Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 897 - 898: Set Up by Someone

Huo Jingrui knew Pan Hongkun wasn’t lying, but he wasn’t about to let them leave just like that: ”Uncle Pan, today is my wedding day, and her antics are indeed quite annoying.

Still, I’ve said it before, I’ve never given her any hint or hope. Every time she shows goodwill, I reject it sternly, but she repeatedly finds opportunities to appear in front of me seeking attention.

I’ll overlook the past since after all, I have to show respect.

But now it’s different; I’m married, and I don’t want my wife to misunderstand me or cause her any trouble. So please restrain her. If she acts irrationally again, I can only send her to a court-martial. That’s all I have to say.”

Huo Jingrui didn’t want to embarrass Pan Hongkun in front of so many people, but he didn’t want the Pan Family to keep popping up and affecting Yunyi’s mood.

Pan Hongkun felt ashamed by his daughter’s actions, but what was said wasn’t wrong; it’s his daughter who isn’t mature.

Previously, when Huo Jingrui wasn’t married, no matter what Huixin did, it could be said her feelings were pure, but if she continues to act out of line now, the nature of it would be different.

He forcefully dragged his daughter: ”I understand, she won’t come to disturb you anymore.”

Today’s incident was embarrassing for him, but it was his daughter’s mistake first. Although he felt upset, he couldn’t blame Huo Jingrui.

He clearly had talked it through with his daughter beforehand, but today’s events unfolded the way they did; he knew someone must have deliberately provoked it.

Thinking that, his gaze inevitably grew darker.

Daring to toy with the Pan Family, this enmity was indeed formed.

Pan Hongkun dragged his daughter home with a stern face: ”Tell me, what happened today, why did you suddenly come back?”

Pan Huixin looked particularly upset, keeping her head down as if she hadn’t heard her father’s words.

Seeing his daughter like this, Pan Hongkun grew angry too: ”Speak, what on earth happened?”

Pan Huixin was startled, her father had a good temper, and this was the first time he had shown such a fire at her: ”I, I...”

Pan Hongkun stared directly at his daughter: ”Don’t think about lying, you are not young anymore. Do you understand the consequences of today’s mess?”

Pan Huixin also realized she had acted impulsively: ”Dad, it was a call from Long Yueyue that made me rush back.”

Pan Hongkun was stunned for a moment upon hearing this: ”Why did she give you this call?”

Pan Huixin shook her head: ”She only said Huo Jingrui was getting married today, that the Huo Family attached great importance, and mentioned some ambiguous things which made me angry enough to take leave and rush back.”

At this moment, Fang Minjuan also hurriedly returned home upon hearing the news: ”Huixin, we talked about this before, what kind of madness did you cause today?”

Perhaps from running all the way back, after speaking, she picked up a glass of water from the table and drank it straight down: ”What exactly happened?”

Pan Huixin also knew that today’s drama probably ruined her reputation further: ”Mom, it was Long Yueyue who called me.”

Fang Minjuan was also stunned there: ”She called you, why?”

Thinking of something, she quickly got to the telephone and dialed a number: ”Sister Sun, can I ask you something?”

The person on the other end of the phone chuckled: ”What’s the matter, go ahead.”

Fang Minjuan continued: ”I want to ask if there’s been any friction between the Long Family and the Huo Family?”

The person on the other end paused for thought: ”I don’t think so; I haven’t heard of any bad rumors between the Huo Family and the Long Family. Why do you ask?”
