After the meal, two carefully selected young and beautiful female officials served hot water for washing hands and cups.
The female official in charge of the kitchen presented two cups of fine wine to Yue Yufeng and Gu Yanan, and the two then drank the nuptial wine together.
After the nuptial ceremony, the servants removed the lavish feast, and Gu Yanan, led by a brightly dressed female official, removed her solemn and luxurious clothes and changed into bright and gorgeous attire.
"You may leave."
The long ceremony had already made Yue Yufeng impatient. If it weren't for the fact that Gu Yanan's accessories were too expensive, gorgeous and complicated, they would never have disturbed their wedding night for so long.

Lying in bed, Yue Yufeng couldn't fall asleep for a long time. It all felt like a dream. This was a moment he had thought about for more than ten years but dared not imagine, and it had actually happened.
