“I’m just feeling sentimental. My daughter’s all grown up now. She used to be so small, like a tiny bundle. The memory’s still clear as day in my mind, as if it was just yesterday.
“And Man Man grew up so quickly.” Xia Qingwei dabbed at her tears. “She had suffered so much in the past, so she’ll live twice as happily in the future. The two of us seemed so lost in the past, we couldn’t even imagine a day like this.”
Xia Qingwei smiled through her tears. “Who knew that one day, Man Man could marry a man she loves and not be controlled by the Lu family? And her husband loves her, pampers her, and protects her. She’s got a husband who loves her, as well as good in-laws.”
Xia Qingwei looked at Wang Juhuai. “And now, she’s got a good father like you.”
Someone who could be respected and seen as a role model, as her father.
Wang Juhuai held Xia Qingwei’s hand and gently wiped her tears away.
Both turned towards the stage.
Han Zhuoli and Lu Man had finished exchanging their vows and were now swapping rings.
Han Zhuoli did not make any moving promises to the bride like people do in many other weddings.
Vows like they’d treat her well forever and such.
Because there was no need for it.
Han Zhuoli and Lu Man had long since used their actions to prove their feelings for each other, no need for words.
Much less speaking them for others to hear.
But even without words, the guests could feel the love between the two.
Even the netizens watching from the screens knew how good Han Zhuoli treated Lu Man.
The two didn’t need flowery words to make themselves and others believe anything.
Han Zhuoli then kissed Lu Man on the lips afterward.
Things were finally settled, from getting the marriage certificates to the wedding ceremony today.
Han Zhuoli stood up straight, looking at Lu Man.
His wife was standing in front of him.
Han Zhuoli’s gentle smile appeared on his face.
Wei Wucai, the groomsmen, and Yan Zhiqing with the bridesmaid had nothing else to do and went to sit at their tables.
If this was a normal wedding, the groomsmen and bridesmaids would’ve been made to drink.
But looking at the members, no one dared to force anything.
The bridesmaids aside, the groomsmen were all from the eight great families.
Chu Zhaoyang and the others were married and so couldn’t be groomsmen. Hence, Han Zhuoli had picked the remaining bachelors from the eight great families.
They were from the Wei Family, Zhao Family, and two of Han Zhuoli’s brothers.
This was such a magnificent team.
Who’d dare to offend this group of groomsmen?
Did they still want their family fortunes?
The groomsmen couldn’t be offended, but neither could the bridesmaids.
Yan Zhiqing was Yan Beicheng’s younger sister.
Her brother was watching out for her in this room too.
If it was some other female star who liked drinking, maybe they could have persuaded them to do so.
But not now and not here.
Shi Xiaoya was obviously not a candidate either.
Everyone knew of the cherished daughter of the Shi family.
And with Han Zhuoling at the side, a cold glance from him would make anyone shiver and not think of teasing Shi Xiaoya.
The other three girls didn’t have impressive backgrounds.
But the guests were also not tasteless lechers intent on disturbing the bridesmaids.
And with Yan Zhiqing’s and Shi Xiaoya’s protection, the groomsmen wouldn’t sit and do nothing if the ladies got bullied into drinking.
Thus, even those who had some intent on doing so retired their desires.
