The next day was Lunar New Year's Eve, which was also the day Qin Shi'an and Chris got married.
The wedding banquet was held in the Dragon and Phoenix Hall of the Peace Hotel. There weren't many relatives from either family, so there were only six tables in total.
The wedding banquet was also arranged according to the couple's wishes, keeping it simple and warm, with all aspects kept to a minimum.
At 10:00 a.m. sharp, Qin Shi'an, dressed in a well-tailored Zhongshan suit and holding a bouquet of flowers, knocked on the door of the suite where the bride was staying.
Upon hearing the sound, the door slowly opened.
Chris stood behind the door, wearing a wedding dress adorned with delicate lace.
On the day she tried on her wedding dress, she didn't let Qin Shi'an go.
Indeed, this decision was the right one!
Upon seeing Chris, who was dressed in her finest attire and breathtakingly beautiful, Qin Shi'an was visibly taken aback.
His gaze fell on her, making him uncomfortable yet unable to look away.
Seeing his expression, Chris smiled.
However, she remained composed for only a few seconds as the door opened.
The moment she saw Qin Shi'an, her beautiful eyes lit up dramatically.
The wedding dress had a very large petticoat, so you had to be very careful with every step you took.
But the next second, Chris lifted the hem of her wedding dress with both hands, like a happy snowball, and rushed towards her groom.
Before the two little ones who were holding her train could react, the train of the wedding dress they were holding was gone in a flash!
Remembering their mission as "flower children," they were taken aback at first, but then quickly strode after them with their short legs.
At this moment, Chris's parents, who were sitting in the main seat, could hardly bear to watch. When other people's daughters got married, they would shed a few tears to express their reluctance.
Theirs is quite something...
"Dad, it's getting late, we should move on to the next step!" Before Chris's parents could finish complaining, Chris urged them in a low voice.
On this joyous occasion, with so many guests still seated in the banquet hall, Chris's father took a deep breath, accepted the Bible, and walked to the center of the stage.
Considering Chinese customs, no pastor was invited to this wedding; he planned to officiate the marriage himself.
Clearing his throat, Chris's father began, "Mr. Qin Shi'an, you are willing to marry Chris as your legal wife, regardless of..."
"Dad, he's willing!"
Chris interrupted, her eyes sparkling as she stared at Qin Shi'an, completely unaware that her father's face was turning dark.
"Chris, let Dad finish what he has to say." Qin Shi'an still respected his father-in-law.
Chris said "Oh," and stood up obediently. "Okay then."
Upon hearing this, Chris's father's eyes widened in shock.
She actually said "Oh?" She didn't argue back, she actually agreed... No one could understand how heartbroken he was as a father at that moment.
He was so lazy that he didn't even bother asking the rest of the questions.
He looked directly at Qin Shi'an and asked, "Are you willing?"
Qin Shi'an nodded solemnly, "I'm willing!"
Then, Chris's father turned to his daughter, who was eager to get married, and asked, "And you?"
"Yes! A million times yes!"
Seeing this, Chris's father simply closed the Bible and said, "Alright, alright, the ceremony is complete! I hereby declare you officially husband and wife."
“Not now, it has been a long time ago,” Chris muttered softly.
They registered in Gaul a year ago, so it's already legal.
Next, witnessed by family and friends, the couple exchanged wedding rings.
Having attended a wedding rehearsal before, Jiang Si clapped her hands and reminded Huo Tingzhou, "The kissing part is coming up soon."
Huo Tingzhou coughed a few times. "Shall we kiss now?"
Jiang Si nodded, "Yes."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chris took a step forward and cupped Qin Shi'an's face in her hands.
Without hesitation, he kissed her.
The audience erupted in good-natured laughter and even more enthusiastic applause.
Seeing this, Jiang Si couldn't help but laugh along.
It is foreseeable that this unique wedding will be talked about by many people afterward.
Huo Tingzhou couldn't help but wonder when his wife would be able to be so "domineering" towards him.
Soon, the newlyweds began the toasting ceremony.
Today is not only their wedding banquet, but in a way, it is also a farewell banquet.
After they finish reporting to their superiors in the capital, they will return to Gaul. They may visit their relatives occasionally in the future, but that will probably be a few years from now.
Thinking about the upcoming separation, Chris was very reluctant to part and talked to Jiang Si for a long time.
If Jiang Si hadn't reminded her not to miss the auspicious time, she would still be immersed in the emotions of parting.
"What auspicious time?" Chris asked, looking bewildered.
Jiang Si blinked. "I think you should ask your Qin Shi'an about this when you get back."
It was getting late, and she should take the children home.
After exchanging a few more words, Jiang Si's gaze fell on Qin Shi'an, who looked back at her openly and honestly.
Jiang Si smiled and said, "I wish you happiness, a long and happy marriage, and a lifetime of love!"
Qin Shi'an paused for a moment, then smiled knowingly, "Thank you!"
All the past events have been completely turned over with this sincere blessing and thank you.
...
When I got home, it was already past 3 p.m.
Jiang Si got up before 4 a.m. this morning to attend the wedding banquet.
Just now at the banquet, I got caught up in the moment and had a small sip of red wine.
Seeing that she was a little dazed, Huo Tingzhou took her directly to the bedroom.
