He sat in a corner, out of place among the guests. No one paid him any attention. So he just stared at her on stage, his gaze never wavering. He was doing it on purpose, teasing her, knowing she couldn’t do anything about it up there.
She was flushed, her blood rushing to her head, and she felt heat all over.
Beside her, Ruan Ruan glanced at her and whispered, “Why is your face so red?” Even her ears and neck were flushed.
She replied, “The heating is too hot.” In fact, she was standing under the warm breeze.
Then I’ll switch places with you.
“OK.”
If she was stared at by Gu Ruandong any longer, she would go crazy, so she agreed to switch places with Ruan Ruan and stand in the inside position. At least then Gu Ruandong wouldn’t be able to look at her so recklessly anymore.
After that, he managed to control himself and stop thinking about those inappropriate images, and his heart gradually calmed down.
The stage was set with the newlyweds sharing a passionate kiss. The romantic music, perfectly placed lighting, and the host’s heartfelt words all contributed to an atmosphere of intense emotion and celebration.
Lu Yaoyao gradually integrated into the wedding. She had witnessed the love between Zhuo Yu’an and Ting Lan from beginning to end, even acting as an accomplice for Teacher Cheng at one point, helping him spy on them. Knowing they made it together because of their deep feelings and unwavering persistence, she was deeply moved by their journey.
Looking down, Teacher Cheng in the front row seemed to have tears in her eyes. This wedding was delayed for many years because of her and the Zhuo family. As time passed, looking back now with Zhuo Hong, what they once called family background and status seemed…
It seems, none of it matters. I believe even Grandpa’s spirit in heaven will bless us.
The last part of the wedding ceremony was listening to Lan throw the bouquet. Because she had promised earlier that she would throw it to Lu Yao Yao, she threw it accurately into Lu Yao Yao’s arms.
Lu Yaoyao held a bouquet of flowers. Her bridesmaid attire was relatively simple, not overshadowing the bride, but her beauty couldn’t be hidden. Especially at this moment, she had a bright smile on her face, looking down at the nine champagne roses in her hand. The most mesmerizing thing was that gentle smile.
Champagne roses represent my love for you is the greatest happiness in my life, and nine roses symbolize a long and lasting love. This is the promise between Zhuo Yuran and Tinglan, and she also hopes to extend it to herself. Unable to help herself, she looked up from the flowers and toward Gu Ruandong in the guest seats. He was looking at her, or perhaps he had been looking at her all along, with a faint smile on his lips, but Lu YaoYao was absolutely certain that beneath the smile, there was a tenderness overflowing within him.
It was at this moment that Lu Yaoyao realized she had fallen in love with Gu Ruandong. It wasn’t because of physical attraction, but because of him as a whole person, inside and out.
This wedding was actually quite ordinary, with nothing particularly creative about it. It wasn’t the century wedding that everyone had imagined, but it still moved everyone deeply.
Zhuo Yu’an and Shu Tinglan are both people who have gone through many experiences. Now they don’t pay much attention to outward appearances, just like Tinglan said, the wedding only needs you present, genuine feelings are the greatest sincerity of the wedding.
After the ceremony on stage, the couple came down with their bridesmaids and groomsmen to toast the guests.
There were two tables, one with the old comrades of the master and the other with Zhu Hong’s colleagues. Several people, due to their special status, could not come in person.
So it was their families who came, Cheng Zhimin personally led Zhuo Yu’an and Ting Lan over to introduce themselves and offer toasts.
Zuo Yu’an was actually quite good at dealing with them. After all, he had been by his grandfather’s side since childhood. On the other hand, Tinglan felt a bit out of place. The people in this circle were serious and rarely smiled. Luckily, Cheng Zhumin held her hand and introduced her to everyone seriously, openly expressing his approval and liking for her. Past grievances completely disappeared.
TIng Lan’s nervous emotions were replaced by being moved. After coming out from the two tables, she whispered to Cheng Zhi Min
“Thank you, Mom.”
He subtly changed his address, from calling her “Teacher Cheng” to “Grandma” and now sincerely calls her “Mom.” True feelings deserve true reciprocation.
First, she went to her friend Lin Zhixuan’s side. Lin Zhixuan had already stood up and walked over to give her a big hug. It was a little regrettable that the two of them couldn’t be bridesmaids for each other. Their relationship was too good. After the hug, they separated without saying anything, everything was unspoken.
Then came Mr. Sun, whom they hadn’t seen in ages, along with his wife and daughter Sun Yueyue. They were also very excited, never imagining that Tinglan, who had been so down on their luck back then, would have such a happy moment today. Tinglan’s gratitude to their family was needless to say. Just as she was about to raise her glass to toast them, Zhuo Yu’an took it from her: “I’ll do it.”
He also sincerely thanked Lawyer Sun and his family for their care of Tinglan during her pregnancy. Lawyer Sun has been practicing health preservation for many years, never drinking alcohol, but today he was happy and had a small glass.
When she saw Director Xiao, she was still the usual strong woman,
She felt a particular sense of trust towards him, and she stood up first: “Tinglan, congratulations.”
The girl who once timidly and uncertainly entered the law firm is now a wife and a mother, her life filled with blossoms. Director Xiao sincerely rejoices for her, and all of this was within his expectations from the first interview.
“Finally, there was Zhou Ming after a long time. Listening attentively, he realized that he had a girl sitting beside him, intelligent and elegant. Zhou Ming generously introduced the girl to Listening, saying with a hint of purpose: ‘This is my sister, Shu Tinglan, Lawyer Shu.'”
Zhou Ming was a little vengeful. He remembered how she had politely rejected him before when he pursued her, simply by calling him “brother.” So now, he was deliberately doing this.
The woman didn’t mind. She held up her glass and smiled, “Mr. Shu, it’s an honor to meet you. I wish you and your wife a happy and prosperous marriage, and may you grow old together.”
The girl wanted to toast Tinglan and Zhuo Yunan, and Zhou Ming also thoughtfully took the wine glass from her hand and drank it for her.
Tinglan and Zhu Yu’an went through the motions of toasting everyone, but they didn’t actually drink much. After all, with a group of groomsmen and bridesmaids behind them, it was mostly Lu Kuo and Wang Yan who were taking on most of the drinks for them.
It wasn’t until they reached Gu Ruandong’s side that Zhuo Yu’an raised his cup again, personally offering him a toast.
Gu Ruandong’s temperament didn’t quite fit in with the “grand and upright” atmosphere of the banquet hall. He had an air of mystery and coldness about him, sitting there nonchalantly without interacting with anyone.
Zhuo Yu’an’s wedding, he was able to come, and he specially arranged time for it. It was through a game company collaboration that the two came to know each other and developed mutual respect and appreciation. There was no need to say it out loud.
He toasted Zhuo Yujian and Ting Lan with wine. This time, Zhuo Yujian did not let Lu Kuo or >>>
Wang Yan substituted, and drank it herself. The person beside her, Ting Lan, had only taken a few sips today because she was collaborating with Gu Ruandong and also intended to drink it personally. However, Lu YaoYao suddenly stood up from behind her…
“Sister-in-law, you’ve had quite a bit to drink today. I’ll finish this one for you.”
