Prince's Substitute Bride Is A Double-face

Chapter 38 Royal Engagement Ceremony



"Well, I admit you win. In fact, he loves to sleep so much, because he is a pig!" Said Charles after he raised her interest. The answer he gave was actually to amuse her. Emily was so angry that she rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.

At noon, Emily still went into the student canteen with Justin, talking and laughing. They came out together after lunch.

On the way, there were still discussions among students, but Emily didn't care.

Two days passed peacefully, and finally the engagement party of the royal family was held. This engagement party was so luxurious that no family could match it.

On the street, soldiers in red and yellow were neatly dressed and armed. They stood solemnly on both sides of the road, cheering for His Highness's engagement party.

All the people in the streets and alleys were singing and dancing for this huge banquet. It was so lively.

24 Rolls-Royce phantoms lined up in a long line to pick up the well-dressed Emily from the An Family to the royal palace.

The ceremony would be held there. The people who would attend the engagement party today were all influential figures in Sakura Kingdom. Ordinary people were not qualified to enter the palace. Sitting in the car, Emily was uneasy, tightly clenching the white skirt corner.

Looking around, she felt that there were two ways to screw up the engagement ceremony. One was that a group of killers appeared on the way and kidnapped her, and the other was that James disappeared.

She looked around, hoping that James had used the first method, but she was too simple. The royal engagement was heavily guarded, and the soldiers standing on both sides of the road were trustworthy. They really wore real guns to fight against the terrorists who should prevent the engagement ceremony. They would make sure the ceremony completed successfully.

The speed of the car was not fast and not slow. The crowd outside wanted to see her with their own eyes, but they were all controlled by the soldiers with guns.

"Let us see our future queen."

"Exactly..."

Soon, the car passed through the city from the An Family and gradually entered the Royal Castle. The most luxurious and grand buildings in Sakura Kingdom stood in the golden sun.

On each side of the pink rose road, there was a row of knights riding high horses. Each of them was playing a kind of instruments like suona horn and flute on the big horse. They walked towards the palace step by step, singing and dancing.

When they arrived at the banquet hall of the palace, it was almost noon. The long red carpet spread all the way to the door of the banquet hall, and then extended from outside to inside. The guests had arrived one after another, and they were ready for lunch. The banquet could not really start until their fiancée arrived.

Wearing a pure black tuxedo with a black bow knot on the white shirt, James fixed his hair with hair gel water and made a cool hair style. There was no superfluous expression on his handsome face. He was impatient waiting for the arrival of the reception team.

Finally, the 24 Rolls-Royce phantoms arrived at the gate of the royal banquet hall. A waiter immediately went to open the door and protected the top of the door with his hand to welcome today's princess. Emily stretched out a snow-white foot. Her foot was in a crystal high heel. The top of the shoe was tied to her ankle with white silk, forming a very beautiful bowknot shape. Then, the hemline of the long dress held by her hand was swept down and fell directly to the ground. It was light and elegant.

There were shining diamonds on it. The white strapless dress was simple but elegant. Her black curly hair was pulled aside and she made up a beautiful hair style. Then she held it with her hairpin and wore a crown inlaid with hundreds of diamonds above her bangs.

It was just an engagement, but it was so luxurious.

James walked over reluctantly. He stretched out his hand to welcome Emily.

Wearing a pair of white silk gloves, Emily put down her hand on his expressionlessly and walked into the banquet hall on the red carpet.

The pleasant music started. With their entering, the guests sitting at the table burst into a warm applause.

"Why didn't you run away?" With a fake smile on her face, Emily bit her lips and asked James next to her in a low voice.

"Why should I escape?" With a faint smile, James politely led her forward to the stage in front of her to complete the engagement ceremony with her. The parents of both sides were sitting there waiting for them.

"Hey, don't you want to be engaged? Did you take any measures today?" Emily was a little aggressive, but she still smiled with her eight neat teeth showing obediently, letting everyone witness her "happy moment".

"I've told you that I've changed my mind. This is my surprise for you, my fiancée." With an evil smile, James put his arms around her slim waist, causing the crowd to scream.

She knew that the wedding ceremony was being broadcast all over the world, and she was still threatened. She couldn't act rashly. Well, since this guy cheated halfway, she would think of a way after the engagement.

"Thank you for the surprise, Prince James. Have you sent one million dollars to my designated account?" Emily gritted her teeth and pretended to thank him. Then she mentioned the money again. "It has been transferred to your designated account this morning. You can check it."

"It's okay. I'm relieved now." Emily felt relieved.

"Don't you blame me for not ruining the engagement? Or, actually you want to get engaged to me?" James was so narcissistic.

"You think too much. My Lord, you are the last one I want to get engaged to." With her eyes wide open, Emily rolled her eyes to him.

"Really? But what can you do? You're going to be engaged to the person you don't want to get engaged to the most. How do you feel?" On purpose, James held her tighter and whispered in her ear affectionately, which made her ears itchy.

When the two passed by Justin's table, Justin was so angry that he almost crushed his glass. Today, he had the right to enter the royal sacred palace on behalf of the Lu Family's heir and attend the engagement party.

In a second, Emily caught sight of Justin. She blinked at him who was in a white suit. She didn't expect him to be so handsome today.

Getting her greeting signal, Justin felt better and smiled at her. All this was witnessed by James.

They walked a little further and came to the table of Lisa, Henry, Charles and Connie, the most honorable table of the four political giants.

Lisa wore a black slip dress and looked cute with her short hair. It was the first time that she wore such a sexy and charming dress, which had a special style. Henry's bang was fixed to the side, revealing his bright and good-looking forehead. He wore a silver suit, which was mature and lovely. As for Charles, he undoubtedly wanted to steal all the limelight of James today. He wore a rose red shirt and a little vest. He was almost as handsome and enchanting as His Highness. Every time he blinked his beautiful eyes, a large number of ladies from famous families got obsessed. Connie was still wearing heavy make-up, and today she wore a delicate pink bubble skirt.

When Emily saw their table, she nodded politely. After a second, James took Emily to the stage in the center.

The noble emperor and the queen were sitting in the two golden noble sofa chairs in the middle. Wearing the formal suits of the court, they sat solemnly, waiting for the new couple to greet them.

"Hello, uncle, aunt."

"Darling, why do you still call us uncle and aunt? Shouldn't you change the way you call us? You are engaged and you are the future daughter-in-law of the royal family. What do you think you should call us?" The queen reminded the dull Emily happily.

"Well, father, mother."

"That's right. That's right. Good girl. James, take the family rings we prepared for you. They are passed down from the ancestors of the Ou Family. It's said that the heir of the royal family will be happy for a lifetime with them. Come on, let us give them to you today." The queen enthusiastically picked up a delicate jewelry box from the table and put it in the James' hand.

"James, remember that you are not alone in the future. Take good care of your Shirl, okay?" The emperor said sincerely, as if teaching him at the most important intersection in his life as a father. "Yes, father. I will do it." James nodded.

In her heart, Emily despised him for once. How could you pretend? Let's see how long you can pretend. Since you don't want to mess up the engagement, you are just a coward. It's better for her to do it herself. Anyway, everyone thinks that the engagement is only for Shirley of the An Family, and it has nothing to do with herself.

As soon as the brocade box was opened, they saw a pair of shining ruby rings.

Everyone stood up excitedly, wanting to see the style of the royal ancestral treasure. They were really beautiful.

The ring was in the shape of a sakura. The red gem, like a flower condensed from blood, was inlaid on it. The boy's was thicker and just a little masculine than the girl's.

"Wow, they are so beautiful." Everyone who saw the rings marveled at the luxury and beauty of the rings.

Only the emperor and the queen knew the story behind the rings. It was said that since the ancestors of the Ou Family founded Sakura Kingdom, in order to protect the peace and everlasting love of the whole Sakura Kingdom, the ancestors condensed their blood to make this pair of rings, which was passed down from generation to generation. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
