346 Reunion 41 (1/2)
Amidst the loud crackling of the firecrackers, Long Tianze alighted from his car and began waving to the crowd around him, which included some media reporters.
Carrying a bouquet of fresh flowers in his hand, he stepped inside the Mei family home.
After a while, Mei Yangyang exited the door hand in hand with Long Tianze, alongside the company of her parents and An Xiaoning. Mei Yangyang was donning a sparkly white wedding gown and a veil on her head.
Happiness was written all over her face. She did not mind being photographed by the reporters at all. After all, there was nothing to hide since they'd already been in a relationship for a few years and even had two children of their own.
They got into the car and began driving towards the Long family mansion.
The car was parked outside the gate of the Long family mansion, where a red carpet was laid across the ground to welcome the newlyweds-to-be.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
An Xiaoning held onto Mei Yangyang's hand in the car. They could see the crowd clearly through the window.
However, the people outside could not have a clear view of the passengers in the car due to the tinted glass of the car windows.
Long Tianze had already gotten down from the car and stood beside Ling Ciye. Jin Qingyan was still nowhere to be seen at this point.
The auspicious hour arrived.
The firecrackers continued to crackle for a long period of time. Long Tianze opened the car door, but it was not Mei Yangyang who came out first.
The crowd stared on while An Xiaoning came out of the car, dressed in the pink bridesmaid attire. Although Ling Ciye had already expected it, he was still rather shocked to see her in the flesh nonetheless.
Besides, isn't it unbelievable that a person who was supposedly dead for a few years suddenly came back to life?
Was there anything more bewildering than that?
An Xiaoning then reached her hand into the backseat to help Mei Yangyang out of the car.
She handed Mei Yangyang's hand to Long Tianze while the flower boy and girl led the way, each carrying a basket of flower petals that they scattered along the bridal path.
Mei Yangyang held onto Long Tianze's arm and took center stage as they walked down the red carpet while An Xiaoning and Ling Ciye followed closely behind.
Ling Ciye kept his thoughts and questions to himself and would steal an occasional glance at An Xiaoning.
The wedding march began to play slowly in the background.
It was romantic and heartwarming.
They treaded along the red carpet and arrived at the holding area for guests after passing the gate of the main entrance.
The guests were to be seated along the sides of the red carpet. The Master of Ceremony was standing at the front with a microphone in hand and waiting for the bride and groom to arrive.
Staring at the crowd of guests, Ling Ciye was surprised to find that Jin Qingyan was not around.
What was going on?
Little did Ling Ciye know, Jin Qingyan was still trying to placate Gu Xiaoning at home. He only began to rush to the venue when the wedding had already commenced.
After parking the car, Jin Qingyan strode in quickly. He heard the sounds of celebration as soon as he entered the courtyard.
Upon arriving at the guest area, a figure caught his attention.
While walking towards his seat, he kept his eyes fixed on the figure, which he found to be strangely familiar. However, he still did not manage to catch a glimpse of her face in the end.
Just as he sat down beside Ling Ciye, the latter gave him a smack and said, ”My goodness, why are you so late?”
”Tianze didn't allow me to bring Xiaoning and I had a hard time coaxing her. Thankfully I made it in time.” Jin Qingyan paused his speech and pointed at the figure before asking, ”Who's that?”
”Can't you tell from her silhouette?” Ling Ciye asked softly.
Jin Qingyan squinted and said, ”She looks really familiar.”
”She's An Xiaoning.”
”… Who?”
”An Xiaoning.”
Jin Qingyan turned his head to the side and stared at Ling Ciye seriously. ”Who did you say it was!?!”
”Your lover, An Xiaoning. She's still alive. I'm the groomsman and she's the bridesmaid. She was supposed to be sitting here, but the bride wanted An Xiaoning to keep her company. That's why she's standing there now.”
Jin Qingyan stood up slowly, after which his legs turned jelly all of a sudden, perhaps because he was overwhelmed with agitation. ”Calm down!” exclaimed Ling Ciye, who quickly supported him.
”Is this a new clone version that I'm not aware of?”
Jin Qingyan sat down to speak to Ling Ciye, who thought he was going to rush forward straight away.
