The King’s Enchanting Chapter 1805 - 1819: The Grand Finale (Part 22)
Previously on The King’s Enchanting...
However, watching the newlyweds kneel before her, then tremblingly stand up—Jian Anning couldn’t see, the veil was too large, the dress too long.
She indeed felt her eyes fill with warmth and emotion. The child has grown up, is getting married; wouldn’t Ma Xinyu be delighted to see this from heaven?
Since she’d received their bow, even though she wasn’t Anning’s biological mother, she had long prepared a generous dowry. Although she knew Jian Anning wasn’t lacking money now, it was a gesture from the heart.
After the two stood up, the emcee shouted again: "Bow to each other as husband and wife!"
Yu Zexiao felt a rush of excitement; actually, ever since he got together with Jian Anning, there had been plenty of doubts.
It was simply that she wasn’t as beautiful as him, her background wasn’t as prestigious, and people wondered how a celebrity of noble birth would fall for someone like her? Some even maliciously speculated, did she have certain skills that kept him coming back? (Actually, part of this guessed the truth.)
But only he knew, Jian Anning was the one who guided him into this bizarre entertainment world. If not for being attracted by her music, he might have followed his group of wastrel friends and accepted his father’s arrangement to go into business.
Since they’d been together, especially these past years, because of their shared interests and hobbies, they’d genuinely come to appreciate each other and align perfectly. She composed, he performed. He acted, she worked behind the scenes. Their collaboration was quite flawless.
It could be said that initially, it was indeed his cleanliness obsession that made him unable to touch women for years, only with her. Adding in her days as an assistant—dedicated without complaint yet with a dash of pride—he’d wanted to keep her. After going through a series of events, he realized he might indeed have fallen for her.
But true soulful connection, that’s definitely now.
Finding a soul mate in life is already hard enough, especially when that soul mate is also your confidante, your wife, and not only emotionally connected but living harmoniously and happily. There’s nothing more delightful than this!
After bowing, traditionally, it’s "sent to the bridal chamber"!
The problem is, there’s no "bridal chamber" to send them to here, and you can’t really do it like in ancient times—bride thrown into the chamber, husband lifts the veil, then husband drinks with guests, wife sits quietly. You both aren’t even toasting together, what are you doing? Besides, only a few people have seen the bride’s true appearance today; others haven’t. Everyone’s waiting to see how she looks!
So, the veil-lifting had to be done here first, allowing everyone to see the bride’s true appearance, and the wedding wine and meal were also to be enjoyed here.
Alright, that was Yu Zexiao’s idea: they would go table-by-table toasting later, and if they didn’t eat something now to keep themselves steady, they shouldn’t expect a meal today!
Now, the emcee handed him a ceremonial scale. Oddly enough, this scale was made of wood, balanced, not heavy at all, yet in Yu Zexiao’s hands, it felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
It was just like, having just sworn before God, now the moment to say "I do"?
Ling Yichuan and the others below started to shout, "Hurry up! We also want to see what the bride looks like!"
His hand trembled slightly, but he still gently lifted the veil.
Jian Anning slightly raised her head, her eyes sparkling and shyly captivating.
This person is like jade.
