Today, Su Xingran is serving as a bridesmaid, and she's dressed as usual. Last night, her sisters-in-law suggested she wear a dress. Su Xingran refused; it's late February and Beijing is still quite cold. What's the difference between wearing a dress and sleeping without a blanket at night?
Su Xingran felt cold just looking at Xiao Xue in her cheongsam. Luckily, she had a thick coat over it, otherwise she would probably catch a cold after the wedding.
The groom arrived to pick up the bride around 9:30 AM. The banquet was held at a restaurant and started at noon. After welcoming Xiao Xue into his home, Gu Moting still had to rush to the wedding banquet venue at the restaurant.
Hearing the commotion outside, Su Xingran winked at Xiao Xue. "Brother Mo Ting is here. Sister Xiao Xue, do you think I should just open the door, or block the door and make things difficult for him?"
Su Xingran was unusually mischievous, and Xiao Xue smiled, feeling that this lively and slightly mischievous Xingran was exactly what a seventeen or eighteen-year-old should be like. Usually, Xingran gave people the impression of being mature and distant.
Xiao Xue is only twenty-three years old this year; she's still a girl before the wedding. She winked at Su Xingran, as if to say, "You decide what to do!"
Upon receiving the signal, Su Xingran immediately closed the door and stood beside it. Soon, there was a knock on the door.
"Xiaoxue, it's me, Gu Moting. I've come to take you home. Open the door and let me in."
The door remained closed, and no one responded. Gu Moting stood in the doorway, followed by a group of men.
"Mo Ting, you're not calling her correctly, your wife isn't opening the door. Hurry up and call her again," a man standing behind Mo Ting said with a smile.
Gu Moting touched his military cap and cleared his throat. "Honey, I've come to take you home. Can you open the door for me?"
Standing inside the door, Su Xingran turned her head and looked at Xiao Xue with a teasing smile. Xiao Xue's face flushed when Gu Moting called her "wife." Su Xingran's teasing only made her more shy.
"Brother Mo Ting, if you want to come in and take Sister Xiao Xue away, you have to give me something!" Su Xingran called out from inside the door to Gu Mo Ting outside.
"Hey, who's that person talking to Mo Ting? They have a really nice voice." Someone in the crowd asked Gu Mo Ting.
Standing to Gu Moting's right, Gu Moli's lips curled up slightly, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
"Xingran, quickly open the door for Brother Moting. I'll give you a red envelope, a few more, okay?" Gu Moting glanced at his younger brother.
Gu Moli took out several red envelopes from his pocket and slipped them through the crack under the door. He pictured Su Xingran squatting on the ground picking up the red envelopes.
Su Xingran wasn't in a hurry to pick up the red envelopes, but instead spoke to the door. "Brother Mo Ting, will you be devoted to Sister Xiao Xue in the future? Will you take good care of her? Will you cherish and protect her? Will you let her suffer any grievances?"
Xiao Xue was surprised by Su Xingran's words, and felt a warmth in her heart. Xingran, like Xiao Yu, was someone who could warm one's heart.
Gu Moting answered without hesitation, "I, Gu Moting, will be devoted to Xiao Xue from now on. I will take good care of her, cherish her, protect her, and never let her suffer any injustice."
Su Xingran wouldn't actually block the door or make things difficult for the groom. She picked up the red envelope from the ground, opened the door, and stood a little further away.
The door opened and Gu Moting walked into the room. Today, he was wearing a military uniform. It was the first time Xiao Xue had seen Gu Moting in a military uniform. She felt deeply attracted to him; Moting looked really handsome in his uniform.
Gu Moting looked at Xiao Xue sitting on the edge of the bed, his heart pounding. Soon he would be able to take this girl home. Xiao Xue was beautiful today, so beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes off her.
Those who came with Gu Moting to pick up the bride all stood at the door and did not enter the room. Gu Moli stood at the door, looking at Su Xingran standing in the corner of the room.
