Not until Jian Dan felt somewhat oxygen-deprived did Chu Liyuan finally release his grip.
Qin Rou hurriedly reminded the host, âWhat are you doing? Hurry up and cue the next part of the ceremony! We didnât hire you just to watch the show!â
âOkay, the bride and groomâs lengthy kiss just now has already proven that their love is unbreakable as gold.
Now both parties may exchange rings!â
Xiaoxin and Jian Xiaokai each pushed a baby stroller to Jian Dan and Chu Liyuanâs side, each holding a beautiful ring box that contained the pair of rings handcrafted by Jian Dan inside.
Jian Dan and Chu Liyuan each took a ring out of the box and slid it onto each otherâs ring fingers.
âMr. Chu, Iâm entrusting Daxin to you from now on. If you dare to bully her, I wonât let you get away with it!â Jian Xiaokai spoke up like a little adult.
âWho would ever bully a wife? Wives are meant to be spoiled!â
âMommy, Daddy is now your responsibility. You must take good care of him, okay?â Xiaoxin mimicked Jian Xiaokaiâs tone with a childish lilt to her voice.
âSure! I definitely will!â Jian Dan said dotingly as she patted both childrenâs heads.
Perhaps because Jian Dan had only patted Xiaoxin and Jian Xiaokaiâs heads and not Kuaikuai and Qian Leleâs, the latter two seemed a bit jealous and actually started to cry.
âAlright, alright, Mommy will also pat Kuaikuai and Qian Leleâs heads. Donât cry anymore, okay?â
Kuaikuai and Qian Lele really did stop crying like sensible children and even began to smile.
Only then did Xiaoxin and Jian Xiaokai push Kuaikuai and Qian Lele awayâ¦
âUncle, if Kuaikuai and Qian Lele are this clever now, can you imagine how they will be when they grow up?â Jian Dan whispered to Chu Liyuan.
âHow could our children be anything less than exceptional?â Chu Liyuan whispered back, bending down close to Jian Danâs ear.
âYeah! True that!â
Finally, it was time to throw the bouquet.
Jian Dan had already decided yesterday that she would give the bouquet directly to two people, Zi Yan and Shang Yujinâ¦
So from the morning onwards, the bouquet Jian Dan held had already been split into two.
So when it came time for this part of the ceremony, Jian Dan handed the two bouquets straight to Zi Yan and Shang Yujin.
âYou two wouldnât want to take this opportunity to propose or something?â Jian Dan slowly addressed Lu Ting and Xia Zijie.
âTodayâs your and Chu Liâs wedding; we wonât steal the spotlight!â Lu Ting spoke up first.
âYeah, yeah! Today you and Mr. Chu are the stars.â
âThen youâd better hurry up. Donât dawdleâin all this time, if you donât act fast, you may lose the bride to someone else!â
These two blockheads, if I donât give them a nudge, who knows when Iâll be able to attend Zi Yan and Shang Yujinâs wedding!
The two guys scratched their heads awkwardly.
Jian Dan shook her head as if to say she was disappointed they werenât getting itâ¦
The ceremony finally concluded, and naturally, it was time for the banquet.
Jian Dan returned to the dressing room to change out of her wedding dress and put on a traditional Chinese bridal attire, complete with a phoenix crown and cape.
âJian, you really have a unique charm in this traditional bridal attire. Itâs completely different from the style earlier,â Shang Yujin said softly.
âYes! I think our Chinese wedding dresses are really beautiful! I want to wear a traditional Chinese dress when I get married too!â Seeing how beautiful Jian Dan looked made Xiaoting, who hadnât even reached 20, think about marriage herself.
âXiaoting, do you have someone in mind?â
âWhat someone? Jian, what are you talking about?â
âThere are a lot of handsome guys here today. If you like someone, just tell me and Iâll play matchmaker for you two!â
âJian, stop joking, Iâm still young!â Xiaotingâs face turned red from Jian Danâs teasing.
âYoung at 20? When I was 20, I was already married to the âuncle,â okay!â
âAh! Youâre so annoying, Iâm going out~â Xiaoting ran off.
âJian, it looks like youâve got a knack for playing matchmaker!â Xia Mengjiao teased.
âI think I really do have a talent for matchmaking,â Jian Dan said proudly.
