Chapter 1323: The Wedding (18)
In the lounge.
Qiao Lian sighed as she stared at the frail disappearing figure. “I just have a gut feeling that this girl isn’t as dull as she appears to be. There’s a sparkle and flame in her eyes. She seems very lively.”
Shi Nianyao laughed at Qiao Lian’s remark and said, “Exactly. Don’t be fooled by this girl’s outward appearance!”
Surprised, Qiao Lian asked, “What makes you say that?”
Shi Nianyao started laughing and related the incident that had just taken place outside.
Qiao Lian was astonished upon hearing this. “So this time, Lu Nanze has gotten himself entangled with quite a character!”
Shi Nianyao nodded.
Shaking her head, Qiao Lian continued, “If that’s the case, I don’t suppose Second Brother won’t have much time in the future to come looking for me, which would be a good thing in reality.”
As they nodded in agreement, suddenly they heard a voice yelling outside, “The time has arrived!”
Immediately, the three women got onto their feet. Qiao Lian straightened her wedding gown and touched up her makeup. Once Xia Nuannuan and Shi Nianyao thought she was ready to go, she headed out of the room.
Just outside the room, Qiao Yi was already waiting.
When he saw Qiao Lian walking out, he held out his hand towards her at once with an elegant motion.
Staring from not far away, Lu Nanze found this an annoying eyesore.
Initially, he had been going to be the one holding her hand and giving her away to Shen Liangchuan, but now…
Lu Nanze cast his gaze down.
Qiao Yi was now holding Qiao Lian’s hand, and Shi Nianyao, as the bridesmaid, walked by her side.
They stepped on the red carpet and then, one step at a time, walked towards the stage.
Shen Liangchuan smiled when he saw her. He walked down from the stage.
The couple met in the middle of the long red carpet.
Qiao Yi took his place in front of Shen Liangchuan now.
His heart, mind and soul were, in this moment, all focused on Qiao Lian. His eyes did not leave her for even one second. She was melting down by the way his eyes were fixed on her.
She lowered her head shyly, as Shen Liangchuan held his hand out towards them.
Qiao Yi looked at the man. After a while, he took Qiao Lian’s hand and placed it into Shen Liangchuan’s.
Shen Liangchuan had now taken the bride’s hand, but Qiao Yi did not let go.
Both Shen Liangchuan and Qiao Lian were slightly surprised and turned to look at Qiao Yi.
They saw that his eyes had reddened.
He looked at Qiao Lian and then at Shen Liangchuan before he started, “Brother-in-law, today, I represent my father in handing my sister over to you.”
Shen Liangchuan paused and nodded.
Qiao Yi bit his lip and continued, “My dad always said something when we were young, something which I would like to tell you today.”
Shen Liangchuan said, “Please go ahead.”
Looking at Qiao Lian, he said, “My sister is emotional and impulsive. She was spoiled by Dad from a young age, so she has a bad temper. But to everyone in the Qiao family, my sister is the most beautiful princess in the world. All of us hoped that she would always be happy and healthy. Hence, Brother-in-law, from now on you will have to tolerate her tantrums, love her, cherish her, and if she has any inadequacies, don’t take it up with her. You can come and talk to me… and I will represent my father in educating her.”
As the boy spoke, his eyes turned redder.
Qiao Lian was already crying.
Dad Qiao had been exceptionally doting on her since childhood.
As a child, she had been a mischievous kid.
Yet today, she was a married woman.
But her parents, who had doted on her, would never see this moment.
