Chapter 255 Yang and I Are Getting Married

The tailored wedding dress was carried upstairs, its long train taking up a third of the floor when it was laid down.

As the glam team applied the final touches on Ella, Anna entered the room with a bowl of Tangyuan, a Chinese special stuffed dumpling made wholly of glutinous rice flour served in soup. "Ella, have some Tangyuan. It's tradition. People believe having Tangyuan on your wedding day will bring you good luck."

It touched Ella to see how much her sister-in-law cared for her, especially since Anna had just had a baby. Ella would have understood if she needed more time to recover, but Anna would hear none of it. Ella had a Tangyuan and said,"Anna, you need to have some rest. I don't think you have fully recovered."

"I'm good, Ella. Don't worry about me. I've been wanting to hang out with you for sometime now. It's your brother who kept me at home, because he wanted me to have rest. I'm tired of resting." Anna said as she scooped up another Tangyuan and blew on it, to cool it down.

"You've done too much for me. Thank you, Anna. How about you have a rest and I'll help myself to the food?" Ella took the bowl from Anna.

"Aww, it's sweet of you to say so. You are the bride and the one who is supposed to enjoy all of this. I just want everything to be perfect for you." When Anna married Eason, her mother fed her Tangyuan.

It was sad that Ella's mother passed away and couldn't do this for her beloved daughter. So Anna wanted to make it up to Ella.

"Thank you, Anna." Ella was moved to tears. Her brother and sister-in-law were so kind to her.

Shortly before 7 o'clock, Eason entered the room, followed by some familiar faces.

"Amber, Yvonne, Zoey, Edith! It's so nice to see you guys!" Ella exclaimed when she saw her old friends. Even though Amber wasn't as radiant as she used to be, she looked much better after taking some time off to recuperate. Ella was glad to see that her friends could all attend the wedding, but she was surprised when she saw Zoey and Edith.

They were popular Hollywood music and

“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.

“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.

Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...

, Lola said,"Ella, I bet Samuel won't stop checking you out after he see you."

Ella giggled,"Well, it depends. Samuel came across so many beautiful women through his work. I might not be attractive to him anymore."

Everybody talked, laughed, and prepared for the wedding. Ella began to get nervous as the wedding drew nearer.

When it was close to 10 o'clock, Ella sat on the bed and her heart began to race.

While the girls huddled to take selfies, someone exclaimed,"The groom's here!" The firecrackers began to crackle and splutter outside the room.

The girls got out of the bed, leaving Ella alone on it.

Edith and Zoey didn't know what to do next since they were not familiar with the Chinese wedding tradition. The two had no other choice but to follow Yvonne and Amber, who were running to the door.

They heard raucous laughter outside and then someone knocked on the door.

"Open the door, the groom's here!"

It was Joseph, the master of the wedding.

Hearing her husband's voice, Lillian shouted,"Red envelopes! No red envelopes, no opening the door!

And make sure you put enough money in them. Or else we won't take them if they're too thin."

The groom and his men consulted quickly outside. Joseph said,"Girls, open the door a crack. These red envelopes we have prepared are so thick that we can't squeeze them under the door."
