“Today marked a rare occasion where Old Mrs. Cen refrained from labeling Cen Shaoqing as a brat. Her face beamed with kindness as she smiled and urged: “Shaoqing, make haste and depart. Avoid missing the auspicious moment.” ”
The chosen auspicious time stood at 8:00, with arrival planned at the Lin family home by 8:58.
“The distance between the two households was short, reachable in just twenty minutes. Yet, being wedding day, the vehicles couldn’t speed along too swiftly. ”
““Yes, Grandma.” Cen Shaoqing gave a slight nod before departing alongside the best man group, the convoy, and the rest set to fetch the bride. ”
8:30.
Ye Zao had completed all preparations and now awaited Cen Shaoqing’s arrival.
“Suddenly, the door swung open. ”
“Zao Zao!”
“Spotting the visitor, delight sparkled in Ye Zao’s eyes. “Pingting!” ”
An Lizi shared the astonishment. “Didn’t you mention you couldn’t make it?”
“Zhao Pingting grinned and replied, “I dismissed my boss.” ”
““Well done,” An Lizi praised. ”
“Zhao Pingting laughed, “Just kidding. Truth is, I claimed I couldn’t come to surprise Zao Zao. How could I skip her wedding!” ”
“Ye Zao wasn’t merely her closest friend but the pivotal figure in her existence. ”
“With that, Zhao Pingting added, “I’m not alone—my parents joined me too.” ”
“Uncle and aunt came as well?”
“Yes.”
The Lin household brimmed with visitors that day. Lin Jincheng and Ye Shu buzzed around ceaselessly.
Lin Ze and Bai Jingshu faced the same frenzy.
8:58 pm.
Right on schedule, the bridal fleet pulled up to the Lin family gate.
Firecrackers exploded through the air.
“Li Yueyue sprang into action at once. She rose and commanded, “Pingting, hurry, secure the door! I’ll stash my shoes!” ”
An Lizi pulled out prank items purchased the night before.
“Items included cling film, pressure-sensitive mats, and lipstick. ”
“The door got locked before the groom and groomsmen reached the stairs. ”
“Meanwhile, Cen Shaoqing guided the groomsmen and companions to the entrance. ”
“Open up!” He Ziteng rapped on the door.
“Who’s there?” Li Yueyue inquired playfully.
““The wedding pickup team,” He Ziteng declared. ”
““Pickup team? Which one?” An Lizi pressed on. “Have the bride-fetcher speak up.” ”
““Fifth brother, your turn!” He Ziteng swiftly stepped aside, positioning Cen Shaoqing forward. ”
“Cen Shaoqing’s pulse raced wildly. Calming his eager heart, he parted his lips. “Leader, please open the door.” ”
““Too quiet—your leader didn’t catch it,” Zhao Pingting teased. ”
“Cen Shaoqing cleared his throat again. “Leader, I’ve come to fetch you.” ”
“I caught that. But where’s the sincerity?”
“Sincerity?” Cen Shaoqing glanced toward He Ziteng.
“He Ziteng hadn’t anticipated Cen Shaoqing grasping the concept alone. Though Cen Shaoqing was the groom, He Ziteng proved sharper here, having researched bribing bridesmaids for door access. ”
He Ziteng pulled a stack of red envelopes from his bag. “Sincerity comes in due time. Unlock the door, and I’ll hand it over.”
Zhou Chuyue flashed He Ziteng a thumbs-up.
Impressive!
Utterly brilliant!
From behind the door, An Lizi’s voice rang out. “Unlock it? Think we’re fools? Shove the sincerity underneath.”
He Ziteng, out of options, slid the red packets under the door.
“The trio inside buzzed with thrill upon grabbing them. Li Yueyue grinned, “Never thought He Ziteng had such wits.” ”
“An Lizi chimed in, “Master Wu trained him well. You wouldn’t believe how rigid he was before.” ”
He Ziteng had once pursued An Lizi, his blunt antics nearly terrifying her away.
“He Ziteng appeared decent enough, yet he wasn’t An Lizi’s style at all. ”
“Red packets in hand, the three finally unlatched the door. But as a sliver appeared, the waiting groomsmen and party shoved it wide. ”
“They’re inside! They made it!”
“Clad in his striking red wedding robe, Cen Shaoqing clutched a floral bouquet. His gaze fixed on Ye Zhuo, poised elegantly on the bed. ”
“She sat ramrod straight, fan shielding her radiant visage. ”
““Leader, I’ve arrived to take you home.” ”
“An Lizi folded her arms. “Master Five, that your way of escorting your leader home?” ”
Cen Shaoqing paused in surprise.
“He Ziteng leaned in to whisper, “Fifth brother, get down on your knees.” ”
“Once, He Ziteng might have fretted over Cen Shaoqing’s pride refusing the kneel. ”
But today...
No such worry.
For Cen Shaoqing held no limits before Ye Zhuo.
