As the room gradually quieted down, Jiang Ruixin smiled and said, "Don't the bride and groom look like a perfect couple? Let's hear their vows!"
Zong Jiayu took the microphone, smiled slightly and said, "Little Pear, I grew up in a broken family. I used to think I would never believe in love and would never get married."
However, after meeting you, all my principles were broken. Thank you for letting me into your life and for sharing one unforgettable memory after another with you.
...
Every moment I look forward to you becoming my bride. Only then will we become one, and only then can I truly possess you.
Little Pear, I love you. You are the only one I've ever wanted in this life.
As soon as he finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted. No one expected that such a composed person could utter such moving words.
Jiang Xiaoli took the microphone and said, "To be honest, this is the first time I've ever heard him give me such a long confession."
"Haha." A burst of laughter rang out from the crowd.
She continued, "I am a very insecure person. In life, I always make the worst-case scenario plan for everything and always have a plan B ready."
You changed my life. You became my plan B. No matter what I wanted to do, you trusted me and supported me, which gradually put my mind at ease.
...
You made me realize that besides my parents and relatives, there is someone in this world who cherishes me like a precious gem and considers me the most important person in your life.
Ayu, I love you too. I want you in my heart every day from now on.
Even more enthusiastic applause erupted, and Jiang Ruilin had to urge everyone to quiet down before they finally did.
"It seems everyone was moved by the bride and groom's vows, right? Haha, please let the newlyweds exchange rings!"
This was the first time Jiang Xiaoli had seen the diamond ring, and she was somewhat surprised. Zong Jiayu smiled and said, "My aunt took care of everything; this is the only thing I could do."
She smiled and put the ring on his finger. "Ayu, I like it very much."
Jiang Ruixin said with a smile, "Look at this young couple, already whispering sweet nothings to each other!"
The couple clasped their hands together, wearing wedding rings, for everyone to see before Jiang Ruilin announced, "Groom, you may now kiss your bride."
Zong Jia lowered his head and kissed Jiang Xiaoli on the lips. As the music played, petals fell from the sky, and countless camera shutters clicked, capturing the moment in the frame.
Jiang Ruixin announced, "Congratulations to the groom Zong Jia and the bride Jiang Xiaoli on their marriage!"
A bunch of girls below were chanting, "A bouquet! A bouquet!"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled softly, tilted her head to look at Xiao Muyu, and winked at her.
She turned her back, calculating the force of her throw, and landed the flower accurately in Xiao Muyu's arms.
Hu Jingxin muttered, "This is insider trading!"
It took Zhong Yuan a while to calm her down.
Next to the buffet lunch on the garden lawn was a champagne tower. Jiang Xiaoli and Zong Jiayu held champagne and poured it into the top glass, and the wine slowly filled the entire champagne tower.
They each raised a wine glass, and Zong Jia said loudly, "Thank you all for coming to our wedding. We hope you have a great time!"
The luncheon party began, and while others helped greet the guests, Chang Yue and Yan Chengcheng helped her back to change her clothes.
Back in her room, Jiang Xiaoli instantly collapsed onto the sofa, becoming as limp as a puddle of liquid.
Yan Chengcheng couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Xiao Li, you don't look like someone who could say such touching vows at all right now!"
Chang Yue also said, "That's right, I almost cried just now!"
Jiang Xiaoli struggled to raise her arms. "Could you help me with my clothes? This wedding dress is so heavy, especially with high heels on. I feel like I'm going to be crushed to the ground."
Upon hearing this, the two quickly helped her take off her wedding dress.
Yan Chengcheng asked curiously, "Xiao Li, how heavy do you think this wedding dress is?"
Chang Yue weighed it in her hand, "I estimate it's at least 40 pounds."
Jiang Xiaoli shook her head. "I don't know, but I just felt like I was wearing armor."
"Hahaha!" Yan Chengcheng brought over the dress she had prepared in advance. "Don't worry, this one is very light, and you can grow out of the ground again."
She chuckled softly, "Let me take my time, there's no rush to go out."
She gossiped, "Chengcheng, did Lu Ze give you a hard time today?"
Yan Chengcheng ate fruit and said with a smile, "No, today is your wedding day. Would he dare to give me a hard time? I've noticed that he's the kind of person who bullies the weak and fears the strong. After I confronted him yesterday, he definitely won't dare to come to me again."
Chang Yue gave her a heads-up, "Chengcheng, you need to discuss this with your parents."
"Yes, don't worry! I know!"
After resting for a while, Jiang Xiaoli changed into a light dress and went outside to chat with Zong Jia and the guests.
Jiang Chengle said with a smile, "Little Pear, I'll give you a big red envelope later!"
"Huh?" How did a red envelope suddenly appear out of nowhere?
"A bouquet!" he said with a smile. "I feel like the day I marry Xiaoyu is one step closer!"
Jiang Xiaoli glanced at Xiao Jincheng, whose expression was unreadable, and said, "Hehe, Brother Le, good luck!"
After saying that, she quickly grabbed Zong Jiayu and ran away.
What followed was a series of toasts, expressions of gratitude, and smiles.
After seeing all the guests off, she plopped down in the nearest chair and refused to get up.
Zong Jia gently stroked her hair. "Are you tired?"
He half-squatted in front of her, saying, "I'll carry you back to your room to rest."
Jiang Xiaoli laughed and jumped onto her back, "Bajie, target: the bedroom, let's go!"
They had just removed their makeup and changed their clothes, and hadn't even had a chance to rest, when there was a rapid knocking on the door.
Aunt Yu's voice came through, "Young Master! Young Madam! Madam is dying!"
The two of them immediately lost their sense of drowsiness. They changed their clothes as quickly as possible and rushed downstairs, where Chi Haiyao had already fallen into a coma.
Zong Jia frowned and asked the doctor next to her, "Wasn't she perfectly fine half an hour ago?"
After the wedding ceremony, the two of them made a special trip to see Chi Haiyao. She was in much better condition than before the ceremony, and they even arranged to have dinner together.
The doctor shook his head and sighed, "It's a miracle that Ms. Chi has held on this long. Her family should stay with her."
Aunt Yu reached out and wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes. "Young Master, just now... just now might have been what they call a final burst of energy before death..."
Jiang Xiaoli squeezed his hand. "Ayu, talk to her."
Zong Jia took a deep breath and walked to her side. "What are you trying to achieve by doing this?"
His voice gradually choked up, "You were so heartless back then, if you left, don't come back! I've gotten used to life without you, why did you have to ruin everything? Chi Haiyao, wake up!"
