Bigshot's Sweetie Is a Cat!-Chapter 1197: Husband and Wife Bow to Each Other
The two elders were initially taken aback, then they simultaneously looked at the clan leader on the grand hall, whose expression remained unchanged.
The clan leader met their gaze without any change in expression, giving them a signal.
The two elders exchanged a glance, withdrew from their seats, and then left the grand hall one after the other.
Feng Liyan toyed with the cup in his hand, his dark gray eyes slightly narrowing as he watched the departing elders.
He glanced at the clan leader on the grand hall with the corner of his eye, his gaze slightly lowered.
Then he put down the winecup, looked at Ye Qi and Wen Xiao’ai at the center of the hall, stood up, and followed them, leaving the grand hall...
"General Wu, hold on." Feng Liyan caught up with General Wu after chasing for quite a distance.
General Wu stopped at the sound, turning to look at Feng Liyan who was approaching quickly:
"Medicine King, what’s the matter?"
"Why is General Wu in such a hurry, is something happening?"
"..." General Wu’s eyes flickered a bit, seemingly wanting to conceal the matter.
"Today is the Little Princess’s wedding day, and there must not be any mistake."
"..." General Wu still wouldn’t speak.
"What did you say to the clan leader just now in your secretive conversation?"
General Wu’s pupils shrank, seemingly not expecting Feng Liyan to have noticed.
General Wu could only divulge the truth: "Zuo Yan has brought his troops to Phoenix Valley, the clan leader plans to personally deal with that fiend."
Feng Liyan frowned slightly: "Is it just Zuo Yan?"
"Not clear for now."
"Alright, General Wu, be extra careful."
"Hmm." General Wu responded and quickly left.
Feng Liyan watched General Wu’s departing figure, his expression grave.
After much thought, he decided to turn back towards the grand hall.
Zuo Yan is very cunning, last time he deliberately created several clones, then led them separately to pre-arranged ambush spots, targeting them one by one, causing such heavy casualties for our Cat Demon Clan.
No matter what this time, we must be cautious.
The grand hall was still lively.
After the matchmaker spoke a few words of blessing for the newlyweds, she proclaimed loudly:
"First, bow to heaven and earth."
Ye Qi turned to face outside the grand hall.
Wen Xiao’ai was helped by the matchmaker to turn around.
"Bow."
The pair bent over and followed with a bow. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
"Second, bow to the parents."
The matchmaker helped Wen Xiao’ai turn back, facing the clan leader on the grand hall.
"Bow."
After bowing to the clan leader, the pair then bowed to Elder Ye and Lady Ye.
"Bow to each other as husband and wife."
The pair turned to face each other.
"Bow."
Ye Qi bowed.
Wen Xiao’ai did not.
The matchmaker thought Wen Xiao’ai was tired, as everyone knew the Little Princess’s temperament.
So she smiled and said softly, "Little Princess, there’s just one last bow, and then the ceremony will be complete."
Then she spoke loudly once more:
"Bow to each other as husband and wife."
"..."
Ye Qi bowed again.
Wen Xiao’ai still did not move.
Underneath the bridal veil, her small face was already soaked with tears.
Bent over in the bowing position, Ye Qi saw droplets of crystal clear tears falling from beneath the bridal veil onto Wen Xiao’ai’s bright red wedding shoes.
The bright red surface of the shoes instantly darkened several hues.
Ye Qi’s back stiffened, his heart aching dully, finding those few drops of tears painfully glaring.
Wen Xiao’ai held her back straight, still not bowing.
Ye Qi maintained his bent-over bowing position, unmoving.
Because he didn’t know what to do.
"What’s going on here?"
"What’s wrong with the Little Princess?"
"The ceremony is almost complete, why hasn’t she bowed?"
"Little Princess?" The matchmaker called Wen Xiao’ai again.
Still, there was no movement.
Suddenly, whispers spread throughout the grand hall.
