Youyou and Little Yichen arrived at the dressing room. When they saw the two wedding attendants, they noticed that the little loli looked like she was on the verge of tears, appearing most pitiful.
Yun Shishi immediately pulled the little loli towards herself and asked in fluent English, “What’s your name?”
When the little loli realized that Yun Shishi spoke English, she immediately felt a familiarity. She opened her mouth timidly and said in a childish voice, “Shany.”
“Shany? What a lovely name.”
The little loli even replied politely, “Thank you.”
She suddenly turned around and stared curiously at Little Yichen. Seeing that she was staring at Little Yichen, Youyou immediately reached out and tugged at the corner of his shirt. “She’s looking at you!”
Out of curiosity, Little Yichen followed his line of sight and turned to look at the little loli, only to see her blushing and hiding in Yun Shishi’s embrace. Her long eyelashes flickered, making her look as beautiful as a fairy!
She seemed shy!
The blonde-haired, green-eyed boy, on the other hand, stood by the side and laughed like a silver bell. He pointed at Shany and said, “Shany, don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you!”
Yun Shishi looked at the boy and asked gently, “What’s your name?”
“My name is Angelo!”
Little Yichen suddenly hooked his arm around Youyou’s shoulder and asked curiously, “Mommy, why don’t you let Youyou and I be your pageboys?”
“For a pair of wedding attendants, you’ll need a girl and a boy,” Youyou reasoned. “Too bad our little sister’s only six months old.”
Little Yichen turned around and looked worriedly at the two children. They looked to be about four or five years old. He wondered if they would cause any trouble given their young age.
There was once he attended a prime minister’s wedding with Mu Yazhe. The bride was also led in by two wedding attendants. The boy held a pillow bearing the ring while the girl carried the bride’s train.
A wedding ring pillow was an important part of a western wedding ceremony.
The rings would be secured onto the pillow and the pageboy would pass them to the newlyweds. Then, the newlyweds would exchange the ring.
However, upon entering the venue, perhaps because there were so many guests, the little girl became a little nervous. She accidentally stepped on the hem of the wedding dress and fell to the ground.
Before she could cry, the little boy at the side saw her tripping and falling to the ground. Shocked, the boy clutched the pillow in his hands and started wailing.
Everyone burst into laughter. On one hand, they found the two little wedding attendants interesting, on the other hand, they were rather amused though exasperated that for an important occasion such as this, the two children were so uncooperative.
The parents quickly went forward to console him, but the little boy would not stop crying at all. A group of adults surrounded him, and even the groom hugged him and comforted him. Finally, the little boy rubbed his eyes and stopped crying. When the wedding ceremony was about to continue, the little girl shouted for her mother again. She actually staggered to the priest and sat in front of him before bursting into tears!
As she cried, she used the hem of her dress to wipe away her tears. She cried so hard, like it was the end of the world.
Her desperate cries echoed throughout the venue.
The scene turned chaotic immediately.
It was only later on when the adults had no choice but to carry the two little guys off the stage that the wedding could proceed.
Little Yichen’s worries were not unfounded.
After all, the environment here was too unfamiliar to these two kids. They were in a foreign country and there were so many people present. What if they got stage fright and spoiled things?
