His Genius Wife is a Superstar (Web Novel)
chapter-910-04061304

Wei Lan's face twisted in fury. She glared at Long Tengfei and his current wife, Yang Jiahui, as her red-blood, talon-like nails dug hard on Randy's arm.

The Zumba instructor winced at the pain but endured it, not wanting to create another spectacle in front of so many notable people. He was now regretting his decision to escort the impulsive and volatile Wei Lan.

"How dare you scold me in front of so many people?" Wei Lan snarled at Long Tengfei. "You don't have the right! You're not my husband anymore."

"And thank heavens for that," Long Tengfei muttered.

"Tengfei," Yang Jiahui warned him in a soft voice and tugged his arm in an effort to remind him to restrain his temper.

"What did you say?!" Wei Lan stepped forward and looked ready to fight.

"Enough!" a booming voice echoed throughout the indoor forest.

Grandpa Lu stepped forward and positioned himself between the battle-ready ex-spouses. He glared first at Wei Lan and then at Long Tengfei.

"Why are you two quarreling like spoiled little kids? I want to know! I don't like interfering in other people's private business. You can fight all you want for all I care but this involves Xiulan my girl since both of you are her parents. This old man just can't stand back and allow the two of you to ruin this wonderful day! This is a happy occasion for your daughter, for Liwei my boy who's going to be her husband, and for all of us, their family and friends! And yet both of you are causing this ugly drama! Aren't you embarrassed?! I know that it's a huge shock to all of us that Xiulan my girl and Liwei my boy kept their wedding today a secret but what can we do when that's what they want? We should all respect their wishes and be happy for them! Hmph!"

Long Tengfei's face burned red in embarrassment. Although he was one of the more open-minded individuals compared to the other old-fashioned members of the Long clan, pride and face were still very important to him. He felt like he had been shamed today by his ex-wife in front of so many distinguished figures and even caused the legendary Sir Lu Jianhong to scold the two of them like little misbehaving children.

In contrast to him, Wei Lan didn't feel embarrassed at all. She only felt annoyed at being scolded by Grandpa Lu. She had no time to feel embarrassed when she felt very upset that her daughter Xiulan didn't allow her to plan a grand wedding!

How could the daughter of Vizcondesa Lan marry in such a simple garden wedding with just a few guests?! For goodness' sake, Jin Liwei was a billionaire! The man could afford anything money could buy! Why did he not spend millions in what should be the grand wedding of the century? Did he not love her daughter Xiulan enough that he was being stingy like this?

The wedding of multi-award-winning musician Iris Long and multibillionaire Jin Liwei should be broadcast on national television! The guests should be showbiz A-listers, company executives, high-ranking officials—in short, all the big names in every industry!

Wei Lan became more and more upset the longer she thought about her pitiful daughter's pathetic wedding. She fished out a lace handkerchief from her diamond-encrusted clutch and wiped nonexistent tears from her eyes.

"My poooooor daughter! As her mother, I find this plain wedding completely unacceptable—"

Randy made a decision in that instant. He lifted Wei Lan and carried her off.

"What are you doing, Raaaaaaandyyyyyyy?! How daaaaaaare you manhandle this viscountess?!!!"

They disappeared behind the trees.

When they were gone, everyone looked at each other. The atmosphere was very awkward.

Long Tengfei clenched both his fists and stepped forward. "Everyone, I offer you my deepest apologies for what just happened. As Xiulan's parents, I am deeply ashamed that the two of us lost control of our tempers in front of all of you especially during this important occasion in our daughter's life."

Yang Jiahui also stepped forward and held on to his arm. Her face was also filled with silent apology.

"Let's not dwell on it anymore and leave it where it belongs—the past." It was surprisingly Huang Yuyan who said this. She was usually shy and a little timid but her current expression was very sympathetic. "We are going to be official in-laws today. We're about to be family."

"Indeed," Grandma Li's cold and authoritative voice said next. "Now let's remove this gloomy mood at this instant. I don't want the groom and the bride and their entourage to enter and see this unpleasantness among their guests. We've all been invited here today because Liwei and Xiulan want to share this important lifetime event with all of us. Therefore, it is our duty to make this day extra memorable to both of them."

Everyone murmured their agreement.

"Now that's settled! Good!" Grandpa Lu turned to the event staff hovering in an awkward manner in the background. "This old man's poor knees are weak and very tired from standing for too long. Do we have designated seats or can we just sit wherever we want? Tell us, we want to know!"

The wedding planner immediately signaled for her staff to lead everyone to their assigned seats. In just a few moments, everyone settled down.

At that moment, a much calmer Wei Lan and an exhausted but relieved Randy finally returned. They were also shown to their designated seats beside Long Tengfei and Yang Jiahui as the parents of the bride.

Everyone looked at her warily, wondering if she was going to make another scene and complain about being seated beside her ex-husband that she just fought against. To everyone's relief, she settled down on her seat without a single word of complaint while smoothing her dress in an almost prim manner.

Then she leaned towards her escort and whispered, "You're right, Raaaaandyyy doll. I'm a viscountess now and should always maintain a classy, elegant and benevolent image. Thaaaaanks for the reminder. I'll buy you some new outfits after this."

Randy's smile was a little stiff but his relief was immense deep inside.
