Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The cute and arrogant pair of kids had attracted many people’s attention the moment they showed up, especially girls. If not for the fact that these girls were still mindful of maintaining their image in public, they would have already taken out their phones and taken photos of them from various angles.
The two little flower girls on An Yue’s side were naturally very cute as well. As the Zhao family and An Yue’s side did not have other children besides Joy, Nie Yunfan volunteered to find two children from his family who were about the same age as Joy.
Most of the children at this age looked very cute, but maybe because it was these two children’s first time participating in a big event like this, so they were a little nervous. Compared to Joy and Mu Wanting, they seemed a little tense.
The distance from the entrance was not long, though the two grooms who had been waiting for a long time felt like their brides at the other end had taken a lifetime to walk toward them.
Their hearts beat to the top speed at the moment when the two girls finally stood in front of them. The moment they extended their hands to hold their brides, no one knew how nervous the two grooms, who had always been described as young talents in the eyes of countless people, were.
The two elders’ stood aside and each pulled down the hand they were holding on their arms and placed it cautiously on the grooms’ hand.
Zhao Shunrong’s expression was as cold and stoic as usual. Though if you looked carefully, you would find that when he handed Zhao Youlin’s hand over to Mu Tingfeng, there was a touch of reluctance in his eyes.
“Treat her well from now on.” He expressed the complete expectation of a father with just a few words.
Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flickered slightly. He looked at this man, who was as taciturn as him, always cared and concerned about his loved ones silently, and promised in a serious manner, “Don’t worry.”
On the other hand, with An Yue’s hand in his, he was looking at An Yue’s face that resembled someone’s face. When he thought about once he handed her hand over to this man, she would officially become someone else’s family, he suddenly felt a little discomfort.
When Nie Xingzhi was feeling conflicted and lost in thought, Han Yichen had already noticed that he was being weird, as he frowned and called, “Mr. Nie?”
Nie Xingzhi suddenly woke up. After seeing Han Yichen’s unhappy expression and An Yue’s puzzled look as she stared at him with her eyes widened, he finally came around and realized that he was being weird. He held back the unexplainable feeling he felt and slowly handed An Yue’s hand over to Han Yichen before he stood aside.
An Yue did not notice his momentary unusual reaction, as she walked shyly and joyfully to Han Yichen’s side and stood side by side with Han Yichen in front of the officiant.
After a long and formulaic speech, it was finally time for the climax of the wedding ceremony as the pastor guided the two couples to recite their wedding vows.
“Mr. Mu Tingfeng, will you take Ms. Zhao Youlin to be your lawful wife? Will you love her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health and forsaking all others to keep only unto her so long as you both shall live?”
“Ms. Zhao Youlin, will you take Mr. Mu Tingfeng to be your lawful husband? Will you love him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health and forsaking all others to keep only unto him so long as you both shall live?”
“Mr. Zhao Yichen, will you take Ms. An Yue to be your lawful wife? Will you love her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health and forsaking all others to keep only unto her so long as you both shall live?”
“Ms. An Yue, will you take Mr. Zhao Yichen to be your lawful husband? Will you love him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health and forsaking all others to keep only unto him so long as you both shall live?”
The four questions were roughly the same, which had the same content.
The two couples smiled at each other in silence and said the same answer, one after the other, “I will.”
“You may exchange your wedding ring now.”
With the pastor’s reminder, Joy and another flower girl each held a pair of beautiful diamond rings and walked up to the four of them.
Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin smiled lightly and looked at their son. Mu Tingfeng was the first to reach his hand to the ring box and took out a ring with an embedded gorgeous diamond. Then, he held Zhao Youlin’s hand and put it on the ring finger of Zhao Youlin’s left hand. His actions were gentle, as if he was holding something precious..
Zhao Youlin looked up at Mu Tingfeng as she took out another ring from the ring box and put it on Mu Tingfeng’s ring finger on his left hand, just like what Mu Tingfeng had just done.
Mu Tingfeng looked at the rings on his and Zhao Youlin’s ring fingers. His eyes flickered slightly. Then, he lowered his head against Zhao Youlin’s forehead and said in a deep voice, “You are mine at last.”
Zhao Youlin looked up to meet his eyes that were full of reflection of herself. The corner of her lips curled and she said, “Likewise.”
After the exchange of rings on Zhao Youlin’s side, Han Yichen and An Yue also put the rings that had been carefully prepared on each other’s hands.
The couples just stood facing each other. A string of bubbles began to float around them, it was so sweet that other people could not bear to look at them.
Nie Yunfan was tired of watching from the side. His eyes flickered and he suddenly shouted loudly, “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!”
Nie Yunfan’s shout pulled the crowd’s wandering mind back. One by one they all laughed and cheered together with Nie Yunfan.
In an instant, the whole church was flooded with the joyous cries of the people.
Zhao Youlin and the three others were stunned for a second. Then, they subconsciously turned their heads to look at the one opposite of them. Looking into each other’s eyes, without saying anything, catering to the loud shouts of the crowd, the brides and the grooms began to get closer to each other.
At first, it was just a light kiss on the lips, just like when they first confirmed their relationship. They were cautious, obviously wanting to get to know each other better, but were afraid to scare each other because of their recklessness.
After the first try, the grooms slowly became more assertive. They were no longer satisfied with light kiss, as they started kissing their brides deeper.
They were so focused on their kiss that the rest of the world faded away. They had no idea that in the eyes of others, they were like a beautiful painting, serene and harmonious. No one wanted to interrupt them.
And of course, this was only what the adults thought. As for Joy, who was still holding the ring box beside them and watching his parents kiss, all he could think of was his parents were kissing each other and how could they not kiss him too!
“Daddy, Mummy, I want a kiss too.” Joy’s call broke the silence within the church and brought the kissing couples back to their senses.
Only then did An Yue realize that she was kissing Han Yichen in front of those little children. Her cheeks turned blood red..
