253 Finally Seeing Him
Regardless of whether the news of the celestial lord choosing a wife was true or false, it seemed that it was mainly a gimmick or a cover. These girls were not only here for the wife selection but also to be bid on by the audience members. These people covered themselves up and came here not to watch the show but to buy the woman they liked.
The only thing that Du Yue did not know was whether the girls on stage were aware that they were being put up for sale on a bright and dazzling stage like commodities with a clearly marked price. As Du Yue was thinking, she suddenly heard the people around her exclaim at the same time.
The voices were not soft. Du Yue raised her head and looked around subconsciously. The men were all so excited that their eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. Du Yue’s brows furrowed slightly. She followed their line of sight and saw a girl with a beautiful figure standing in the middle of the stage. The reason why Du Yue could tell that the girl had a good figure from such a distance was that she was wearing a see-through tulle dress. The tulle of the dress was even inlaid with silver diamonds in the shape of leaves. Under the stage’s lighting, she was indeed shining and dazzling.
Du Yue stared at her for a while and suddenly realized that something was wrong. The girls who had gone on stage earlier had not left the stage. Instead, they lined up at the back. When they saw the girl in the center of the stage, they were all shocked. They were not pretending at all. It was obvious that none of them had seen the girl before. In other words, this girl did not live with them before the selection. In that case, where did she come from? Was there a reason for putting her last?
Du Yue was still pondering when she heard someone beside her shout, “Your Excellency Celestial Lord!”
Ever since Du Yue arrived at the second base, the person she had heard being mentioned the most was the celestial lord. When she heard those words, she immediately looked in the direction of the voice.
The voice came from behind her. She turned around and saw a tall and strong man standing in the last row of the audience, which was the highest point. He was dressed in a black shirt that was well-tailored, outlining his strong and superior figure. At the same time, his black clothes also gave him a mysterious aura. He slowly walked up from the dark and slowly walked to the light so that everyone could see his face.
She had to admit that he did have a handsome face. Although he looked a little feminine, it did not seem out of place for him. Instead, it added a sense of mystery to him. His hair was dark blue and slightly long, but it was styled nicely and not messy. A few strands of his fine fringe covered his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression and making him look colder at the same time.
He walked forward unhurriedly. It was only when he was in front that Du Yue saw that he was wearing a cloak. The cloak was behind him, so she was not able to tell from the front. The celestial lord’s pace was neither fast nor slow, but he was not far from the stage, so he reached the center of the stage in three minutes.
The celestial lord stood beside the girl in a tulle dress, took out a necklace from somewhere, and helped her put it on. The entire necklace was silver-white, and the pendant was a hexagram pattern with a hollowed-out number four inside. Was this necklace unique to the celestial lord’s wives? If the celestial lord was giving it to this girl, did it mean that he had already made his choice?
At this moment, the celestial lord spoke, “Everyone, from now on, she’s my fourth wife, Xia Zhixing!”
Xia Zhixing’s skin was whiter than snow. After hearing the celestial lord’s words, her face blushed even more, making her look even more shy and alluring. Many of the men on the stage looked at Xia Zhixing with yearning and greed in their eyes, but when they saw the celestial lord standing beside her, they quickly retracted their gazes.
The celestial lord nodded slightly. “Thank you for coming to watch the selection ceremony today. I’ve prepared some small gifts for everyone here to express my sincerity. You can go to the entrance to collect them after the ceremony.”
