Lu Mingfei Development Program

Chapter 586: Wedding at the End of the Century
Lu Mingfei came to the stunned Chen Motong and threw the photo album she sent him into her hands: "You'd better keep this kind of vain thing for yourself."

Chen Motong opened her mouth. The huge spark in the sky did not dissipate because of Lu Mingfei's arrival. It slowly bloomed in the darkness, like a bright sun... It was also the most beautiful flower she had ever received.

She looked down and saw that the cover of the album was a girl wrapped in gauze, which was both sexy and seductive, yet pure and elegant. She was quite satisfied with the photo, and it was not conceited no matter how she looked at it.

"...Now is not the time to talk about this, right?" Holding the photo album in his arms, Chen Motong stood up in surprise.

She staggered when she stood up suddenly, and she had to support the boy in front of her to stand up. She reached out and touched and pinched the boy's body, and felt the existence of the album in her arms, and then she confirmed that the people and things in front of her were real, not the hallucinations she saw before she was about to go crazy.

"What are you doing?" Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows.

Chen Motong pinched his face: "Confirm that you are real, and not a fantasy before I go crazy."

Lu Mingfei slapped her hand away: "It seems that you are very sober. As for the fact that you said a bunch of inexplicable words and disappeared inexplicably, I will talk to you about it after we go back..."

He suddenly stopped talking because the red-haired girl in front of him hugged him tightly, rubbing her fair and soft cheek against his clothes, giving him a sense of security, like a little girl reuniting with her long-parted teddy bear.

Lu Mingfei sighed softly and did not push her away immediately. Even he knew that it was not appropriate to push away a girl with tears on her face at this time.

But the next second, the soft touch on his mouth made him suddenly stunned.

The girl's enthusiasm is like her red hair, a bright flame in this dark space. After experiencing the unimaginable loneliness, she is as hot as a furnace, as if even if the boy in front of her is not real, she is willing to fall into it, just to get that little bit of warmth.

Chen Motong hugged Lu Mingfei tightly. She was like a traveler who had been trekking on the ice for a long time and came across a warm stove. Even though she knew that the scorching stove would burn her, she still held on tightly and refused to let go.

"What? Do you think it's weird that I like you?" She put her arms around Lu Mingfei's neck, and looked at him with a smile in her maple-leaf eyes, like the smug look every girl gets when her long-lasting secret love is revealed.

Those eyes seemed to be saying: Look, you feel lucky to have a girl like me like you, don’t you?

Lu Mingfei was somewhat confused by this sudden confession. He pondered where this inexplicable feeling came from? Was it the same as Eri's, also from the old world?

He knew that Chen Motong was eccentric and hard to understand. He didn't understand why Chen Motong expressed her love in this way, because the red-haired girl gave him the feeling that she would never fall in love with someone easily.

...But on the contrary, once she likes someone, he or she should be prepared to be pestered, because she will never give up easily.

"Are you stunned?" Chen Motong pointed his finger at Lu Mingfei's nose.

She said with a smile: "I know this is very sudden, but life is full of surprises. Don't worry, I will explain to Lucrecia and Chu Yuzhen if they still remember me. You don't have to worry about your nanny team. I am on the same front with them. Anyway, one more person won't make any difference..."

"Wait a moment." Lu Mingfei called out to Chen Motong who was talking nonstop.

He reached out and touched her forehead, slowly pushing the red-haired girl who was arranging him. Chen Motong did not resist, but cooperated obediently. The pair of maple-leaf red eyes were silently looking at him, as if there were flames dancing, either burning her lover or igniting herself.

He looked at her silently: "As for when you fell in love with me, we can talk about it after we leave. As for now, I will send you out, and Renata and the others will pick you up."

Without answering immediately, Chen Motong looked at Lu Mingfei silently, and the fire in her scarlet eyes gradually subsided.

She sighed and said quietly, "Unfortunately, I can't seem to leave here."

"What do you mean?" Lu Mingfei looked at her puzzledly.

Looking up and meeting his gaze, Chen Motong continued, "I am the bride to be presented to the emperor. I cannot leave the 'hall' until the wedding is complete."

Lu Mingfei looked at her silently, then looked around the ruined palace, and then said slowly: "You call this place the auditorium, it's really humorous."

"I can't help it." Chen Motong continued to sigh, "Although I can't hold 60 weddings like Lucrecia, as a girl, I also want to hold a wedding in a romantic and elegant place that can only happen once in my life. Of course, it would be nice if the wedding venue was covered with flowers."

For a girl like her who is so stubborn and will not stop pursuing her target once she sets her mind on it, a wedding is either something she will never have in her life, or she can only have a grand wedding.

Lu Mingfei frowned. He tried to communicate with the real world and open a door to the outside world just like he did when he sent Xia Mi and Ruo Dun away.

This ability suddenly appeared after he left Black Swan Harbor and went deep into other fragments of the old world. When both humans and dragons would be in danger because of going deep into the fragments of the old world, he did not feel any discomfort. Although he could not come and go freely, it was easy and carefree.

For him, wandering through these fragments of the old world was like touring his own country.

But now, he found himself constrained and unable to communicate with the real world. It seemed that some existence in the darkness interfered with him, making him unable to come and go freely like before.

...It was as if another emperor had appeared in this country.

Chen Motong glanced at him who was thinking hard, paused, and said hesitantly: "Actually, this matter is troublesome and easy at the same time..."

"What is it?" Lu Mingfei looked at her puzzledly.

His intuition told him that Chen Motong might have some secrets that even the little witch didn't know. The reason why she appeared here might be related to this secret.

"That's right...that's right..." The red-haired girl who had been boldly expressing her love a second ago suddenly became a little shy, "I am the bride prepared for the emperor, but I didn't say which emperor I would marry."

She turned around and looked at Lu Mingfei silently. Her fair cheeks turned red, as if ignited by the dormant fire in his eyes.

"...The future emperor, he is also an emperor." She said softly.

Liking someone is liking someone, and getting married is getting married. It is true that she will cling to the person she likes now. However, it took less than a few minutes from confession to marriage, and even if she doesn't blush easily, she will look a little embarrassed. Lu Mingfei looked at her silently, with bright golden light in his pupils, like stars. He was not appreciating the shy look of this quirky girl, although she was indeed beautiful in her wedding dress with a red face.

He was looking for some secrets hidden in Chen Motong's body. This secret might not even be fully known by her people or even herself.

Then he saw that there was something in Chen Motong's body that was left over from an attempt in the old world.

"The Bride of the Gods..." Lu Mingfei said softly, understanding that thing.

Chen Motong represented a possibility that the husband she chose would be qualified to become the emperor. This was why her family valued her so much, and why the Gattuso family lamented that Lucrecia was born as a girl.

If Lucrecia was born as "Caesar", then she and Chen Motong would be a couple who united with the goal of becoming emperor and empress.

Theoretically, the person chosen by Chen Motong is qualified to become the emperor, but in fact, she has no way of deciding who to choose. Lu Mingfei doesn't know who gave her such power, but it is easy to guess who has such ability.

From the perspective of God's bride, it seemed to be a blessing left by Him, which would make the emperor's successor's life much easier. But for the bride herself, it was almost a curse.

Of course, this so-called "qualification to become the emperor" is just a qualification. You cannot sit on the vacant throne of the world just by having the qualification.

Lu Mingfei does not need such qualifications. He in the new world does not need recognition from the old world. What’s more, this is a failed attempt.

However, he could not ignore what the bride Chen Motong represented. She represented some kind of ancient goodwill, which was something Lu Mingfei had to know before he went to see her.

Lu Mingfei could feel that He was in this darkness, and this was also his destination.

But he couldn't sense the other party's existence. He could feel that if he was determined to find Him, this obstruction would not be a problem. But he couldn't ignore these obstructions, because it was like a reminder to him that he had something to do.

Unfinished business... Lu Mingfei glanced at Chen Motong who was silently looking at him, waiting for his response. No matter how he looked at it, this "unfinished business" was referring to her.

"...What should we do?" he asked in a deep voice.

Chen Motong looked embarrassed: "Even if you ask me, I'm confused. What's the point of getting married? This is my first time too!"

Although such a marriage is not protected by the laws of the real world, there are no guests to witness the wedding, and no one will know that such a wedding is taking place in the deepest part of the fragments of the old world.

But a marriage is a marriage. Just because others don’t know about it doesn’t mean that the wedding doesn’t exist or that the couple haven’t become husband and wife.

Chen Motong looked around and said with a wry smile, "But this place is too shabby for a wedding venue. I know I can't be picky at a time like this, but at least there should be flowers..."

Lu Mingfei looked at her deeply, sighed softly, and said softly: "Show me the flowers."

Chen Motong was stunned. A bright red color suddenly bloomed in the darkness. She stared blankly at the flower that was the same color as her hair. She couldn't understand why such a vibrant red color appeared in the darkness that was so silent that even death was unwilling to favor it.

But this was just the beginning. More and more bright red colors appeared in the darkness. They came with great force, as if the emperor was giving them orders that this place was too shabby and needed to be decorated.

Then, this vibrant and bright red color, like a wave, flooded the ruined palace.

With a strong floral scent lingering at the tip of his nose, Chen Motong felt the concept of "taste" for the second time in this dark space... The first time was on Lu Mingfei. He came here through many fragments of the old world, and his clothes were stained with the breath of those worlds, forming a fermented smell.

Even though she knew that he didn't come here alone, this smell still made her feel extremely at ease.

What surprised Chen Motong even more was that he gave her flowers. Not fireworks, but real flowers that could be touched, smelled, and seen.

Lu Mingfei was also a little surprised. He had prepared for fireworks or starlight to illuminate the darkness, or for snowflakes to slowly fall and cover the earth...but he didn't expect that it would actually be flowers this time.

"Is this a wedding gift?" Chen Motong winked at Lu Mingfei. "Even if you say it's not, I'll still treat it as it is."

Lu Mingfei took a look and said calmly: "Just take it as it is."

In the ruins of the dark palace, bright and vibrant red roses grew wildly on the broken stone pillars. Chen Motong stepped on the stairs covered with red flowers, her peony-like wedding dress and red hair fluttering in the night wind, like the most beautiful flower in the sea of ​​red flowers.

The golden light replaced the silver four-leaf clover beside her ear. She picked up the phoenix crown that she had discarded because it was too heavy and put it on again after spending a lot of effort. She also found the red veil that had disappeared from the beginning and put it on symbolically, revealing a white and beautiful face.

Lu Mingfei stood beside her, his black dress surging like darkness in the ruins. Although it was not a wedding dress, it was formal enough to be used in such an occasion.

This formal suit was naturally prepared by Ange for him. As one of the people who "cultivated" him, Ange also had his own educational concept. That is, no matter when and where, a well-dressed suit is absolutely necessary.

Even when facing a crisis like the end of the world, one must remain elegant. This is what the old gentleman wanted to teach Lu Mingfei... But Lu Mingfei actually refused at first. He really couldn't understand why he had to wear formal clothes to save the world.

But at that time, Ange looked like he was breathing in more than out, and could die at any time. He looked at him silently, as if letting him wear this clothes was his last wish, so Lu Mingfei still gave in.

Chen Motong tilted his head and looked at Lu Mingfei. Suddenly, he reached out and wiped upwards the corners of his mouth, which looked serious as if he was attending someone's funeral, to at least make him look like he was smiling.

She said helplessly: "Come on, you are holding a wedding, and the person in front of you is your bride, please be happy? If you act like this, people will think you are holding a funeral for your wife!"

"I don't have a wife." Lu Mingfei said.

"Now I have it!" Chen Motong retorted.
