which currents of intrigue already lay hidden.
On the surface, it gathered those who had received Su Yang's help and felt grateful.
And in the shadowy corners, his old enemies, whom he had once trampled underfoot, had also quietly mingled among the crowd, waiting for their chance.
However, extreme confidence and joy caused Su Yang's God of War heart, which should have remained vigilant, to relax for a moment... Just as the atmosphere of the wedding venue was gradually being pushed to a climax by the groom's high spirits, a sudden commotion erupted at the hotel entrance!
A luxury car with a Capital City license plate slowly stopped at the end of the red carpet.
The car door opened.
A young man in a suit, with a refined appearance and clean demeanor, slowly stepped out of the car.
It was Yan Che, who had lent Su Yang a billion yuan and traveled all the way from the Capital City to support him!
Upon closer inspection, this man's appearance... was surprisingly seventy to eighty percent similar to Lu Cheng's??
Beside him was a tall, imposing, mysterious woman wearing large sunglasses, with her face deliberately concealed by a mask and a scarf.
Yan Che's appearance instantly caused a huge sensation at the wedding venue!
"Oh my God! Is that person... is that Young Master Lu? Didn't he just arrive? Why did he change his clothes again?"
"No, no! Although they look very similar, their aura... seems a little different?"
Lu Cheng had also arrived at the venue early and finally saw Yan Che, Su Yang's backstage supporter who was only briefly mentioned in the plot.
However, when he saw Yan Che's surprisingly similar face to his own, his eyes narrowed almost imperceptibly, deep in thought.
Qi Observation Technique, quietly activated!
Sure enough!
Around Yan Che, there was also a circle of golden destiny!
And when his gaze fell upon the mysterious woman whose face was deliberately concealed, the system immediately provided a corresponding prompt!
"Ding! A new Child of Destiny and associated character have been detected! The script 'After Three Years as a Stand-in, She Regrets It' has automatically triggered plot foresight!"
"Child of Destiny Name: Yan Che"
"Identity: Protagonist of 'After Three Years as a Stand-in, She Regrets It'"
"Main Ability: Stand-in Arrangement"
"Combat Power: 200 (Late-stage Mingjin)"
"Charm Value: 98 (Celestial)"
"Destiny Rating: SS"
"Associated Character: Fu Yuan (Yandere Female Lead)"
Lu Cheng looked at the familiar figure, whose powerful aura and peerless elegance were still undeniable despite being deliberately concealed, and some long-sealed memories resurfaced in his mind... Fu Yuan... his former... well, a rather persistent and troublesome fangirl?
Uh... and she even found a stand-in who looks like me?
And she's the type who plays mind games... When that last piece of the puzzle, concerning the true nature of Su Yang's backstage supporter, was completely uncovered, the final thread of the elaborate net Lu Cheng had woven for Su Yang was also tightened.
Now, it was time to prepare the "gift" he would present to Su Yang later.
As Lu Cheng left the wedding venue, Fu Yuan's eyes, hidden behind her sunglasses, reluctantly withdrew from him...
As more and more guests arrived, the atmosphere at the wedding venue once again reached a new climax!
Lin Meizhu and Yun Zhenxiong, the couple, seized this opportunity to once again raise their glasses and approach Su Yang, beginning a new round of even more effusive praise and toasts!
"Oh! My good son-in-law!"
"Your influence is too great! Even a big shot from the Capital City came personally to congratulate you?"
"Quick, quick! Tell Mom, who is this immortal being?"
Under their enthusiastic persuasion and flattery, Su Yang, who was already somewhat giddy, relaxed all his vigilance even further.
He raised his glass and, one after another, drank with the guests who came forward to toast him!
His mood became even more cheerful and proud!
He felt as if he had reached the pinnacle of the entire world!
He held wealth and connections in one hand, and was about to embrace the woman he loved most in the other!
What more could he ask for in life?
He raised the champagne glass in front of him, which had already been filled, and with soaring confidence, he loudly announced to all the guests:
"Everyone!"
"Thank you all for coming to my and Yun Xiyue's wedding today!"
"Please wait a moment!"
"Now, let me go home to pick up my bride, the most beautiful and kind bride in the whole world!"
