Chapter 30
**
After the oath was finished, there was an additional questioning session that Brother 6 had specially asked Teacher Y to arrange.
I remember he insisted strongly at that time: I wanted to add the question "Are you willing to be each other's husband/wife?"
I was standing next to him: ...Are you so ceremonial?
Brother 6: This is called having a girlish heart.
At this time, I handed the microphone back to Brother 6, and then I heard Teacher Y behind me say, "Are you willing to marry XXX?"
Brother 6 smiled happily, "I do."
Then he handed me the microphone. As Teacher Y asked more questions, I nodded vigorously and said, "I do."
After I finished speaking, the staff came up to the stage and took the microphone from my hand. Xiaoqi, the bridesmaid, came up from the stage and handed us both rings.
When Xiaoqi followed the music and walked between us, I saw that her face was covered with tears. She stared at us and laughed and cried at the same time. Xiaoqi was also the person who knew the most about our story, so it was undoubtedly most appropriate for her to hand over the ring. At this time, Brother 6 and I reached out and took each other's wedding rings. He put it on me first, and then I put it on him.
Teacher Y then said, "You may hug and kiss your bride."
The whole audience suddenly burst into warm cheers and applause, and gentle and melodious background music sounded. Brother 6 hugged me tightly in his arms and bent down to kiss me.
Under the beautiful stage lights, he and I both showed our happiest smiles.
From this moment on, we are officially married in the presence of our closest relatives. For the rest of our lives, no matter in health or sickness, in good times or bad, in poverty or wealth, we will always be by each other's side, walking through every spring, autumn, winter and summer, day and night together, experiencing all the ups and downs together, and being each other's beloved partners in life.
I think this is the most beautiful part of the oath, it is like a solemn promise to the soul. Every day from now on, when my brother 6 and I think of today, we will cherish every day as the most unforgettable promise in our life.
Don't forget your original intention, so that you can achieve your goal.
The first part ended here. Brother 6 and I walked off the stage hand in hand to change into clothes and styles for the second part. The second part was very important, and the opening was the performance of Brother 6 and me.
The skirt I wore for dancing and singing was an ice blue puffy dress, which was recognized by Xiaoqi and Didi as the most beautiful skirt. It made me look blingbling all over when I put it on. After I changed, Brother 6 came to the lounge to pick me up.
I suggested: How about we rehearse it two last times?
Brother 6: Okay.
We were in the lounge, without any music playing, and we just started dancing.
Dancing in a formal skirt is completely different from dancing in casual clothes at home. The skirt is heavy and has a large hem, so you have to pay attention to the angle at which it swings. Add in high heels, and the difficulty is greatly increased.
After two passes, it went perfectly smoothly, and the butlers nearby clapped wildly: "It's so beautiful, so great!"
Brother 6 and I looked at each other, and he said, "Let's go on stage."
Hahahaha, it’s been a long time since I felt this nervous before performing on stage. As a stagehand, I’m really looking forward to it.
As we said during the rehearsal, I sat down at the main table first, and Brother 6 went to the small door behind the stage to wait. As the lights in the venue dimmed, the background music of "Can I have this dance" began to play.
The staff handed me the microphone, I turned on the microphone, and slowly stood up from my seat following the prelude music.
"Take my hand, take a breath."
"Hold me close, and take one step."
As I sang, I slowly walked from my seat onto the stage. Everyone in the audience was very respectful and immediately cheered and applauded. The on-site sound equipment and lighting were very good. After I walked to the designated position on the stage, I waved to the audience on the left and right to interact with them, and I didn't feel nervous at all.
When the first part of the male and female chorus music came out, I immediately turned to the small door of the stage where Brother 6 was, then stretched out my hand in his direction and slowly led him out.
When everyone saw him appear, the cheers became louder.
He walked up to me, looked at me with a smile, and made an elegant gesture to invite me to dance.
When my singing part was about to end, I quickly handed the microphone to the staff waiting on the side and started dancing with Brother 6.
I think this is the best dance we've had since we started rehearsing two months ago.
Whether it was the accuracy and placement of the dance steps, or our expressions and naturalness, they were all brought to the best of our ability on this stage. I think Brother 6 was a little nervous at the beginning, but later on he became more and more relaxed as he danced.
Our ending freeze frame was me bending backward in his arms and him lowering his head to kiss me. When the song ended, the whole audience burst into the warmest applause.
We both saw the smiles of happiness and success in each other's eyes.
This performance that my brother 6 and I bravely tried at our own wedding was a perfect success. When I look back at the photos of us dancing later, I still feel very happy and excited.
After the dance, it was time for the surprise bouquet presentation I prepared for my five bridesmaids. Except for Xiaoqi, none of them knew they would be going on stage in advance. As my undercover agent, Xiaoqi had already prevented the four of them from leaving the main table. So when they were called by Teacher Y, everyone had a confused expression on their faces. As soon as Didi was called, she burst into tears under the stage. This girl cried almost from beginning to end throughout the entire dinner, which shows how much she devoted herself to my wedding.
After all five of them came on stage, I handed them five handwritten letters that I had prepared long ago.
"Now, each of the five bridesmaids will take turns reading the letters in their hands. And the audience, please listen carefully and raise your hands to guess which bridesmaid will receive the bouquet," Teacher Y said. "Those who guess correctly will receive a prize!"
Lei Zi was the first. She was my former intern, a year younger than me, and we had a revolutionary friendship, sharing the same struggles. Lei Zi is a girl with high emotional intelligence, strong work ethic, and a very kind heart. We got along really well, and even after she left the company, we still stayed in touch. She's still single, pursuing her dreams, but I think she'll meet a very good guy.
After Lei Zi finished his studies, it was Wang Pang who came along. As a good brother who has been hanging out with me since high school, Wang Pang is a very generous girl who is cheerful every day with a silly spirit. She and her boyfriend have been together since college for almost seven years, which is not easy. I sincerely hope they can be happy.
Xiaobai is also my high school classmate. She is a legend in our circle because she and her boyfriend have been dating since they graduated from high school, and they have been in an long-distance relationship for five years. Despite no one being optimistic about their relationship, they have been together until now and will be getting married next year. I wrote my best wishes for her in the letter, but I didn't expect that she actually cried at the end. She is not an emotional person.
The fourth one was Xiaoqi. She also started crying the moment she took the stage. She's such a kind and gentle girl, just like I wrote about in Blue Tears. Her kindness to me is hard to describe. She knew the entire story of my relationship with Brother Liu best. She stood firmly by my side through all the hard times. I think she deserves the best. She and Brother Shui have been together for almost eight years. I wrote in my letter that I hope they can have a perfect ending, just like in the novel.
Finally, it was Didi, who couldn't stop crying. She and I were known as the Chichi Didi Squirrel Brothers. We talked about everything and were incredibly close. We'd been through countless hilarious, shocking, interesting, and unforgettable things together, good and bad... We'd always been there for each other. Didi was incredibly talented, but her love journey had its ups and downs. I was always there for her when she met the wrong person, so I understood her heart best. From the very beginning, I had decided to give her the bouquet. I wanted to give her all the romantic luck that Brother 6 and I had, hoping she'd find someone who would make her worry-free.
After Didi finished reading, she turned to look at me and said, "Sangsang and I are really good friends. Everyone knows that we have always been together..."
As a tough lady who hardly shed tears throughout the entire wedding, at this moment, my eyes suddenly became moist.
Friendship is actually exactly the same as love. It is a combination of fate and chemical reaction. Having a true friend is as rare as having an intimate lover. Friendship can also be long-lasting and unforgettable. It is another kind of resonance of the soul. When I think of every happy moment that Didi and I have been together for more than three years, I burst into tears instantly.
I sincerely hope that our friendship will last forever.
My brother 6 beside me was always paying attention to me. At this time, he held my hand tightly and whispered to me, "Baby, don't cry. If you cry, I will cry too."
I looked at his red eyes and knew that he, who knew me best, felt the same way as I did.
After Didi finished speaking, Teacher Y invited the audience to guess which bridesmaid would receive the bouquet. Some guessed Didi, some guessed Xiaoqi, and some guessed Xiaobai... every answer was given.
Teacher Y then smiled and said, "Bridesmaids who think they will get the bouquet, please step forward."
I was watching and laughing as the five of them gathered together to discuss. Didi didn't think it was her at first, but Lei Zi nodded firmly at her and told her that it was her.
Then, I watched as Didi took a tentative step forward.
Teacher Y handed the microphone to me and asked me to announce the correct answer. I raised my eyebrows at Didi and said, "That's you."
Everyone started applauding, and the staff handed me the preserved flowers and bouquets I had prepared, asking me to give one to each of them. When Didi received the bouquets, she cried and said to me, "Thank you, let's hug each other."
Later, Xiaobai wrote the following text when posting on WeChat Moments: King Sang, if your goal at your wedding is to make the bridesmaids cry, then you are probably the only one.
I wouldn't dare say my wedding was the most perfect, but I would say that I was definitely the one who tried my best to give the best experience and memories to everyone who treated me well.
The end of the second session is the gratitude session.
The big screen first played the surprise video that my brother 6 and I prepared for Mom and Dad. I was sitting in my seat and saw Mom and Dad smiling with joy. I instantly felt that our surprise was worth it.
Then my father went on stage to speak on behalf of both sets of parents. Although I had already heard his wonderful performance once at home, I still listened to it carefully again in the audience.
I was deeply moved by what my father said, and the following sentences touched me the most.
Dad said—
"Your happiness is our greatest happiness as parents. As long as you two are well, we have nothing else to ask for."
"The most important thing is to cherish each other, cherish every day, be tolerant and understanding of each other, and trust each other. It's not easy to be together and enter the palace of marriage. We must always remember the good things about each other."
"Also, never forget to respect and honor both sets of parents. Family love is priceless."
My father’s speech was not long, but every word came from the heart. As the person who has educated me and accompanied me since I was a child, he can truly be called a perfect parent.
The second session ended successfully. Finally, there was a lucky draw and interactive game session. My brother 6 and I also started to toast the relatives, friends and colleagues at each table and accept everyone's best wishes.
It's really funny. Some relatives told me, "Sangsang, don't bully 66. He's very gentle and kind. Be nice to him and don't lose your temper."
Me: ...Why do you always tell me not to bully him?
Then Brother 6 was right beside him: Hahahahahahaha look at the way we get along, do I look like I would bully you?
Some relatives also said, "66, treat Sangsang well. Be good to her for the rest of your life and don't let her suffer any injustice."
Brother 6 nodded solemnly beside him, smiling, "Of course, of course. Don't worry."
At around nine o'clock, the dinner was almost over. My brother, my parents, and I were all at the door seeing off everyone who came. Many people told me this.
“It was a really great wedding.”
"It's the most fancy one I've ever attended."
“So elegant.”
"You two are so sweet, you must be happy!!"
“It’s really, really great!”
…
After so many blessings and compliments and being busy for more than half a year, at this moment, my brother 6 and I feel that all our efforts, hard work and preparations are worth it. In my heart, a wedding is not about showing extravagant decorations. I hope my wedding is the warmest and most touching. This will be the most beautiful memory of our lives, and it will also become one of the most unforgettable memories in the hearts of others.
By the time Brother 6 and I were able to return to our room, it was already past 10 p.m. We were both exhausted, but I still smiled and said to Brother 6, "I have a big surprise for you."
Brother 6 instantly looked expectant.
