Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s wedding was an extravagant and sensational affair.
Long Ming had worked hard to get married to the woman he loved. He wanted the entire world to know that she was his Princess Consort.
Xiao Ying was wearing the wedding dress that Devin had designed. It was originally in a corset style, but Long Ming found out about it and modified it with his domineering attitude.
He did not want her to expose her arms or legs and wanted her to be wrapped up tightly.
However, Xiao Ying was a vain person. She was unwilling to be wrapped up like a dumpling.
In the end, the two of them discussed and he allowed her to expose her back, but the exposed part was covered with lace.
Long Ming then instructed the hairstylist to let Xiao Ying’s hair fall on her back. In this way, with her long hair and veil covering her, no one would not be able to see anything.
It was only after Xiao Ying had finished her makeup and hairstyle that she realized Long Ming’s tricks.
This fellow was sometimes so petty that she was speechless.
The church where the wedding was held was the royal family’s and the ceremony was not open to the public. Xiao Ying held the Duke’s arm and slowly walked onto the red carpet covered with flowers.
Holding an expensive bouquet of flowers in her hands, she slowly walked forward under the gaze of her family, friends, and royal relatives.
Gu Meng and Ye Qing had also come to attend their wedding.
Wan Bao and Little Gugu were their flower boys. The two children were pretty and adorable, and the crowd adored them.
The old lady had already woken up. She was sitting with the Duke’s wife. Looking at Xiao Ying walking on the red carpet, tears appeared in their eyes.
After the granny woke up, she only asked if Liu Yiyi had been caught. When she found out that Liu Yiyi had been imprisoned, the granny said ‘good’ and never mentioned anything about Liu Yiyi ever since!
The granny had always treated Liu Yiyi as her biological granddaughter, but she had not expected that Liu Yiyi would only use her and even want her life!
Liu Yiyi was in jail and had always thought that the old lady would let her off when she woke up. However, she did not know that the old lady felt disgusted when she heard her name.
The old lady now treated Xiao Ying as her biological granddaughter. From time to time, she would go to the Duke’s palace to chat, drink tea, and admire flowers with the Duke’s wife.
The Duke had also expressed his regret in front of the Duke’s wife and Xiao Ying many times. Xiao Ying knew that the Duke had just been anxious to protect his daughter and had been confused for a moment. She did not want the Duke to have a conflict with his wife because of her. With her and Xiao Mai mediating, the couple’s relationship had eased a lot.
Everything was going well.
Xiao Ying looked at Long Ming, who was standing in front. He was wearing a black suit today with a white shirt that he seldom wore inside. The tailored fabric wrapped around his tall figure and his hair was combed up, revealing his handsome forehead. His hands that were hanging by his sides clenched into fists slightly.
The man, who could remain calm even when a mountain collapsed, was undoubtedly nervous now.
Through the veil, Xiao Ying saw the focus and gentleness in the man’s eyes.
Walking in front of him, the Duke handed her hand to Long Ming.
Long Ming held her tightly.
The Duke said a few words, asking Long Ming to love Xiao Ying in the future before he returned to his wife.
The priest began reading the vows.
When Cen Xi, who was sitting in the guest area, heard Xiao Ying and Long Ming say that they were willing, tears fell from her eyes when she saw them wearing their rings.
Countless memories of the past flashed past her mind like an old movie.
Ever since she was young, her sister had had it harder than her. All along, she had been through all kinds of hardships and difficulties, not knowing if she was dead or alive. Her relationship with Long Ming was also very difficult and they had almost parted ways.
But fortunately, they were still together happily.
Qiao Yanze looked at Cen Xi who was crying and his slender hand reached out to hold her slender shoulders.
Qiao Yanze used to hate Xiao Ying to the core. Even after falling in love with Cen Xi, he had the intention to cut off all contact with Xiao Ying. However, slowly, he found out about the truth from back then and let go of the grudge he had against Xiao Ying.
Seeing her marry Long Ming and start a happy life, he was happy for her.
Cen Xi buried her face into Qiao Yanze’s chest and sniffled. “Dear, I’m crying tears of joy.”
Qiao Yanze looked down and kissed the hair on Cen Xi’s head. “I know.”
…
The couple exchanged rings.
The groom took off the bride’s veil and looked at the bride who was as beautiful as a fairy under the exquisite makeup. Countless emotions surged in the groom’s deep eagle-like eyes and eventually, his eyes turned red.
He was excited, happy, emotional and affectionate all at once.
When the priest announced that the groom could kiss the bride, Xiao Ying saw a layer of mist appear in his deep eyes.
He lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips. “Ying, I love you.”
Xiao Ying’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, her voice slightly choked. “Me too.”
…
After the wedding banquet, Xiao Ying was sent to their wedding room.
Long Ming was considerate and had already gotten someone to prepare a lot of her favorite food in the room.
Long Ming had drunk a lot of wine that night, and because of his status, no one dared to force them to consummate their marriage that night.
Long Ming was helped to the door by Mo Tian.
Long Ming raised his hand, gesturing for Mo Tian to leave him there.
It was a Western wedding here, so there was no need to remove the veil or exchange drinks.
After Xiao Ying returned to the wedding room, she changed out of her gown and put on a red nightdress.
She ate some food, brushed her teeth, and sat on the bed.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, she looked toward the door.
A tall man appeared in her sight.
He had taken off his suit jacket, and his tie was no longer tied neatly around his neck. The sleeves of his shirt were rolled up to his arms, revealing his strong and muscular forearms.
He walked in.
His deep eyes landed on her.
Xiao Ying was at a loss from his gaze. She raised her hand and brushed the hair from her cheek. “Why are you looking at me like that?”
The man sat by the bed and held her slender fingers. Looking at the wedding ring on her finger, he lowered his head and kissed it, saying in a low and hoarse voice, “Ying, thank you for marrying me.”
Xiao Ying grabbed his hand and pressed her forehead against his. “Long Ming, I only found out that I was lucky after meeting you. Actually, I still feel like I’m in a dream even now. I’m afraid that once I wake up, all of this will disappear.”
Long Ming looked up at her, a doting smile on his handsome face. “Do you want to pinch yourself like I did last night?”
Xiao Ying looked into his dark eyes. “Pinch me.”
Long Ming raised his hand and pinched her cheek softly. “Silly girl, it’s not a dream. I’ll treat you well in the future and make you as happy as you were today.”
Xiao Ying jumped into Long Ming’s arms and hugged him tightly, tears appearing in her eyes. “Thank you, Long Ming.”
The man’s unhappy snort sounded from above. “Why are you still calling me Long Ming?”
