Ji Jiangyuan couldn’t bear to watch anymore.

George might be a bit naive, but when it came to treating Ji Ya well, from Ji Jiangyuan’s years of detached observation, he was better than any of Ji Ya’s previous boyfriends.

With Ji Ya’s temperament, only George could tolerate her.

George had spent several hundred thousand dollars to arrange an unforgettable wedding. Ji Jiangyuan understood the domestic situation well enough – not just in Pengcheng Special Zone but nationwide, this wedding was unprecedented!

Wasteful or not, at least one shouldn’t trample on another’s sincere feelings like this.

“Jiangyuan, ah, your mother just has this temperament—”

Seeing Ji Ya standing stunned, George immediately spoke up for her again.

Ji Jiangyuan let go – fine, let her make a scene if she wanted. What kind of life to live was her own choice, let her face the consequences.

Ji Ya was stunned, then furious. “Ji Jiangyuan, don’t forget who raised you. Who permitted you to speak to me like this?”

Zhen Wenxiu was anxiously sweating. “Such words go too far, how they hurt the mother-son relationship!”

Ji Jiangyuan pressed his lips together and simply stepped back, clearing the path for his mother. “I haven’t forgotten. The money I owe you, I’ll repay after graduating university.”

Even George couldn’t stop Ji Ya. Mentioning his parents watching didn’t help – Ji Ya wouldn’t listen to anything.

Yi Lin hurried over as Ji Ya had already lifted her veil. The lace gloves on her hands were torn by Zhen Wenxiu’s nails during the struggle. Ji Ya still managed to run over.

“So you came, how wonderful!”

Ji Ya picked up a wine glass from the table, looking at Tang Hongen, and then at Liu Fen.

“What’s wrong, won’t you two drink a toast with me? Today is my joyous occasion, at least give me your blessings?”

The guests wished they didn’t have ears, yet couldn’t help but prick them up to eavesdrop.

Ji Ya’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was filled with grinding teeth.

It was now clear who couldn’t let go. Yi Lin’s face was full of embarrassment. George stood with his parents, trying to calm the two who didn’t understand what was happening.

Zhen Wenxiu, Aunt Ji, Ji Jiangyuan, and others, all stood still. Ji Ya was truly too dramatic – the more they tried to stop her, the more she struggled.

No one expected Ji Ya to say anything nice to Tang Hongen and Liu Fen – it would be Buddha’s blessing if she didn’t get physical.

With all these concerns, there was a two to three-meter space around the three people, no one daring to get too close.

Hearing Ji Ya’s words, Tang Hongen didn’t reach for a wine glass, but turned to ask Liu Fen:

“Can you drink alcohol?”

The long table was filled with stemmed glass goblets. Xiaolan had mentioned that on such occasions, they should be serving “champagne,” a type of sparkling wine – well, it’s just fruit wine, what’s not to drink? Village folk drink hard liquor!

Liu Fen nodded:

“I can drink.”

Ji Ya surely wanted to see her make mistakes, just like when she had mocked her for not knowing how to use a knife and fork at the restaurant.

Everything has a first time. She had proved with actions that she could use a knife and fork, and drinking champagne would have its first time too. So just drink it, what was there to fear?

In Liu Fen’s heart, Ji Ya had originally been incomparable, unreachably high, but now looking at this person, she wasn’t anything special. Knowing a bit more about food and drink didn’t seem so remarkable… When Tang Hongen had said he wanted to date with marriage in mind, she had been just herself, never pretending in front of him, showing that Tang Hongen chose her regardless of these things.

Afen wasn’t nervous at all, her performance today exceeded Tang Hongen’s expectations.

Even when so many people had surrounded them earlier, Afen hadn’t become flustered.

Tang Hongen picked up two glasses of wine, and handed one to Liu Fen: “No need to finish it, just drink a little as you like.”

Ji Ya’s fingers tightened around her wine glass.

These two… had an indescribable understanding.

Ji Ya watched Liu Fen accept the wine glass, and Tang Hongen offer his blessing, both toasting to her. Her mind buzzed, and with a flick of her wrist, she threw the wine.

She meant to splash Tang Hongen, not Liu Fen.

Liu Fen dropped her wine glass, pulling Tang Hongen aside – the wine barely grazed Tang Hongen’s arm and splashed onto the long table nearby.

“Ji Ya!”

Yi Lin was truly about to go mad – was it so difficult to complete the wedding ceremony?

Tang Hongen wasn’t even angry. When he brought Liu Fen and Xia Xiaolan to attend the wedding, he knew that with Ji Ya’s temperament, this wedding couldn’t end smoothly – but was that his fault?!

Sure enough, Ji Ya couldn’t contain herself. After failing to splash the wine, she started acting out.

Amidst Yi Lin’s roar of anger, Ji Ya tore off her veil and, lifting her dress, ran inside.

All the guests were dumbfounded!

Zhen Wenxiu was also stunned – what kind of behavior was this?

No matter how George tried to explain now, his parents’ expressions weren’t good. Despite the language barrier, they could guess something from Ji Ya’s behavior. A several-hundred-thousand-dollar wedding turned so embarrassing – that they began to doubt George’s choice.

“George, your wife’s mental state seems unstable.”

George also ran inside.

Several close relatives rushed in after them.

The priest stood dumbly aside, finally couldn’t help but grab someone nearby: “What happened, does the bride not want to get married?”

The wedding planner from Hong Kong didn’t know how to answer.

What was this supposed to be?

Hong Kong dramas have shown such scenes.

But such plots were written by screenwriters for ratings. The planner had planned many weddings but had never seen anyone turn their day into an 8 o’clock drama like this.

A several-hundred-thousand-dollar wedding ruined by the bride herself, throwing wine at guests – and not just any guest, but an honored one everyone was eager to please. The planner had never seen such behavior.

If this marriage could continue, the American groom must truly love Miss Ji!

After Ji Ya’s scene, even the priest and planner were shocked – how could the guests not be? They were all speechless.

As for Tang Hongen, a few drops of wine had inevitably splashed on his sleeve.

“You scared me—”

Liu Fen sighed in relief. Tang Hongen waved his hand, breaking the awkwardness:

“Not only has my marital relationship with Miss Ji Ya ended, but it seems friendship is also impossible. Today is Miss Ji Ya’s joyous occasion, I won’t hold this against her. But from today forward, on any occasion, where there are Ji family members, there won’t be me, Tang. Where I am, there can’t be Ji family members. Consider this one time of me being arbitrary and overbearing… Everyone please continue, don’t let a small matter spoil the mood.”

Tang Hongen spoke casually, but in his position, every word he spoke would be carefully analyzed by others, especially such a concise statement.

Everyone understood.

Even though Tang Hongen and Ji Ya had a son, it wouldn’t make a difference. Mayor Tang was taking this opportunity with so many people present to publicly declare his stance, completely severing in-law relations with the Ji family.

Whether the Ji family was good or bad no longer had anything to do with Tang Hongen.

It wasn’t just indifference, but rejection – he had clearly stated that those who wanted to associate with the Ji family shouldn’t approach him!

This wasn’t just cutting off in-law ties, they had become enemies!
