Chapter 78 Wedding
The solemn oath echoed throughout the banquet hall.
"Whether in health or sickness, youth or old age, wealth or poverty, success or failure, are you willing to stand shoulder to shoulder with your bride, share the joys and sorrows, support each other, never leave her, and love her for the rest of your life?"
Cheng Lu's eyes flushed as she said to Wang Hao, "I do."
After repeating the oath once more, Wang Hao said, "I do."
The two sides exchanged rings.
After exchanging rings, Cheng Lu, wearing a wedding dress, and Wang Hao, wearing a groom's suit, kissed in the sea of flowers.
Lin Shanshan, who was standing aside, was already crying.
Seeing the two people hugging each other on the stage, Jiang Jibai recalled the first time he met Cheng Lu.
He had bangs and a quirky smile, and when he saw her he greeted her in a familiar manner.
"Hello, my name is Cheng Lu, and I'm studying biotechnology."
The smiling face of the girl with innocent eyes and eyebrows was frozen on her face, and the taste of the old times was lingering in her memory.
Time passed by in a flash, and the girl in front of her who had accompanied her through those green years had become someone else's wife and found her own home.
She was smiling happily, her smile was so bright and brilliant.
Jiang Jibai's nose suddenly felt sore and his eyes became moist.
Cheers and boos from the audience rose one after another, and the noisy sound filled the entire banquet.
Everyone's eyes were on the newlyweds cuddling each other on the stage.
Only Gu Moyang's eyes fell on Jiang Jibai, who was standing quietly aside and willing to be a background board.
The noisy voices of the people present were just her foil.
No matter where she stood, she was the protagonist in his eyes.
She looked very beautiful today. Although her dress was not as stunning as the bride's wedding dress, it still captured all his attention effortlessly.
The lotus pink dress complements her skin tone very well, and the tailor-made size outlines her exquisite figure.
It was the thin and bony figure with the back that made him frown.
Jiang Jibai's body was sideways, and Gu Moyang's eyes slid across her delicate eyebrows. Seeing her lowered her eyes, his heart tightened.
She seemed to be crying.
Gu Moyang couldn't help but tighten his grip on the armrest of the chair.
Are you thinking about something sad? Why are you crying?
The banquet hall was filled with laughter and joy, and everyone's attention was focused on the happy newlyweds.
Gu Moyang's thoughts wandered, and he recalled the events of six years ago.
The memory of that day kept replaying in his mind, and guilt once again surged in his heart.
If nothing had happened that day, would everything have gone on as he had planned?
Maybe they are the newlyweds standing on the stage at this moment, or maybe they have already been married and even have a lovely child.
I don’t know if it’s the atmosphere that’s creating this feeling, but when Gu Moyang thought of these scenes, his eyes felt warm.
But will there really be such a day? Gu Moyang couldn't help but feel scared.
He was afraid that her heart would never beat for him again.
After the ring exchange, the next step is the bouquet throwing.
At this stage, all the single people present wanted to share in the good fortune. At the emcee's announcement, many single men and women stood up from the guest seats and stood behind the bride and groom.
Lin Shanshan had already chosen a position with Liu Yanan and Jiang Jibai, and she was rubbing her hands, ready to go.
In order to be more sure of getting the bouquet, she shouted to Cheng Lu who was standing in the front, "Cheng Lulu! I'll throw it to your left and behind. Do you hear me?"
“…”
When Lin Shanshan shouted, everyone looked in their direction.
Jiang Jibai instantly became so socially frustrated that he didn't want to stand with Lin Shanshan anymore.
Someone complained: "They grabbed the bouquet through a backdoor."
Lin Shanshan wasn't shy either: "If you can open it, I won't say a word."
Ji An and Sun Yiran, two single guys, also wanted to join in the fun and share in the joy. Sun Yiran glanced at Gu Moyang, who was also a single guy.
"Aren't you going to share in the joy?"
Gu Moyang sat still, the figure in his sight blocked. He looked away irritably, not in high spirits: "No, I'm just grabbing the bouquet, not the bridesmaid."
Sun Yiran snorted, "But you can grab the bouquet with the bridesmaid."
Seeing that he still didn't move, the two of them ignored him and stood at the end of the rows of people.
"Three, two, one!"
The bouquet was thrown from Cheng Lu's hand, drawing a perfect parabola in the air.
Everyone dispersed.
Lin Shanshan looked at the bouquet flying far away and complained, "Cheng Lulu, are you Popeye the Sailor? Why don't you throw it to Mars?"
Cheng Lu scratched her head embarrassedly, "You didn't tell me how hard to use."
Lin Shanshan was so angry that she wanted to roll her eyes, while Wang Hao hugged Cheng Lu and smiled.
I don’t know which lucky dog grabbed the bouquet, but I just saw a crowd of people running over to grab it.
Jiang Jibai and the others did not join in because it was inconvenient for them to wear high heels and long skirts.
Everyone in the crowd made way for him, and a tall and straight man, commanding the entire banquet's attention, slowly walked towards this side with flowers in his hands.
Seeing Gu Moyang walk over, Ji An complained to Sun Yiran and told him the truth, "What kind of luck is this? Even if he sits there and doesn't move, the bouquet will fall into his arms."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Lu lowered her head almost into her chest.
Lin Shanshan, who was standing by, glared at her unhappily and scolded her for being so clumsy.
Gu Moyang was dressed more formally than yesterday, in a straight and elegant double-breasted black suit with a dark grey vest underneath and a dark striped tie neatly tied over a light grey shirt.
His hair was parted in the middle and pulled back, revealing the man's neat face and handsome features.
His eyes fell on Jiang Jibai persistently and devoutly, and he held the flowers in his hands in front of his chest and walked towards her with steady steps.
"Fuck! This is too handsome!" Gu Mo stood on tiptoe to get a better look. "Who is this? Your brother's friend? How come I didn't know he had such a handsome friend?"
Wang Mian pulled her flat, covered her eyes with his hands, and said in a cold tone, "Mrs. Wang, no matter how handsome he is, it has nothing to do with you. You are a married woman."
Gu Mo pulled his hand away. "What's wrong with me just admiring her? To be fair, my sister-in-law's friends are all pretty too. You can look at them. I won't stop you."
Wang Mian: “…”
Amidst the dense gazes from all around, their eyes met, and Jiang Jibai's heartbeat became inexplicably rapid.
The noise and cheers around them were getting louder and louder, and the atmosphere reached its peak. It seemed that the two of them were about to become the protagonists of the banquet hall.
What exactly does he want to do?
Her heart began to panic inexplicably because of his next unknown move.
Gu Moyang stepped forward and handed her the bouquet. He lowered his head and looked at her with a gentle gaze. "Don't you want it? This is for you."
There was another round of booing from the crowd.
Jiang Jibai lowered his eyes and fixed his gaze on the bunch of gorgeous pink and white roses.
The pink rose symbolizes first love.
Her breathing was a little stagnant, and her fingers clenched, but she didn't answer.
Lin Shanshan's eyes were almost rolling up to the sky. She snorted, "Can you please stop pretending to be affectionate? This flower has been tarnished by your dog paws. Who would still want it?"
As soon as Lin Shanshan said this, everyone felt that the relationship between these people seemed not that simple, and the discussion increased instead of decreasing.
Seeing that she was reluctant to take the flowers from his hand, the light in Gu Moyang's eyes dimmed and he slowly took the bouquet back.
At this time, the emcee broke the slightly awkward atmosphere, "Then we would like to invite the gentleman who grabbed the bouquet to come on stage and give his blessing to the bride and groom. Everyone, please give him a round of applause!"
Gu Moyang had never attended a wedding, so he didn't know there was such a segment where people had to grab the bouquet and give speeches.
But he has seen all kinds of storms and waves. Although he is not good at expressing himself, this speech does not need to be prepared in advance.
Gu Moyang adjusted his mood and walked towards the stage.
