When Shi Nian and Ye Kun appeared in Chinese-style groom outfits, the whole venue shifted from an anticipatory silence to thunderous applause. To see the two men, usually dressed in suits and ties or casual and elegant attire, in such traditional Chinese apparel could be said to be shocking.
The music, lighting and setting of the venue also changed with the grooms’ arrival. Before, the guests had been the ones holding the court, chatting and laughing happily amidst the soft music and tinkling of wine glasses. But now, the change in atmosphere indicated the wedding ceremony had officially begun, and it promised to be a refreshing one.
The two brides showed up escorted by the bridesmaids, faces decorously covered by the round silk fans held in their hands.
“Oh my god! Those wedding dresses are just too gorgeous! How can there be such beautiful wedding dresses!” someone cried out. The exclamation was like a pebble thrown into a pond, causing susurrus of murmurs to ripple through the crowd, spreading and shaking the entire scene like a butterfly effect.
“You guys don’t know, do you? Those wedding dresses were personally designed by the two brides! The dresses weren’t made by outside parties either; they were hand-sewn by the experts in charge of costumes from their own film production company. They’re definitely custom handmade haute couture. You won’t find a second dress of its kind—sorry, my mistake—there’s only two of a kind in this world! This isn’t something money can buy!”
“I heard that Yun Nan’s mother, Mr. Gu Bei’s daughter, was especially good at embroidery when she was alive! I reckon that no one in the country or abroad can match her craftsmanship. It’s a pity she passed away early!”
“Truly a misfortunate fate! Look at how doting Mr. and Mrs. Gu are to Yun Nan; it seems, with the loss of their daughter, they’d transferred their love for her over to Yun Nan, spoiling her twice-over.”
“Yun Nan is worth it. Not only is she beautiful, but she’s also built herself a thriving business. The sky’s the limit for her. Any family would be insanely happy to have such a woman marry them! Look at Xu Yun, she looks years younger with the way she’s glowing with joy!”
“Oh, it’s not just Xu Yun—look at Kong Zhen! And Lu Ying! Look! She’s been smiling non-stop for the past few days. She’s over the moon!”
“That’s right! Her daughter-in-law is also beautiful and capable, so of course she’s overjoyed.”
“Hey, have you guys heard about Fang Xi and Xi Cheng’s relationship?”
“Oh, that’s old history! That’s old news from way back when. That Xi Cheng is truly a prodigal, good-for-nothing playboy. Poor Han Yuan had to climb out of her hospital bed to clean up her son and daughter-in-law’s mess. Having such a son and daughter-in-law makes it hard to even die with peace of mind. The Xi family just isn’t lucky enough to have such a good daughter-in-law, if you ask me!”
