Juicy Gossip: A Wife Destroyed for Her Money!

Bai Qiongyu stared at Ning Shile and was just about to ask when Ning Shile blinked at him in confusion. Why are you looking at me?

Is there something on my face? Ning Shile touched his face. No? Or is it on this side? Ning Shile touched his other cheek.

Bai Qiongyu's eyes suddenly widened.

Had the other guy just... not moved his mouth?

He touched his own forehead.

He didn't have a fever, either.

Bai Qiongyu was even more shocked. Then how could he hear him talking?

Seeing Bai Qiongyu staring at Ning Shile, Bai Qiongyu couldn't resist teasing him. "What's wrong, little brother? Taken a liking to him?"

Bai Qiongyu snapped out of it and looked warily at his older sister. "Don't start, sis."

"Haha." His sister laughed.

"Speaking of which, why did you finish so early?" Bai Qiongyu checked the time. "It's only been a few minutes."

His sister's expression stiffened at the question. She waved a hand, unwilling to bring it up again.

The sudden change in her attitude left Bai Qiongyu baffled.

Don't even get me started. It was all because of those four guys!

Ning Shile's voice sounded again. This time, Bai Qiongyu was certain he hadn't opened his mouth.

He looked around and found that everyone else's expressions were normal, as though they hadn't heard Ning Shile speaking.

Did that mean he was the only one who could hear this voice?

Was this for real...? Bai Qiongyu raised his eyebrows slightly. How cool!

Han Jin really is scum. Running up all that online gambling debt was bad enough, but he actually had the loan sharks pose as his buddies and come to the wedding!

Those four guys looked like bad news from the start. They even harassed the bridesmaid in front of all those people. Poor Tao Wan must be traumatized!

Bai Qiongyu frowned, pressing his lips into a thin line.

What was this guy talking about?

What bridesmaid harassment? Han Jin was a gambler with debts? There were even loan sharks at this wedding?

Bai Qiongyu instinctively looked at Han Jin.

Men were always the best judges of other men. Bai Qiongyu had never liked this so-called brother-in-law of his. He had always thought the man was a hypocrite, fake from head to toe.

But his sister liked him. Ever since they had gotten together, her social media posts had been all about Han Jin: what he had cooked for her today, where he would take her tomorrow, what gift he would give her the day after. They were ridiculously lovey-dovey.

For a while, Bai Qiongyu had even wondered whether he was overthinking it.

Feeling Bai Qiongyu's scrutinizing gaze, Han Jin paused, then gave him a polite smile.

Bai Qiongyu nodded slightly in return.

Still smiling? That bastard actually has the nerve to smile!

Ning Shile seethed. You murderous, money-grubbing scumbag! Bai Qiongyu is so good to you, and what do you do? Swindle her money and play with her feelings! With Bai Qiongyu backing him after the wedding, he only got more brazen!

His gambling addiction got worse and worse. He even started gambling in person! He also kept a bunch of women at the casino!

He lost tens of millions in a single night. Bai Qiongyu was shocked when she saw the transaction records and finally grew suspicious.

Bai Qiongyu asked him where all that money had gone, but he couldn't answer, so she cut off Han Jin's cards. And that heartless bastard actually teamed up with those women from the casino to stage a fake haunting and drive Bai Qiongyu insane.

What?!

Bai Qiongyu's expression slowly darkened as he struggled to suppress the emotions surging inside him.

Han Jin was even going to hurt his sister?

Afterward, that scumbag took Bai Qiongyu's money and went off to enjoy himself! He moved abroad under a new identity and lived the good life!

Poor Sister Bai Qiongyu died not long after being sent to a psychiatric hospital.

At that, Bai Qiongyu's eyes darkened. He clenched his fists and stared at Han Jin as though he were looking at a heap of mangled flesh.

He would never allow that to happen. Never.

But before anything else, he needed to verify whether it was true.

"Sis, I heard someone bullied the Bridesmaid earlier?" Bai Qiongyu did his best to keep his expression steady. Unlike Zheng Ye and Chu Ran, he had the harmless look of a friendly puppy. His smile was as warm as a sea breeze, his eyes innocent and clear, like a big golden retriever's. "Who was it?"

"You heard about that already...?" Bai Qiongyu's expression grew stiff. "I didn't know them, either. There were four of them, I think... One had a buzz cut? They're all Han Jin's friends."

Han Jin chimed in, lowering his eyes as though deeply embarrassed. "I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have invited them."

Bai Qiongyu glanced at Han Jin.

It seemed everything that young man had said was true.

Ding—

The elevator doors opened, and Bai Qiongyu immediately turned to look for those four men.

Bai Qiongyu and her group had been the first to come down, with the other guests following behind. Afraid he wouldn't make it in time, Bai Qiongyu headed straight for the stairs.

As luck would have it, the four men were smoking in the stairwell. They glanced over when they saw Bai Qiongyu but paid him no mind, continuing to laugh and chat.

Bai Qiongyu stopped in front of them and stood still.

He had been sent abroad at eighteen. Thanks to Old Master Bai, the school he attended was in Flohai, one of the most lawless regions abroad, where violence was commonplace. Living in that environment, Bai Qiongyu had naturally learned how to eat people alive.

A cold pressure radiated from him. Realizing he hadn't come with good intentions, the four exchanged glances.

The lackey beside the buzz-cut man straightened first, lifting his chin as he blocked Bai Qiongyu's path. "What do you want?"

Bai Qiongyu didn't even lift his eyelids. "Get your boss."

The buzz-cut man's brow furrowed further at that. He straightened and stepped forward, pushing his lackey aside.

He was half a head shorter than Bai Qiongyu, which left him at a disadvantage in sheer presence.

Though Bai Qiongyu was young, the viciousness in his expression looked anything but feigned. His moist, downturned eyes were unusually sharp as he asked, "How much does Han Jin owe you?"

The buzz-cut man seemed not to have expected that question. "Who are you?" he asked warily.

Apparently unwilling to waste words on him, Bai Qiongyu wrote out a check and handed it over. "Enough?"

The buzz-cut man took the check suspiciously, and his expression changed at once. "Yes, yes, more than enough."

More than enough indeed—there was even extra!

The buzz-cut man shot his lackeys a look. They immediately plastered on smiles and bowed ingratiatingly. "Then we'll be on our way? We won't trouble you any longer."

"Wait." Bai Qiongyu raised a hand to block their path. "Do something for me."

"What is it? Just say the word." The buzz-cut man tucked the check into his pocket. "If it's something we can do, we'll get it done!"

Bai Qiongyu lowered his hand, his tone slow and calm. "I want you to ruin this wedding."

The bride's parents hadn't come to the wedding.

Bai's Parents opposed their daughter marrying Han Jin, believing he wasn't good enough for her. But she had set her heart on him and insisted on marrying him even if it meant cutting ties with her family.

Both Bai's Parents and their daughter were stubborn. Neither side would back down.

So her younger brother was the only member of the Bai family attending the wedding.

Han's Parents stood at the entrance, smiling and neatly dressed as they welcomed the guests.

Meanwhile, Han Jin was backstage getting ready.

At noon sharp, the banquet hall lights went out and the music began, instantly setting the mood.

The hotel hosting the wedding wasn't particularly upscale, but care had clearly gone into the preparations.

Orange-red fireworks crackled on either side, and a chandelier spanning a hundred square meters lit up. Many guests took out their phones to capture the moment.

"Now, let us welcome the Bride." The emcee raised a hand.

The Groom turned toward the entrance.

Petals showered down from the drapes. A spotlight shone on the doors as they slowly opened.

The bride, Bai Qiongyu, appeared before everyone in a pure white wedding dress.

Time stood still.

The bride and groom gazed at each other, surrounded by a hall full of flowers. Everyone around them was moved by the sight.

In a corner, Bai Qiongyu watched coldly.

The real show was still to come.
