The priest, the church, the Wishing Tree.

July 7th, the day of their wedding.

In this wedding, there was only one bridesmaid and one of the bridesmaids. The guests were also people that were rather familiar with Tan Yubai and Yu Meng.

had personally picked out Yu Meng's wedding dress for her. On the day of the wedding, Yu Zheng had dressed up in extreme spirits, and after experiencing so many things in the past few days, Yu Zheng was no longer as mature as he was before. His hair was white, and he had aged quite a bit.

It was only today, after seeing his daughter regain her happiness, that a glimmer of light finally appeared in his muddled eyes.

Yu Meng sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror and letting out a deep breath.

"What's wrong?" Fang Rui had just finished putting on makeup from the room next door, and when she entered the room, she heard Yu Meng sighing.

"You looked distracted this morning."

"Oh, nothing." Yu Meng stood up from her seat, and turned to look at Fang Rui who was leaning on the doorframe: "Should we set off?"

"The man's car has been waiting at the door for a long time."

"Oh." Yu Meng held up her skirt. "You and Mom and Dad should get in the car first. I'll be there in a bit."

"You …" Fang Rui frowned. She had a nagging feeling that Yu Meng was not the same as usual today.

"Is there anything you want to tell me?" Fang Rui asked: "You don't have to hide anything from me regarding our relationship."

"I'm really fine." Yu Meng forced out a dry smile. "Then wait for me at the door. I'll be out in a moment."

Fang Rui thought that maybe she was overthinking things, and Yu Meng was just a little afraid of marriage. After all, she had experienced so much before, and it wasn't easy for her to wait until this day, so her unusual reaction was normal.

When Yu Meng reached the door, she was wearing a white lace veil. The lace design was very tight, and it covered her face, making it almost impossible to see her face.

Fang Rui did not think too much about it.

The sky in Paris was clear and blue. As the caravan moved forward, it represented the pinnacle of romance.

A woman's entire life would be spent fighting to the end with the man she loved.

At the wedding, when the guests were seated, they were all familiar faces. There was no media present, only the bride and groom's family and friends.

Tan Yubai was happy in black today, he did not have an overly special design. The simplest and most basic suit was on him, handsome and square.

Inside the church, a red carpet with petals stretching from the entrance to the stage, the guests were seated on both sides of the stage. Tan Yubai held the fresh flowers in his hands, quietly waiting for the bride outside the door who would support her father in walking in.

The white veil danced in the gentle halo, and the bride and Yu Zheng walked into the wedding hall side by side.

Tan Yubai took a deep breath. It was the first time in his life that his heart had tensed up like this.

It seemed that even when he had married Yu Meng for the first time, his emotions were not as complicated as they were now.

The witness recited the oath on stage, and the bride walked towards the groom step by step. Everyone wanted to witness the most exciting moment, but Tan Yubai, who was listening to the background music of the wedding procession, frowned.

Something seemed to be wrong. Tan Yubai faintly felt that this wedding dress did not seem to fit the bride's figure that well.

He saw her stagger as she walked.

Is it because high heels are too high?

Tan Yubai thought about it and slowly relaxed his brows. Maybe he was overthinking it, or maybe this kind of atmosphere made him panic a little.

When the wedding march reached its climax, the bride and groom got closer and closer. Tan Yubai slowly extended his hand, wanting to take away the bride and concubine Yu Meng from Yu Zheng's side.

This was the climax of the wedding, the most touching part.

Yu Zheng supported his daughter on one side, while the host handed her the microphone on the other.

He opened his mouth, but his heart was filled with emotions. He had prepared so many words for so long last night that he couldn't remember a single word. He was happy for his daughter and felt sorry for her for all the difficulties she had gone through.

However, it was also because there were so many things that made them, this beautiful woman, believe more in each other's importance.

Giving Yu Meng to Tan Yubai, Yu Zheng was extremely willing. He watched as these two youths walked over, he had once questioned Tan Yubai and resented him, but after Qian Fan had gone through, he only felt that he had let Tan Yubai down.

This child's father had once risked his life to save Yu Zheng's life, but now, he was unable to take good care of his good comrade's son.

Yu Zheng thanked Tan Yubai for his appearance and felt even more heartache for his plight.

It was a good thing that everything had turned sour now.

When he handed his daughter over to Tan Yubai, Yu Zheng only said one sentence.

"Live well."

Life is greater than everything. If you live well, then everything will have a chance to start over.

These four words had gained a lot of applause from the audience.

They were all friends that shared life and death together, so their understanding of these four words were naturally deeper than usual.

Then there was the exchange of rings between men and women, witnessed by the conscripts and all their friends.

The moment Tan Yubai gently held onto the bride's hand, he was suddenly stunned.

On the back of this hand, there was a needle pricked on the back of the hand. It was very thin and dense. Moreover, this hand was different from the hand he'd held in the past.

In front of everyone's eyes, Tan Yubai could only suppress the suspicions in his heart, and took out the storage ring from his red velvet jewelry box, and placed it on the other party's ring finger.

However...

He had clearly bought it himself, and the size was very accurate. At this moment, the ring was stuck between his fingers.

No matter how he thought about it, he shouldn't have done it.

Tan Yubai raised his head. From outside the fine lace veil, he could not see the face underneath.

An uneasy feeling slowly emerged within his heart.

In the end, she still wore the ring with difficulty, but it looked very awkward. The ring finger on her ring finger was suddenly tightened, making her feel uncomfortable.

The witness opened her mouth to unveil the veil and kiss the bride.

Tan Yubai's originally slightly creased eyebrows slowly relaxed.

I hope I'm too sensitive, he thought.

The music of the wedding march died down, and the scene grew quiet. Tan Yubai gently lifted the bridal veil, and finally saw his bride's appearance.

However...

When the veil was lifted halfway up, Tan Yubai was stunned in place. He looked at everything with disbelief, his face turning pale.

Everyone was shocked by Tan Yubai's sudden change of events. Just when everyone was curious about what had happened to the bride today, and why he had the suspicion that he hadn't finished drawing the painting, and wanted to look at his bride's face, Tan Yubai immediately covered his head with the veil.

At this point, the guests had already begun their discussion due to their doubts.

It was very disturbing.

Yu Zheng frowned, he did not know what had happened.

"Yubai, why …" Yu Zheng just opened his mouth, only to see Tan Yubai shaking his head.

"Today... "Cancel..."

Tan Yubai's mind was in a mess, this uninvited guest had completely messed up his plans.

"What do you mean? "Are you saying that this marriage is over?" Yu Zheng's eyes were wide open. He did not know what had happened, so he naturally could not understand Tan Yubai's decision for a moment.

When the situation came to a complete standstill, the bride lifted her veil and a piece of lace fell lightly at her feet. Under the veil, her exquisite face caused the entire audience to fall into a deathly silence.

After a long discussion, everyone slowly came back to their senses. People were already starting to quietly discuss this farce.

Seeing the true face of the bride, Yu Zheng's eyes went wide in disbelief.

"You … "Who are you?!" Yu Zheng pushed the unfamiliar woman away. She was wearing her daughter's wedding dress and received the blessings that her daughter should have received. This old man, who had been calm her entire life, was unable to remain calm at this moment.

Shen Nian only glanced at Yu Zheng indifferently. Under the questioning gaze of the audience, she stared at Tan Yubai with her pair of dark eyes.

No matter how many questions there were or how much blame there were, it did not affect her in the slightest.

She only had one thing in her eyes, and that was to be Tan Yubai's bride.

Tan Yubai looked at Shen Nian the same, but in his eyes, it was cold and ruthless.

"Where's Little Meng?"

His thin lips parted slightly, and he spoke in a low and indifferent voice.

"I'm your bride today."

Shen Nian only said that and then gently lowered her gaze. She stroked the ring on her ring finger that was an inappropriate size for a ring finger, and the corner of her mouth slightly raised.

Fang Rui and Su Yu who had been standing by the side of the stage all this while finally recovered from the great shock and walked up the stage. When they saw Shen Nian's face, their eyes opened wide.

Who are you? Impossible! She was still there when I was dressing up for Little Meng this morning! Speak! What did you do to Little Meng? " Fang Rui was very excited, she shook Shen Nian's shoulders hard.

"What can I do to her?" Shen Nian was as calm and composed as usual. She only snorted, and in front of everyone's eyes, she stopped everyone's questions with a single sentence.

"I'm just a cripple. Without Yu Meng's cooperation, how could this' Dragon-Stealing Phoenix 'have happened?"

This was something that Yu Meng had volunteered to do. No one had the strength to refute her.

Tan Yubai's heart suddenly sank into the bottom of the valley.
