"Little one, up to some mischief again? This time, you didn’t get tricked by some human traffickers, did you?"

"You guessed half right, but it’s not me who got tricked, it’s my mommy!"

"What happened to your mom?"

"My mommy is about to marry a complete jerk, and I don’t want to have a jerk for a stepdad. Yiyi only wants to be a good baby for daddy. Can you help Yiyi and bring mommy back?" the little girl coaxed adorably.

Third Young Master Jun was so taken aback he dropped his cigarette. His face hardened, "Your mom is getting married? When?"

"Today at two in the afternoon. It’s all up to you, daddy. If you manage to get her back, I’ll give mommy to you free of charge, and throw in a good baby like me for good measure."

Third Young Master Jun put down his phone, his expression dark, looking like a storm about to break.

"Third Young Master, we’ve finished interrogating them, should we let them go?" Lie Feng asked respectfully.

Third Young Master Jun’s beautiful eyes swept over those full of expectation, and he cruelly smiled.

"Why let them go? Clean this up."

Lie Feng was taken aback, these poor guys really were unlucky, bumping into Third Young Master when he was at his worst.

"Feiyu, back to our country!" Third Young Master Jun fell silent for a moment, then suddenly ordered.

Feiyu was surprised, "But, they confessed, we’re nearly onto the key suspect. If we leave now, we’ll miss our best opportunity."

"I don’t want to repeat myself." Third Young Master Jun coldly put on his coat and left the bar.

Early in the morning, Ye Lu had already done her makeup and put on her wedding dress. Although there were congratulations all around, she felt anything but happy. Instead, she simply felt uneasy, as if something unexpected would happen today.

The car to fetch the bride arrived, as did Ye Wanli and his wife.

Seeing their faces full of smug satisfaction, Ye Lu gritted her teeth secretly, "Remember to keep your promise and give me back my child."

Ye Wanli smiled, "Rest assured, as long as you marry Crown Prince Shang smoothly today, everything else can be discussed."

Ye Lu felt a stab of sorrow in her heart.

So this was what selling a daughter for honor was like, she finally understood.

After getting into the wedding car, Ye Lu was sitting alone, with Mr. and Mrs. Ye in the one behind her.

Ye Lu’s eyes gleamed, she picked up the phone and dialed a number, with a nervous whisper: "Go ahead and take action now!"

After handing down her directives, she hung up.

Halfway through the ride, the phone rang again. It was a strange number, Ye Lu frowned. She was too nervous to answer the phone, but it kept ringing relentlessly, as if not planning to stop until she replied.

Agitated, Ye Lu picked up the call. Before she could even speak, a dangerously angry and commanding voice spoke from the other end. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Ye Lu, you dare ignore my warnings. Get out of the car immediately, take off the wedding dress, and break off your engagement with the Shang family!"

Ye Lu’s hand trembled as she held the phone. She immediately recognized that voice, her heart went cold. Lord, it was Third Young Master Jun!! How did he know about her wedding?

A chill ran down her spine. She had a feeling that man, knowing this, would do something horrible.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"Stop playing dumb with me, I don’t have patience for it. I warn you, break off the engagement immediately! You won’t marry anyone without my permission!" Third Young Master Jun was fuming, there was a hint of grinding teeth too, as if he’d let this woman slip through his fingers time and again.

Who could’ve thought this woman would grow some balls, dare to defy his warning, and get married privately.

When he heard the little girl mention this, he was so angered he could barely contain himself. Who would’ve known, he’d been played by her all this time.
