C73 (1/2)

After Zhu Ying finished narrating the story of how she met Lin Danshuang and the big drug lord 007, she suddenly broke free from my embrace and said with an excited expression: ”Gu, Sister Ying has finally come to this day!”

Pausing for a moment, he raised his head to look at the sky and sighed, ”Tomorrow, Yingzi will go capture a big drug lord. Let's hold a wedding tonight!”

Zhu Ying's words came out so abruptly that I was stunned. I stared at her blankly and asked, ”Sister Ying, what did you say? A wedding? ”What wedding is it …”

Zhu Ying smiled and walked to the pavilion on the third floor. She opened the door and lit the lamp, then looked at me and said, ”Gu Zi, carry me into the house!”

I didn't pick Zhu Ying up, but stared at him in a daze.

The wedding! What a maddening moment that was!

Since ancient times, both Chinese and foreigners have taken this once-in-a-lifetime ritual seriously.

Riding in a bridal sedan chair, riding on a big horse, wearing a red robe and playing drums, waiting for the guests to arrive, taking their heads off and entering the bridal chamber with the bridesmaid; that was a Chinese wedding.

Wearing a wedding dress, riding in a carriage, entering the church, the priest tapped his forehead. It was a Western wedding.

The world is almost the same now, Chinese and Western weddings are softening, but the guests are full of red fire, the atmosphere is still the main character.

But Zhu Ying and I's wedding... The two of us were like lonely geese who had fallen behind; like cars that had broken down; like a lone boat drifting in the vast ocean; like a single shadow, with only the stars in the sky and the fireflies on the ground to accompany us … Why is that? Why did Zhu Ying do this? She wanted to possess me so much that she hurried through the dark to have a secret wedding! I was a little excited and a little sad. I couldn't help but silently recite a poem by Du Fu in my mind: Challin Ma Xiaoxiao, the pedestrian bow and arrow at each side of her waist, Yenniang Wife walking and sending off, Dust not seeing the Aral Sun Bridge …

I rummaged about in my mind for a moment and then leaned into the room and looked around; a look of excitement I had never felt before had washed away the sadness.

I saw in the house, no, it should be the villa's first-floor living room luxurious set-up - wow! The huge living room had long been decorated with magnificent wedding scenes.

The wedding stage was simple but dignified, with a scarlet curtain symbolizing good fortune in the background. Above the curtain was a large double sign and a cross-stitch heart.

Beneath the cross-stitch heart knot are a few pots of delicate flowers — lilies, roses, chrysanthemums, evergreen.

The flowers were on the wedding platform, and in front of them was the road, which was also covered with red carpets; the red carpet was strewn with fresh flowers of different colors.

On either side of the road was a circular arch, with a few pots of roses that gave off the solemn atmosphere of the arch; above the arch were garlands and balloons.

The villa was a three-storey duplex with red carpets on the stairs and a warm carnations on either side.

I was stunned, my mind in a whirl; from the way the wedding had been arranged, it was not a day or two, but a day of continuous preparation.

Could it be that the reason Zhu Ying went all out to set up the wedding ceremony in the villa was because she wanted to hold the wedding ceremony with me?

I can't believe it's true, why did Zhu Ying do this? How did he know I was coming? Or was there another reason that was unclear …

I had attended the teacher's wedding at the five-star hotel, and the setting had been very proper; the stage set, the red carpet, the petals, the bubble machine, the wiring board, the calligraphy on the wall, the back of the chair, the wedding photos, the cup of tea with the lid, the matches for smoking, the pen for signing.

During the wedding, you need to work with the audio master to switch on the lights, deliver the wedding ring to the bride, and hand the flowers to the bride.

Our wedding venue was no less decorated than Teacher's wedding, but it was less popular.

No matter what, I have to accept Zhu Ying's effort. Having no reputation is nothing, only the two of us can reflect the intimacy of our relationship.

As I said this in my heart, I couldn't help but burst into tears. So Zhu Ying had long seen me as her other half, and had painstakingly arranged the wedding scene in her residence. Is there such a thing in the world? If there was no Zhu Ying, this would be the first time!

I foolishly rolled my eyes in my eye socket and thought: What if I don't come? Wasn't all of Zhu Ying's effort wasted?

The heavens told me to rush over to the Inda Road Plaza Street to support Sima Lin and Chen Erpu.

I didn't see Zhu Ying at the primary school in Tong Village, and a turning point actually appeared at the university for the past four years!

If there was no turning point, Zhu Ying's hard work and preparation would have been for naught.

But she didn't seem to care about the emptiness, as if she were fulfilling a wish; making her dream come true.

As expected, after Zhu Ying prepared the marriage ceremony, I came to visit. Zhu Ying was extremely excited, which was why she made this series of actions tonight.

Amen! Amitabha! Immeasurable Swordmaster! Excellent!

Was this too much of a coincidence? Coincidences happen all the time, everywhere!
