Yan Shao's overwhelming resentment surged towards Zhu Qianying.
Anyone else would probably be intimidated by Yan Shao's powerful aura. But Zhu Qianying, in the past two or three months, has become adept at dealing with his resentment and has learned how to soothe his emotions.
She turned her head slightly to meet his cold, hard profile, and said softly, "Young Master Yan, I've been waiting for this day for a long time!"
Yan Shao's expression softened slightly, and he snorted again, "That would be best!"
After humming, he finally released his grip on her waist, and the two faced each other.
The host, who had been standing at a distance, saw the newlyweds finally finish their "affectionate" moment and jokingly ran over.
"Alright, now let's welcome our handsome groom to give a speech. Let's listen to how this amazing and beautiful love story of the bride and groom came to fruition!"
Yan Shao took Zhu Qianying's hand, picked up the microphone, and began to speak to the guests with an air of nonchalance.
"As you all know, I met Ying'er during a rock climbing activity, and I fell in love with her at first sight!"
Yan Shao spoke with heartfelt sincerity. After he finished speaking, he turned around and gave Zhu Qianying a gentle smile, which made her heart pound wildly!
If she weren't involved, she would absolutely believe this romantic story, which is like a real-life version of the Prince Charming and Cinderella tale.
"She is beautiful and intelligent, and also a very cute girl. As everyone knows, my parents had me late in life, and I am their only child. But since she came into our lives, not only have I gained a lover, but my parents have also gained a loving daughter. I am so fortunate that the person who became my partner is Zhu Qianying. I am also very grateful to the god of fate for sending such a lovely and outstanding person to my side. Thank you again to every guest for coming and for your blessings!"
Yan Shao's speech was extremely concise, but he said everything that needed to be said. It wasn't overly sentimental, but those around him could still feel his appreciation and love for the bride from his simple words.
During his speech, he not only held her hand tightly, but also turned to smile at her from time to time, a smile that was extremely doting and gentle.
The guests who had initially come with a schadenfreude attitude now abandoned their gloating and instead wore expressions of envy.
Only Zhu Qianying, the person directly involved, knew that his words were false, and his smile was also fake!
After Yan Shao, who was wearing a mask, finished his heartfelt confession, he bowed slightly to the audience as a way of expressing his gratitude!
"The groom truly loves and dotes on the bride; it makes my heart flutter!" the emcee joked, taking the microphone. "Now, let's have the bride share her sweet love story with the groom!"
Zhu Qianying took the microphone, looked up and met Yan Shao's gaze before slowly speaking.
"Just as he said, it was love at first sight for us. Of course, I'm not as good as he described, and he is a very capable and reliable man. He treats me very well and spoils me in everything. I'm grateful that he can accept me as I am, and I'm also grateful to all the guests here today. With your blessings, we will continue to be happy. Thank you!"
After Zhu Qianying finished speaking, she also bowed slightly to the audience.
While they were giving their speeches, a slideshow of their wedding photos taken at the horse farm, by the sea, and beside a mountain stream was playing on the large screen behind the stage.
Those dreamlike photos made the bride and groom look like a divine couple, envied by all.
Therefore, most of the guests present believed that the newlyweds on stage were indeed truly in love.
Only the two people involved truly understand that this marriage had nothing to do with love!
However, even though both parties understood the true nature of the marriage, when exchanging rings and the officiant asked each other if they were to "take her (him) as their wife (husband)," they both answered without hesitation, "I do!"
Even after exchanging rings, the groom, at the request of the guests, gave the bride a long and passionate French kiss!
These illusions of happiness pleased Zhu Qianying greatly. She could clearly see the relieved and reassured smiles on the faces of her mother and sister below the stage as they witnessed her and Yan Shao's harmonious interactions.
After the rings were exchanged, the host announced loudly, "Next, it's time for the single people to catch the bouquet! Everyone, are you ready?"
Whether by design or coincidence, Zhu Qianying, surrounded by a large group of people, turned her back and threw a bouquet of flowers behind her, which actually landed steadily in her younger sister Zhu Qianyu's arms.
Zhu Qianying turned around and saw her younger sister holding the flower ball blankly, seemingly not having reacted yet, while Ji Huan, standing to the side, smiled and hugged her and kissed her.
"Ji Huan, are you going to propose on the spot?" Although Zhu Qianying was joking, she really hoped that the two of them could settle down as soon as possible.
After all, a good man like Ji Huan is truly a rare find!
Ji Huan, who was being pressured into marriage by his sister-in-law in public, looked at Zhu Qianyu with a doting smile.
"Xiaoyu, do you want to?"
Zhu Qianyu glared at her older sister first, then blushed and shook her head, "We're still young..."
One is only eighteen, and the other is only twenty-one; they are indeed too young.
"Okay! I'll owe you that for now!"
Ji Huan made a promise to Zhu Qianyu in front of his sister-in-law and both sets of parents, and then, without any hesitation, kissed her on the lips in front of a large group of guests.
Then, everyone who should and shouldn't know found out that not only did the fifth young lady of the Zhu family marry well, but the sixth young lady also found a rich and powerful second-generation heir!
Ji Huan made a promise to Wan Zhu Qian Yu, then walked up to Yan Shao with his lover, who was holding a bouquet of flowers, and extended his hand to him.
"Brother-in-law, I wish you and my sister a long and happy life together!"
"Thanks!"
Yan Shao reached out and shook hands with him, but he was secretly a little annoyed. Why were all the men in the Ji family so nosy?
First it was President Ji Rui, then his son, the Second Young Master Ji, who were both hinting and directing him to treat Zhu Qianying better. What does this mean?
Shouldn't Yan Shao's wife be under his protection?
When did it become the turn of the men in the Ji family to protect them?
Of course, these unpleasant feelings were quickly forgotten, after all, the wedding was still going on.
When toasting, the newlyweds first toasted the elders from the Yan and Tong families, and then went to the table of Chen Jing and the Ji family, who were the bride's family.
Only then did they walk to the table where the Zhu family was sitting.
Zhu Qianying held Yan Shao's arm, looking slightly nervous.
Originally, she was very worried that her scumbag father and his concubines' children would cause a scene at the wedding. But for the time being, the Zhu family was much more well-behaved than she had imagined.
Not only did they not argue or make a scene, but when they saw her and Yan Shao go over to offer a toast, Zhu Zhizhou, as her father-in-law, actually stood up first with his wine glass, completely without any airs.
