Chapter 151 Handover Ceremony
The plane taxied and took off in one go.
Su Mi looked outside and saw that the Su Mansion was getting farther and farther away.
I couldn't control the accumulated emotions, and the corners of my eyes were still wet.
Xiao Xuanjin sat next to her and could naturally feel her emotional changes.
But what does this have to do with him? He thought so in his heart, but he said unmercifully, "Do you need me to stay away?"
Su Mi sniffed and turned back, her eyelashes fluttering. "What?"
"Aren't you going to cry?"
"No, I'm much better now." It was just that my emotions got the better of me just now. I'll be fine after a while.
"It's over so soon?"
He spoke in an outsider's tone. Su Mi had known this would happen, so it was easy for him to accept it. He replied politely, "Well, thank you for your trouble."
Xiao Xuanjin said nothing more and closed his eyes to rest.
Su Mi felt that such a conversation was really dull, and perhaps the current silence was suitable for them.
He leaned his head back and fell asleep.
…
Their next stop was the Yosel Church in Sheng State, where the wedding ceremony would also be held.
This church has a thousand-year history and its architectural style is Romanesque and Gothic.
The interior of the church is decorated entirely with flowers, with Roman columns and classic flower vases, exquisite medieval tables, and a natural combination of murals.
The layout maintains a classic solemnity while retaining warmth and romance.
After Su Mi arrived, she went to the lounge to change into her wedding dress and make some changes to her makeup.
The main dress has a long train, with silver-white as the main color, lace embroidery, and slim princess sleeves and neckline design, highlighting the graceful figure.
The crown on her head is inlaid with 2,199 diamonds, each of which has been carefully carved and arranged in a staggered pattern. A veil as thin as a cicada's wing is fixed behind the crown, gently fluttering and cascading down, with a circle of sparkling crystals on the edge that sparkles like stars.
Before the ceremony began, Su Mi and his father stood backstage waiting to go on stage.
"Daddy, are you nervous?"
I touched my father's slightly rough palm and found it was sweaty.
"Daddy has seen all kinds of big scenes, why would he be nervous?" Su Boren refused to admit it and was as arrogant as ever.
Su Mi didn't want to expose him, "Yes... I was nervous, I said something wrong."
"You girl."
Thinking about officially handing over his precious daughter to his son-in-law soon, Su Boren's heart was filled with emotion.
"Qingqing, will you blame Dad?"
"Why do you blame me?"
"I blame myself for marrying you off so early."
"That's of course strange, Daddy, why don't you take me away now." Su Mi said this as a joke on purpose.
When Su Boren heard this, he was really angry and said, "What are you talking about? Xiao Jin is still waiting for us."
Hearing him mention Xiao Xuanjin, Su Mi snorted unhappily, tilted his head, raised his chin, and puffed his cheeks, "I see, in your eyes now, your son-in-law is more important than your daughter."
"My dear, what are you talking about? Of course Daddy loves you the most, but Daddy can't keep you at home forever. You have to have your own life."
At this point, Su Boren touched her head and said, "Besides, Xiaojin is a good child, Daddy is relieved."
Are you relieved? But it's only three years. After three years, her marriage with Xiao Xuanjin will end.
Just at this moment, the door in front of me opened.
"Dad, it's time for us to go in."
"Well, let's go." Su Boren raised his arms and waited for her.
Su Mi affectionately took his arm, and the two of them walked inside together.
The high heels stepped on the soft carpet, step by step towards the finish line.
Xiao Xuanjin stood at the finish line, having changed into a white suit. It was rare to see him wearing white, and his usual stern and cold temperament was now blended with a bit of elegance and gentleness. Just standing there, he exuded an air of calm and nobility, like a humble young man walking out of a mural.
Following in their father's footsteps, they soon arrived in front of him.
Su Boren held her hand and placed her hand in Xiao Xuanjin's palm, completing the handover.
"Xiao Jin, Qingqing is in your hands. Be good to her in the future."
"Well, thanks, Dad."
Su Boren patted him on the shoulder and then walked off the stage.
Su Mi's hand was held tightly by Xiao Xuanjin. He lowered his eyes to look at her. In his vision, she was holy and noble. Her cold and beautiful facial features, because of the harmony of the wedding dress, had a sense of extreme sacredness and elegance. It slowly overlapped with the picture he had imagined when he was young. "Very beautiful."
That was his long-awaited dream and the belief he had held on to for many years.
The long-cherished wish of being faithful to one person has been fulfilled.
Unfortunately, the faith has been lost and it is ultimately just a pipe dream.
Su Mi looked at the obsolete and complicated light in his eyes, and felt as if he had invisibly broken through the defense line somewhere in his heart.
She took his arm and said, "Let's go."
The pastor was still waiting for them out front.
"Um."
They exchanged vows in the presence of two pastors.
Exchange rings.
When Xiao Xuanjin put the platinum diamond ring on her ring finger, he whispered to her, "Su Su."
Su Mi looked up in a daze, only to see that his smile was very faint, as if what he just said was just an illusion.
When the ceremony was over and they walked out of the church, many clusters of pink and white balloons were released simultaneously outside, floating in the air, and scattered streamers of light entangled them.
Su Mi turned to look at Xiao Xuanjin. He was looking up at the balloons in the sky with a stern expression, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Looking at the ring on his ring finger, it was the same style as the one on her hand, closely connecting their current relationship, like an invisible bridge, bringing them closer.
…
The dinner party was held at Elva Castle.
This is also the new house that the Xiao family prepared for the young couple, and they will stay here tonight.
Su Mi changed into a burgundy fishtail dress. The stylist parted her hair and tied it back in a low bun, which was subtle and gentle.
After she came out of the dressing room, she saw Xiao Xuanjin leaning against the wall. He had changed into a crimson velvet palace-style suit. The dark color made his temperament seem more restrained and heavy.
Before Su Mi got close, he could smell alcohol on him. It seemed that he had drunk a little too much during the toast at the lunch today.
He could obviously drink less, but he couldn't control himself.
But Su Mi also knew that he had a good alcohol tolerance and would not get drunk so easily.
Her high heels made a clacking sound on the shiny floor. She stepped forward and stood opposite him. "Why are you here?"
Xiao Xuanjin raised his head and lifted his eyelids. His dark pupils were coated with a layer of warmth under the soft light. His voice was hoarse, "Is it over?"
"Well, it's changed."
Xiao Xuanjin looked down at the red dress that outlined her beautiful figure and asked, "Can you walk faster?"
Su Mi thought that this kind of fishtail skirt should be more ladylike, and the steps should not be too big because it is gathered at the knees.
"Sure, I'll walk slower..."
Before she could finish her words, she was pushed against the wall by a strong force. When she looked up, the man was already pressing down on her fiercely, his breath lingering over her. He was kissing her in a not very gentle manner, snatching away her breath.
