“Dad—” Xiao Yaojing pulled her hands out of PA Wen’s grasp . She knelt down and held her father’s hands as she cried . Her tears drenched her cheeks and her makeup was smeared .
At the same time, Wen Tao knelt in front of Mr . Xiao and pulled Xiao Yaojing into his embrace . He had never seen her cry so much . He was only now realizing how heavy and serious Mr . Xiao’s request was .
He promised himself he would devote his entire life to love Xiao Yaojing and to become the second man who loved her the most in this world .
Ye Yuwei looked downcast, feeling happy for her best friend but sad because of the tender display .
When she lowered her head, Gu Juexi leaned over and put the sapphire necklace around her neck . It was the only thing Ye Shu had left for her .
Ye Yuwei was caught by surprise as she felt the sudden cold of the chain around her neck . She stared at the sapphire as it shone in front of her eyes . She couldn’t tell if she was feeling sad or grateful .
She was sad because she had never met her own father, Ye Shu .
She was grateful because Gu Juexi was there with her: the man who would always love her .
Ye Yuwei composed herself when Ye Xicheng returned to their seats with Xixi . Xixi hopped onto Gu Juexi’s lap and asked her father to take a picture of her . She wanted to show Yuan Mo the cute pink dress she was wearing today .
Ye Xicheng sat quietly beside Ye Yuwei, an obedient boy that melted others’ hearts .
Mr . Xiao’s eyes were red and watery when he returned to his seat .
The guests were deeply moved by the scene . After Mr . Xiao took his seat, Mrs . Xiao grabbed his hand . Nothing was more emotional than giving a daughter away .
Luckily, the emcee did an amazing job of warming up the crowd . Within the short period of time that Xiao Yaojing went to touch up her makeup, the emcee had hyped up the mood and energized the guests . He was telling jokes and the hall was shaking with the guests’ laughter .
Ye Yuwei glanced at the couple standing on the stage . She felt genuinely happy for her friend .
Every little girl dreamed of walking down the aisle with her father who would give her away to the love of her life . She didn’t have a father though . During the first wedding with Gu Juexi, she walked down the aisle alone, walking towards a man who had no intention of marrying her .
There was no one there to ask Gu Juexi to treat her nicely .
Ye Xicheng reached out and grasped his mommy’s hand while looking up at her .
Ye Yuwei smiled warmly at her son . She patted his head and said, “Great job, my dear . You led your sister well too, I’m very proud of you . ”
Ye Xicheng smiled shyly, feeling proud and ecstatic from his mother’s praise .
The couple exchanged their wedding rings . It was an exclusive Darry Ring 1 that a man could only buy once in his lifetime . It was also Wen Tao’s promise to Xiao Yaojing .
After the exchange of rings, the couple kissed . Since that was also the end of the bridesmaids’ and best men’s duty, Wen Shan got off the stage and sat next to Ye Xicheng .
“What’s wrong?” Ye Yuwei whispered discreetly, not wanting to alert the elders .
Wen Shan knew today was her brother’s big day, so she had to put on a happy face throughout the ceremony . Now Ye Yuwei had triggered her emotions, and her disguise slowly crumpled .
Instantly, Ye Yuwei got to her feet and left the table, taking Wen Shan with her .
The lounge was empty and quiet at the moment .
Wen Shan leaned against the wall with her downcast eyes, fidgeting her fingers .
Ye Yuwei wanted to be straightforward but she was afraid of upsetting Wen Shan, so she thought hard about what to say .
However, before she could figure out what to say, Wen Shan dropped her head on Ye Yuwei’s shoulder and cried . Her tears flowed endlessly, a stark contrast to the wide smile she had on stage just a few minutes ago .
