246 Wedding
Xi Wen asked, “Apply what ointment?” She glanced at him quickly. Her heart was beating so fast that it hurt her eardrums and her thoughts were in a mess.
“I’ll show you the picture.” Shen Yi swiped open his phone and asked her to add him on WeChat.
Seeing her add him on Wechat, he was secretly joyful. “Which row do you sit in? I’ll help you over.”
“Second row on the left.” She smelled the faint smell of tobacco on him and her heart was pounding.
Shen Yi wanted nothing more than to make this journey longer.
Unfortunately, the journey would end no matter how long it was. He stopped in front of her seat and asked, “Did you come alone?”
Xi Wen sat down unhurriedly. “No.” She pointed at the couple talking to Pei Qisheng. “My parents are over there.”
“Brother Yi.” Chu Yuzhou, who suddenly appeared, grabbed his arm. “The wedding is about to begin.”
As the best man, they were about to go on stage. In order to prepare, Shen Yi did not talk to Xi Wen much and walked to the back.
It was almost eleven o’clock when the wedding march started.
The invited guests sat down one after another and stopped chatting as they looked at the stage surrounded by white roses. They waited quietly for the groom to walk up to the stage.
Pei Zhi was wearing a high-end suit. His white shirt was ironed to the point of no creases and buttoned to the top.
Just by standing there, he attracted the attention of all the guests.
He looked straight ahead. When that graceful figure appeared, the aura around him suddenly softened.
“Bang—Bang—”
The balloons hanging on both sides of the long corridor exploded, and countless rose petals fluttered in the breeze to welcome the bride.
The fragrance of flowers spread. Lin Jiao held Lin Hongyuan’s arm and stepped onto the long corridor filled with flower petals.
Her main wedding was decorated with diamonds and light-colored embroidery. The lines from her swan neck to her waist were smooth and beautiful. She looked like a girl who had walked out of an oil painting.
She looked at Pei Zhi through the white veil with a smile on her beautiful face, making everything around her seem like a background.
Pei Zhi went forward to hold his beloved’s hand.
He rubbed her knuckles, and an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart.
He could not hear anything around him. His eyes were filled with the woman he had loved for many years and he had even forgotten to exchange the rings.
“Kiss, kiss!” The best men standing on the right began to cheer, mixed with applause.
Lin Jiao, who had her white veil lifted, clenched the bouquet and looked at the face that was magnified in front of her, feeling a little nervous.
The moment their lips touched, Pei Zhi felt as if a feather had tickled his heart. Even the hand holding the back of her head was trembling.
“Wifey.” He pressed his forehead against hers and whispered in a voice only she could hear, “I love you.”
His words sounded like mellow wine, making her intoxicated.
“I love you too.” She kissed him on the lips again and listened to the blessings in her ear.
He held her waist and did not hesitate to release his love. Amidst their intertwined breaths, he could not bear to leave.
At this moment, he thought of that summer.
Under the bright moonlight, she bumped into his arms and started their story.
He clearly remembered a sentence he saw in the book she was reading one evening.
“I yearn for someone to love me fiercely until death and understand that love is as powerful as death.”
He thought that he would spend the rest of his life proving it.
He would love her fiercely until his death.
