Chapter 53 "Jiang An, we are husband and wife now..."
Several days of heavy snow have caused temperatures to fluctuate between -10°C and 25°C.
The wedding preparations for the Wen and Jiang families began half a month in advance. From the 10th to the 20th, anyone who purchased products from the Wen family or cooperated with them would receive the maximum discounts according to internal regulations. Meanwhile, the Jiang family broadcast news of Wen Lingshuang and Jiang An's wedding in a CBD building in a first-tier city. In an instant, the domestic online community was abuzz with excitement, and almost everyone knew that this powerful family alliance was about to have the grandest wedding in history.
Outsiders joined in the fun, and so did those within the industry.
Many people were asking Wen Lingshuang about the details of her wedding, such as how she had been getting along with Jiang An these past few months, whether she had noticed anything amiss, or whether Jiang An had a bad temper and might bully her. Although they were all trying to understand her perspective, she felt that her friends' words were biased against Jiang An, influenced by public opinion.
Jiang An is doing well.
That's how she always replies.
Whether others believe it or not is another matter.
On the eve of their wedding, Wen Lingshuang made a video call to Jiang An. The two hadn't video-called each other for about ten days. When the call connected, they both looked at each other in silence.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang An pointed to something behind her and asked, "What's that?"
Wen Lingshuang looked in the direction he pointed, her face slightly flushed, and said, "Oh, that's what my mom prepared for me, saying it was for my wedding night. It's so ugly..."
Jiang An raised an eyebrow slightly. "Come closer, let me take a look."
"Don't look at it anymore, it's awful."
"Let me see."
Helpless, Wen Lingshuang got up and walked to the clothes rack. She zoomed in with the camera, revealing a bright red silk nightgown. It was a simple slip dress with no particular design. She disdainfully tugged at the waistline and said, "Isn't it ugly?"
Judging solely from this dress, it certainly doesn't suit Jiang An's taste.
But if you say it was worn by Wen Lingshuang, that's a different story.
Red is gaudy and vulgar.
Only she could suppress such vulgarity.
"It looks great." He sat in his office wearing gold-rimmed glasses. "Wear it for me tomorrow."
Wen Lingshuang brought the camera back, "You're getting married tomorrow, and you're still in the office?"
"I'm just tidying up some documents and will be back in a bit." Jiang An pushed up his glasses. "This wedding is indoors, so I couldn't fulfill your wish for an outdoor beach wedding. Consider it a debt I owe you."
"Don't you owe me a lot?" Wen Lingshuang said arrogantly. "The time you pinched me was much worse than this."
Jiang An: "..."
He smiled helplessly.
It seems that incident really left her with a deep psychological scar, which has almost become a mantra for her, something she brings up whenever she has the chance.
Jiang An was not averse to it.
I just thought she was cute.
He gently comforted her, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, Miss. You should rest now, you'll be very tired tomorrow."
Wen Lingshuang blinked. "You're in the office, right?"
Jiang An nodded. "Yes."
"Then kiss me, kiss me, and I'll get some rest."
He told her to rest well, but in the end, he had to coax her.
Jiang An chuckled softly, zooming in on the camera to reveal his handsome features. Finally, he gently kissed the camera lens, saying, "Good boy."
Through the lens, Wen Lingshuang seemed to have actually been pecked and kissed by him, and she said contentedly, "Okay, I'm hanging up."
After hanging up the video call, Wen Lingshuang lay back on the bed, turning to look at the snow scene outside the French windows. For the first time, she found it hard to fall asleep. She looked forward to tomorrow's weather, to tomorrow's wedding, and... to seeing Jiang An again.
Sleepiness gradually crept in, and I drifted off to sleep.
Around 4 a.m., before dawn, the stylist entered the Wen family home in an orderly manner. After eating the bridal breakfast prepared by the Wen family, the stylist began to prepare for the wedding. Wen Lingshuang was groggily pulled up by Ashui and dragged to the makeup table to do her makeup. Her mind was extremely muddled.
All she could hear was the team's stylists talking non-stop, while Ah Shui chattered on beside her.
One moment he would say he was reluctant to part with her, the next he would tell her to have some breakfast, and then he would bring her the bird's nest soup he had prepared. For several hours, Ah Shui hardly stopped.
Wen Lingshuang forced herself to drink a bowl of bird's nest porridge, just in time to fill her stomach before applying makeup.
At seven o'clock, the makeup and hair were done.
Seven or eight people began to help her change into an elaborate wedding dress. This dress was worth over 100 million yuan. Both the design and the diamonds embedded in the skirt were made of the most expensive materials. Wen Lingshuang opened her arms and let them dress her. She had been looking forward to it before going to sleep last night, but this morning she was so sleepy because she got up too early.
Jiang An sent her many messages.
He said he had already set off to pick her up.
Wen Lingshuang sent an "oh" and never replied again.
So sleepy.
I'm so sleepy.
At eight o'clock, golden sunlight broke through the clouds and scattered onto the earth. From the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain, there were people clearing the snow. The snow piled up on both sides of the road, leaving a wide and clean road in the middle. As soon as the sun came out, it dispelled the chill. When the sunlight shone into the house through the French windows, Tan Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "What a good day. Yesterday I was worried that it would snow today, but I didn't expect the sun to come out."
Wen Lingshuang yawned and said, "Mom, I'm sleepy."
"On such an important day, you're not allowed to throw a tantrum."
"Hmm..." Wen Lingshuang groaned in grievance. Wearing such an elaborate wedding dress, she couldn't lie down or sit properly, so she could only stand like this.
Suddenly, Ah Shui ran upstairs, shouting as she ran, "He's here! He's here! The groom's here!"
The voice came from afar, then ran into the room, panting, "The groom is coming up from the foot of the mountain."
Everyone perked up when they heard that the wedding procession was coming.
The roar of helicopter rotors grew louder as three silver-gray helicopters, painted with the Jiang family emblem, flew past in a triangular formation. The cabin doors opened, and fragments of rose petals, like a lavish rain, showered down, covering the entire villa. Sunlight pierced through the golden shower, refracting dazzling spots of light that fell upon the bustling crowds and sea of luxury cars below.
A convoy of stretched Lincolns and limited-edition Phantoms stretched like silent steel behemoths from the foot of the mountain all the way to the end of the red carpet at the church entrance. On both sides of the red carpet, waiters dressed in matching haute couture stood respectfully with their hands at their sides.
Wen Lingshuang walked to the window and looked at the scene, feeling a tingling sensation in her heart.
Only now do I truly feel like I'm getting married.
The bridesmaids also gathered at the window to watch this extravagant scene. Tan Zhu couldn't help but scream and grabbed Wen Lingshuang's arm, saying that Jiang An was so handsome.
Jiang An was in the second car in the lead car, and he hadn't even shown his face yet. How could we know if he was handsome or not?
Wen Lingshuang poked her forehead and said, "Don't open the door so easily just because you're pretty."
Tan Zhu patted his chest and said, "Absolutely."
The convoy arrived at the Wen family's gate. On the first floor, Wen Lingshuang's younger brothers blocked the entrance. Through the door, Wen Lingshuang watched the entire video surveillance. She saw Jiang An, dressed in a black suit, step out of the car, followed by groomsmen who were all wealthy, including Xie Duozhi from Huayao Group, Lu Xingyao from Hanhai International Group, and Pei Du from Xingxuan Technology Group...
When Tan Zhu upstairs saw the lineup of groomsmen, she almost fainted.
Each of them has a completely different style of handsomeness, they're all so good-looking it's insane.
The entrance to the first floor is easy to navigate; you only need to finish a few drinks and state the vintage of the wine to go upstairs. When it comes to wine tasting, Xie Duozhi is undoubtedly the best, easily stating the vintage and date of each wine.
Hearing the groomsmen coming upstairs, the bridesmaids gathered and blocked the doorway.
Seeing the tightly closed door, the groomsmen began slipping red envelopes through the crack, stacks upon stacks of them, too many to count.
Tan Zhu kept blocking the door with her body, insisting that Jiang An would only open it if he told her the three reasons why he loved Wen Lingshuang and the good qualities she possessed.
Jiang An coughed lightly and said, "I like her affectation, I like her coquettishness, I like her whimsical ideas. As for her good points, she's beautiful, sincere, playful, and cute."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people around him started to jeer.
Tan Zhu turned her head to look at Wen Lingshuang sitting on the wedding bed.
Wen Lingshuang held a jade-inlaid fan, giggling as she covered her face, revealing only a pair of round, beautiful eyes. Judging from the emotion in her eyes, she seemed quite satisfied with what Jiang An had said.
The door opened slightly, and Tan Zhu peeked out from inside, saying, "Brother-in-law, you've mentioned so many good qualities of my sister, but what kind of good quality is being playful? Don't try to imply anything by saying that."
Jiang An smiled and said, "Being playful is a virtue in my eyes."
The bridesmaids all got goosebumps.
They all clicked their tongues in agreement.
The bridesmaids had prepared several games, all of which were easily won by the groomsmen. Red envelopes were handed out like water, each one containing the auspicious number 666. I can't remember how many were handed out in total, but I do know that everyone present had a thick stack of red envelopes in their hands.
Jiang An led his groomsmen into the room and saw Wen Lingshuang sitting on the edge of the bed in her wedding dress. His heart trembled.
He walked up to her, slowly knelt down on one knee, and said, "Yangyang, I've come to take you home."
The entire audience screamed.
Wen Lingshuang blushed as they screamed, and reached out to place her hand on his.
The next second, she was picked up by Jiang An and carried out the door.
Firecrackers crackled and colorful flowers bloomed.
At 10 o'clock, the bride left home, and the wedding procession video was being broadcast live on two major platforms in Wenjiang.
After getting into the wedding car, we went directly to the wedding venue.
Upon arrival at the venue, she immediately changed her look and wedding dress.
Jiang An brought her several bowls of hot soup to drink. She reluctantly drank some through a straw. Jiang An told her to drink some more, but she shook her head, "No, drinking too much soup will make my belly big, and I won't look good in my wedding dress."
She was absolutely stunning today, I couldn't take my eyes off her.
There's nothing wrong with it.
Jiang An suppressed his romantic thoughts and said softly, "Then tell me if you're hungry, and I'll get you something to eat."
Wen Lingshuang nodded, glanced at Jiang An, and smiled.
Jiang An looked into her eyes and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"Jiang An, we are husband and wife now."
Hearing this, Jiang An's heart melted completely, and he nodded, "Yes, we're husband and wife now, Mrs. Jiang."
