Chapter 464: Mr. and Mrs. Chen!

Chapter 464: Mr. and Mrs. Chen!

Tears rolled down her cheeks. Huian couldn’t believe that this was really happening.

Shin confessed…he really loves me too…

A mix of emotions overwhelmed her, and she said, smiling and crying at the same time.

“Yes…”

Her voice was soft, almost a whisper. She felt emotional. After she moved on from Jinhai, she had no hope that she would ever fall in love again.

Sometimes, that thought terrified her. She was scared of living alone for the rest of her life. Everybody beside her was in a happy marriage, be it her parents, Jinhai and Nana, and even Serena and Jianyu’s relationship was getting better.

Only she was alone without anybody in her life to share her joys and pain with, and that pricked her heart like thorns.

When she watched Jinhai and Nana take their vows, a sense of melancholy and loneliness enveloped her chest. She was happy for them, but at the same time, she wondered if she could have that real wedding of her own in the future.

With Jinhai, she neither got a wedding nor a ring.

But now, every such feeling washed away from her heart with Shin’s confession. This time, she didn’t force anybody.

This time, somebody confessed to her on his own. Somebody loved her and held feelings for her. This time, somebody returned her love too.

That joy was simply out of this world. She never felt this way with Jinhai, and now she realized why.

Shin was overjoyed and almost crushed her in his hug, but then he remembered that she was pregnant, and he immediately withdrew.

“Sorry, sorry. You are not hurt, right?” he felt panicked, “Did I hug too hard?”

Huian chuckled. “No, idiot. I am not that fragile.”

Shin cupped her cheeks and kissed her forehead. Then he gazed at her before placing a soft kiss on her lips.

“This is real, right?”

“Actually, I was going to ask you the same thing.”

Both laughed.

Shin grinned. “We were going to be in a fake relationship before, but who knew that I would introduce you to my parents as my real girlfriend now? Well, we should thank that night in the bar that changed everything~”

Huian blushed. Then she felt a little anxious. “Shin…I…will they a-accept me? Your parents? I mean, I was already married before, and I also have…” she fiddled with her thumb, “hurt Nana many times in the past. I don’t think-“

“Stop, stop,” he cut her off, “Trust me. I know my parents very well. I know there was friction between you and Nana before, but now everything is in the past, and they have also understood and accepted that. And if not for you, then Nana’s delivery would have been impossible. They are actually very grateful to you for saving her and especially Nian, who was on the verge of getting critical.”

Huian was still unsure.

Shin flicked her forehead. “Don’t overthink. I am sure Mom and Dad will be thrilled.”

She slowly nodded. She only hoped that it would turn out to be true.

“Good. Now, let’s go. Everybody is waiting.”

—

Liang Xiao Dan saw Shin and Huian coming together as she was waiting outside for him.

She curiously squinted her eyes. The atmosphere between them looked different.

Her senses tingled, and the woman and mother’s instinct in her gave her lots and lots of signals.

Am I thinking this right? Is there really brewing something between the two of them?

“Mom.”

Her lips curved into a devilish smile. Shin shuddered.

“Why are you smiling like that? Mom, you are acting creepy.”

She shot a deadly glare at him. “Shut up! And where were you? The wedding is starting. Everybody is waiting for you!”

Then she made a one-eighty degree change in her attitude as she smiled brightly at Huian.

“Huian, dear. You are here too!”

Huian straightened up in nervousness and nodded. “Mrs. Liang. Hello.”

Liang Xiao Dan darted her gaze between the two of them. “So, you two were together.”

“I-I…we just bumped into each other.”

“Ho~~”

Shin helplessly chuckled.

Huian is so nervous even though I told her not to be.

“Good, good. Now, let’s go back! The ceremony is starting.”

She quickly rushed inside, grinning to herself.

God, I have to say this to Zou! This is breaking news!

As she went away, Shin chuckled. “You were so nervous.”

Huian hit his hard. “Of course! She is your mother and-“

She froze and cleared her throat, feeling shy.

He grinned and whispered in her ear, “Also, your future mother-in-law. You can complete the sentence. I don’t mind.”

Her face flushed furiously. “I wasn’t going to say that. Dream on. Who will marry you?”

Shin burst into laughter. “Well, you will definitely marry me one day. I will make sure of that.”

The crimson shade now reached from her cheeks till her neck.

“Now, let’s go before Mom comes running with a broomstick behind me.”

—

It was now Jinhai and Nana’s turn to be the part of the audience in the church and witness their best friend and cousin’s wedding.

Jian and Nian were hopping in her arms as they were excited and ready to watch another wedding unfold. Huo Xiao Fan was beside her, carrying Zixin, who was equally thrilled.

The ceremony finally started when Serena entered the church, arm in arm with Huo Shen, donning a breathtaking wedding gown. Where she had a lovely smile graced on her lips, Huo Shen was trying his best to look the part of a happy father, even though he wasn’t, and it was all because of Jianyu.

“Pfft…” Liu Hai being Liu Hai, couldn’t control his urge to laugh.

“Poor Shen Shen. Look at his face! He is so totally against this marriage. His face is so ugly as if he ate some bitter medicine. Hey Shin, my boy! Did you make him drink any sour medicine?”

Everybody giggled and laughed.

Shin’s mouth twitched, and he helplessly sighed.

Liu Chunhua elbowed him. “Hai! Don’t speak nonsense. He is still in shock. Who could have thought that Jianyu and Serena would get married too?”

Huo Shen glared at him. “Who are you calling Shen Shen? So gross. I am not a kid!”

“Well, you are surely pouting like one.”

Huo Xiao Fan’s gaze dazzled as she saw her daughter walking down her aisle.

She looked so beautiful that her eyes rimmed in tears. She never thought that she would witness her daughter’s wedding like this one day.

Do you see this, my dear?

She was silently talking to her other daughter that was no more—Serena’s twin sister.

Your sister is getting married. Doesn’t she look so pretty? I wish you could be here with us today. Zhilan would have been so happy to see you cheering for her. Dear…please give your blessings to her so that she stays happy like this forever.

Huo Xiao Fan shut her eyes for a moment and then opened them again.

Huo Shen grudgingly handed Serena’s hand in Jianyu’s.

“Take care of my Zhilan. If she sheds even a single tear, I will be taking her back with me at that very instant! Trust me. I won’t ever hand her back again, no matter even if your hair turned all grey.”

Everybody laughed again.

Serena laughed with tears in her eyes. She thanked all the stars in this universe that she got such an amazing father that never once felt the need of Yu Tengfei in her life.

Jianyu smiled. “Don’t worry, Uncle. I will take care of her with my life. I will never let that day come.”

Huo Shen grumbled something. “Hmph. Good for you.”

Jianyu and Serena walked up to the islet.

Just like Jinhai and Nana’s ceremony, the officiant once again gave his speech.

“Mr. Chen Jianyu. Do you take Huo Zhilan as your rightfully wedded wife?”

“I do,” he said with a warm smile and a loving gaze.

“Miss. Huo Zhilan. Do you take Chen Jianyu to be your rightfully wedded husband?”

“I do,” Serena smiled with all kinds of emotions, making her heart race in excitement and nervousness.

Then Jianyu and Serena proceeded to say their vows.

Everybody clapped hard and whistled.

The officiant said, “May I have the rings, please?”

Chen Liling and Huo Xiao Fan brought the rings to them.

Jianyu held her hand and said, “I, Chen Jianyu, take you, Huo Zhilan as my rightfully wedded wife. With this ring, I give you my heart and soul and my everything.”

He put the ring on her finger.

Serena took his ring and said, “I Huo Zhilan, take you, Chen Jianyu, as my rightfully wedded husband. With this ring, I vow my undying love to you and promise always to cherish our marriage.”

When she put the ring too, the officiant said, “With the power vested in me and the power of your love, I now pronounce you as husband and wife. You may kiss each other!”

Jianyu raised her veil and captured her lips in a deep kiss, which Serena reciprocated by kissing him harder.

A minute later, they parted, and the officiant said, “Everybody. Let me introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Chen!”
